A new World, A new life, A new Person.

Suddenly I found myself standing in the middle of the road. The sound of engines, the cadence of people's steps. I looked around and could see many people coming and going as they pleased. Men and women, Olds and Youngs. Everything seemed pretty normal to me. The only thing different was me, from my viewpoint, I could tell I was taller than before, how much taller? much taller.

But still, rather than making me feel relieved, I felt more disappointed than anything honestly. I didn't expect to... go to a world so closely familiar. 

In fact, if it wasn't my experience from moments ago I wouldn't even believe this was a different world.

l expected to end up in a world of pure fantasy like Game of Thrones or perhaps a science-fi world like cyberpunk? Could have also been something like Warhammer 40k or Dark Soul... although frightening even to think about, it was still a valid guess.

But I ended up in a world vastly resembling the one I left before. Why? Perhaps "He" thought that it would be much easier for me to readapt then.

But I wasn't letting what I perceived as a "normal world" make me complacent and hopeful as I have been told that this world would be far more dangerous than the previous one.

Though I had no idea what kind of danger "he" referred to, It could be anything really. From all kinds of fiction I have seen, there could be plenty of horrendous things and creatures hidden in a seemingly peaceful world.

Who knows? There may be some eldrich creature around the corner, or a demon king controlling the world in secret, or I could just blink and spacial gates would open everywhere in the world with monsters rushing out of them... really, it could be anything.

Well, what should I do now? I didn't think of the possibility of ending up in this situation, and I couldn't bother to include background customization into my wish.

And the only other way to have that without wishing for it would have been reincarnation, but I couldn't bother going through all of that again.

Plus I didn't want to take the risk of being killed as a child... could happen in a not-so-peaceful world.

So right now I was just a guy that popped out of nowhere with no money, no family, no way of identification, and lastly no bitches... well the last one wasn't that important.

Though I was grateful nobody seemed to notice that I basically popped into existence, I still had to do something about my current situation.

So I walked, why? I don't know, but staying stationary wasn't going to help me as well. 

Where? I don't know but I will see where the wind takes me... Yeah, my current situation wasn't really the best, but best believe we'll figure it out one way or another.

As I walked following the masses, I wondered how they were going to manifest. My powers I mean, would I have to figure it out myself or would it come to me naturally?

I had been told that they wouldn't manifest the way I expected and that there would be some minute change to fit the world so I had no idea how it was gonna play out. 

I raised a hand to my chin as I pondered over it, "he" really should have given me more details... Well, now use worrying about spilled milk as they say. 

The main thing is right now, I don't feel that much different from before, I didn't feel any kind of superhuman strengh or senses nor any sort of wild instinct. I was pretty normal. Very much your mister anybody.

Now there are three ways I see this could play out. Let's start with the first. 

[Status] 

I called out in my mind, focusing on the intent to manifest it. 

Surprisingly, I didn't have to try the two others, it worked perfectly.

Well for one that was a bit different from what I expected. 

Putting aside the skills, Inventory, and Shop categories aside, those were pretty normal and expected.

What took me off guard was that I couldn't see my level or stats, meaning I couldn't hunt to level up.

The title owner of the heart had probably something to do with Jinwoo's black heart.

My class was unknown, no, more like it was hidden, I don't know why though. There shouldn't be any being like the architect limiting the amount of information I could get.

Or was it because I wasn't powerful enough? Let's think about that at a later time.

The space for my name was blank, which obviously meant that I had to decide one for myself.

Lastly and most importantly, what is this thing? Synchronization rate. Judging by it I had an idea of what it could be but I wasn't sure.

I focused my intent on it before moving a finger to click on it. 

[Do you wish to increase the synchronization rate?] [Yes/No]

A notification appeared before me, very much confirming my doubts. This very much reminded me of those fanfictions where the MC has a template system or something similar. 

Would I get the power of sung jinwoo by increasing it? I at least think it would. 

If that's not it I cannot see any other way for me to grow stronger and gain his power at least from the status screen.

Hmm... let's try it.

First I need to head somewhere concealed, wouldn't want to cause a ruckus without being willing to.

You know those times in manga and stuff when there is a power awakening followed by a huge outward expression of energy? Yeah, it's very cool, flashy and awesome. 

But I currently didn't need others to see that, could attract unneeded attention... not that my goal was to hide like a rat and avoid conflict, but currently I didn't have any power to protect myself.

Always hated those types of protagonists to be honest, if you have power use it, if you want to do something do it. 

What is the use of hiding your powers while you are so powerful? Why would you want power if your goal is to lead a normal life? Why would you choose to talk your enemies out of their way when you can just take them out of life?

In some circumstances, I could understand such actions but most of the time it just seems to make them unlikable. 

I am not saying to kill everyone for the slightest offense but at least do not let yourself be led around like an idiot and stand your ground when needed.

Some actions shouldn't be tolerated if you are someone of high stature; respect and pride should be necessary for all. Pride and Arrogance are different, mind you.

Anyway, by the time I ended up ranting to myself, I found what I was looking for, a deserted alley, where even the sunlight has trouble reaching.

It seemed creepy how no people there were around or the fact that I couldn't really hear any sound. Normally I would get out of here as fast as possible but currently, this was the best place for me to do what I wanted.

Then let's do this, first I try this synchronization stuff out, and then I get out of here fast.

[Do you wish to increase the synchronization rate?] [Yes/No]

I clicked on yes. 

"Huh?" I let out involuntarily.

For me, the world temporarily became pitch black.
