In an ocean of shadows that were as dark as the night sky without stars, a boy could be seen. He was out of place with his light brown skin that resembled honey and long flowy white hair. Who could it be if not misaki?
The shadowy void moved and splashed around like an ocean in the middle of a storm. Misaki continued to slowly and steadily sink while low pitched whispers voiced around him raspy as if they had smoked since they were born and cold like it was a dead body frozen in a block of solid ice.
Slowly solidifying itself from the shadows of the void formed a barrier around misaki as he descended faster, only for tendrils of a bone gray hue to slowly push the barrier up misaki felt like he couldn't breath and the voices were making it hard to sleep then the force of being under so many shadows.
Shhh...Pop.
"Farewell."
The voices had been saying their goodbyes as they passed on and removed the soul that didn't belong as well as getting rid of the barrier around misaki, who opened his eyes to be treated with the tendrils on his back and a blue screen at the front it was translucent and displaying a notification.

A warm sensation like that of a mother cradling her child to keep it from getting cold was enveloping Misaki as his body started healing within the void.
Soon enough, he was sentient again. His brain and other damaged parts were all healed and back to how they used to be. With one tiny difference, his right eye now had a white star in the center of his pupil along with tiny black dots on the legs of it.
The new star coupled with his already unique appearance gave misaki a chilling aura. So many things weren't normal with how he looked and the star wasn't out of place. It coupled well with his light purple iris and gave it a sense of holiness.
"Farewell huh? All my friends and the orphanage seem to be long gone." Misaki said with a wry smile on his face and voice trembling. Even his heartbeat was beating a lot quicker and louder as if he had run across the entire world without taking a break.
Tears flowed like a river in that space as the void swallowed him whole, leaving not a thing left as he sunk to the bottom of the seemingly endless pit the tendrils that once pushed him up were no longer there.
Splash.
It sounded like someone had fallen into a pool but there was no water, and only a boy lying on what seemed to be a jet black smooth stone floor. In front of him was a table and chair.
********
More than 2 days had passed but misaki had yet to move. It wasn't even till now that he noticed the translucent blue screen that sat in front of him and all the notifications that sat on it.
Working up the courage, Misaki sat up and started reading through the notifications "so I'm alive because of this… system" he thought to himself, realizing it made a lot of sense.
After all, he wasn't strong so he should have died along with everyone else. "Well not much I can do sitting here all day so I might as well get some work done rebuilding the orphanage." Misaki said while a lone tear fell down his cheek.
Wiping the tears away, Misaki walked over to the table and chair before sitting down. He'd seen it but no one else was here so he thought it'd work well for himself.

{The host has decided to take up the mantle and become a god but every god has their own world so hurry up and make one.}
The sudden notification and quest gave misaki a little scare but he soon calmed down and thought about it for a minute. It just didn't sound real. "Create a world? I can't even create a home for myself but you saved my life so I'll try my best." Misaki said, putting on a smile while his eyes started to water, and soon enough the river of tears started to flow onto the table.
Dying the top layer of it a pretty ocean blue that sparkled off the void like diamonds shining in the light.

{The host is quite the crybaby but the crying helped as the host has made the basis of the planet's surface. Over time. life will start to accumulate. Nothing else can be done here for now so enjoy the system. Start by saying menu tata!}
Before misaki had the chance to respond, he was met with the bright lights of a hospital bed while tears ran down his cheeks like rain from a cloud. In front of him was a female that looked to be in her late 20s.
The woman had long wavy blue hair with white spots. It seemed like her hair was a piece of the sky, blissfully elegant and beautiful.
Her eyes were a smooth chestnut brown that was elevated by her pale skin and hourglass figure that made her baby blue dress shine with her ever so aloof gaze.
"I'm Taboo Sashima. Your new caretaker. Feel free to call me Taby." The woman spoke with a voice soft as clouds in the sky, or a bed of cotton candy yet firm like a well built house that guards the family inside throughout all the seasons.
Misaki was confused as to who she was even though the woman had already introduced herself. "I'm sorry but you said my new caretaker. Does that mean I'll be going to a new orphanage?" he asked.
Taby looked at the boy with a distant gaze as she pulled out a tissue and whipped the tears off his face. "Not at all. You're being taken to a military school where you will be adopted into the ranks and learn how to fend for yourself. I suggest you stop crying. After all, you're going to be a soldier in my care and I won't tolerate it as the head general." She explained, retracting the tissue and throwing it away before walking out the room with the tap of her heels growing further and further away.
