Lucas Yadav sat in the sterile doctor's office, the antiseptic smell sharp in his nostrils. The doctor, a sober-looking man with greying hair, shuffled some papers before finally meeting Lucas's anxious gaze.
"Mr. Yadav," the doctor began, his voice heavy with the weight of bad news. "I'm afraid the tests have come back, and it's not good. You have a rare, aggressive form of cancer. Given the advanced stage, you have approximately three months left. from the reports I have seen, it seems that you were born with this cancer and it has grown slowly with you since your childhood."
The words hit Lucas like a sledgehammer. His life, which had been filled with more downs than ups, seemed to unravel in an instant.
with a shaking voice, Lucas asked the doctor if there was a way to cure him. The doctor also replied that the cancer he had been suffering from had already spread into all his blood vessels and couldn't be cured.
The future he had vaguely hoped for was now a cruel impossibility, leaving him with only a void of despair.
then the doctor said that he should get hospitalized as it is not good for his already declining health to stay outdoors now. hearing this Lucas became even more sad as he didn't want to finish the last moments of his life at the hospital bed.
The next hours passed in a haze. Lucas wandered the hospital corridors, feeling like a shadow of himself. There was a storm of his emotions—fear, anger, and hopelessness—overwhelmed him. He headed toward the hospital rooftop, trying to escape his suffering and find some peace.
On the rooftop, the city stretched out below him in a sprawling sea of lights and movement. The sky was a canvas of pink and orange as dusk settled in. The cool breeze felt slightly soothing, but it couldn't drown out the turmoil inside him.
Standing at the edge, Lucas gazed down at the busy streets below. The thought of ending his life seemed almost like a relief—a way to finish this pain of his inevitable suffering. But as he looked out at the city, the vibrant life below stirred something within him. He thought of the fleeting moments of joy and the dreams he still harboured, however distant.
A tear slipped down his cheek as he stepped back from the edge, deciding to fight for the time he had left. But fate had other plans. A sudden gust of wind caught him off guard, making him lose his balance. Flailing desperately, he couldn't regain his footing. His foot slipped, and he plunged into the void below.
The fall felt endless. As time passed his mind was filled with memories and regrets. He thought of everything he wished he could have experienced, the dreams he never had a chance to fulfil.
Then, with a sickening thud, everything went black.
Lucas awoke to an otherworldly sensation of weightlessness, surrounded by an infinite, dark void. His perception of his body was ethereal, almost like a faint outline of his former self. Panic surged through him as he struggled to understand his new reality.
Suddenly, a calm, mechanical voice resonated in his mind.
<20%>
<30%>
<50%>
<80%>
<100%>
The voice paused briefly before continuing.
A moment later, the voice resumed.
The intense light enveloped Lucas once more, and he felt his consciousness being pulled away.
Lucas's confusion deepened. "What does this mean? Where am I?" he thought, but the voice continued as though he hadn't spoken.
Who are you, how are you talking to me?
< I am an omni system and the host has died. The system has reincarnated the host as a source in the world of Elara. The system is inside host Lucas Yadav and integrated with the host.>
Lucas was shocked after listening to all this information. Then he remembered that he had fallen from the rooftop of the hospital and had died. He was suddenly filled with regret as he was not even able to meet his family before death. he thought about his family, who would never know what happened to him. He felt deep sorrow for not being able to say goodbye. After a few moments of silence and thinking about his past life and finally accepting that he had died, he asked the system where he was.
So I can't go to my home world.
What is this source and source point you speak of?
Ok. How can I see my status? Should I speak status? As I said system suddenly a transparent screen became visible to me.
