System," Congratulations on killing a Soul Refining Stage 1. You have gained 1,000,00 xp. You are now a Bone Refining Stage 3. The opponent has dropped 2 skills, 'World Crushing Fist' and 'Blood Lake'. Details of the two skills:
'World Crushing Fist'
Rank: C-Grade
Details: Crush the world with one fist.
Potential: Usable up to Soul Refining Realm
'Blood Lake'
Rank: ???
Details: Grants host insanely fast regeneration speed.
Would host like to learn any of these skills?"
" Yes, I would. I would like to learn 'Blood Lake'. Also, what are my current stats?"
System," 'Blood Lake' has been learned. Host's current stats:
Cultivation: Bone Refining Realm
Stage: Bone Refining Stage 3, 307,440 xp/400,000 xp
Body: Undying Body level 19
Skills:
'Blood Lake' Level 1.
Blood Essence: 0"
" It seems that 'Blood Lake' is currently level 1, that means that it can be upgraded huh? System, how am I supposed to upgrade 'Blood Lake' to the next level? Also what is Blood Essence"
System," You can use Blood Essence to level up your 'Blood Lake'. You can gain Blood Essence by absorbing the blood of other beings. The amount of Blood Essence you get from absorbing the blood is proportional to the amount of blood you absorbed and the cultivation of the being that you absorbed the blood from."
" Oh, I understand. So what I have to do is find some creatures, murder them and then absorb their blood. Sounds quite easy. Also, I nearly forgot about Fang Zhi... He was in the Soul Refining Realm, which means by absorbing his blood I'll get a crap ton of Blood Essence. Let's see how much blood essence our buddy gives..."
System," From absorbing Fang Zhi's blood, you have gained 800 blood essence."

" Spend all Blood Essence on 'Blood River'."
System," Congratulations, 'Blood River' has been upgraded to level 12. 'Blood River' has gained an additional attribute, host's body will regenerate its blood 5 times quicker. Also, you now have 20 Blood Essence remaining."
" Why did 'Blood River' gain an additional attribute?"
System," Every 10 levels, the skill gains an additional attribute. But the skill can only have one additional attribute, the host can choose whether or not to switch attributes."
" Oh, cool. What should I do now?"
System," Host is recommended to join a sect."
" A sect? How is that going to help me?"
System," A sect has many skills and treasures which can be of much use to host. Though host's body is equivalent to Soul Refining Stage 1, the host is only Bone Refining Stage 3. With the help of a sect, the host can quickly raise their cultivation to Soul Refining Realm."
" I see. But I don't know where to find a sect."
System," Though I am also unsure at the moment, I may have a way to teleport host to a place near a sect. Though if this plan fails, the host will have to wait another week for me to charge up and attempt it again."
" Alright, teleport me, buddy."
System," Ok. Remember to not resist me when I am trying to take control of your body. I will teleport you in 3...2...1."
...
" (thinks to himself) Ah... Why did you teleport me into a market? You think this is funny mate?!"
System," It seems the plan has succeeded. The reason host was teleported to this market is because in here host can ask around for information on sects near here."

" I knew that... I was just messing around, there's no way I would be that stupid."
System," Although the host has great luck, the host does not have much intelligence."
" Wow, we're back to you trying to bully me again. You'll never change this habit of yours, will you?"
System," Since the host is so useless I decided to gather info myself. I found out that there are two sects in this region, Sword Sect, and Saber Sect. Both sects are quite equal in power, but the leaders of the sects are both Bone Refining Stage 5. The host is recommended to go to one of the sects and have them give info on a more powerful sect that is nearby."
" How the hell did you figure this all out in a few seconds?"
System," I did a brain scan on all the people in this market. It was much more efficient than asking you to do anything."
" Relax, if you could've done it yourself then why did you even ask me? Aren't you intentionally trying to make things harder for me buddy?"
System," I will choose not to answer your question."
" And now you're avoiding my questions huh? Well, screw you mate. I don't have enough time to bicker with you all day. I'm hungry... I wonder what the people on this planet eat."
...
" I'll go to this shop I guess... It looks quite similar to a shop from planet Earth. Oh, the menu seems quite normal too. I'll have ramen noodles."
" Sure, just give us a minute.", said the waitress.
" Oof, this waitress is really hot. Are all girls on this planet hot?"
System," Just to let you know, no not all girls in this planet are 'hot'."
" Doesn't matter. Every girl I meet is always hot."
System," Oh really? Look behind you."
" Ok. (thinks to himself) Holy sh*t she's ugly. (I will not describe what makes her so ugly because a lot of people get offended by the simplest of things, so you can let your imagination run free on how she looks) Damn you system, you just got extremely lucky."
System," Host is recommended to accept defeat."
" Well fu*k you."
" Here you go. And if you need anything else just call me.", said Ying Yue.
" Sure. (while eating) This tastes much better than the ramen noodles on Earth. Must be because they don't use such sh*t ingredients as the companies on Earth do. After I'm done eating, I should go to the Sword Sect. I'mma make the sect leader tell me everything he knows."

Tales of Teleios
Born as a noble free-man, the only daughter of a lord, Arete of Syracuse was an ambitious young woman who would do anything to succeed her father's position. One day, her father was exposed of his secret movement attempted to overthrow the emperor... Tales of Teleios set in the ancient Greco-Roman. It is a very standard adventure, low fantasy, alternate historical story with common archetype and predictable storyline. It is a form of artistic expression. 🏳️🌈 LGBTQIA+ Content Tag 🙇 ESL Author 📖 A Very Brief Summary 📖 (Unavoidable Spoiler) This story is about Arete of Syracuse (the protagonist) who was on a journey to find a mysterious Teleios of Eretria. Travelling with her servant Matea, her maternal cousin Agave and a former hetaira named Pryne. Throughout their journey, they discovered the conspiracy behind the Emperor Nero's eugenic system. This story explores the topic of human advancement. Tracing the idea back to the Greco-Roman world, the idea of eugenicism started when humans attempted to achieve perfection through breeding enhancements. However, The Three Elders realised that they couldn't afford waiting on the natural process of evolution. Thus, they came out with the controversial idea of experimentation through the building up of monstrosities using different body parts of animals and attempting to achieve immortality through taking over the younger human bodies. Teleios means perfection, and the center of this story is about the journey of four very flawed characters: The protagonist, Arete was a skinny noble woman who was born premature and had amenorrhea. She was supposed to be drowned by the order of Emperor Claudius due to her imperfection. While Matea was born a perfect healthy person, but has had everything taken away from her. Agave who was born out of wedlock but was fortunate enough to be adopted into a noble family. And Pryne who was on her way to have a loving family but drifted instead throughout the world after making a decision that she deeply regretted and needed to overcome her sense of guilt along the way. The story will explore some of the most controversial topics which involved detestable ancient practices such as pedarastry, where as the Empress Sporus, being the victim of it, coping with her tragic experience through acceptance of the oppressor and her struggle for not being able to conceive. In summary, the topics were largely related to gender and sex. There will be violence and gore, as most of the fantasy works does. while the author here would like to inform the readers that this is not an erotica, nor it has any sentences that involve depiction of sexual activities. Therefore, this story is not for those who seek thrill on its sexual content. A dialogue of Empress Sporus: "The world itself abused us to a level unimaginable! Yet we have to learn to love the world! Simply to live! To make our life a little easier, a little happier. So what is wrong with that? Are you expecting me to go against the emperor when he is the one and only reason I became the empress?" Said Sporus.
