Inside a forest, a gentle breeze blew as a young man lay unconsious on the ground .
A groan escaped his lips as he slowly woke up . The young man gasped for a breath of air before he whispered, "W-where am I?"
Suddenly, the young man collapsed to the ground again as he clutched his head in pain . The young man felt memories, old and new, flood into him . Sweat dropped from his brows as he lay on the ground .
The young man, exhausted and confused, slowly said, "I remember… I was at home before a man came inside and killed me…"
The young man froze as his face slowly turned into a frown . He said, "Then whose memories are these? A third prince, exiled for being a useless disgrace… killed by an assassin, hired by his… no, my father…"
The young man slowly sat up as he began to realize, he was the young prince . Gritting through the pain, the young man slowly made his way towards the sound of water . After 10 minutes, he came across a lake with streams pointing in every direction . The young man walked to the edge of the pool and looked at his own reflection .
The lake's surface showed a handsome young man, about 15 years old . The young man had jetblack hair and dark blue eyes . He appeared rather scrawny and weak while his skin was a pale white . He was wearing a tattered shirt that had a bloody hole where his heart was .
The young man felt his face before he said, "Is that… me?"
The young man smiled . He closed his eyes and put a hand over his heart before he said, "Nice, I get to live again . I must have taken over this guys body when we died . Don't worry bro . Because I got your memories, I can feel what you wanted . We will have our revenge, so rest easy and reincarnate . "
The young man slightly glowed as a spirit in the shape of the young man flowed out from him . The spirit smiled and bowed before it began to fade and disappered .
Suddenly, a transparent screen appeared before the young man . The screen read, [The Adapting system would like to bind to host, Accept?]
The young man stared at the screen as he thought, 'This must be my cliche power but… Adapting system?'
He stared for a second before he said, "Accept . "
The screen changed as it displayed a loading screen, [Binding: 1%… 13%… 37%… 76%… 100%… Congratulations host for successfully binding . Host has been awarded: 1x Starter Package . ]
Even though he expected it, he was still surprised when the system binded with him . He felt a weird, tingling feeling course through out his body before it settled down and went back to normal .
The young man sat down as he said, "System?"
[Yes host? Also, a quick reminder . Please use your thoughts to talk to the system or else you risk looking like a crazy person . ] Instead of a screen, the young man heard a robotic voice with no distinguishing trait .
"System, what exactly can you do?" The young man asked . The sun was up high in the sky so the forest floor felt extreme warm and cozy, making the young man yawn .
[I can grant you anything from the realms in which you've been to . ]
The young man froze as he thought, 'This is actually… more than expected . '
The young man suddenly yawned as his eyes slowly closed and he fell asleep . After a couple hours, he woke up and said, "System, what happened while I was asleep?"
[Nothing important happened . Some small animals came by and drank some water before leaving . ]
The young man slowly stood up as he said, "System, how do I get stuff?"
[You can use the store function . Anything in the world's you've been to can be bought, for a price . Also, you should open the starter pack as it'll give you a small amount of System points, a set of clothes, a weapon and an ability . ] Explained the system . The young man nodded towards the explanation as he asked the system to open the starter pack . He gained 10,000 system points, a white shirt with black jeans and black sports shoes, a light green crystal bow and a cooking skill .
"System, what's with this bow? I don't even have a quiver or arrows!" Said the young man . From his memories, both this life and the last, he never used the bow . His last life was a world of peace so he never got the chance and in this world, his body couldn't handle any type of strain so he never even left his bedroom .
The system gave a quick reply as it said, [That bow is called 'Oak' and it's the lost treasure of the elves . Oak was lost in the second world war as the Elven king at the time entered the fray to give his people enough time to escape . This bow is made from a material called 'Hallow' and has the ability to turn a person's magic power into an arrow . ]
The young man stood wide-eyed as he stared at the bow . He thought that he must be extremely lucky to get a legendary equipment on his first try . The young man held the bow in a standard archery position and tried to make an arrow but after 5 minutes, the only thing he managed to make was silence .
The young man brought the bow down and asked, "Hey system, Why can't I make an arrow?"
[It's because host has damaged magic circuits . The system can fix them for 5,000 system points . ]
The young man collapsed to his knees as he muttered, "So expensive…"
After think for a bit, the young man agreed and asked the system to fix his magic circuits . It took roughly 30 minutes before the system told him it was finished . The young man closed his eyes as he savoured the feeling of magic flow through his body . He stood up and held the bow and tried to channel his magic to the bow . The bow shone with a dim green light as an arrow of light appeared . The young man drew the arrow back and aimed at a far away tree . He suddenly let the arrow loose as it took off in a blur of light . A couple seconds later, an explosion rang out as a huge dust cloud rose in the direction he fired the arrow .
The young man sprinted towards the dust cloud . Waiting as the dust settled, the young man said, "System, can you store the bow? It'll be inconvenient to always carry it . Plus, it could get stolen . "
[Opening Inventory Function… Inventory Unlocked! Host only needs to think of what you want to store or take out to use the inventory . Also, dropping a drop of blood on the bow binds it to the host . ]
The young man stored the bow after binding it before turning towards the dust cloud and became stunned . What appeared was an extremely long snake with transparent scales that shimmered in the light, making it extremely hard to find but the huge hole through it's body helped .
Suddenly, the system rang out as it said, [Opening Quest Function… Quest Function Unlocked!
Quest complete: Kill 1 one-star beast .
Reward: 10 system points .
Milestone Quest Complete: Reach level 5 .
Reward: 10 Status points . ]
The young man asked, "System, what other functions do you have? Plus, what's with the one-star thing?"
[The system has a myriad amount of functions, however, the functions the host can unlock depends on the situation . They could be unlocked or maybe not . The systems current functions are: Status, Abilities, Inventory, Store and Quests . Next, the one-star represents the beasts danger rating . In this world, people and beast have evolved into extremely strong beings . Humans developed cultivation and magic while beasts evolved . A normal animal doesn't have a rating but when it evolves into a beast, it gains a star rating . Each star represents its danger level and while one-star may seem weak, it's still able to destroy villages . ]
The young man thanked the system for the information as he stored the corpse . He checked his surroundings before slowly making his way back to the lake . He sat down on the edge of the lake as he said, "The third prince died that day and I took over, so lets bury his names to let him rest in peace . From this day forward, I'll be called…"
