Night fell over the village. The beast's corpse had long since been dragged away, the people whispering prayers of gratitude to gods that never answered.
I sat alone in the shadows of my room, eyes half-closed, as glowing text still lingered before me.
[Quest Active: Survive. Observe. Integrate.
Warning: Anomaly detected. Monitoring in progress.]
The System had tried to cage me.
I pressed my palm against the wooden floorboards, whispering a thought.
Disintegrate.
The wood dissolved into dust, vanishing into the void. Another whisper.
Integrate.
The wood returned, perfectly restored, as if nothing had happened.
The System responded instantly.
[Action Detected: Reality Override
Error: Operation Undefined
Warning! World Stability at Risk]
I chuckled softly. World stability at risk? From a single plank of wood? How fragile you are.
Curiosity burned in me. What else could I erase?
I closed my eyes and focused inward—not on objects, but on concepts. On sensations.
Disintegrate… fear.
A cold shiver rippled through my chest. My heartbeat steadied. Every trace of instinctive dread—gone.
[Warning! Tampering with Abstract Variables Detected
Restriction Protocol: Initiated]
A sharp pain pierced my skull, like needles driving into my brain. The System's attempt at punishment.
I smiled through it. "So, you can hurt me. How interesting."
The pain faded quickly. Too quickly. It couldn't hold me.
A knock at my door interrupted my amusement.
"Hey, you in there?"
It was a boy. My age—or rather, this body's age. Untidy hair, dirt on his cheeks, the wide-eyed seriousness of an innocent fool.
I opened the door slightly, letting my gaze fall on him.
"I saw you earlier," he said, voice trembling with awe. "When the monster was chained… I think it was you, wasn't it?"
So someone had noticed.
I tilted my head, forcing a small, hesitant smile. "That's… impossible. I'm just a child."
His eyes lit up. "No, I know it was you! You saved us! Please—teach me! I want to be strong like you!"
Pathetic. So easily deceived.
But useful. Very useful.
"I'll… think about it," I murmured, letting my voice waver just enough to sound unsure.
The boy's expression brightened with hope. He bowed his head and ran off, no doubt fantasizing about his future greatness.
I closed the door and laughed. Low, sharp, twisted.
The System flared again.

He twisted his wrist mid-swing, dragging the blade down her weapon and forcing her back, ice crawling across the spear before shattering under a surge of black-red flames.\n\nShe laughed.\n\"You're late,\" she said, spinning and driving her spear toward his chest.\n\nEira barely deflected. The impact hurled him through the sky, his body twisting as he fought to regain control. He stopped himself with a burst of cold, boots skidding against invisible air, sword humming violently in his hands.\n\nOnly then did the world reveal itself.\nEndless white stretched beneath them, cracked and broken by war. Bodies lay scattered across the frozen land—men and women with silver hair, armor torn, weapons buried deep into ice. Some moved. Some didn't. The ground itself bore scars of mana so deep they still glowed faintly.\n\nA pressure rolled outward from Eira as he steadied himself. Far away, people collapsed without being touched. Knees buckled. Breath failed. Even standing became impossible under the weight of his presence.\n\nThe woman floated calmly across from him, fire and shadow wrapping around her form. Her spear burned red, veins of black mana pulsing like a living thing. Flames spiraled outward from her body, erasing frost, stone, and anything else that dared exist too close.\n\nBelow them, a young woman stood shaking, blood running down her arm as she held up a glowing shield. She was wounded badly, yet she didn't step back. She shielded the fallen behind her with everything she had left. Eira saw her. His jaw clenched.\n\n\"Still distracted,\" the woman said, her voice carrying easily across the battlefield. \"That hasn't changed.\"\n\nShe raised her spear and slammed it downward.\nFire crashed toward him like a collapsing sun. Eira answered by lifting his sword, blue light roaring outward as the flames split apart around him. The shockwave tore across the land, ice forming and breaking in the same breath. The sky broke. They moved again.\n\nSword and spear collided midair, faster than sight, each strike releasing violent surges of mana that warped the world itself. Blizzards swallowed firestorms. Flames evaporated ice. Mountains formed and shattered in seconds.\n\n\"You're weaker,\" she said, twisting her spear and driving him back through a wall of frozen air. \"Did dying once finally dull you?\"\n\nEira staggered, blood spilling from his mouth as he caught himself.
