The words 'Choose a system' echoed in Kaelen's mind, a stark contrast to the nothingness that had preceded them. He felt a strange sense of detachment, an almost clinical curiosity about his situation. The system, whatever it was, had clearly taken over, suppressing his emotions and presenting him with a stark choice: 100 options for his… afterlife? Reincarnation? Whatever this was, it was certainly not what he had expected.
Kaelen, ever the pragmatist, decided to approach this with a methodical mind. He imagined a list, a digital menu of possibilities scrolling before his eyes. "Show me the systems," he commanded internally.
Instantly, a surge of information flooded his mind. Images, concepts, and abilities flashed before him in rapid succession.
* The Scholar System: Gain immense knowledge in any field of study.
[The Warrior System: Become an unparalleled combatant, mastering various martial arts and weaponry].
[The Merchant System: Become a master of trade, accumulating wealth and influence].
[The Healer System: Acquire the ability to heal any ailment, both physical and mental].
[The Hunter System: Become a master hunter, surviving and thriving in any environment].
The options were dizzying, each promising a unique path. He saw systems that granted him supernatural powers, others that honed his mind to superhuman levels, and even some that offered him control over the elements.
Kaelen, however, was drawn to a more… mundane option. He saw a system called The Craftsman System:
[Master any craft with unparalleled skill].
[Unlock hidden potential in any material].
[Create items of extraordinary beauty and function].
This resonated with him. He had always enjoyed tinkering, fixing things around his apartment, and finding small pleasures in creating something with his own hands. The Craftsman System, with its focus on skill and creation, offered a sense of purpose, a chance to build something meaningful, even in this strange new reality.
"I choose… The Craftsman System," he declared, his voice echoing in the nothingness. [Warning this ia not permenant you shall get a new one in exactly 1 month]
A wave of warmth washed over him, and the overwhelming influx of information subsided. The nothingness began to recede, replaced by a sense of… anticipation. What would this new life bring? What wonders would he create?
