- A new beginnig

A blue-tinted system window materialized before a mysterious hooded figure clutching a crimson-stained knife in a dimly lit alley, where a concealed body lay hidden behind trash cans.

Perplexed, the hooded figure mumbled to himself, "Hmm, what is this? Did I indulge too much before my killings? No, I only recall sipping one bottle of whisky."

As the enigmatic figure pondered, an unusual window appeared, and he voiced his confusion. "What does that mean?" he queried, though he doubted a response. However, to his surprise, the window transformed.

[System Information: Version 1.97665]

[Animal Species Count: 3,000]

[Entity Count: 8,000,000,000]

[Life Span: 0-100]

[Death: 30]

[Age: 29 years, 11 months, 29 days, 23 hours, 55 minutes, 30 seconds]

His eyes widened in astonishment as he scrutinized the information on the window. "This can't be real. Let me check when I turn 30; I had plans for more killings after that." Hastily, he retrieved his phone, accessed his calendar, and discovered that his thirtieth birthday was imminent. But before he could react, his exclamation was interrupted.

"Police! There's someone here with a knife, claiming they want to kill more people!" a woman nearby frantically reported to the authorities. The hooded figure abruptly shifted his focus and advanced toward the woman. In a swift motion, he silenced her. However, when he regained awareness of his surroundings, he found himself atop a police officer, with two others aiming their guns at him. In a resigned tone, he muttered, "Well, fu—" and was cut off by a gunshot.

[System: Now loading next form. Enjoy your next life.]

"Why was I chosen?" the bewildered figure wondered.

[System: Your karma is below the usual life form.]

"What is karma for the gods?" he inquired.

[System: YOU ARE A CANNIBAL, and there are no gods watching; they do not care about lower life forms.]

"What will this system do?"

[System: The system will guide the entity to gain positive karma.]

"And if my karma worsens?"

[System: The system can't stop you.]

"What will I become?"

[System: System will choose now.]

A Wheel of Fortune-like interface emerged. He stared at it intently, eager to see the outcome.

[Wheel of Fortune: You will be reborn as the summon of a summoner.]

"And my form?"

[System: Do you wish to create your own form?]

"Yes."

[System: Choose a race: [human][demi][undead][demon]]

He selected 'undead.'

[Undead: You don't need to eat, and some attributes will not affect you. Holy magic will damage you severely. You are weak during the day and can be resummoned if you lose dark energy or are killed.]

"What will lower my karma now?"

[System: Consuming anything living because there is no need to eat.]

[Next: Create your form, do you wish to make your own?]

"Yes, may I get information about the gods in the new world?"

[System: The system will grant that request.]

After a while, an entity stood before a dark haze, adorned with horned features resembling a wendigo skull. Its limbs were inscribed with symbols that insulted every god in both his previous and the new world, and a long tail trailed behind.

"Are you done?" the system inquired.

"Yes, what's next?"

[System: Specify your age, gender, health points, damage, and stamina.]

"I will be 2,000 years old, have no gender, and I want 1,000 HP, 100 damage, and 1,000 stamina."

[System: Granted. Do you wish to be able to level up or be a boss?]

"Yes."

[Error recorded.]

["Yes."]

[System: Sending question...]

[Waiting...]

[Resending question]

"What do you want, system?"

[System: The system asked if you wish to be able to level up or be a boss, and you answered yes.]

(After seeing the entity) The entity started to laugh, though the system and the MC remained oblivious.

"What's your name?" he was asked.

"I don't need to say my name; I will be renamed anyway," he replied.

"That's true, so I will grant this request. I hate these gods, and I will offer you a great opportunity. I will give you my blessing if you accept."

"I don't even know your name, so I won't know what power you hold."

"Fine. I am the god of despair. I looked at your history, and I have to say, you accomplished all of that on your own with no magic and in a mortal form. I will give you the ability to create massive suffering, but you will have the hunger to consume all that lives. Will you accept?"

"What's wrong with the hunger part?" he inquired.

"You will see. See you in your sleep."

[Request granted, applying blessing.]
