'What in the h*ll is this? I can't make a name for myself nor can I hog the spotlight? Isn't this system making me into a supporting character if this were a web novel? Who the h*ll in their right minds would want that? I have a system for f*cksake. Shouldn't I be the main character or something?'
'Calm down Daniel, I'm sure there's something I'm missing.'
'System, how will I be able to do things in public if it runs the risk of triggering the curse?'
[System suggests host to not worry too much and find a strong person to leech off of. You could also do things privately as long as your existence is not discovered]
'F*ck, then what's the point of becoming stronger if I can't show off? I don't want to be known as a lapdog my entire life.' I pondered a bit. 'So as long as no one knows, then I can act freely right?'
[Indeed. Even if you are disguised, you are still susceptible to the curse]
'Then what is this reward? I've never heard of curses rewarding people before.'
[By completing missions and abiding by the rules of this curse, the reward for merit points are amplified significantly]
'Missions? Why didn't you tell me sooner?'
[Mission tab will be unlocked at the age of 10]

'...'
—4 years later—
Today marks the day I become 10 years old. There wasn't anything too special. I celebrated with my parents and Sam. Sam made me a hand carved wooden necklace in the shape of a key to match his. Mother made an amazing cake like usual. Father promised to bring Sam and I out on a hunt to show us what being a "man" felt like. Sam's mom was a bit worried but she approved of it in the end.
I stayed up until midnight this time around as I was anticipating a certain gift.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations to host's tenth birthday!]
[Life Force +10]
'It seems that every time I age, my life force increases correspondingly.'
[System Achievement: Coming of Age]
[System Notification: You now have access to all functions of the system]
[Unlocking: Item Shop, Stats, Mission Tab, Inventory]
[Removed: Daily Rewards]
'What? No more daily rewards?!'
[Received: Weapon Coupon(Epic), Weapon Evolution Coupon]
It was going to be tough without the daily rewards but at least there's an actual definite way to earn Merit Points now. It looked like I no longer needed to rely on some RNG factor or my luck when it came to earning Merit Points.
'Now all that's left to do is hunt with father tomorrow...'
I soon fell asleep instead of practicing my Magic Circulation like usual.
