Rain poured heavily on the empty street as Arif walked home after a long day of work. His clothes were wet and his stomach was empty. Life had never been easy for him. He worked all day but still barely earned enough money to survive.
As he walked under the dim street lights, he looked at the sky and sighed.
"Why is life so unfair?" he whispered quietly.
Suddenly, a loud sound echoed across the road.
A truck lost control and rushed straight toward him.
Before Arif could react, everything turned dark.
BOOM!
The world went silent.
When Arif slowly opened his eyes again, he was no longer on the street. Instead, he was floating in a strange dark space.
"Where… am I?" he asked in confusion.
At that moment, a strange blue screen suddenly appeared in front of him.
[System Activated]
Arif's eyes widened.
"What is this?"
The glowing screen continued.
[Welcome Host]
[Ultimate System Successfully Bound]
Arif couldn't believe what he was seeing.
A mechanical voice echoed inside his head.
"Congratulations. You have been chosen by the Ultimate System. From now on, you will receive missions, rewards, and powerful abilities."
Arif felt shocked but also excited.
"Does that mean… my life will change?"
The screen flashed again.
[First Mission Unlocked]
Survive in the New World
Suddenly, a bright light surrounded him.
The next moment—
Arif woke up in a completely different world.
