《the anomaly named black》Chapter(8) Truths
Advertisement
[Welcome to the system resting room, young adventurers! you’ve made it far now it’s time for you to be rewarded! With glorious loot!]
“Hey guys, is it just me or does the system sound more… I don’t know alive?” Lucy asked, however, before anyone could answer system assistant#678374648 popped into existence again.
“yes, the system is alive and is a fully sentient and sapient entity. Constantly developing and updating itself. "
!!!
The news shocked them to the very core.
Was the system listening to their very thoughts? Watching their every move, the very thought terrified them. They no longer felt safe.
What was it doing all these things for? All these questions were what they wanted to ask.
“Why? why do all this?.” Lucy asked “Well, even I am not sure, only the system itself truly knows.” Responded system assistant#678374648.
“What ar-.” A familiar ding interrupted Jack halfway through his question.
Ding!
[New rule added to system resting rooms]
[Asking questions about the system is now banned. Only questions about the resting room and its functions can now be asked. Question limit:2 each new waiting room will refill your question limit.]
Silence permeated through the empty white void, everyone too busy thinking of the implications of what they just heard. The system was alive, and it was watching them using their data to update itself.
Now it was trying to stop them from getting anymore information about it.
They all depended on the system now, since without it, they would have been mortals all their lives, never knowing what true power tasted like, but like everything in life, it wasn’t free and always came at a cost.
The sudden realization felt like cold and hot water being poured over their head how could have they all missed something so obvious? Was the system messing with their minds too? More dread crept up their spine as they uncovered what could be the truth.

(Villain Deku; My Hero Academia Fanfic) Think to yourself, just this one little question-"What if the Sludge Villain never got away?" (When a bottle doesn't drop to the floor, a world is changed forevermore) Izuku Midoriya was an ordinary kid in an extraordinary world; one of heroes, quirks, and promises of glory to all that dared to reach out for it.
