1 Unforeseen Circumstances

*DING*

[Host's mortal body has perished, forcefully authenticating transfer... 5%... 17%... 23%... 37%... 51%... 68%... 82%... 85%... 98%... 100%... authentication complete, moving host's soul to the pre-determined world... 57%... 92%... 100%... body with 99% comparability located, starting merge... 36%... 78%... 100%... host found to be unconscious, shocking awake]

*ZAP*

"Ouch! Huh? Didn't I die? What's this? Where am I?" being awoken by the shock, Simo sits up straight like a log. Feeling a flood of memories pouring into his head, he grimaces in pain.

(Turns out I'm in a different world after dying? And I took over this body after he passed away. His name was Simo Weste like me? Age is.. 17? Well that does make things easier. Let's have a look at what I know about his situation. First prince in a country of 450 million citizens, called Weste Kingdom? And he the reason he died.. hunger? He refused to eat after the woman he loved was married to his younger brother by his parents, even though they knew he loved her? I'll rectify this for you buddy, you can rest peacefully.)

*DING*

[Abnormality in space detected, foreign soul detected entering host's body.]

"Who's this?! Where are you?! Stop hiding!"

[Responding to host, I am the system known as God Pinnacle System, or GPS for short. You do not have to talk for me to respond, mere mental thoughts can do it for you. Host, the foreign soul is about to enter your soul realm, what do you wish to do?]

(GPS huh.. well that's pretty ironic.. Anywho, who's the fella trying to get into my so called soul realm?)

[Foreign soul is a level 7 soul, stronger than host by 4 levels. Calculating survival rate of host.. 0%. Does host wish to begin his 1 year of beginner protection?]

(Do it!)

[As you wish.]

*DING*

-Player has gained Beginner Protection (1 year)-

Inside Simo's soul realm, the other soul barged in and stood in front of Simo's soul with a wicked and ruthless grin. The soul which had the appearance of an elderly man with a long beard laughed madly and said

"Hahahaha, so you finally died brat! Allow this dragon god to take over your body, to once again stand on top of this world!" after which, the man struck forward both of his hands to grab a hold of Simo's soul, grasping it tightly.

[Host has two options available to him with the Beginner Protection. One, destroy the foreign soul. Two, absorb the foreign soul and gain the memories of the soul. Note, option two may have some side effects.]

Simo thought fast, and decided the old goat may have valuable information seeing as he said he once stood at the top of the world, so he yelled in his mind

(Option two! Absorb him!)

[Absorption acknowledged and beginning]

Out of seemingly nowhere a massive suction force came from Simo's soul, drawing in the elderly soul, forcing it closer and closer to Simo's. The elderly soul immediately knew something was wrong and started screaming at Simo

"No! Let me go! I made a mistake! I'm sorry! Let go of me! I've got mu..." his voice trailed off as he was instantly absorbed into Simo's soul.

[Congratulations to host for upgrading Soul level from level 2 to level 7]

[Congratulations to host for unlocking Soul Weapon: Barrett M82]

[Congratulations to host for acquiring the title, Devourer of the Chaos God Dragon]

[Congratulations to host for acquiring the title, Reincarnation Absorber]

[Congratulations to host for obtaining the bloodline, Chaos God Dragon (sealed)]

Four successive congratulations rang out in Simo's head, which made him greatly curious as to what happened, so he decided to ask the system.

[Responding to host, a soul has multiple levels which ranges from one till nine, where one is the lowest and nine being the highest, and strongest soul. After absorbing the foreign soul, host gained titles which gives a certain bonus depending on the title. All titles are passive. Host also obtained the Chaos God Dragon bloodline by absorbing the soul. The bloodline is sealed, and the way for host to unseal it is by reforming the body. Does host wish to reform body to unseal Chaos God Dragon bloodline?]

(I see. Guess that does make some sense. Yes, please reform my body to unseal the bloodline.)

[Note to host, reforming the body will cause excruciating pain, and host will not be allowed to rest until the reformation has been completed]

(Do it!)

[Understood. Beginning the reforming of host's body]

In the beginning, Simo thought it would be easy, and the pain wasn't anything major. Thirty minutes later, the pain had increased by hundredfold causing Simo to scream out in pain. The reforming took five hours in total, and every time the pain was near unbearable levels and he was about to dose off, the system shocked him back awake.

[Congratulations to host for unsealing bloodline, Chaos God Dragon bloodline]

Simo opened his eyes, and noticed his body covered in black grime and filth, almost making him vomit. He ran out of the room, and by following the memories of the previous Simo, arrived at the bathroom to clean himself. After 10 minutes, a youth about 1.87 metres tall, black long hair, jade green eyes, not overly muscular, but still well toned and a well sculpted face, stood out of the bath looking at himself in the mirror with shock written all over his face.

"Is this me? I'm this handsome? This could be quite troublesome" he murmured to himself. He grabbed some baggy trousers and put them on, and then walking back towards his room while talking with the system in his mind.

(GPS, can you find the best suited cultivation manual for me in the memories of that old goat? Also, do you know what my level my talent is at?)

[Certainly, host. The most suited cultivation art for you would be the 'Apex Chaos Dragon Scripture'. Host's talent has been upgraded to God Tier by reforming the body.]

(I see, can you imprint the scripture directly into my mind? Also, isn't there usually some sort of beginner package when you arrive in a new world, like in those novels?)

[Indeed it is possible to do that, and it is also the best way. I have finished imprinting the scripture into your mind, and you should be able to access it easily. Host is correct, you have already received the Beginner Parcel upon transmigrating into this world. Would host like to open it?]

(Yes!)
