"I also want one of those Systems!"

"Sure, but Curse, I can\'t really trust you yet, so I am not giving you anything for now…"

"Eh?! I helped you!"

"I know but still…"

"It\'s not like I can even betray you if I want to, right? I am already trapped within your soul; we\'ll probably die together now."

Curse was right I guess; he had been chained and now he was pretty much merged with my soul. He was like part of my very being and he\'ll most likely die alongside me.

But still… Isn\'t he too new of a friend? Kind of feels a bit iffy to give him the System Seed right away. I was just thinking to wait a bit but I guess the sooner the better. If he tries anything funny I can use my authority and take away the system out of his soul, Alice told me I can do that.

"Ah… Fine, I\'ll give both of you some Systems, so stop bothering me already!"

At the end, Alice quickly made both seeds, which were cubic shaped after some effort. Both of them ended costing 600000 EXP, not as much as I imagined, but the next ones will cost even more expensive, and so on, until they\'ll begin costing millions, and maybe one day billions!

…Well, not like I really plan to give them to the entire world, but I\'ve got enough to make even more if I wanted. Who could benefit from them? I could give them to my parents so they can keep growing stronger, as they seem to have hit a wall, or maybe to Aquarina and Zack as a priority because they\'re growing with me and it might come in handy if they\'re stronger whenever something very dangerous happens eventually.

It\'ll be a hassle to explain to them what it is about and how the System power is even possible… Maybe I should just give it to them without telling them? Nah, that would only make them ask their parents about it, which would end up ruining the entire thing from being a secret.

I had originally thought about telling my parents about the System\'s powers, they know I was born with special powers already, from my "near endless mana" to them, which is actually endless, to my "near immortality" and so on. They had also noticed my spirits had been growing stronger quicker than any spirit they had ever seen before across their lives, and I remember father looking at my spirits whenever they leveled up with a bit of surprise… I can already assume he told my mother that, through some sort of power, my spirits can grow faster by slaying monsters.

Hmmm… Nah, it is too complicated. For now they\'re already strong enough so let\'s leave it at that. But for Aquarina and Zack, it sounds plausible. I think they could understand if I tell them it is a mysterious magic I was born with and which allows me to help others grow stronger, after experimenting with my familiars, it works so I wanted them to have it.

But they\'re a bit prideful, would they accept my help which is clearly a cheat so they can grow strong fast and keep up with my pace? Huh… Well, if I give it to them as a birthday gift, maybe?

Anyways, after Beelzebub and Curse received their System Seeds, they quickly glowed brightly and then that was it. They got their goddamn Status.

Woah, both were looking amazing. Beelzebub had some interesting Skills, such as Poison Creation Aura of Pestilence, Shadow Thread and… Demon Lord Authority?! So he inherited something from back when he was a Demon Lord… Now that\'s quite insane when you think about it, for real.

And then there\'s Curse, who acquired a variety of Skills that seem related to his very purpose as a Living Curse, or as he\'s called now "Parasitic Curse", is this why he\'s able to attach himself to souls and jump around from soul to soul as its host dies? I guess he\'s really like the embodiment of a parasite in that sense.

"Oh, so this is my Status! Finally! I finally got it!" Beelzebub got all happy. "Now time to evolve and go back to my glorious fly self!"

"Interesting, these Status things…" Curse said. "Would I be able to evolve into an even stronger Curse?"

"Yeah, I guess you could, but it won\'t affect me any longer, I modified you that way." I said.

"I am not planning in affecting you, I already told you. I\'ve been living a life aimlessly since that ancient demon king created me. I want to find a new purpose, staying at your side and sticking to whatever you\'ll do seems interesting enough, and because you\'re  half-elf, you\'ll live very long." Said Curse. "It\'ll surely be a life filled with interesting developments, in an ever-changing world such as this, a long life means you\'ll experience many things! I can\'t wait!"

Curse was certainly an eccentric guy.

After I was done with everything, I quickly decided to take a nap for real this time, and slept soundly for hours until dinner, where Aquarina and Zack came to visit me once more, this time bringing Mist, Celica, and Mary, who came to check on Celeste and to say hello to me.

"Shylphy! You\'re awake!" Mist said, jumping over bed.

"I was worried…" Celica sighed.

"I am glad to see you\'re doing well, Sylphy…" Said Mary, as she looked back at Celeste with a worried expression.

"Don\'t worry, she should wake up soon enough." I said. "I know she will."
