BXBX NOVEL Chapter 79 Upgrades And Meeting Together
"Definitely." Jason replied surely as his status screen suddenly appeared in front of him. Except this time, it was completely remodeled.
Jason had been expecting a few changes at best yet the new look of the system screen made his jaw drop slightly.

Jason peered at his status screen for quite some time, looking over the details with observant eyes.
He noticed that the mana and health points section had been removed after the update though he didn\'t know the reason for their removal. The skills addition, however, was very convenient.
[ It was because you don\'t need them anymore. Your current mana recovery speed is one point per second. ] The system suddenly informed as it could tell Jason\'s next question.
Jason felt a bit surprised by this revelation yet one mana point per second wasn\'t that fast of a time. It basically meant he could recover sixty mana in one minute and during a life or death battle, it wasn\'t that great.
\'But that doesn\'t mean that you should remove it. Its so easy for me to lose my mana and fall unconscious without realizing it.\' Jason pointed out.
[ You also have a guardian. ] The system countered before asking Jason to open the system menu.
Due to not using it for years, Jason was surprised to see that the feature was still there.
\'Menu,\' Jason thought as another window opened in front of him.

Status
Guardian
System shop
---
Three simple options were present on the screen. Jason had been hoping to see the system shop open be unlocked since a long time ago and now that it was open, he couldn\'t help but smile at it.
He quickly pressed on the system shop button first and saw the screen expand further.

A Guide to Clover by God of Shadows [500 system points]
Explanation to the new system[Free]
---
Currently only two options were present for Jason to chose from. The choice wasn\'t that hard either as he didn\'t have the points to buy the first item and the second was free.
Since the second option was free, Jason would be a dumb person to not chose it. After all, free things were good most of the time.
He pressed the information option and the system took over from there.
[ The first few noticeable changes are made to your status screen. Everything related to you has been assorted there for quick and easy navigation. Your job class progression system has also bee reworked. ]
Hearing the explanation, Jason pressed his MJC and saw its details open up in front of him.
It just gave the details of the class followed by the skill tree as the progression meter from earlier was completely gone.
Jason couldn\'t help but wonder whether he could no longer level up his job class or something like that.
[ Erebus reworked the system after seeing how things were progressing in Clover. Now its more suited to the current world rather than just a basic system. ] The system explained side by side.
It continued on the moment Jason was about to ask a question. [ You have the freedom of creating any skill you want now as well as setting its limits depending on your body. Your potential is no longer bound by the system\'s judgments. ]
Jason opened and closed his mouth once before exiting the details on his job class. His mind was already working hard to think of all the possibilities that had opened up for him.
However, he still had one more thing left to be checked before he could use this new thing to his advantage.
He shifted his attention to the new addition on his menu page.
Jason opened the guardian column a moment later and watched the screen open in front of him, his eyes scanning the content from top to the bottom.

---
The guardian section was longer than most of the things Jason had currently seen.
Both the pros and cons were vital on their own and Jason understood them well, except for one of them.
\'Who are the nine guardians of Clover?\' Jason inquired but before the system could come up with a reply, Risa appeared right beside Jason.
"I hope you didn\'t face any troubles." She muttered, her eyes scanning Jason\'s body from head to feet. Risa seemed to be looking at his body for injuries and after making sure that he was all right, she looked him in the eyes.
"I\'m fine." Jason replied casually.
Risa seemed contempt with his answer and body condition as she took a glance around their surroundings.
"Hmm, we should start exploring the forest now. I don\'t think it would be a good idea to stay here till night." Risa muttered as the two of them made their way to the forest entrance.
Evening was already approaching steadily, making Jason wonder how the battles back at the arena were progressing.
He continued to wonder about that while occasionally talking to the system. Both of them were also thinking whether Ray was all right or not.
There was a good chance that something had happened to him, which was of course obvious. But the thing was that Ray was quite strong so whatever had happened must be on another level.
[ it might have been similar to what we experienced in the forest a few days back. Even the strongest of people can\'t fight against mental attacks. ] The system pointed it out.
\'Yeah…\'
At first, Jason didn\'t seem to notice where they were going yet he soon had an unsettling feeling wash over his bodies.
It was as though something foreign had suddenly appeared inside his body.
Risa still hadn\'t taken a turn for a long time and they had been going straight for as long as Jason could remember.
[ It has been around twenty minutes. ] The system provided helpfully yet even it sensed that there was something wrong going on.
Jason was trying his best to not feel uneasy yet he gave up a few minutes later and asked, "Grandma, you do know where we are going right?"
"I know this place on the back on of my hand. I know where we are going." She replied nonchalantly as the uneasy feeling in Jason\'s gut increased.
\'I don\'t think she would ever say that.\' He thought while narrowing his eyes.
[ Neither do I think that. Host, touch her skin for a brief seconds. I will run a scan on her body. ] The system suggested.
\'I didn\'t know you could do that.\' Jason replied in a surprised tone as he increased his pace a bit such that his hand brushed against Risa\'s hand.
The latter didn\'t seem to notice as Jason pulled back, returning to his original walking pace. However, his eyes were fully alert as he looked around from time to time.
[ Its a new feature. Now let me scan her body. ] The system informed before going silent.
Jason on the other hand wondered why such things happened to him. Also, how was someone even able to look and talk exactly like Risa yet turn out to be someone else.
\'Unless…\'
Jason suddenly remembered how the mist had come and Alex had appeared in front of them. The mist had also been hiding the bandits which neither him nor Risa had noticed.
What if that mist could do many more things…
Jason decided to up his guard in the meantime and tried to dispel his mind of conspiracy theories. He also slowed his pace a bit so that he was behind Risa.
The latter wasn\'t paying any attention to him so Jason was safe for the time being.
[ Host, stop right where you are! ] The system exclaimed all of a sudden, forcing Jason to stop in surprise.
Risa still continued to walk as Jason looked at her nervously. The moment she looked back, he would be fucked.
\'What is it?\' he inquired, swallowing nervously. He was ready to dash or move forward depending on the system\'s next words.
[ She isn\'t your grandmother. ] The system spoke softly. [ Someone is impersonating her. Its an imposter... ]
