1 It Has Begun

Life is a boring gimmick, I think.

Everyday I go to school, I read, I write, I eat, I shit, I sleep and then the next day begins and the routine restarts again and continues on.

God knows how I hated this sense of normalcy. I felt caged, I didn't like that the world was similar to a cage for me, and it felt inexplicably suffocating.

Oh who am I ?.

You've been reading about me and I forgot to tell you. Let me introduce myself then, born in July 17, 1990, I, Rex Joseph Murphy am but a 15 year old.

Funny how I am 15 and yet I feel like the world is but a boring hellhole of repetition. It might be puberty like my mom says, but it could also be me being angsty like my dad says, but I have always been like that.

You see I was built different from the boring people around me.

The moment I learnt to walk I knew my talent. I was a born Genius in anything and everything physical, so by the age of 4 I was already riding and flying on skateboards, not literally fly but just going whooosh, and swooosh on it.

You see this Greek Body of mine fitted with black hair and blue eyes, you won't find a single more handsome guy than me.

Anyway I was an odd one, and even now I am considered an odd one. Children my age tend do a lot of odd activities, they fight, they run around, they party, they do drugs, they socialize, etc. you get the gist of it.

Not me though.

I hate these mundane activities.

Why ?, well when you are a Genius like me there is literally very little that can make my blood pump. For every Genius in existence there is something that makes them feel genuinely stimulated.

For me that is doing extreme sports, the feel of adrenaline when you climb a steep mountain without gear or guidance is just what makes me smile genuinely.

Like they say, I am the kind of guy that likes living on the edge of life. That is also why a normal life doesn't really suit me.

It makes me feel suffocated and pressed on my chest like a heavy weight with each breathe I take. I do not feel joy acting like the sheep around me. Always content with the grass around them to never realise that their wool is being shaved by someone else.

Perhaps that is why I see a blue box in my vision.

[ Selected Host for Transmigration of Another Soul ]

It must either be me hallucinating, or someone drugged the entire class, with a teacher inside it.

[ The Soul of Rex Joseph Murphy is too strong ]

Yeah I am strong, that is what I wanted to say in between those rants that I was doing.

[ The weaker soul has been devoured by Rex's soul ]

Wait what just happened ?.

Did I just kill something by simply existing ?

[ Information from the weaker soul will be processed by the greater soul ]

In that instant I felt woozy, it was my first time feeling woozy. I cannot really describe it properly, but if I had to say the first thing that happened was my vision twisted.

I felt out of focus and my sense of balance weakened, so I stood up shakily to inform the teacher but instead fainted right away.

I awoke a while later in the infirmary I think, to a nurse who looked at me and said "Hmmm weak body, lacks strength and nutrition. What happened to this kid to have a body as weak as a childs ?".

I couldn't help but voice my objections "What, I am not weak !!!".

With the kind of Genius talent I have, I can never be weak. Instead I am stupidly strong, last I checked I was able to easily bench press 120 kg of weights.

The nurse then replied to me, "That's not what the report says though".

I sat on my bed but I felt very weak, having a sort of premonition I lifted my shirt and my chiseled abs had all but disappeared. No, I had worked hard on my body, I had climbed mountains, bicycled the highways, defeating the cars on it, only then did I gain a body fitter than a professional athletes. But now it was all skin and bones.

Now all my hard work had gone down the drain. No think calmly Rex, how did this all begin. Aahhh it was when I saw that prompt, that blue box in my vision.

[ Destroying Rex's body to fit the level standards ]

It took me a while but with the now organized and new sets of memories in my head, I understood. The reason for my hard work going down the drain was this stupid system.

'What the hell did you do, you stupid system'.

[ Only with flaws can there exist the concept of perfection ]

'That explains literally nothing'.

You could have said 'Only with seeds do trees grow' and it would literally be the same for me.

I guess me having the expression of despair must have been an odd sight for the nurse. Because she placed her hand on my head and said "Seems like the patient doesn't have a fever, hmmm, let's have a test for mental issues".

"I am fine", I voiced out to the nurse, who seemed like she was readying something. But I had greater priorities in mind, the system weakened me, but it should also offer me the channels to increase my strength right.

[ MOBA system asks you to choose between Multiple Game Application or Single Game Application ]

Huh, hmmm before any of that give me my hard earned body of a Greek God back.

[ Your Body right now fits the standard of a Level One. There are many advantages to beginning at Level One ]

How can being Level One even help me, are you pulling a joke on me.

[ First Character Slot shall be locked should you wish for your body to return to its previous state ].

Wait, wait, if I think and know of the type of system this is gonna be, then that character slot is effectively the first skill I get for free or something like that.

Too less information, I don't want to take a risk in this sort of juncture. I might lose the only thing that will break me free of my normal life forever.

Let's just choose between the multiple or single type of system.

From what I think this is gonna be like, I think Multiple would mean, multiple amount of MOBA games and their characters to pick powers from, and singular being one single game to pick characters and their powers from.

The choice is clear, I will take the Multiple option, hmmm why do my hands feel weak, I think I feel a bit sleepy as well. What is that stinging sensation on my shoulder.

Then I turned to my right and saw the glorious nurse smile at me while she took the needle out of my shoulder and patted me at my back as she said "Have sweet dreams".

I tried to keep my eyes open or my mind sound enough to continue the selection, but whatever it was she injected me with, I could not resist for more than 5 seconds, then I fell inside the darkness.

[ Host is incapable of selecting the options ]

[ Random Selection Begins ]

[ Single Game Application has been selected ]

[ Random roulette has been activated ]

[ MLBB has been selected as the Single Game Application ]

The nurse looked harrowed, she thought that the child was a pitiful case, he had suddenly contracted some sort of disease that broke his muscles and fat down to nothingness till he looked like a starving kid from a third world.

But no matter how many times the doctor checked for possibilities of the disease being contagious or even the existence of such a disease, he came out blank.

It hurt the doctors pride and conscience to dismiss such a dangerous disease. So he reported the situation to the higher ups in Disease Control and the next thing they knew was FBI visiting them for this strange phenomenon. After observing and taking away the data they collected, they were also forced to sign many NDA's of all sorts.

Also the FBI asked for them to try and sedate the boy for the last checkup that would be done by them. Well the disease was an odd one, perhaps the FBI with disease control would discover something.

Expecting that they followed all their instructions and carried the boy off to another hospital. The FBI also informed Rex's parents who had yet to be informed of Rex's predicament.

It had been but a few hours and you can't really blame Rex for thinking that he had been at the infirmary. That should have been the case but seeing his muscles and fats breaking down at dangerous speeds, the infirmary doctor was forced to call an ambulance.

It was an emergency case if you were a regular human. As evident by the reactions of the doctor and the eye witnesses.

But for the FBI there was only one... okay maybe they had more questions. But the most prominent one was, 'Was this phenomenon connected with Vampires ?'.

The FBI witnesses many things, many horrible events and many terrible things. As such it is rumoured that for every type of case, there would exist a Division.

So they had to preliminary investigate cases like Rex's. You would not believe the sheer amount of Fake Cases that appear in FBI's radar. Demonic Cults claiming supernatural phenomenon, caves with unidentified Supernaturals, Evil Gods mind controlling humans, etc.

As such it is always customary to investigate cases with high speed and deal with it at high speed. Even if they profess the safety of the nation, they cannot run around saving everyone from everything.

The FBI officer Felt, who had had more fake cases than real ones was completely irritated. He had a few cases where he truly saw the Vampires and Werewolves, so it was much more frustrating for him to find cases with good stories to turn out to be fakes.

"Is it a dud ?" , Felt asked.

Silence filled the room. Though no one really said anything everyone knew. But still nobody had the guts to disappoint Felt.

Felt was clearly the most heavily invested in many of the Hoax cases such as these, but the few amount of real cases of Supernatural Phenomenon was very much disappointing.

Felt who most likely knew their state of mind just laughed, "Don't worry, I won't blame you guys, I knew what I was getting into when I began reopening case files such as these".

His dedication was respected as the subordinate continued, "It is most likely but a low level curse done by teenager kids due to jealousy. Rex Murphy isn't really the most likable teenager in his class and his school time events most probably left a few childish enemies of his own. Also his life really wasn't threatened, all that happened was that he was weakened. Most probably he will be fine by the next month or more".

Felt was annoyed but he was reassured as well, if it was just low level curses then this case was beneath his jurisdiction. After all finding a real monster was more terrifying than children playing around with little things they didn't know about.

"We will issue an explanation and leave this case for observation lest our negligence be the reason someone loses their lives".

With that Felt wrapped up the case and Rex was reinstalled to a normal hospital after a day. He was then given the Green Card for health related problems and allowed visit from others.

Rex... well he slept throughout the whole ordeal unable to wake up from the heavy amount of sedatives given to him. Whatever the nurse injected him with was clearly more than necessary for Rex's body right now.

She was investigated by the FBI as well when Rex woke up more than a few days later.
