Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

"System, give me a skill," Ning said. It had been a long time since he had to ask for a skill from the system.

With how great his cultivation base was back in Kumia and how good his Aether rank had come to be in this world, he hadn't needed a new skill for himself.

But, now he did.

Alexis had just taught him a very weird but fun trick he could do with sound. Apparently, if you sent a certain strength of sound onto some object, you could destroy it, given you could supply enough Aether to create the sound.

However, the strength of the sound required was different for each object, and he wasn't sure which was which.

So, he decided to ask the system for a skill that would let him know.

Apparently, someone had already requested such skill as the system quickly gave him a skill.

The skill was called Resonance. Ning could use the skill to create sound at the same frequency as the object's natural frequency and destroy it.

While the skill used Energy, Ning only wanted to use the aspect of the skill that told him the natural frequency of the object and the frequency he was producing.

Once he got the skill, he went on to use it. He picked up a stone from the ground and checked its natural frequency.

Once he got the answer, he started creating sound energy directly from the stone.

He realized his frequency was really low, so he slowly changed it and started going higher and higher.

Finally, when he reached the same frequency as the stone's natural frequency, he lingered for a moment and started increasing the sound while keeping the frequency the same.

The stone started shaking so hard that in the next moment, it cracked into a dozen small pieces and fell to the ground.

"Phew! That works now," he thought. While it was quite unfortunate that he had to wait around for a while to reach the level of frequency to destroy the object.

'Surely things that are not stones will be easier to destroy,' he thought.

"Come on, let's go now," Alexis said as she left the house.

Ning looked back at the house. They were leaving this place today and he felt a little bad about it.

It wasn't that he had become attached to the house, but rather the things inside it. He had made a great bed for him to sleep at. A few tables, some chairs.

He had even made a place to keep foods cold that he was quite proud of.

Now, he had to leave it all because Alexis didn't want him to take anything with him so that he could start it all over again.

Ning felt a little salty about it all. Alexis didn't need to sleep, so she wouldn't know about the need for a good bed, but how was he to create the same bed all over again? It had taken him nearly a week to make it last time after all.

He begrudgingly followed her, complaining to himself how she would always leave at night time for some reason.

He had asked her where she went during the night, but she wouldn't answer it at all.

He had asked the system, but it would simply tell him that she hadn't gone anywhere. It would never explain beyond that.

The system really was weird when it came to talking about Alexis as it seemed hesitant to explain more about her for some reason.

The two of them walked up the mountain and finally went to the actual city in the mountains.

It had been weeks since Ning saw any human figure at all. That included him and Alexis as neither of them were human.

The humans around him noticed them walking top the mountain. 'Surely it isn't that uncommon for people to come to the mountains,' Ning thought for a while before realizing what was happening.

Alexis was walking in front of him and everyone was looking at her. As expected, he wasn't a unique case after all. Every single human on Vilmore was attracted to her.

However, Ning could see no lust in their eyes, only revere. They looked like people who had just seen a god, which they had.

They walked around the mountain and went down the other side. "Find an open area that doesn't have a house or is growing some crops," Alexis said.

Ning nodded. The Freelands was just such a place. Every piece of land was free for anyone to grab.

You could lay claim to the land as you wished and didn't have to pay any tax or anything for it.

The only rule to keep the land was that you have to grow some crops in it, or build your house in it.

If you claimed a piece of land and failed to do either of these things for a week, someone else could claim that land.

That was the only law-keeping people from hoarding land like in the other countries.

Ning quickly found a small piece of land that didn't seem like it was owned by anyone.

Even if it was, since they hadn't done anything in it, Ning could claim it and build something on it.

"We can use this area," Ning said. It was a small piece of land about 10 meters in length and 30 meters in breadth.

It only had some grasses growing on it, so he would need to find wood from someplace else to build a house.

He looked to the side and he could see the valley with the many houses down there and even a small tower.

'So the Aether tower is here too huh?' he thought. He had heard of them being in specific locations around the Freelands. He hadn't expected one to be this close by.

"Alright, you should make the house. I will go look for some food," Ning said.

"No," Alexis said. "You will be making the house."

Ning turned around. "Really?" he asked. "Dammit."

It was going to be a long and tiresome day.
