My World Traveling System: The Harbinger Of Death

___________________

[Farming Technique Scroll (D-Grade)]

​​

An ancient Scroll that possesses magical scriptures, anyone that reads it would acquire the legendary farming techniques taught by the Goddess of Harvest to the humans of ancient times, so they could take care of the world and its nature, and to thrive on their new lives.

___________________

"Quite straightforward… Although I doubt that Farming Techniques would be useful in battle, in Terra I would be doing a lot of farming, so it will be useful there to gain Gwendolyn's trust through my effort" said Frank, as a system window appeared before his sight.

Ding!

[Technique Scroll Detected]

[Do you desire to learn the [Farming Technique: Level 1] Skill?]

[>YES NO]

"Yes," said Frank.

Flash!

Suddenly, a burst of energy entered Frank's entire body as his mind received a stream of information about various ways of moving the ground and taking care of plans, alongside this, he earned how to 'sense' plants and also, to an extent, how to communicate with them through their Mana.

[Due to your knowledge about Farming and about how to take care of Plants, you have acquired the [Farming Technique: Level 1] Skill!]

When Frank learned the Skill, the scroll crumbled into pieces into the ground, as the pieces glowed in bright yellow light and disappeared.

"I got it… And this information… My head hurt- Ah, it is gone... World's Traveler Body must have made my mind adapt to the information, I suppose?" said Frank as he stood up once again, stretching, and then… he realized something.

"Wait, I need farming tools to even use these techniques… I guess I will be trying them at Gwendolyn's farm…" thought Frank.

"Now, let us see this tasty price I got, perhaps it might have something that can help me in this convoluted life that I got now? Perhaps it is the system way to give me a way to cope with it, rewarding me with shiny things…" said Frank, taking out of his Inventory a small treasure chest that shined in the colors of the rainbow.

This was an item he acquired after having completed the hidden quest of forging a faction in Tokyo. He inspected it to find its name and a bit of its information.

___________________

[Rainbow Commemorative Reward Package (D-Grade)]

A Mysterious Treasure Chest that can bring a random gift item from Grades F to D that you would otherwise acquire by buying it in the APP Shop or acquiring it in the APP Gacha, disappears after one use.

"In resume, it's just a one-time gacha pull in a pool of random items…" thought Frank.

Frank was deeply knowledgeable about the predatory microtransaction mechanics named Gacha, which were incredibly popular in mobile games, especially those present in the Asian market such as the Japanese APP Store.

He had played through countless gachas, pulled through many spins and wheels, and acquired many trash heroes and items that would never be used other than as scrapable materials. At some point, Frank could not bear such terrible games anymore and only stayed with the ones of the highest quality that he had a strong connection with, such as Knights of Arthur.

Frank then glanced at the chest as he tried to open it, but it seemed tightly closed.

"Ugh, System please, stop seeing me suffer and just let me open it"

Ding!

[Treasure Chest detected]

[Do you desire to open the [Rainbow Commemorative Reward Package (D-Grade)] Item?]

[>YES NO]

"…Yes," said Frank.

Flash!

The treasure chest suddenly opened wide, as a flash of bright light emerged from within.

The treasure chest suddenly turned into yellow particles and dissipated into nothingness, as an ovular item was left behind.

"…Eh? An egg?"

It was an egg of the size of an Ostrich Egg, whose eggshell was completely red-colored, it had flame-like patterns decorating it as if they were painted into it, and through the egg, Frank could feel a warm presence resting inside.

___________________

[Lesser Flame Salamander Egg (F-Grade)]

The Egg of a Lesser Flame Salamander, a reptile-type monster with the Element Attribute of Fire, originating from the world of Monsters and Monster Tamers of Gaia.

Lesser Flame Salamanders are proactive creatures that are always looking for challenges to sharpen their strength and capabilities, ideal for a Monster Tamer that is always willing to go on an adventure.

The egg will hatch at any moment!

___________________

"An egg?! Really? How can an egg come out of a treasure chest? Are you… for real?! And it's the Flame Salamander from the Monster Catcher Tale Game! It's actually one of the starters… So even such a thing is an item in this strange system? Does it mean that the items I get come from the APP Worlds I can visit?" wondered Frank, as the egg began to crack just after a few seconds of appearing in front of his sight.

Crack, crack!

Frank could not help but realize that he was finally getting a companion that might be able to travel with him through all the worlds he will visit…

"Wait, this is way too soon! I am not prepared!" said Frank, as the egg cracked, at last, the eggshells fall apart as an adorable, scaled snout appears out of the egg, sniffing the air around.

Then…

Crash!

The egg explodes in a burst of fire as Frank has his face slightly burnt… which quickly healed through Gift of Life.

"GRAWL!"

A small lizard-like creature begins crawling on the floor while releasing small coughs charged with hot flames. Its body was small and chunky, and it was covered in red and orange scales across its body, its eyes were gold, while the irises were crimson red.

"Graawl! Graawl!"

It quickly noticed Frank as it quickly walked towards him with enthusiasm, its eyes shining brightly with emotion and happiness.

"Grawl, grawl!"

"Wait a second!" said Frank, as he tried to move away from the small lizard, he had never seen a real-life lizard in his entire life, nor one that could breathe flames, he was simply afraid of taking more damage from its flames… but it was also a bit afraid of its razor-sharp fangs.

However, his mind suddenly calmed down as he began to think things through.

"Well, I suppose it has just been born, it probably needs to have some kind of contact with me so we can form a bond quickly… just like in that game, when you hatched a monster, you needed to do a bond with it so it would become your tamed monster, or it would else try to attack you whenever it grew bigger," he thought, approaching the lizard as he resisted the slight pain of its blazing coughs.

"Ouch… Ouch… Ouch… There, there, I am here for you… Aren't you the cutest thing?" said Frank, grabbing the salamander as it looked at him right into his eyes.

"Grawl!" it roared lovingly, rubbing its scaled snout over Frank's face, and then taking its tongue out and licking him as if the creature were a dog.

"Ahhh… you're very sticky are you not?"

"GRAA!"

Flash!

Suddenly, the salamander coughed again as it released a burst of flames over Frank's face.

"Ouch! Gift of Life! Gift of Life! …Ah, I'm fine now" said Frank, as two uses of Gift of Life brought him back to full heal again, alongside emptying his Mana reserves, which had recovered by a bit when he opened all the items.

Ding!

[Due to having to bear the pain of being burnt and resisted it, you have acquired the [Fire and Burn Resistance: Level 1] Skill!]

"Ah, maybe encountering you was a good opportunity to get a useful Skill… But I seriously need Mana Potions if I want to survive your bursts of fire… Can you control yourself a bit?" asked Frank.

"Grawl… Grawl!" roared the salamander, biting Frank's nose as a response to his question.

"Ouuch! Stop it! I can't heal myself at the moment, you know?" said Frank.

"Grawl? Grawl!"

The flame salamander then licked Frank's nose as he suddenly felt a bit better.

"Does its saliva have healing properties…? No way…" muttered Frank, as he received another system notification.

[You have formed a bond with the monster [Rank 1: Lesser Flame Salamander: Unnamed]!]

"Ah, so the bond was made!" said Frank with a happy smile, as he then began to think about a name for his tamed companion.

"Wait, are you a girl or a boy?" he asked, as he wondered if the Salamander might have a status of sorts…

"Graaa…!"

Ding!

[Name: Unnamed

[Race: Lesser Flame Salamander

[Titles: Tamed Monster.

[Gender: Female.

[Types: Reptile/Fire

"You actually have a status! And your stats are almost the same as mine?! But you are so tiny… I suppose I cannot underestimate a Monster after all… And those Skills seems interesting… Licking Wounds? Is that why its saliva has some healing properties? Ah, right! You're a girl!" said Frank in surprise.

"Graaaaaa!" said the salamander, licking Frank's burnt nose until the wound disappeared from him, but he was left all sticky.

"Thanks for your consideration… Now, how should I name you? …Ah! I will just name you like I called your version in the game… Ruby!" said Frank with an almost kid-like smile, he was really happy to finally have his own monster pet.

"Graaawl!"

Ding!

[The name [Ruby] has been decided for your Monster Pet!]
