n1614 Quest Complete
nThe broken step of the ladder rolled away, hitting the all on the other side before coming to a stop.
n“Nice!” Ning shouted and checked the ladder itself to see if the gold was hidden within where the two sides of the wood were stuck. He didn’t find it there so he walked up to the wood he had managed to release and checked it.
nOn the side of the step, there was a thin slit through which a dim golden object could be seen.
n“It’s here!” Ning shouted, quickly calling Shara over.
nShara walked up to him, curious about what he had found. She watched him strike the wood against the ground for a few quick times before something fell out.
nShara had only ever seen this thing once in her entire life, and that had been when she had gone to the people who took care of selling her houses. She had seen another two people selling their houses and had brought out a few of these things.
nGold Coins.
nShara’s heart began beating faster and faster when she saw the golden coin. But Ning didn’t stop hitting the ladder.
nAnother hit and another hit. By the time he had hit a third time, 4 more gold coins had fallen out of the wood.
nShara could barely believe her eyes. A single gold coin meant that she was rich. What did 5 mean then?
nNing gathered the 5 gold coins, dusted off the wood splinters, and handed them over to Shara.
n“Here, this is what your grandmother left behind for you,” she said. “My… grandmother left this?” she asked, confused. “How? We weren’t rich enough for this.”
nNing shrugged and poured the gold coins into her hand. “I’ll try asking your—”

nNing didn’t expect to read those words so suddenly. He reached out to tap on the notifications that had arrived and see if there was more he could learn here when he saw something change from the corner of his eyes.

nNext to Shara, the shimmering light that was her grandmother took on a more solid and yet more ethereal form. She wasn’t just a haze in the air anymore, but rather a fully humanoid ghost.
nHer wrinkles were there, but this time around, her eyes weren’t vacant, staring at nowhere. They had pupils in them and they had tears.
n“Thank you, young man,” she said. “Please tell my granddaughter that I love her. Tell her that she should live her life as she pleases.”
nAs soon as she said that, the woman faded away, disappearing from this world.
nShe had moved on.
n“Your… your grandmother is gone,” Ning said.
n“What? No!” Shara shouted. “I wanted to talk to her. One last time. Please, I have things to say to her.”
nNing shook his head. “I’m sorry, but she is gone,” he said. “At the end, she told me to tell you that she loves you and you should live your life as you please. Your grandmother was smiling when she said that.”
nShara couldn’t hold back her tears at all.
nNing stood next to her, slowly patting her back as she let her tears and her sorrow out. She held those 5 gold coins to her chest as those were the last things that her grandmother had left for her.
nNing waited for her to stop crying and while he did so, he checked his status report.
nStatus Report:
nName: Ning Rougong
nCurrent World: Grotia
nCurrent World’s Energy: Unique
nNew Energy: NONE (NOT AVAILABLE)
nPoints: 1
nQuests:
nNONE

nHe tried tapping on the points to see what it did and was surprised when something did happen. It hadn’t worked last time when he only had 0 points.
nAnother window opened on top of the status page called the ‘Points Shop’. Using this shop, Ning could purchase a few things for himself.
nFor now, there were only 2 things that he could buy.
n Points Shop:
nMinor Healing Potion: 1 Point
n08:26
nMinor Physical Enhancement Potion: 1 point
n
n“Okay…” Ning thought, seeing the two potions. He clicked on both of the potions to read their description and sighed as they were exactly what they said they were.
nMinor potions. One barely healed cuts and bruises, and the other one barely gave him 10% more strength, speed, stamina, and endurance. Ning didn’t buy either.
n‘Maybe once I gather more points, more options will show up,’ Ning thought. He was a little surprised though that the shop wasn’t like the Energy System’s shop, where he could purchase anything and everything he wanted.
n‘What is the experiment exactly?’ Ning wondered. Was it to see how good he was at helping people, or was it to see how well he could help souls? Or was it just this system?
nHe couldn’t see why it would be the system, given how much worse it was compared to the Energy System. There was no way the Creator was making another system that was just that much worse than his first one, right?
nAs Ning was thinking that, the door burst open, scaring both him and the girl.
n“Are you guys still inside? We’ve been waiting out here for ages,” a middle-aged man with slop on his unkempt beard said as he walked inside. The clothes he wore were just better than rags and so was the case for the people behind him. Nearly 5 people, all over the age of 30, and from the looks of it very poor, walked into the house.
n“Oh! They are here,” the man said. “Who are you?” Ning asked. “What are you doing in her house?”
n“We heard your talk in the tavern, sir Detective,” the man at the front said. “What did that grandmother of hers leave behind? Was it some money? If it was something valuable…”
nShara held the coins tighter to her chest.
n“Show us what that is young miss, and no trouble will come your way,” the man said.
nNing stepped before her. “Leave and I won’t have to hurt you.”
nAnd that was when he heard the sound.
