《World Integration》Chapter 22: Sponsorship
Advertisement
During the training session, Trung Lee and Albert Lee had exchanged countless blows with each other. It first started off as a couple of punches, then it became ten, twenty, thirty, and eventually it gradually grew to well over a hundred blows.
Ding!
The sound of the system notification ringing inside of Albert Lee's head, as a blue screen panel then appears in front of him, detailing his progress.
(!) System Notification Skill proficiency has reached a designated degree! The skill {Basic Punching Mastery Lv.21} has levelled up and become {Basic Punching Mastery Lv.22}! (!) System Notification Skill proficiency has reached a designated degree! The skill {Basic Hand To Hand Combat Lv.17} has levelled up and become {Basic Hand To Hand Combat Lv.18}! (!) System Notification Skill proficiency has reached a designated degree! The skill {Basic Kicking Mastery Lv.10} has levelled up and become {Basic Kicking Mastery Lv.11}!
Pain then wrecks throughout his entire body, pushed to brink of almost passing out. As his arms are aching sore, covering in still forming purple patches of bruises.
So whenever he moved any part of his arm for a bit, he would then immediately be assaulted with a sharp stabbing pain that is akin to the feeling of having a needle stabbing into your arm.
A fountain of droplets are formed atop his forehead, and is slowly dripping down the side of his cheeks. As Albert Lee is panting heavily and out of breath.
His back is completely covered in sweat, with his t-shirt being extremely moist and wet, soaking up and saturating the t-shirt cloth fibre in Albert Lee's body sweat.
On the contrary, Trung Lee came out of the sparring session relatively unscathed, when compared to the numerous injuries that Albert Lee had incurred during the fight.
It was thanks to the 4th Layer of the Qi Condensation Stage cultivation base, that had made his skin become slightly tougher and more resistant to blunt force and external damage.
The sparring session lasted well over half a hour, with Albert Lee almost always on the offensive and leaving his father Trung Lee with very few little options to retaliate back.
With his lightning fast punches and random kicks that made his attack pattern irregular and hard to predict. Relying upon the user's fast reactions speed and trained reflexes to counter against Albert Lee's attacks.
And whenever Trung Lee had managed to land a successful blow upon Albert Lee's body. The feeling is like having your body getting hit by an ongoing fast car, as your entire body is shakened to the very core by the impact.
Though the injuries are not life threatening. It would take literal weeks or even days to heal and completely recuperate to near perfect health.
And due to Albert Lee's {Electromancer} class, his electric manipulation ability has somehow enable him to recover slightly faster than an average human being.
The cells within his human body are being effected and strengthened by his electric manipulation ability, thereby increasing its short lived lifespan and tenacity, enabling it to resist against foreign bacteria and viruses.
The red blood cells within his human body has absorbed some of his electricity and has steadily adapted to this new change. And it stored some of this electricity withinside its cell body, like psuedo battery.

And whenever a foreign virus had managed to enter Albert Lee's body, and then made contact with Albert Lee's red blood cells. The electricity would thereby be released shocking the foreign virus, and giving the white blood cells ample enough time to locate and destroy the foreign virus.
And that is if the foreign life form is able to withstand being shock at a constant interval by Albert Lee's electricity withinside his body.
'I really hoped that I don't get a lot of bruises the very next day, but looks on the bright side. This sort of training and real life combat will definitely help strengthen my very foundations.' Albert Lee thought so to myself, as he then slowly moved his tired body around.
Albert Lee then slowly drags his tired body and fall over onto Trung Lee's bed on his back.
"Hey, you're gonna dirty my bed's blanket sheet with your dirty body sweat!" Trung Lee shouted at Albert Lee, lecturing him, but he then ignores it.
The words that spoke out from Trung Lee's mouth had entered his ears, but then immediately exits through the other, having gone unnoticed by him.
'I wondered how much my stats and combat evaluation has grown since yesterday. The last time that I've checked it.' Albert Lee thought so to myself as he then stares aimlessly at the ceiling above.
'Status!' Albert Lee then recited the keyword inside of his head in order to open up his status screen.
A blue screen interface then pops up appearing in front of him.
Status Screen Name: Albert E. Lee Age: 19 Gender: Male Race: Human Level: 001 Main Class: {Electromancer} Subclass: N/A Guild: N/A Affiliations: N/A Hidden Aliases: Combat Potential: 52 Grade: F Titles: {Otaku}{NEET}{Friend of Loki} Stats/Attributes Health Point: 24/24 Hunger Point: 34/34 Stamina Point: 26/42 Energy Point: 32/78 Strength: 6 Intelligence: 8 Agility: 7 Wisdom: 11 Endurance: 11 Willpower: 7 Defence: 4 Perception: 6 Dexterity: 9 Charm: 2 Vitality: 5 Luck: 4 Spirit: 19 Fame: 25 0 Unallocated Stats Points System Store Points: 0
After having quickly skim through the contents of his status screen, Albert Lee then immediately discovers that his stats has grown slightly and his combat evaluation has risen.
'My combat evaluation has just about double the original value it had yesterday.' Albert Lee thought.
For people in particular that possesses the esper classes, the strength and abilities would naturally grow with the more you use them.
However, a specific group of individuals within the selective group of espers have more earlier on advantage than others. For instance, Samir Sahid's older sister Aisha Sahid had the {Psychomancer} class.
The ability to control objects and move them with your mind seems a bit difficult at first, but for a mentally developed individual the control over the psychokinesis ability is alot more manageable, as the brain has fully developed by then enabling more precise control of the psychokinesis.
And for Albert Lee's case, the {Electromancer} class is capable of continuously growing stronger at an alarming rate.
The {Electromancer} class is capable of manipulating and generating electricity.
Humans possess traces of elements like sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium within our bodies. And they have a specific electrical charge. Almost all of our human cells can use these charged elements, called ions, to generate electricity.
It's not to say that the {Electromancer} class is the strongest type within esper category, but more like the fastest type to grow your strength.

So Albert Lee's body has been constantly utilising the charged ions within his body to slowly generate electrical power, and gradually improve his reserve of energy.
But, if Albert Lee really wanted to skip the entire process. He could directly absorb the electricity from a nearby power source in order to rapidly increase his strength, which would certainly consume alot of electrical power.
And after a while, Albert Lee could instinctively feel the wet t-shirt that is saturated with his body sweat, clinging onto his body, thereby irritating him quite a bit.
'I really need a bath.' Albert Lee thought, having made up his mind, he decided to go along with it.
"I'm gonna take a shower first to get rid of the sweat on my body." Albert Lee said so towards Trung Lee.
As Trung Lee then looks into Albert Lee's particular direction for a sec, nodding his slightly, and said. "Okay then." Before returning back to his phone.
Albert Lee then immediately gets up from the bed, as then bounces back onto his feet, and slowly made his way towards the bathroom.
Afterwards, Albert Lee then struggles slightly to take his t-shirt off, as he was pretty exhausted after the fight. And wet t-shirt that is currently clinging to his skin does also not help as well.
He then takes his shorts off and then immediately gets into the bath tub, and turn on the shower tab.
Warm water began to rapidly flow out from the shower sprinkler head, cascading over his entire body, as the water start to slowly warm up.
Albert Lee took his time to slowly clean the dirty body sweat off from his body. And he also took his time to leisurely shampoo, clean, and wrinse his hair as well.
After the hot steaming shower was done, and his body was thoroughly cleaned. Albert Lee then steps out from the bath tub and onto the bath mat, as he reaches his hand out to grab a hold of the bath towel that is located on the opposite side of the bathroom.
Ding!
It was then that Albert Lee heard the ringing sound of the system notification inside of his, as a blue screen panel then appears in front of him, thereby shocking him.
That was a brilliant fight. You had there with your father. It was almost like it was straight out from a kungfu movie. Though your fighting skill is alot to differ, at least you made for your short comings with speed and precise attacks.
{Loki, The God of Mischief and Chaos} spoke to Albert Lee through the system interface.
The suddenness of Loki's message conveyed by the system interface had completely caught Albert Lee by surprised, that he almost dropped his own bath towel by accident.
After quickly reading through the context of the message, one word then crossed his mind.
'Loki?' Albert Lee thought.
That's right. Who else but me would actually speak to you through the system interface...
And then a thought suddenly crossed Albert Lee's mind, one that he couldn't help but asked Loki, The God of Mischief and Chaos directly.
"So did you actually see me butt naked, whilst I was busy taking a quick shower to wash off the sweat on my body." Albert Lee said and Loki then immediately responded to Albert Lee's enquiry, almost like he had already expected.
Yes I could see you, but do not worry as the system interface is able to directly censored out the visual image of the naked human genitals by pixelating parts of the image.
Having grown curious over the matter, he couldn't but asked Loki a question. "But how are you able to see us."
Since the Old Gods are not able to directly interfere with the physical world because of strong innate divine power that could literally shaped the world as they like. We resolved ourselves to watch the human inhabitants of Earth from a distance, until the world is strong enough to bare the force of our innate divine powers so that we can fully materialised into the physical world.
And another option is for us to completely sealed our innate divine powers so that we can directly enter the mortal world, which is an option that which most powerful Old Gods would not usually take.
"Oh..." Albert Lee uttered, slightly surprised over the matter at hand.
And also take this as a parting gift from me, as your fight and sparring session with your father was at least enjoying to watch.
Ding!
Albert Lee then heard the sound of the system notification, as a blue screen panel then appears in front of him.
(!) System Notification You have been sponsored by the Norse God [Loki, The God of Mischief and Chaos]! 100 system points has been successfully added to the player's bank account!
"What!" Albert Lee uttered, surprised about what he just saw.
The Old Gods that have now legitimately become World Administrators are directly connected to the Universal System that is known as Yggdrassil, based upon the mythology of the great world tree.
Whilst, being directly connected to Universal System as a World Administrators. They would receive a near endless amounts of system points that are constantly being generated by the World Tree.
So whenever they witness something spectacular or something noticeably enjoying, they can donate some system points to the participant or star of the show in the form of a sponsorship. Kind of like a endorsement or prize money in your world.
"That is kind of amazing." Albert Lee said, with somewhat amazed look. "So who is the one that created this idea and feature for the system."
Well, one of the Korean Pantheon Gods who is incredibly interested and infatuated with the mortal world suggested the idea, whilst the Japanese Shinto Gods is actually the one that actually implanted into the features into the Universal System.
"Well, that is not really a great surprise considering how amazingly gifted the Japanese people and the Koreans are in today's modern media." Albert Lee said, with a slight reverence within his tone of voice.
You don't really know how popular the Japanese Shinto Gods have grown, when compared to the other pantheon Gods due to modern day media and internet fame.
The Norse mythology is the sole exception to this cause as it has been due to widely popular fictional piece of arts and fictions that we are more wide known to this very day.
