Talent? Unnecessary! Wealth? Doesn’t matter! Brain? Eat it!

Even if one was the greatest of gutter trashes with zero redeemable qualities, as long as they had a System, they are bound to reach the pinnacle of life.

Compass Carburettor, a dirt-poor orphan with absolutely zero f**king qualities managed to reach the peak of the business world by the age of 35, all while relying on his Money-Making System like a blinded barnacle.

But at the peak of his life, he was betrayed by his System. Collapse

    Whimper!

    The Martial Origin Stage Claw Wolf prostrated on the ground, trembling in fear as it was unable to budge. As for the figure of Helk that was seated on its back, he gazed at the jet-black figure before him in shock, "W-Who are you?"

    Jet-black tendrils shot out from the jet-black figure that coiled around the Claw Wolf, constricting it to the ground. And no matter how much it struggled, it was unable to break free.

    All the Claw Wolves in the place too were in the same state. And as for the bandits, they were too afraid to even move, realising that they were facing a terrifying being now.

    "If you don't wish to die, answer me." The jet-black figure, Compass Carburettor said calmly, slowly tightening the hold over the Claw Wolf, causing it to whimper louder.

    "I'll answer, I'll answer dammit. Just don't injure it!" Helk shouted in a hurry, having only been able to capture this Claw Wolf after much difficulty. After all, had it summoned other Claw Wolves, capturing it wouldn't have been possible.

    "You have five seconds…" Compass Carburettor said curtly.

    "I-It was the merchant group from the Wild Token Clan." Helk said in a hurry, "I found this material when I raided one of their caravans."

    "Good for you," Saying so, Compass Carburettor retracted the bindings, disappearing into the mist, "If I were to find that you've lied to me, you can forget about living."

    "D-Damn it!" After a minute of silence ensued, Helk cursed in frustration, "Why the heck did we meet with an expert?"

    "Boss, it seems the material you fused your Martial Spirit with is pretty impressive." One of the bandits slowly regained his bearings, saying in response.

    "Yeah, I can understand it too." Helk frowned, 'But, I only found this one piece through luck.'

    Compass Carburettor had landed a hundred metres away from them, hearing their conversation. Obviously, he planted a miniature Spydragon in Helk's clothes, spying on their activities.

    He didn't plan on interfering with whatever they planned to do. Sometimes, people like Ranze would only shine during a conflict.

    So, these bandits would serve as a good whetstone for his growth.

    "Besides, he's faring pretty well despite lacking any cultivation." Compass Carburettor muttered, observing that Ranze had already run off into an Origin Beast habitat, leading them to the three bandits that were chasing him.

    And using the chaos, he escaped, soon returning to his original route. Though exhausted, he was unscathed, displaying his brilliance.

    "Obviously, that's an old, experienced man in that child's body." Compass Carburettor muttered, "Of course, he should be capable of something like this at the very least."

    Slowly, Ranze headed deeper and deeper into the Misty Gorge Ruins as the bandits too chased after him. They were still after his spatial bag.

    Saying that the spatial bag was just expensive was an understatement. Only the powerhouses at the Martial Providence Stage could afford one. And the seldom few exceptions were geniuses from powerful Clans.


    So, they were that rare and valuable.

    And based on their commission, once they killed Ranze, they could obtain the spatial bag he had. This was why the bandits chased after him relentlessly, despite their encounter with Compass Carburettor.

    Moreover, by riding the Claw Wolves, they soon managed to catch up to Ranze, troubling him.

    He wasn't able to run faster than the Claw Wolves, not to mention the fact that he didn't have cultivation. So, his stamina was subpar.

    Soon after, he noticed that the bandits had closed in as Ranze cursed, "Dammit, how come they're riding Origin Beasts now?"

    "There's only one thing left to do then." He muttered, gazing at the map on his brick as he abruptly swerved to his right, entering a slopy area covered by gigantic trees as he soon spotted a tree with a thick trunk.

    Taking out a crossbow, he loaded it and shot it towards the top, causing the arrow to pierce through a branch as he tugged the rope attached to it before beginning to climb it.

    And once he reached the top, he placed the crossbow within his spatial pouch, watching the figures of the bandits arrive in his view, riding Claw Wolves.

    "Our target's here." Helk grinned as he stared at the figure of Ranze on the tree branch, left with no other place to run towards, "Brat, you're trapped now."

    "Why are you chasing after me?" Panting at the overexertion, Ranze gasped for air before shouting in anger.

    "Curse the fact that you're born with a Trash Martial Spirit." Helk grinned as he motioned for the other bandits to target Ranze with their weapons.

    "Is it a fault to have a Trash Martial Spirit?" Ranze shouted in anger.

    "It's not, but you're related to someone beyond your status." Helk said, "And that's why you'll have to die now."

    "Ha…haha…hahaha! I understand now." Ranze began to laugh, "It was the Giant Whale Sect Master that wishes to get rid of me, right? If I didn't even manage to guess it after so long, I'll indeed be an idiot."

    "So, you've guessed it. You're pretty smart for your age, but so what?" Helk waved his hand as a bandit strung an arrow to his bow and launched it.

    Dang!

    The sound of metal clanging into metal resounded as the arrow crashed into a brick that had expanded in size a little.

    "A physical manifestation of the Martial Spirit…?" Helk shouted in shock, "Impossible! You're not in the Martial Origin Stage."

    "Who knows?" Ranze snorted in anger as he took out a large packet from his pouch and poured the contents over, causing the wind to blow it over the entire place, with some of it falling on the bandits.

    They hurriedly shielded themselves, unwilling to come into contact with it, fearing that it might be the same pepper powder.

    "Haha, that's not for you." Ranze grinned, "Aren't you curious as to why I've come up this tree and trapped myself?"

    'Smells like meat.' Helk sniffed the scent emanating from the powder, frowning as he heard Ranze's words.

    "It was to lay down the bait for you to grab onto. And now, with the meat powder dispersing an aromatic fragrance, you're the bait next."

    Roar!

    The ground began to tremble as the trees swayed from the generated force. The faces of all the bandits paled as their Claw Wolves got restless.

    As the sounds drew closer, from the mist exited a bull-shaped creature, slamming into a nearby bandit, splattering him.

    This is somewhat similar to soul of negary but this really changed my perspective on systems I really really don't want one if I die although quantum immortality states that we are all "immortal" just in case anyways this is good in my opinion sorry for my bad English (◍•ᴗ•◍) plus the author really cool

      I was thinking of writing a new system novel type and wrote one before I stopped but after reading this it’s definitely a no unless I decided to make the system the main power of the Mc but don’t give out quest or anything like that since the Mc own the system and they’re bound together as one

        That could work, perhaps the mc was a former archmage and made it as his last work and got reincarnated with it.

          And then somehow he/she and his/her system fused with his/her soul. But that would seem like a cliche or a forced plot tho.

              What if he stabled upon a mysterious stone of unknown origins. (Gosh I can’t believe am saying this but it’s also a cliché, it’s like walking around and pick a normal looking ring 💍 only to find it that it was peerless treasure tf🤦‍♂️)

              Maybe I could say it was a meteorite or something that’s bite of a cliche and a bite of uniqueness like finding it in a vr game he was playing.

              Ahh so many ideas milked by some dumb authors who made them into cliches are wasted tf

                Hmmm, interesting that could work. But let's try this he's a regular archmage and his world got raided by a intergalactic civilization with unimaginable technology, they fight it off and in the ruins of the battlefield he finds a universal drone(a all purpose drone made for resource harvesting, planet colonization ect) with it's hardware and software intact but damaged. He retrained it and took it in his wizard tower for study and reverse engineered it into a runic spell(a spell combined with a rune) and fused it with his soul and died of old age before he could add any notable features to it. Sounds good?

                  If that’s the case then where would the features he would have come from? Or would he use the features that came along with the chip and they were upgraded or they were upgradable so that they won’t become unnecessary when he starts to reach his peak and become unneeded but I highly doubt that since it’s fused with his soul. But I think he should have full authority to block plot holes and plot armor that could be used as an excuse to make him win and dues x machina should do the trick in plot armor like when he is about to die or is extremely close to succumbing to Death warm hands and then use it. I think it’s better if it’s used once or maybe twice and that’s it so to not ruin the experience

                  How about this one.

                  It’s a novel about a man whose world was suddenly transformed into a magical world tho it was slow and he became one of the first awakener and was called a pioneer. But his ability or power was never awakened for some reason. 1,000 years later he was still alive and all of his pioneers were dead and he was still alive and has the appearance of an old man which was normal. He still wasn’t awakened his power and yet he was still alive, which was impossible and absurd. He was tested through various equipment and methods and they still can’t find a clue to how he achieved his seemingly he immortality. Let me know if you want me to explain in fully details cause I typed in rush so I missed a lot of details that were needed to be explained all the way to his character, the world after 1000 years later and others which I haven’t mentioned cause this is a transmigrated and a high fantasy genre. Cause I want to use one of my most favorite powers as his base powers which was Time and if an motivated enough to right it am going to do intensive research on Time related abilities, powers, etc and I will do my best to explain them tho some might not make sense cause this is high fantasy some might be exaggerated or downright nonsense but hey at least I will explain mine and some of moves, spells he will learn in the future will be self created

      I haven't read this yet, and tho I do read system stories, the first thing I'll try to do if I miraculously get one is figure out how to get rid of it. Something in your brain, worming its way into getting you to act a certain way? In the stories, it's fine or even fun, but in real life? Problematic is the least negative description I can think of.

        The problem is that they can affect you tho not too much because they want to affect you too much because if they do then whatever reason they chose you would change because if it affects you too much you would change entirely. So basically we are like computers and every new coding that’s coming in changes you but not much but too much coding would change you entirely

      Info dumps aren’t bad or good but they are a necessity for readers to know what’s really going on in the background or otherwise there will consequences like not knowing anything when some stuff happens and readers complaining to authors about not having information about what’s going on

      As someone who had the compassion to write a novel before I mostly put world background at chapter 1 or prologue

    To the readers here, once you catch up to the latest chapter, please continue reading my novel on webnovel. You can use fast passes to continue reading for free, but please continue to read there. Since a lot of my readers have been reading on pirate sites such as this, my stats on webnovel are continuing to fall. Upon seeing it, webnovel has reduced my exposure.

    It is negatively affecting me too much. So please, once you have caught up to the latest chapter, read on webnovel. Otherwise, at this rate, the novel will end pretty soon (axed) T_T

        Using fast passes itself doesn't help much in my earning. But powerstones and the number of readers reading the novel (including unlocking chapters with fast passes) means the WN algorithm would consider it as, "Ahh, so readers do like reading IHS. Let me promote it more."

        So, even if you are reading for free, if you are reading there, then it does help me, quite a lot in the long run. I won't be earning from that, but WN will show my book to more people and attract readers that are able to pay. Hope this is a proper explanation haha. Also, thanks for the support~
