Chereads / System, I beg of you, let me die! / Chapter 4 - As a system, you should have an ace up your sleeve.

Chapter 4 - As a system, you should have an ace up your sleeve.

When one ascends from the lower realm, one does not simply appear in a designated location.

Instead, the cycle life of life begins anew.

In your new life, one forgets all of his past and begins his journey again.

It is only in the high realm that you exit the cycle of life and regain all your previous abilities and knowledge.

However, there is some evidence about the famous legend.

Some humans did retain their memories when they ascended.

- Terasec White, [Mysterious Events in the middle realm]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reisa is one of the most populated countries on the entire eastern continent.

Naturally, it means that there are many businesses there.

Furthermore, the prices were affordable.

It is only natural then that the place became a popular tourist attraction.

However, what made the country so famous in the first place is none other than the [Null] Group.

According to legend, demons and angels are lurking in every corner, and humans are constantly in danger.

The [Null] Group is an international effort to protect humans against the supernatural.

There are many branches of the group all around the globe.

Of course, the main branch is at Reisa.

If a human can successfully join the [Null] Group, he would be able to acquire strength and wealth beyond most human imagination.

That is why nowadays, there are many schools whose entire purpose is to teach the next generation of fighters.

Of course, because [Null] itself supported the schools, the standards increased to nearly impossibly high values.

They are also known as [Null] Schools.

Of course, it is not to say that most schools don't teach about the supernatural.

Every school also teaches magic and basic self-defense against them.

However, the difference between their functional capability is immense.

The difference is like the difference between a human baby and a tyrannosaurus-rex.

Somewhere, in a local household near Zig, the capital of Reisa.

A female child was sitting on a bed, and beside her was a backpack.

Her hair was organized into a neat ponytail by her mother.

You could see on her face that she was nervous.

'Today is the day!'

Mia managed to get accepted into the [Null] school that was ranked third in the world, Vocus.

She could even ignore the other two schools as they only accept children from famous families, but she did not want to become even more nervous.

Mia sat down in her room while thinking about the interactions at school.

"Mia, wake up your brother!"

A loud voice from the kitchen downstairs interrupted her thoughts.

Mia almost answered back to her mother, but only a sigh came out.

"OK!"

Putting on her slippers, she opened the door quickly.

After walking through the short hallway, she reached her destination.

On the wooden door is a piece of paper.

"Closed?!"

Mia felt herself getting mad.

She quickly reached for the door handle.

The door didn't make a sound as it opened.

As Mia entered the room, a familiar sight greeted her.

Sprawled out on the bed was a small child.

"Wake up... Zed!" Mia quickly pulled his blanket towards her.

After that, she knew he was about to wake up, so she left.

Zed slowly rolled out of bed.

He slowly walked to the bathroom and put water on his hair.

After a few seconds, he felt that it was good enough.

'Messy hairstyle is also good.'

He quickly put on his shoes and headed out to the door.

"Dad, I am heading out!"

Zed didn't wait for an answer and opened the door.

Waiting for him outside inside the car was his mom and sister.

Entering the car from the right side to the backseat, he saw his newly bought bag.

"About time, I swear if we get there late..."

Mia was about to go on a rant, but then she recognized his current state.

'He is not listening!'

She was correct.

Zed stopped listening to her the instant she opened her mouth.

While on the way, a familiar screen appeared in front of Zed.

Zed has already been in this world for six years.

He was about to win but then stepped into a hole that appeared out of nowhere.

If the system's situation was any better, he was about to murder a town or two.

'At the very least, the system got screwed somehow.'

Seeing how there were so many locked abilities, he felt pretty good.

Zed wanted to complain about how [Immunity to Self-Harm] and [Self Defence] made it impossible to commit suicide.

However, he was optimistic about his chances.

After all, all he needs to do is skip the magic classes, and eventually, he will meet a devil or two.

If Zed does not learn any skills like magic cultivation, nothing can make him stronger.

'The system most of used all of his abilities. Now luck is the main factor.'

Zed felt that he had to thank his sister.

The reason why he will attend the same school is because of her.

Of course, he will not be a full-fledged student that learns everything like her, but that is perfect for him.

One might ask, why go to a school?

Well, it is either that or walking around the country, waiting for an unbearable danger.

Because there is surveillance all around him, he would get caught anyway.

How did Zed know it? Well, he was also surprised when someone caught him in the act.

It was around eight and ten minutes in the morning when they reached the entrance to the school.

Mia looked at her hand watch.

'Five minutes!'

A card appeared in Mia's right hand.

She put it on the electronic reader near the main gate.

The gate instantly opened.

"Remember, building five hundred, room fifteen!"

"I'll see you after school!" Mia exclaimed before running away towards one of the buildings.

Zed shook his head.

For a moment, Zed considered whether he should go to the class or not.

After all, there is a chance that they will learn magic there.

But, it was only the first day.

Furthermore, there is always the chance that the system is planning something.

'At the very least, I need to learn about my potential friends and enemies.'

Of course, his friends must be qualified villains.

‎‎

Building five hundred is a mysterious construction.

A few years ago, Vocus announced that siblings of similar age to the qualified student are also eligible to join the academy.

Of course, Zed's current family was happy to hear the news. After all, they can now send their lazy son to a good establishment.

Some people were rightly suspicious. As one of the most sought-after schools, a deal like that is too good to be true.

It didn't take long before Vocus sent out a clarification.

The students that were going to join will participate in a different curriculum.

When the parents read this, they were confused.

Where are the details about the difference?

In the end, parents had to either trust the establishment or enter a different school.

When Zed entered the building, he found it was practically empty.

Zed realized that there was no noise from the classes.

As he walked through the hallway, his steps were creating an echo.

'Is it silent because of magic?'

Zed was confused for a little while.

It didn't take long before he reached his goal.

In front of him was a sliding door. Near the door, there was a small sign.

"15" Was written on it in bold letters.

Zed quickly slid the door open.

"???"
