The Path to Sainthood from Fairy Tail

Li Xuan took a closer look and found that the clock was very old. The current technology of the empire had long eliminated this kind of mechanical clock. Except for some people who liked to collect it, there were basically no such clocks in the Xingqi Empire.

"No way, old man, you found this from that garbage dump. How many centuries has it been here?"

Even though the old man had been with Li Xuan for such a long time, he was still so angry that he was fuming.

"Hey kid! This is a lucrative job! The boss really likes this kind of mechanical clock. If you can fix it, you won't have to worry about future work!"

Having said that, Li Xuan also understood the old man's good intentions.

He carefully put the clock in front of him into his schoolbag and said solemnly to the old man, "Thank you very much."

The old man turned his head away without looking at Li Xuan: "Hurry up and send it to me tomorrow! If you're late, I'll hold you accountable!"

Li Xuan chuckled and said, "Just this clock, I can repair ten of them in one night, just wait and see how much I'll get!"

After saying that, Li Xuan walked out of the Landau maintenance house.

The old man looked at Li Xuan's back and said softly, "Stinky boy..."

……

Li Xuan, carrying his schoolbag, came to the slums not far from Langdao's repair house.

The houses here are dilapidated, the roads are littered with black and brown unknown objects, and the humid environment makes the smell of the road linger for a long time.

Li Xuan, however, walked through the dirty and messy streets as if nothing had happened and came to his house.

The gate, the first line of defense, was riddled with holes and creaked as Li Xuan pushed it open. It seemed as if even a slight push would cause this first line of defense to crumble.

The evening breeze blew, and the weeds in the yard fluttered in the wind. Li Xuan walked through the weeds that were almost as tall as the old man and entered his studio.

Due to limited conditions, Li Xuan's studio and bedroom are combined together.

In addition to a large table, there is a bed made of wooden boards.

Li Xuan turned on the light casually, then took out the antique clock from his schoolbag and placed it steadily on the work desk.

After observing the structure of the clock, Li Xuan began to disassemble it skillfully.

Referring to previous watches, they generally have the most basic physical structure, and if there is a malfunction, it is usually a problem with the parts.

Sure enough, after careful inspection, Li Xuan found a gear with a problem.

"This model... I think they should be available!"

Afterwards, he found a gear of the same model in a pile of scrap parts, and began to prepare to replace it.

Just as he was about to take action, a voice that he had been waiting for for so long, so long that he had almost forgotten, suddenly appeared in his mind.

[It has been detected that the host is the reincarnation of a good person from nine generations ago, and meets the qualifications for the merit-based sainthood system. The host has now been successfully bound! Please accumulate more merit and become a saint soon!]

"system!?"

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and the gear that was in his hand just now fell to the ground.

[I'm here! Host. Do you have any questions? This system will answer them one by one!]

Li Xuan heard the sweet voice of the system, sorted out his thoughts, and then sat on the bed.

He quietly asked, "System, don't you feel that the time is a little off?"

[Host, please don't be so reserved. This system is quite easygoing. You can also affectionately call me Little Merit! As for the host's question, we can actually change it, such as what functions this system has!]

"This question is very important, you must tell me first!"

[Host, why bother? Even if you knew about this problem, it wouldn't benefit you. Why don't we talk about the newbie gift pack first? (^_?)☆]

"A big gift package for newbies!" Li Xuan was immediately excited when he heard about the big gift package for newbies, but he quickly returned to his calm expression.

"Don't change the subject. Why did you come here just now? Do you know how I've been through these past few years?"

Li Xuan clenched his fists and shed tears uncontrollably.

[Okay, host, stop crying. This isn't the system's fault. It was a positioning error that caused the host to misidentify their original identity after arriving in this world!]

"Why is this happening?"

[According to this system's understanding, it's highly likely that the host was in an incorrect position when they were hit, which led to a series of changes. This system deeply regrets this and, as an apology, is willing to upgrade the host's newbie gift pack!]

"Incorrect posture? What a ridiculous excuse! Do you think I'm so easy to fool?"

[This system understands the host's anger, but...]

Before the system finished explaining, Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "Level up two!"

「Huh? What……」

"I said, upgrade my newbie gift pack by two levels, and I won't pursue this matter any further."

Li Xuan had been through such a hard time for a long time and finally got a system. He couldn't just let it go like that. He asked for more benefits and stopped when he was ahead.

It's a good thing for both the system and him.

[No problem! Then we have a deal, this matter is over!]

Li Xuan also nodded: "Yeah, okay, hurry up and get out the newbie gift pack, I can't wait!"

[No problem. Please select the world you want to go to from the following worlds!]

[1. Fairy Tail]

[2. One Piece]

[3. Tokyo Ghoul]

[Please make a choice within ten seconds, 10, 9...]

"Hey, wait a minute, you bastard, why do you still want to travel through the world? This has nothing to do with your name!" Li Xuan was very anxious. The sudden choice of world caught him off guard.

【7, 6...】

"I choose 1! I choose 1!"

[Congratulations to the host for your successful selection. Please be prepared, we are about to embark on the path to sainthood!]

Li Xuan pressed his hands against his face, speechless about the operation of the system.

Immediately afterwards, white light shone on Li Xuan's body. The strong feeling of dizziness made him disoriented, and he could only close his eyes and endure it silently.

But in his heart, he had already cursed the new system, and all the vicious words he could think of were piled on this unscrupulous system.

After a dizzying moment, Li Xuan's senses finally returned to normal.

A fresh scent, different from that of the slums, rushed into his nostrils, and the sweet chirping of birds gradually filled his ears.

Li Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and the blue sky, green grass and many delicate flowers came into view, floating in the wind.

After realizing he had arrived in another world, Li Xuan immediately called out to the system, "Tongzi, what's going on? Why do I have to travel through worlds to unlock the Novice Gift Pack? And you never mentioned this before. Didn't you become a saint through merit? Why do you need to go to another world?"
