Shadow Being System

Check out my other books: Demon Being System and The Neptune Guardian. In a world where strength determines one's future, William, an orphan with no extraordinary talents, faces a grim destiny—until a brutal attack leaves him clinging to life. Instead of death, he awakens to a mysterious and powerful entity lurking within his mind: the Shadow System, a game-like interface that promises him unimaginable power. But this power comes with dark secrets, and refusing it would mean his death. Forced into a pact with a voice that can hear his every thought, William must navigate a dangerous new reality where shadow abilities and celestial power collide. As he enters the prestigious military academy, his newfound abilities draw both allies and enemies, all while a deadly conspiracy brews in the shadows. With the odds stacked against him, William must unravel the mystery of the Shadow System and decide whether to embrace the darkness within—or be consumed by it. His journey from a bullied outcast to a potential god will challenge not just his survival, but his very humanity. Power always comes at a cost—will William be able to pay the price? "What am I?" William asked the system. The system’s voice echoed in his head, cold and indifferent. "You are nothing."

DBS Chapter 15

It had been a week since Kaden had received the system, and in that time, he'd grown accustomed to the strange presence inside his mind. But despite the newfound powers and potential, his situation had remained the same—he was still out here, on the outskirts, training alone.

The forest was quiet, save for the rhythmic sound of Kaden's fists striking trees. He'd carved shapes into the trunks to give himself a target—a crude method, but it worked for now. His punches were simple, just raw force. He was relying on the little bit of combat training his father had taught him when he was younger—those lessons were few, and Kaden had almost forgotten most of them. But he remembered enough to throw a decent punch, even if it wasn't refined.
