《I Reincarnated As A System?!》A True Man Should Snitch?
Advertisement
Mo Zuo was about to explain to Mo Zhi all that had happened between them, but he remembered the quest given by the system.
Mission : Do not snitch on Mo De. Reward: 15 system points.
" A true man doesn't snitch." Mo Zuo said telepathically to Jason.
"A true man may end up with much more than he can handle at times, there is nothing unmanly in snitching!" Jason recalled a memory of his former life and transmitted it to Mo Zuo.
---
In that memory a 15 year old Jason could be seen sitting by the window in class, like a typical future main character, he looked calm and at peace but his hair was quite strange. It was littered with white strands giving his hair a grey appearance.
As Mo Zuo was looking at the younger Jason, seeing the hair he felt a sense of déjà vu, 'I've seen such hair before, but where...'
The younger Jason was watching and saw a couple of his classmates harassing a younger kid.
With his head on the window Jason thought, 'Typical weaklings always running around in groups...' The harassment was getting more and more severe and they even ripped his shirt. The kids walked away laughing and Jason just thought 'Idiots...' The harassed kid tidied himself up and sat down like nothing happened.
The same scenario happened 3 more times during that week, and at a point Jason had had enough of seeing that disgusting scene. He went and stretched out his hand to the kid and helped him get up.
"Thanks..." He heard the kid weakly mutter.
Jason just silently nodded,as he was walking away he said, "You should really go tell the adults or something, your parents didn't send you here to be some play thing."
The classroom went quiet and everyone seemed to be staring at Jason, Jason looked around and was slightly confused, he was a new student there and wasn't too familiar with everyone. He quietly went back to his seat and continued reading his wuxia novel.
The kid didn't tell anyone, and it continued on for a while. Jason always had a problem with minding his business, same reason he would end up dying.
Jason hatched a plan, knowing the regular time the idiot kids kept harassing the other kid, Jason excused himself ahead of time and went to go inform a high ranked teacher that a student brought a knife to school! The teacher immediately ran over, and Jason stalled behind the teacher a bit so no one would know he was the one who informed the teacher.
As the teacher arrived he came upon the scene of the kids pushing the kid around
Seeing the sorry appearance of the child, the teacher immediately got into action and soon enough the kids were suspended.
One day as Jason was walking home he met
the couple of idiots from before, and the harassed kid was standing in front of them.
"Is it him?" One of the kids pointed at Jason.
The harassed kid looked at Jason and had a sorry expression on his face as he shook his head saying no. "No it wasn't him."
"Liar!" One of the kids said as they pushed him towards Jason.
"Everyone in class heard him say he was going to snitch!" Another kid said as they started nearing Jason.

The kid looked frightened but Jason calmly put a palm on his shoulder and smiled, "Trash like this are all weak." Jason said, feeling like a protagonist of his favorite Wuxia.
A kid threw a kick at Jason, and Jason calmly caught it, and pulled a bit, making the other guy lose his balance and fall. The other kids got angry and charged all at once at Jason, and the memory ended.
---
"Did you win?" Mo Zuo asked as his respect for Jason had suddenly increased.
"Cough cough, its not the result of the war that matters, but the reason the war was fought!" Jason replied back righteously.
"Whaaat, isn't it the other way around?" Mo Zuo was slightly confused. "And are you saying we should snitch on Mo De?"
"Mo De is a single entity, someone we can still handle by ourselves, there's no need to inform Mo Zhi for now." Jason responded.
Mo Zhi was standing there as he watched his son enter a daze, he calmly waited for him to explain what the hell was going on!
"Father, I broke through the second stage of the mamba path! I also entered the 3rd stage of the Qi gathering realm!" Mo Zuo said proudly, he heard a stifled laugh behind him, and turned around to see Ji Yue giggling, he could even slightly make out the words 'Third stage of the Qi gathering realm...and he wants to save me' Mo Zuo's face turned red in shame. He then heard a deeper laughter coming from Jason.
"Hahaha even the maiden in distress is mocking you!" Jason said as he wiped tears from his eyes.
Mo Zuo's face started glowing a brighter red in shame, but then he heard an excited voice.
"You actually broke through?! They said it will take at least four more years! How did you enter the second stage so fast?!" Mo Zhi said excitedly. Mo Zhi was one of the few members of the Mo Clan who knew the real reason why Mo Zuo had problems progressing in his training, and that was due to his bloodline!
Mo Zuo smiled, and realised the system had probably allowed him to bypass certain restrictions present in his cultivation!
"I felt something was holding me back, so I went for a secret journey into the forest to sharpen my skills, and gain the last insight to breakthrough!" Mo Zuo said, lying with a straight face.
"Wow I'm impressed Mo Zuo, never knew you were such a good liar." Jason said as he mentally clapped.
Mo Zuo grinned and communicated with Jason, "How else do you think I managed to con all those ladies."
"Ohh this seems like an interesting story, you must share later on." Jason's interest was piqued.
"Your former life shouldn't be too shabby, I'd like to see more stories too." Mo Zuo said smiling.
Mo Zhi was looking at his son beaming with pride, what useless half blood! The Long clan was wrong! Mo Zhi looked towards the sky and smiled, Long Na, do you see our child will be a true dragon!
Mo Zhi turned back and faced the two, he conjured a green Qi wind, and slowly lifted them up as he too soared in the sky.
"Woahhhh!!!!" Both Jason and Mo Zuo said at the same time!

"We are flying!!!! Like really flying!!!!" Mo Zuo communicated to Jason.
"I know, I know!!" Jason said extremely excited, how many times had he fantasized about flying in the sky like the ancient cultivators!
The trio, plus the invisible Jason, soared in the sky and slowly headed back to the Mo clan, on their way they encountered two figures soaring towards them.
"Ji Yan!!!" The smaller figure dressed in white called out to his daughter. This was Ji Yao the head of the Ji clan!
"Father!" Ji Yue called back.
'Ji Yan? Did the author of this book make a typo?' Jason wondered.
Mo Zhu who was heading over paused for a bit as he saw Mo Zhi holding Mo Zuo, he began to wonder if the Mo Zuo had already told him anything, 'but why does Mo Zhi seem so happy' he thought?
"Brother! Mo Zuo has broken through!" Mo Zhi shouted!
"Oh that's nice..., wait he broke through." Mo Zhu said shocked! He carefully inspected Mo Zuo, and saw the serpent bloodline had truly being further unlocked!
"How?!" Mo Zhu said shocked, 'So that explains Mo Zhi's good mood, but how on earth? Did all the blood loss slightly purify his blood? But that's bulls#$t, then wouldn't it be so easy to activate dormant bloodlines?' Countless silly thoughts ran through Mo Zhu's mind.
"Haha, it seems our Mo clan's blood isn't a useless old padlock which would tie down our progeny for the rest of his life!" Mo Zhi said with a petty smile on his face as he thought of his detestable brother-in-law!
'That's a really oddly specific sentence...' Jason and Mo Zuo both wondered.
"Congratulations nephew! The path forward is much clearer now! Remind me to get you a reward when you get back!" Mo Zhu said sincerely.
"Thank you Uncle!" Mo Zuo replied!
---
Back in the Mo Clan, Ji Yao and Mo Zhi were sitting together in a room.
"I sincerely than you for this huge favor Brother Mo Zhi." Ji Yao said while kowtowing.
The Ji clan had taken a trip all the way to the Mo clan, precisely for this matter!
"No need for all that Clan Head Ji, I've already requested six of my close friends to come assist me in making the life renewal fluid. In less than 30 days of soaking in the fluid, Ancestor Ji should be able to overcome this ailment!" Mo Zhi said confidently, while he may not be as powerful as his twin brother, Mo Zhi was extremely confident in his alchemy skills!
Ji Yao felt more confident on hearing that Mo Zhi would be supported, the resources required by a mid stage sky realm expert was astounding, and not something that a single Mo Zhi could handle.
"You paid quite the expensive price, even one of your slots, to 'that' place, is enough to purchase a sizeable army!" Mo Zhi responded while smiling. Imagining the heights Mo Zuo could reach if he could cultivate there, the Long clan would be begging to accept him once Mo Zuo returned!
"Ancestor Ji was originally the one who earned the slots, using it to prolong his life is only right." Ji Yao replied humbly.

Mo Zuo looked through the system store and saw his reward. it was a skill book which let him level up instantly to the minor achievement proficiency, in any skill.

"Why are there so few stats?" Mo Zuo asked Jason.
"The system is not omniscient, it needs something to reference off from, the more knowledge you acquire the better it is for you." Jason explained, "For example if you wanted the minor achievement skill in swordsmanship, you would need basic swordsman knowledge, or the price will be sky high. And for pills and so on, you need to have basic herbs on you which the system can work on to transform it into the heaven defying pills you would need."
"Wow, so this is how gaining skills was in Dao Seeker right, the player didn't need to actually know how to use a sword in real life, but just tutoring by swordsmen the player was able to level up his swords skills." Mo Zuo noticed.
Jason kept quiet and realised that part was a bit similar to the game he designed.
"True true, but now that we are in this world why don't we head to the Clan's library and gain more knowledge?" Jason suggested.
Mo Zuo nodded his head in acknowledgement and walked out of his living quarters, looking back at his current house, be couldn't help but feel the old Mo Zuo was quite lucky, 'a house all to yourself at just 16! And with your own staff!

"Big brother! Big brother! Big news! He came back!" Mo De interrupted Mo Xi.
Mo Xi was balancing upside down on a bamboo stick, with a long sword in his mouth, a serving girl would occasionally toss an apple and Mo Xi would attempt to slice it into bits.
Looking at the perfectly untouched apples on the floor, it seemed Mo Xi wasn't doing too well.
"Is it Mo Zuo? I already know." Mo Xi said slightly irritated.
"No. I mean Mo Fen, he came back."

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.2
Technically abandoned. I will be reposting an updated version of the story one chapter at a time. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.

The Solstice Wars
In the grey-cloaked cityscape of modern London, student William Whiteswift has two secrets: the Fae walk among humanity, and they are just as vulnerable as us. His childhood was filled with them; they spawned nightmares and episodes, dreams and obsessions. The nightmares remain, of course, but the fae are his normal. Now, he heals them, for William is gifted. When he saves a faerie -- a humanoid fae -- from an injury he can’t explain, William is forced to let her stay. Finally, he may have taken on more than he can handle; Ainsel could uproot his life in seconds. Instead, she cracks a Pandora’s box of mysteries: someone just flipped her home on its head. And because of that, she did something unspeakable. And somehow, she doesn’t want to hurt him. The longer she stays, though, the crueler his nightmares grow. Worse, governments hide secrets, too: they know of faeries. To them, all fae are monsters fueled by solstices and equinoxes. As the autumn equinox approaches, the culling agency COURT hurries to track Ainsel down. With teams across the United Kingdom and Ireland -- iron-strong despite the region’s history -- they are nearing success. A world away, their country wounded, the faerie leaders hunger for justice. In the looming shadows of war and of Ainsel’s mistake, can a human and a faerie protect each other against their own kind? Could their plight mend rifts between bitter nations and bitterer people? Or will it, like past attempts at peace, shatter? Quick note! I hope you all enjoy the Irish (Irish Gaelic) words here and there! All are defined or explained within the text. This is my chance to show off speaking it at least somewhat decently. Still learning. ;D -K
