Chapter 4
It says that it will give him some rewards. Looks like this System cheat is the one that karmic river talking about.
Hearing the self proclaimed system
"h.e.l.lo Karma system?" Ren asked. He really did not know what to call this system.
"h.e.l.lo host, you can just call me anything you want "
"Then i'll just refer to you as system, so who are you or rather what are you and what's your origin"
Because of his 10 years harsh experience and being betrayed for numerous time in his past life he was wary to this self proclaimed system.
"Im the system, you can think me like an AI (artificial intelligence) with supporting functions. And i am created by the karmic river from your good karma to help you surviving in the apoclaypse era"
Ren is slighlty excited, he remembered those novel about the mc with op system like golden finger.
"What can you do"
"I have three functions. First the status menu will show you your current data. The status menu is divided into three category: body info, attribute and ability"
The blue box in my sight shows my image at the left side while the right side show this:

Seed form
The 2nd function is Loyalty menu
It will check the current loyalty percentage of everyone around you.
The 3rd function is the a.s.sistance menu
And you are currently using it. Basically it let you communicate to me.
You currently have 17 800 540 033 golden karma points
"Where is the shopping system, that could let me buy cultivation manuals or magical items. Even buying food and water will do"
"Im sorry. I have no function like that"
"Then how could i increase my attributes"
"You could train or eat mutant meat in the future"
"What i mean is that, if i kill mutant beast or exchange beast core could i increase my attributes"
"I also have no function like that"
Ren last straw of expectation completly broke
"Though its a pity, one should learn how to be content. The fact that i will be able to check the loyalty of my people is already enough."
"Oh wait!, system what does the golden karma points do" remembering that detail, Ren was again excited.
"Golden karma points or golden k points or GK points for short are
This time Ren is truly overjoyed. It was even more amazing than having a item shop function.
"Personal advice from me host. Please use your GK points wisely"
"System i want to use the a.s.sistance function. How much GK points does a human earn in his whole life" this is one of his worry. He did not know if his current amount of GK points are small or big. Learning about this matter will let him make a more better plan in using his points.
"Please choose the level of service Simple (10), Normal(50), Informed(5000)or Detailed (80000)
"I choose detailed" though it was thousand times more costly than the simple level. Based on his current amount of points, it was still affordable. Whats more is that he could have lower error in planning if he have a better info in hand. In his current condition where he did not have much idea about his golden finger, the more information he got the better.
"Detailed answer to your question, cost 80000 GK points. Confirmed Transaction?"
"Confirmed"
After few seconds
"A adult human with average 85 years of life could acc.u.mulate 500 Golden Karma points in his life. Golden Karma points or Good karma is earned by doing good deeds, but there are many variables to be considered. So it was really hard to earn good karma. (1 good karma is equivalent to 1 golden karma point)
For example, you will help a man almost in his death. You will earn a total of 5 good karma. Because of saving his life, you will bear 10% of karma he will own from now on. Which means if he do bad deeds from now on and gained bad karma or black karma, you will get the 10% of that. Same principle if he do good deeds and earn golden karma or good karma.
Karma will be continously used while living. For example if you have some acc.u.mulation of good karma you will have good luck like when buying a lottery ticket or finding your lost item.
If then you have acc.u.mulation of bad karma, you will suffer while living to offset it. Like stepping on a sh*t, being bit by a dog, accidentaly struck by a car or even broking the things you held in your hand.
Actually there is faster way in offsetting your bad karma, Doing good deeds will remove more bad karma than suffering from bad luck. It also applies in good karma, bad deeds will offset it more quickly.
After death the remaining karma will be collected. 60% of the remaining karma will be used to decide your fate in your next life while the remaining 40% will follow you in your next life."
Ren knew that he chose the correct level of information this time. If he chose to save golden points he will miss the vital information especially about gaining good karma.
But then he started to feel amiss. Looking at his GK points he was really baffled. Accordding to the system a average man will earn a total of 500 good karma including the offset or used in daily living. Comparing it to his GK points, even if he's a kind man in his past life, he don't think that he will earn this amount of good karma. He was really curious to what did he do in his past life reincarnation. He then try to ask the system to satisfy his curiosity
"System coul you tell me why i have this large amount of good karma"
"Yes I could but your current GK points are not enough"
Ren is really shocked this time. His current GK points should be considered big, in mortal words, he was a multi bilionaire. Ren decided not too think deeply about it, well not now.
