《The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System? 》Chapter 149: A New Quest

"Good grief, maybe I should put a big note on the door so that you can clearly see it and remember to knock on the door the next time entering the room?"
Ria muttered not so soft yet loud enough for the Sheila to hear it the moment the latter stepped into the room right after she was done wearing her clothes. Before this little incident happened, Ria had just gotten out of the Trial Tower covering with sweats. Because Sheila was not there to help her with the goblins, she had to bring a torchlight on her own. She had thought it was fine after walking for a few minutes into the cave since she didn't see any goblin at the front but, maybe she had triggered something as after she reached that thought, she was sent flying toward the wall by the goblin hidden in the dark behind her.
She didn't know when or how but somehow the goblin managed to get behind her before sending her flying with its club. It hurts so much that she feels like passing out but was somehow fine after drinking the health potion that was in her pocket. Sheila had told her to prepare it in case a situation like this happened, though she never expected to experience it firsthand. After slaying the goblin, Ria becomes even more cautiously as she slowly dives deeper into the cave. Perhaps she had gotten a grasp on it as, afterward, she never get caught again in the sneak attack and managed to dodge it most of the time. Though there are times she was hit, it was not as bad as the first one.
After such a tiring 'work out', she absolutely needs to take a bath. Also, the feeling of her clothes sticking on her body due to the sweats feels pretty uncomfortable. That was why when Sheila had timely stepped into the room, Ria had just gone out of the bathroom and was about to wear her clothes. The timing couldn't possibly be any better than that.
"I told you I was thinking a bit too much about something that I wasn't focused on my surroundings, if not for that I would have knocked on the door."
Feeling slightly offended by Ria's remark, Sheila couldn't help but respond with a pout on her face.
"I wonder about that. Anyhow, I thought you said you had something to do, so why are you here then?"
Sheila went to the bed before sitting on it since there was only one chair in the room, which was already seated by Ria.
"Well, that's the reason why I'm here."

"What do you mean?"
Sheila opened her mouth yet nothing came out of it as she looks hesitant for a moment before nodding her head, my mother didn't specifically warn me that I couldn't tell the details about the bloodline and all to others, doesn't that mean I could tell it to Ria? I mean, it won't matter much, right? After all, Ria was already in the know about my power, thought Sheila as she decided to tell Ria about the information she just received from her mother, Sara a while ago.
"Actually..."
Five minutes later...
"And so, I'm waiting for my dad to gets home so that I could bring the two into the Trial Tower at once which I'll be informed by my mother later on."
"So that's what happened. I knew that your parents seemed to be special as the achievement of your mother is already a great deal. My thinking is too naive as I thought Sara was only a genius but not one who also had a special ability of her own, although it can't be said to be supernatural like those who can conjure fireball out of nothing, it is still enough to make her stand above the average people by making use of her ability."
"I was also surprised. Even more about my grandmother's ability, to be able to peek into the future, at such a huge cost at that too."
Sheila said while snacking on a snack she had brought out of her inventory a while ago when she was midway explaining it to Ria.
"That should be explained how you got the system yet it doesn't feel right somehow like, something is missing. We had assumed that there's a person behind the system back then, right?"
Sheila nodded in agreement with a frown.
"Then can it really be said to be your ability? What if the system was just something like 'power-renting', or something like that? Who knows, your ability might suddenly disappear just like it suddenly appeared on your mobile phone. It isn't impossible after all."
"I...have never seriously thought about that."
The two fall into silence. From Ria's observation, it was indeed correct to assume that the system might disappear one day. What if she was in combat with something and suddenly lose her power right at that particular time? Doesn't this mean that her loved one will be killed if the situation was where she was protecting them? Although it couldn't be denied that her body is definitely becoming stronger, the fact that it was from a system, an app on her phone makes it unbelievable. If someone was truly behind the system, what if one day they decided to 'delete' the app from her phone?

One headache after another, Sheila sighed while massaging her temple. Looking up, she could also see Ria with a frown which put a smile on her face since it seemed that her best friend was also worried about her. Just as she was about to open her mouth to speak, she suddenly felt a vibration in her pocket which indicated it must have been from her phone. With curiosity in mind, Sheila pulled out her phone before unlocking the lock screen with the password.
But what she saw on the notification interface caused her to freeze in place, of course, this reaction didn't escape from Ria's perceptions.
"Sheila?"
Seeing no response from the latter, Ria got up from her seat and went next to Sheila before leaning closer to look into her phone. On the screen of the phone, Ria could see there are two notifications on the interface which stated.
『 Quest System has been initiated! 』
『The quest [ System Transference ] has been created! 』
"Eh? What does this mean?"
Ria's questioning voice brought Sheila back to reality which in turn, she immediately launch up the Leveling System's app and clicks on the Quest interface. She didn't need to waste her time looking for it as it was there the moment she opened the Quest interface, it was sitting on the first spot as if by doing so, it makes it easier for Sheila to find it. Sheila slowly clicked on the quest before a new game-like interface shows up, replacing the previous.
『 System Transference (SSS) 』
『 By accepting the order given by ???, this quest has been created. By completing the requirements below, the system would be transferred to the host's consciousness.

—Special Treasure Chest x1

Punishment:

"...Can I curse right now?"
"No."
"Fxck!"
Ria sighed at her best friend who had just cursed. It can't be helped as even she was speechless and dumbfounded by what she had witnessed. But this meant that there is indeed someone working behind the system, even though it only shows as a question mark on the interface. It seemed that whoever behind the system didn't bother hiding their existence anymore, but Ria and Sheila were not sure if that is deemed as good.
Knock Knock!
The two jumped up in surprise at the sudden knocking on the door before Sheila heaved a sigh as she could feel a familiar presence behind the door instead of an unfamiliar one.
"I guess we will talk about this later since my parents are already here."
"Mhm. Go on, I'm sure you will be fine since this is your parent we're talking about. No matter how bad you are at explaining, at the very least, I'm sure that your mother could pick it up."
Ria muttered with a smile on her face while giving a pat on the latter shoulders. Sheila pouted at her remark but decide to let it go instead of getting mad over little things like this as she stepped forward, heading toward the door. Opening the door, two familiar figures entered her sight. She could see Anthony talking to Sara but the latter was ignoring him.
"Can you tell me now? You do know that I had to go abroad tomorrow for my business? Sara? Are you listening to me?"
The moment she stepped outside the room, Sara took steps toward her, following by Anthony who was still questioning her mother about why he was called home so suddenly. Sara didn't tell him everything and only told him to get home as fast as possible and that it is important before leaving him speechless as she hang up the call before he could inquire about it.
"Oh, my daughter! How are you doing in school? I heard your grades have been pretty good."
"Mhm. I'm doing well, but father... are you really leaving so soon?"
Anthony sighed.
"Unfortunately, yes. The business becomes hectic all of sudden and just yesterday, they called me saying that they required my presence ASAP to deal with the problem."
"I see... I guess I should explain everything in that place then."
Anthony was about to inquire about what she was talking about when her mother interrupted into the conversation.
"Are we going in now?"
Sheila nodded her head in agreement. Anthony could only look at the two in confusion, unable to understand what sort of topic are they talking about and why is he feeling like something important had just transmitted between the two of them while he remained ignorant.
"What are you two talking about? Where are we going?"
The last thing he saw before losing his sight was a cheeky smile from the two as they looked at him with amusement. When he regained his sight, everything around him had undergone a change that turned his common sense completely upside down. If not for the two presences with him, he might have considered it a dream. After all, he was a man who believes everything could be explained by science. At least, that was his belief before everything changed.

The Forgotten Hero
Long ago, in the world of Thyne, the Alliance of the Free Races, a name they had given themselves, summoned a hundred humans from another dimension. Praised as heroes by the people, they rejoiced that they had been able to acquire pure, mana deficient humans that wanted to aid them in their time of need, ignoring the black, archaic slave collars around their necks or the depressed, almost hate-filled expressions that they received when interacting with them. After Ten years of bloody war, the dark races were pushed back deep into their territories. Both sides were near breaking point and desperate to end the war once and for all. In a bargain, the twelve surviving heroes launched a high-risk mission, utilising advanced tactics from their home world to kill the Demon Lord. In exchange, they would be sent home, along with the magically preserved corpses of their comrades, though in truth, they knew that even if they returned, they would never be the same. Legends say that, upon ambushing the Demon Lord in his castle, they finally understood the plight of the world, and in the last act of heroism, sacrificed their lives, sealing him in an eternal prison so his essence would not be able to create another. With the loss of the Demon Lord, and no chance for another to be born, the dark races quickly surrendered and the free races celebrated, honouring the noble sacrifice of the heroes before quickly forgetting about them as they returned to their everyday lives. However, legends are rarely truthful, embellished by the victors in order to earn praise as well as hide the less desirable aspects of their deeds. Trapped in the Demon Lord's throne room inside the Demonic Palace, which even taking a single step on its desecrated grounds is punished by death, two figures remain motionless. They had long run out of insults and threats to trade and now they waited. For what, not even the Gods knew.
