Would you like to play a game Yes/No

This is the question seen by hundreds of thousands of people all around the globe. Some of them were confused some were excited, as the panel of the question resembled that of a system from manga they have seen. Others just thought they were hallucinating and ignored it but who cares about them, on the other hand, everyone looking also noticed the timer of 1 minute counting down.

Here is where we introduce the protagonist Ivan Dotson, age 17 sitting on the edge of the tallest building in Chicago. You may be wonder what he is doing on top of this building, its simple he was going to jump. Why you may ask well that story is quiet short actually let me explain.

Ivan is someone who is mostly ignored by peers, which he didn't mind as he was not that fond of the people around him. He is a very observant person and could always find the underlining reason behind people talking to him. Ivan's family was quiet well of not rich but they had more than your average person in Chicago. He lived in a rather poor neighbor hood with the luxuries he had there were always people asking for something, although the requests didn't sound like much overtime they stack up, and one person asking for a dollar for a snack in school turns to ten and so on. This how ever is just a minor stab the real spiral started when the only people Ivan really liked, his family got into a car crash due to a drunk driver. When he got the new of there accident he rushed to the hospital, but by time he got there both of his parents had died and his little brother brother Steven was was in critical condition. After 12 painful hours a doctor came down and told him that no matter what they did they couldn't save him and the best they could do was comfort him until the inevitable. So after the death of his 10 year old brother Steve here he is.

Pondering his now miserable life Ivan looks down at the far away ground and jumps. He had been falling for about a minute when all the sudden the question appeared infront of him and he stopped falling and just floated there. Confused he reads the message. Would you like to play a game.

"Is this some sick joke, well I already decided to to die but at the same time im curious as to what this might be, I chose yes."

Celestial Bloodline

On a peaceful planet filled with magic and power, Kyle's life was lazy and ordinary, but little did he know, he possessed something extraordinary. He lived his life with his family like any other lazy human, or so he thought, unaware that everything happens for a reason. However, everything changed when he turned sixteen. His older brothers, who were fed up with his laziness, came up with a ridiculous plan to teach him a lesson. They asked him to take the entrance test for one of the biggest academies. They thought this would knock some sense into their lazy brother. Kyle was stunned, but because of their coordinated planning, he reluctantly agreed with a hint of resignation. "I don't think I'll pass the test anyway. So, trying it for the experience isn't a big deal." "The only problem is, I can't guarantee that all my body parts will stay intact until the end of the entrance test." But to Kyle's shock, he passed the test without even lifting a finger! Still, he was convinced that he would eventually be kicked out of the Academy due to his lack of strength. But the moment he set foot in the Academy, he discovered something incredible about himself. He was special and nature's favorite. . . . ______ (#It's my first time writing. So, support me with ps, gt and gifts. Hehe, THANK YOU) (Note: The cover is not mine, found it from pinterest.

The Author's POV

The person whom the world revolves around. The person who defeats all of his opponents, and ultimately gets the beautiful girl. The sole existence all villains fear. That is the protagonist. What about me? As a failed author who had only one success throughout his whole career, I had reincarnated into my late novel. "This is it" I thought, as I tightly clenched my fist. Did I just get reincarnated in my own novel? Is this where I reincarnate in a novel and become the protagonist? No. Sadly it's not that kind of novel, as I reincarnated as a mob. The world doesn't revolve around me. The girls don't come flocking towards me. The cheat items don't come to me. "Phew" I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank god I'm not the protagonist" I joyfully shouted as tears streamed down my cheeks. Wait, are you curious as to why I don't want to be the protagonist? I did forget to mention the most important thing when I was describing a protagonist. That is... They are calamity magnets. I just died. If I learned something from that, it's that it really isn't a pleasant experience. If possible let me live a long stable life. Thank you, whoever reincarnated me. I would later come to regret these words... ======== Reader Disclaimer : Please read the *Read before reading novel* in synopsis. ======== Credit to _oinkchan for helping me find the previous novel cover Credit to Rengoku for his amazing edit of the new cover. ======== Discord : https://discord.gg/FNAKgfyky4 Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TheAuthorPOV
