Forbidden Avorm is a famous school in the city of New York, America. It is a school ranked number 1 in the world. Many teenagers from various backgrounds live and study there.
In a dorm room at Forbidden Avorm, Rover is standing on a chair facing a rope with a weary look in his eyes.
Rover, feeling weary, secretly thinks to himself: "Is it really my fault to end up like this, why does fate always play me. What did I do to deserve being played to this point? I just want a normal life where I have parents who take care of me and protect me, friends who are always by my side and accompany me, and people who always love me. Is that too much to ask for? Huh..., even though I speak halfway to death and curse my fate, nothing will change. I should just finish this and go to sleep for a while."
Rover's gaze returns to the rope in front of him, he begins to hold the rope and aim it towards his neck. As he is about to end his life, a strange voice is heard in his head that startles Rover and makes him fall to the floor very hard.
"Hey, you lowly humans. I am 'The Creator' whom you consider as the creator, Lord, and god you seek and worship. For millions of years, I have despised you who curse and hate me when you experience misfortune. I hate you who mock me as if it was all my fault. Therefore, starting now, I will give you a new chance to change. Fight, and work hard to change your lives. Only through that, you can achieve a result and be grateful to me. I await you at the peak of life!"
After the voice stops, Rover's pupils immediately shrink. He feels time freezing, the whole world slowing down very quickly. It's as if time has stopped, and a countdown starts ringing in his head.
"5..."
"4..."
"3..."
"2..."
"1..."
After the countdown ends, he takes a deep breath as if he had run out of breath from the strange situation.
After a moment of calm, he starts to look around and sees many objects and furniture scattered around him. It makes him realize that the strange event just happened was indeed real.

Looking at the numbers in brackets, which represent the status of a normal person, it is certain that Rover's body condition is above that of a normal human. And that is quite valid, considering Rover used to live in a slum environment before being found and taken care of by his stepmother 3 years ago. So it is certain that he had to be strong first in order to survive in that slum environment.
"Magic...?" He stared at the word magic with curiosity. He had read a novel about magic given by his mother a month ago. And seeing magic in the attributes, made him somewhat interested in learning it.
But before he could continue with that, he heard some horrifying screams outside, causing Rover's body to immediately tense up and look towards the window to assess the situation. Outside, the world he knew had been destroyed. And what he saw now was no longer the same as what he had seen a while ago.
People were running around aimlessly, asking for help hoping to get assistance from others while trying to escape the chaos that was happening. But the most terrifying thing was the people who had turned into other creatures and were eating the people around them as if they were hungry monsters.
"Help, Mom help."
A toddler was crying and asking for help in the midst of the chaos. Rover tried to help, but it was too late. A horde of zombies came from all directions and began to surround the child, and soon after they started viciously tearing and biting at each part of the child's body.
Fresh blood could be seen flowing from the child's body and the zombies were tearing apart and devouring the insides of the child with greed.
Rover's pupils immediately dilated and trembled violently after witnessing such a gruesome incident. Although he had seen many people being killed in a tragic state in the slum environment, it was not as severe as what he had just witnessed.
Rover's body trembled intensely for a moment before returning to normal as he began to calm himself down to avoid falling into the same fate as the child.
While he was still paying attention to the outside world, a foreign voice was heard in his ears that made Rover spontaneously look towards where the sound was coming from.
A dragonfly the size of a human head was seen flying towards a group of zombies lurking under the dormitory.
The zombies were unable to react as quickly as the dragonfly when its sharp legs easily cut off the zombies' heads, revealing their brains.
After opening all the heads of the zombie group, the dragonfly greedily took their brains and ate them quickly.
There was rapid growth in its body after consuming that disgusting stuff.
After eating all of that, it turned to look around the entire room inside the dormitory and found Rover looking in its direction.
Quickly, the dragonfly shot towards him at an unpredictable speed. In the blink of an eye, the dragonfly was already in front of him and aimed its front legs, full of sharp thorns, towards him.
Rover, in a complex situation, immediately moved instinctively. Rover slid under the table to avoid the dragonfly's attack.
The dragonfly, which attacked Rover directly, immediately got stuck because one of its legs got caught in the wooden table that Rover passed by.
Not wanting to waste the opportunity, Rover immediately grabbed the knife on the dining table and began to rise and stab the dragonfly in the head.
The mutated creature tried to resist Rover's attack, but it was too late. Its consciousness quickly disappeared in an instant, leaving its body lying prostrate amid the pile of damaged wooden tables.
An intangible energy immediately shot into Rover's body, making him feel warmth for a moment.

"Wait, what is this?" Rover's eyes locked onto an old paper emitting a gray aura around it.
After taking it, a notification message immediately appeared in front of him.
