The system nearly dropped its calm facade in rage and launched a tirade in frustration. But since Shannon was no longer holding the amulet, she couldn't hear its complaints.

She added another talisman seal to the tortoise's shell to ensure the system couldn't escape even if it regained energy. Only then did she dispel the barrier and pick the tortoise up from the floor.

"Shannon, is this… the so-called system?"

"Is that what the system looks like?"

"Hmm… It looks like a tortoise."
