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."

Chapter 31

The aftermath of the fight in the cafeteria was chaotic. Students whispered amongst themselves, their voices a mixture of awe and fear, while the faint smell of blood still lingered in the air. The nurses arrived quickly, rushing to tend to the unconscious boys from Billy's group. The red-haired student, Liam, had already left the scene, leaving behind an air of mystery and tension.

William stood up, ready to leave as the nurses carried the injured students out. Just as he turned toward the exit, Sofia's soft voice broke the buzz of conversation.

"Goodbye, William," she said with a smile that could have been mistaken for innocent—but something about it felt off.

William blinked, caught off guard. He hadn't expected her to say anything. He awkwardly nodded, unsure how to respond. "Goodbye," he mumbled, and turned to walk away.
