Chapter 4 : System (2)

Immediately after Jack's mental call, an interface materialized before him, displaying:Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

[Name: Alex Eswald

Age: 60

Strength: 10

Agility: 20

Stamina: 15

Defense: 10

Mana points: 5

Abilities: Soul Linkage

Harem:---

Soul Points: 0]

Jack recognized the power 'Soul Linkage' as the one Alex had used to bind their two souls. As far as he knew, this ability allowed the user to link their soul with that of another person.

[Relationships and encounters before the activation of the system are not accounted for.]

"I see," Jack replied with a tinge of disappointment. He had hoped to start with some Soul Points to experience the system's effects of enhancing his abilities, but unfortunately, it was not possible.

With nothing else to explore for now, Jack decided to dismiss the system's interface. As if by magic, the screen vanished from his sight.

After the interface disappeared, Jack looked around the unfamiliar surroundings, wondering where he was. He walked in a random direction, hoping to find distinctive signs that would help him identify the forest.

The moonlight filtered through the dense foliage above, casting eerie shadows on the forest floor.

Minutes turned into hours as Jack explored the forest, searching for any indication of his location.

As he was busy searching for the exit of the forest, he stumbled upon a small pond of water, he decided to wash himself and remove all the blood that was on him.

After he finished washing he put back his blood stained clothes and resumed his search.

Minutes turned into hours as Jack explored the forest, before finally finding an exit to the forest and wasted no time in stepping out. As he emerged from the dense foliage, he turned back to gaze at the eerie forest and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger towards Felix.

"That bastard killed me and dumped me in this forest without even bothering to give me a proper burial. Well, brace yourself, you bastard, I'm coming for you, and this same forest will be your final resting place," he thought fiercely.

It was strange how easily Jack had slipped into the role of Alex. There were no discrepancies or odd feelings when he pretended to be him; it felt natural, as if he truly had become Alex. He attributed this phenomenon to the fusion of their souls during the Soul Linkage.

Once outside the forest, Jack realized where he was and the location of his own house. The forest was not far from his home. With determination in his heart, he set off towards his house, thinking:

'it's time to start earning Soul Points.'
