In a fairly large bedroom, a young teenager slowly woke up from his bed. Noticing the time on his phone it says it's 4:47 AM.
"I don't even need an alarm anymore to wake up at 5 AM."
Quincy said as he slowly reminisced the day he came to this world.
{FLASHBACK 12 YEARS AGO}
[Host has qualified and inherited the 'Super Athlete System'. Initializing...]
[Finished initializing and system is now ready to launch. Requesting permission from host.]
"W-what the hell is going on here?!!!" Quin hysterically yelled as he could not process what exactly is going on. And the voice he heard is spooking him a lot. That is when he slowly remembered what happened.
It was evening when he drove home from work and passed a tunnel he normally passes. But when he got to the end, a bright light hit him abruptly causing him to dodge to the side thinking he may get into a collision with another vehicle which he assumed was a large one due to the large degree of brightness it emitted. Quickly he controlled his car to go left but due to the high speed, it was a disaster as the car fell off the cliff.
Right now I'm in a dark space thinking about the voice he heard. "I don't know if I'm in heaven or in hell but this scene is so familiar to the isekai novels I've read. So I might still have a chance here." Quin said with fingers crossed.
"Okay, launch the 'whatever it is called' system" Quin slightly shouted believing the system might not have heard him.
[Host is reminded that it is called the 'Super Athlete System'.]
"Alright, launch it now."
[Launching in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...]
[The Super Athlete System is now fully accessible to host. Now, system will require the host to give me a name.]
"Hmmm... You sounded feminine so I'll choose a girl's name. Alright, from now on I will call you Lucy." Quin based the name on a Hollywood movie he had seen that ended in the heroine turning into a flashdrive.
[System complies. I, Lucy, will now explain to host the way the system works.]
"You can just call me Quin please."
[Alright Quin, the Super Athlete System is basically like all the systems you may have known from all the web novels you have read. However, there are no quests, inventory, skills, or lucky spins available. I will only provide you with a status panel and a guide to which sport you are choosing on getting the optimum fitness and preparation humanly possible to reach the peak of your sport.]
"Well, that is not bad actually. I thought I could get abilities and all that shit in animes. But I guess it doesn't matter because all I really needed is a chance to relive my life and play in the NBA to be the greatest of all time."
"I could probably also hook up with those famous celebrities watching the game. Oh man if I could fuck Kendall Jenner I would be set for life!" Quin maniacally sidetracked.
"But still, getting to compete with my favorite players is something I've always dreamed of." In his past life, he always watched the NBA and dreamed to be in one. Life just doesn't always go the way you want to. He realized it late and had success being a civil engineer. But now since a chance is in front of him, there's no turning back. He died single and never really got to meet his biological parents. He was an orphan for as far as he remembered and got adopted by an old couple who died 15 years after.
"Lucy, will I be born as an infant or what?"
[Yes, you will start from the beginning and will be named Quincy Cruz still. You will be born into a Parallel world the same as earth but expect a lot of butterfly effects on the way. Also, your past life will be forfeited, meaning there is no Quincy Cruz in existence from your past life so don't bother searching. You can take advantage on the business side with your future knowledge if you want, I have no power in making you not do that but you should tread with caution as the future may not be what you anticipated.]
"Hmm... I'll keep that in mind, but if I'm gonna be an NBA superstar I don't think I will have trouble earning money anyway so it doesn't really matter. I'll just focus on basketball and enjoy life."
[Alright, if the host is ready you will now start your journey.]
"Let's do it, Lucy. I'm ready!"
