The Legacy of The Fallen

It was so dark, nobody could see the pit even without a light, it felt like drowning in the ocean. Clearly, this must be what death feels like? Drowning endlessly, not knowing what there is or when they could land on, how deep he could reach. The young man who was at verge of death, reaches out to that light because he was afraid of death.

He wanted to survive even at the point where he could never return to the surfaces but everything ends at some point.

[System acknowledges a player]

Even though he was surrounded by darkness, a voice came up and started to talk to the young man's ears.

[Do you want to live?]

The voice continued to question the young man, his motives, his desires, and his end yet he couldn't give an answer. He simply wanted to rest at some point, it got him to think that maybe death isn't so bad.

[Do you desire to be strong?]

The voice that calls itself, The System asked a different question this time. It began asking if it wanted power, did he have the greed to be more strong than anyone, the young man questioned the system.

[Player refuses to answer questions, questions shall be changed]

[Do you want to survive?]

The young man opened his eyes in the endless darkness he was falling into. Instinctively as he realised his own situation, he opened his mouth and air left his lungs. The adrenaline kicked, his instinct to survive rushed through his veins and made him swim up. To the light in which is the end goal. As long as his desire to survive is there, he will win, no matter the adversaries or pain that may cause this young man.

As long as he wants to survive, he can be strong. The young man swam hard enough while his hand continued to reach for the light, for the surface.

[DO YOU WANT TO SURVIVE, PLAYER?]

"YES!!"

The bright light shines on the young man's eyes as he slowly opened them, only to see himself at a world he couldn't recognize. A forest where little bit of the sunlight can shine, he was surrounded by oak trees. He was in a world that would depict itself as a fantasy setting, he was certainly in a different world than the one he used to be in.

"Where am i?"

The young man looked at his surroundings then at himself, his hands were rough, there were signs of calluses. He could tell that his body is different, it wasn't his and that something inside him is growing.

A weird looking screen is right Infront of his face, a system panel like the ones you see in games. Alex was dumbfounded as he tried to touch the screen but his hand went through, it seems like it's only for view. Regardless it seemed to him that things are now different, the common knowledge he has is differs to the ones that is known in this unknown world.

"Well then, what's our next stop?"

Alex wondered as began scouting his surroundings, while he is most likely lost in the forest, going forward was something he decided. Then he was attacked by wolves, rather great wolves considering their size and level that is over twenty.

This is a world like game and in this world, you can level up by fighting. However, Alex isn't someone who fights or have the ability to head on and face danger. Alex was a human being born in a world where these things don't exist. So his obvious response was to shake in fear and not move, while the pack of great wolves growl and surrounds him like a predator playing with it's prey.
