1 (Prologue)

In a void, filled with darkness. In this place which is described as the embodiment of nothingness. Supposedly, there should be nothing that exists in this space, because everything that is swallowed by the void will instantly vanish into existence.

This is what it should have been from the beginning. However, this all changed right this moment. In the space where nothing could exist. A humanoid white flickering light could be seen floating. Only a few could identify this humanoid light as a... soul.

In this place that can literally vanish one into nothingness instantly, this white light was as if the embodiment of light and life itself.

The darkness that is caused by the void of nothingness, it was trying to devour the light. Yet, no matter how it came closer, it always stopped several meters away from the light. It was as if the void was terrified of getting closer.

"Huh?... Where am I?..." A voice sounded from the space of eternal darkness. This was the white light's voice—no, the soul's voice.

"I guess I got stabbed and died saving that girl. I think it's worth it, dying while saving a beautiful girl. I lived my 20 years of life trying to be perfect. Finally, I almost succeeded, but it the end, I lost it all.

I deserved this, huh? When my parent died I didn't even shed a drop of tear from my eye or was I either depressed about it. The unbelievable thing is... I was even happy when they died.

The reason was because I was freed from their beliefs and teachings even though I know it was for my own good." The soul sighed.

"My family is considered to be rich, my parent's profession was a politician. They always taught me how to be exactly the same as them! And I hated it! I didn't want to be bounded by rules while scheming others in a devious way to gain advancement by stepping others.

Although there were good qualities about it. But, why can't I seem to remember? Anyway, I don't know why but in that place. Fighting and scheming each other is considered common.

(Note: A politician is a person who is professionally involved in politics, especially as a holder of or a candidate for an elected office also acts in a manipulative and devious way to gain advancement.)

(AN: I don't mean to make the image of those politicians bad. It was force majeure, I had to do it.)

"Well, enough of that. I regret not following them and regret not treating them right because they are still my parents, but what's done is done. I can't do anything about it, they died and I died, that's final.

Oh... right! Where am I? I see nothing but darkness all around me. Will I spend eternity here?" The soul wondered

Another light can be seen in the place that was once filled with darkness, it was getting closer and closer to the soul.

This was the second light that shined in the place that is full of darkness. Including the soul that is covered by white light.

The speeding white light's voice suddenly spoke,

"Human, this is the reincarnation cycle, it is where the soul that has good karma reincarnate from." The light said.

"Good karma? Haha, laughable. You don't even know who I am. Yet, you dare say something like that? I was pretty bad in my whole life, being happy that my parents died. Trying to become the perfect someone, to cover the guilt in my heart. Even though what's inside of my personality is as bad as fuck." The soul reacted with a sad laugh, it's as if the words of the light hit a fragile spot.

"Indeed. Your personality was indeed not good, but that doesn't change the fact that you saved someone in exchange for your life, and by doing that, overwrote your whole bad deeds. In the reincarnation cycle, what matters is what the person did in his/her last moment." The light explained.

"Overwrote, huh? Does that mean I was forgiven just like that? Really. It's really laughable I was suffering for almost half of my life, filled with regret, blamed myself on how I didn't treat them right! Now, I was forgiven this easy? What was my life even meant to?... worthless!"

"Worthless? I think your wrong about that, human. Did you know? By pretending to be your so-called perfect self, saved others. Let's give an example, the guy a whole year lower than you, he didn't have confidence but when he saw and talked with you. he felt warm and gain confidence because you were rooting for him." The light spoke as matter of fact.

---------------------------------------------------------------

"S-Senpai do you think I'm a loser? I always hid myself when someone tries to talk to me, as I felt like they will hate me because of what I am."

(He looks like a boy with nerdy glasses and bangs that is always alone)

"Hahahaha don't worry about that. Hmmm... how about we go out and cut your hair? Don't always hide behind that hair of yours, that's why people avoid you. Because they can feel and sense that gloomy aura of yours."

"You think so?"

After that, they went to a barbershop together to cut his hair and in a couple of days, his aura began to change. The result? He made a lot of friends.

Months later...

"Guys, that's my Senpai. His the one who I told you about. He helped me, greatly. If not form him, my current self wouldn't be here now..." The boy spoke when he saw his senpai.

Senpaiiii!!!" The boy ran energetically as he called out.

--------------------------------------------------------

"Did that really happen? Well, it would be good if it did."

The soul couldn't help but feel warm when he remembered the boy(Not really remembering, more like picturing it) and when he thinks he had saved him, he couldn't help but feel warm again, thinking that the boy is happy right now. He thought that maybe he wasn't worthless after all even though it was only one life.

"Human, that was not the only life you had saved; you saved many lives without knowing anything. Like the poor guy in the street, you gave money to, he is living, justly. All because of the measly money you gave him. That man felt pity for himself because he asked money for you and that gave him the motivation to work and earn money" The light told him.

"You can read my mind?.." He couldn't help but feel uncomfortable...

"Just don't mind that human. I assure you that I won't do anything to you." The light said

"Let me remind you again, if you forgot one of the biggest factor and that is the girl you saved after you died. Stalling the murderer, the police arrived on time to help her, currently, she is praying for you to... Live in peace..." The light added.

"Her, huh? Well, enough of my life. I already felt good not being worthless, knowing all of this. So, what is going to happen to me now?" The soul asked.

"Just like I said from the beginning, this is the reincarnation cycle so you will reincarnate, though more like will transmigrate; you will be living in another person's body; you won't be a baby again, you can relax." The light said.

"Transmigration huh...?" the soul wondered, mumbling, not knowing what to do

"Yes, transmigration. Just follow what I said and transmigrate peacefully. The world you transmigrate in is interesting, that I assure you.

Because in that world. There exist, what people call as modern magic. You humans hope to be someone like a hero, sage, saint or being respected by the masses, right? In that world, you can be one..." The light said

"W-what, w-wait. I'm not going back to my world? Also magic?." The soul stuttered in surprise.

"Yes, you won't be going back to your original world, because you can't go to the future there in your world. Only the past. What's more, if you go back to the past, it will cause a butterfly effect.

About magic, it is where you can do supernatural things like having massive strength, speed like the speed of sound and the ability to fly, etc..." The light explained everything to the soul.

(Note: Butterfly effect means doing small things that make the change bigger... for example, if our MC goes back to the past and do things differently. It will make the future change)

"Butterfly effect, huh? that's not what I have to think right now... I have to think about magic. Magic, huh? It seems like my unreachable dreams are emerging, I always wanted to be strong that nobody could stand in my way. I guess this is a chance, but I feel like I don't deserve a second chance, though." The soul commented, doubted himself.

"Ignore that and believe in yourself human, you are someone who has been given a chance to transmigrate, so don't waste this chance and just take it." The light advised.

"Oh... Okay... Fine and thanks, I will just forget about the bad things. I will live my life and fulfill unreachable dreams..." The soul nodded.

"That is the spirit human, don't bind yourself about the past and just continue and move forward to a better future. However, don't forget about the past because that is where you learn your mistake and prevent from doing it again." The light encouraged the soul.

"Thanks. I feel a lot better now. Also, learned somethings." The soul was feeling a bit better.

"Now that you have decided, I will immediately proceed with the transfer toward your new world!!!" The light spoke, tone filled with godliness.

"W-wait, w-wait a minute!!! Do you have any things for me to survive in that world? What if I don't have magic or an affinity for it? I will suffer again, can you at least give some advice or things for me to survive in that unknown world.

As I am right now, I am pretty sure that I will suffer, surely there are many ruthless people there. There is even a possibility that having no magic will be discriminated on" The soul said in a rush.

"Haha, don't be so anxious, human. I didn't forget. I just forgot to explain about it..." The light laughed, heartily.

"Stop laughing! I'm serious!" The soul shouted in a very loud and angry voice.

"Okay-Okay.. let's discuss the matter now, seriously..." The light agreed.

"I was serious from the start..." The soul mumbled in a very low voice.

"I will give you thee, Unrivaled System Human... this is the best thing that I created when you maxed it out; you will even surpass me, a God!" The light, now a God said.

"You are a God?!! I was very curious about this from the start but didn't find for the right moment to ask, I know it's too late, but still, let me ask this. Who are you? Why are you being kind to me? " the soul said:

"Let me answer that, as you have heard before, I am God or should I say the one who ruled the gods. About being nice to you. Hmm... Well, I just think you deserve this, but most of it was for fun..."

"For Fun?..." The soul couldn't process the gods words. Is it because it's the language of gods?

"Well, as you know there are more people who have done more good deeds than you. I just picked you because you were closer...this is my first time picking one though, because minor gods are the one doing this job. You are lucky, Hahaha." The God laughed.

"I don't know what to think anymore..." The soul shook his head, he was left speechless.

'You mean all of this was because I was lucky? Well, damn shit!!! I don't care anymore, let's bed one with this...' The soul thought.

"Let's not talk about it anymore. Please explain to me what that system is and does it do. After we're done, freaking transmigrate me." The soul said, not wanting to lengthen his conversation with the self-proclaimed god.

The system that you mentioned, it's called the Unrivaled System. It's a system I created that can make literally anything or anyone become Unrivaled. It will guide you to a path that can make you the peerless number one. Unrivaled throughout the whole universe.

Like me, right now. I'm Unrivaled. However, I still didn't use the system, as it was only finished, recently.

I possessed this power without the system's help. If you used and is guided by this system to become the absolute number one. When you're at your peek, even I can't stand against you." The God spoke. He was full of praise about the system.

"If you give this to me, wouldn't that be like raising a wolf? In the end, it will bite you..." The soul said.

"Haha, that is what I want. Being unrivaled in this universe. I've grown tired of it, that's why I'll make you my inheritor." The God laughed, happily.

"Why me, though?" The soul asked

"Because you're lucky..." The God said bluntly

"..." The soul was stunned

"Enough talking, we don't have time to waste. I still have something to do. I will give you a drop of my blood, this will make you more stronger. Although it will be locked, for now. It will unlock by itself little by little as you grow stronger..." The God said.

The god then gave the soul a drop of his blood and left with final words before he disappeared and everything was covered by light.

"The system will explain to you how it will be used and always remember this...

The World is full of wonders, the unknown exists, and many possibilities can happen, even the strongest can be the weakest in another place, so don't get too full of yourself. If you have great power, always be cautious, don't abuse your power too much because:

"With great power, Comes with great responsibilities."

The Soul then vanished in white lights.

The God mumbled in his breath.

"Existing in my void? Yet, it was only a fragment of it. Truly, an anomaly. Maybe, he can gain and harness that power. Because even I—
