"This world sucks… Everything sucks!" I muttered to myself as I grunted on my bed. I turned slightly, placing my head on my comfy pillow as I wrapped my entire body with the thick duvet which seemed to be twice my size. Covered in a blue overall, with star designs all over the pajamas I wore, I yawned and smacked my lips. Suddenly a loud ringing noise, followed by stereos of music and the jingles of a melody invaded the silent, dark room. I cringed in discomfort. "Urgh! Shit, not again!" I groaned as I tightened my face in disgust and frustration. I had shut everywhere, covered all the blinds, and even covered myself in my favorite duvet, yet the noise of celebration still managed to reach me. Glancing over at the wall, I saw a large calendar hung there, in a sorry state with several tears and marks all over. It had several strikes on it, showing the days that had passed. And the dates that were left without any marks were the days I was yet to live through. My eyes caught the nu

"I had decided to monitor you closely due to your anomaly. Plus, with the attitude and terrible luck you have, receiving this 'Gift' changes nothing for you, and you would be dead as soon as you entered into your world again."I silently listened to God's words, and while they were informative, they were very harsh."You see, Damien, everyone else had selected the best gifts. I planned on making you wait here for a while longer, so you can become entirely saturated with this place, but I can't stand you anymore!" God declared.I bit my lips as they quivered and released my tensed-up body. What was I thinking? That I could just hang out and chill with God for the rest of eternity? Of course not. Even if I had any chance, I ruined it by being my usual trashy self-pity."I really am a useless piece of shit, aren't I?" I chuckled to myself sadly, drowning in self-pity."Will you stop that! You dare to call yourself that in my presence?!" God asked in an annoyed tone.Realizing I was in th

Okay, first things first, I need to know exactly what my aids are.It's been 30 days since the 'Miracle' happened. Today is the 24th of January... Looks like I missed the New Year celebration as well... Yayy...I was in the Sacred Hall for quite some time, and even though we didn't spend much time talking to each other, I knew quite a few things about that God guy.Knowing the geezer, there was no way he would say something if he didn't mean it."Since he brought me to this world and gave me advice, it must mean that I have a chance at surviving... and I'm definitely taking it!"Currently, I possess the Divine System, a window that contains information about myself.The world is now like a game, and I'm a player. Just like in RPGs and fantasy events, I have access to a special panel that displays my current status and abilities.Every Gifted in this world possesses this System, and along with it comes the power to 'Level Up' and increase one's overall abilities.Other than that, there

It had been six days since I returned to this world, and 36 days since this madness began... My body still trembled at the thought of leaving this haven I had made for myself, but I refused to allow the fear within to shake my resolve. "Urgh… I stink…" I gagged, after taking a whiff of my odor. Being so preoccupied with learning as much as I could, I spent little time doing anything else. Other than eating and sleeping, my undivided attention was dedicated to learning as much as I could about the System and formulating strategies while preparing for the inevitable time I would leave. After six days of such an unhygienic lifestyle, I needed an intense bath. I brushed my teeth as hard as I could, making sure I got everything right since I would not be doing anything like it in a while. Also, using the water that was left in my bath, after putting enough in my [Subspace] I had a thorough shower. Now feeling refreshed and full of vigor, I picked the clothes I had decided to wear, af

With a resonating "Skrreaeeek!", the cavernous hallways of the forsaken edifice reverberated with the guttural cries of otherworldly creatures, malicious echoes snaking their way through the labyrinthine pathways that had once offered the promise of escape. But it had become glaringly clear that the maze now only led to dead-ends.An eerie realization dawned on me, chilling me to the core yet oddly sparking a determined resolve in my heart. There was no path for flight, no possibility of escaping the hellish scenario I found myself ensnared in. The only victory lay not in evasion, but in confrontation. I had to suppress these demonic creatures, overpower every single one of them lurking within the decrepit walls of this forsaken structure. It was a daunting task, to say the least, but one that could not be avoided. The only way to gain an upper hand was to anticipate their attacks, strategize against their strengths and weaknesses, for my resilience against their unexpected onslaughts
