Chapter 1 - New Life and System

I died. I saved a girl who was on the verge of getting hit by a speeding truck, but ended up ending my own life after being the one who tanked the hit.

"Argh!! My head!" I held my head as I felt severe and excruciating pain and slowly opened my eyes. I woke up in a dark place, still in my school uniform. I thought it was hell at first. I've then observed my surrounding. This 'hell' had numerous gigantic statues and tombs surrounding me. The statues looked like humanoid beings holding weapons in their hands. The tombs however, were full of inscription that I don't understand att all. It seems like an ancient text that was buried in history. I looked back at the place where I woke up, it seems like I was lying on top of a coffin. Great, this means I'm dead and currently on hell now. But suddenly, a voice came from the inside of my head. It sounded stoic and flat, as if it is a robot.

[Welcome to the world of Incursio, host Grey Carlsmen. You are a lucky soul who was chosen by a god to transmigate to this world. Here, your worldly fantasies that you had from previous life exists. Magic, beast, otherworldly races, dungeons and gods exist and live in this world. You are a Soul Warrior, a warrior who leads the soul to fight alongside you against your enemies on the way. The system will be guiding you towards glory and fame. ]

As I carefully digesting the information I've obtained, my face lit up.

"Woah!! I-I've got a system... and Soul Warrior? Is that my profession? Ahh yes, Incursio? New world? I am transmigated here? What the hell is going on? Why the system said transmigated instead of reincarnated? Didn't I died after I got hit by the truck?"

It was too much to handle for the moment. I decided to calm down as I take a deep breath and exhaled. Examining my surrounding, I saw a gigantic door that seems to be an exit.

"Well, I can find out that later. I need to get out of here first." I've pushed the door, revealing ray of sunlight as it washed my face. I can finally see the light again.

"Shit..this feels good. It is warm here." I said as I once again eyed on my surrounding. I can see lots of mountain peaks and very thick forest around me. It seems that I'm currently on a high place. Then I see weird looking creatures, some of the are like foxes but are as big as a hippo, then I saw a flying creature with two pair of wings soaring high at the sky. It is enormous.

I finally remembered about the system. Then I instinctively said "System." A golden panel appeared in front of me.

============================================

I was baffled for a moment. There was four menu's that are locked. Maybe it will unlock once I get stronger. I paused for a moment, then clicked on the 'Host' menu.

============================================

"Woah, this system knows everything about me. it even pinpoints my talents. It seems like I was quite talented in swordsmanship as well." I was amused,then I moved to the stats section.

============================================

*STATS*

AGI: 6

DEX: 8

INT: 7

SP: 0

============================================

"It seems that my level and stats are low, very low. But my hp is quite high. What does 'KC' and 'SP' means?"

[KC stands for kill count, referring to how many lives you kill. It can be accumulated by killing people, beasts, spirits,demons or gods. SP stands for soul point. Due to your ability, you will have the power to absorb soul and become stronger. One soul point equals to one kill count. But, you can also absorb the already dead souls and grant you power.]

The system explained. "I get it. Now, let's check my abilities." My face tensed as the moment of truth will arrive. I was eagerly waiting to see what exactly is the ability of a Soul Warrior although I already get the gist of it.

============================================

*ABILITIES*

1. Soul Warrior (Evolveable)

As a soul warrior, you can harvest souls from the living and the dead. The souls can be converted into a form of strength, whether it is physical prowess or magical abilities as well as defensive capabilities. You would also received some skills in order to assist you during your process of harvesting soul.

2. ????? (?)

LOCKED (UNAVAILABLE)

============================================

"My abilities are quite insane,and there are skills that are upgradable. But I guess the rank would stil Ber the same. As far as what I could tell, the system is quite complete. I can't wait to explore it's other function once I got stronger. It seems like I can have two abilities at best." I took a moment of silence to calm myself. I am now truly been in a new world. And there seems to be no way back home. I looked at my own body. I was taller than my previous live, going to 188 cm from 177. It was huge difference, and my body feels light as feather as well as flexible. It is a lot better than my previous life, I was skinny and had no muscle at all. This body was like a blessing to me. I shifted my focus on my survivability, I need to seek people,shelter and food. This thick forest are not a suitable place to say as I had nothing aside from myself.

"I need to find people. I hope that they use the same language as me." I've slowly descend down the hill, admiring the beautiful scenery each step I took. The sky was bright and the sun was still above my head. So I wouldn't have to worry about my sight. And I'm currently hungry and thirsty, and that is why I'm looking for any human settlements or towns or cities.

"Let's do this." I've clenched my fist and hardened my resolve. I don't know what destiny has in store for me. But I am prepared to face anything. I slowly walked down the hill, starting my long, endless journey.

(A/N: How is the first chapter? Please let me know in the comments. I was just writing this chapter to introduce our MC to you. I will start to build up the world slowly starting from the next chapter. I hope you would stay tuned for more.)
