Chapter 4 - Origin - ACT 1.1

A/N: This work is being REWRITE as I created it too casually without thoughts. and made the MC abilities too OP. Xd

+++{3rd POV}+++

In a space between dimensions, where nothing exists but the primordial void that filled the emptiness.

Supposedly a place where everything shouldn't exist, exists... a single stray soul from a certain universe has wandered too far from its world and unfortunately into this void.

In a space that is only filled with the primordial void anything within that isn't made of it will slowly be consumed by it. Some few will survive this corruption by the void but sadly... this poor soul is not one of those few.

So it can only helplessly watch and scream in pain as its soul is being consumed and transformed into a primordial void.

As the unfortunate soul is being stripped away from its persona, a red ball traveling at a speed incomprehensible to most went and merge with soul and give it a protective layer that prevents the void from damaging it any further.

...

+++{Yu Xian POV}+++

[Ding! System has found a compatible Host]

[Attempting to bond with the Host...]

[Ding! System has successfully bonded with the Host]

[WARNING! Detected the Host soul is being damaged by the void]

[Activating Basic Defensive Protocol...]

[Ding! Basic Defense Protocol is Active]

[Ding! Welcome to the Emotion System, Host]

...

"The pain... is gone...?"

I don't know how... but, I remember organizing my things in the attic when I found my old Gen 1 Sonic The Hedgehog™ game and decided to play it on my old console that still somehow works. Then it all went to black.

Then a sudden wave of being eaten and torn apart by something rushed towards my entire being, the pain was so unbearable, like being eaten by rats, tortured like in those medieval era that I wished to die quickly.

Before I could go insane from the pain, a sudden ding sound echoed through my ears and the pain slowly faded.

...

[Welcome to the Emotion System, Host]

[This System lets you become strong or buy things through gaining the emotion of others, whether it is happiness, sadness, hope, despair, fear... etc. you will gain corresponding Emotion Points (EP) depending how strong that emotion was]

"A system...? like those in novels...?" I tried to remember but my memories suddenly became hazy, my name is Yu Xian... I am born Chinese... but don't know which part of China.

ugh... no matter how hard I tried, I just can't...

[Ding! Due to the void damaging the Host's soul, part of you will also be missing or damaged, like losing memories]

"Did you just... read my mind...?"

[Ding! The System has bonded with the Host, therefore, inner monologues can also be heard by the System]
