《End Game[EG]》Ch 4:Hell Flame, Keiichi Otake
Advertisement
"How the hell do I use this?" Keiichi saw that the system had some options locked and others unlocked.
"Store? Can I buy things through the system?"
"Find out for yourself." Yato disappeared.
"W-What?! Damn you! Yato, get back here!!!" Keiichi yelled; however, Yato did not appear.
"You bastard! I... feel like I made a deal with the devil..."
*Sigh!*
"Forget it! Let's check the system." Keiichi decided to see the system functions.
[◇Store]
[◇Daily Missions]
[◇Inventory]
"...Well, this store looks interesting." Keiichi clicked on the option and a search bar appeared.
[Search items]
[Recommended items]
Keiichi opened the recommended items menu.
[Your point count is too low… looking for suitable items.]
-
[Physical training card]
A card that can improve the effectiveness of your physical training.
Requirements: physical training
Price: 100 points
Note: only works for 7 days.
-
[Physical Enhancement Card]
A card that can permanently improve your physique.
Requirements: none
Price: 500 points
Note: You are in need of this.
Keiichi pursed his lips when he saw the system note. He began to doubt whether this system wanted to help him.
"Points?..." Keiichi checked his point count and saw that he only had 500 points.
"What would be the best option?" He could buy a single fitness card or several fitness training cards.
"Well, for now, let's look at the other functions of the system." He opened his inventory. The inventory had infinite item slots, but most of them were empty. There was only a single item in your inventory.
"What is that?" Keiichi clicked on the item that was in his inventory.
[Gift from Yato]
A mysterious box. Your luck is at stake.
Description: Poor mortal, your decision to accept the system was a wise one, so take my gift. Just try not to die.

"Damn Yato! Who the hell needs your gift?!" Despite complaining, Keiichi's hand moved towards the gift slot. By clicking on the slot, the gift was opened.
"A roulette wheel?" Keiichi was confused when a roulette wheel appeared in front of him. The roulette wheel began to spin at an incredible speed. After a few seconds, she stopped.
[Congratulations, you have received a divine item]
"W-What?!" Keiichi was very surprised. He felt like he had won the lottery. He clicked to see the item, with an excited expression.
[Hell Flame]
Keiichi felt chills just hearing the name of the item.
[Starting the assimilation process]
"Huh?!" Keiichi was confused when a green flame appeared in front of him. He had a bad feeling about this. The green flame floated in the air for a few seconds, before entering Keiichi's body.
"AHHH!!"
Keiichi screamed in pain as the flame invaded his body. It felt like his entire existence was being incinerated.
"AHH! STOP! STOP!" Keiichi tried to yell at the system; however, his attempts were futile. He began to writhe on the floor, his expression pained.
"sh..it!" His voice started to get weak. The pain was so unbearable that he wanted to die right now.

30 minutes later
"Finally it's over!" Keiichi said, in a weak voice. He was feeling a lot of hatred for Yato at this point.
'That bastard!'
He got up from the ground weakly.
[Assimilation completed. Unic Skill unlocked.]
'If my suffering is not worth it, I will kill you.' Keiichi mentally cursed Yato. He hoped to at least gain a cool skill after going through this hardship.
[Unique Skill Acquired: Hell Flame]
The user is able to manipulate the Hell Flame, a divine flame created to kill gods.

Note: The user is currently very weak. If you use Hell Flame for more than 2 seconds, your body will be completely charred.
Note 2: Mastery required to handle the flame, your experience is zero.
Keiichi pursed his lips when he saw the description of his new ability. He didn't expect him to gain such an incredible skill; however, his happiness was completely destroyed by the system's grades. He had incredible ability, but he couldn't use it.
*Sigh!*
"Maybe when I get stronger, I'll be able to use it." He didn't think he could kill a god with that ability these days, because he was too weak; however, —he could manage to do that when he was on the same level as the gods.
"Hahaha, Yato, just wait! One day I'm going to hit you!" Keiichi said, with determination.
[Mandatory daily mission started]
Requirements: Survive
"Huh?!" Keiichi didn't have time to think about the system messages because he was teleported.
-
"What place is this?!" Keiichi surveyed the surroundings, his expression uneasy. All he could see was an endless desert. The sun was lighting up across the seemingly endless desert. Dried cacti were everywhere. No human being in sight.
"System… where am I?" Keiichi asked.
[59:55...59:54...59:53...]
"Huh?!" Keiichi was confused when he saw a timer appear in front of him.
"What should I do-"
Keiichi didn't finish his words, because he was completely in shock when he saw a swarm of figures tens of meters away.
"What is that?!" Keiichi focused his vision trying to see what the figures were; however, he completely regretted having seen it.
"AH… AHHHH!" Keiichi started running desperately.
Tens of meters away, hundreds of giant ants over 5 meters tall were running towards Keiichi.

A quick look at the man behind the legends known today as Dracula the first Nosferatu. ------ Author's note: I'm self-taught in English, so the grammar may suck.

NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
