Gallop..Gallop..Gallop..On a path filled with snow, a double-horse carriage was being escorted by guards, bearing a blue flag with a purple sword engraved in it, the flag of Zimmersons. At the same time...
'Looks like the journey will take quite some time. But holy moly, this 3rd PoV skill is too awesome, no mana usage. Speaking of mana, I expected this world to be having mana and all that fantasy stuff, but I never expected my mom to be a mage. And this damn system doesn't know a shit about magic and all' [Host, you are still in uterus, and I am a Gaming God system, use your br- 'I get it, I get it, I understand, I just hoped for info dump nothing more. Sigh...'
'Anyways, from first impression, my parents seemed quite close, reminds me of my previous parents.....they were also close to each other like my current ones. It hurts man.. quite a lot remembering them. Maybe I should have spent more time with them, I should have told them I always loved them, only if it wasn't for that damn accident, th-that damn.. DAMMIT...UAGGHHHH'. [Emotional imbalance detected, decreasing adrenaline rush. Being angry in the current body of host can lead to permanent damage, host is required to born first in order to handle emotional balance.]
"Huh, did my baby move? But why do think I heard a sound? Is my baby okay? Why I am I feeling weary?" sensing sudden movement and vibration from the baby inside her, Sara was worried. She started singing a lullaby, and after sensing that baby became relaxed, she stopped and slept in the moving carriage.
'Thanks system, and thanks mom. I know you can't hear me, and I see from the 3rd PoV that you are worried, but don't worry, I will do my best to protect this family, it's the only own I have now anyway. Anyone trying to harm my family will be eliminated. I can finally be myself now, no more controlling myself '. Sanu always had one major problem in his whole life, his temper. He was emotionally weak, easily trusting others, and full of vengeance, in which he even eliminated or should one say, slaughtered many of his bullies. No one ever knows why the culprit was never found, he himself expected to himself to be caught. But maybe due to lack if evidence, or maybe without witnesses? But we got anyway everytime. He stopped such things later on, since he could never take chances with his life, as much as he wanted revenge and couldn't control temper, he was in a civilized world, he wanted to live comfortably, in his home. Being easily attachable, full of rage, he needed some affection. Now he had chance to get one, a family, and a world where power rules, and an unimaginable power called System. What monstrosity will be unleashed, only time will tell.
'Thanks again system but I want to know, why am I being too moody? I wasn't a single bit like this before dying. I get it that I am excited and somehow expectant of future journey, but this doesn't explain this edgelord and angry personality of my youth.' [Host, you are too dense. You are currently an infant to be, so of course you are having a new, young and energetic body with a developing brain. You only carried memories, but feeling depends on both mind and body, where your body, blood and hormones all are new]
'Ok, Ok. Now that all side things are over, let's get onto main dish, the Gaming stuff, you said that I have to level up to unlock the characters, buildings and other stuff right?' [Yes, Host]. 'Show me the levelling track'
*Ding*
[Current level of Host - 0

'I have a question from the champions part, what do you mean by champions & what's the difference between me getting a champion skill and any of my subordinate becoming a champion? shouldn't I become a champion too, won't I be too weak with only a skill? And what's with this copy function, the stats will be mine or my subordinate's?'
[Champions signifies playable characters you have played as, whether in MOBA's or RPG's, for e.g Jin Kazama (Tekken), Scorpion (Mortal Combat), Mercy (Overwatch), Geralt (The Witcher), Agent 47 (Hitman) etc. By unlocking the champions skills of Host's choice and not the entire Champion, Host can customise himself, unlike becoming a Champion where the host has fixed set of skills. Host will get skill selection cards through the rewards track, which will ensure host's growth. Copy function will be activated as an Active skill when Host impartes a Champion to a loyal subordinate. It can be actived for an hour per week with the stats of the subordinate, which ensures that Host won't spam it and will continue to work on himself. Additional info - the Champion skills will be locked if subordinate's loyalty falls below 70%, and will be taken back if it falls below 50%]
'And the lvl 1 reward, barbarian minions, barbarians must be from Clash of Clans, but what does minions signify? Are they one time summons or something else?' [Barbarians are summons which will spawn from the building 'Barbarian hut' after spending some specific resources. They are living beings too and will require to eat and thrive. You will get a free *Summon 10 Barbarians* card with the Barbarian hut]
'Hooo quite cool, I should create a massive army and conquer them all. Well, as for myself, I should become Kratos with Master Yi Ult? maybe Medic with Reape- Wait, I think we arrived at Rime town. It looks quite populated for a town in such a cold region. Let's see what my mother's side family is like. I hope maybe a cousin sibling should be there, otherwise it will get too lonely.'
Soon the carriage of Baronesse escorted by the guards reached the town gate. The gate was completely wooden, with a height of 5 meters. Guarding it were 2 guards wearing leather armours covered with woollen clothes. Seeing the escort, they woke up from daze, and upon closer inspection, they saw the flag of Zimmerson Barony being hoisted. Upon seeing it, their lazy attitude vanished, replaced by enthusiasm and smiles. Why shouldn't they be happy, their lady Sara's family lived in this small town, making each of the citizen proud and boastful whenever they met any tourists, merchants or if they went to any other town of Barony for business. Not that there were any visitors in these freezing lands, specially not in winters, and those who went for business settled there only. Anyways, since Sara grew among them, they always treated her with full devotion and loyalty.
Gallop..Gallop..Gallop.. Screechhhh..
""WE GREET AND WELCOME LADY SARA!!""
Hearing such loud announcement, people started coming out of their homes, even in such a cold evening. Seeing their usual antics, Sara looked out of her carriage and teased the older guard "Hello uncle John, it's nice to see you again. You are still looking quite healthy at this age". Hearing this, many of the onlookers giggled in amusement, one of them chimed in "Our uncle John is gulping food day and night, what can we even do, when even his wife is tired of his antics". Everyone burst into laughter, and even in such a cold weather, the atmosphere turned warm.
After lighting the mood, Sara told them her reason for coming, and the locals walked behind to her parents' house which was in the middle of the town, after which they went back to their home. After she went in, she saw her father, who somehow scrambled up from the chair he was sitting on, and embraced her in a hug with his shaking hands and spoke with tears in his eyes "Sara, my child, you are back!!". "Yes father, I am here!!" not being able to hold her tears back, she replied. Both father and daughter hugged each other for 2 minutes, after which, both her sisters arrived, which immediately became a family reunion, after which they started chatting together.
20 miles east from the Rime town, there was a steep slope, which one could reach by crossing the vast jungle which was home to snow wolves and goblins, and at the end of slope was the beginning of an ocean, a vast ocean.
Currently, the entire slope was dyed red, entrails and torn body parts were littered all over the snow. "Howllllll....Howlllll...." One could even hear a wolf howling, which stood at the edge of the cliff. But if one could listen closely, they could differentiate that it was not howling in excitement of catching a prey or ordering it's pack. But it was a pain filled howl, which longed for it's packmates which were now nothing more than carcasses and meat, scattered everywhere. The 2 metre Alpha, with it's eye filled with grief but determined stood in a standoff against the assailants, which had cornered it to the edge of the cliff. He saw how his pack was massacred, with each of them dying with a single slash of those blades. He was bleeding and bruised all over, with it's left eye gone, and front limbs somehow holding up despite his bones being visible through the wounds. It's white fur coat dyed red with his own blood, overlooking all those who dared to trespass his domain. The pride of the Alpha was still visible in his countenance, despite being on his last breath. He knew he can't kill them anyway, so to preserve his remaining pride, he took a bold decision. As soon as all of them slashed at him, the Alpha, applying all the energy on its legs jumped off the cliff. His body crashed on a boulder hundreds of meters below, and his body was swept away by the tides, deep into the ocean.
