Chereads / Body Control System / Chapter 2 - Chapter 02

Chapter 2 - Chapter 02

On random fateful night, like any other nights, David was out wandering aimlessly. Just walking and walking, trying to escape from the terrifying thoughts that plagued his mind. Until something peculiar in the sky caught his eye—a round light floating swiftly, like a torch gliding through the air. The light shimmered, yet seemed panicked, as if trying to escape from something. David watched with wide eyes, his heart pounding in his chest.

"What in the world is that light? What is it?" David's eyes widened.

Behind the light, a tall figure emerged, an alien with periwinkle blue skin, eyes sharp and determined. The alien chased the light with an intensity that made David feel a strong urge to run, yet his body remained rooted in place. The light spun, turned, evaded as if unwilling to be caught.

Then,

BOOM!

The light crashed into David's body, as if seeking a last refuge.

David staggered backward as the round light collided with his body harshly. In an instant, his whole world felt floaty—his eyes burning, body trembling, and a strange warmth spreading from his chest to his limbs. The sensation was so powerful that eventually, his consciousness faded. In the darkness of his mind, he felt himself falling into emptiness.

As David lay unconscious on the ground, something extraordinary happened within him.

[ DING ]

[ Pure Cosmic Energy Merging with New Host ]

The flashes of light enveloping David's body slowly absorbed, merging with his bloodstream and nerves. The pure energy from that light delved deep inside, finding his soul's core, melding with his slumbering body and mind.

[ Pure Cosmic Energy Adapting to Host ]

That energy, pure power from the universe, began to adapt, studying every aspect of the human body now its "new host." It seeped into every wound, every bitter memory, and desire in David's soul—the urge to reclaim control over his life, a strong desire to avenge the atrocities he had endured.

[ Pure Cosmic Energy Transforming into Body Control System ]

Within David's body, that energy shifted, transforming to heed his deepest desires. The light condensed into a system that would grant absolute control over his body—and others. Slowly, the light wholly integrated with his body, forming a system now called the Body Control System, a power that would help him manipulate and control every movement and action of anyone he wished.

Moments later, David awoke gasping for breath.

"Damn!"

He still lay on the ground, feeling different—lighter, stronger, and more aware than ever. Inside his head, a calm yet chilling voice, like a living system:

[Body Control System activated.]

David sat up slowly, feeling a significant change within him. He looked around, sensing newfound extraordinary power in his body. Suddenly, the image of a humanoid alien appeared before him—the figure that had pursued the light. The alien looked furious, its face tense, realizing that the power it coveted had now merged with David.

Swiftly, the alien launched a powerful energy attack towards David. His body responded automatically, moving with agility he had never experienced before. He dodged each alien strike effortlessly, as if his body moved without needing his control.

As David rose from the ground, his vision still slightly blurred, and his body feeling strange yet filled with newfound strength, he faced the terrifying figure emerging from the darkness once again. The alien stood tall and imposing, with rough grayish-green skin, sharp glowing eyes, clad in strange battle attire, its hands clenched in anger. With a deep, resonant voice, the alien gazed at David with pure malice.

"Weak humans like you are unworthy of such power!" the alien bellowed, eyes filled with hatred.
