I am back
Lucas appeared back in his room, the one that is inbedded in his memory. Opening his eyes, Lucas found himself in the familliar room he once used in his teenage years.
His room could be described as a piece of art that not even the world's best hotel rooms or mansions could compare to, with every ornament and furniture decorated in diamonds and other jewels.
The first thing that Lucas noticed was that both his arms and legs were intact, the sensations of which he lost during the fight with Vincent was back. Lucas Sylvester who died at the age of 30 regressed back in time and appeared back in his younger body.
Looking at a mirror in his room, he could see the reflection of his younger self. The smooth and silky white hair which perfectly highlight his handsome face. When he was younger, Lucas was once called the star of high society as his looks could attract almost everyone.
"AHAHAHAHAHHAHA" Lucas bursed into laughter as he could not believe that he truly turned back time and this sudden outburst caught the attention of his personal maid, Ruby who quickly made her way into his room
"Whats wrong young master?" Ruby muttered, her face full of concern
Lucas observed her expression and a slight smile appeared on his face.
"Nothing is wrong Ruby, you may leave and don't disturb me until dinner arrives" Lucas ordered
"As you wish young master" Ruby replied as she left Lucas alone in his room.
Watching his maid closed the door of his room, Lucas muttered "I am truly back huh.."
Many thoughts appeared on his mind as he sat in his bed, and although he wanted to jump out of bed and immediately rush to meet his family and loved ones again, he still needed some time to process the whole situation he is in right now.
As Lucas was collecting his emotions and thoughts, a bright light in a form of a screen appeared in front of him.
Ding*
[The system welcomes the host]
Surprised looking at the screen, Lucas answered "What are you and am I truly back in time?"
[The host is chosen by a higher being and was sent back in time, and as for myself, I am merely a guide in which that higher being attach to you]
Hearing the system words, Lucas smiled as he realized once again that he is truly back to the past.
"What am I supposed to do now? I am pretty sure that the higher being would not send me here without any purpose" Lucas questioned in a chilly toned as he did not want to believe that the higher being simply sent him back in time due to sympathy
[I apologize, but as of now, I am unable to answer the host's question. However, the higher being mentioned that the host could do anything he liked for now and won't interfere in the host's decision]
"Then what are you here for?"
[The only reason for me to be here is to assist the host in completing his goal, whatever that may be]
[The host could think of me as an elder guiding your way to your goal. Although you are recommended to follow my words, the final decisions will be yours]
[However, you should remember that if you led your life the same way you did before, the results won't change and you will die]
[Lastly, if you decide to follow my words, then a reward should be awarded to you]
"So, I could do anything I want but I will get rewarded if I follow your words? Are you being serious right now?" Lucas scoffed at the system words
[The host is correct. While we are still in this topic, I will give you your first option]
--------------------------
<< Main Quest Issued >>
Objective: Become a hero that is aknowledged by the whole world
Time limit: None
Reward: Random Trait(Rank: SS Grade)
Penalty: None
<< Will you accept the quest? >>
---------------------------
"HAhAHHA, is this what you mean by recommending options to me?" Lucas laughed as he found the quest itself funny as Lucas was once the world's most evil villain and the one thing that he hates the most are those hyprocritical heroes
[Yes, in order for the host to change the future, it is wiser for the host to become a hero]
However, Lucas did not immediately rejects the quest as the reward for the quest is quite amazing even for his previous self.
Trait, or what ordinary people call superpowers are what makes the world strongest heroes and villains become what they are today. In this world, there are all kind of traits, and all traits are graded from F-SSS.
Even in his previous life, Lucas only had one SS rank trait and that trait helped him became one of the strongest people in the world.
Lucas pondered at the system words for a couple of second and eventually rejected the quest
"I will never become one of those bastards"
<< Main Quest Rejected >>
[The system aknowledges the host's decision, but I warn the host that your choice will be full of blood]
"I was the one that is called the most evil and is the most hated, a little blood will not be a problem for me" Lucas muttered
-------------
After collecting his thoughts and asking some questions to the system, Lucas found out that the system has many other uses. For example, he could simply say the word 'status' and he will be able to see his current strenght.

-------------------------
Lucas belongs to the Sylvester family, which was one of the most powerful and rich family in the whole world. There is nothing in this world that he could not get, and his parents support him in anything he did.
"Arghh, if only my parents are a little more strict with me" Lucas spoke as he saw that he was still unranked and his mana was still locked. In his previous life, Lucas only awaken his mana at 15 years old while the childrens from other powerful families usually awakened at 12.
"However, this time will be completely different." Lucas swore to himself as he will definitely awaken his mana core faster as he would need to be way stronger than his previous self to get his revenge.
