" I am not sulking, I am thinking about ways to pay you back"
" While I do act like the voice in my head never said anything, I wanted to ask you why you have appeared in front of me in the first place? It must have been something quite important if you decide to blow the cover you had created for yourself.
' Even though the reason is of great importance, me appearing in front of you was not caused by the necessity of the situation, but the fact that the whole server is currently being updated. Those changes are necessary for the upcoming event. '
'Your help is required for this update.'
So what's in it for me?
' I am perplexed just now you spent all that time bickering and the instance you start talking to me you are jumping straight to the point. Why do you act that way?'
It is quite simple, the main reason is that you only appear in front of me, when the situation calls for it, so I am not going to waste any second with you to useless small talk. The reason for the previous bickering was to ensure that I do not leave any potential risks behind in my body. As much as I do not know about the creature living inside of me, I certainly do how important it was for me standing here.
So it was important for me to understand his personality and his agenda, to see where it aligns with mine and to find a common ground to work with. But in your case, there exist neither dependence nor reason that forces us to work together. That is why I am not beating around the bush and asking for the terms of cooperation directly.
" You son of a..."
Not now you can cuss at me, whenever you want in the future but right now this is quite important to me, so please do not interrupt the conversation.
' The more I see and talk to you, the more I am intrigued to see and witness your former world.'
This is something neither you or I can achieve, so we should stick to the main business.
' My offer is that I enable your status once again, allowing this world to strengthen your body even further. Furthermore, the release of status would allow you to enjoy the benefits of the titles you receive. '
Wait, you mean those achievements, that you made to make fun of me.
" No, I did not make those achievements, but the titles you were awarded with where thanks to me. "
I do not get the purpose of such a system, if this world should be a training ground, then why would this place integrate those stats? I see no reason to implement such a system that would strengthen their body just for this world. Especially if those stats do not carry over into their real world. Having the strength to kill a monster in this world, does not equate to actually do so in their real world, with their real body.
I mean if someone was willing enough to spend all his points and strengthened his or her body, would they not be able to reach my level of strength sooner or later? If I remember correctly the categories one could put points in were strength, mana, endurance, faith or health.
' In theory yes someone could get stronger than you, but at first, you must understand how the system works. Every player is connected by this world by a tool we call despiritalizer. It transfers your spirit and connects it to a projection out of data for this world. That is why a player is able to respawn while you will die because in the moment of death the spirit gets removed from the data and only connects again once the body has been remodelled.
'All this happens, while their real bodies are out of harms danger. In case of a level up, this transfer tool allows us to strengthen their body the way they want. If a player would choose to put points in strength, then the ´despiritalizer would then force the mana in your body to stimulate your muscles and strengthen your body. But of course, your faith and capacity for magic still will massively influence the result of it.'
'Each god you worship will lead your magic to develop different qualities, one might make your body invulnerable to cold or strengthen your ability to run. Therefore there is no general way to know exactly what kind of impact it might have. That is why we are giving the choice to the players themselves because they know what is best for their body.'
Okay, that might explain why such a system would be implemented, but I have no idea how this is of any use to me. My whole being cannot coexist with magic. so how could my body get strengthened through magic? It is the total opposite magic is being converted to fit me and strengthen my body.

How the hell, was there next to no change in all my stats. My physical strength is not a mere 2 points worth. Furthermore, what are you trying to tell me with that kind of status? My stats are practically the same, like the ones I first saw. But all my hard training and all my strength are only worth 2 points. How disappointing.
' The data your consist out has next to no impact on your current strength. That means that your current physical capabilities cannot be determined by the system. Remember that every player in this simulation has a body made out of data and therefore we can change the body and their attributes however we need it to. In your case it something different, we can not replace your data. But we can change their properties. As you can see that your hitpoints have increased, that is because the system hat altered them.'
In my case, the system altered it because my body has matured. Is my assumption correct?
' Precisely. Satisfied with the reward?'
I have not yet heard about my task and judging by the way my so-called reward was announced, I guess that there is something more to it because previously you claimed to have transformed me into a named monster or boss.
But I have not received a title or achievement again after they have been enabled for me. Now you might state, that by changing me those achievements have been enabled, but looking at my status I find it hard to believe, that I have changed. I do not see any indication that would showcase that I am a named boss or a monster.
The system would not refer to me as an inferior human if I were special in its eyes. So that raises the question, why did I not get any achievements even though you never changed me? If I had to take a guess, I would have said that such a change would have raised too much suspicion and brought unwanted attention to it. You would have tried avoiding the main system noticing such a change. That is why I only could ever get those achievements, in an area that was under your full control.
' You have been turned into a named boss, that was not a lie by my side, rather it was a necessity as the main system, had noticed your unusual behaviour and started a request to evaluate the strange NPC. Mind you, a normal NPC would have not been able to fight against any kind of monster, with the body of a newborn. So I had to change you into a monster. But as it runs out a monster is not supposed to win over 100 players and so the system asked anew,
'The only option left was to assign you to be a relict out of the development process and making you an old prototype for the NPCs. The main system, then asked for feedback and due to your luck, the hype you had created around yourself was enough to validate your existence. They even went a step further and they are planning to release many more NPCs, who have a similar concept than you.'
And let me have yet another guess, those type of NPCs will have their status enabled, making them eligible for achievements and titles.
' I may have said, a little too much.'
Do not take me for a fool, you lead the conversation to this point, so we can discuss my job in its full detail. Besides a refusal from my side, would not end too well for me.
' Not beating around the bush any longer I see. I will need you to design NPC cities. '
From all possible things, why do I have to design cities? I am afraid to ask how you even came up with such an idea. Do you seriously think this world is ready for the kind of world I am used to? Such a city does not fit into this game nor does it actually seem like such a great idea. What would an NPC use to live here, even do with all the technology of a modern world? You might as well kill me now because I will not be able to fulfil that request of yours.
'If I were to demand such a thing from you, I would be deleted on the spot for coming up with such a design, forget it. I want your knowledge to create NPCs that fit into this world. Villages out of your world from your ancestors, that does not totally deviate from the norm.'
That can be done quite easily, but can I ask for one thing not as compensation, but as a motivation to do extra well?
' Normally I should refuse such a request on the spot knowing you, but since you are asking so nicely, what do you wish for?'
I want a safe place to hide, in a village somewhere that players do not visit that often. I have caused enough enmity and I want a place where I can get stronger safely and let the people forget about me.
' Something as minuscule as that can easily be done, I accept your request.'
What are we still waiting for lets get it over with.
