Ketor sat up straighter on the bed.
“ok system, what are the new functions?”
“Before all else, you should fully understand what the primal will system entails. The primal will system is a void level entity; its main objective is to help its host achieve wholesomeness or in other words perfection in any given path. However, that is just my most basic function. The true perk, is the ability to retrace.’’
“retrace? What does that mean?”
“it’s a unique function, which when activated reveals the true form and meaning of anything in its prime form.’’
“I don’t understand. what do you mean by true form and meaning?”
“every single thing in existence is a record, no matter whether it exists in the past, present or future. Retrace is overpowered in the sense that you can use it to see anything in its barest state. In simpler terms, you can gaze at the essence of anything that has no divinity.’’
Ketor had a shocked expression on his face. If what the system said was true, then the implications of such an ability was incredible. This basically made him immune to illusions and any form of falsehood. With this he could even tell apart a founder from a human without the help of any device.
“Such an amazing ability has to have a lot of drawbacks, right? I mean this is simply crazy!’’

“As a void level entity, limitations are nonexistent for me. The only drawback is that the host’s soul is too weak at the moment to fully utilize all my functions. get stronger and such limitations will also cease to exist for you,''
ketor wasnt sure but he thiought he could detect a condesceding tone in the system's voice. he gave a wry smile, He was well aware of his weakness and he wanted to change that.
" System how would i fare against an awakened human?''
“Awakening as human’s call it, is a defensive mechanism by the planet’s will, which seeks to strengthen the primary species in order to protect itself in times of catastrophic events. This action, overdrafts its vitality by offering aether, to awaken innate abilities in a few select people. With your level 5 stats you would only hold on for a minute against a low level awakened. After activating your innate ability and bloodline, you would most assuredly win over a mid rank awakened.''
Ketor frowned in contemplation. He'd thought that after going up five levels and the increase in his attributes he'd put up a fight against other awakened. Initially after he'd woken up he had felt a rush of power throughout his body. It was good he had asked the system that question else he would have grown arrogant.
" Almost got conceited there. its good to know how strong i am but even more important to know how weak. I want to be powerful, so powerful that nothing will ever threaten me again.''
A hot flame started burning inside his soul. He hated being weak and now he had the power to change that. He knew that the world was bigger than he could imagine, and that made him scared but amid that fear was excitement and a burning need to stand above all.
“Ding, hidden objective fulfilled ‘fighters will’.’’
The white walls of the hospital room as well as the bed faded away and ketor found himself in a strange red space.
“Beginning the fighters conviction test. Survive for 5 minutes to pass. Failure means death.’’
Never before, had ketor despised the mechanical voice of the system.
