The entire world changed 7 years ago, after the emergence of the tower and dungeons all around the world.
Horrifying monsters roamed around the world and an even more terrifying, a huge and magnificent tower whose height even surpassed the sky appeared out of thin air.
But, the world didn't forego us, people started to awaken new capabilities inside them in the form of a system.
This only happened to a few people, not everyone, and only those whose age was at least 16.
Many awakened powers were useful in battle, some awakened to support and some powers remained useless. Except for those who awakened, some people never awakened as well.
Evan, a 23-year-old young man was one of the awakened. He was awakened when he was at the age of 16.
And, the ability he awakened was... Unknown.
Yep, that was his power, nobody knows what that was and what it does at all. So, even though he awakened, he was nothing more than a normal human.
"You piece of shit, you can't even do a single thing properly. I can't stand you any longer, get out of my shop right now."
A fat pig, with almost no hair on his head was yelling at Evan.
He worked in a convenience store and the man standing in front of him was the owner of this store.
Evan wasn't able to utter a single word at his yelling at all. He knew why he was kicking him out of this store, and it wasn't because he was at fault at all, he was getting kicked out because of the girl standing beside Evan.
She seduced the owner and made him kick Evan out of his job.
Clenching his fist and gritting his teeth was the only thing Evan could do.
Though Evan could have at least beaten the shit out of this fatass, he wasn't due to the law. Evan was awakened so even if he was like a normal human, he couldn't beat this fat pig.
'Just you wait, if I ever get to know my real ability, I will beat the shit of you.'
His thoughts were wild, but without a single word, he went out of the store.
He strolled outside, reminiscing about the life he had been living, he couldn't imagine anything good that ever happened to him.
Evan has been living as an orphan, so he never had anyone he could call his family. Even at the orphanage, he was bullied every day and other kids used to make fun of him. His body was weak from his birth and he wasn't able to change himself no matter what.
However, at one time he beat the one guy who used to bully him so badly that he fainted. After that time, nobody made fun of him, but he still was alone.
He didn't get to finish his education properly, so he just had to work these small jobs for a living.
Getting an awakening was probably the only good thing that happened to him, but even that was of no value to him.
"Ha... why is my life so meaningless?" He sighed and said.
He stopped his feet and looked at the sky after sensing something. Two figures which were almost the size of a fly were chasing against each other.
[Congratulations, the 50th floor of the tower has been cleared.]
Suddenly he heard the notification from the system, which shocked him and he couldn't help but wail in his sorrow once again.
'What?! They even cleared the 50th floor?! And here I am, not even on the 1st floor. Can't my life be any better, at least let me know what this unknown is?'
He wasn't able to take his eyes off those figures. He has always admired the strong and thrived to become someone strong as well, but no matter how much he tried, he couldn't surpass his limit and unveil his skill.
In the sky, those two figures were chasing each other. The one who was chasing the other guy used his skill, which took the form of a chain, and attacked the one in front.
Sensing the attack on his back, he also replied with his back slashing the sword at those chains.
This process went on for a while, but after some time Evan's eyes widened and he exclaimed in his head,
'Why are they heading towards me?!'
Faster than Evan's eyes could follow, the two figures like lighting were closing near Evan.
He wanted to back away not trying to hinder those two, but he couldn't. He was trapped in the aura they were releasing. Sensing their aura, he immediately realized they were strong and probably were those mighty S-rankers, he used to hear on the news.
They are the peak powerhouses of this planet and can overthrow a whole country in a matter of minutes. And now he was in between the fights of two S-rankers, he knew what would be his outcome right there.
'Oh, shit. I am so fucked right now.'
His prediction became true the next moment when he saw the chains which looked even more powerful from up close, coming towards him.
The moment those chains landed, the whole place was turned upside down. It easily destroyed everything that came in its way and all the buildings in its way crumbled down.
Evan wasn't affected directly but the debris after destruction and its shockwave affected him and he was sent flying. His internal organs were damaged and he was bleeding from his nose, and his mouth everywhere, while a rod pierced into his gut.
All the people who were also looking at the two S-rankers ran immediately after seeing the destruction caused by them while screaming their throats out.
'H-how did this happen?'
Evan was still in shock, he wasn't even able to see how all this happened in a matter of seconds.
He hated this all. He hated his powerlessness. Throughout his life, he didn't get anything of value or a shred of happiness, and now his life was running out as well.
'Am I gonna die like this? Without achieving anything?! Nobody will remember me as well, why was I even born?!'
He looked at the two figures fighting against each other, their battle was fierce and it only caused more destruction.
Evan looked at them both and bit his lips, he has always handled his problem on his own and even though he was born weak, he never knelt in front of anyone and beat the shit out of anyone who tried to harm him, but these two... he couldn't do anything against them. He was simply too weak to damage them.
Evan's vision started to blur, he was losing too much blood and knew his time was nearing, and at that moment the fight between those two figures also ended.
The guy using the chain was slain by the guy using the sword, but it wasn't without a loss, he was injured severely as well.
At the last moment, he was pierced by the chains straight in his heart, but even with a hole in his chest, he stood straight but even he knew he wouldn't live after this.
He will again get chased by someone else. He then took out a crystal omitting a dark and sinister aura around it, and said...
"All these for this crystal without a description? Just what is this thing."
He also had no idea what that thing on his hand was. This crystal was the reward for clearing the 50th floor, and immediately after clearing the floor, he was chased by the guy who just died.
He didn't know what the crystal was but someone else did... Evan who was almost about to pass out, heard another notification from the system.
[The fragment of the unknown is near the host. Do you wish to integrate with it?]
Evan didn't know what was happening, he didn't listen to the system as well. He was on the brink of death, with his hazy eyes he looked at the system and the man standing in front of him.
He tried to focus his vision, but he was only able to see the options on the system screen. Without even knowing what the system was asking him for, he said on his mind...
'Accept...'
And closed his eyes.
[Host has accepted the intregation. Beginning to fuse with the fragment of unknown.]
After this notification came, the crystal on the hand of the man escaped from his hand and went inside Evan with a 'Whoosh' sound.
The man was surprised and shocked at the same time, he wasn't able to stop the crystal at all.
Just when he was about to go to Evan to take the crystal back, he saw a few more figures coming towards him. Though hesitant, he had to go away for now.
Inside Evan's mind, the system was starting the process of fusing the fragment of the unknown with Evan.
[Starting the process of fusion. 1%... 2%… Warning, the host is in a critical condition right now, stopping the fusion right now. The host won't be able to survive the fusion with his current body. Searching the perfect body for the host...]
[Found the body same as the host. Starting the process of transmigration.]
[Transmigration, successful.]
