I Hate Systems-Chapter 1076 Ahjar’s Might (Part 1)

"Your power of Secret Society has been enhanced to the extreme. In this case," Hazen said after a moment of thought as he inspected himself objectively, "Can't you straight up use it on Stencil? Wouldn't that solve everything?"

"I don't think you're someone that worries about her race as even before this, she was the Dragon of Systems. It had been a long time since she was last human."

"If I could solve it through Secret Society, I wouldn't have to worry in the first place." Compass Carburettor sighed, "Secret Society has one weakness."

"A weakness?" Hazen was surprised, "It has something like that?"

"Yes, naturally." Compass Carburettor smiled wryly, "I can only turn someone into a member when they are whole."

"This means…" Hazen's expression warped as he muttered, "Then, would that mean if I had fragmented myself before, you would have failed in turning me into a member?"

"Pretty much," Compass Carburettor nodded.

"Why is it like this?" Hazen frowned, "I don't think Secret Society had such a restriction when you were the Main Character System."

"It's thanks to my trait of purity and stealing immunity." Compass Carburettor patted himself, "All my powers are purely under my complete control. Moreover, my abilities collapse on their own the moment someone other than me wields them."

"As a result, if I were to target a Grade 2 System or above, they obviously remain in a fragmented state. That means part of them are under me and the remainder is still a System under Zaira's authority." He sighed, "As a result, my own powers would destroy the System fragment that's a Secret Society member."

"I see," Ahjar muttered in realisation, "You wished to ensure your powers can never be stolen. But as a result, it opened such a weakness."

"That's not all," Compass Carburettor glared at Ahjar once before continuing, "Even if I turn a System into a Secret Society member, Zaira still has the data regarding that System. This means she would be able to hijack into Secret Society."

"There are no guarantees, huh." Ahjar nodded.

"Indeed," Compass Carburettor nodded, "I may be strong, but my powers aren't absolute. Killing Systems are fine, since my methods also erase their data in the System World. But everything else is a whole new playing field where Zaira holds superiority."

"Also," Ahjar pointed out another problem, "Fate System might notice the changes. It's a Grade 4 System, we can't underestimate it."

"Yes, there's no guarantee that Secret Society can remain hidden under the Fate System's senses for long." Compass Carburettor nodded, "Therefore, I won't be using it on Systems."

"Even for the both of you, keep things to a minimal." He warned them, "Don't do anything excessive that might alert the Fate System."

"I know about Systems the best," Ahjar snorted as he fist-bumped Hazen and Compass Carburettor, "Then, we'll talk later."

His figure vanished and stealthily appeared in the void of a universe where a System was taking over a world.

Grade 3 System—Monarch (Level 242)!

'This is suitable prey.' Thinking as such, Ahjar activated his power. As he was within an alternate dimension, the Monarch System didn't sense his existence. Moreover, it was currently preoccupied with taking over the world.

This was a Grade 3 System's most vulnerable state, which was why Ahjar arrived at the opportune moment. He knew when a System was the weakest, for he was once a Grade 4 System himself.

Secondary Factor—Shadow!

Ahjar activated his power through the Concept of Space as his figure entered the Monarch System's body. Basically, he turned it into his Host.

This was the exact same power used by Systems. No native had a say in whether or not a System entered their body. It was a concept employed by the Systems at their sole discretion.

Originally, when they were developing this power system while embarking on the path of a System, it was Adventure System that created the means through which a System turned a native into a Host.

And now, employing the topmost concept of the multiverse, Ahjar turned the Monarch System into his Host. Most of all, the Monarch System wasn't even aware of this.

Currently, Ahjar had four abilities in total. His Primary Factor embodied his entire journey, starting from his status as the Adventure System to when he hopped and became different Hatchling Systems.

Primary Factor—Exploration!

It allowed him to travel anywhere he pleased, whether it was a point in space or a position within the body of someone. He faced no restrictions, for he had been accumulating strength regarding this throughout his entire life. It was thanks to this that he hopped Systems and was also able to avoid Lore and Tell-Tale in Faith Grounds.

His Secondary Factor of Shadow was straight up the power he condensed as the Secondary System. Now fuelled by the concept of Space, it was on a whole other level, capable of hiding even within Grade 3 Systems.

Once he had fused with the Monarch System, Ahjar calmly gathered all data regarding its abilities and observed what it did with the world.

And then, he slightly tweaked the essence of the world, causing the natives that adapted to the new power system to gain a couple of minor quirks.

Depending on the type of world it was originally, even when a Grade 3 System uses its Core Skills, the world would only progress accordingly, influenced by its Core Skill to proceed naturally from its original state.

A technological world when introduced with the Apocalypse System's Core Skill would create a scenario where people would roam the ruins of the city with guns. Even though society had collapsed, its knowledge didn't.

So, over time, the survivors would recreate the technology, this time integrating with the introduced power system. A gun would function the same as before, but this time, a Zombie Core would be used to fuel its activation, same for computers, cars, etc.

The technological essence wouldn't entirely vanish.

Similarly, if a cultivation world was influenced by the Apocalypse System's Core Skill, the survivors would eventually erect Sects and Clans.

Moreover, they would figure out a new mode of cultivation that relies upon the factors that caused the apocalypse in the first place.

Both worlds were influenced by the same Core Skill, but their direction into an apocalyptic scenario is different. So, all worlds derive new results under the same Core Skills.

Therefore, the Monarch System didn't notice anything amiss with the power system created in the world. The tweaks were very minor, after all.
