Chapter 305: Contacting Money Making System

The Destiny Luck System connected to the Astral Network and roamed through it, adding in some keyword searches before finding the group managed by the Money-Making System. Of course, it was pretty much a mess, with a lot of Systems asking for it to sell its Skill to them.

Some Systems were giving it death threats constantly, wishing to probe its actual location through that. And based on how rarely the Money-Making System made its presence there, it was apparent that it didn't wish to deal with either party.

The Destiny Luck System then created a private group with only the two of them there, startling the Money-Making System. After all, it had never been approached by such a big figure.

At Level 92, adding onto the fact that it was from the Luck Genre, Destiny Luck was pretty much a big wig. While on the other hand, the Money-Making System was only a Hatchling System. It was a stark contrast.

[Money-Making System (Level 7): Your Majesty, is there a reason you've added this tiny System here?]

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): I'll make this short. I plan to make and support Stencil Carburettor as a System Slayer]

There was a minute of silence after that as the Money-Making System replied, surprisingly acquiescing to the offer.

[Money-Making System (Level 7): I can accept that, Your Majesty. But I'll require your help]

'That was fast.' The Destiny Luck System was surprised. But after recalling that the other party was just a Hatchling System that was part of the Monetary Genre, it understood, 'Maybe it's already facing a terrifying threat that's lusting after its Core Skill.'

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): State your needs]

[Money-Making System (Level 7): I need a Core Skill related to the technological genre, hopefully related to nanotechnology. With that, I can still maintain myself even after turning Stencil into a True System Slayer]

'Interesting…' The Destiny Luck System nodded, 'This way, it's impossible for Compass Carburettor to become a True System Slayer and hinder my plans. And, with his daughter under my banner and support, he'll be less likely to go against me. Roping him to my side would also be a possibility.'

At the start, it planned to talk about Compass Carburettor's strength and unnerve it first before proceeding with the discussions. This way, it planned to make the Money-Making System acquiesce to its needs.

After all, to turn a Host into a System Slayer pretty much guaranteed the System's death. There were ways to ensure the consciousness of the System would remain behind, but it pretty much ensured they were useless and helpless.

It was not to mention that they would never be able to grow on their own and be a System anymore. Even Hatchling Systems would never accept such a fate.

But surprisingly, the Money-Making System accepted it almost immediately. All Monetary based Systems were rich, including Hatchling Systems. They possessed massive reserves of Mental Energy. So, they would have never accepted such an offer that pretty much destroyed their future.

It seemed the Money-Making System was pretty hard-pressed, seeing as how cooperating it was. As Destiny Luck System wished to know more about its situation, it continued to talk

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): Let's discuss related to that next. But first, what's your situation there. Even I didn't think you'll accept my offer so easily]

[Money-Making System (Level 7): I'm pretty much trapped on Earth now. Three Systems are targeting me, and the strongest System among them is at Level 45. The one that targeted my previous Host in the past was only a Hatchling System. But, the reinforcements it brought this time are beyond what I can handle]

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): What's the strongest one called?]

[Money-Making System (Level 7): Secret Schemer. Due to its ability, I'm unable to do anything to it. And, Stencil is still a child and is incapable of facing such schemes. She has already lost everything her father had created for her]

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): Currently, Compass Carburettor has joined my enemy's faction. And, Stencil is the only means to bring him to my side. I'm also quite interested to see how she would grow up to be since Compass Carburettor has continued to surprise me]

After a moment of thought, it gave orders to the other party.

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): I'll send my Slayer to hunt for the Core Skill necessary to help you. In the meantime, try your best to survive. if you need Mental Energy or any other help, just ask me. Once my Slayer is done with the errand, he'll hunt your enemies that you can gear Stencil with. Secret Schemer is a wonderful ability to have, especially for a Slayer]

[Money-Making System (Level 7): I'll do as you say, Your Majesty]

After discussing some more, the Destiny Luck System arrived within another private group, one shared between only two Systems.

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): There's a change of plans]

A minute later, a reply arrived, one with a tone of surprise.

[Primordial Origin (Level 61): Did something happen? I'm still chasing after Compass Carburettor]

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): I'm planning to rope his daughter in first. She's also pretty interesting. And, if she becomes a True System Slayer, then Compass Carburettor has zero hopes in becoming one, since their origin System is the same]

[Primordial Origin (Level 61): That makes sense. In both the times I tried to kill him, Coincidental Luck has been adamantly targeting me without considering its Mental Energy expenditure. It has already realised his value in that as long as he is alive, all the Systems troubling it would be killed even by the end of this loop]

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): That's why, targeting his daughter is for the best. From what I have gathered, she's his sole purpose. And, if she joins our side, then he would have no other choice but to do so too]

[Primordial Origin (Level 61): Hmm, having Compass Carburettor on my side would be pretty helpful too. He's pretty interesting after all. And even if he refuses to join, without becoming a True System Slayer, there's nothing much he can do. He'll hit his limit soon enough. So, what should I do now?]

[Destiny Luck (Level 92): Well, his daughter's System is requesting a makeover to live on even within a System Slayer. So, you'll have to hunt for a technological based Core Skill, preferably nanotechnology-related. How long do you need to do this? That System is from the Monetary genre, so it's pretty much in a pinch now. So, you'll have to head over to rescue it after this]

The Elf stopped in the air, no longer giving chase to Compass Carburettor, frowning as it thought, 'I remember seeing one such System in a martial arts world. It'll be easy if it's still there.'

Thinking as such, it replied in the Astral Network…

[Primordial Origin (Level 61): I'll try to finish this in a year. I'll also check Compass Carburettor's development once I'm done. If he turns out to be too dangerous by then, I'll kill him]

The Elf condensed a portal to the System World and entered it, vanishing from the Apocalypse World.
