1x Book: Nicolas Flamel's Research Notes]

As he read the list of items he had received, Carman noted some of the interesting things he had received this time, and the books he had received. It wasn't until his gaze reached the end of the list that he truly got excited. Nicolas Flamel was a reoccurring alchemist in fantasy novels, though his real life counterpart didn't really have a solid connection to the art of alchemy. Carman carefully took the leather bound book from his system storge and placed it on the coffee table. The words written on the first page were familiar but hard for Carman to decipher.

"Must be written in French, I'll have to ask Ryuzu to help translate later.' said Carman as he placed the book back into his storage.

Looking through the list once more, he pulled out the book "A Guide to Stoic Philosophy, Volume 1." Looking at the book I his hands Carman muttered, "this better not be some alpha male, don't feel emotions bull crap." Flipping though the first few pages, Carman was pleasantly surprised to have his expectations being wrong. The book was written on the traditional stoic philosophy rather than the modern concept.

Placing the book onto the coffee table to read though later, Carman looked at his system panel once again and exited the list of items he had drawn and to the skill banner.

[Draw {Omniversal Skills} x10?

[Yes/No] ]

Selecting Yes, Carman watched as the Gatcha started the drawing.

Skill exp....skill exp... Cooking (Rank D) Lv.1.... skill exp... Skill exp... Cartography (Rank E) Lv. 1.....skill exp... skill exp.. skill exp... Transmutation-Fullmetal Alchemist- Lv. 1.

[⚠️Warning ⚠️, entity: [Truth], is attempting to invade Host's Pycho-Spiritual space.]

What? Thought Carman as he saw the system warning

[Enforcing system protocol..... Entity repelled]

Cold sweat dripped down Carman's back as he read through the system panels.

[Notice: due to repelling [Truth] skill: Transmutation-Fullmetal Alchemist- Lv. 1. Has received critical damage. Compensation generating....

Administrator permission required... Requesting administration intervention....

Approved...

Switching to administrator panel]

Huh?!? Thought Carman as his system panel kept changing, suddenly the whole panel changed to an ornate ebony color with golden text.

[Long time no see kiddo, been keeping track of you since you reincarnated, and I'm glad to see your doing better over there.

Apologies for the inconvenience, there was a minor oversight when I was designing the system that left a loophole that Truth was trying to exploit.]

Long time no see? Do I know this person?thought Carman, confused as to how he would know the person on the other side of the system.

[Ah thats right, you forgot, I'm the one who sent you to this world. Sorry about the bumpy landing, I didn't have any control over who you reincarnated into, I just inserted your soul as next in line to get a body there.]

So it wasn't my fault that that stuff happened, it had already happened or was going to happen anyway. Thought Carman finding some comfort in the knowledge that his reincation didn't cause the chain of events leading to his body's birth.

[As compensation for that, and the issue that occured earlier today. I am going to run a few updates so stuff like this doesn't happen again, I'll also do my best to fix that skill you won. It shouldn't take more than a few days.

Best regards!]

And with that final message the panel reverted to its original colors and updated.

[Notice: system will be undergoing maintenance for the next 72 hours, many functions will be disabled during this period. Host will still be able to use [Skill] and [Item Storage] however other functions will be locked until mantaince is complete.

Remaining time: 72 hours]

"That was... something" said Carman as he looked at the panel before closing the system.

Picking up his book on Traditional Stoicism Carman decided not to dwell on it and started reading.
