Systemless in a Parallel World

Before today, Zayn had a pretty hard time.

He was strong and his ability to absorb the ownerless soul particles of Soul Wisps allowed him to advance quickly as well. After a few fruitful encounters his accumulated wealth was quite considerable.

Even in the two months, he spent inside the Silverflame Camp, Zayn's wealth increased considerably. He loaned a bunch of Artifacts and Armaments to the Hunting Unit he joined, only to get them back a few days ago.

However, not only did he retrieve all Artifacts and Armaments but the members of the Hunting Unit transferred some of their Merit Points to him.

It was their way to thank him and to give him interest. That way, Zayn earned a lot, enough to purchase a high-grade Bow and a large batch of superior-quality arrows. Zayn was not too far away from purchasing Arrow Artifacts either.

One of the Arrow Artifacts he wanted to purchase had the Boomerang Rune, meaning that he could retrieve the Arrow after it hit the target.

There was also an Arrow Artifact that looked like a tiny finger cap, with which he could create Soul Arrows, manifested from soul particles. The Soul Arrows would be released while the Arrow Artifact could be reused.

When Zayn found these types of Artifacts, he was quite intrigued. Unfortunately, they were too expensive to purchase immediately.

Unfortunately, there was not too much time left in the Silverflame Camp either. There was only one day left before the opening of the Cavern Tower of the Casilian.

Zayn and the others were still feasting, and they were eyed by many. However, Zayn didn't really bother about them. He was happy to be around interesting people. They were honest, but not to a disgusting degree. Their attitude was quite nice, and Zayn got closer to them quite easily.

He was not too hard to approach, to begin with.

After two months had passed, they were a strong team with great teamwork and improved individual skills. Zayn was still the best – by far at that – but that was hardly an issue.

He was mostly focused on the accumulation of Merit Points because they improved their group's overall rank. Their Hunting Unit received many benefits from the Merit Points, and Zayn was able to make some decent purchases. At the same time, he was able to enhance the strength of his Spirits to the extreme.

This was one of the most important gains he made during the last two months and it was something that was necessary.

After all, it was about time to enter the Cavern Tower of the Casilian and make some big gains.

The Cavern Tower of the Casilian took the number of Soulrings of the Adventurer into account, meaning that Zayn's Soul Knight ranking would determine the difficulty of his Tower Conquest.

Sometimes, Towers took into account how much soul particles had been accumulated in the heart, but that didn't really make much of a difference for Zayn. Almost all of his Spirits were now at the Mid Soul Knight rank.

With that in mind, a full day passed and it was about time to enter the Cavern entrance that lead to the Tower of the Casilian.

Zayn's eyes moved to Legatus Sarah, who had begun with a full-blown speech that revolved mostly around mankind's situation in the Fused Realm and the importance of new prodigies. Everyone was supposed to work hard to become stronger and to reach new heights. They were the new generation that ought to succeed and exceed the old generation.

Zayn didn't think too much about that. He was more focused on the Cavern Tower of the Casilian, and his search for members of the Normie Union. All Camps of the Three Big Legions had materialized a spatial port to the Castle.

Spatial Ports connect two spaces with each other. It was a device that was usually used to connect the Shelters all over the human territory.

While it was quite expensive, the efficiency of spatial ports was quite high as well.

Teleporting the thousands of members of the different Camps to the Castle Tower of the Casilian was completed in less than half an hour.

The only issue left behind was the cramped space in the Cavern Hall where the Tower was located.

Zayn was calmly standing next to his nervous friends while intently scanning through the rows of thousands of Blessed and Normies.

'…it's getting hotter?'

Holding he card he had received from the Normie King, Zayn could feel that it was getting hotter. To be precise, the color of the Normie Union's business card changed color a little as well. Zayn didn't see the bronze shine that covered the edges of the business card, but they were slowly spreading out, intensifying as the card was getting hotter.

'Is a member of the Normie Union here? One of the new arrivals?'

Zayn was getting excited. His heart was beating faster and he knew that something interesting was bound to happen. Maybe it wouldn't happen now, but he was slowly getting closer to his goal.

The goal was that he would find out more about the other Otherworldler, and the 'truth' behind the existence of Normies. This included why the Gods were so afraid of Normies that they made their devout believers hunt them seemingly mindlessly.

The camps of the Three Big Legions were one of the first attempts to close the rift between Normies and Blessed, and Zayn thought that it might work. After all, he got to know Miranda and Mike, two nice Blessed from the younger generation.

There were also a few Blessed from the older generation, who were quite nice to him. However, Zayn could still tell that there were a few things that had to be tended to.

But that was something he could pay attention to in the future.

For now, it was most important to conquer the entire Castle Tower of the Casilian, and to find out who the member of the Normie Union was, or if there were more of them.

'I wonder…will higher-ups be here?'
