My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

As Frank was given a thoughtful explanation of the world of Terra by Gwendolyn, who had thought of him as an ignorant street boy due to his ignorance, Frank decided to ask a few more questions, squeezing all of the information he could from Gwendolyn to prepare his new second life in this App World.

"So to resume everything… the world was created by gods, and so did the human and demi-human races, having each race a father god. It seems that through Gwendolyn's explanation, there are Humans, Beast-people, Elves, and probably Dwarves, and I believe that there might be a race similar to Demons to an extent. The Goddess of Chaos was a bitch, so she decided to curse humanity with monsters and dungeons, but the gods were compassionate, so they gave everyone Magic to fight back… and this world use of magic is rather similar to cultivation due to each person possessing a Mana Core inside their bodies that help them regulate and use Mana. Each Core can be of every attribute and blah, blah, blah… They even got ranks and all. And what else? I wonder if this world is simply filled with mages. Do they simply learn spells and that is it? That cannot be, I am sure that there might be classifications in between cultivators, not everyone will simply settle down with being an all-rounder, after all, the way to strength has always been in specialization, well, at least in MMORPGs…" Frank thought as he glanced back at Gwendolyn after drinking the last drop of orange juice.

"Miss Gwendolyn, I wonder if there are classifications in between the people that cultivate their Mana Cores actively? Also is there a name for such people?" asked Frank.

"Oh, right, I guess you could call us Magus. Although that name is simply a classification for anyone capable of cultivating their Mana Core, those that are not Magus are simply called civilians or… mortals. I am a Rank 2 middle stage Magus, and my Class is Fire Witch due to my specialization in Fire Attribute Magic of offensive capabilities. I am also considered a Battle Witch by some people as I have a few spells that can enhance my capabilities in battle and become more physical, however, I often like to blow my enemies away with fire from a safe distance… though those times are mostly in the past, and I don't want to get involved in war anymore, I have a daughter to take care of after all" said Gwendolyn as she petted Anabelle's silky orange-brown hair as the little fox girl twitched her ears cutely.

"Mama is strong! She protects me!" said Annabelle with an innocent smile.

"I see… But what are Classes? You are a Fire Witch that can also be considered a Battle Witch? Are there more classes?" asked Frank with curiosity.

"Indeed, a Class is often defined by the spells you're capable of developing. You see, no one can simply learn every spell of their attribute as long as they try harder… some people have a talent for offensive magic, others for defensive magic, others for enhancing magic, others for curse magic, others for environment magic, others for utility magic, healing magic, and more…"

"I see…"

"Well, such talents and affinities are often defined after awakening your Mana Core, you are given five spell scrolls for your attribute, and whichever one you are capable of learning will give away your talent. I was able to both learn Offensive and Enhancing Spells, so I became a Witch. There are also Battle Mages, those that can use magic to enhance their bodies even more than me and use weapons to compensate for their lack of offensive spells, and well, there are also Priestess that heal or enchant, and so on. The classifications are rather simple but get complicated when you have more than one affinity. Your Space Attribute Inventory Spell instantly makes you a Utility Mage, but if you're capable of learning more than that, such as an offensive spell, you could be a Utility Battle Mage…" said Gwendolyn. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

"So in this world, I am considered and Utility Mage until proven otherwise…? The thing is that the Inventory is not a Spell, it is a part of my Ability… I do not think I can even learn Spatial Attribute Magic any time soon… I do not even know what my Magic affinities are or how can I acquire them, this System is very secretive, unlike other systems I have seen in novels. I suppose that adds to the realism of the situation. This is real life, after all, I shouldn't simply compare it all with fiction…" thought Frank.

Then, Frank realized his Gift of Life Skill, which could be considered to be a power similar to a Life Attribute Spell. He decided to reveal such truth after asking if it was possible to be born with two attribute affinities.

"I wonder if its… possible for people to simply be born with more than one attribute affinity?" asked Frank. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

"Well, although there are people that artificially can gain more attributes, there are those that had been born with more than one Mana Core into their bodies, such individuals were able to cultivate twice as fast too, and develop into a wider range of spells and abilities… such people are extremely rare though, so rare that when one shows up, it might even mean the beginning of a new era," said Gwendolyn.

"Well… Should I tell her that I have the Gift of Life? How would she react? It is better to simply state it now instead of surprising her whenever I need to use it in the future…" thought Frank as he showed his palm to Gwendolyn.

"Miss Gwendolyn, could you give me your hand?" asked Frank.

"Hm? My… hand?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Yes… Please, trust in me, I want to show you something…" muttered Frank.

"Okay? Do you know any other spells, perhaps?" asked Gwendolyn as she gave Frank her hand.

"Gift of Life…" chanted Frank inside of his mind.

Suddenly, from within Frank's palm, a warm aura of life in the color of sparkling yellow gold covered Gwendolyn's hand as she felt the warmth rush through her arm into her body, the shock made her startle as she moved her hand away from Frank with a bit of surprise.

"Ah! That's…"

Gwendolyn suddenly realized that such aura could not be of the Spatial Attribute, which was a similar aura to the one that the Life Attribute Priests that often healed her wounds in battles would use.

She then realized why Frank was so curious about if there was any registry of those who had more than one attribute…

"Frank… you… You're a Double Attribute user!" said Gwendolyn in disbelief, her eyes widening in shock over such an event, just as she had said before, those born with the ability to use more than one attribute were simply geniuses, completely different than those that synthetically added attributes through the implant of Mana Cores into their bodies.

The greatest difference between a Natural Multiple Attribute User and an artificial one was that the natural was able to cultivate both Mana Cores, while those that artificially added them into their bodies could not, the Mana Core added into their bodies would simply become something like a tool, and not their natural one, unlike the naturals that would have all of their natural Mana Cores connected to their Souls.

It was thanks to this soul connection that the cultivation of Mana Cores was possible, if not, anyone that was to get a Mana Core from anyone they killed would suddenly be able to cultivate multiple times and become unstoppable.

However, the thing was that Frank did not even have Mana Cores, such powers that he showcased were simply part of his Ability, the System, and he also assumed that he was not capable of cultivating either.

But because of the situation, he could not simply tell such a secret that could shake the whole world to Gwendolyn, so he decided to simply make his abnormality a bit believable by making her assume it was a double Magic Core.

"You're… a Spatial and Life Attribute Magus then? You are… You're a dual Mana Core user… a Double Cultivator!" said Gwendolyn, her perception of Frank suddenly changed quite a bit.
