In the living room of an apartment that is nothing out of the ordinary, you can hear someone talking which would be normal if it weren't for being alone.
"DAMN IT" I said out loud not caring if anyone could hear me.
[Host I know that you are angry about the mission he got, but you have to understand that the missions are launched randomly depending on the different circumstances]
"And what should the damn circumstance be for me to have a mission that is literally impossible for me to complete in the given time?"
[Host you are not thinking rationally, you still have some things in your inventory that might help you complete the mission]
"..."
[...]
"Tell me the gacha classifications and their quality order" I said to the system as I slowly calmed down, getting angry will get me nowhere.
[The gacha classifications are divided into 4 categories that are weapons, potions, abilities and finally enchantments, their order of quality from the lowest to the highest would be starting with bronze, silver, gold, diamond and supreme]
"Wait, wait, wait, I have some questions" I told the system before telling one of my most important questions. "Didn't you say I could get a bloodline with the help of the system? So where am I supposed to get the bloodline from if all the gacha are from something that has nothing to do with the bloodline?
[Are you an idiot, host? the bloodline is not something that you get and you can use it, first you need to meet the conditions that are needed to activate the blood lineage, you can get the strongest lineage you can imagine but you cannot use it until you meet the conditions it needs to activate, the stronger the lineage, the more difficult and complicated the required conditions will be]
"Okay, I understand what you mean, there is nothing free in the world but you still haven't answered my question"
[To put it in a way that you can understand, the bloodline can be obtained through the system shop in exchange for conquest points or also by obtaining the blood yourself through relics and stuff]
"..." while I was thinking that I was ripped off I suddenly remembered something. "Wait and what is that random gacha ticket that was in the rewards bonus in the initial mission?"
[The truth is, that ticket is something that even for me is a super scam so I did not explain it to you, but to put it simply, it can be everything or it can be nothing]
"Explain well"
[As I told you it can be everything or it can be nothing, you can be touched by a super bloodline at god level or you can be touched by a simple toy sword]
"Wait, isn't this super OP?" I said excited to the system, but what he said next changed my excitement to disappointment.
[I recommend that you do not expect much host, they were originally discontinued since their chances of good rewards were too low, maybe they decided to give it another last chance to integrate into the system]
"..."
[...]
"Although I already have an idea tell me what 'Body Purifying Potion' is," I said while losing my hope of obtaining a blood lineage.
[Do not be sad host, who knows and one day what you call a cliché will happen and you will obtain a strong blood lineage, as for your question, I better show you]
As the system spoke, something similar to a hologram appeared again in front of my eyes, with the difference that this time the content was different.
<Body Purifying Potion - Made up of several hard-to-find ingredients and made by a potions master, it helps improve blood circulation and makes you immune to most common diseases by expelling toxins from the body.
Effects: Increases strength by 1 stat, increases senses by 1 stat, increases charm by 2 stat, increases charisma by 2 stat, chance to get a bodily skill.
Side effects: you will smell bad until your body finishes expelling all the impurities and toxins>
"Interesting" I said as I headed straight for the shower. "System, open the package for beginners."
[Understood host]
<Using Deluxe Pack for Beginners>
<Ding>
<¡Congratulations!, you just got Master Rank Cooking Talent>
<Ding>
<¡Congratulations! You just got the C rank Antique Appraisal skill>
<Ding>
<Congratulations! You just got the B rank spatial storage skill>
<Ding>
<Congratulations! You just gained the C rank inspect skill>
[Wow, they're very good skills and talents, I guess it's not called a Deluxe Pack for Beginners for nothing]
"triple C baby" I said to the system as I finished taking off my clothes and calmly got into the shower before the system would ruin things again.
[Just for your information, did you know I am a beautiful pure woman and you just undressed in front of me?]
"So what? Do you want me to be responsible or something like that? Remember that it is you who decided to see my body" I said calmly to the system without caring that he saw my body. "You better get used to it too as I have no plans to die anytime soon"
[...]
"..."
[To be honest, I was hoping you would be surprised that it had a gender]
"Well at first I had my doubts that you were something more than a simple system, since your answers seem more human, and that cannot be simulated or copied, the truth does not interest me if you are a god who wants to waste time or a demon that only wants to see me suffer and I am not even interested that if everything you have told me about yourself is a lie, the only thing I can tell you is that if you are my enemy I will do the impossible to kill you, regardless of whether I lose my humanity in the way "I said calmly to the system as if I had not just threatened a possible superior existence.
[...]
"..."
[I cannot tell you much because I am not allowed to talk about more, but if I can tell you that I am on your side, we have spent little time together and you do not know me and I do not know you, but I want you to know that I prefer you as a host than another you call fake hero A]
"We'll see" I said as I finished showering and filled the tub with hot water. "By the way I forgot to ask you before, what are the talents and what are their ranks?"
[I see that you finally get serious, talents as the word says are the aptitude of a person in a certain field, for example, a person without talent who has been practicing the sword for 10 years may not be better than a person with talent who He has been practicing for 1 year or even 1 month depending on the talent, the talent is divided into 4 ranks from lowest to highest starting with genius, experienced, master and mastered]
"Is there a lot of difference between the talent ranks?" Ask sincerely interested in the topic of talents "and why didn't I feel anything when I got the master cooking talent?"
[To begin with, each rank has a big difference, whether in talent, weapons, abilities or whatever, each rank is a very big difference compared to the previous grade, continuing with the example of the swordsman, let's say a swordsman with a talent of Genius rank gains a sword skill after 1 year of training, how long do you think it takes a swordsman with the experienced rank talent to gain a skill, host?]
"2 months before?" I said while thinking how unfair people are born with great talent. "I mean it can't be that exaggerated right?"
[..., what would take a swordsman with an experienced grade talent to obtain a sword skill and with improved quality, would be less than half a year]
"..." I'm speechless. "So how long would it take for a person with an mastered grade talent to master a sword skill?"
[I have not idea, each talent is different from the previous one, one could have a talent at a mastered level but if you do not make an effort it would be useless, the talent is only an external help to be able to master a specific field more quickly, how far you can go depends how much effort you put into it]
"So you are telling me that the talent for cooking that I got is only an outside help so that I can level up my cooking skills faster?"
[Not exactly, the talent of the kitchen is more extensive than you think, a person who dominates the kitchen does not only mean being able to cook well, it is also knowing how to differentiate a good ingredient from an excellent ingredient, it also means being able to cook anything, already be it poison or whatever there is]
"Interesting, I suppose that this talent will help me level up my cooking faster to be able to make women fall in love, as the saying goes, to make a woman fall in love first make her belly fall in love HAHAHA"
As I laughed at the idea of making a girl fall in love with my food, the tub is finally filled with hot water, ready to have a good time after a shitty day.
[Host I have a question]
"Oh?" I said surprised at the idea that the system asked me something. "Go ahead, ask me"
[Why do you have the sexual technical ability (C) if you are supposed to be just a virgin who has never seen a woman's naked body? At first I thought it was a glitch, but it's impossible for me to make such a low mistake]
"For starters" I said as I settled into my tub with hot water. "The fact that I am a virgin does not mean that I have not had the opportunity to lose my virginity, besides that it is not the first time that I undress in front of a woman or whatever you are"
[Your mother or people in your family do not count]
"I don't have what you call mom, much less someone to call family, if you don't believe me look at my memory of 10 to 13 years" I said in a low voice as I closed my eyes and my consciousness slowly faded in my tub with hot water "Taking advantage of the fact that you will be busy looking at my memory, activate the body potion while I also take the opportunity to finally sleep for a while"
[If I wanted, I could see not only your memory but your life in just 1 second, you know?]
<Do you want to use the Body Purifying Potion? >
"I know, but" I said while agreeing in my mind to use the potion while I fell asleep, but not before telling him. "What fun would it be if you didn't enjoy the show?"
<ding>
<using Body Purifying Potion>
<Time required to finish the process: 1 hour>
************************
¿? pov
On a rainy day late at night, a child with various injuries that someone his age should not have can be seen under a bridge trying to sleep inside a cardboard box.
"Damn it, I almost died in that police raid on the gangsters on the north side of the city" said the boy as he tried to bear the pain of the wounds in order to sleep.
As the boy tried to sleep, he did not notice a pair of red eyes staring at him from afar like a hunter at his prey.
"I wonder who will have won, I just hope that the protection taxes do not go up after tonight, I already spent most of the money I have saved on buying medicines and bandages for my wounds, although I lost a lot of blood is not to the point where I have some counterattack but also tomorrow I have to go to the doctor to do a quick check-up "said the boy in a low voice as the pair of red eyes approached their prey slowly but surely.
While talking to himself, the red-eyed creature suddenly appeared in front of the boy scaring him by its appearance that was unlike anything he had ever seen before, the beast resembling a wolf with black fur with red eyes as strong as the color of blood, its claws were so large and sharp that it seemed that it could easily cut through steel.
"W-W What is that thing?" Said the boy as he stood up quickly from his box, ready to run for his life the moment the beast makes the slightest move.
Before the boy could ration, the beast threw him against the wall of the bridge making him spit blood, while the beast slowly approached, the boy was strangely calm despite his situation.
"I always knew that the day would come when I would die, but I did not expect it to arrive so early" said the boy in a low voice as he thought that this would probably be his last words.
"At least this suffering called life will end today" as the boy slowly closed his eyes, the beast finished approaching.
When the beast was about to kill its prey with its sharp claws, its head suddenly detached from its body, staining the child with blood that was as black as ink all over, as the beast's head rolled down the cold ground, the child could hear steps of heels approaching slowly.
As the rain fell harder than before, the boy could vaguely see a figure slowly approaching through the dark blood.
"Oh my poor boy" his voice sounded so beautiful with a beautiful piece of refined music. "What's your name boy? Where are your parents?"
"I, I, I don't have a name, ma'am, I don't have a parents either" said the boy trying to keep his conscience, after all he was already quite wounded before the beast appeared.
"..." while a silence formed between the two, the boy, albeit vaguely, managed to see the figure of his savior, to whom he owed his life.
She was a woman in her 20s dressed in a white shirt and skirt that reached her milky thighs, her hair golden like gold and beautiful blue eyes like the sky with her delicate but fascinating eyebrows, her face looked like a world-class work of art and her attractive lips that looked like a cherry that made you want to bite them, her body was quite slender with beautiful white skin without any impurity and as if that were not enough she had large breasts in addition to a waist that still Without seeing it correctly I knew that it had the shape of a perfect heart, in its hand was the unusual sight of wielding a sword that just by looking at it you would know that it was quite powerful.
"... what do you think if you become my son?" He suddenly said the beautiful mysterious woman, with a loving expression but with a touch of nervousness perhaps at the thought that he would reject her.
"It's okay ma'am, I agree to be her son" she said as her consciousness seemed to fade little by little.
"Don't tell me ma'am, now I'm your mom" she said while she made a little pout. "My name is ###### ###### but from now on you will call me mom, also from now on your name will be Kevin, Kevin Morales."
As the boy was becoming unconscious, he felt soft but strong arms surround him and lift him gently on the ground not caring that he was still stained with blood.
Before the boy finally passed out he said the words that the beautiful mystery woman wanted to hear so much.
"Yes mom" said the child without knowing that that same day he met the person who would make him experience from the bitter taste of first love to the pain of betrayal.

Release dates?
yes, sorry
There's a lot I'm enjoying about this novel, but there's a serious problem with genders in this novel, women being referred to as he and the male mc referred to as she, it really throws me off, more than anything else so far.
Ty for the chapter
