Gabe slowly began to open his eyes, finding himself in an unfamiliar room.
The last thing he recalled was driving home from work late one night. He had to work overtime once again because of his incapable superior.
The damned idiot messed up paperwork for a client he was in charge of and he forced me to fix it, resulting in him having to stay till late. When Gabe finally finished work it was getting close to 10 at night.
He had gotten in his car and started the thirty minute drive to his home. His last recollection was driving before exhaustion finally overtook him, resulting in him falling asleep on the road.
Gabe sat in this empty room trying to recall anything else but his memory was hazy.
Taking a look around, the room was all white, white walls, floor, ceiling and no door. Strange to be in a room without a door. If there was no door, how did he get in?
"Hello Gabe"
Spinning around Gabe noticed an old man wearing white robes staring at him.
"Who are you? Where am I? What Happened to me?"
Gabe began to fire question after question at the old man.
"I know you must have many questions and they will be answered all in due time" The old man began to say.
"You can call me Alpha and I am what you call, God. As to where you are. You are in a isolated dimension created by me."
All Gabe could do was stare with his mouth open at the man in front of him who claimed to be god.
"Now as to why you are here, you died. Sorry to say but you fell asleep while driving and crashed resulting in your demise."
Alpha paused for a moment before continuing.
"Though your story on earth has come to an end, there is another chapter waiting for you somewhere else. I will send you to a parallel world, similar to earth, except this earth is facing a great threat"
"What can I do? I'm just an average guy with no special skills" Gane began to counter.
"But you are special Gabe, The fact that you came to this dimension speaks for itself."
Alpha made a motion with his hands and a giant screen appeared behind him, with an image of a planet that looks like earth.
"This is Earth. Just like your earth, this earth is inhabited by humans like yourself. However this earth is in a completely different universe."
The image changed to look over a city
"This earth is more advanced than your earth in terms of technology."
The image changed to show an overview of the galaxy.
"With their advancements in technology, humanity has begun to spread out into the galaxy, colonizing dozens of worlds. They have even met other space faring races."
With another wave the image on the screen changed and it showed the same city except it was now destroyed.
"Humanity in this universe faces a great threat, one that is bent on destroying all of human existence from the universe."
"If Humanity is in danger why don't you do something? You are God after all. Don't you have amazing powers that could just obliterated the threat?"
"I did not create the universe, I am simply the care taker of it. The universe has its own rules and one of them prevents me from personally taking control and effecting the mortal plane."
Alpha turned to the screen and with a wave of his hand the image changed. The previous green and blue planets now looked like a desolate world with volcano erupting and seas of lava replacing the vast oceans.
"This is the fate of humanity if something does not change. The world will be destroyed and billions of lives will be lost."
Sadness could be seen on Alphas face as he spoke those words.
Even though he was a god, over the thousands of years he has been watching over humanity, he has grown a fondness for them. Humanities ability to adapt and their creativity never ceases to amaze him.
For that reason, Alpha thought for a long time in how he can help humanity in surviving this crisis. After pondering for a long time, he came up with a solution. While he cannot directly help humanity in its struggles, he can grant special abilities to a human who is not of the same universe and transport him to this universe. That human will then have the skills needed to help humanity fight against the impending doom and thrive.
Looking at the human mortal in front of him, he smiled as he continued to talk.
"I will grant you a special power, one that will allow you to significantly assist humanity in its struggle to survive. I will grant you a system"
In front of his vision a window screen appeared showing the words "Admiral System"
Gabe was dumbfounded. Wasn't this like the webnovels he use to read as a kid? Where the protagonist was given a system that made them extremely overpowered.
When Gabe was younger he would often read these types of webnovels. He had spend many hours reading hundreds of chapters from his favorite novels. At one point he spent over a hundred dollars at once just to buy tokens so he could continue reading more chapters.
Gabe couldn't help but release a chuckle as he recalled those fond memories of his younger self.
"This system will allow you to develop and build up the needed resources to defend humanity and push back the evil entities that is plaguing this universe."
The Room Gabe and Alpha were standing in began to change. The white that covered the entirety of the room changed, and soon it looked like they were floating in space, bellow him was an image of the galaxy.
"Gabe Griffin! I Alpha, overseer of this universe grant you the skills and tools needed to defend humanity. I bid you Farwell and good luck in your new life. I shall be watching over you and looking forward to all you achievements."
And with that Alpha waved his hands and Gabe's vision once again became blurry. It became difficult for him to keep his eyes open and soon sleep took over.
