Systemless in a Parallel World

Zayn knew that the others wouldn't accept his merit points, but that was hardly something he could be bothered about.

He would shove his merit points down their throat if that was necessary for them to accept them.

The only things he needed right now were detailed information from Normies about Normies, preferably the Normie Union even, and some decent food.

His stomach was grumbling at the thought of some freshly made dishes and he could hardly control himself.

As for other things that he may need in the future, he was in possession of several Artifacts, over a hundred pseudo artifacts, and hundreds of Armaments for Soul Knights and Soul Squires. Selling them would earn more than enough merit points, and gold coins to purchase whatever he needed.

The only thing Zayn had to take into consideration was that it would attract too much unwanted attention if he were to sell everything in his possession.

He had never been stingy either, and it was actually quite pleasant to help out others with the things he had in surplus.

That was why Zayn ignored Mike's comment as he said.

"I have more than enough equipment to give everyone here. Everyone will get an expanding pouch and a bunch of Soul Knight Armaments. If you act nicely, I might even give you an Artifact." He said somewhat nonchalantly while his eyes continued to glimmer, "That being said, let's go hold a feast…I didn't eat proper food for the last few weeks…or has it already been months? I cannot really remember…but whatever!"

The others stared blankly at him, confusion visibly in their eyes. They were not really sure whether Zayn was joking or not.

However, recalling his high combat prowess and his exceptional equipment, his words might actually hold some truth.

"You…have spare Artifacts?" Mike, however, asked suspiciously.

"Yeah, I got them from a few Blessed, who attacked me in the wilderness. They were mercenaries who were after my treasures," Zayn answered honestly, pointing at the Silvermoon bracelet and slapping the scabbard of the left Dragontale Twin Saber.

He didn't think that it was necessary to say more than that because it actually made sense for bandits, or greedy Mercenaries to attack a teenager Normie around Zayn's age. They probably thought that Zayn was the child of a noble, who had been thrown out of the house after not being Blessed.

However, because they still loved their child, they gave him enough Artifacts to survive in the wild. The Mercenaries were likely to have that image in their mind upon encountering Zayn. It didn't really make sense that Zayn was an orphan, who had been 'lucky' enough to encounter and befriend a Master Blacksmith and to have more fruitful encounters that allowed him to reach a combat power much higher than his actual rank.

"Oh…well… I guess that makes sense then," Mike just said, looking as if he was not actually convinced.

"But why would you give us your equipment? Just sell it and buy yourself some more resources to train and become a Soul Lord as quickly as possible!" He added, on the verge of shouting at Zayn, who just shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't need more resources. It's much better if you guys can get some more equipment to increase combat power drastically. That way, we can increase our ranking, and our living conditions increase…and we will get better food! I thought about learning archery as well. I lack long-distance fighting capabilities the most.

That means, I only need some artifacts for archery before I'm fully equipped. Let's increase our ranking, and wipe the floor with those arrogant people at the top!" Zayn announced before he meekly added.

"But now…let's get some food. Like seriously, I'm fucking starving!"

Zayn had no problem reassuring everyone's survival by handing out a bunch of Armaments. He was not too sure about the Artifacts yet, but that was a smaller issue that could be solved quite simply. As long as he said that he would only lend the others his artifacts until they collected enough merit points to buy their own artifacts, everything should be fine.

Increasing their combat strength would inevitably help him as well. After pondering about it for quite a while, he realized that he shouldn't rely on the Dragontale Twin Sabers. They were exceptional weapons that could be used for close combat fights, but that was already it.

He knew that he was in need of means to fight over a long distance, which was why Jeremy's archery talent had intrigued him quite a bit.

Learning archery was not an easy matter, but that was perfectly fine. As a Normie, he would never really be able to learn any elemental spells, which meant that he would either have to use javelins to throw them, a crossbow to shoot or a bow to fight over a long distance.

It was only obvious but Zayn wanted to test out quite a few things. He would ask for the guidance of an Instructor in the Silverflame Camp as well. However, at the end of the day, he would have to take the practice in the Silverflame Camp onto the battlefield.

Making sure that his teammates were equipped with the best possible armaments and artifacts to ensure their survival, while he was gathering real experience as an archer was something he wanted to try out.

Furthermore, their hunting efficiency would increase drastically. That way, his investment would result in a sudden increase in merit points, which could then be exchanged for better goods. Zayn may as well get back more than he invested.

There was no way to act like a stingy idiot, who was unwilling to hand over some of the treasures that collected dust inside the Silvermoon Bracelet.

"But–" Mike said, just for Zayn to interfere immediately,

"Let's go eat!!"

He pulled Mike away from the bed before he looked at the others.

"You guys can come with us, or stay here. We can bring over some dishes. Just tell me what you want!"

Zayn's words caused Leona and the others to smile lightly.

"I am pretty sure that you don't want to show off your wealth, but you make it really hard to take you seriously right now," Leona said in-between two bursts of laughter.

Meanwhile, David forced himself to get out of bed. His arms were still aching but he could move them a little. His eyes were glowing brightly as he joined Zayn.

"Let's go eat something nice!!"
