PROLOGUE
A pale young boy opened his eyes and looked around with furrowed brows while trying to chase away the pain and dizziness from his head.
He has short purplish silver hair, beautiful icy blue green almond shaped eyes framed with long full lashes, a small nicely curved nose, pale red petal like lips and flawless skin that is as smooth and soft as jade. His long lashes dropped downward making his doll like appearance very cute.
His eyes carefully scanned around the room for any sign of life while his face remained impassive. His brows furrowed while his eyes swept across the space once again.
He woke up in this small white room shrouded in nothing but pure white and he has been sleeping in the floor of this space for quite some time now but he just noticed that he wasn't cold nor shivering from the floor which isn't normal since this is not his room.
[welcome! I am system 001; the cannon fodder will counter attack, the very first of its series]
The young man "...."
he looked around the room but there is still no sign of life in the space where he was in.
The young man's eyes immediately sharpened and the system felt a cold chill on its imaginary spine but, it immediately forgot it after looking around and finding nothing but its host.
It's not like it is looking down on its host and it can't be blamed either since its host looks like someone who can't even truss a chicken.
While the young man was busy looking around, he heard the childish voice again
[host, you have been bound to me]
The young man remains silent "...."
[cough, host, you have been selected to have a contract with me while in return you will be granted a second chance at life or any other wish you may have as long as you fulfil what come with the contract]
"I refuse" the young said with his face not having any emotional changes at all at the information he has just been presented with.
[cough, host, it's extremely simple, you just have to take over another person's body and fulfil their death bed wishes that is all and in return, you will receive many benefits.]
"I am not a wishing well"
[host, it's a good opportunity. You get to travel through the many worlds and experience many things in every world.]
The young man "..."
The system seeing the young man quietly listening to his explanation, [now, let's get to the main poi-]
"Send me back" the young man cut in.
[.... host, cough, you can't go back except through soul obliteration or mission completion...] the system finished with its voice turning into murmurs
"Oh" the young man's eyes flashed a bit before returning passive
"Then what other benefits do you have?"
[host, you are not going?]
"Is my body still alive?" The young man asked instead of answering the system's question
[I don't know host since I was told to come and receive my host here but I can tell you that whosoever appears here doesn't have a physical body and they can only appear here when their physical body dies]
the system was very happy to answer its host question before realising that he just made a fool out of its self for asking stupid questions.
"Oh" the space fell into an awkward silence that made the system wants to pull its intact imaginary hair out (a/n: that is only if you have one)
It coughed before resuming to answer its host questions [ host, I will give you a full comprehensive explanation of everything so please do listen. you can choose to stay or leave the world after completing a mission but if your mission fails, you will be punished and the punishment can vary too because the higher the mission difficulty, the heavier the punishment will be. The world is classified into eleven levels of difficulty which starts from F grade being the lowest and SSS grade being the highest. Points will be given depending on world levels and mission difficulty. Points can be used to access the system market that is closed now but will be open as long as you obtain your first point.
You can buy anything from the market and those things consist of one time use items and permanent use items and you can take them into any world along with you.
Missions are divided into three parts and they are the main mission which is a fixed mission that has to fulfilled at all cost and if not done, you will receive punishment for it so please do strive to compete these first before anything else. The second part is the side mission which might appear when you meet any character of importance but it is not a must to fulfil these types of quests but you will receive points if you do them so, please do them if you have the time. The third part is the hidden mission, this type of mission rarely pops out but if it does, it means you can abandon one of the main missions you were doing and urgently fulfil these and if not done, you will be punished even if you fulfil all the main missions but if done, the reward is even more than the main mission and this type of mission can only be unlocked if the host reaches the requirements for it and the requirements are unknown even to me.
Apart from receiving points, the host also receive energy which we call soul energy from the world where the mission was completed. This type of energy is the best nourishment for the soul.
Oh yeah host, if you'd mission is successful, you will be given an option to learn skills for free]
After listening to all the explanations, the young man went quiet for a while 'it doesn't seem bad even though I am being forced. I can accumulate energy and by the end of all the missions and world travelling I will be free to go back and see what happened to me and my body' he thought to himself before he was interrupted by the system
[cough, host, do you want to learn a skill? This option is only given to newcomers just once]
"Let me see the skills"
[okay host, here they are]
A transparent screen popped in front of the young man
{cooking}
{communication}
{martial art}
{acting}
{singing}
And the lists go on ... the young man carefully studied it before choosing
"I choose acting"
The system froze before responding sluggishly [host, why acting?] it felt like crying since it wanted its host to choose communication because he hates the always present awkward silences with all its imaginary being.
"Every world I am going to, doesn't it need me to act as the original character?"
[ah...! Host, you just reminded me! You have to act as the original character and only two out of character is allowed but, you can change the original's character only little by little not abruptly.] it shivered at the thought of its host not reminding it and its host going out of character and being kicked out of the world. 'Thank goodness my host is smart'
"Oh" The young man returned to his only one word is gold speaking making the system feel very awkward again
[host, do you want to learn the skill now?]
"Yes"
[oh yeah, host can you give me permission to transfer you to the first world after you come out of training?]
The young man's pale lips twitched...'how stupid is its creator? Shouldn't it ask for permission first before binding?'
The young man nodded with his face still remaining impassive.
Meanwhile, the system after receiving the youth's permission fully became visible to the naked eyes of the young man in the space.
Seeing the round ball that suddenly appeared in the space, the young man became speechless.
[ host, this is my body. Nice to meet you. You can change my name if you don't like it and please tell me your name since we will be working together for a long time]
"Yue and we can call you 01"
[Yue, beautiful.] 'My host has no naming sense at all'
[host, I will now transport you to the training ground in 30 seconds..., please be prepared
20...10...5...4, 3, 2, 1, 0!]
A bright light enveloped Yue and when he opened his eyes once again, he was in a large room filled with acting instruments and dummies in different postures.
Bunch of data streamed and formed a tall slender man in elegant posture. A mechanical voice came out of the man
"I will be your teacher"
"You will not be able to leave this space until you've mastered the art and have reached the grandmaster level in it"
Yue nodded in agreement
Yue stayed inside the space training ground for thirty years.
Upon coming out, [host, welcome back! Congratulations on mastering your first skill. Would you love to start your first mission or rest for a while?]
"Start"
[okay...
Transitioning in 35 seconds, 20....10...5, 4, 3, 2. 1, 0!]
Yue closed his eyes when the countdown reached zero.
