I Became A System

"Groooh!"

The Broaxen beast was leaping and excitedly looking at me… It was really true that he could see me! And I never thought that the system would give me this benefit.

What happened to the kid? He turned into a big young beast. 

Also, just looking at him or her, a window appeared before me, showing everything about the kid.

Name: ???

Beast Type: Broaxen Summon (Previously Mutated Broaxen)

Summon Type: Physical Attribute

Power Level: Legendary Rank (SSS Rank)

Master: Aaron

Level of Affection: 80%

Name… I should name this kid. It also appears that this kid was a male. How could I tell? It's because of some small lump hiding between his legs. It was gross to check but still helpful.

It also seems like I am getting used to this system. And also, I understand some as information emerges in my mind. 

Some of it was about how to tame and summon. I can tame and hide them in some hidden dimension that has been provided by the system, and also summon them when I need or want to.

It wasn't complicated at all. It's enjoyable and made me feel like I had a Pokémon. But still… that childhood information is useless to me as this was beyond Pokémon.

There are some details that describe what this child is.

A legendary rank, also known as the SSS rank! Its power and potential are beyond those who are in the dukedom. No monster or any beast could be compared to him. 

But it made me think that it was just his rank and not his actual power. Maybe he was still immature and was just at the rank but didn't have the power equal to his rank.

Also, level of affection? What is that?...

Oh! I got the information. Luckily, there is information in the system.

[Level of Affection] is the level of power he can have while being related to me. That is, if our connection improved by 100%, the Legendary Rank's full potential would emerge and erect.

It's amazing! There's nothing greater after this for the meantime. I guess! Hahaha!

"Aaron. What happened? Can you tell me? You're smiling there like crazy."

I snapped back to reality as I heard Ellena's call. She was looking at me with curious eyes and was expecting something from me. 

I just smiled at her and told her everything I could tell her.

"That kid, before, he was a monster. But right now, he has become a summon beast." I said.

"Summon beast?" she asked, raising her brows with her question.

I nodded.

"Indeed, it's a summon beast and something unknown to this world. Also, it's because of another system I unlocked." I revealed to her. And as she heard it, her eyes widened.

"So you unlocked another one? How could that happen? I mean, I didn't level up."

"Right. That theory of mine was flawed. And it clearly explains that I am independent of you, Ellena."

As I said it, a smile curled up on Ellena's lips.

"That's great! Does that mean that you'll have a body without following the Evolution Tree?" she asked.

She's smart and observant. But I couldn't think of an answer to her question. As I am also still unaware of things, I need to study some.

Ellena was being thoughtful. She's excited for me to have my own body, but we shouldn't hasten things. I mean, I have a body, a different one, to be honest.

We should still focus on her having the strength to oppose future threats. But of course, I couldn't say it to her. I couldn't tell her that everything that we were preparing was for the dimensional chaos, also known as demons.

When they get populated in every dungeon, that will be the time I'll reveal things to her.

"I don't know. But isn't this great too! I can have a proxy to help you fight." I said with an optimistic tone. 

However, Ellena's face gloomed.

"It's still preferable if you fight with me directly, rather than through a proxy."

Yeah, right. Was she expecting that time too? We're the same. But she must accept things.

"But I can wait. I will try to be friends with this… big fellow." Ellena pointed at the kid.

Right. I still didn't give him a name. 

I chuckled as it was irresponsible for me to not give him a name. And now that I am thinking of it, I can't think of anything. I also don't know if my naming sense is good.

I don't want to be stupid, you know.

"I should probably give him a name, right?" 

That was a stupid remark.

"You should."

Right. But I still don't have an idea what's the best name for him. 

Well, should I think of a name with a meaning or something normal? Welp, it's not bad to give him something appropriate, right?

Since his attributes were physical, he should have specialized in strength.

"Cules," I said.

Why so? Because of Hercules and yeah. Cules would be appropriate as Hercules is overused, I think.

"Cules…"

The kid leaped as he heard the name. And just as I was worried about it, the ground shook as if it wasn't a normal leap. It was a high leap.

"Okay. Calm down." I said to Cules as he was overjoyed at receiving a name. And I also didn't expect that the window would be updated.

[Level of Affection: 87%]

It wasn't bad. Still, if I estimate his power with the standard, it's above the majority. And even if I haven't seen his real powers, I could just assume that his rank was Legendary.

I smiled at him and caressed his side, and he replied with a smile as well. His eyes were still teary though. And even though he was overly large, he was still cute.

Now… for the next thing. Will he be friendly to Ellena? Because it would be useless to have him as my proxy if he's hostile towards her.

"Ellena, how about trying petting him?" I said to Ellena.

She just looked at me with a disbelieving expression.

"Is it okay?" she asked.

"Don't ask me that. Try it." I said as I jokingly pointed out Cules.

Ellena slowly approached Cules, but before she could do so, Cules jumped over her and embraced her with his huge arms.

I chuckled as I saw a cute scene.

"It looks like he's okay with you now, Ellena," I said.
