"Yes I will take extra care not to miss any meals and yes I will enjoy myself..... ok bye now"
'Mother does not rest for even a minute when any of her children are out of her sight no matter how old we get.'
'Now let's get going!!'
Ram had finally convinced his parents to send him to Greece for a holiday after almost a year of good scores in exams.
so now here he was in Greece to enjoy the fruits of his labor but fate's a bitch ain't it.
he had just gotten out of the airport and was waiting for a taxi when a little girl runs right in front of the famous truck-Kun.{cliche right!}
Looking at the girl of similar age to his little sister Ram's leg moved reflexively, he never was too kind yet as any honorable man he placed his family at the top yet he decided to run and push the little girl.
BAM!!!!
The last thought in his mind was just a simple apology to his family for failing to keep the promise he made to them.
After what felt like a few minutes Ram opens his eyes to find himself in a gazebo on the cliff of a mountain above the clouds.
oddly he felt very calm sitting on the floor, so calm that he failed to notice the buffed man with a long white beard and hair flowing to his shoulder, this extremely old being was Zeus the Greek god of sky, lightning & thunder, kingship, honor, and justice.
"ahem"
Zeus coughs to get the attention of the young man laying on the floor of his gazebo
"Hello young man and welcome to the platform of judgment, here we shall judge what to do with you"
he says while keeping a beaming smile on his face almost as if he was ecstatic seeing Ram here
Ram looks up at the old man and feels surprised since he could recognize the huge man as Zeus.
"G..GREETINGS LORD ZEUS!"
Ram almost screams while bowing in respect. He understood that what happened to him was just like the web novels but reading about a situation and being in it is very very different so he was now sweating out his ass while bowing in front of a literal God.
"Calm down child, you are a fairly pure soul so you are not going to hell, honestly speaking you should not even be here but instead should have gone straight to the reincarnation cycle and be born into a rich family for an easy life."
Zeus speaks calmly while gesturing for Ram to sit on a seat in front of him and then sits down himself.
" Instead of going to a world without magic and such, how would you like to go to a world of magic, cultivation, ninja arts, and such."
This came out so smoothly from his mouth that Ram instinctively compared it to a sales pitch of a well-experienced salesman.
"Amm sir, before anything could you tell me about what happened in my world after my death is my family ok, is the little girl ok?"
"HAHAHA boy you really are kind, yes the little girl is ok and as for your family.... they will be ok"
Zeus gives a sympathetic smile to Ram.
Ram sighs in relief and closes his eyes remembering the faces of his family, apologizing to them in his heart.
Ram takes a deep breath and composes himself, then looks at the man who is revered as a god on his planet.
'ok now calmly think Ram while it may seem all cool and powerful seeing those characters destroy their enemies but it is equally if not more deadly.....I am more likely to die a dog's death there but I might actually make it big but....but.....but'
while Ram was having this overthinking session in his mind Zeus had a scheme cooking up in that crafty mind of his.
"He will probably ask for a boon of some kind, most probably a system but if I give him that he might actually make it big and he is not under my mythology so no gain for me but if I ..."
after nearly 10 minutes Ram looks at Zeus with determination in his eyes.
"Sir, I have made up my mind and I will go to the world with magic but will I get a system or some kind of cheat ability?"
Zeus snaps his fingers and a system screen pops out in front of Ram. On the screen is the list of various systems on one side and abilities on the other.
"you can either choose a system or 5 abilities, know that the increase in the number of abilities is proportional to the difficulty of the world you will be sent to and the low-level system is equal to 5 abilities while a high-level"
Ram looks at the list of systems since he disregarded the abilities from the beginning.
on the list tier 1 to tier 3 were all trash systems in comparison to the higher two tiers and since even tier 1 is equal to 5 abilities let's just go all in with tier 5 systems.
after careful overthinking, for half an hour he finally came to decision. Even Zeus was questioning if he selected the right person but it didn't matter much to him.
"Sir, I will select the everyday system."
"Thank you for choosing the everyday system"
suddenly a cliche blue system screen pops up and a mechanical female voice reads out the description of the system straight into Ram's mind freaking him out
"the 'everyday system' is a system that gives small power boosts every day and big boosts every year and even bigger boosts every 10 then 100 and so on. The boost itself depends on the number of quests completed that day."
"The quests also have ranks just like the systems, from tier 1 to 5 where tier 1 is the lowest and 5 is the highest. There will be optional objectives as well as hidden objectives and the efficiency/percentage of the completion of these objectives will decide any additional benefits from the said quests"
"As a baseline, if you want to obtain the minimum boost of the day you need to complete at least 5 tier-one quests in a day without fulfilling any addition objectives and there is no upper/maximum limit to the powerup you can obtain"
"the other function will be explained as they are unlocked. Once again thank you for choosing the 'everyday system'."
Ram was more excited than baffled after hearing the system's voice since this is the dream of many young readers of this age.
"Alright then, you can familiarize yourself with your system after you reach the world you will be reincarnated into a very dangerous yet opportunity-filled world. GOOD LUCK YOUNG MAN!"
Zeus picks him up and throws him into a portal almost as if in a hurry. While being thrown Ram could only catch a glimpse of a dark brown man walking through another portal and then he loses consciousness."
