Dean stood by the window feeling the cool breeze that was coming from outside, his hair that was originally resting on top of shoulders was fluttering around as it was blown by the wind. His now brown eyes watched the leaves and the grass sway by the wind as he said "System what is "System Absorption"?"

[ Ding

System Absorption: A feature that let the system absorb the knowledge of the book or any kind of text that comes from the "system reward" or the "system shop", by injecting the information directly in Host's head the system will not need to make unnecessary stuffs such as reading the book. ]

"What's with the materialization of the book last night then? Was it truly necessary to make it materialize?" Dean thought asking the system inside his head about the thing that happened last night. If the system can directly absorb the knowledge of the book and transfer that knowledge to hi brain wouldn't that mean he could have save some time from it?

[ System apologizes to host, the materialization of the book was the test of the materialization process. ] The voice of the system was still the same as before monotonous to the point of robotic.

Dean just nodded his head and said "It's alright, at least I was able to get some ideas from that. Anyway, go with the system absorption." He added as he took a chair from the chair and sat in front of the window.

[ Ding

Command Recognize, begin system absorption of the "Chaotic Void Heart"

Ding, absorption complete, starting information transfer calm the mind and the heart host… ]

With the advice of the system Dean took a deep breath and made his heart beat at a normal rate. After readying his mind and heart Dean felt his head was in some sort of mind trance, he was not able to move his body not even a little because of this.

But from this trance like state he could clearly comprehend everything that was appearing in his head, the black state that came when a person was in a trance was not present as hundreds and thousands of words were continuously flowing in his head like a river.

"The Chaotic Void Heart is a technique that lets the user have an unwavering heart from any situation like a "Void" amidst the "Chaos" of the world, with his heart just like a void the chaos can be transformed into nothingness.

"This technique although powerful can only be trained in by someone that have the body of the chaos and the void as it is a complimentary technique, if this technique is mastered at its peak state it can let the user watched the heaven fall in front of him as calm as he could be when like watching a breeze blow by in the mundane world."

[ Ding

Transfer has been completed]

With his head being filled with the description of the technique Dean started comprehending what the technique was at its core and what he got was these, from his own comprehension Dean came to a conclusion that this technique was heaven defying.

Although it sounded too good to be true, but he couldn't helped but hope for it to become true despite thinking this way. The Chaos Void Heart technique started sinking in to him, as this happened he also started feeling that somehow his head was 2 times much clearer than before.

"So this is the effect of the chaos void heart, the effect is instantaneous even though I just grasped the method just now and I am already feeling the effect of this technique." Feeling the effect of the chaotic heart gave him Dean couldn't help but praised it, feeling it first hand was truly different than reading it.

[Chaotic Void Heart Progress status: Level 1]

As he listened to the system Dean started thinking about the pros and cons that comes from the system that he had learned so far, from the techniques that he can learn and the features that it has like the materialization of items that he gets when he buys at the system shop or the texts entering his mind directly and many more.

With his head clear and his heart clear of doubt he's finally starting to thinking of his goals for the future, his goal was revenge so he needs strength and with the system helping him to get to his goals Dean have a way to achieve it all.

His body had already undergone the Refining process granting him a rare class body at least according to the information that he was given, and base on what he got from the description of that technique the void body can be improve further more after that meaning his body can still become stronger.

With his mind running like this the wind behind suddenly change from that calming breeze to a fast and shard wind like in a windy day he turned around to close the window but seeing that the wind was still the same as before Dean started thinking that what just pass him was just his imagination.

He turned around and returned seated to his chair and place his chin right above his palms, after thinking for a while Dean finally lifted his head and stood up, as he stood a black figure caught the corner of his eyes making him turn around instinctively from curiosity.

The moment that he turn around what he saw was a woman wearing all black all over her body, the only that was not black from her was her skin that was showing slightly from her clothes and the reed veil that was hiding her face from Dean.

Her body look slim and her stature was of a little girl, Dean watch the girl who was crouching on the ground… no that was wrong she was not crouching in order to seat but she look liked she was hiding from someone or something.

Seeing this strange person beside him Dean touched her by the head and said "Hey little girl what are doing here? Did you come here to read some books or to borrow one? If you are then come back next time seems like the librarian here is nowhere to be found."

Dean took patted her by the head and multiple times and as time goes on he actually started liking the feeling of her smooth and fluffy black hair on his hands. But as he was about to pat the little lady for the fifth time his hands was slapped right across and a shout followed.

"Do not touch me so casually!" The little girl shriek.
