System: [Let me begin. After you came into contact with me, you should have gained the ability to open a system screen. I'll show you an example.]

 

With this, a see-through screen appeared before Kyoto, it was completely different from the one he had seen earlier that gave him the health potion. And the one that showed his information earlier.

 

System: [This screen is your stat panel. You only need to access it by saying, "Check profile". Whether you say it out loud or think it is no problem.]

 

Kyoto studied his stat panel, it looked a lot more detailed and did not include the information he had seen from before.

System: [Now that you looked at your stat panel I'll move on to the functions you'll have access to as a scientist.]

 

His stat panel disappeared and a new screen replaced it. The System explained to him the functions he saw were all he could do as a scientist. There were a lot of locked functions, but what he could do now was enough.

 

System: [The first function is the Quest, reward, and penalty function. I want to explain this to the best of my ability.]

 

There was a brief pause as the system sent something to him.

 

Quest Tutorial:

Research two Giant Wolf Carcasses.

Wolf Carcasses Researched: 0/2

Quest Rank: F

Quest Reward:?

Penalty: None

System: [I sent you another tutorial Quest. The Rank starts at the lowest rank, F. Quests will range from F rank to SSS rank depending on the level and rank of the host.]

 

"Wolf Carcasses? How will I be able to find any dead wolves around here?" Kyoto asked.

 

System: [No need to worry. I can do a wide search of the premises with a small upgrade to the system. If you just give me a moment, I will activate it now.]

 

Kyoto did as told and waited. But something has been bothering him for a while now. He has heard a fair amount of stories about the systems that once existed on Earth. And not once had there been any knowledge that they were this intelligent. 

This system not only seemed intelligent, but it also had a mind of its own. It's far beyond the stories he has heard. 

 

System: [It's prepared. I will now do a wide search of about thirty kilometers. Unfortunately, that is the most I can do. Once you earn more points it may be possible to expand the range.]

 

It's impossible that there would be any dead wolf carcasses deep in this forest. Though the forest here was crawling with monsters, wolves were at the top of the food chain here. Especially after the world became dense with mana. 

[Detected 4 Giant Wolf Carcasses twenty meters south. Bringing up the live map.]

This time a see-through screen appeared above the tablet lying on the counter. It was much bigger and displayed a map of the surrounding area. The building they were in was even marked on it. It would have been nice if he had this map earlier. Though it only showed thirty kilometers of the surrounding forest, this was still useful to him.

However, that should not be his problem. If there were possible wolf carcasses in the area, this only meant one thing. Something much stronger and more dangerous than a wolf has somehow made its home in this forest. It's a miracle that this place was far from civilization.

  While knowing this, Kyoto's mind was more interested in why the system needed a wolf carcass in the first place. He will only find out once he goes out to retrieve them, right? 

"Alright, I'll complete this quest no matter what." He says with confidence. 

 

System: [I'll provide you with a spatial backpack. It can only hold so much, but it's good enough to hold more than 4 of those giant wolf carcasses. Please return safely, Kyoto.]

 

Because, if he died, I would have a hard time finding another scientist like him. It'll be a pain to survive without someone to whom I can give quests, no matter how much it pains me to admit my weaknesses.
