Fun

If Narasha was surpised earlier, now she was shocked at Calvin's answer. But that shock didn't last long as she smiled.

"You have quite an open mind when it comes to things. What an admirable attitude you have Zeke."

Calvin face flushed a bit red as he isn't really used to receiving compliments from others, even from his close family and friends.

"Ohhh... haha thanks I guess." Calvin awkwardly laughed while looking away from her eyes.

Narasha's chuckled to herself as she thought of something to herself.

"Also, you think of me as a gentle big sister kind of person?" Narasha said with a teasing smile.

Calvin said hurriedly, "Ohh I wasn't implying anything when I said that. I just thought that you seem to be that type of person. I'm not insulting you or anything ok? Sorry about that."

Hearing his words made Narasha smile in a different way and a strange light flashed in her eyes while looking at Calvin.

Narasha said in a different tone that Calvin didn't notice, "No worries Zeke. Should we continue where we left off?"

Calvin took deep breaths before being excited again, "Sure!"

Narasha smiled, "Ok, let's go to your stats. You travellers have a system that has many features that you can use to help your journey. One important feauture is the status page. You can guess already what its purpose is so let's go straight to it. Just say status in your head and it will show up in front of you."

Calvin nodded excitedly as he did what she told. Soon, a blue screen appeared in front of him.

Narasha asked, "Can you see it?"

"Yup!" Calvin said as he looked at his status panel.

Narasha asked again, this time she hesitated for a bit, "Can I see it?"

"Yeah sure why not. Uhmm I wonder if its like this..." Calvin said as he tried sending his thoughts to the system to share his status to Narasha.

Sure enough, Narasha was soon able to see it. She was quite surprised but not because of the things she saw but because of Calvin.

"Your willing to let me see it?" Narasha asked with surprise.

Calvin shrugged, "Yeah sure why not. And before you say anything, I know that its bad to show others my status especially in your world. I'm not bragging or anything but I consider myself mentally mature because I read many books and I learned many things in there. So don't worry about it. Also I trust you Ms. Narasha since I get the feeling that you wouldn't treat me badly if I don't do it first. Also, you really give off the aura of a gentle big sister so its okay for me. I do hope its okay to you though."

Narasha smiled and said, "First off, I can see it in your eyes that you are already a bit mature mentally than your physical age which is good. Second, thank you for trusting me and I don't mind if you see me that way. In fact, I'm quite happy about it. And last, I feel quite hurt that you don't call be my name you know."

Calvin asked hesitantly, "Ohh are you ok with it?"

Narasha nodded, "Of course. It would make me happy if you just call be by my name."

Calvin said after a second, "Ok then... Narasha uhmm thanks?"

This put a smile on Narasha's face as she giggled, "No need to say thank you. Anyways, since it looks like you already have an idea about your status, I'll just make it short then. Is that ok Zeke?"

"Yup!" Calvin nodded.

"Ok. So right now you are a human but you can change that in the future. There are many ways how but I won't spoil you for now. The same can be said for titles while for the class and profession we'll get to that later. Level is self explanatory but I will say this to you and you must understand this. Levels aren't the most important for you here ok?"

"Ohh? Why?" Calvin asked with a confused voice.

"Well its because the sole purpose of levels is to make it easier for you travellers to gain strength much faster and safer. Every time you level up, you gain 5 attribute points to increase your attributes. As per skill points, you gain 1 per 3 levels. Also, level is the main requirements for improving your class. But, there are more ways than one that can help you become stronger without needing to level up. Like learning your skills that you gained. Training your techniques. And so much more. That's why don't put all your focus on leveling up ok?"

Calvin fell into deep thought as he tried to understand what Narasha said. Soon, his eyes lit up in realisation as he exclaimed, "Ohh are you saying that its bad to just depend on levels in order to gain strength since it is the most easiest way to get stronger?"

A smile appeared on her face as she said, "Exactly. We have heard a lot about travellers like you from the gods in order for us to help you more. And one thing I learned is your dependency on levels. Now I'm relieved that you have understood my intentions. It looks like you really are smart Zeke."

Calvin said embarrassed, "Ohh you think so? Even though I don't think I am, but still thank you."

Narasha shook her head as she smiled and said in genuine appreciation, "Yes you are. So be proud and don't be embarrassed."

Calvin grinned cheekily, "Hehe though I say I don't think I'm smart, inside of me I do think I am and I'm proud of it. I just don't like to boast around hehe."

Narasha's smile got wider as she giggled, "Haha, it's good that your not the type to boast Zeke. Keep that attitude up ok?"

Calvin smiled and said, "Yup!"

Narasha smiled back, "Ok let's continue then."

At that moment, a thought appeared in both of their minds.

'This is fun.'
