Reincarnated in a Novel World

Chapter 32: Changed After Talent Awakening

He excused himself, telling Zhu Zhen that he would inform her of all the details later, and moved to a quiet spot to answer the call.

"Who is this?" he asked.

"It's me, Zhou Wen," came the voice on the other end.

"Did something happen?" the butler asked quickly.

"Relax, nothing happened. The young master has returned to the villa and successfully upgraded his rank. He is currently unconscious," Zhou Wen replied.

"Wait for me, I'm coming," the butler replied calmly.

He then went to Zhu Zhen and informed her that he needed to go to the villa because of the young master's situation.

….

At the villa

Sam, who was lying on the bed, felt his eyelids tremble and soon opened his eyes. He saw that many members of the villa were gathered around him.

Confused, he asked, "Why is everyone gathered here?"

Zhou Wen, hearing the young master's voice, replied, "Young master, you were lying on the ground floor of the room."

Sam, upon hearing this, started to remember everything and said, "I remember now, I just need a moment to adjust myself."

"Okay, young master. If you need anything, just call for anyone," Zhou Wen said before leaving the room with everyone else.

Sam rubbed his temple and murmured, "What a troublesome situation... 'World System'."

[World System]

[Ding...]

[Your rank has been upgraded from F+ to E-]

[Your stat limit has increased by four times]

[You have gained a new Profession skill: Undead Displacement]

[You have passed the minimum criteria to connect with 'Small World']

[Undead Preserve skill: 200 to 500]

[Undead Energy conversion rate has been changed from 4.5 to 4]

[You can now extract C rank spiritual beings]

"My hard work has paid off," he thought, and a wide smile appeared on his face.

"Let's connect with the small world," he thought as he took the 'Small World' from his inventory.

In his hand, he held a small, egg-like material that was glistening - the 'Small World'.

He bit his finger and poured a drop of blood onto the 'Small World'.

Upon doing this, the 'Small World' started to rotate in his hand and soon entered the middle of his eyebrows.

A prompt appeared.

[World System]

[You have become the master of an independent world]

Sam became confused, wondering where the small world had gone.

As if understanding his confusion, the small world came out by itself, and knowledge related to its control transferred to his mind, accompanied by a sharp pain.

"Oh," he became surprised at the knowledge of controlling the small world and murmured, "It also has the will of a non-existent world."

Using his spiritual mind, he could see a view of the small world. There was nothing in this world except for a safe environment.

"Now, I also need to search for materials to upgrade the small world," he sighed at his powerlessness. But suddenly, a prompt appeared from Neo.

[Host, I suggest that you use a dungeon's core]

"Huh! What does that mean?" Sam said, confused and not understanding.

[Host, you should let the Small World devour the dungeon's core]

Sam was extremely surprised by Neo's response, but it also seemed feasible. However, that meant sacrificing 500,000 E.P., which was a significant portion of his resources.

He steeled his heart and shed a tear at the sacrifice of 500,000 E.P.

He summoned the 'Small World' and the dungeon's core and let them devour each other. Soon, a notification came from the World System.

[World System]

[The Independent World is assimilating the dungeon's core law and energy]

[Processing: 0.1%... 2%...]

Upon seeing the notification from the World System, Sam understood that it would take a long time for the assimilation to complete.

…..

The butler arrived at the villa and entered Sam's room.

"Young master, is everything alright?" the butler asked.

"Yeah, Uncle, everything is alright," Sam replied.

After hesitating for a moment, the butler said solemnly, "Young master, I don't know if I should say this, but your current condition worries me."

Sam, understanding that he had completely changed after his 'Talent Awakening' and that anyone would also be concerned, thought for a moment before saying solemnly, "Uncle, I know you already know that I'm hiding many things and that I have changed a lot after the 'Talent Awakening' event. But Uncle, trust me, I will tell you everything. It's just that the time is not right."
