New beginning

This is...

So if i accept the side mission... I will be granted a superpower?

[That's right]

But...what kind of superpower?

[Apologies, but I can't tell the host what it is]

...

If I accepted to do the side mission...can I use that superpower to help me achieve my goal?

[The host can use it]

What? really?

Isn't that sound too, op?

What if the powers were something like mind control? Isn't that too overpower?

... But considering a higher being was the one that made the system, that also means it knows and realises everything, especially this part.

Giving a human being a superpower.

... So I'll trust it, that the power might not give a significant change. That could affect the human realm.

...

...Well after experiencing death and have a conversation with this so-called system. I started to open my mind more and trust it.

it's feel...nice.

Knowing someone plans all this and everything will definitely follow the story...

... sound so reassure...I'm literally going to get sent somewhere else, but strangely, I don't feel any worried.

Is this also one of the reasons why most people are attracted to religions?

I never understand why they always believe the life was already been planned without a flaw.

Like, you are literally addicted to drugs. What do you mean?

I never understood them before when I first heard the answer, but now that I give it some thought . It's kinda make sense.

...well, i don't quite understand that yet.

...

...huh...

...why am I like this?

It is so easy to accept a concept that I never thought I would.

Is this also the reason why...the system chose me?

Because of my mindset?

To begin with, what could a higher being want from this helpless human?

I don't have anything that could be profitable for a literally god.

...

wait.. Do it want my faith?

...I mean, even if it wants that, I'm find that reasonable but also confused since there must be someone who is far greeter than me out there. Who can be more religious than myself.

...well, maybe for entertaining?

Could be.

...

...let's leave that for later...

I should focus...for now...

...

So the side mission that I have to do is...

[Yes, save the unfortunate soul from the bad ending]

Bad ending...

[Sucid*]

Explain it to me.

[Just like how the host compared a game ending based on the choice, in real life, it is also the same]

[People who get corner on the edge of the cliff will see no hope and will most likely choose what in front of them even if its most likely to lead to the bad ending]

[So before they choose the bad ending, the host have to save them]

...I don't know, they chose to end their suffering... I admit that was bad, but how can it be a bad ending? there far worse ending out there than this.

[Every living being have their own ending, but everything was related to nature death, such as old age, illness, accident, or being killed by anything]

[But sucid* is considered far worse bad than the other, because a human itself going against both nature and fate, and take their's own life]

...

[And that is also why the system decided to assign a side mission for the host. To stop their's suffering so they could keep living before they die]

... But the god could make anything that suffer them go away, why bother me doing it?

[...]

[#@×??!?%&^*_;",->]

what?

...

[Would the host like to cancel the side mission?]

Umm... No...

...

I won't question it more...

...

But there's a lot of them. 1 out of 3 people are suicidal. How am I gonna save them all?

[That is why the host had been granted a superpower]

[There's will be 5 stages that the host needs to unlock in order to use the full power]

How do I unlock it?

[By gaining an Exp]

Exp? It sounds like a game...

How do I gain an Exp?

[By achieving the goal]

Eh?You mean?

[For example, since the host goal was to be an idol. Every time, the host practices dancing, singing, or even working out. The host will automatically gain an Exp, and the exp will naturally add up until another stage unlock]

Do I have a status window where I can see all my status?

[Unfortunately, no]

Oh... Well, I'm a bit disappointed, but of course, it's too convenient to have one.

But what if...I somehow didn't manage to save a person life from the bad ending?

[There's no punishment for it since that is only a side mission. Though I do want to remind the host that, every time the host failed to save someone who the host could save to begin with. The host will lose a certain amount of exp, and if it keeps going, the power then will slowly fade away]

[And when it happens, the side mission will automatically get cancelled]

...

[Even though the host was there for the experiment and side mission, it is also a new life to live. So please have a lot of fun and enjoy every single moment while achieving the goal and save other people alongside the host journey]

[Since I've already passed the message, even answer all the questions, it seems the time is up. The new body is ready to receive the host soul]

I see... then will I...loses my memory?

[Don't worry as only some conversations will be erased, while the important one will stay]

How about my past memory?

[Unfortunately, as i say it before. Since the host is no longer associated with that world, the host memory will disappear the moment the host soul enters the new body]

...

I see...

haha...in the end of the day, the experience that I have also gone...

Just like death... even if you are talented, smart, rich, and have a lot of experience.

At the end of the day...

... When you die, you die, and none of it matters.

[Please enjoy your life while completing the experiment and side mission. our system wishes the host all the best]

Thank you...and...

[..?.]

Is this gonna be the same world or...

[...]

..oh?

Kring!! kring!!

"Huuu...."

Kring!! kring!!

An alarm clock was ringing, indicating that the time is up, for the owner of the clock to wake up and get ready for the day.

Kring!! kring!!

The alarm clock keeps ringing to disturb the owner's dream without a sign of stopping.

But even so, the owner was still deep in slumber.

A few moments later, the door opened, and the light emerged into the dark and small room. where's the alarm clock owner residence.

"Hey, you should get up now,"

As the voice speak, a footsteps could be heard walking near the owners. After close enough, it crouched to get even closer to the owner before shaking the owner body to wake it up.

"The whole family had already awake because of your alarm. Wake up already. "

It said, as the shaking got more aggressive when the owner didn't show a sign of awakening any time soon.

"Gosh, just awake already, will you. And have you forgotten? You have school today, "

"Ugh..." The owner groans as he finally moves and snaps out of his dream.

The owner of the voice just sighed as he looked at the owner with a hopeless expression.

"Now, now. Come on , you don't want to be late, right?"

The owner finally wakes up, and he sits straight up while rubbing his eyes. After a few seconds stretching his body, he finally moves his blanket from his body and stands up.

But before he could move towards the doors, a hand was holding on his head.

He turned around and lifted his head and saw the owner of the voice staring right into his eyes before pointing his finger towards the mattress and blanket that was laying at the floor messily.

"Clean your room first," He says with a soft smile on his lip. After that, he walks straight out of the room.

The owner just sighed before he lowered his body and picked up the blanket before folding it properly and doing the same with the mattress.

He then carries the mattress first and puts it on the corner of the rooms before turning his body and also doing the same with the blanket. Put it on top of the mattress properly, so it didn't become messy.

Due to its small body, he can't carry large and heavy things on his own. So he figured that he needed to do it repeatedly just to carry 2 fabric that was not even 1kg.

Though that's only the case for a grown-up, when he is currently just a 7 years old boy.

Even when I have lived in this world for 2 weeks, it's still hard to adjust myself into a new environment.

I don't remember my past life, but I am very much a grown-up. I also have a habit not clean after my own mess, which is hard to suddenly change it.

Apparently, this owner body was a distant relative of this family. Because of the family incident, both the owner parents divorced, leaving him all alone without any guardian.

So because of a pity, this family decided that they would take care of me until I graduated high school.

I don't really know anything about the incident. But leaving a child without any guardian? what a trash, parents. Not all parents deserve children. Some of them are mentally ill like mine.

If they can't handle their's own mental health its better not to have children.

The family that took me in was a distant relative of this body. They are 4 family members. A father, older brother, older sister, and younger brother who was the same age as me.

Their's mother died after giving birth to the youngest one, despite that none of them blamed him for the deaths of the mother. Which was normal.

Thank god, this family is mentally stable than the former YeJun or my biological parents now.

Anyway, this boy name is Han YeJun, and it's only been 2 weeks after he started to live with this family. This means I enter this body right when he is about to move in.

It's was great to know that since I don't need to act like the former YeJun. And, since this family is a distant relative, they don't know how the former YeJun acted.

Plus, I also don't remember any of YeJun's memory, which was gonna be a problem for me if someone were to ask something related to the past.

For now, since we are not close with each other, it's understandable for me to dodge and not answer every time they ask about it. But sooner or later, I don't think I can keep dodging the question.

And considering my age, I doubted anyone would think I remember the past. But still, I just hope no one gonna ask me that question, just to be safe.

But this body that was preparing for me by the system was good.

When I first looked at the mirror, he was not super good-looking or having a heavenly beauty. Because if one to be an Idol, one must also be good looking other than singing or dancing.

And this body has a slightly above average face. I just hope the look will stay or, better, improve as I grow up.

It would be nice if it didn't get to the point which I needed to get a plastic surgery, just for a bonus point to be an idol.

It was a waste of money, I don't know about my past self, but I love myself so much. This look is considered passable and likeable for me, or at least in my standard.

Thanks to the system for transferring my soul into this body at the right age.

Early age when I can start building my skill in dancing and singing. Have a lot of time to build up my reputation from a kid, and I might as well be a kid actor or even model. Could also take care of my imej and appearance.

it's a lot of advantages. And I'm grateful for that.

"YeJun-ya!! come upstairs and eat breakfast!!"

The same voice that woke him up earlier before called him from upstairs with a really loud and clear voice.

"I'm coming, uncle!!"

YeJun replied back as he hurriedly changed his clothes and grabbed his school bag. Before running to the stairs and walking upstairs towards the kitchen.

Upon arriving there, he could see another two people. Sitting at the dining table while eating the breakfast leisurely.

"Hurried up and eat your breakfast, you guys don't want to be late for the first day of school, do you?"

The same voice speaks as he passes a freshly cook omelette to YeJun.

YeJun just nodded while taking his seat and swiftly glanced in the opposite direction where the two other guy could be seen eating their's breakfast without bothering to even greet him.

A boy that was sitting in his opposite direction left as a boy in his teenage years.

He has black hair and brown eyes, an average appearance but with a messy hair that covers his eyes. Wearing his high school uniform tidily.

Kim SeongHun... The oldest son of Kim TaeHyun, and also the older brother of Kim Ari and Kim SeongHo.

And that's kid who was sitting in front of me, was SeongHo...The younger brother and the youngest in the family.

He was at the same age as me, and both of us were going to the same elementary school.

Another good timing, since both of us are going to start attending elementary school this year. I don't have to worry about finding a friend group. It's the start of the year, and we are all 1st gred, and any circle hasn't been formed yet.

Despite having a grown adult mentality, I still need to have group friends so I can avoid becoming an outcast and being a potential victim to bullying.

Though I don't plan on acting like a child, I won't be acting too much like an adult either. So people won't find me different from other kids.

I also won't study too much since I will end up as an idol, but that doesn't mean I will neglect my study. After all, who knows what happened in the future? Maybe I would stop being an idol and start looking for a normal job instead?

Just for a safe backup plan, I will at least pass all my exams. I also plan on taking csat even if I were to debut as an Idol and maybe enter university?

Suddenly, an open door could be heard from upstairs, and a footsteps walking down the stair.

After realizing that person has appeared, Kim TaeHyun immediately greets her.

"Good morning, Ari. Do you sleep well?"

Kim TaeHyun smiled warmly while looking at his only daughter.

"...uhm," Kim Ari answered while nodding her head.
