Chereads / Rise of the SSS Rank Phantom Lord / Chapter 7 - Activated and Adjusted

Chapter 7 - Activated and Adjusted

Sion was confused and did not know what was happening to him, he could hear the sound of a beep, he could hear the voice inside of his head, which was throbbing with pain as he gritted his teeth, trying his best to regain his composure but to no avail. 

He looked around, and his eyes widened when he saw a large flaming bird passing by. He heard the roar once more from within the forest, wondering what it was and how much danger he was in, for deep down, he knew his life was at risk with his current position. 

[Danger detected.]

[System, activation complete.]

[Welcome, master...]

"Master, huh... Wait... What? System? What the hell does that mean?" He exclaimed as he looked around and saw no one around him, the voice was from his head and that's when he realized, magic and everything was real in the world he now had to call his home. 

"What the hell is going on here? Am I going crazy?" He inquired as he clutched his head, which was still throbbing but not as much as it was before. 

"You are not going crazy, I am using telepathy to connect to you, to talk which is why you are able to hear my voice like that, in your head, do not worry, a stupid person could never be my master, count yourself lucky," The system explained and his brows furrowed in irritation at its tone. 

"Now, I will explain fully later but first I have to complete your full transformation when you first came here you had already taken the form that was meant for you, but your brain was still the same, it thought the same, it hindered your full transformation of the crossover, it could affect you here, that is not a good thing, this may hurt a bit, remember after this, you are still you, it is just your past self will disappear," The system said and that part he understood a bit. 

Before Sion could say anything else, his eyes began glowing bright red and a virtual panel appeared before his eyes with a bunch of information forming on the screen and his eyes scanned them. 

[Transformation commencing.] 

[Charts aligned...] 

[World information accessed.]

[Memories adjustment commencing.]

After the commands were activated, Sion's body began glowing and markings began appearing on the virtual screen reflecting in his eyes, as he was in a daze-like state and parts of his memories began blurring as though they were being erased, while some were kept intact. 

The body felt heavy, more real, more natural as a few markings appeared in a circle wrapping around the area, as the wind was picking up and the stone on the hill, began glowing eerily purple as the body transformation and mind was happening, the air thick and tense, almost heavy. 

[Transformation of being completed.]

[Form: Natural.] 

[Original Name: Sion.] 

[Gender: Male] 

[Orgin: Unknown/Non-categorized.]

[Age: 20.] 

[Body type: S.] 

After the system's commands were completed. Sion was now fully changed into that which was meant to be after what happened in the previous life, the transformation had now taken full effect, altering everything that they once were. 

As he regained his sense of self, he looked at the virtual screen and gritted his teeth, feeling a pang of pain in his body. He remembered only what was necessary; his past in which he was a normal person was now absent in his present form, leaving only the knowledge he brought from the modern world intact for his survival, it was necessary cause, for the world he was now in, was one unlike any other. 

"What is going on?" He mumbled as his memories flashed before his eyes, replaying the events of the past few hours, the king, his men, being chased and how he ended up where he currently was and he exhaled deeply as he looked around. 

"I am in trouble... How do I survive in a place I know nothing about?" He mumbled as he walked forth and his hair flowed with the cold wind, that surrounded him at the tim, while the sun had begun setting, shrouding the sky in darkness and stars. 

Sion looked down at a nearby lake beside the hill, and his eyes widened as he saw his reflection within. 

He had long crimson-like hair, with slightly purple mixed with blue eyes, he was much taller than before, almost 6'6, muscular and there was a leather eyepatch on his right eye, his appearance was now the only thing that he was satisfied with so far, even a little bit surprised. 

He looked at the virtual panel and his eyes narrowed as he remembered the voice of the system, before looking at the forest ahead of him, wondering what he was going to do next. 

"Now, I am stuck all alone here with no human in sight, what are you?" He asked as her eyes glowed slightly. 

"I see, you are confused, you can consider me your guide, one created to follow you alone, to guide you down whatever path you may choose in this world be it bad or good," It responded and his brows furrowed as he listened. 

[Alert: Your body is still changing, you need to take some rest, in order for your body to adjust to the atmosphere, the new environment.]

"What I need is an explanation that you are not giving properly, as well as food and a way to figure out how on earth I am going to start a living here. Until you cannot give me the answers that I need, I am not going to listen to you." He lashed out at the system, his patience worn thin by the mounting frustrations and his struggle to cope with the new surroundings, which were gradually taking their toll.

"My, my you are going to be a pain for the first bit of this experience, aren't you? I see you have got a foul mouth at times as well, fine I will explain in detail, you will obviously take time to adjust fully, it is only normal, you wouldn't be sane if you had immediately adjusted," It said. 

His brows twitched in irritation and the tone of the system and he took a deep breath to calm down as he tried to think while his stomach growled, he needed food, clothes and money, those were his top priorities at the time in order to survive.
