"Interesting! The ability to transfer power and abilities. Gravity Control and Power Transfer. Two formidable abilities born out of my imagination."
"In this case, I will not have any problem leaving this city in your hands."
Tyler nodded his head with satisfaction.
While he did make every single preparation, there was a small reluctance to leave this city.
Because he didn't have someone covering this city while he was away.
Thankfully, this problem was solved due to the Character Summoning Scroll.
"Sir, are you leaving me behind? I was born to protect you. How can I stay behind while you leave alone?" Misaka immediately retorted.
She couldn't even fathom the idea of putting the life of her creator at risk.
Tyler shook his head and said.
"No, I can handle my situation. There aren't a lot of people stronger than me where I am planning to go."
"Unless I go deeper into the Eternal Forest, I will only encounter monsters and spirits as strong as me."
"Even if they are stronger than me, so what?"
Tyler stood up and clenched his fist.
"If I retreat because of my weakness, I will remain a coward forever. I want to reach the peak of this world. No matter how dangerous it is, I will go."
He slowly smiled and continued.
"Don't worry, I am not brainless. I know what I need to do to survive. With you in the city, I can leave this place with more confidence."
Hearing that, Misaka couldn't disagree. Her existence was to listen to Tyler.
Anything he demanded must be fulfilled. She could make some changes in her process, but execution must be the same.
"Yes, Sir!"
Tyler raised his head and saw new notifications in front of him.
[New data has been downloaded]
[System upgrade has begun]
[1%....]
At the same time, the door opened and another person walked in.
When Rose saw Misaka, her body started shaking furiously. She almost gave in, but her Willpower didn't.
'No, no, Lord…. He is in danger….. I can't fall here.'
There was no Aura, but she could feel the pressure. It was intense, but her sheer Willpower kicked in, and she dashed in front of Tyler.
"My Lord, I will buy you some time. Run!"
She stood in front of his table and shouted.
[Blood Manipulation]
[Fifth Skill- Blood Lance]
As she released her ability, a large amount of blood emerged on her palm, slowly turning into a red lance.
But just as her hand moved forward, the lance instantly disappeared as if it had never been there.
"What?"
Rose stood there with utter disbelief, unable to comprehend why her ability had disappeared.
[Power Transfer]
[First Skill- Power Absorption]
At this moment, the same lance slowly dissolved into Misaka's palm.
"Rose, calm down! She is not an enemy."
While Tyler was satisfied with Rose's reaction, he still came forward to explain the situation with a simple lie.
After Rose understood the situation, she was dumbfounded.
"You mean she is one of the totems? But…. She is a human."
Tyler snorted and said.
"Then, who said I can't create humans? Aren't dragons living creatures? I can create any living creature."
That wasn't technically a lie. It wasn't possible at this stage.
To create something like a dragon, he had to practically use the energy of the Natural fruit that was comparable to ten Natural Fruits.
On top of that, he was almost bedridden after that incident because his soul couldn't bear the impact of the creation.
So, creating a human out of his ability wasn't possible. At least, not at this stage.
But that didn't stop him from using it as an excuse.
Rose turned her head towards Misaka with a complicated gaze. Although this was the creation of her lord, why did it have to be a young girl?
That question kept coming to her.
But she soon suppressed those thoughts. Although she could still feel that pressure, she no longer feared her.
Rose turned and asked.
"Sir, what is her strength?"
"Sixth Rank!"
Tyler answered.
"Sixth?"
Her eyes widened. She almost had a heart attack.
At this moment, she understood why her body reacted that way, even though Mistake didn't release any Aura.
Although she still couldn't understand why this happened, she believed it was simply due to the huge gap in strength between them.
She had successfully reached Second Rank. She could easily topple a building and destroy a man with just her physical strength.
If she used her ability, she could even destroy a small section of this city.
Her sixth skill [Blood Explosion] had that kind of power. But she was only second rank.
The woman in front of her was Sixth Rank.
Although she wasn't sure what that rank meant in power level, she knew someone like Tyler was capable of destroying this city with his physical attack.
Although it needed to be a precise attack, it was still just a physical attack.
And, at First Rank, she couldn't even destroy the reinforced concrete wall.
Because of this exact understanding, she wouldn't be surprised if this woman had the power to destroy the entire country.
Gulp!
When she thought about the power to destroy a country, she couldn't help but swallow heavily.
This was crazy. Her Lord was also crazy enough to create something like this.
Although she didn't understand how a Third Rank was able to create a Sixth Rank.
"Don't worry so much! By the way, Misaka, can you transfer that power you absorbed to me?" Tyler curiously asked.
"Yes, sir!"
Misaka nodded and raised her palm.
A red glow emerged from her palm and floated towards Tyler. When this red light touched his chest, Tyler felt a strange sensation in his mind.
He closed his eyes, and the red energy slowly passed from his chest to his palm.
As it reached his palm, it turned into a lance.
"Whoa! That was quite a feeling."
Tyler's eyes changed as he held the lance in his hand. Compared to the one held by Rose, it was a few inches short.
"So, this is the feeling of holding blood in your hand. It feels like my palm is wet, but not in the way I am familiar with."
Hearing that, Rose nodded her head and said.
"Since Blood Manipulation not only generates blood but also controls it. Most of my skills include turning blood into a solid structure."
"Since it is like freezing water into ice but without the freezing process, you can feel the wetness of the blood."
"Not only that, this blood doesn't clog."
Misaka spoke.
"Sir, that skill only lasts for a minute."
As she reminded him, the lance in his hand slowly dissipated into the air. It turned into gas as it disappeared.
"So, there is a time limit just like your other skills."
Tyler commented.
At the same time, he was reminded of the system upgrade.
[System's upgrade has been completed]
[System is booting]
[System has been restarted]

[Location Check-in- This function allows the Host to check in important places that have historical or fateful significance to the world.]

[You received Pig Farm]
At this moment, Tyler didn't receive an item. It was a memory instead.
This was a memory of him owning a Pig Farm. It was a farm that his parents bought a decade ago, and now, it was rightfully his.
This pig farm was nearly a square mile.
Tyler opened his eyes and asked.
"Rose, how is my Pig Farm?"
"Sir, it has been going well. We have sold one hundred and twenty-five kilos of everyday."
Rose replied immediately as if this were a normal situation to her.
When this happened, Tyler gulped.
He knew the system had done something heaven-defying. At least, till this moment, it had only affected him.
Now, it could even affect others.
He hadn't eaten pork for six months. He didn't like pork that much, so he rarely ever eats it.
But he easily remembered eating pork yesterday. The problem was that he didn't.
And, he knew this memory of him was right because he knew he had just received Pig Farm as a reward from the system.
If he hadn't received it, he would've perceived the thought of not eating pork yesterday as an imagination.
This was quite scary.
'This system can bend reality so easily. I wonder when I can reach that level.'
He strengthened his resolve to reach a higher level of strength. Only then could he achieve the ability to manipulate reality at his whim.
The idea of manipulating reality was nothing more than a validation of his strength and dream.
The check-in System was a cheat, and with such a cheat, he wanted to go beyond reality.
'Maybe one day I can go out of this and manipulate my own fate. But for now, I don't even know how this world truly is.'
