Chapter 1 - System?

I opened my eyes and and unfamiliar ceiling greeted me.

In a hurry , I jumped out of "my" bed and looked around, my eyes stopped at a mirror and I Was confused.

I was not the same person I once was, my hair was pitch black, similar to my eyes and despite it not being anything unique, it matched my look greatly and I couldn't help but admire myself…

However, caught up in my thoughts, I failed to hear the ding sound in my head, I only noticed after it the screen appeared in front of me.

[System activated, Gift Package rewarded for successful fusion]

I looked at the screen in front of me and carefully waved my arms around it, however my arms just passed through it.

I wondered if anybody else could see it, however my thoughts were interrupted.

[Accept Gift Package? Yes/No]

I hesitantly clicked yes, but, my hand just phased through again.

I tried again, but this time I imagined myself interacting with the system with my head, yes! It worked, it seems I just have to think to interact with it.

'Yes'

[Rewards: Physical Modifier (5x), Perfect Body, Boxing Mastery, Academics Mastery.]

I looked at the transparent screen in front of me with a daze, how did I get so many rewards from doing nothing?

Is there some way to read the details of these?

With that said a screen appeared in front of me.

[Physical Modifier (5x): Increases all physical properties by 5x]

[Perfect Body: Grants a perfect body, increases physical properties by 2x.]

[Boxing Mastery: Grants mastery over Boxing]

[Academics Mastery: Grants master academic skills, grants memory boost and a comprehension boost]

My eyes shone brightly, and undoubtedly I was excited, but at the same time perplexed.

Where was I and what happened?

The last thing I could remember was getting stabbed from behind.

In my last life I wasn't anything too special, I had a great job and earned more than average, enough to live comfortably with a family, despite not having one.

I don't recall ever making any enemies but apparently I had somehow.

However, if my memory serves me correct I'm pretty sure it was one of my subordinates, most likely greedy for my position.

Anyways, that's in the past now, for now I have to deal with this.

'So I assume I have to accept the rewards one by one?' I thought to myself before trying to accept the Perfect Body.

Immediately after the system processed my request I felt a surge of power suddenly flow through my body, however, surprisingly I did not feel pain nor did the sudden burst of power feel foreign or uncontrollable.

Besides the surge of power my body felt hot and warm, inside and out.

After a second I noticed everything looked a bit smaller.

I looked in the mirror and noticed I grew taller, if I had to guess my height, I would say at least 6,4.

My face became more defined and my previous handsomeness became enhanced, the muscles on my body seemed more defined and stronger.

It seemed that the previous body was already quite decent and the body was slightly above average for a human.

(Testing out 3rd pov)

After basking in the pleasant feeling he looked towards the next reward, "5x strength modifier, would that mean I'd be 10x stronger?"

He smiled at the thought and accepted the reward, he was a fan of strength and in his last life he worked out avidly.

After a moment, the same sensation flooded him, this time much stronger, he could feel the pleasant energy flow throughout his body.

Again after the feeling slowly faded away he looked at his body.

If he had to describe it in the least narcissistic way possible, it was perfect.

He had a clearly defined and clean 8 pack with a thin waist and a wide back, his arms and legs were big, but not horrendously so.

Anyways, after admiring his physique he accepted the next reward which was boxing mastery.

This time his body didn't feel much different, rather a stream of knowledge entered his head.

Slowly he was able to understand it all and felt as if boxing was second nature, he decided to test it out.

As he received boxing mastery he knew what shadow boxing was, so he attempted to do it, however, to his surprise, when he started an actual shadow was summoned.

He didn't know if it could be seen by others, but it would surely be helpful.

The shadow, instantly ran towards him and and launched a jab, the power behind the jab was not weak at all and it was extraordinarily fast, it would put a pro-boxer to shame.

He dodged the punch by weaving to the right, however the next moment another punch was in front of him, however he dodged again but to the left.

This happened again and again but he just bobbed and weaved through the punches, the wind caused by the punches blew past him and finally he decided to strike back.

The shadow launched a right hook so he rolled under and launched an uppercut to the shadows chin.

The shadow flew up and disappeared after coming into contact with the ceiling.

His eyes turned bright and he couldn't hide the massive grin on his face, it was simply too exhilarating to fight!

After calming down for a bit he looked at his last reward, "academics mastery huh?"

He accepted and again a stream of information entered his head, after slowly assimilating it he felt that he could think much clearer and had a lot of knowledge that he did not have before.

With all his rewards accepted he smiled, and again the transparent screen appeared in front of him.

[Memories of the previous body can be transferred (memories will behave like a slideshow, personality will not be affected). Yes/No?]

Obviously he accepted, without the memories of this body how would he live in this world?

Again, a stream of information entered his head, this time it was a bit different since he saw everything that happened in this life to this body.

"So, my name is Raiku Alexander? I live with my little sister and aunt and attend high-school still?"

After taking in all of the memories he did a bit of stretching before dropping down to the floor to workout, it was only about 6 in the morning right now and it was Saturday.

After about an hour of intense workouts and testing his bodies limits, he yawned and was about to head to the bath but was stopped from a sudden intruder.

The door to his room was pushed open and a little girl, somewhat similar to himself, appeared, she seemed to also be in her first year of high-school.

He looked at this girl and said unsurely, "May?"

The girl in question was in a daze at she looked at her brother, his body was defined to the core and her eyes turned dreamy, but hearing his words she awoke, "yes, Raiku?"

"Um, you're the one who came in here," he said whilst scratching the back of his head.

May could only blush, she came in here to wake up Raiku, however she couldn't imagine that her usually slim and weak looking brother had such an amazing body, not to mention the sweat that dropped down his body made him look even better.

"Um, nothing, I just came here to make sure you're up, make sure to come down for breakfast Auntie said!" May said quickly before running away from the door.

Raiku looked at the still open door and walked over to close the door before finally going to take a shower.

Today would be his first day in a new body!
