Chapter 1 - 1 Alexander Ilio Apeiro [V2]

Hello everyone.

After almost 50 chapters of writing and translating. I think I have improved a little in both, so I will review the first chapters to correct them. The plot is the same, only I will try to correct the errors of grammar and parts that are don't understood.

I honestly only started writing as a hobby to pass the time, but now with almost 400 thousand views of the novel I have taken it more seriously.

I think they devour the readers who liked my story and especially those who support me in *******

It is very likely that they still contain errors, so I only ask for your patience.

It was a great experience, at the beginning I had to express my ideas on paper since being in front of the computer blocked me, so it was more work to have to pass everything written to word.

Don't worry, I already passed that stage and now I can write normally in word.

The publication of the chapter will the same, 1 every two days, but also I review one previous chapter in the next day. If you think it is a nuisance, or that I have improved my English, say it in the comments. I appreciate all your reviews.

Thanks for reading and if you wish to support SES in *******.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

28 years of life to go with the flow of society, being honest I will not say that had a bad life. My childhood and school life can be valued as regular and if you don't see it from a demanding point of view then you will say it that was good. I had no family problems and they allowed me to study a university degree to join the working world with greater skills to have more opportunities and thus be able to be independent.

My love life cannot be described as colorful, but in the end, since I was not antisocial and my appearance was presentable met several girls.

So it is not as if I can complain about how I lived, but people are complicated, the more they have then more want, that is their nature and as one I am no exception. So I did not satisfied with my life.

With all that I have said you will ask, why? ... well, my problem is that I felt as if when I could understand things someone was giving me a manual of how should I live in this world and I was bothered that if I wanted to have a good life then I had to follow it.

Yes, you have to follow the script prepared to be a person that others considered good and then keep on the right track, so I never felt free. If I regret something, it is as I told you at the beginning, was that only I went with the flow of society. It is not as if I wanted to become a murderer or an extremist person, but the same society or the world we lived in, gave me a feeling of being limited.

Now you will wonder why I am speaking to you in the past. I can answer you, just as you come to the world, suddenly and without your opinion, in the same way, you can also die ... or at least in my case is like that.

Or at least ... I think am dead, since I do not feel my body but still have my senses, and for the long time that have expected to wake up and it has not happened, the conclusion that I reached is that somehow died and only exists as a soul.

"That's right, you have died"

An imposing voice was heard suddenly, a few seconds later, when I led out of the surprise and the shock of the sudden intrusion, by instinct I ask.

"Who are you?"

"You can think of me as a superior existence, something beyond your understanding "

Oooh, it seems that I have run into someone arrogant or a person with great self-esteem ... but if I think of a superior being I can only imagine one.

"So you are a god?"

"I don't think am arrogant for answering a fact, but from your point of view you should see it that way and answering your question, the answer is no"

The voice, which now that I think about it, seemed to come from all sides and it sounded in unison from all directions, and strangely I had the feeling that before I heard it, it had finished telling me the things. But that voice surprised me by what he said.

Damn, he can read the mind, if I had known I wouldn't think rude things. Now I have to wait to see if he does not get angry and erase my existence... then, for fear that I would have bothered him or lose his patience, I continue talking.

"Are you not god? "

He told me that, but I can't help asking again, because I ran out of ideas with whom or what the voice might be. Besides, I wanted him to forget about how arrogant he was that I said before

"I will not get angry about that, you may think that I do not expect anything from you, nor can you produce on me any emotion for your current existence. My mentality prevents me that because if I did, then I would be putting you at my level or in a nearby one. And again answering you, I am not a god that you know, they are only beings that are on the top of the rank in their worlds."

... that is offensive, but I put that aside because of the shock of his words caused me.

"So what are you?"

The intrigue led me to continue questioning him, his way of expressing himself seemed like he was above the gods, but is that possible?

"It would be difficult to explain it to you with your limited understanding, but if we put it in an example, let's say that plant and animal life are primitive sentient beings. Above them would be those similar to you as humans beings who would be regular sentient beings. Above these are the gods, superior beings. Higher than these, although they are not beings, there are the laws of the world. Overcoming the previous ones, there are beings that can break the laws of the world, or even create their worlds and interact with other planes by their power, let's put them as gods of the origin or primordial. And finally, there would be my existence that can see and know everything from an infinity of worlds"

" haaa..."

That is a lot of information to digest, I don't know what to think. Thought I died and this was not a dream, but now can only accept all his dialogue as something that came out of one. My mouth could only gesture that sound ... but have no mouth ... this is how people with ghost members feel?.

"So, what wants such an exalted existence of someone like me?"

I had to keep getting information because this was the only way to could give sense and reason to the things. So that was precisely what I did. After my mind managed to calm down I do a new question.

"As you can think, your existence for me is inconsequential. You can take this as having bad luck or good luck, decide it in the future. The reason why I summon you here is simple, seeing others take individuals out of their worlds and then put them in others giving some of their power and objectives to see how things developed.

so I was curious to see what happened if I did the same action. You can think that this is a way to vent my boredom, but don't worry I won't ask you to do something like defeating the demon lord or save a world from a catastrophe.

You just live your life with the power that I give you and do wherever you want, if want Helping the demon lord to dominate the world or save only yourself during the catastrophe is your decision."

It seems that I will become one of those people who transmigrate to another world!

A part of me could not help feeling excited since one of the hobbies of my previous life was manga, anime and video games. I wasn't at the level of collecting figures of the characters, but I was quite involved in that. Now I just have to see what world he sent me to, he also said that would give me a power ... I hope it is at the level of the main characters in those stories, or maybe they are several? Well, just having one with I can have a good life would be fine.

"What world will I go to? Or can I choose? And what will my power be?"

I asked and could notice the agitation in my voice, it was inevitable that I felt excited. This would be a new beginning, a new opportunity where I could correct the regrets of my past life. I had no idea what it would be like, but what I was sure was that it wouldn't allow something to restricted me, be society or the same world in which I will arrive.

"It is a bit different from what you are thinking, since the reach to the worlds that I have are not few, if they are not infinite, almost is it.

So if I only sent you to one of these, that would be just a simple blink for me, It wouldn't fulfill the purpose for which I brought you.

You will go to a higher world as a base and from this, you will move to others"

"Ha…"

"As for your power, it is better that you develop it to your preferences and opportunities. If I granted you a greater power than you can bear at your level, your soul would burst"

Before even letting me ask the questions for the doubts I had, felt something embedded inside me, it was as if my whole being burned and then suddenly heard a second voice inside my head.

[Integrating soul evolution system in the soul of host 0% ... 3% ...]

It sounded robotic and without feeling, and from what it says it seems to be something that is joining in my soul.

"Explaining the powers you can receive and which you are fit to use would take me a life because the options are innumerable, so it is easier to integrate into another existence connected to me which would take a role similar to that of an assistant"

"Are you going to be spying to me?"

[14% ... 20% ... 27% ... 33%]

I could not help showing my distaste for how he raised the things, he calls it assistant, but how do I know that it is not something with he is monitoring me? Knowing that I would have someone or something watching me every second was not pleasant.

Ok, if I think of him as the same god of my previous world that others said that he watched men and listened to all their things to try this not bother me ... mmm ... I can't, one thing is to think about the possibility of the existence of a God watching over us and a very different one is to have spoken and to know God and find out that he will be paying attention to everything you do. I don't want to make my life a reality show.

"You don't have to worry, I won't interfere in your life, moreover, even without the system, seeing everything you do is not something I can avoid, the knowledge of all events in the infinity of worlds comes naturally to me. You can be calm, I will not judge the things that you carry out as good or bad, for me the reason for things is meaningless, I will only care about the development of your story. Just take it as if someone read your biography"

[45% ... 58% ... 66% ... 79%]

Damn, I forgot he could read minds ... well, he doesn't seem to matter my thoughts. Also, every time he speaks I feel more insignificant ... it is spiritually and mentally exhausting. If he continues like this, in the end, I will wish for my other life that he reincarnates me in plankton ...

"The system is autonomous, it will be governed by the bases that I have given it. After this I will not intervene, it is not to monitor you, it will only be you and the system from the moment you step on the upper world, even if you put yourself in death situations you will have to manage that for yourself, do not expect to I appear for save you. If you die I will consider that is for your ineptitude"

" Haa ..."

[83% ... 91% ... 97% ... 100%]

I could only express that at the end of his long speech, I really don't know what else to think about his disinterest in me as an individual. I would like to hate him, but it is not as if he has done something to me, I can say that when he speaks, does not do with the intention of offending me.

What he thinks of me is without malice and that only makes me more uncomfortable. I imagine that this is how a laboratory rat could feel, if knowing that it is not what it matters in itself, but the use that is given to it in the end.

In the time I was thinking that then the robotic voice sounded as a background in my head while speculated inside mentally.

[Beep]

[Host specifications required]

[First name…]

Ending what the system was doing, it speaks. First name? What does it mean by that? Does it want me to give a name for it?

[It is necessary for the host to enter a name to identify him as the user]

Then the voice explains... great, another that can read my thoughts ... as if I didn't have enough with one. Well, a name ... I think should start with a new one as a determination to change my regrets from my previous life. But which would be good ... a powerful or influential one that reminds me every time that heard it the goal of being like the figure that carried it ... Arturo ... Cesar ... Achilles ... David ... Alexander ... mmm. After thinking of several the last one I liked how it is heard.

"Alexander"

[Beep]

[Alexander registered]

[Now enter a last name please]

Another problem ... if I use the previous one of my world, I would feel something incongruous with a different name, also I think it should be original and not be copied, I didn't want to become a replica of some character. After a few minutes of consideration, I decided.

"My last name will be Ilios Apeiro"

[Beep]

[ Ilios Apeiro registered]

[Starting choice of physical characteristics of the new body]

[Select gender]

"Male"

I don't have to think about this, rather why it even asks? Right, I don't have a body now, but anyway it should identify that by my mentality.

[Provide a base for physical characteristics]

... I don't think that if you give someone the option of choosing to be someone with a good-looking appearance or ugly, they opt for the latter, and by "base", what does it mean? Can it be modified later? Besides, defining part by part would be c.u.mbersome ...

[Beep]

[Alexander, can you give me a mental image to capture the base form]

That helps a lot ... but now whoever I would like to look like ... personally, Sephiroth looks the coolest. Then the image of him formed in my mind.

[Beep]

[Analyzing image ... Showing the host and waiting for confirmation]

Suddenly a clear 3D image of Sephiroth appeared in my mind with more details than had imagined on my own. It was very realistic ... I don't know if wanted an appearance like this is considered vanity? I think the majority would like a handsome face if not, the plastic surgeons' offices in my world would have empty offices and they would be hungry.

But I think that being the same as Sephiroth would seem somewhat unreal and out of place every time I look at my reflection ... let's change it a bit so that I can identify with this appearance better.

"Put scarlet hair and golden eyes"

At the end of the sentence, the 3D image was modified as my orders requested.

[Beep]

[Characterization physical of the user's performed]

[Confirmation Y / N]

As if it understood that all the changes would be done the system asked. I confirm in my mind and the 3D image of a Sephiroth with intense red hair and bright golden eyes gradually faded to disappear.

[Beep]

[Set system assistant features]

[Gender: Male / Female]

"Hee?…"

Can I also modify the system? I thought would be something predetermined. Well, it's not bad to have it to my preferences.

"Female"

The last thing I want is the voice of a man who accompanies me all my life inside my head. A female presence is better ... although I want to be spared by the comments that I have a female mind trapped inside a man's body.

[Beep]

[Choose one of the following personalities:]

Friendly

Irritable

Idle

Proud

.

.

.

Tsundere

Yandere

.

.

.

Then a long list of options was deployed, some of which seemed a bit crazy to me ... in fact, there was the option for the system's personality to be crazy. Seeing it that caused me a chill. That would be suicidal ... no, suicide is also as a personality on the list, although if someone wanted to kill himself choosing it that. I don't see the reason why they bother for a second life. I wonder if this is a kind of joke? For my part will go for the safe option, I could select several and did that.

"That she be kind, understanding and guide"

[Beep]

[Choose the tone of voice]

As in the previous one, I was shown another great list, chose what seemed best to me and her voice ended up listening as someone sensual and very pleasant to the ears. I certainly wouldn't mind talking to her all day just to enjoy her melodious voice.

[Beep]

[Implementing ... initial parameters completed]

[Please wait until arrival in the upper world to execute the corresponding commands]

"It seems to be over, then if there is nothing else I will send you to begin your journey through the new world that awaits you"

The first voice I heard in this place suddenly sounded again. I had completely forgotten from him because was concentrated on the system configuration process.

"Then this should be the farewell since we will not see each other again can I know the name of the one who gave me this opportunity?"

"... Cross"

With those words my conscience began to darken and losing my senses, it was a little scary as I was only an astral form, it seemed as if I was slowly disappearing.

Even with fear I was anxious for this new life that was granted me, wanted to wake up quickly to start this trip and enjoy completely without leaving a regret again when my last moment arrived. I intended to die this time with a satisfied smile for everything I did. And maybe, just maybe, meet Cross again and ask if he found my life interesting.

"I hope your story is not boring and you let me down Alexander Ilios Apeiro"
