249 Favour Points
“So?” I started to get a better understanding of Sith’s actions.
“I can give you quests, but mostly five per day.”
“Only five… That’s not enough at all!” I frowned before asking, “how can we increase this quota then?”
“I have an intermediate grade as a god,” he helplessly sighed, “back in my good days, I could issue up to a hundred quests per day for my people. Yet I lack anyone to support at this moment. In fact you are going to be my first sponsor in such a long time.”
“The only one… How come?!!” I bellowed in surprise and he gave me a helpless smile.
“I planned to give up my godhood as I told you before. I can’t take this step if I have a single person under my support. So…”
I got his point. “I have five without any gods at the moment,” I hurriedly said, “adding these to you will help, right?”
“Not that much,” he sighed, “I can only hope to raise the system’s evaluation of me by your deeds. This will bring me, eventually, one favour point, enough to raise my current evaluation and make me issue many more quests to you.”
“Favour points? You mean system favour points?!” I couldn’t help myself and stood up while asking in disbelief.
I had seven favour points, things I never cared for before. I thought they were just useless tools, only used to grant me heroic calling or allow me to speak to system higher ups.
“Not the system, it’s favour points for the system higher ups… Are you familiar with them?” he asked and I only blinked twice before saying:
“Didn’t you know? I already have favour points!” I said in doubt, “Didn’t you watch me getting these things before?”
“Hmm… I know that but I didn’t want to take them away from you.” He seemed a bit restless and I didn’t know why he thought this way. After all these points weren’t this precious to me. I shrugged as I said:
“You can get my points if you want… After all, I got the heroic calling reward that I wanted.”
“Are you sure of that?” he asked before adding in a more serious tone, “You know they can be used to obtain a heroic calling.”
“I have enough callings for now,” I wasn’t showing off or faking it. I had three unused heroic callings.
I planned to use one to inspire humans using the two videos I once recorded about my battles. I also intended to use another when I established the communication system for humankind.
The third would be a spare one, used only in times of great emergencies.
So what if I had to wait for more time and store up more favour points again? I once managed to get them, and also I could get more if I wanted. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“How much favour points do you need to raise the system estimation of you?” I asked while hoping my favourite points would be enough.
“Well… I can’t say a certain number as the more the better,” he suddenly acted shameless and greedy. I frowned, furrowed my brows as he hurriedly added: “Joking… Was just joking, hahaha!”
I knew for sure he let his greed out for a brief moment there. “Can you live with one?” I said while examining his expression.
“I can, a single favour point is enough to make me give you double the quests daily.”
“Double?” I frowned before asking, “how much do you need to give me a hundred fold more quests?”
“This…” he showed his struggle before adding, “I can’t give that much with favour points alone. The most I can do is twenty folds with ten favour points.”
“So one point gives double the quests?” I asked and he nodded.
I had seven favourite points. That meant I could give him five and have ten folds the current amount. He said he could give me ten quests daily as max, so I could get one hundred quests on a daily basis.
Wait… did that mean I’d end up having two favour points? One point away from a heroic calling? Damn! This would also help me and save one favour point.
“One question though,” At first I was thinking of doing all these quests on my own, so excited that I forgot that I didn’t have time for that.
But as things went to this point, I had to think rationally about this. “Can I assign other people to do my tasks for me?”
“Assign?” he gave me a weird look, “do you mean letting other people do your quests?”
“I just don’t have much time to waste on doing these quests,” I honestly said and he just stared at me for a few moments before breaking out in laughter.
“If you want to assign tasks like walking, talking, and even sleeping and eating to someone else then it’s fine.”
I looked at him and at this moment, I didn’t know why his old image overlapped with his younger one. It seemed like even after abandoning his godhood, this old angel didn’t lose his personality.
“I’d prefer to give the hundred quests all at the same time so I can assign people to finish them fast,” I knew he wouldn’t be that easy to handle in regards to quests. Just the quest of coming each day and listening to his tales took long hours per visit.
I feared he would just give me one quest at a time, or just give me weird quests like running around for a couple hours or even walking from one city to another or something crazy like that.
“A hundred? Does that mean…”
“Yes, I’ll give you five favour points to use,” I said before adding, “this will give ten folds the quests you can give to me per day, right?”
“Indeed,” he nodded, “but that… It’s five favour points… Do you know how many decades can a god wait to get just a single point of these?”
