3 system

Jack accepted Alex's proposal, yet, as soon as he accepted, a question arose in Jack's mind, and he turned to Alex, seeking clarity, "You mentioned that I must also have sexual relationships with powerful women. I imagine that you are more powerful than these women, aren't you?"

Alex chuckled and shook his head, "No, not at all."

'why is he saying it like he is proud of it ?'

Perplexed, Jack asked, "Then how do you expect me to engage in relationships with the most powerful women in your world if I am weaker than them? They won't even give me a second glance."

Alex smiled at jack and said "don't worry I have a gift for you that will help you to become strong quickly"

Intrigued, Jack asked, "What is this gift?"

"You see this 'thing,' as I said, my friend betrayed me for, is an artifact we discovered together. We stumbled upon a treasure, and it promised immense fortune—medicaments to enhance strength, gold, and many other treasures. However, realizing that this artifact could make me incredibly powerful, I suggested we split the treasure in half. I told him that I would take only the artifact, and he could have the rest of the treasure,"

Alex paused before continuing with a furious expression. "He agreed, and each of us took what was promised. I spent months studying the artifact and eventually discovered how to wield its power. Meanwhile, that damn traitor had squandered everything he took and turned his greed towards the artifact, which was in my possession. Unable to challenge me on his own, he decided to involve his family—especially his sister—to get rid of me."

Jack mind raced with excitement and curiosity. "A system? Is he referring to those fantastical things I read about in fantasy novels when I was a child?' he wondered.

Jack looked at Alex and asked, "If he has already killed you, does that mean he already possesses the artifact?"

Alex grinned before replying, "You see, what he didn't know was that I had already activated the artifact. It merged with my soul, which is also one of the reasons why our two souls must merge."

Jack pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, let's do as you say."

Alex walked to him and said, "We don't have much time, since you accepted, I think it's time to start."

Jack nodded and said, "I'm ready."

As soon as Jack accepted the offer, a surge of energy enveloped him. The blank space around them seemed to transform into a kaleidoscope of colors, and Jack felt a merging of consciousness with Alex. Their souls intertwined, becoming one.

In that profound moment of fusion, Jack could feel Alex's memories, experiences, and emotions flowing into him. It was as if a floodgate had opened, flooding Jack's mind with a torrent of knowledge about Alex's world, his loved ones, and the people he mentioned earlier.

As the merging process completed, Jack found himself standing in Alex's body, which now felt strangely familiar yet foreign at the same time. He looked down at his new hands and flexed his fingers, getting used to the sensation.

Despite the sensation being faint, jack felt like he fondamentaly changed, it felt like it was now weird being called jack, like he was truly reborn as Alexander Eswald.

'guess I will just stick to being Alex and forget about my life as jack'

Jack easily accepted the opportunity to become Alex, as he didn't have a strong attachment to his past life. As he looked at Alex's body, he noticed that his physical condition wasn't particularly impressive. According to the information he received after merging with Alex, it seemed that Alex wasn't as strong as one might expect from his family background. However, being surrounded by powerful family members, he never needed to become strong to live a peaceful life.

Jack also learned how Alex had died. According to his memories, Alex's friend, Felix Sturbridge, had invited him to a bar and poisoned him. After finding no trace of the artifact on Alex, Felix must have disposed of his body in the forest, which explained its current location.

Moreover, when Alex mentioned being surrounded by women, he wasn't exaggerating. In his memories, Jack saw that Alex was indeed surrounded by women, with not a single man in sight. He had no brothers, and his father had been executed by the emperor. The murder of his father was another event Alex had sought revenge for, but lacking the strength, he had to reluctantly abandon that pursuit.

Within Alex's memories, Jack also learned how to use the artifact and called out mentally for 'status.'
