Catalyst System
The Return of the System and the Abandoned World
Fifteen years have passed, and the punishment as forced labor has stopped. Now, Veroa is immediately transferred to the Abandoned World, a world that no one takes care of. This world contained only monsters and demons that were banished from the Garden of Heaven. The barren and endless plains, the blood-red sky, the motionless moon and the dark blue color were extremely intimidating, the occasional wind blowing fiercely and bringing about an extremely chaotic storm.
Veroa appeared and fell from the sky. The gravitational force here is ten times the gravitational force of the Cosmic World. Magic energy mixed with a very thick negative aura, intelligent living things would not be able to last long to be able to maintain their consciousness. A lost beast will become a monster, while a human will become a demon. It had no effect on the mentally and soul Veroa that had been forged in the Garden of Heaven and Hell. Moreover, his soul and body had the protection of the Catalyst System. As his feet touched the barren ground, the momentum of the collision ensued and the impact was quite devastating.
Behind the dust of – scattered dust, a fairly large hole is faintly visible. Slowly, the wind carried away the dust and a human figure not wearing a cloth was standing gallantly in the middle of a half-ball shaped hole.
From the first punishment, his clothes had been destroyed. Not even a hundred times his body was split in two, he had been naked. Fortunately, the incident was not only he who was naked, – people who had died were the same, no one wore it on his body. So, in this place of seclusion, he should be able to survive without any body armor.
The system screen suddenly appears and displays a text message containing an apology, because during the punishment period from the first to the second, the system never appears.
Seeing the reemergence of the system, Veroa felt relieved and smiled. He said, “What's wrong, System. I know, maybe before it was still a hypothesis, but ‘System is hiding its existence from the Gods’, is not it?”
The system also displays a screen that contains a smile emoticon, then replaced with a text message, “Thank you”
Then, proceeding with the second prize, he chose the gift of the innate type of talent. Everyone had determined his innate talent and what surprised him about Veroa was that he had no innate talent, but he was a genius. It was true, the fact behind the geniuses in the Cosmic World was that they did not possess any innate talent, as their innate talent was this genius. But, since this innate talent was not very visible, it was not put into the category of innate talent. The innate talent of genius, allows the perpetrator to learn very quickly. Well, for Veroa, the reason he chose the Unlimited Potential skill was because he was confident in his talent that he could progress so quickly. Of the many innate talents, only three appeared, namely God’s Hand, Elemental Body, and Absolute Spirit Affinity. He intended to become a soul master and a magician master. Because, to become a soul master requires supportive talent, while being a magician master anyone can do it, as long as you understand the essence of nature. Thus, he chose Absolute Spirit Affinity which made it possible for him to be able to absorb any spirit and be able to evolve very quickly.
When he was about to choose the third prize, a tiger-like beast, but in the typical tiger line pattern all over its body was a black flame that could burn everything to the end, he said, he pounced on himself who was not ready to dodge. His hands were crossed in front of his chest, intending to hold the beast's huge claws as there was indeed no other choice. Although he wanted to dodge, his body was unable to fulfill his wish.
That large claw that was accompanied by a black flame that wrapped it at the end tore the cross-cut hand to pieces. The severed hand slowly burned until it was charred and turned into ash that was blown by the wind, vanishing unceremoniously. Veroa's severed hand still left a black flame on the tip of the clawed hand and continued to spread slowly. In the same situation as dying, waiting for death to pick her up slowly, she could still think with a cold head. He thought, what should he do right now, at least he can prevent the black flames from spreading and burning his body. In addition, he also had to stay away from the monster of a tiger beast that attacked him. From the description in the book, the monster that had a beast-like shape at first, was a high-level monster. He was still weak to deal with strong monsters.
The two hands that had been broken, the body that was still weak, did not have any fighting skills, and what he needed the most was a sword or weapon to fight. Before him, that figure had just severed his hand and was a high-level monster. The distance is impossible to escape. The running speed of a tiger was extremely high when compared to a human, except for a speed-type soul master who formed a contract with a spirit that had the ultimate ability in speed. For a moment, he had wanted to give up, but given his struggles to date, he felt reluctant.
As usual, when he was fully concentrated, his thinking speed was able to exceed the current running time. His eyes were on the opponent, it was according to the hunting guidebook that the animals had a high survival instinct. One of the indicators of a tough opponent is that he is the longest able to clash views. Fortunately, this also happened to the monster before him. He was actually just betting, but unexpectedly, it worked.
The time that passed was indeed not so long, it might have only been five seconds when in the Cosmic World, but Veroa's thinking speed was thirty minutes ahead. In that short amount of time, he had made a defensive strategy, breaking free from the danger before him that was prioritized, for the black flames that were still spreading slowly, he put aside first.
