System Nemesis

Between the howls and wails, the screams and cries of women being raped, and the villagers being eaten and butchered like cattle, there was a middle-aged man who was desperately running away while yelling his lungs out. ''Why.... WHY!!! YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKERS!!!'' His clothes were in tatters and marred in blood, with his body being barely able to function. His state was simply beyond recognition. As for where he was running to... It didn't matter... He just wanted to flee the hellish scene that was unfolding behind him. His remote village, the one he had lived in his entire life, was now a fiery beacon illuminating the night. ''Whyyyyy areeeeeee youuuuuuuuuu runninnnnnnnnnnng awwaaayyyy froooooom usssssssss?'' Terrifying low growls and voices could be perceived behind him, and every time he heard them, his body released adrenaline to try to override its limits, but to no avail as his injuries were just too severe. The humanoid creatures pursuing him were like shadows, barely distinguishable through the cover of the night. Their eyes, akin to black holes, were fixed on their prey as it struggled for its pathetic life. Their faint and sinister giggles kept reverberating through the darkness... *** As blood rushed up his throat and leaked at the corners of his mouth, his sinister appearance aggravated to where he resembled a devil. During his maniacal laugh, his punctured lungs had finally given out, causing his whole body to collapse on the ground and dyeing it a scarlet shade. His mind went blank, while his consciousness left his battered body. *** After what appeared to be a few minutes, he suddenly woke up. He was startled at first, but he soon realized that he had indeed died. Everything around him was black, without an ounce of life in sight. He was basically a spirit floating in the absolute void. ''So this is what happens when you die... You just drift in darkness... That's actually underwhelming. I wonder if I'll just fade away'' When Derrick's thoughts started to drift, a prompt appeared in front of him. [Welcome to System Nemesis, Derrick Tarlin] [Would you like to seek revenge? Yes/No]

Derrick approached the lady with determination, to the point of even scaring her. How was she supposed to react to a buyer looking this resolute?!

Realizing he had come on too strong, Derrick relaxed and apologized.

"I'm sorry Miss… It's just that your colleague mistreated me pretty badly… I understand that my clothes aren't exactly appropriate either, but I swear I have enough to pay"

The saleswoman understood and could only shake her head in disappointment.

"I see you've had the misfortune of meeting Elsa… She's ruthless and only caters to the rich nobles who visit our store. I'm very sorry about how she treated you. My name's Mira and I hope I'll be able to help you today"

She respectfully bowed, and Derrick couldn't be more happy. Such a fine woman working here was a blessing, as he had to maintain good relations to visit the store in the future.

"I would like to see your catalogs on Farming, Mining, Forging and Construction. Would that be possible?"

Mira was startled by the big demand, but happily obliged. She had no reason to doubt the customer's words.

Meanwhile, Elsa was sneering and had the guards on standby, ready to throw Derrick out. Her vanity had truly reached the heavens.

Derrick's fists clenched, and he was barely able to control his emotions.

He felt her gaze filled with contempt on his back, and the only thing he wanted was to slap her.

Mira took a minute before bringing back four thick books that she laid on a counter.

"Are you looking for Standard or Magical tools?"

Derrick pondered.

He had a massive budget, but he'd rather preserve most of it for the Slave Market. However, he wouldn't limit himself needlessly.

"Show me both. However, I only want to see the basics for farming"

Mira complied and began turning the pages of the Farming book. She finally stopped and Derrick began to read the information.
