1 THE AKHASA SYSTEM

Chapter 1

"System acquired"

The cloud was abnormally quiet and bright today 'it feels like the calm before the storm' a teenage boy thought after looking out the window of his classroom window.

His name is Arthur the most average person you could find in the world he usually got good grades doesn't have any hobbies other than a few games he would play if he felt like it and he was an introvert so he didn't have many friends.

However he had a few friends he could trust one of them was Shirou one his hobbies were researching paranormal stuff and occult research.

Usually Arthur would come to class listen in classes have fun with Shirou during breaks and return home to his family he had a cool father, a caring mother, and lovely little sister. Before he had realized it A year or so have passed after doing the same routine day in and day out.

Then one faithful day when he was returning from his school he decided to take a detour due to his usual road closed for construction. When he was walking down the road he noticed how the specific road was different than his usual road.'ahh….this road has changed so much. This road used to be so lively with children playing around and stall full of people I wonder what happened here?'

he wondered while walking down the road then all of a sudden the space became distorted something fell out the distorted space Arthur was frightened

but still something was calling out to him to go and pick up the object.

Arthur was internally conflicted that if he should touch it or run away and call others. Then, after doing everything by the book he was frustrated and said "fuck it... am gonna touch it " then he went to the object lying on

the floor tried to inspect what it was however the object was fully covered in some ominous light and when he touched it he was transported to a black room void of anything and then he heard a monotone robotic voice saying "welcome brave one are you willing to take the examination to earn the right to wield the player system?"

after the voice finished saying it. A notification popped up in the black room there was two options

<YES> OR <NO>

Arthur felt excited it was first time in his life something had intrigued him to a point that he could hear his heart beating from his chest so he wanted to press <YES > his logical mind didn't allow it so he pressed <NO> instead

after he pressed <NO> a new notification popped up asking

<WARNING>

<AFTER PRESSING <NO> THE CONTESTANT'S SOUL MIGHT GET CORRUPTED>

<DO YOU REALLY WANNA PRESS NO?>

'What there's a chance that my soul could get corrupted? Hmm maybe I should think this through' Arthur thought in his head. Then he came to a conclusion that maybe the robotic voice is not just a speaker but could also answer my questions' Arthur wanted to put his theory to the test so he asked the voice " what is a player?"

the voice replied < I'm sorry CONTESTANT I can't answer that question fully but I can give you some bits of information> the black room replied in it's monotone robotic voice

however I can still tell you this < an impending doom is going to befall on earth you'll can either be the savior of this world or the abomination which causes the impending doom.

Arthur's jaw nearly dropped to the floor 'the what? The savior or the abomination ?,that's messed up' Arthur thought to himself.

Just before he was going to ask his next question the voice staed that

<YOU HAVE USED UP ONE OF YOUR THREE QUESTIONS>

<2/3 QUESTIONS REMAIN> <PLEASE CHOOSE WISELY>

'I have used up my questions? So this sneaky bastard only give me three questions fascinating' Arthur thought to himself and decided what to ask next

" OK, as for my next question how strong can I become if I get the player system?" Arthur asked it his second question

<A lot stronger than you would think> the voice replied with a smirk using it's robotic voice>

'did the robotic voice just smirked' Arthur was confused. And decided to ask his third question.

"finally my last question what or who are you and how could you predict the end of the world? And why me?"

<I am Akhasa the record keeper of the universe. As for how I could predict it it already happened in another timeline and as for you no matter what I change you are the center of everything that happened in each and every timeline you are an anomaly no matter how much I tried to eliminate you

you are always in the picture so I am now recruiting you to save it but I repect free will so I'll let you decide >

"free will? That's bullshit you trapped me in here so I should choose yes or my soul gets corrupted "

<hehe, as I thought that the robotic voice just doesn't suit me so just call me Akhasa>

<since I you already asked me three questions it would only be fair if I ask you one>

"the record keeper of the world asking this lowly human a question that messed up. Ok ,ask me but I don't know if I can answer it"

<what are you gonna choose I already gave you two options do u wan to become a savior or an abomination>

<or>

<are you gonna walk away?>

" I'm not gonna be any of those" Arthur replied with firm confidence

<very well>

<now to the main topic do you wanna partake in the exam to earn the right to wield the player system >

Before Akhasa could finish it's sentence Arthur had already walked upto to the yes option and pressed it while saying "I don't know about the others but I wanna save my family and friends."

<you are a fascinating being indeed> Akhasa said with a laughter

after Akhasa finished laughing the room which was fully black began transform and engulfed Arthur whole the last thing Arthur heared Akhasa said was

<you pass the test Arthur now go and forge your own path>

<oh I forgot I gave a you a little gift as well>

<use it wisely Arthur>

<And let's meet at the end of the road if u can make it there>

and then when Arthur woke up he saw a holographic screen loading
