I Reincarnated As A Stick

Chapter 15 - OS



It did seem weird though. Every time he did something that would garner him a possible level up in his skills, it would usually end up being delayed. Say he shoots three shots within a minute which allows him to level up skill A within mere moments, it ends up becoming a level up to skill A many minutes later.

Pondering for a bit, Aurus then asked the question. "System, why are the level ups for skills superbly delayed?"

Ding!

"Eh?" Aurus didn't expect to hear a notification sound. He thought that it was just an inherent fault in the system Kurohana gave him, possibly emulating the feeling of lag he despised oh so much. But hearing a notification sound, it seems that that isn't the case.

'To remove delayed skill level ups, please upgrade the Existence Evolution OS.'

"Existence Evolution OS?" At this moment, Aurus was really confused. Back in his previous life, there was nothing called the Existence Evolution OS, only the Evolution Tree, Genesis Tree, Divinity Realm, and so on.

While he was wondering why there was something like this, an idea flashed in his mind.

"Since I've been reborn into a stick, the system I have is from the game but it doesn't stop there," Aurus continued to deduce until all of a sudden, his eyes gleamed.

"Does that mean that I can evolve the system to the point that it exceeds the capabilities of the system within the game?"

With this in mind, Aurus asked, "How do I upgrade the Existence Evolution OS?"

Ding!

'To open the Existence Evolution OS, please say 'Open OS'. To upgrade the OS, you can use OS points.'

Aurus only listened to the first statement and ignored the second, prompting him to say, "Open OS!"

Ding!

In an instant, a somewhat large screen appeared in front of his field of vision, occupying most of his view. Nonetheless, he made sure to check if there were enemies nearby before asking so he could be considered to be safe at the moment.

"Hmm..." Aurus couldn't help but frown at the three options on the large screen. One of them was related to the problem he was currently facing, but the other two were something of another level.

He assumed that the remaining two options on the screen would possibly affect his future progress.

All of a sudden, he noticed something.

"OS Points? Where do I get them? How did I get one?" Three questions instantly appeared in Aurus' mind. Thankfully, the system instantly answered his question.

Ding!

'OS Points are points used by the EEOS to improve itself and adapt to the needs of the user. To obtain them, the user must have to achieve certain tasks. As for how the user got one, it will be answered in due time.'

Hearing the vague answer that came out from the system, Aurus instantly got an urge to punch the system to shreds, only to realize that the system is intangible and he can't punch it.

"Haah..." Aurus calmed himself down by taking a few deep breaths and then looked at the options from a rational perspective.

"Identify the options in front of me," Aurus commanded.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Within a few seconds, three modestly sized screens appeared in front of the large screen Aurus was staring at a while ago, which allowed him to look at the advantages and disadvantages of each option.

________

[Level Up Synchronization]

The system was born imperfect, thus becoming unreliable whenever the user needs its help. One of these imperfections is that the leveling up of skills is delayed to various degrees, bringing the user's life in danger. Once upgraded to its first level, the problem shall be removed. Once upgraded to its maximum, there's a chance for the system to reward twice the amount of level ups.

Note: Movement skills and player level ups are excluded.

________

________

[Artificial Intelligence]

The system was born imperfect, thus becoming unreliable whenever the user needs its help. One of these imperfections is that it doesn't have the sentience capable of helping the user in its mundane tasks. Once upgraded, the system attains sentience, allowing the system to adapt to every situation the user is in. It also unlocks the Existence Evolution AI section of the EEOS.

________

________

[Memory DLC]

The system was born imperfect, thus becoming unreliable whenever the user needs its help. One of these imperfections is that the system doesn't allow the user to access all of their memories, becoming a hindrance rather than a tool. Once upgraded to the first level, it allows the user to access more of their memories, allowing them to use their memories to logically and rationally make decisions. Once upgraded to its maximum, the user can access all of their memories from their previous life, allowing them to think ahead.

________

Aurus closed the three screens and looked at the large screen once more, letting out a long breath. He was unsure of what to choose. At the moment, he only had one point to use to upgrade the system's OS, plus he wasn't sure if there was even a way to upgrade the OS.

In the end, Aurus closed the screen and sighed.

"Haah...I guess I'll have to live with this nuisance for a while. But once I find out that I can earn more OS Points to upgrade the system OS, I'm sure that I'll use the first one to upgrade Level Up Synchronization."

Placing that thought in the back of his head, Aurus then went to his next problem.

"[Wind Affinity]."

[Wind Affinity], a skill Aurus obtained after evolving into the Wind variant of the Walnut Stick species. It was a passive skill that allowed him to increase the attack power and attack speed of the skills he used, yet for some reason, along the way, even in his fights, it never gained any experience. Not even once.

In his previous life, Aurus would always hear that any player that gains an elemental affinity skill would surely become a strong existence at the Ascendant or God tier. They would have the power to shake the earth and tear the skies asunder.

Plus, Aurus was sure that upgrading his [Wind Affinity] skill in addition to gaining more SP would allow him more evolutions once he gets the chance to evolve to an A-Grade Inanimate.

Thinking for a bit, Aurus opened his map and set a marker towards a place that only players at the level of at least the X-Grade Inanimate would tread towards.

"Set a destination to the Tempest Cliff."
