Chapter 9 - 08: System Terminal, Buying Skills, and Differences Between Skills

"System Terminal, you are upgraded, right?" Sai asked out of curiosity.

{Yes.}

"Upgrade, you say. I can't see any changes though." (Sai)

{Host didn't look at the changes. Features have increased in quality and quantity. Shop increased the quality and variety of the merchandise and lowered the price. Inventory increased its size; it should be as wide as the Eurasia. Gacha, Fusion, and Craft was added after the upgrade. Memory and intelligence went changes and is not inferior to a human.}

"Ah, now that you mentioned it. But if that is the only change then it's disappointing." (Sai)

{What is the cause of the host's disappointment?}

"Your voice. It's still the same as ever, cold and mechanical. You said that you're not inferior to a human but you're still in the AI stage no, you're lower than that. I can't see any semblance of a human in you." (Sai)

{What can the host suggest to this System Terminal, so that your expectations can be reached?}

"First, change your voice." (Sai)

{Please elaborate, host.}

"It's just like I said, change your voice. Change it to a human-like voice." (Sai)

{Insufficient data. Aside from data receive from the Main System it is not allowed to request for irrelevant data.}

"Just get the data from me. You can access my memories and knowledge, right? I already prepared the data needed." (Sai)

{Understood, please excuse me.}

(If my brain is like a computer then, the system terminal has accessed that folder. As for what are the contents of the folder, it is easy to guess from the folder name. The folder name is-) (Sai)

{Voice test, 1, 2 ,3.}

"Yukina Minato!" Sai exclaimed in a monotone voice.

Ignoring the System Terminal's question, Sai is focusing on the fact that the terminal managed to imitate---no, can you call that imitation? It is exactly the same tone in Sai's memories, if you set aside the AI feeling on the voice, there's no mistake that it is Yukina's voice.

(If the terminal managed to do then, it might be possible.) (Sai)

{Host, please respo---}

"System Terminal." (Sai)

{Yes?}

"Can I ask you a question?" (Sai)

{What is it?}

"If you were to have a main persona as Yukina Minato, then is it possible to have other persona as well? For example, the one in-charge in guiding me is the Main Persona Yukina Minato, then the one that will handle the shop is Persona B. Is that possible?" Sai asked with eagerness.

{Yes, it is possible, but sufficient data is required. If what the host want is a complete replication of the personality, the host must provide the data needed.}

"Umu! I already arranged the data needed for the five personalities needed, including Yukina. All you need is to absorb it. Now, take haste." (Sai)

{Understood.}

{Data extraction, start.}

{Extraction of data, finished.}

{Data processing, start.}

{Processing of data, finished.}

{Data absorption, start.}

{Absorption of data, finished.}

While waiting for the system terminal to finish doing his instructions, Sai is eager to see the results. In the past, after Sai inherited the position of Clan Head, he immersed himself in learning various knowledge and testing the skills that he acquired in the process of learning. He followed that routine without doing anything else different, until he played the game called Fate/Grand Order, then just like a snowball, the Gacha games he played keep on increasing. One of the games that he liked the most is BanG Dream Girls' Band Party, the third game he played. The band he liked the most is Roselia. So, when he heard Terminal talk to him, Sai viewed it as Yukina talking to him.

That's why he questioned Terminal if it is able to have multiple personas. He wanted Terminal to imitate his favorite characters in BanG Dream.

"How was it?" (Sai)

{There's no problem. I have done it as you requested.}

"Hmmm. There's still a long way for you but it is fine, we can take our time. Now that you have your own personality, you should change your name as well. System Terminal is a mouthful for me, you see." (Sai)

"From now on, you will be Yukina Minato." (Sai)

{I'm Yukina…. Minato….} (Yukina)

Unknown to the both of them, when Sai gave his System Terminal a name, something inside the System Terminal has changed. Something that will fundamentally separate Yukina from all the System Terminals that created by the Main System. Although major changes will happen in the far future.

"Well, since we're going to see if it the results of changes, take me to the shop, Yukina. I want to buy some skills." (Sai)

{Got it.} (Yukina)

{Welcome to the Shop. I arranged the list so that you can easily buy a skill that you want.} (????? ????????)

Different from Yukina's cold and elegant voice, Sai was greeted by a friendly and cheerful voice. The one that is in-charge of the Shop, Saaya Yamabuki.

"Is there no any error, Saaya?" (Sai)

{Yeah, there's no any error, just like what you want, I was able to split myself into different personalities.} (Saaya)

"That's good. Well then, let me buy skills with my spoils." (Sai)

{That will cost 17,625 Rare Prisms.} (Saaya)

"If you exclude Infinite Mana Supply, then it would cost 7,625 Rare Prisms. Considering my initial estimates, this is much better. All I need to do is to use the Skill Rank Up Scrolls on priority skills and increase my proficiency in using them." (Sai)

{Sai, can I ask you something?} (Saaya)

"Go on." (Sai)

{Why did you have to buy this many skills? There are skills that is very powerful enough even if you only choose to raise one. Compared to buying many skills, buying just one is much better since you can focus on it.} (Saaya)

"Ah that. Then, give me an example, Saaya." (Sai)

{For example, Dragon Slayer Magic. If you mastered and increased the rank of the skill, you will be able to gain a body that is comparable to a Dragon. Not to mention the potential of the skill.} (Saaya)

"You have read my memories of that skill, didn't you? Indeed, Dragon Slayer Magic can give me offensive, defensive, and potential that can be considered strong, in the eyes of common people that is." (Sai)

{Eh?} (Saaya)

"That skill is incompatible with me, in simple terms, I don't need it. You saw it in my memories, right? Let's take the Fire Dragon Slayer Magic as an example. The only changes in the techniques is the form, power, and speed. It is only strong in fair fights. If a mage like that were to participate in the Holy Grail War, do you think that mage will be able to survive? Depending on the circ.u.mstances, the chance is very low. In the end, even if your body is comparable to a dragon it's still a body of a human, if you cut it, it will bleed, if you destroyed its heart and brain it will die. And since your only attacks are fire and physical attacks, I have a lot of methods to counter every last one of it. In fact, the Dragon Slayer skill that is the same as Siegfried is much better." (Sai)

{Why is that?} (Saaya)

"If Dragon Slayer Magic gives a body that is comparable to a dragon, then the Dragon Slayer skill is the Bane of all dragons." (Sai)

{Ah!} (Saaya)

"Quick on the uptake, are you? The Dragon Slayer Magic gives you an equal ground with a dragon while Dragon Slayer skill gives you the upper hand. It's just like how herbivore versus herbivore, and carnivore versus herbivore. Why? The effects of the Dragon Slayer skill are to have additional damage and high resistance towards anything that possess the blood of the dragon." (Sai)

{Even if they have similar names, to think that they will have that difference.} (Saaya)

"That's to be expected. And in the series, it took 7 or 8 Dragon Slayer Mages just to kill one dragon, while a single knight with Balmung is able to kill Fafnir. The gap is too big. That's I choose Dragon Slayer skill, since my purpose is to prepare just in case I have to kill a dragon." (Sai)
