On a winter night, a young man is running like an Olympic runner to catch the last bus as if his life depended on it. The passing people look at him like 'Why TF is he running like an idiot?'. Of course, the young man noticed their looks but he didn't care about that.
He thought 'If I didn't run like this, I wouldn't be able to catch the bus. If I can't catch the bus, I can't go home and I definitely can't afford a taxi. Ahhhhhhh it's that idiot's fault for making me work overtime. Please god, I just want to go home and eat my delicious noodles, and fried chicken, and drink the cheap but good beer. But sweet and sour pork also sounds good for dinner. Damn that sweet and sour mixed flavor and bright appearance. These coated pieces of meat are deep-fried until golden and crunchy and the sweet sauce. Mmmmm, yummy '
' WAIT a minute, why am I running?? (•ิ_•ิ)???'
His inner voice: "You are running to catch the bus stupid,"
Nyx: "Oh crap. Why didn't you tell me sooner, you little s**t ?"
His inner voice: "....idiot "
While running hurriedly, he didn't have the time to notice the car which didn't stop at a red light stop sign. BANG
The moment the car's hood collided with his body, he sent up flying and landed a few meters away from the car. The passing people saw this accident and came rushing to help him. A man pulls out his phone calling for the ambulance and several people crowd around him.No matter how much he tries to move or speak, his body won't listen to him as if it's not his anymore. His whole body hurts like a mountain is placed upon him. As the seconds pass, he slowly drifts into an endless sleep. His surroundings gradually become dark and he can feel that his soul is slowly drifting away from his body.
'Am I going to die?'
Inner voice, 'We are going to wonderland'
Nyx(-_-):'.....'
Inner voice, 'Of course genius, if we are hit by a car and lie on the ground with our head split open, we will definitely die'
Nyx: 'You are so annoying, shut up'
As his blood-redden eyes slowly lost their light, he thought 'I don't want to die yet' as his last drop of tears fell from his eyes and his breath stopped.
In an endless white space, there floats a strange thing that does not belong in that place. Bright lights shone on his face, causing him to wake up.
Nyx: "ahhhh this f*** sunlight. Even after I die, I can't seem to sleep peacefully. I want to complain to the gods to shut down the sun for a day to mourn my death."
"wait, sunlight?? How can I feel the sunlight if I have already died(⊙.☉)"
"wake up... wake....p...WAKE UP WAKE UP"
Nyx: "Huh, seems like there is a voice calling me. a child's voice?? No, it sounds a ...Lolita's voice? Right, it is Lolita's voice. Don't tell me, am I in heaven?"
Joju(system): "No, my sweet lovely stupid dear host. Stop your foolish dream, you're not in heaven."
After this voice spoke, he slowly woke up from his sleep and looked around his surroundings, searching for the source of that voice. When he looked around the place he was in, he became dumbfounded.
Nyx: "What is this place?"
Joju: "Dear host, don't worry, we are in the system's space."
When the voice fell, there was a system-like interface in front of him. On its screen, there are strings of words and options are displayed and that same Lolita voice is coming from it.
Nyx: "What the ...."
Joju: "Hello host, my name is Joju. Cute name right, I know. hehehehe o(^▽^)o.And I am your sweet system who will help you to save the world. We will be inseparable, my dear host, and blah blah ..."
The stupid system continued on saying nonsense and didn't notice how Nyx's face became so unsightly when listening to its rambling speech.
Nyx: 'What the hell is this thing talking about? System?? save the world????? '
Listening to that system's voice made him have a slight headache.
Nyx: "Stop stop stop..."
Joju: "Ehh, What?"
Nyx: "What do you mean by saving the world and the system?? I am pretty sure that I am dead."
Joju: "Well, technically you are dead but your soul is not. I heard your last dying wish and so decided to help you fulfill your wish and, in return, you will help the system save the world. It's a win-win situation, host"
Nyx: "You mean to save the world like in movies and novels where a guy transmigrates to another world and fights dragons and demons like a hero and has lots of beauty and lives happily ever after???"
Joju(o((^▽^))o): " Yes ,dear host. As accepted, my host is a genius. But a little different in our case. we're not going to fight demons or dragons, but zombies. "
'No, any idiot can guess it. It's not a legendary secret'(-_-) but he kept his thoughts to himself.
Nyx: "Wait, fighting ZOMBIES!?? As in the apocalypse?? When the monster bites or scratches you, you become one of their family members??? "
Joju: "Yes, that's right. But not becoming their family members, becoming a monster? "
He thought 'I was being sarcastic, kid.'
Nyx: "Ummm...can I pass?"
Joju: "Ehhh, No you can't. What, are we playing a quiz game?? silly host. Of course, you can't. But if you don't agree with this, your soul will shatter into pieces and you will never be able to live a life again."
