Chapter 9 Resolve
Therefore, Ray did not head outside and instead conversed with Aurora.
Hence he spoke,
“Hey Aurora, are you there?”.
To which she responded, Yeah! I am here what do you want to ask “
Surprisingly, this time Aurora’s voice sounded quite energetic, which left Ray baffled for a second.
“Huh!!”, Umm… So I wanted to ask you about something”
“Yeah shoot”,
Indeed!!, Aurora is quite approachable, unlike, last time when she outright rejected to speak to him or either sounded too lazy or grumpy to answer him.
Little did Ray know that Aurora was always an upright & bright person while the reason she replied to Ray grumpily was that she wanted Ray not to rely on her & get stronger by using his fists and no shortcuts.
Then Ray simply asked,
“Well…, could you show me my improvements and detailed information about every reward or experience point I gained since ” Ray then nervously added, ” Moreover, if you don’t want to then it’s okay, just tell me how to do so and I will do it myself”.
Listening to Ray’s reply and request along with the alteration,
Aurora giggled like a child, “ke ke ke….”, She was amused by the change in his tone and realized that her earlier behavior towards him may be the cause of such tone and might have made Ray afraid of her.
Therefore, she thought that in a way she would make her & Ray’s relationship a bit better as she was his system after all and they would need to cooperate and trust each other without hesitation soon when they both would have to work together as a single existence.
Thus, she replied, “Oh! don’t worry about doing anything, I will just tell you a summarized report of everything you obtained as system rewards”.
Ray thought that Aurora was acting a bit strange however he nodded to her without much hassle as Aurora was indirectly making things much easier for him. Moreover, he waited in anticipation while Aurora started to narrate,
” You obtained a total of 2500 exp for killing 5 basic tiered beasts along with a total of 1000 bonus exp for the first kill. Other than that you gained a 1000 exp for completion of a hidden quest for defeating the pseudo-intermediate wolf alpha along with 1500 exp for killing it as a bonus and 500 exp for completing the quest from the guildΒ΄s Association. Therefore, you received a total of 6500 exp until then. Other than that, you received 500 more exp for completing the second task of the system-related mission, therefore you reached level 10.
“Hmmm!” & are there any other rewards”.
Ray pondered for a moment & asked.
To which Aurora naturally replied, “Yes! Along with all that, your slash skill leveled up to reach level 4 while block managed to level up to level 3 while ‘parry’ leveled once as well.
Moreover, your magic skills leveled up twice and you obtained 5 skill points that you could use to learn new skills”
Ray was ecstatic with the things Aurora was telling him but just as he was about to chime in to say something Aurora interrupted him by saying,
“Oh Yeah’, You also leveled up your abilities twice. And don’t forget to check out all of the changes & have a test session to get used to the changes and your ever-increasing strength”. With it, Aurora stopped speaking and went silent.
While Aurora went silent, Ray once again expressed his thanks to her and thought of testing his power some time as his strength has went from being a mere level 1 to a whopping level 10 within a few hours and if that wasn’t enough, his skills also upgraded along with the fact that he could currently use 3 abilities, had control over two destructive magical affinities and had 2 intermediate beast souls as well.
In short, right now Ray was invincible against any basic tier being in a one-on-one confrontation if he went all out and revealed all of his trump cards.
Thus, Ray knew that it was now time for him to increase his power and also to carefully plan his next steps.
Ray thought for a while and a glint flashed within his eye while he reached out to his computer to check the latest gold to dollar conversion rates.
Then he saw that,
One bronze coin = one dollar,
One silver coin = hundred dollars,
And lastly,
One gold coin = one thousand dollars.
The last conversion made Ray very happy to be able to gain 1000 dollars for a single gold coin meant that Ray could exchange a total of fifteen gold coins for fifteen thousand dollars and help his family’s condition improve tremendously.
Therefore, Ray thought of going to the bank tomorrow to exchange his gold coins for U.S dollars.
—————————————————————-
Although, “System Online” had changed the world and humanity evolved
beyond thought, some things such as banks, governments & many organizations had not changed.
However, this did not mean that life got easier for those who had little strength or did not play ‘System Online’ or just did jobs such as working in a shop or doing minor things that did not require tremendous amounts of strength as they were ridiculed & mocked by upper echelons of the society who were mostly people that got to their position by getting stronger in System Online.
After Ray was done with the gold coins, he opened up an online site that dealt with buying & selling beast cores while they also had many auction houses in System online.
Then, Ray proceeded to search for a pseudo-intermediate tier beast core. However, he found no result for his search as he knew that this would happen because pseudo-tier beast cores were very rare & were only sold at auction houses due to the countless amounts of things that could be used and also for the various benefits they provided.
Moreover, they could be used to upgrade beast souls from a lower grade to a higher grade & also many important treasures could o be made by using pseudo-tier cores in them.
Hence, Ray thought of visiting an auction house while in the game to auction the pseudo-intermediate tier beast core.

Then he stood up & opened the door of his room
”Creak !!!,π§ππ£ππ΅π«πxt.πΈππ
Ray stepped out of his room & traveled downstairs with a smile on his face as his thoughts wandered off to providing and helping his family while inwardly thanking & being grateful to Aurora for all of the things that she did for him.
Moreover, he could have never achieved what he did so far without the help of the system. Therefore, he did not even mind Aurora’s grumpy side at all.
Then, as Ray went downstairs and reached the ground floor,
a cute little girl around the age of 10 came and hugged him tight with apparent joy on her face while she said, “Welcome back brother!!, how did your day go?”.
A smile bloomed upon Ray’s face as he heard his sister’s voice and hugged her back while deep inside, he steeled his resolve to help his family even more and decided to fight even the heaven for sake of his family”.
Rumble!!! ,
Thunder crackled amidst Ray’s thoughts as if appreciating or fearing his resolve, however, no one seemed to notice it as at the moment, a motherly voice sounded and said to Ray,
“Welcome back son, hope your day went well. You must be hungry so come sit and let’s eat while the food is warm”.
