Shadow Being System

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."

The principal, an imposing man with cold, calculating eyes, leaned back in his chair, fingers drumming against the wood. His face twisted in displeasure. "That boy again," he muttered under his breath, gritting his teeth. "He's interfered with the plan."

The soldier's jaw tensed. "Yes, sir. It seems he… disrupted the situation with the Stark child."

The principal's gaze darkened, eyes narrowing to slits. "And what of the artifact?"
