As Merlin sat lost in deep thought, a sudden sound pierced the silence, disrupting his train of thoughts. The sharp, metallic
"Ding!"
echoed through the room, jolting him back to reality. His head snapped up, and he turned to face the mirror that stood before him. But instead of seeing his entire reflection staring back, he was met with an unexpected sight – a transparent panel materialized in front of him, overlaying his reflection like a ghostly veil.
The panel flickered to life, displaying a progress bar that began to fill with a mesmerizing sequence of percentages:
"[System installing....]
[10%]
[26%]
[34%]
[56%....]
[79%.....86%]
[95%.....99%.....]".
Merlin's eyes followed the numbers as they ticked upward, his anticipation growing with each increment. He knew exactly what was happening – the installation of his system, a crucial component of his transmigration.
The system was the proverbial golden finger that every transmigrator relied on to navigate their new reality. It was a guiding force, a tool that would help him unlock his potential and make the most of his new life. Merlin's excitement was palpable as he waited for the installation to complete. He had heard stories about the incredible abilities and insights that these systems could provide, and he couldn't wait to see what kind of system he would be working with.
As the progress bar reached its final milestone – "[100%]" – the panel emitted another triumphant "Ding!", signaling the completion of the installation. Merlin's eyes gleamed with anticipation as he silently watched the system's interface unfold before him. He knew that the next few moments would reveal the secrets of his new reality, and he was eager to explore the possibilities that lay ahead.
With the system now online, Merlin's journey was about to take a dramatic turn. He was ready to uncover the mysteries of his new world, and the system would be his trusted companion every step of the way. The question on his mind was – what kind of system would he have? Would it be powerful, versatile, or perhaps something entirely unique? The suspense was thrilling, and Merlin couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder as he prepared to embark on this new chapter of his life.
The sudden, metallic "Ding!" echoed through the room, signaling the binding of the Creation system. Merlin's beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement as he gazed at the notification. The name alone was enough to pique his interest – the Creation system was undoubtedly an overpowered system, and he couldn't wait to explore its capabilities.
The system presented him with two options: "[Receive]" and "[Reject]". Merlin raised an eyebrow, amused by the absurdity of the question. Who in their right mind would reject a system with such a promising name? He swiftly clicked on the "Receive" option, his fingers moving with confidence. 'Of course, I'll receive it!' he thought to himself. "Just looking at its name is enough to know it's powerful!"
As the system panel unfolded before him, Merlin's eyes scanned the interface, taking in the wealth of information displayed. His status was the first thing that caught his attention:

Merlin's eyes widened as he took in the array of skills and traits listed. The system's evaluation of his abilities was both fascinating and informative. He couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation, knowing that he had the potential to grow and develop his skills further. The unknown Nen type and Nen skill, however, left him with more questions than answers. What kind of abilities would he unlock? How would his traits and skills interact with his Nen abilities? The possibilities were endless, and Merlin was eager to explore them all.
Merlin took a deep breath, calming himself down before walking back to the bed. He sat comfortably in the middle, surrounded by the softness of the bedding, and began to browse through the system with renewed focus. The gentle glow of the panel illuminated his face, casting a soft light on his features. As he scrolled through the various options and menus, his eyes landed on a peculiar icon at the bottom of the panel – a starter package adorned with a beautiful design that resembled a random box with a hint of mystery. The box seemed to be calling to him, piquing his curiosity.
The design on the box was intricate, with swirling patterns that seemed to dance across its surface. Merlin's fingers itched to tap it, to uncover the secrets that lay within. Without hesitation, he touched the icon, and an option appeared, asking him whether to open it or not. The choice was obvious – he had to open it! With a smile, he selected the [Open] option, his heart racing with anticipation.
The box slowly opened, revealing its contents. Merlin's eyes widened as he gazed at the box, his mind filled with expectations. What could be inside? Would it be something powerful, something that would give him an edge in this new world? He leaned forward, his eyes fixed on the box, as if willing the contents to reveal themselves.
Suddenly, a bright light emanated from the box, and a notification appeared before him.
[Ding!]
Merlin's eyes lit up with excitement as he read the message.
[Congratulations for receiving _Verdant Step_ and_ Verdant Exchange!]
The words danced across the screen, and Merlin's heart swelled with excitement. Verdant Step? What did it mean? Was it a skill, a power, or something more?
Merlin's mind racing with possibilities, he eagerly scanned the system for more information about Verdant Step and Verdant Exchange. What abilities would it grant him? Would it be the key to unlocking his true potential? The questions swirled in his mind, but he was determined to find the answers. With a sense of wonder and anticipation, Merlin delved deeper into the system, ready to uncover the secrets of Verdant Step.
