3 System's survey

With the end of the naming ceremony, followed by the announcement of names everyone who was standing took their seat.

After a short while, the banquet began. The servants served these royalties, nobles and other prominent figures with light appetizers.

The main dishes were prepared by the head chef of the Avron family. The dishes look very tempting with the delicious aroma, were made with some very expensive meat. But just a good quality ingredient is not enough to have such a delicious aroma. Only in the hands of an expert would these ingredients have their complete potential revealed. The guests were also served with different kinds of wines and other alcoholic drinks.

Aaron was sitting with his father and two mothers. The light pope and the other two men were also sitting on the opposite side of the table. They were discussing things about the Light goddess, so the light pope was the one who was answering their queries.

However, the light pope seemed to be avoiding looking at Aaron. It seemed like he made a great effort to display his deep knowledge about everything related to the Light Goddess. His descriptions were vivid and realistic.

Aaron was not interested in this conversation and continued to eat his food. By his side, his third mother Julia slowly whispered to his ear.

"Aaron, earlier you were amazing! If it was not the pope with whom you were having the argument I would have not controlled my laughter in." Julia said in a low voice.

"Argument? I don't know what you are talking about. I was only asking him questions related to the workings of the Light church. Also if you are going to call that your control then I have to say it's not strong enough." Aaron replied with an innocent expression.

"Not admitting it are we now. Aaron, I can tell that you did not like his taunt about the bandits while he came in. You don't have to worry. I don't like this stupid and lecherous bastard Martin. His eyes are unrestrained, if he was not a pope I would have stabbed his eyes." Julia replied while rolling her eyes which later expressed disgust.

"I don't think your words are right to be used in front of your son." Aaron refuted.

"Hehe, it's fine I know you are more mature than other kids your age. It's like there is an adult inside you. Maybe it's because you have been reading a lot, I wonder what kind of books you read. Anyways that was a lot of fun. But you should be careful not to go overboard with people like him. Stop when necessary. By the way how about you sleep together with me and your little sister tonight?" said Julia.

"Still not happening!" said Aaron firmly.

"Aiya, I got rejected by my son again," said Julia with a pitiful look but naughty voice.

"I think it would be bad if I don't reject you," Aaron said.

After a couple of hours of drinking the light pope and his escorts were the first to leave. Slowly people started to bid farewell one after another. Soon the hall was left only with the people from the Avron household and the servants that had started to clean up.

"Son, are you still in a bad mood because of what we discussed about starting your sword training? Alright, once you turn five and we have established what your talents lie in, your training will begin." Alan lowered his back while putting both his hands on Aaron's shoulder and said.

"I am, but I'll be patient. However, I am going to learn Alchemy, Weapon enchanting and Array formation in the meantime from both of you. In exchange for babysitting Alfie and Aoife when you are busy." Aaron said while looking at his two mothers.

"Deal!" they replied.

After getting a satisfactory answer from them he returned to his room. A maid helped him change his clothes to nightwear and he went to sleep. He was tired and fell into a deep slumber almost immediately.

In the morning the maid returned and woke him up. Helped him get dressed again. He was ready to go to have breakfast when he heard the same chime he heard a few times yesterday.

~DING~

[Good morning host! The system has gone through the initial phase of processing the paramount information. Please take a mandatory system survey to assist the system in a better understanding of the host.]

'This thing again' Aaron frowned.

"Can you stop addressing me as 'host' it feels creepy. And what's this all about?"Aaron asked in his head.

[System wants to tune itself to better serve the host. Hereby the system shall address the host as Aaron. Is that acceptable?]

" 'Tune itself' huh, alright. Let's get started." Aaron rubbed his hand excited to see what's to come.

[The system shall ask a few questions. Please answer them with sincerity and honesty for optimum results.]

"Understood" Aaron replied.

[What are your thoughts or goals in the future?]

"Well, this should be obvious. To be the strongest there is! I have a system, anything ordinary is unacceptable. I have to be peerless! Next."

[What are your thoughts about life, specifically yours?]

"Hmm... let me think. I think myself as fortunate to have a new/another chance at life so I want to cherish it. Next"

[What about other peoples or creatures life do they matter to you?]

"To me, other than people I care about other people don't matter much. But I don't want to go on a mindless killing spree. Only people who are in my way or have grudges with me are to be treated as enemies and I would eliminate if and when possible without exceptions. Next."

[When in danger or a high possibility of it do you want to be prepared with a backup plan or take drastic measures on the spot?]

"Backup plans if and when possible if not, no problems with taking drastic measures. Next."

[In a scenario where people important to you are in danger confirm the action system should take-

a) Abandon to fight another day.

b) Risk it! or find a way out.

c) Activate backup plan.

d) Create a distraction.]

"Hmm, Go in this order if possible. Create a distraction> activate backup plan> find a way out> Risk it. NEVER ABANDON!"

[What would you like to do with the memories from your previous lives?]

"Create a timeline with all important occasions and inform or remind in advance. Depending on its importance and severity. Next."

[What are the features that you think the system must have to serve you?]

"A special storage space where living beings can be stored, some type of anti-surveillance which can actively monitor others for me and maybe a store to buy things or skills. Next"

[The Last question, What are your thoughts about the system?]

"I really don't know. I hope it's something beneficial to me, only. With no backdoors or something like that. The name seems weird. I myself should be in complete control of the system, not the other way around."

[End of Survey. Starting system adjustments. Would like to hear a pre-recorded message in the meantime?]
