The monster, enraged, lunges forward and everything went black.
*TSK*
Sounds of a glass shattering explodes into view.
Static. Symbols. A flood of corrupted data.

Then, a deafening silence.
A message burned into the void.
YOU HAVE DIED
Alvarez is floating, floating in an endless, formless space. A space with nothing but pure darkness.
Alvarez:
W-What?
Where am i..?
His voice echoed back at him, swallowed into the distance like it wasn't even his.
There was no ground.
No direction.
No time.
It's as if his senses were disabled.
He floated, weightless, like a discarded thought in a forgotten dream.
Alvarez:
Huhh?..
A sensation of warmth. Then cold.
Then... awareness.
Alvarez:
What's that noise?
He began to hear something that he was not supposed to.
He began to be aware of—
Alvarez:
...I can hear you.
*Scoffs*
He looked around. There was nothing. But he felt it. He heard it. Something was there, something beyond comprehension. Watching. Listening. Talking.
Before he could utter another word, new messages began to appear right Infront of his eyes as the System activated once more...
The [Narration] is amused by your feat. |
Alvarez:
Huh??
You have heard the voice of a being not meant to be heard.
The conditions for the [Hidden Mission] has been met.
Alvarez:
Hidden mission? What's going on
You have obtained an [Inconceivable Achievement].
Alvarez:
What the hell?
You have acquired something that never existed.
Alvarez:
What the hell is this?!
Answer me whoever you are!!
What the fuck are you talking about!!!
He shouted into the void, his voice now shaking. Yet no one answered.
No one will.
...
...
I will not.
The System offered him an option.
Would you like to become [The Creator of Your Story]?
{Yes} {No}
Alvarez:
The creator of my story?
As he stared at the glowing choices hovering before him, he clenched his fists. The surreal weightlessness around him suddenly felt like it had gravity. Like the world was giving him something no one ever had before.
Alvarez:
All my life… I just followed along. I gave up. I watched chances die because I was too afraid to take them.
His regrets had grew on him.
Alvarez:
I was stuck. Trapped. A cog in someone else's machine. But not this time.
He has made up his mind.
His hand slowly reaches toward the glowing { Yes }.
Alvarez:
If this is a dream… a lie… I don't care. I'll make it real. I'll make it mine.
He tapped { Yes }.
*CRACK*
The void shattered.
*BOOM—
Light exploded from within him.
And the world began to rebuild.
