Chapter 1 - The New Beginning

In a dark alley, there were constant loud thud noises. If you looked closely, you could see a middle-aged man lying on the floor while getting beat up by a bunch of hoodlums. His eyes were absent from the pain as if death was staring him in the face, and he could feel his consciousness fading away.

"So this is how I die, huh? If I had a second chance in life, I would strive to be the strongest, so I wouldn't have to live like a subhuman. But, there is no such thing as 'if'."

He breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes with a slight smile on his face.

Click!click!click!click!

He abruptly opened his eyes, hearing those noises and tried to observe his surrounding, but he couldn't look beyond 5 cm. So, he looked at himself, only to be shocked beyond words.

His human legs were nowhere to be seen, only to be replaced by six brown exoskeleton legs made up of a material called chitin. He also could see two antennas hanging from the side of his head.

"Where the hell am I?, What am I? And How am I still alive?"

He tried to shout, but no noise could come out of his mouth. While in confusion, he tried to run, only to collide with other ants. He continued running and colliding for hours until he got exhausted and fell asleep.

The next day he woke up and tried to remain calm since being anxious would be of no help in the situation.

All the running had made him hungry, and hunting was the only way to obtain food. So, tried to communicate with other ants by rubbing his jaws together. After knowing which group was going for the hunt, he joined them.

A group of ants went in a line in search of food, and after 30 minutes they found a small lizard. After surrounding it, they managed to kill it after 15 minutes, and suddenly he heard a sound in his head.

Ding! Ding!

[Congratulation to the host for killing Yellow Lizard!

You have obtained 1 Evolution point (Evo)!

You can now access your status!

You can also access the level 1 Evo shop!

You can also sell the corpse for Evo points! ]

"What is a system?"

While dazed, he unknowingly asked

"A system is a tool designed to help with the growth of the host."

"That's it?"

"You do not have enough authority to know further information, please upgrade the level of the system to gain more authority."

He had never heard of anything called a system in his previous life. So, he asked the system again.

"How do I upgrade your level system?"

"You can open status and there will be information about it."

While annoyed at the direct and monotone answers, he could do nothing but comply.

"Status open."

The host can transfer Evo points from the previous reincarnation to the next. It is advised the host takes this seriously and survives as long as possible. ]

"System what happens when you die after 3rd reincarnation?"

"You can guess…."

" *—*. "

"Why would you provide such a function if you can only use it three damn times?" He was angry at the system.

He finally had hope, but it turned out to be such a scam.

"System can barely tolerate cause and effect for three reincarnations, you can forget about more than that. Try to value your life more, since this is the second chance that you desired so much."

"Fine." He replied reluctantly.

"Is it possible to reincarnate as a human?"

"Yes, it is possible to reincarnate as a human, but the reincarnation chances are random."

"Well, no point in overthinking, system open shop"

"Alright, I can only afford third ability right now. Exchange ghost."

"Host has comprehended ghost and now can remain invisible for 5 minutes."

"Time to farm Evo."

He was excited to try the new ability he had redeemed.
