New life

James woke up and slowly open his eyes. 'Weird, where am I right now? Hospital perhaps but I thought I'm dead already'. He saw a ceiling with a rotating fan.

He felt weird then he remember that he supposed to be dead. He then get down from the bed and take off his shirt. He look at his stomach. There is no wound at all!

'No wound at all? How come?' He pondered for a moment. After a while, he remembered now, just before he fell unconscious he heard something his head. 'What the hell is going on right now? and where is this? This is not my room.' Just as he pondering, he heard something in his head.

"Ding! Greeting host, I am a system that has been bind with your soul"

"What the hell? Am I turning crazy?" James shocked when he heard the robotic voice.

"No host. You are not crazy or turning crazy right now. You are completely sane" The robotic voice answered.

"If I'm not crazy, what are you?" James asked

"I'm a system that has been bind to you as a gift for you courageous action in your past life."

"What? My past life? Then you want to say that I already dead?"

"Yes and no host. Now you are alive but in your previous life, you already died because of the bleeding due to the gunshot."

"If I died then how come I still alive right now?"

"Host has been granted a second life, a chance for you to compensate what you lose in your previous world."

"What I lost? My previous world? Am I not at Earth right now?"

"Yes host, the current world's name is Ozrorth."

"Ozrorth? Like a fantasy name. Anyway, you said that I got compensations for what I lost when I at Earth. What are they?"

"Yes host, you have been given with several gifts which is including me, the system."

"What are the others?"

"The list of gifts you received will be listed right now." Right after the system answer his question, he saw a panel in front of him.

[ List of gifts ]

-1500 Gift Points

-1 000 000 USD( can be converted to local currency)

-Local identity

- Ozrorth's history knowledge

'Hmm, so my money from Earth are given back to me. Local identity? Well without that I will be illegal immigrant and will be hunted by local authorities. That will terrible outcome. The history knowledge also good compensation for me since I know nothing about this world.

"System, what is Gift points? and is the history knowledge in form of book?'

"Gift points is a form of currency used in the system's store. You can purchase gifts using the points in the store. The history knowledge is not in form a book. If you want to redeem the gift, just say it."

"I see, then system."

"Yes host"

"I want to redeem Ozrorth's history knowledge"

"Sure host, you will receive the gift in 5,4,3,2,1."

Then James felt a big headache. He felt like his brain was being torn apart by knife or something sharp. After a couple of minutes, the headache gradually subside.

"Damn, what a horrible headache. Thanks god it just a few minute. If it take longer, I will go insane. Anyway, so the knowledge is like a string of data that will be received by my brain. doing that, i can fully digest it without need to read for hours." James then sit down on a chair beside the bed and organized his thought.

Ozrorth is bigger than Earth by 2 times, however there are only 5 continent. Current era is modern era same like Earth. The population currently is about 10 billion people. Not that high if compared with Earth. The reason why the population not that high is because there are still places that have no people even though Ozrorth is bigger than Earth. Most people lived at the city. The rest live in small community.

Unlike Earth, there are only 5 countries which the strongest is Empire of Helnetes follow by Great Xin Empire, Akimoto Shogunate, Yi Dynasty and Kingdom of Crumia. Each country occupy a continent. All country using same language which is Ozroth language. They also using same currency which is Ozroth Dollar(OD)

'Right now the country I resided is Kingdom of Crumia, the weakest country.'

Kingdom of Crumia has the population of about 500 million people. The city that James currently at was Duncaster with the population 10 million people. Duncaster city is the smallest city in the Kingdom of Crumia.

"So now I am at Duncaster City. Anyways system, what I can buy using the Gift Points?" James now eager on what he can buy with the points.

"Opening the store. Here is the list."

[Store]

Advance Artificial Intelligence (Artificial Intelligence with advance intelligence. Have the advance feature to help the host) - 10 000 gift points

Intermediate Artificial Intelligence (Artificial Intelligence with intermediate intelligence. Have the intermediate feature to help the host) - 5 000 gift points

"Strength? Intelligent? Damn, is this mean I can see my status? Hey system, how can I see my status?" James become excited because just like how the MC in the light novel he read before, he can see his own status.

"Yes host, you can see your own status. Just think or say the word 'Status' to see your status" .

"Nice. Alright then, STATUS!" James become way too excited.

"Wow, cool. I think perhaps average adult's attribute point is at 10. Well, looking at my own attribute, I guess also one of those average guys. Anyway since there are the serums in the store, I can increase it late. Hey system, what is the ratio conversion of USD to OD?"

"1 USD is equal to 10 OD. USD have higher value since USD has sentimental value to the host so the system increase the rate. How much you want to convert host?"

"I see but you know what system, I don't care about sentimental value it have since this is about money we talking right now. So system, please convert all USD to OD."

"Okay host, all the money have been converted to local currency"
