God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Chapter 45: Affordable Travel Options



The view stayed with Vincent so Kieth wasn\'t able to hear more after Vincent was taken far away from the crowd. But it did not matter as his system gave him access to the information that he needed.

[Quest has been completed. Please get ready to reward the user.]

[Expected rewards: Reveal conditions to unlock Unarmed Combat Arts and free regeneration boost.]

Seeing this, he knew that Vincent was declared the winner. He then let out a soft sigh and closed his eyes before increasing his "intent" to give out the rewards. The moment he did, he felt energy from his body getting drained but it wasn\'t as bad as earlier.

\'Haa... looks like directly unlocking something takes a lot more mental strength compared to revealing the unlock conditions and regeneration. Though, this is getting kinda exciting.\' he thought as he accessed Vincent\'s system.

Unarmed Combat Arts: Beat someone in a fight while using only your arms, legs and head to unlock the skill tree.

"Well, it\'s pretty easy but I guess I\'ll have to get him to earn some money on the side first. He needs nutritious food to build a strong body and he also needs to work out. Too much work... I wonder if there\'s a shortcut." he muttered as he inspected Vincent\'s stats in depth.

One by one, he checked all the skill trees before moving up to Vincent\'s personal stats. When he got to physique, he grinned.

\'Great. I\'ll use physique upgrade in return for money. Let\'s start with 1 Zen for the first upgrade, which is from F to E and from there we can just keep quadrupling it (multiplied by 4) until he reaches SSS grade.\'

After making up his mind, he sent out a new notification to Vincent letting him know about the new feature.

"He\'ll probably buy the E grade once he wakes up, but I\'m a bit too tired right now. Oh well, he can wait." Keith muttered as he leaned back and closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep almost instantly even though he had slept for almost an entire day already.

Five days quickly passed and during this time, Vincent lied on his bed as he focused on recovery while Keith kept an eye on him, feeling extremely bored thanks to the lack of portable entertainment in this world.

During this time, Vincent had bought the E and D grade physiques using the money he received from Keith and the money he made from the underground cage fight, which was 7 Zen. In total, he had 11 Zen and 19 Braks, but after deducting the 5 Zen that he used for the upgrades and almost 9 braks that was spent on food, he only had 6 Zen and 10 Braks.

Just as Keith was watching Vincent in boredom, he heard the carriage driver\'s voice.

"Sire, we have arrived."

"Oh great, give me a second." Keith said as he grabbed his things and climbed out of the carriage before heading straight to the river port where he could see multiple boats lined up to transport people and goods.

Not wanting to waste too much money, he went to the long boat that was behind a large goods ship. Most people picked the long boats for their travels as it cost the least compared to other boats as long as they didn\'t have too much luggage to carry.

Keith with his suitcase and briefcase fit the criteria so he didn\'t bother wasting his money on other boats.

Long boats usually followed one particular path and would drop people off along the way. It was like a public bus back on his old planet, but the long boats only operated on rivers.

He stopped in front of the boat and looked at the man who was handling the tickets, which were basically just small pieces of paper that were stamped like the newspaper tokens that Keith bought a few weeks ago.

"I\'d like to go to Baroma Kingdom. Any district that has Goddess of Protection\'s church will suffice." he said and the guy nodded before using a thin stick to poke a hole on one of the boxes that were printed on the brown ticket.

"Four Braks. The journey will take around five months and we\'ll be making stops at other river ports so that\'s the only time you\'ll get to buy food and take care of your other needs. We\'ll stay at each river port for half a day before moving on. Any questions?"

Keith nodded, "What if I have to take a shit or pee?"

"Pee in the river you idiot. As for shitting, we can stop for you at the banks but you must make it quick. Is that it?"

"Yeah." Keith said, nodding as he walked towards the boat and picked a nice spot for to sit before turning to look at the guy once again, "When are we going to leave?"

The guy turned around and sighed, getting slightly annoyed with Keith, "Based on the number of people coming to us right now, I\'m guessing that we\'ll leave during the night."

He didn\'t look at Keith anymore and went back to staring at the women who were standing outside a well known local pub.

Keith on the other hand, leaned back and directly fell asleep as he knew that the journey would be bumpy and getting quality sleep during that time would be hard. When he woke up, it was almost evening and the boat was also almost filled up.

"Hey, would it be too late if I go and buy some food right now?" he shouted as he looked at the ticket guy, who turned around and nodded, "Go and come back here in an hour. We won\'t be waiting for you."
