The Legacy System

Chapter 486 – Conversion & Time

In fact, he had already sensed the GPS trackers on Takeshiba Aika's body the moment that he had touched her hand at the wedding venue, but those weren't the biggest problems in her body.

The biggest problem was that his good father-in-law had actually planted in her body a rare treasure or artifact that he had refined with his soul and could act as a GPS tracker should he take off the trackers on her body.

While this was a grave problem it was at the same time a great chance and opportunity for him, as the moment he had sensed such a foreign object, he had received a notification from the Legacy System,

!!! The Legacy System has detected signs of a Soul Aura from the weak artifact!!

!!! Would the Host wish to convert the Soul Aura into SP points!?  Yes/No

Eric was about to press Yes directly, but then remembering something important, he used his Soul Avatar to communicate with the Legacy System and send a question,

"What will happen with the artifact after the Soul Aura conversion!?"

If this had happened before he had received 50% of the Legacy System's owners' rights, there was no way he was getting an answer, but now things were different.

The Legacy System couldn't ignore his questions and will anymore, as it had no other choice but to answer in the form of a notification.

!!! After the Soul Aura conversion the artifact will lose its use and current abilities, but the materials it's composed of will still remain untouched.

Later the host could use the materials to forge another artifact of the same nature or forge some better weapons that he can use with the help of the Legacy System!

Even though it was a pity that he would be losing an artifact received from his good father-in-law Eric still determinedly selected Yes with his Soul Avatar, and the conversion started.

His Legacy System surely had better materials and better artifacts that he could buy with the SP points gained from the conversion, and truthfully he wanted to know how it would work, and how much it would go for.

Just like some farmer who suddenly had discovered some new type of food, Eric had discovered something that could be of great use to him.

Immediately the conversion of the Soul Aura into SP points started, but for some reason, the Legacy System wasn't able to make the conversion happen instantly.

!!! The Host has confirmed the conversion of the Soul Aura into SP points!

!!! After calculations, the value of the Soul Aura is determined at 18.845 SP points!

!!! The conversion will finish in 2 minutes 15 seconds!

Just looking at those numbers Eric couldn't help but feel like he had just hit jackpot. Just how many people would he have to kill now in order to gather that many SP points?

While he didn't regret killing and doing anything he had done until now, he didn't want to become someone who only depended on killing either.

This was a great opportunity for him to thin out the blood on his hands, and care more about collecting treasures that contained Soul Aura.

Like this, he might even be able to recharge his reserves faster and better. Just thinking about it like that, made him extremely happy.

So happy, that he was ready to laugh out loud, even though he was more than a few hundred meters underwater.

His good mood didn't last for long though, because the next moment, he felt a sudden killing intent on his back, and quickly dodged to the side, while a grayish spear pierced through the location he was a moment ago.

It seemed like those bastards on the Yacht had been truly poached by that Young Master Red and were following behind him.

Since this was the case, then most probably his good father-in-law and that Young Master Red would soon appear in front of him as well.

Knowing this, Eric quickly prepared an escape talisman but didn't activate it immediately as he continued swimming at full speed.

Surely with Takeshiba Aika in his arms was a bit difficult to swim at full speed, and try to throw the following idiots off, but he didn't have much he could do.

He had to do his best for the remaining 1 minute and 57 seconds. There had passed only 18 seconds since the conversion started.

It was sure that once the conversion finished the connection between Master Takeshiba and the artifact would be cut off, and then he would be able to fully use the abilities of his Escape Talismans.

But seeing how not only Master Takeshiba, but even that Young Master Red had been able to sense him out, then he understood that a normal Escape Talisman wouldn't do the job.

In order to escape this situation he would have to go beyond that distance, so he had no other choice but to spendthrift some SP points and buy a high distance Escape Talisman.

This one was able to send him 150 km away from the current destination, but even its price was quite spicy as it cost a good 10.000 SP points.

For Eric, this distance was extremely long, and the price was certainly a bit too much, but as if reading his thoughts the Dragon Empress said out loud,

"Hmph~! Just 150 km is like taking a step for some people! There will be one day that this 150 km distance will look like a nanometer if you ever reach that height of course!"

Her words clearly startled and surprised Eric a bit but thinking deeper into those words it just made him even more excited to reach that stage and show it to this arrogant wifey of his.

Thinking like that, he quickly bought the high distance Escape Talisman, while he was still swimming away with Takeshiba Aika in his arms.

It was good that different from those idiots behind him, he had an oxygen carrier with him, in the form of the beauty in his arms.

So he was able to last for much longer underwater than they could. But he still would have to last for a long time.

Before he could even rejoice at those thoughts, he suddenly felt grave danger in front of him and was forced to stop in his tracks immediately, as he saw a blackish-red crescent energy line cut in front of him.

He didn't need to ponder much to understand who was the reason behind that attack, as finally, Young Master Red seemed to have arrived above him.

Seeing that it would be useless to try and run like this anymore, Eric just undid the Blood Clone mask from his face and started swimming above.

The other guys that were on his back seemed to have stopped as well, as they were all showing some brutal and weird expressions on their faces.

In their eyes, Eric was nothing more than some sort of small fish that they could kill whenever they wanted, as he was also their ticket to surviving this nightmarish night.

Eric seemed like he didn't see any of this, as he just continued to swim towards the surface of the ocean trying his best to stall for time.

But his efforts seemed to have agitated and angered that Young Master Red, as he used his energy to pull Eric and Takeshiba Aika even faster towards the surface.

In less than 10 seconds Eric and Takeshiba Aika were brought to the surface, with Young Master Red and Master Takeshiba looking at them with weird complexions on their faces.

It took another 6 seconds for Young Master Red to look Eric from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet, as he asked with a cool voice,

"How did you do that?"

"Well, I don't want to offend you Young Master Red, but I believe that it was my charm and handsomeness!

Perhaps if you didn't hide your face behind that mask you might have a chance to do what I did!"

The crowd of experts around was shocked, it didn't seem like the question and the answer were related.

"Hahahah~! You surely know how to joke around kid! But you better not try to do that again, otherwise, I don't think that I will be able to guarantee that you will keep all your body parts!

How did you run through 15 kilometers in 15 seconds?"

"Oh that!? I thought that you asked me how I was able to make Aika fall for me! Well, it's not like it's much of a secret I just used something called an Escape Talisman!"

Eric's composure and calm speaking voice impressed quite a few people, as they didn't understand how it was possible for him to do something like that.

Even if he was just faking his composure and calm, he was still doing something that not many people could compare to.

At least the people around him at the moment didn't feel like they would be able to do it! Even Young Master Red had to praise him internally for doing something like that.

In all his life, the people that he had seen an act like this were only a few and in between. With those thoughts in mind, he asked in his usual voice,

"Do you have more of those!?"

"I do, yes! My Master gave me around 20 of those! Wait you aren't thinking of making me buy my own fiancé with my own treasures are you!?"

Only an idiot would accept having a treasure in his hands when he didn't have the strength to protect it, but the mention of his Master managed to make a few people think twice as well.

Still, the temptation of Eric's treasures was too big!

The most surprising part though was Young Master Red's next words…
