Chapter 2 - System

Ji Yen started searching for a safe shelter around him.

He did not want go too far away from the ant nest. It was his stable food supply.

But he could not find any safe shelter nearby him. The only safe shelter around him was his former sparrow nest. However, he could not get up there.

After searching for a while, Ji Yen decided to first digest what he had eaten.

So he went up to a nearby small bush for a little safety.

He sat inside it and started relaxing to digest the foods.

It was a funny scene to see his sitting position. He was not used to sitting like that so he felt a little comfortable to sit like a bird.

Even though he was relaxing, he did not closed his eyes. His past experience of spending in jungle tell him it was not safe letting down his guard. He was relaxing as well as he was in high alert.

About 2 hours later, as he was looking left and right, a light screen appeared in front of his eyes.

[Ding! The Divine Ascension System Is here.

Please, host confirm whether you want the system to serve you or not.

Click 'yes' to agree. And 'no' to deny.]

Ji Yen looked at the screen in shock. He did not think he could get a system. He only read a fantasy novel about system long time ago. But he did not think that it will happen to him as well.

He felt like the universe did not abandon him at all. Even though the sparrow mother, technically it was his mother, abandoned him.

He calmed himself. Then he tried to click 'yes' with his hand.

'Ohh.. yeah I am a bird now.' Then he clicked 'yes' with his beak.

[Ding! Initializing the launch.

1%...5%...10%.....50%....80%....100%.

Congratulations to the owner of the system.]

Without delaying Ji Yen asked. "Tell me the functions."

[This system can do many things.

The main function or ability is to let the owner evolve to higher forms.]

"Do you have any origin?" Ji Yen asked about the system origin.

[The system is a dependent entity. It was created by the universe energy.

It has served more than 4 owner before the current owner.]

Ji Yen thought it will say things like he did not have enough authority like that. He did not expect it to just reveal its origin.

But that is even better. He will not have to worry about it being a system arranged by higher beings to manipulate him.

"Just call me Host or Master in the future. Owner feels like a dish too plain without any teste." Ji Yen said to the system.

[Yes, Host.

Now, do you want to check the data of yourself.]

"Yes."

[Data.

Identity: Wild Sparrow.

Name: Ji Yen.

Rank: Normal Grade.

State: Weak, mild pains all over the body, right wing seriously injured.

Realm: None.

Bloodline: None.]

[The system can only show a simple data for now, since the host is too weak.]

"It is good enough for now." Ji Yen nodded.

[The system has detected that the host is injured.

Would you like me to cure you quickly?]

"You can do that? Yes..yes please." Ji Yen let out joyful cheep.

Ji Yen has been talking to the system for sometime. But all the surrounding things heard was just some chirping sound of the sparrow. Sometimes it will let out cheep-cheep and peck its beak ahead.

It was a funny scene.

[Please hold on.]

Ji Yen tilted his head with a question mark.

Suddenly, he felt his whole body itching.

After 5 minutes, the system let out another message.

[Ding.

All the injuries are healed.]

Ji Yen felt better than before, but he felt another wave of hunger.

'So it uses the energy to fixed my injuries. What a concept. It does not break the rule.' He checked his body and thought about it.

"Now let's hunt some ants." He sat and peaked his head out to see for any danger signs.

Feeling that no danger was in sight, Ji Yen walked out of the small bush slowly.

This time he did not ran to the ant nest. Instead he wait for them a little far away from their sight.

The ants was still coming out of their nest to find food even after the attack.

'Let's check out the wings.' Ji Yen flapped his wings and tried to fly towards the ants.

Even though it was his first time, he still control the wings very easily.

Then he flied towards the door of the ants nests.

When he was about to decent, he lost control and crashed near the ant door.

But he quickly stood up and started pecking his beak.

Very quickly the ants ran inside the nest. However, Ji Yen was already full by them time they all ran inside.

So he flapped his wings and fly up to his nest.

It was already starting to get dark by the time Ji Yen finished his business for the day.

Laying on his nest, Ji Yen asked the system. "You said about something like evolving. What is that?"

[The host can evolve further than this form.

But it will take too much energy to evolve every time.

Please be aware of that. Otherwise the host might die from insufficient energy, since the process of evolution can not stop mid way.]

Ji Yen remembered the hunger he felt after healing and shuddered. He felt that he might die accidentally if he failed to prepare the foods for necessary evolution.

Then he asked. "So what I can evolve from this form?"

[The host has two options for evolution from the current form.

1. Wind Chasing Sparrow.(Half Grade 1 Semi-Demon Beast)

2.Light Feather Sparrow.(Normal Bird Beast)]

'Half Grade Demon beast huh..' Ji Yen did not even looked at the second option.

Why would he choose to be something normal when he could be something more than that.

"How much energy do I need for the first option?" Ji Yen inquired.
