Dravin stared wide-eyed at the information that had appeared in his head and inwardly frowned.
What was this? A system? Why was there a system in his head?
'Is this hell?'
Didn't he die when he jumped off the third-floor window to escape the "loving" hands of his flirty stepbrother?
Now, what was this situation?
Just as Dravin was deep in thought, he suddenly felt someone shaking him, and a cacophony of noises grew louder and louder.
"–in!"
"–ravin!"
"Dravin!"
It was then he realized he had his eyes closed all along.
He opened them and squinted hard as rays of sunlight beamed directly into his pupils.
As his vision cleared, confusion set in when he felt the gazes of thousands of people on him.
He was standing in a large glass tank fixed in the middle of a stadium filled with thousands of students lined up in an orderly fashion.
'Wait. Where am I?'
"BOOM!"
Dravin's mind instantly went blank as fragments of unknown memories surged into his brain like a flood!
By the time he recovered, it felt as though a thousand years had passed. In reality, it had only been a few seconds.
"Are you okay?"
A rather plump nurse asked, pointing a medical torch at his face as she flicked her wrist left to right. She was the one who had been shaking him earlier.
Dravin managed to nod his head as she helped him up.
"Haha! He actually awakened a trash Astra Soul Talent!"
"No wonder he fainted when he saw what he awakened."
"Can that even be listed in the Astra Soul Codex?"
"It's no wonder after 4 months of preparation, he could barely reach the peak of Rank 1 Super Soldier Stage.
While the sounds of mockery rang out across the stadium, Dravin was assisted back to the line to recruits.
His face flushed red when he saw the glaring holographic image floating at the center of the stadium, displaying his Astra Soul talent.
The entire academy had already seen it. Not to mention the instructors and everyone around him. By now, even his parents must have received word.
As the memories in his head pieced together, Dravin realized the truth—he had died and reincarnated into this world.
He had thought he'd just break his legs from jumping out of the second floor. Who would've thought he'd actually die from it?
This world was vastly different from earth and from what he had inferred from his predecessor's memory, it was more than ten times the size of earth.
About 900 years ago, a dimensional storm invaded earth as another dimension overlapped with this world, creating spatial gates that allowed dimensional creatures to invade this world, wiping nearly 80 percent of beings in this world.
After several years of strategizing, and exploring ancient ruins, the twenty percent left of humanity were finally able to harness the dimensional energy that surged into this world, awakening talents and utilizing that energy to become gods.
After the First Dimensional War things settled and Humans were able to rebuild.
Children were taught knowledge on the other dimension and names and characteristics of dimensional beasts until they were 16. After which they would apply to university, train as recruits for four months and then given the opportunity to awaken during the awakening ceremony.
The original Dravin hadn't expected to awaken such a low level talent that his heart actually gave out and he died from fear, allowing Dravin's soul to occupy his body.
"D-Dravin, are you alright?"
A young girl with pretty dark-blue eyes and silver hair slowly approached, asking in a shy but concerned tone.
Dravin immediately recognized her as Ivory. She was a timid girl from the recruitment training, one who often stared at his predecessor oddly but always ran away when their eyes met.
The original Dravin had always thought she was just a weirdo. Although she wasn't bad-looking and was slightly above average, he had never been interested in such girls.
Dravin gave a crooked smile and replied, "I'm alright now."
The girl's face instantly flushed red. She turned away slightly and stuttered.
"T-that's good. D-don't worry, I believe you'll be very strong even without an Astra Soul talent."
Before Dravin could respond, mocking laughter rang out from the line beside him. He instantly recognized the voice—Klein Reddington.
Klein laughed boldly as he sneered.
"What a disgrace! I knew you were worthless the moment I saw you, but I didn't realize just how worthless!
If I were you, I'd scram right now. Trying to get admitted into one of the Nine Great Universities? You're overestimating yourself. With an F-rank ability, one at the lowest too, you don't even qualify to be a servant here!"
Dravin's expression turned cold. "You should watch how you speak."
The surrounding students, who had been whispering and mocking, suddenly fell silent. Even Klein's face turned stiff, not to mention Ivory's.
But then, Klein erupted into another bout of laughter. It wasn't until one of the instructors scolded him that he finally stopped. He didn't think Dravin would have the gall to talk to him like that even after such trash talent.
An evil smirk appeared on his face.
"Daring to threaten me? You still think you're a talent? Heh. Wait until the awakening is over. I'll break you limb by limb and make sure you never run your mouth again."
Just then, an announcement echoed throughout the stadium:
"Klein Reddington."
Klein gave Dravin a cold smile, then proudly walked up to the stage.
