Cosmic Patron System: 100X Return on Every Reward

Since the Merge, unless someone is rich enough to buy everything they needed, the Hunter’s progress and survival could be closely linked to rewards viewers donate them.

The range of rewards given by viewers starts with credits or coins to very costly items like skills, equipment, weapons, etc.

At least that much Reyansh knew, there were also sponsors but he didn’t had enough information about them.

So the 1st perk that gave him 100× of the rewards was something he didn’t even dream of. This thing alone could be a game changer.

His hands started shaking a little, just from the sheer excitement of receiving such rewards from his out of the world system. Taking a deep breath and forcing himself to calm down, he read forward.

[RECEIVE]

"Well, not as mind blowing as first perk but still useful. I won’t have to spend money to buy a streaming camera," feeling slightly deflated from his own expectations, he

commented and mentally clicked on [RECEIVE].

This time without any light or other phenomenon, a simple big black box appeared with a golden ribbon on it.

As he opened the box, two silver colored circular object appeared. Before he could even touch them, a system panel appeared in front of him.

[Would you like to activate the Hunter’s Orb?]

With his brows raised slightly along with his curiosity, he commanded, "Yes."

The two orbs started floating as they rose a little higher than Reyansh’s head, another

panel materialized in front.

[Would you like to check all functions of Hunter’s Orb?]

He readily accepted.

"Holy shit, it’s more amazing than I expected. A camera that grows with me, just what kind of ridiculous system I get attached to?" he wandered aloud in amazement.

A bead of sweat rolled down his forehead because, now along with all the excitement there was also a creeping fear that he may have gotten into something far more nefarious and he doesn’t even know it yet.

Before he could think about this further, the system panel before him worked as a distraction.

[You have acquired a streaming camera, would you like to complete your streaming profile?]

"First let’s go through all the perks." He decided reading further.

After reading all the perks, Reyansh mind went completely blank. This was not just something he didn’t read or knew, this was absolutely insane. Being overpowered was just the tip of the iceberg.

The perks from this system along with his talent was a deadly combination. As he was about to close the panel to create his streaming profile, another panel popped up.

"What the... just who in the hell is AAKASHA System to give me such special privileges and why?" he spoke loudly this time.

As much as he was ecstatic and happy to awaken and gain such overwhelming abilities.

His ever cautious mind was trying to make sense of his situation because if he got caught in someone’s scheme, there will be no one to look after his family.

"Should I chalk this up as universe’s gift on my birthday?" he wondered but deep down he also knew that wasn’t the case likely.

"Ahh...there’s no point in wallowing about something that’s already done."

"Whoever you are, giving me such an opportunity or whatever your plan is? I will just get strong enough so that no one can threaten the safety of my family." He announced to himself.

Deciding his path, he opened the system panel to finalize streaming profile.

[Would you like to create a channel alone or join in a guild channel?]

"My own channel,"

[Registering a streaming channel for Reyansh Kaul...] ×2

[Please select a name for your channel]

Amidst this situation, he literally forgot for a moment that he would have to pick a name. Taking a deep breath and exhaling for few times, he started thinking of possible he had thought of in years.

He still remembers the name of his father’s channel, Revani. The family always used to laugh whenever they talked about his channel.

A drop of tear threatened to fall out as a reminiscing smile appeared on his face.

"I am chasing my dreams dad, so I am sorry I will not be naming the channel after mother and Vanu." He spoke in a hushed tone.

"StarWalker," he decided on the name, "I always wanted to walk on stars when I was a child and nowadays it’s possible without becoming the Superman."

[Registering the Channel – StarWalker]

[Congratulations, you have created your own channel in Cosmic Broadcast Network]

[Happy Streaming!]

"Yeah, sure!"

Now with everything related to system completed, he looked around his room. He had come here to sleep off but things had turned towards elsewhere and he had lost his sleep and was etching to test all these abilities.

As he was thinking about his next move, to whether buy something but immediately he remembered, he has only 100 credits. With this amount, he would have trouble just to get a decent meal for two times.

"Should I do a test run first? With all my elite rank talent and strength at D, I probably could try on Grade I White gate." He pondered.

Deciding that this was the best option available to him, he took out his phone and checked for Grade I White gates nearby.

After few minutes, he finally found a desired gate and selected it for his first run.

He walked towards his mother’s bed as she lay in her bed. Nowadays, she rarely wakes up from his slumber.

He stood at the edge of the bed, with his fist clenched, looking at the weary state of his mother.

"Everything will be alright mother. I will get you the best possible care and who knows maybe even find a cure in this new world. Hold on for a little more, I will be back." He declared and turned to exit the room.

After exiting his flat, he pressed his steps towards his destination. He didn’t have to worry about ID as every White gate had a stall to provide a temporary ID to new awakeners.

As he walked, he felt the minutes changes in his body. His steps felt lighter, probably agility of E (lvl 5) at work.

He could take longer strides and walk faster. He also felt other changes but he focused more on reaching his destination first.

The journey that would have taken him more than an hour to reach generally, he made it in around half an hour.

As he reached closer to gate, the number of hunters visible on the road increased.

There was a small line in front of registration stall, within 10 minutes he got his temporary registration. Now he would have to complete the registration process within 2 days to enter another gate.

Most of the hunter were busy focusing on their own cameras, some people were in group, talking to a floating camera in front.

’So this is the Hunter’s world huh? And now I am a part of it.’ Reyansh thought looking around. Shaking any unnecessary thoughts, he walked towards the gate.

He stopped just a few steps before in front of the gate, taking a moment to look at the structure which brought the whole world upside down.

The structure in front was just as mentioned, a gate and white in color. But the gate itself had carving of monsters which appeared to be goblins. Leaves and branches carved out gave a more realistic feel to it.

Despite all the bravado and mental preparedness, his hands were still shaking due to a mixture of fear and excitement. Forcing himself to calm down, he opened his streaming profile.

[Would you like to upload a video or start a livestream?]

"Livestream." He mentioned, his most perks were related to that.

[Starting livestream in 10 seconds...]

He walked a few steps and touched the gate, he felt the earlier cold sensation and also a pull that the gate itself would pull him in.

[You have encountered a Grade I White gate, would you like to enter?]

’Yes,’ he mentally agreed.

The next moment, he felt like he was being pulled through a hole as his body stretched

and adjusted but next second his feet touched the something solid with a slight

dampness.

[You haven’t decided on the title for the stream, please put on a title otherwise it will go to default.]

"Crap...Ahh...StarWalker Streaming Solo," he decided in hurry.

His vision cleared and he noticed a jungles around him. He took a fighting stance, ready for any unexpected monster.

[StarWalker’s Stream has started]

The notification confirmed but the sudden movement caught the Reyansh’s attention. His hand raised to his head in fist form, he eyes the creature that appeared in front of him.

"Okay, people, here we go."
