147 THE PITIFUL 0.5%

The real Bai Chen in this world accidentally gave his Power Crystal to another kid when he was six years old?

Bai Chen didn’t even know how to react when he heard new information from the old servant.

‘He accidentally gave his Power Crystal when he was a child? It’s similar to accidentally giving away precious candy that tastes really good, right? How could the real Bai Chen of this world be so stupid?’ Bai Chen facepalmed without realizing that he was also a fool for comparing the Power Crystal to candy.

Sighing in exasperation, Bai Chen then asked the servant again, “So, that’s the reason why my mother didn’t tell me anything about the two crystals in my body? It’s because I accidentally gave one of the crystals and I only have one crystal now?”

It was easy enough for him to connect the dots after hearing Ma Qiao’s answer, and he could even connect it to Tang Yangmei’s secret.

“That’s right, Your Highness,” the old servant confirmed while nodding his head. “Fortunately, you only gave your Power Crystal and not your Life Crystal. If you had given your Life Crystal, then you wouldn’t be here with me today, Your Highness.”

The old man once again showed a pair of teary eyes in front of the young Prince, perhaps imagining if the Prince was not with him today.

However, the Prince paid no attention to the servant’s expression when he suddenly heard a notification from the system.

{DING!

.....

PROGRESS OF THE MISSION ‘FIND THE REAL CULPRIT BEHIND BAI CHEN’S MOTHER’S DEATH’

8% => 10%}

For the second time on the same day, Bai Chen received a notification about his mission regarding Tang Yanmei, and he was quite happy when he saw how the percentage was slowly but surely increasing as it approached 100%.

But, Bai Chen noticed that something was wrong with the progress, so he immediately questioned the system, ‘I only found out the truth about what happened to the real Bai Chen and Tang Yanmei in the past, but I didn’t find out the truth related to the woman’s death. Why is the percentage still being raised, sys?’

It wasn’t that Bai Chen wasn’t happy with the progress, but he was just curious when he realized that the fact he had just discovered didn’t even have anything to do with the woman’s death.

It was just about what happened when the real Bai Chen was a child, but he still received progress for his mission.

{IT’S BECAUSE THE SYSTEM IS SO LENIENT TO THE HOST. THE SYSTEM KNOWS THAT THE HOST IS NOT VERY CAPABLE, SO THE SYSTEM IS TRYING TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR THE HOST}

“...” Bai Chen fell silent. He was sure that it was Bai Lang’s idea to make him feel very stupid when he was trying to make progress on the mission related to Tang Yanmei.

Choosing to ignore the annoying system, Bai Chen asked his old servant again, “Do you know the time when I accidentally gave my Power Crystal, Ma Qiao?”

He even deliberately emphasized the word ‘accidentally’ to show that the real Bai Chen in this world was indeed stupid.

He asked that question because he knew that Ma Qiao had been with him for many years, and when he could no longer question Tang Yanmei because the woman had died long ago, he assumed that he would be able to obtain some information from his servant.

Unfortunately, the old servant frowned at him as he replied, “I don’t know the details of what happened back then, Your Highness.”

“You don’t know what happened then?” Bai Chen asked the old man again. “I was very young then, so I have no memory of what happened back then. But if I remember correctly, you worked for me when I was six, right, Ma Qiao?”

Bai Chen was gambling when he asked the servant the question. When he had just transmigrated into this world, Ma Qiao had only told him that he had been with him for many years since he was a child, but Bai Chen could not confirm that the old servant had been with him when he was six years old.

It was just a guess, but Ma Qiao firmly nodded his head in response to his question, “That’s right, Your Highness. I don’t really remember the year when I started serving your family, but I worked for your family before you were born into the world, Your Highness.”

Bai Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Ma Qiao’s confirmation. He had just made a random guess, and if he didn’t guess correctly, the old man might be suspicious of him, and that was why he looked relieved when he didn’t see any sign of suspicion on his servant’s face.

“You worked with me when I was six years old, so why are you saying that you don’t really know what happened when I accidentally gave my Power Crystal, Ma Qiao? Even after I grew up, you were always with me, so I believe the situation was the same when I was six, right?” Bai Chen asked the old man again.

“Aiyah! You are not wrong in your opinion, but the circumstances back then were rather special, Your Highness,” Ma Qiao replied once again. “When you accidentally gave the Power Crystal, you were outside the palace with your mother, and I was not with the two of you because your mother asked me to stay in the palace. I only heard the information from your mother, and I dare not question her further because I’m only a servant.”

Bai Chen had to swallow his disappointment after hearing the servant’s answer. He had hoped to get more information from the servant, but it turned out that only Tang Yanmei knew the details, but the woman no longer existed in this world.

Bai Chen knew that he wouldn’t be able to find out the truth about the incident when he accidentally gave away his Power Crystal, but he still had some hope in his heart to find out about something else as he once again asked, “Then, I no longer have a Power Crystal in my body, right? Is that why I can only be a weak werewolf now?”

It was also easy to deduce because the name of the crystal was the Power Crystal, and it had to be the source of the power in his body.

“You are also right about that, Your Highness,” replied the old man. “Lady Tang decided to keep this matter a secret because she didn’t want you to feel bad about it when you grew up, and she even begged the Emperor and the Crown Prince not to tell you about it.”

{DING!

PROGRESS OF THE MISSION ‘FIND THE REAL CULPRIT BEHIND BAI CHEN’S MOTHER’S DEATH’

10% => 10.5%}

‘What the fuck!’ Bai Chen inwardly cursed the system as it dared to give him 0.5% after he managed to obtain other information related to Tang Yanmei.

The system had just said that it was lenient because Bai Chen wasn’t particularly capable of his mission, but It still had the heart to give him a pitiful 0.5% after he revealed another truth about the woman.

It seemed like the system wanted to give to the pitiful beggar, and that beggar was Bai Chen.

Bai Chen was furious on the inside, but he tried to calm himself down and just accepted the system’s ‘leniency’ and didn’t protest anymore. He was still lucky that the system ignored his profanity earlier instead of feeling offended by it.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Focusing on an important matter once more, Bai Chen couldn’t help but feel amazed that the Emperor and Crown Prince would still listen to Tang Yanmei’s wishes even if they both hated the woman to the core.

In the end, Bai Chen never knew about the truth related to the crystals within his body, and it was only today that he finally learned the facts from his servant. Suddenly, he felt lucky to know that he had Ma Qiao by his side.

“Your Highness...” Ma Qiao called out to him again, and the servant once again sounded hesitant. “Are you sad after learning that you don’t have the Power Crystal anymore?”

Ma Qiao’s question was definitely related to Tang Yanmei’s wishes in the past, but Bai Chen didn’t even know what he was feeling right now. He wasn’t the real Bai Chen in this world, and he didn’t feel that bad even if he didn’t have the Power Crystal.

“I don’t want to think about it,” Bai Chen replied, and he also pretended to be disappointed when he imagined that the real Bai Chen might feel disappointed if he knew the truth about it.

Ma Qiao might have thought that he was sad, but then the servant once again looked at the sword in his hand before asking him another question, “I’m still curious about how you got this sword with the Power Crystal on the pommel, Your Highness. Who gave the sword to you?”
