The Primal Blood Demonic Dragon

"I am virtual system born from virtual seed and half of your soul..."

"Wait! i know that. Tell me why a physical body as a different individual and why."

"Host soul is multiple times higher level than body. So as a solution i/system decided to create a living, breathing body to decrease pressure applying on host. As a result this body is incapable of heavy physical activity until it reaches higher level.

Host can now do things more efficiently. When needed in emergency, this body can take on more load to decrease pressure from host further temporarily but after effect will be - unable to decrease any load from host for a period of time including pressure that’s being lessened right now."

Gin nodded with understanding.

"So can you level up individually or depending on me. After all you are a living being with a soul now, so it should be possible to level up."

"Yes, this body can level up individually like any other lifeform."

"Good, good" He nodded happily thinking. ’Too many good enough things have happened in just short period of time. Half of soul is lost for system into coming into existence, which ended up resulting something extraordinary for me. Pressure decreased more than ninety percent on body as a result.’

Now Alice the system took half more pressure. He has feeling of being freed from chained for too many years.

"So what about the system? Will it still function or no more system anymore."

"Yes, system will work like usual. My consciousness is divided into two parts. Major part in body as a soul and lesser one still as a virtual system."

System, he silently muttered in head. Then a virtual screen appeared in his view which is projecting inside his retina. No one can perceive his information other than him.

In meantime old woman arrived with Lucy on her shoulder and Xingning tagging along.

He only heard "Gin!" and next moment someone was hugging him from behind.

Raising his left hand, folded it toward his back, placed it on her head and rubbed "There there."

He didn’t know what to say now, so he only kept caressing her head. But when he turned back to look at her expression, he was taken aback.

"Hm? Chef?"

"Ho ho, still remember me."

"Of course. We only met few days ago..." At last word he paused for a moment.

"You sure?" She asked raising left eyebrow.

"Um, no. Sorry, i am still a little confused. No wait! what happened to Lucy and why are you even here!" He said while rubbing his forehead with right fingers and suddenly exclaimed noticing Lucy on her shoulder.

After all everything happened so suddenly in sort time frame.

"Let’s go, we have to move from here. You can ask her when she wakes up." Saira advised him seeing his clueless face. "Did you felt those beasts while inside vortex?"

"Yes, i also felt them." He decided leave this matter for later, now absolute priority is finding a shelter.

They moved toward left through coast line.

After going roughly three kilometers, ground started to change into high ground. Just a little higher than sea level. At a distance about 2 kilometers at left in wilderness a cave was spotted with entrance around their height.

Xingning volunteered to check inside the cave. "Cave is hollow from inside with enough space for all of us to move freely."

Saira placed Lucy on cave floor and examined the cave with her spiritual sense.

Xingning was curiously checking out Alice, whom she just gave her cloths to wear. "Really turned out complete copy." But is being ignored by Alice.

Saira decided to search for beast on her level to hunt. Just she was about to leave, Gin stopped her.

"Hey chef, what’s your level?"

"Peak Tier 5, why?" Despite not knowing his reason she answered him anyway. Though she can guess one from situation.

"Can you help me just once based on acquaintanceship."

"Why! want to take a shortcut?" She wanted to mock his incapability but held in.

"Not really shortcut, just..t skipping one process to start earlier." He paused in middle to come up with understandable words.

"Oh. What do you want then?"

He raised his index finger "Just one Tier 2 beast. It will be enough as long as my constitution awakens and finally can let myself loose free. I don’t really want to wait more enough to accumulate hundred evo energy.

[**Note: Evolution energy = Evo energy]

Saira the oldy made her decision after staying silent for few seconds. "Fine but only this once."

"Certainly." Gin thanked her by nodding at her.

Watching her leave Gin sat in a corner, tried to empty his head and focus on relaxing his body. After a minute his head is devoid of any other thoughts but his body has yet to be stable. ’Sigh! if body doesn’t relax, pores won’t open to absorb world energy around.’

Shaking his head Gin tried again to relax his nerves.

Time passed few minutes but he didn’t stop.

Ten minutes passed, body has eased slightly but not enough for pores to open.

Twenty minutes later, he is still at it, never stopped. body relaxed a little further but stopped at one point, didn’t go any further no matter how much he tried.

Then a thought suddenly came in his head as his concentration wavered by lack of any result "Crap, Musa is still sealed."
