Shadow Being System

Check out my other books: Demon Being System and The Neptune Guardian. 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."

As William and the boy approached the beast's massive body on the stage, the world seemed to slow down. William felt an odd calm, surprised that his legs weren't shaking like it was back in the tunnel. He took the knife and felt the weight of the knife in his hand—a finely balanced blade that seemed to promise effortless precision. When he examined the knife's edge, it gleamed with a sharpness that could slice through steel. It felt deadly, a perfect instrument for the job.

Mrs. Chambers glanced between them, her eyes narrowing. "Remember," she warned, "be careful. Damaging the beast's body too much lowers its quality and value, your only job is to carve out the scales."
