A man in his twenties stared at the television while drinking a bottle of alcohol.
He has an ordinary dark hair, his eyes, which were supposed to be bright because of its color, were instead devoid of any emotions.
His golden-brown eyes looked deeply vacant.
If not for their golden hue, his eyes would resemble that of a black hole.
With unrestrained behavior, he took a sip from the bottle of alcohol, while muttering to himself.
So, they already reached that far in their life...?
On the television, a youthful and handsome man appeared—his looks were comparable to those of top-tier models.
This person was Ryven's classmate. The one who had accompanied most of his unpleasant memories in high school.
Beside him stood several people who had also tormented him in his youth.
This is ridiculous!
How could they be so successful in life when all they ever did was cheat in school and rely on their family's wealth?
Seeing them being broadcasted, having millions of fans, a surge of deep anger stirred within his heart.
He took a deep breath, trying compose himself. But as he compared his life to their life, he realized just how unfair the world truly was.
Haaa... Such a pathetic life I have...
At this point should I just k*ll myself?
For a moment, that thought surfaced in his mind. Unlike them, his family was a complete scumbags.
At a very young age, he was abused and beaten almost to death. Even after escaping them, school wasn't any better because of those people in the television.
He was bullied and humiliated, both physically and mentally.
Reminiscing about his past, he turned off the television to stable his emotions.
After turning it off, he looked at himself in a mirror.
He was a little overweight, his face looked miserable, and his dark hair was greasy and messy.
As he stared at himself in the mirror, a black panel suddenly manifested out of nowhere.
[Processing...]
[The Origin of Life: Hello everyone!]
[The Origin of Life: I will skip the introduction, people of Earth. You have five minutes to prepare for what is about to come.]
At that moment, everyone, including Ryven, was suddenly interrupted by the black panel.
The voice was high-pitched, making it sound strange.
Ryven was stunned beyond words. He rubbed his temples, trying to remain calm as much as possible.
What the f*ck is it now?
He muttered, sounding extremely depressed.
Quickly five minutes passed.
[The Origin of Life: I have given you enough time to prepare yourselves. Do not be confused, what I'm about to do is an act of salvation.]
[The Origin of Life: That is all you need to know. And now all of you wil be transported to the Seize World!]
As it spoke, almost every people in earth shivered. After all, the tone was filled with madness, it was as if the entity itself had already been consumed by insanity.
Immediately as expected, everyone fell into chaos.
Outside Ryven's room, he could hear some people screaming in disbelief.
However, unlike them, Ryven was rather expressionless or rather he was trying to remain expressionless.
Seconds passed. Then a golden flash erupted, in that instant, he was gone, completely erased from where he stood, along with every other human on Earth.
For the first time, Ryven felt deep serenity. Opening his eyes, he saw countless stars, galaxies, and meteorites. Around him were countless tiny lights.
He blinked, realizing that the tiny lights were just like him, he was also a tiny light.
Every people from earth was now being transmigrated into another world.
At that moment, everyone felt that their language barrier was removed.
[The Origin of Life: Everyone, just wait patiently. After all each person will be teleported into a civilization.]
[The Origin of Life: There are currently seven main civilizations...]
As the black panel said that, a list of names where they would be teleported was revealed.
[Aether Dominion Civilization, Blue Azure Civilization, Dragon Ascendancy Civilization, Obsidian Dark Civilization, Trinity Eternal Civilization, Spirit Heaven Civilization, Butterfly Valley Civilization.]
[The Origin of Life: It depends on luck where you will be teleported. The rest will be explained by the people there. One last piece of advice, don't go outside the civilization unless you have awakened your system!]
With that said, everyone saw another flash of light.
They eventually found themselves separated, the once eight billion people was divided in the seven civilizations.
The billion of people found themselves in an advanced civilization with towering gray walls and a protective array above the sky.
The sky was not what they expected. It was grey, and the light the sun radiated was barely visible.
"Good… Good. The prophecy has come true."
"My intuition confirms it… A lot of people will awaken an S-Class Rank system. Some may even awaken SS-Class Rank system."
An old man said with excitement. He wore a robe and had the appearance of an experienced expert.
His long silver hair and flowing silver beard gave the impression of deep wisdom and vast experience.
Behind the old man stood a perfectly aligned group of people wearing blue uniforms, each marked with a blue wing emblem at the center as their symbol.
Billions of people, young and old, stood dumbstruck.
Not long after, a young man took the initiative to speak. He had raven-black hair, blue eyes, and a handsome appearance with a chiseled jaw and high nose bridge.
It was Ryven's classmate, Lukas Archidale, who had recently become a celebrity.
"To be blunt, can I ask what we're doing here and where we are? We people from Earth were teleported here without our consent."
"We should have the rights to know what's happening."
At his words, the one billion people behind him nodded in agreement.
Seeing Lukas take the initiative to speak, his fans couldn't help but admire him even more, while the people who didn't know him silently acknowledged him.
"Hmm..." The old man paused while stroking his long beard.
"You people are the chosen ones. According to the prophecy, a billion people will arrive in this area and help us defeat the abominations here."
"Currently, outside this wall are terrifying abominations beyond our comprehension."
"We will nurture all of you, and I promise to treat you properly. And as payment help us defeat those abominations, that is also including you will obey our every command."
Upon hearing that, everyone had mixed emotions. Some were angry about being transmigrated without their consent.
Especially the people who got separated with their love ones.
However most people were excited.
"Wait... doesn't that mean we'll get superpowers if we awakened our system?!"
"Yes, I've read this kind of fantasy novel before. Unlocking a system means will give you superpowers!"
At once almost everyone was excited.
However, Lukas's mind was elsewhere.
Placing his hand on his chin. After a few seconds, he asked another question.
"What is the name of this civilization?"
The old man smiled and simply answered.
"Blue Azure Civilization."
"Ah, isn't that one of the civilizations that The Origin of Life mentioned?"
"You're right... By the looks of it, we really got split into the seven civilizations. There should be around eight billion of us."
"Now I'm sure that, we only have about a billion people here..."
The billion people looked around once more.
They seemed to be in an arena, and there was a strange circle beneath their feet.
Looking above, there were countless transparent buildings and skyscrapers, along with advanced technology like flying cars and drones monitoring everything.
The territory occupied by the Blue Azure Civilization was immense, spanning an area twice the size of the United States.
But not everyone had the luxury of proper treatment. It was also divided in half, and the other half was the outskirts where more than five million people lived.
The old man meanwhile, suddenly spoke in a serious manner.
"Now, I'll get to the serious matter..."
"Our civilization is lacking people. In total, only about twenty-five million people manages everything here, which is very low."
"But now, as the prophecy said, you people will become our salvation amidst this calamity."
Listening to his words, almost everyone furrowed their brows.
The Origin of Life had warned them not to go outside. Thinking about what was beyond the wall, gave them a deep sense of fear.
...
Boom!
In a foggy forest, a man fell, creating a loud resounding sound.
What the?!
Ryven saw himself in a crater. A mysterious dark glow emitted from his body, protecting his body from the crash.
He exhaled in relief, realizing that he didn't sustain any injury from the crash. However his face abruptly went pale, after realizing he was alone in this unknown place.
Sh*t...
He observed the forest with thick fog making it hard for him to see properly. At that moment, he saw a tall figure about four meters tall. It had three heads and four arms.
His heart sank, and dread washed over him.
This is ridiculous! Shouldn't there be a civilization that will protect me?!
He couldn't see the figure fully, but he could feel its malicious intent.
Before it could approach closer, a dark figure emerged besides it. After that, he saw the mysterious abomination suddenly disappeared.
Ryven gulped. His scalp tingled, and goosebumps spread across his body.
Haaa... I'm finally going to f*cking die here, aren't I...?
Ryven closed his eyes, hoping for a painless death. But before any abomination could attack.
Time suddenly paused.
He heard an unknown entity speak.
"What a pitiful life. It seemed that even The Origin of Life doesn't care about you... I really couldn't stand it anymore."
"In your first life… And even in your tenth, you constantly suffered. Your fortune is so bad that I couldn't help but think that fate itself seems to hate you."
"But don't worry, there's a saying. Misfortune comes with fortune."
