Guardian Of The End-Chapter 7 I Am One Of The Best Out There!

'What a perfect time to appear…' Jason thought with sleepy eyes as a blue translucent screen appeared in front of his face.

The words were written in English and a mechanical voice had also echoed inside his head yet he was on the verge of falling asleep.

Jason decided that he would ask things after he had woken since doing anything in a half-asleep state was not a good idea.

'At least I will have a much better life this time…'

He thought before closing his eyes. In a matter of seconds, he was fast asleep.

---

'Hello? Anyone lurking inside my mind?' Jason thought as soon as he woke up.

The lights in the room were off while gentle wind was coming inside the room through the only window present at the eastern corner of it.

If Jason had to guess, the time was three or four hours past midnight which was usually the time many babies woke up at.

He could also feel that his lower clothes were slightly wet. Due to being reincarnated as a newborn baby, Jason's control over his bladder was very poor.

'Looks like grandma and grandpa are doing some work.' Despite the lights being turned off, Jason could clearly see everything as though it was morning.

The only reasonable explanation he had was his bloodline. Jason knew that he was a half-breed the moment he had seen the horns on top of his mother's forehead.

Issac and Risa on the other hand were definitely humans which made him a half-human half something else.

[ The host is half-human and half-demon. ]

The same mechanical voice suddenly reappeared inside his head. Simultaneously, a blue-colored rectangular window appeared in front of his face.

The words spoken by the voice were written on the window in golden color. Jason stared at it in awe for three seconds before going back to his neutral expression.

'I take it you are a system?'

[ Not just any system you might have read about on Earth. I am one of the best out there! ]

For a brief second, an emotion sparked up in the mechanical voice before dying down. Jason did not make any sort of comment as he had very well read the same thing occurring numerous times before.

Authors promising a different style of system and then going around repeating the entire cycle.

[ Host, please don't make prejudices about the system. ]

'Then tell me more about yourself. Of course, I will evaluate you on what I do know.'

[ Ding! ]

[ The Guardian System is fully active now ]

[ To access the Homepage, please say or think 'Homepage' ]

'Homepage…' Jason thought while reading the details. He had been expecting more of a status screen yet he was surprised.

[ Status:

Quests:

Job Classes (includes skills and spells):

System shop (LOCKED): ]

'Status.'

< Loading Status screen >

'That's it?!' Jason's eyes widened when he saw the simple status screen.

[ Host, I already told you that I am one of the strongest systems. I don't show stats like intelligence. However, some things on the status screen are currently not present due to the small amount of knowledge you hold. ]

Jason had already expected something like this the moment he had known he had a system. Though it put him at a major advantage, he had no idea what world he was in.

The only thing he knew was that he was living in a Barony of Duphia and that was just about it, aside from milk time. Being a baby was not ideal for gaining information.

'I should just keep going the way I am until I learn to walk.'

[ I'd suggest that as well. ]

'What is your purpose for being with me?' Jason then asked while remembering the numerous reasons systems were given yet his system's reply left him speechless.

[ It's quite simple. I am here to make sure you live a happy life. ]

The next morning, Jason discovered that he could get one system point a day by drinking a bottle of milk.

He asked the system what he could do with the system points but it refused to tell him anything. He instead received a suggestion saying that he should keep collecting system points.

'Not a spoon feeder either. I guess I have struck a diamond in a coal mine!' Jason's lips curled up as he happily yet lazily turned around in his new crib.

His new crib was a standard-sized crib from earth meaning that it was 52 inches(132 cm) long and 28 inches(71 cm) wide.

The only reason he knew these dimensions was due to the system.

[ You were the one who didn't believe me when I said I am built differently. ]

Jason decided to ignore the system's reply and focused on his status screen. The mana column made it pretty clear that magic was present in his new world.

He then tried to use the mana to conjure some spells while using the names of some famous spells from his past life.

'Fireball!'

'Explosion!' 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

'Wingardium Leviosa!'

'Water Gun!'

'Earth style, earth bombs!'

'Pichaku I choose you!'

All of his tries resulted in nothing and to add salt to his wounds, the system chuckled in its own mechanical tone.

[ Host, you might set the house on fire if you continue this way. Also, there is a chance that you might end up using what little mana you have and we don't want that happening.]

'Why?' Jason asked, acting completely dumb.

[ Because there is a chance that you will be knocked unconscious for an indefinite time. Good enough reason? ]

Jason couldn't do anything but sigh. He had wanted to try and see if he could use any magic early on but was quite disappointed.

'I guess I just have to wait for someone to teach me or for me to learn myself. Till then, I will enjoy my life.

"Say, grandfather."

"Beh?"

"No, don't beh at me. Call me grandfather or grandpa."

"Beh."

Issac pulled at his hair in frustration as his grandson refused to call him grandpa.

It had been two years since Jason had been brought to Duphia and had been living with his grandparents.

Over the entire year, he only ate, slept, and pooped. That was the best life a child could have had. His grandfather and grandmother had also entertained him during the time so he hadn't been bored.

However, he had to make sure that he didn't slip up or things would have turned extremely difficult for him.

< Language learned: 100% >

With the help of his system, Jason was able to learn the entire language easily though he only responded to things said to him, that too after one or two tries.

'I managed to gain quite a bit of points. If only you would tell me how I could use them.' Jason directed his words towards the system who had been firm on not telling him much about the points.

[ You will know about them when the time comes. ]

As for getting a job class, he had no idea how he was supposed to get one while being a toddler. Nothing strange seemed to happen around him anyway.

"Jason, are you by any chance, pooping?" Seeing his grandson's serious face, Issac couldn't help but wonder if he was pooping.

After all., he would be the one cleaning it.

"Beh (Wish I could). Beh (Would have been a fun thing to see your expression)."

Currently, Jason couldn't speak. According to the system, it would take him a small amount of time before he would start speaking frequently.

He would be able to talk easily before turning three years old.

Issac on the other hand was wondering whether listening to Jason beh all the day managed to help him learn the kid's language too.

For example, he could understand that Jason was making fun of him in some way. This made the grandpa smile.

"Making fun of your grandpa at such a young age huh. I wonder if you landed with my genes there," Issac then patted Jason's head. "Your grandmother should soon be returning with them. Don't let the new kids boss you around."

Hearing his grandpa's words, Jason remembered that Risa had left a month ago or so and hadn't returned since. Issac had told him that she had gone to get some important people and should be returning any minute.

A month had already passed by in such a manner and if not for Jason, Issac would have already left to find where his wife went.

"Someone go and kill that brain-dead king. He should at least help us fend off foreigners yet all he does is sit on that goddamn throne and laze around." Issac openly cursed a person Jason didn't know of.

Today, Issac's mood was shifting between irritated and normal. If Jason was a normal baby, he would have managed to irritate his grandfather with his constant begging for attention.

Being a smart baby on the other hand meant that he could easily do things others couldn't and that was comforting his grandfather.

"Beh."

Issac suddenly turned to look at his grandson with a surprised expression. He could feel that his grandson was urging him to go forward.

"Jason, you don't understand what is happening. I can't leave you no matter what…" He stared into Jason's bright purple eyes which reminded him of his oldest son, Michael. "Your grandmother is a very strong woman and I am not that worried."

Contrary to what he said, Issac's expression remained full of worry. Jason decided to lighten up his grandpa's mood as he stood up from his chair and walked up to his grandfather.

He then tried to reach for his hand while staring upwards which brought a smile to the man's face. Issac bent down and picked Jason up before tickling him.

Jason couldn't help but giggle as his grandfather continued to tickle. However, they were suddenly interrupted by a pounding sound on the door.

For a moment, Jason saw Issac's amber eyes glow golden as dashed up to the second floor in a matter of seconds. Issac entered his own room and pushed open a closet before putting Jason inside.

"Don't make any sound. If I come back, I will say "Melons are better than lemons". Understood?"

"Yes."

"Oh look who can talk now." Issac glared at Jason

The old man then closeed the closet completely as his whole demeanor changed. The joking and playful aura around him completely vanished, leaving behind nothing.

He slowly climbed down the stairs and reached the door. He already had an idea who was there to see him and he was not a big fan of them.

With a quick turn of his hand, Issac opened the door to see nine men standing outside. All of them had black tails wagging behind them.

Their faces and bodies were hidden by a black clothing material while they held swords in their hands.

"Looks like he managed to catch wind of it. Now, I've to deal with you guys." Issac sighed. "Oh well, let's get this over with."
