My Power is Upgrading Everything (Rewrite)

Chapter 3: 1st Quest

--- Chapter 3 ---

"Evo, can you show me your function?" Huo Yuhao called upon the new system.

[Right away, host]

[1. Status]

[2. Inventory]

[3. Quest] f reeweb novel.com

[4. Upgrade]

He stared at the system panel silently for a moment because the first three functions were pretty self-explanatory. He read too many novels and stories to know these things.

'What a good old day when a gun isn't on my head 24/7.' He thought to himself. His sense of awareness has returned to some degree, making everything clear for him.

Huo Yuhao circulated his breathing and continued, "What's the upgrade?"

[Upgrade function is the central ability of the system, giving a

chance to upgrade everything, whether living beings or not. For example, you can upgrade yourself, bloodline, weapons, and martial techniques to the highest stage possible]

"That's a bit broken." Huo Yuhao commented with a grin. "Then upgrading my talent should be possible right?"

[That's possible]

[However, the Upgrade function is only usable when you have UT]

"UT??" A frown appeared on Huo Yuhao's young face.

[Upgrade Tickets, you can think about it like a currency of the Greatest Upgrading System]

[And you can only get [UT] through Quest]

I'm back!" Huo Yun'er walked into the cottage with a bucket filled with river water. She went to the small kitchen and boiled the water for Huo Yuhao.

"Welcome back." Huo Yuhao smiled at Huo Yun'er. He observed her physical condition skillfully and saw a few bruises on her knee, which left him cold inside. They lived in the forest behind the White Tiger's mansion, and no one ever visited them.

"Are you okay? Your knee..."

Huo Yun'er covered her knee with a cloth and let out a clueless chuckle. "I'm fine." She replied naturally, not wanting to make him worried.

She quickly changed the topic to a few things related to Spirit Master because the old Huo Yuhao wanted to become one in the future. And Huo Yuhao entertained the fact and listened to her explanation.

He's not a child, but Huo Yun'er obviously doesn't want to make a fuss about her problem, which is sad. After five minutes, the water boiled, and she brought the kettle to the table, waiting for it to cool down.

"Ah, It's about time for breakfast in the mansion..." Huo Yun'er panicked as the sun was about to rise. She worriedly looked at her son because his condition was not best to be left alone.

Huo Yuhao took this chance and said, "Don't worry, mom. You can go to work. I'll be fine alone."

"Eh? B-But..." Huo Yun'er was stunned by her son's sudden statement. Since when did Huo Yuhao become so mature?

"No, but! You can go to work without worrying about me. I can take care of myself." The child proudly continued, which caused Huo Yun'er to giggle a little.

Huo Yun'er hugged Huo Yuhao and gave him a peck on the forehead. She left after telling him to stay inside and don't wander around today.

"I'll be back at noon, okay? Don't wander around like yesterday because you might encounter people from the mansion." She warned for the last time.

He nodded like a good child and responded, "Mhm."

...

"Evo, give me a quest."

[Ding! You have received a quest]

[Quest: 1st Training]

[Objective: Do 100 sit-ups, pushups, and squads followed by one-kilometer runs]

[Reward: Starter Pack and 1x Gold Upgrading Ticket]

"What a tedious quest." Huo Yuhao wryly chuckled because it would be hard to finish those goals with his twig-like body. At least it's not impossible, like killing one hundred thousand years old spirit beasts.

"Is a Gold Upgrading Ticket rare?"

[Yes, Upgrading Tickets have different grade]

[Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Black Gold, Platinum, Amethyst, Gold Amethyst, and Lastly Platinum Amethyst. Each grade has a different upgrade chance and possibility]

[Do you want to know about the exact percentage?]

"Kept going." Huo Yuhao nodded and slowly crouched on the ground to start his task. He began with sit-ups and pushed this child's body to the limit. It took him an hour to do it while feeling light-headed.

A few hours later, Huo Yuhao rested on the floor and breathed heavily. He had never felt so tired, even when he was getting trained by his past life's mother.

"This makes me remember things from my past lives."

[You have finished the 1st Training Quest] Evo's monotonous voice echoed in his mind.

[You have obtained a starter pack and 1x Gold Upgrading Ticket]

"Give me a description, please?" A smirk appeared on Huo Yuhao's face.

[Noted]

[Name: Starter Pack]

[Type: Treasure Box]

[Grade: A]

[Description: A treasure box filled with beginner items to help host in his future endeavors]

[Name: Gold Upgrading Ticket]

[Type: System Currency/Upgrading Ticket]

[Grade: Gold/S]

[Description: An upgrading ticket with a 90% chance to upgrade any item into S Grade. And a 10% chance to reach SS Grade]

"Hoh." Huo Yuhao breathed in to calm his nerves, staring at the system panel with an intrigued look. The Gold Upgrading Ticket has more value than he expects.

"Evo, you said the Upgrade Function can upgrade everything, right?'

[Indeed]

[Do you want to upgrade something, host?]

"I want to upgrade you." He replied, which gained a silence from the system.

[Request Denied]

[I'm afraid that's impossible with a Gold Upgrading Ticket...]

[Please choose another item to upgrade, host]

Huo Yuhao shrugged and added, "Worth a try. You can't blame me because you said Upgrade Function could upgrade everything. Is that a loophole in your system?"

[...]

"Don't be quiet like that. I'm just joking around, you know." His smirk widened. Evo said it's impossible with Gold Upgrading Ticket but doesn't say anything about higher grade UT.

Huo Yuhao pondered for minutes about his option to upgrade because there was a wide variety of it. He had to think outside the box, using the Gold Upgrading Ticket to its maximum value. He could have upgraded his body, but that was too basic.

Anything is possible.

"Evo, does the starter pack give random items? If so, my luck should affect it, no?"

[No]

[Starter Pack doesn't give you random items for your beginner's journey but is reassured. Everything inside the pack truthfully is deemed to be beneficial for you]

"I see, never mind then. I was about to complain if the starter pack is like gacha." Huo Yuhao despised the low rate of Gacha-related things. He spent a couple of hundred dollars in the past to get a five stars weapon and ended up with nothing.

Huo Yuhao wanted to upgrade his luck, but since the starter pack isn't related to such an attribute. It would be better to upgrade other things first.

"I'm thinking too hard. At this point, I'll never use the Gold Upgrading Ticket."

He sighed and said, "Evo, use the Gold Upgrading Ticket on the Starter Pack."

[Excellent Choice, host]

[You have used Gold Upgrading Ticket on Starter Pack]

[Upgrading...]

[...]

[You have acquired the Greatest Starter Pack]

[Name: Greatest Starter Pack]

[Type: Treasure Box]

[Grade: SS]

[Description: A treasure box filled with several SS grade items to help host in his future endeavors]

"Easy." Huo Yuhao's smirk broadened into a grin.
