Systemless in a Parallel World

184 Shock after shock

After Zayn agreed to become a member of the Normie Union, he was given a place to train.

One of the Union's staff lead him to a humongous hall, which the middle-aged man called the fifth training hall. The Normie King followed him and the staff, but other than that there was no one in the training hall.

Maybe that was for the better because Zayn didn't even think of holding back anymore. He released all his Spirits from within his soul. More than 700 Spirits swarmed the training hall where they spread out before slumping to the ground. It was time to start gathering soul particles to regain their former strength!

Watching more than 700 Spirits emerge all around Zayn, the middle-aged staff member nearly collapsed. If not for the Normie King, the poor man would have died of a heart attack.

However, even Normie King was shocked.

His jaw dropped to the ground, but he gave his utmost to look calm and composed. This didn't work well, but he gave his best.

"I…think we should forget about dividing the training hall until this kid is done…" The staff said when he regained his senses, "Do you want the honor of dealing with the higher-ups, or do I have to tell them about this kid's power?"

Normie King didn't say a thing for a moment. His mind was in turmoil seeing the Giant Spirits, more than 700 at that.

'Zelia mentioned the Green Giants in the Tower Challenges inside the Cavern Tower of Casilian. Does that mean his strength increased that much inside the tower, or was he always that stronger?' He wondered, just to recall how weak Zayn had been when they first met.

'The number of Spirits he can control, and store is dependent on his own power…is that it?'

More and more thoughts flashed through his mind. Normie King nodded his head a few times before he turned to the staff.

"I will take care of this," He mentioned shortly before he turned serious as he added, "Don't tell anyone about it. If we want to make use of Zayn's powers the Blessed are not allowed to find out about him. We have to reveal him when the time is ripe…"

The staff member nodded his head slowly. He could fathom what Normie King thought and agreed. It was not unlikely that they would have to fight the government in order to get acknowledged as humans with equal rights as Blessed. Before anyone would listen to Normies, they had to attract enough attention. However, until they gained enough attention, the government, and Divine Beings with missions would try to throw as many obstacles as possible in their way.

Normie King and others trained hard to defend themselves and to fight when necessary. Having a trump card such as Zayn and his Spirits by their side would be perfect.

With that in mind, both the staff member and Normie King began to chuckle lightly. Meanwhile, Zayn could only stare holes into their bodies.

'These guys are nuts.' He thought, just to ignore what he heard upon eavesdropping on their conversation.

"Am I supposed to call someone if I need some resources such as highly nutritious meat, or will it be necessary to exchange some goods with the resources I need?" Zayn asked aloud.

The staff member stopped chuckling and regained his professionalism.

He walked over to Zayn with a vivid smile and retrieved a small card-shaped crystal.

"If you need something, channel soul particles inside it and report what you need. I will take care of your needs myself!" The man said, smashing his fist against the chest with a smug expression on his face.

Zayn nodded his head before he went over to his next question.

"What about Artifacts and Soul Armaments of a high rank? Can I order them as I desire? I want to equip my Spirits with some better weapons."

Both the Normie King and the staff member diverted their gaze to the masses of 700+ Spirits before their attention returned to Zayn.

"A-about that…" The staff member struggled, just for Zayn to smile lightly. He understood what the staff member wanted to convey.

"I can exchange the Artifacts and the other equipment I hoarded. There are a few thousand battle axes from Giants, and lots of equipment I collected before. If you give me a storage device, I can transfer everything I don't need into it. We can make a list of goods I need, and we will figure something out," Zayn offered, and the staff member nodded his head thankfully.

It was one thing gifting Zayn a single Artifact or something equivalent in value, but preparing several hundred high-quality Soul Armaments was a little bit over the top. As for several hundred high-quality Artifacts…yeah, no…

"You can use this storage ring to transfer everything," Normie King intervened suddenly, handing Zayn a ring.

Zayn accepted the ring and accessed both the Silvermoon Bracelet and the storage ring at the same time.

The next ten minutes were spent transferring weapons and armaments from one storage device to another.

"The ring's storage is a little tight, but it should work. I pushed and shoved a few armaments, but it will work!"

Zayn handed the storage ring to the staff member, who accessed it out of curiosity.

For the next 10 minutes, the staff member's brain short-circuited until he gave up thinking. He retrieved a pen and a piece of paper, attached the paper to a noticeboard, and began writing.

"Just tell me what you need, and I will make sure that the best blacksmiths will deliver what you desire. Once your physical condition is restored the goods should be done."

Normie King watched the conversation with a subtle smile on his lips. He was also curious about the number and quality of the goods inside the storage ring. However, seeing the staff member's reaction, he held back.

This particular staff member was hard to shock to such an extent…that was more than enough reason to hold back his curiosity.

"Nice. So, while my Spirits regain their former strength, I will do the same. This will take around four months as long as I receive enough nutrition," Zayn pointed out to which the staff member made a note on the paper.

After that, Zayn began to list down the weapons and goods he required for both the restoration of his physique and to equip his Spirits.

The Normie King listened with a smile on his face.

However, that smile disappeared slowly.

'Is that kid insane? Does he want to drain the Normie Union of their entire funds?!'

Yet, the staff member wrote down everything diligently. That was even more confusing.

'Wasn't this guy the stingiest of them all? Even the financial manager fears his stinginess…but he writes down everything?!'

'Just what is inside this storage ring???'
