C1. A New Beginning from a Bitter Ending.

Sanders City, one of the big cities in the Alkaid Kingdom, the residents here mostly work as craftsmen, therefore this city is also called the city of craftsmen.

But no matter how bright a city is, it definitely still has its own dark side.

And the dark side is hidden in a corner of the city, which they call a slum area.

The residents there really don't care about the circumstances and background of their neighbors. And here is also a place where violence, harassment, and death are considered everyday scenes.

In an old hut in a slum area, five youths were surrounding the naked body of a girl.

In the dim light of the hut, the young men looked satisfied and joked freely.

Then the young men looked at the poor girl's body. The beautiful body was now very messy, and male fluids filled her body resulting in a very bad smell.

And the girl is now not moving and also... not breathing.

" Man... I didn't expect to find a girl as charming as this in a bad place like this."

"Yes, it's a shame, this girl breaks down too quickly."

"But I'm still curious about who the people who met us yesterday were, and why was this girl their target?"

" Who knows, but what's clear is that we can enjoy this girl now, right? "

" Kahaha... you're right."

"It's a shame, I can't enjoy it anymore, and I doubt we'll find anyone at this girl's level now."

"I don't know... but, we better go now, or this will be a problem for us if someone finds out."

"What are you afraid of? Here, things like this are commonplace, you know."

"Idiot!! We dont know what eyes are watching this place, you know!! You think the other nobles don't have their eyes on this place?! They might keep quiet if it was just an ordinary case, but if they found out that we caused this, what do you think they would do?! "

"I think you're right"

After that, they immediately moved to leave the place, but one young man was still silent while staring at the girl's body.

" Hei..Let's just leave it alone, this is an area where no one will even care if there are corpses on the side of the road. "

" But ..."

" But what? Listen to this, if someone finds out we are doing this, it won't only be us who are in trouble, but our family too. You understand, right?, and also this is a slum area, corpses are commonplace here. "

" ..... "

" Don't overthink, do you feel sorry now? After you enjoyed it earlier? Don't be a hypocrite! "

" I.... Understand "

" Good, then, let's get out of here, before anyone finds out. "

" OK "

Then the five young men left the house, and the girl's body was left like that.

And finally one day passed, and the dirty fluid on the girl's body had dried and gave off an even more foul smell.

Another day passed and suddenly the girl's body was enveloped in light, the light then slowly began to cleanse the girl's body. A few moments later, the light began to disappear, and the girl's body, which had been very messy and damaged, was now back to normal.

Her body was now clearly visible, her skin, which had been covered in wounds and bruises, was now white and clean again.

Her long black hair, which had been messy and looked like it had been cut by force, was now back to its original length. And it looks softer and shinier than before.

And of course, her lower body which had been treated roughly, had now returned to its original state, and it now looked even more beautiful.

Not long after, the girl slowly opened her eyes, her empty and dead eyes were now starting to regain their light.

"Huh?.. I'm still alive?"

"I thought I was going to die in the Amazon River."

"I never thought there would be a monster like that living there."

"Huh..???"

The girl's hand accidentally touched her chest, and she realized that there was a lump in her chest.

The girl reflexively woke up and immediately checked her body condition.

After she checked her whole body, she finally realized that, it wasn't her body.

After that, the girl closed her eyes as if thinking about something, then opened them again.

"So this is what is called ' being reborn in another world ' huh. But to become a girl, I hope I can still have my manhood even if I become a girl, but.. I don't think it's possible.."

"And it seems like the previous me is already dead."

Still looking a little surprised by the events that only exist in novels, the girl was again surprised by the appearance of a transparent plate.

[Synchronization with the user's soul is Complete. Now you can use the system menu. Please check your status!]

The girl's eyes then widened with the sudden surprise.

"Th-this? System? Really!!? I've really entered a Fantasy world!!"

"If so-...Ugh!!!??"

The girl suddenly grabbed her head hard and looked in pain, the girl tried to scream but no sound came out, and now her face looked very miserable.

The girl groaned in pain for a moment then she collapsed on the floor near her bed.

Another day passed, and the girl finally came to her senses, her facial expression was messed up, and she seemed to have seen the worst nightmare.

After that, the girl tried to stand up, and she immediately looked at the extremely dirty bed with a complicated gaze.

The girl frowned and stared at the place seriously for a while and her face turned gloomy and pitiful.

The girl then glanced at her small and very thin hands, then slowly closed her eyes and sighed.

"What a poor girl, she doesn't even know why it happened to her, and no one wanted to help her when she was dragged here."

"And I don't understand why I came to this world, even after what happened when I was still alive on earth."

The girl is certainly grateful for having a second chance to live, even though it's in a different body and world, but she still feels that there are still many people who might be better than her for that.

"But if this is indeed this girl's request, as a form of my thanks, I will accept it and not make the same mistake as she did before."

The girl knows that she is not the best, but she also knows what is best for herself.

After finishing organizing her thoughts, the girl then tried to open the interface panel of her system.

Liliana looked at her status with a calm and serious face, while synchronizing with the system, she also learned some things about the system and what this world was.

This world was the world of a game from his previous life, she had heard of this game, but she didn't have time to check it out further. And it hasn't even been released yet.

This was a project from the 10 largest companies at that time, and of course the costs for creating this game were not small. This game was created to be as realistic as possible, and you could say this is the second world besides earth.

And it's true, all the creatures here don't look like mere data, but they look truly alive.

And of course they don't have a system like Liliana. Because the game system is only owned by the players.

Therefore, Liliana's system is not complete, in fact it only has 3 features. However, only 2 features can be used forever.

The status menu which can only read, its own status, doesn't even have a level up feature so increasing stats via the system menu is impossible.

Inventory is quite extensive with 55 storage slots, but increasing the number of storage slots is impossible, because there is no system store in the menu.

And finally there is a login system for new users, and that only lasts for a month! After a month, the login reward menu will disappear.

And the reason why the system is not complete is because it is an illegal product.

Liliana didn't understand how or why, but it seemed like the system was forced to merge with her soul, and made some features destroyed.

But the best thing is, the system will not be detected by the game system itself, and players will not be able to see Liliana's status.

Liliana, was still calmly looking at her status, she wasn't sure about the average ability of the world's population, and she also had no way of knowing.

But Liliana is sure of one thing, her physical stats are truly tragic.

But Liliana's mental stat is quite high, even her charm stat is very high. But unfortunately that stat is also what made her suffer this tragic fate.

When she started to remember what she had gone through, Liliana immediately shook her head to erase the bad memories from her memory.

Then Liliana moved her finger and then pressed the skill slot on the interface panel to check her skills.

[Secret message]

[ You can send a short message to someone, without anyone other than the recipient knowing. Maximum use per day is 8 times ]

"The explanation is quite simple, and it's easy to understand, but... is this a chat box?"

When Liliana used this skill, a chat box appeared, with the recipient column still empty, but it proved that the recipient would likely be able to reply to the message.

Liliana was quite satisfied with her skill and then shifted her finger to another skill.

[Linguistics]

[Your understanding of languages ​​is amazing, and this makes it easy for you to learn multiple languages ​​at once]

"This... is Great, because of the limitations of what I can find out from this incomplete system, because this skill will make it easier for me to find information in the future."

After checking her skills, Liliana immediately closed the system menu and headed to the bed to pick up the shabby blanket that was on the floor. The blanket was dirty but at least it was better than being naked or wearing sheets that were stained with the fluids of those young bastards.

After finding out that, Liliana couldn't help it, but annoyance began to appear on her face, because they didn't even prepare a single piece of clothing for her.

After exhaling heavily, Liliana then wrapped the blanket around her body, at least it could cover her body now. After that, Liliana sat on the edge of the bed and called the system again.

Liliana opened the system again because she found something that made her curious.And it's a picture of a black box with a little red exclamation mark above it.

When Liliana pressed the box, with a distinctive clicking sound, the box finally opened and various items were seen jumping out of the box.

[ Congratulations, you have opened the Exclusive User Gift Box!

• You get 10,000 Gold.

• You get a Exclusive Random Skill Book.

• You get a Exclusive Random Familiar Box.

• You get a Random Box of Exclusive Artifact.

• You get 20 AP ]

"Wow, even here, I can't miss the gacha box huh!, but what does exclusive mean?"

[An exclusive item is an item that only has one in the database, so once the item is taken, it cannot be taken again either by the user or by other users]

"Hoho, so what that means is, this is a special item for me, however, if it is lost it will be complicated."

[Exclusive items can only be used by the person who gets them. Unless the owner is no longer there, the item cannot be used or taken by anyone else.]

"I see, so as long as I live, that item will always be mine huh."

After being satisfied with the explanation she received, Liliana then pressed the first box she wanted to open.

The box has a fierce appearance, with a black base color, and has a red gradient that decorates every corner of the box. And the skull decoration makes it even more haunted.

When Liliana pressed it, the eye sockets in the skull decoration began to light up, and the familiar sound of gears starting to be heard. The animation lasted for a few moments, and when the light in his eye sockets began to dim, the sound stopped and the animation of the box opening and releasing something with a Gold light was visible.

Then a skill with a classic paper symbol with a circular top appeared, the frame of the skill was golden, that meant it had a legendary grade.

Liliana couldn't stop her lips from twitching in excitement at the sight.

[Congratulations, you have opened the exclusive skill box.

• Active skill [Secret Note] has been learned]]

Then Liliana immediately checked the skill she had just acquired.

[Secret Note]

[You can see the secrets hidden by the target, this Skill can only be used 3 times a day on the same target. And there is a chance to see the same secret.]

"It's a good skill, but 3 times a day plus the chance to see the same thing, I think my luck factor will be the deciding factor here. But this is still a skill that I need."

"With this, I think my path will be easier in the future."

"Next, I think it's time for Artifact,Right?."

The next box that Liliana will open is a sky blue box on the right and a night sky ara beside it, and black and white wing decorations are next to the box.

Each player will get an artifact box with a different box model and it is very random, but the contents of the box will be related to the box design.

Therefore, it will allow players to have their own uniqueness.

With a familiar sound for a few moments, the box finally opened and the items were released.

[Congratulations, you have opened the exclusive artifact box.

• Item [Seal of Desire] has been obtained! ]]

After that, a symbol in the form of 8 pairs of white and black wings appeared from the system interface and quickly flew towards Liliana. With her physical status like trash, Liliana had no chance to react and could only surrender as things came towards her.

"KUAAAAARGH!!!!"

Liliana screamed very loudly, while her body was enveloped in light, her body now felt like it was on fire, and her back felt like it was being skinned. Due to the excessive pain, Liliana finally collapsed and fainted again.

Three hours passed and finally Liliana woke up.

" Ugh... I think I fainted again huh, but it really hurt a lot, but now where is that artifact? "

Liliana then circled the entire room, and finally arrived in front of a dirty mirror in the corner of the room, and finally she understood where the artifact was.

"A tattoo huh? And it's also very big to cover my entire back, so this is the reason why it hurts so much!!"

A tattoo depicting White wings and Black wings is engraved on the skin of Liliana's back.

This artifact has a function, that is, as long as there is enough mana, Liliana can manifest what she desires to become a temporary reality.

"Well, from the description, this looks very promising, but let's try it first."

Liliana then channeled her mana into the tattoo on her back while thinking about something.

And soon a light immediately enveloped Liliana, and after the light disappeared, a pair of wings could now be seen growing on her back.

"I think with my current mana, I can only use this artifact to this level."

[Seal of Desire]It has a total of 8 slots that can be used to realize the user's imagination. And Liliana uses 2 slots to create a pair of wings on her back.

It was an amazing artifact, but it required quite a high mana intake as well, and that meant Liliana couldn't maintain her wings for more than a minute at the moment.

And the wings immediately disappeared and a scattering of imaginary wing feathers scattered throughout the room.

Disappointment appeared on Liliana's beautiful face when her wings disappeared, but she couldn't do anything.

With her face still gloomy, Liliana adjusted the system's interface panel then pointed her finger at the next box.

The box looks cute, white with Stars decorated on it. But Liliana knew that the contents weren't that cute.

[ Congratulations, you have opened the exclusive legendary familiar box.

• Familiar [ Gemini the Twins Stars ] has joined your family ]

Two small, formless dolls appeared out of thin air, the dolls were only the size of Liliana's fist now.

But then, the two dolls began to change shape into figures that were very similar to Liliana, but unfortunately they were smaller.

Liliana was very surprised by the sudden event, and could only remain silent.

However, the silent atmosphere was soon shattered by a cute voice that suddenly appeared.

" Mama!! "

" Huh?? Mama? "

"Yes, Mama, it's Mama!!"

The two Liliana mini figures enthusiastically said "Mama" and pointed at Liliana happily.

Liliana felt strange when she was called mama, when she still remembered her previous life as a man.

But..

Liliana, who immediately understood, started smiling and hugged them both.

"My children are very kind and cute, huh"

"Hehe, of course, we're Mama's daughters!!"

Liliana could only hug them silently. Family, that is a word that Liliana really misses, because she lost it a long time ago in her previous life.

When Liliana was still living as a man named Raon, she lost her loved ones when she was very young, and at that time, she started traveling around the world.

And now, Liliana got the new family she so desperately sought in her previous life, and she didn't want to lose someone she considered family again in this life.

Liliana's eyes shone and she was determined to do whatever it took to eliminate anything that threatened her family in the future.

After a few moments of hugging the twins, Liliana then told them to return to the system, Liliana actually didn't have the heart to put them in the system. But Liliana knew that right now, the safest place for them was in the system room, and she didn't want them to go out dressed like that.

So, with a heavy heart, Liliana let her daughter go to the system room. And after seeing her daughter disappear into thin air, Liliana began to prepare herself to leave the room.

And after she checked her status once again, she started to walk away from the house. With feelings of anxiety and curiosity, Liliana finally came out and started her second life.
