What? I Actually Reincarnated As Stepping Stone In Another World?

Chapter 78 Functions Of The System That Are Outstanding!



"Then, how can you assist me, Arthasia?" Arthur inquired, his tone light.

Upon hearing this, Arthasia responded in a soft voice, "I will gradually disclose that to you, master."

Arthur nodded, and his expression was serious as he focused intently on listening to her explanation.

"First, there is the character function, which allows you to view data about yourself and the person you wish to investigate," Arthasia continued with her explanation.

Arthur's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this.

"Appraisal skill!" he exclaimed, his mind filled with disbelief.

It was a skill often seen in games related to character recognition, capable of unveiling various hidden secrets within a character.

Now, armed with this skill, Arthur felt a newfound sense of empowerment, knowing it would greatly aid him in his battles, particularly against the enigmatic and elusive Emperor Balka.

Arthur's wariness towards Emperor Balka ran deep, stemming from the mystery surrounding his methods and powers.

Every aspect of the Emperor's being kept Arthur on high alert, wary of the unknown lurking behind each facade.

Moreover, in the climactic arc of the Balka Empire, Emperor Alex ultimately ascended to the pinnacle that even Duke Asvold and Duke Noah could not reach—the Supreme Elemental Level.

As the wielder of the light element, Emperor Alex possessed a distinct advantage over David and Noah, who were attuned to the base elements.

While David and Noah undoubtedly possessed extraordinary talents, their abilities paled in comparison to the formidable power of a specialized elemental affinity.

Such anomalies were the very reason why specials were so terrifying.

Their talents, defying the rules of the world, made them exceptional beings.

As Arthur contemplated this, excitement surged within him, igniting his blood with fervor.

"I can finally unravel the enigma that has plagued me for so long!"

"Knowing all the strengths and hidden cards of an opponent, even indirectly, can be a devastating advantage," Arthur mused, releasing a sigh of relief as the weight on his shoulders lifted.

Despite being aware that this newfound ability alone was far from sufficient to defeat Emperor Alex or even pose a significant challenge, Arthur acknowledged it as a major breakthrough, akin to uncovering a hidden card in his arsenal.

With a determined nod, Arthur remained attentive, eager to hear more from Arthasia.

"The second function is the mission system, through which the master will be assigned missions that activate one at a time," Arthasia elucidated.

"However, the timing of these missions is uncertain, as they will only be triggered by specific events," she clarified further.

Arthur comprehended this aspect and nodded, acknowledging the nature of the mission system.

Similar to how missions are triggered in adventure games due to uncertain circumstances, the mission system operates in a similar manner.

It activates when specific events occur, such as murder, defeating an opponent, or any other triggering event.

"By the way, master, you are not obligated to accept the missions if you do not wish to."

"There is no coercion in this regard," Arthasia clarified.

"After all, I am here to assist you, and I will not impose such demands," she added, a gentle smile gracing her face as she explained.

Upon hearing this, Arthur felt both surprised and relieved that he was not compelled to undertake the triggered missions if he chose not to.

However, he was aware that the missions triggered would undoubtedly be in his favor, and as Arthasia had assured him, she would never bring him harm regardless of the circumstances.

This reassured him, instilling a sense of ease in Arthur.

"I understand, Arthasia," Arthur acknowledged.

"Is there anything else?" he inquired, his curiosity piqued.

Sensing that there was another aspect of the system that Arthasia had yet to explain, Arthur's intuition proved correct.

Arthasia nodded, her smile unwavering, as she proceeded to elaborate.

"Indeed, there is one more crucial function, my master," Arthasia stated, taking a deep breath.

"This function can be deemed the most valuable and beneficial to you, master," she expressed with anticipation.

"What is it?" Arthur asked, his expression serious as he directed his full attention toward Arthasia.

"It is the rating system," she responded.

"Rating system?" Arthur pondered, rubbing his chin as he endeavored to grasp the meaning behind her words.

"The rating system, or measurement system, allows you to assess the probability of successfully accomplishing a certain thing," Arthasia explained.

"Let me provide you with an example, master," she continued.

"If we consider a scenario where a nine-circle elemental engages in a battle against an elemental saint, what do you think is the likelihood of the nine-circle elemental emerging victorious?" Arthasia inquired, providing an illustrative example.

Listening attentively, Arthur responded with unwavering conviction, "Undoubtedly, the elemental saint would have a one hundred percent chance of winning."

He recognized the insurmountable disparity between a ninth-circle elemental and an elemental saint, a gap that rendered any attempt to bridge it futile.

The elemental art class alone was in a completely different league, leaving no room for doubt that the elemental saint would emerge victorious.

The power and mastery achieved by an elemental saint surpassed those of a ninth-circle elemental by a significant margin.

With the exception of Abel's unconventional armor plot, which might present a rare exception, it was indeed impossible for anyone else to bridge the insurmountable gap between a ninth-circle elemental and an elemental saint.

Arthasia nodded approvingly at Arthur's response and smiled gently.

"That's right," she affirmed.

"The rating system is designed to assess a master's probability of success or failure in various endeavors."

"It considers factors such as skills, abilities, and circumstances to provide a realistic evaluation of the likelihood of achieving a particular outcome."

"It can serve as a valuable function for decision-making and strategic planning, empowering you to assess your prospects with precision and make well-informed choices," she elaborated.

"I see..."

Arthur nodded in comprehension, his mind embracing the concept of the rating system.

The realization that he could accurately evaluate the probability of success across various aspects of his life filled him with profound wonder.

This function surpassed conventional wisdom, bestowing upon him a profound capability.

The rating system bestowed upon him the power to assess the likelihood of triumph, whether it be in learning, combat, or any other pursuit.

Armed with this invaluable insight, he could make well-founded choices and devise effective strategies.

In battles and wars, he would possess the advantage of foreseeing the odds of victory, enabling him to meticulously plan his actions and carefully weigh the associated risks.

The mere thought of utilizing the rating system against formidable adversaries like Emperor Alex or even David ignited an exhilarating surge of anticipation within Arthur.

The ability to assess his chances of victory against them was indeed a powerful advantage.

He couldn't contain his enthusiasm as he exclaimed, "What a remarkable function! I can't wait to put it to the test."

Arthur's satisfaction grew as he considered the combination of the appraisal skill and the rating system.

With these two powerful functions at his disposal, he felt more equipped than ever to face the challenges that awaited him.

Taking a moment to compose himself, Arthur refocused his attention on Arthasia.

"Thank you for explaining everything, Arthasia. These functions are truly incredible!"

"Just to confirm, are these all the functions currently available?" Arthur asked, seeking further clarification on the extent of the system's capabilities.

Arthasia nodded, her smile radiant.

"Yes, for now, these are the functions that are accessible to you."

She continued, "However, as you progress and face new challenges, it's possible that the system may unlock additional functions tailored to your growth and needs."

Upon hearing this, Arthur felt neither let down nor disheartened, as this function alone had already aided him significantly.

Furthermore, he chose not to rely excessively on external objects, for true power resided within himself!

"Thank you!"

"I appreciate these capabilities, Arthasia," he acknowledged gratefully.

"With no doubt, they will prove invaluable on my journey," he sincerely expressed.

"You're welcome, master," she replied softly, before adding, "By the way, master..."

"It is imperative that you return promptly, as it has been an extended period, and the system room cannot sustain your presence indefinitely."

A look of surprise crossed Arthur's face as he responded, "Very well, please return me."

Arthasia nodded, and within moments, Arthur vanished from the system room.

Observing his departure, Arthasia, who had been gazing in the direction he had gone, slowly lowered her head.

Her alluring lips appeared to whisper something, their seductive message shrouded in mystery.
