I'm Actually Not Overpowered!-Chapter 10 Getting An OP Reward!

Karmic Value!

In the novel, Transmigrated With The Strongest System, it was one of the most important assets of the MC.

In fact, at the earlier stages, it was the one of most relevant assets for survival and adaptation in the Fantasy World Damien was thrust into. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

Why?

Because, just as humans had money in the world I came from, Karmic Value was the System's currency of exchange.

More accurately, it was the only means of exchange!

Even for avoiding a Penalty or a Quest, one needed Karmic Value Points to pay.

It was a perfectly crafted system that could make or mar the user.

After clearing my earlier Quest, I received 10 Karmic Value as a reward.

Looking at such an amount, would anyone think it was worth much? Nope.

And they would be damn right about it!

10 Karmic Value was completely useless.

To get a single good gear from the System Shop, I would need at least 100 Karmic Value.

In comparison to the number 100, 10 was just abysmally small.

'To think I risked my life for such a small compensation…'

Okay, so, I wasn't stating all this information just to be petty.

The relevance of Karmic Value in this whole adventure, especially the 10 which I had just received, could be considered to be a game changer.

Usually, I would consider 10 to be a minimal amount, however, I had just recalled that there are exceptions to every rule.

'The Junkyard!'

That's right! The System Shop was separated into two categories.

The Main Shop had amazing items with mind-blowing effects. Magic tools, or Skill Scrolls. Their abilities ranged from C Rank to S Rank.

Wielding a single Item from the Main Shop would make me considerably strong in this world—especially among the mobs that surrounded me.

'Too bad I can't afford any of that shit!'

The only things my 10 Karmic Value could obtain were items deemed as trash. They belonged in the Junkyard.

Now, when calling something trash, I wasn't exactly talking about unusable rubbish.

By human standards, trash could be defined as useless items to be discarded.

Yes, that was the perfect definition.

So, according to the System—in a world of Swords and Magic—what would be considered trash?

Come on, think hard!

Yes, it would be none other than TECHNOLOGY!

The Junkyard contained things from my world—objects of technology and civilization.

Not all Items in the Junkyard were cheap though, so yet another two categories existed.

[Junkyard Category]

[Please Pick]

—Option 1: Secondhand Items

—Option 2: General Items

<Prices Depend On Level Of Importance And Value>

The first option contained the cheapest categories of items in the System Shop. And that was because they were all personal possessions of the user.

Yes! Every item in the Secondhand Option was mine.

My Flip-flops. My Tablet. Everything I recently acquired came from that section of the Shop. It was very convenient, yet dirt cheap!

I got my Flip Flops for one Karmic Value, and my Tablet was sold for four.

That gave me 5 Karmic Values left.

Wasn't that absolutely ridiculous?

Thanks to this, I was able to impress the audience.

They all seemed to buy into my BS, and their eyes were filled with deep respect and admiration.

Thanks to my stunt, the System informed me that more names had been added to my Character List. In short, every single person who had heard me felt such deep loyalty that they were recorded by the System.

I was ecstatic!

The easy route was finally opening up for me.

As if that wasn't enough of a reward, the System finally popped up after keeping me waiting for so long.

[SYSTEM NOTICE]

<Your Achievements Have Been Completely Calculated>

'About time!' I grinned to myself, almost forgetting that I was on stage for a moment.

The honest citizens who watched me still had their expressions of reverence, so they must not have noticed my blunder.

'I should check it out later… or…'

Deciding not to leave things to fate, I accepted the System's Rewards.

It wasn't like it was a big deal anyway. Or so I thought…

[End Of Information]

'Holy shit!' 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m

My brain shut down for a minute. I felt a wave of immense shock reverberate all over my body.

Everything went black. And then… I could feel myself passing out.

I was definitely going to faint.

But, just as I was about to lose consciousness, 'it' manifested.

[Skill: Freedom Of Expression has been automatically applied]

[Skill Effect: You will never lose composure when in the presence of another. Words will never fail you, and every individual action shall be performed flawlessly.]

I was able to remain utterly composed despite being so rattled. This was beyond my wildest expectations.

'T-this many Rewards?!' It took some time to comprehend it.

1,500 Karmic Value.

Three Skills.

One Title

30 Stat Points.

Five Level Ups.

These were rewards that had been completely beyond my expectations, yet… how did I get them?

I didn't really do anything, did I? I just… I just…

It was initially unbelievable, highly overwhelming and unfathomable, but when I mulled it over in my head..

'… It actually made sense!'

Every action I took, as unimpressive as it seemed, was actually a big deal for a clueless Level 1 Noob.

I had surpassed the System's expectations, hence it rewarded me generously.

'Hahaha… why was I worried for nothing?' I laughed silently.

The System was honest.

It rewarded me based on my efforts. Nothing more, nothing less.

'I had initially intended to do the barest minimum to survive, but… if this is how things are, then…'

I set my gaze on my absolutely loyal minions, as well as the wasteland they called home.

Wasn't this quite the opportunity for me?

More Achievements = More Rewards. 'Sweet'

Glancing around, I could see that there was much work to be done on the vast wasteland. Basically Work = Acheivements. In essence, this was actually a gold mine!

I made a silent apology to everyone who bowed before me. I was so sorry for thinking they were useless.

This couldn't have been possible without their efforts.

But, now that we had arrived at this juncture, there was no way I could stop now. With the many potential rewards that awaited me, depending on my achievements, and the easy progression in sight, my motivation was soaring through the sky.

'… Why don't I just go all out?'
