Hi.
My name is Obed. But you can call me "Ob" for short. I grew up in Detroit and then moved to Texas where I'm staying for now. Earth had a war against aliens and Earth was defeated. Because of this, my parents were part of the war and eventually died. Now we must fight for Earth, protect Earth and defeat those aliens. Let's rewind to how I had my inner Ability System.
Well, I went to school in Nevada elementary. I was being bullied by my classmates. While in school, I often visited the library to check out new novels or comics to read. Reading was like my food and I can't do anything without reading. Let's continue, shall we? As I was glancing through all the books, I found a book which was old like in the 18's hundreds. But before I had to open the book, there was an inscription on it saying "Ye who gets this book gets everything."
Obed's mind went spinning as he read the inscription over and over again. He didn't understand what the inscription meant. Because of this, he decided to take the book home to get info about the book. He decided not to show it to the librarian or his friends. It was getting dark and Obed had to dash to his apartment so that he can get time for the book. Just as he reached his apartment and closed the door, he heard strange noises coming from somewhere but couldn't get where they were coming from.
Soon, the noise started to shout louder causing Obed to be afraid. Obed searched his apartment and outside to see if he would find where the noise was coming from but to no avail. Finally, he remembered the book he was carrying in his bag pack.
As he opened his bag pack he heard the strange noise again and this time, from his bag pack. First, he was afraid and this time took no chance. He began to unpack all the things out of the bag except the mystery book. Soon the noise died down and started. That's was when Obed realized that the noise was coming from the book he took in the library today. As he removed the book from the bag, the book started to talk and said, at last, you have released me. Obed was shocked to see a book talking and also replied, I don't know what you are talking about in the book.
The book laughed out loud even his next-door neighbor could hear it. "Keep it down Obed," says a girl next door. "Sorry," says Obed. The book gives Obed his name as the system and that he can control people's behavior, thinking, and what you can think of. Suddenly Obed had an idea and tried to test the system to see if it was indeed telling the truth. Obed then asked the system, system, what I'm thinking if at this moment? The system then laughed at Obed and said, "you are really funny." You are thinking about your parents and how you wish they were here. Indeed, the system was right. Obed was indeed thinking about his parents and how he wished they were in his presence. The system then opened the book and told Obed to read all the pages in it and after he is done he should bear it(the system). Obed was shocked and asked the system, why should I burn you. I don't burn books. But the system replied, "if you burn me, I'll be inside you and no one will know that." After the system had said that, Obed then took the book and read it to the last page. He even memorized every part of the book. After he finished reading he burnt the book and suddenly, the room became pitch black and Obed could see the system's soul coming out of the book and entering into Obed's body. After this, the room was returned to its normal state and Obed fell to the ground.
Obed had been on the ground for 30 minutes after the book soul entered his body. After a few minutes, Obed rose to his feet and began to talk to himself, "What the hell happened?" After saying that to himself, the system which was now in Obed's body began to speak to him. I'm in you now, said the system. Now for your first achievementGained knowledge about the book, 1 expLevel 1 user.Obed was shocked to see his system telling him about this achievement. After a while, the system also told Obed that he had a new ability."Ability," said Obed. "What kind of ability do I have then," he continued. Just as Obed finished his sentence, his whole body started to melt as if he was an ice cube that had been put in the sun. Obed started shouting to the system to ask him what is happening but the system didn't mind Obed. Two minutes later, Obed had melted and was now a liquid and could move under doors and also hid. Obed was shocked to see himself turn into a liqu
The cock crowed the next morning and the system worked Obed up with a messageTake two fried eggs and teaPs: don't take bread until I tell you to do soObed didn't understand why the system told him not to take the bread because Obed cannot have tea without taking in bread. Obed did as the system said and took the tea with two fried eggs. Obed checked the time and it was past six. Obed knew he was getting late for school. Rushed to the school one minute early before the school gate had to be closed. When Obed entered the class, he sat at his sitting position which was in front. Obed was the shortest in his class and that was the reason why bullies always worry him. Today, Obed had a free period because the teachers had a meeting with the principal. Obed still had a lot of questions to ask his system. As soon as he was about to ask, his friend Joyce came over to see him. Joyce liked Obed because he was brilliant and hardworking but she could not express her feel
Obed and Joyce didn't know what happened because they have been kidnapped by a young boy and girl. Obed and Joyce's faces were covered in a transparent bag so that they can be able to have at least some air to breathe. After 3 hours of driving, they reached their destination. The two young people got off the van and opened the back boot of the van. Obed and Joyce were removed from the van and sent to a room. As soon as they were sent to the room, they were unmasked by the young people, and there stood the young people and three teachers. The teachers now ordered the two people who were kidnapped to leave the room and left with their response, "Yes Sir." The teachers saw Obed and Joyce apologized for the kidnapping and said to them that this wasn't a kidnapping."It's like we've entered a new school I suppose," Joyce said to Obed. Obed was furious and since he entered the school not because his system had not spoken since the kidnapping but was furious by how the young boy gra
Nate called Obed and Joyce over and as they came towards Nate, he began with dos and don't of the school. After a 4 minutes talk, off they went. As soon they started walking, Obed's system told him that Nate had an ability of time and that he could forward time or reverse time but only in an emergency. Obed also asked his system what ability Joyce has but his system replied by saying; "I don't know her ability but very soon you would find out." Having heard this, it gave Obed more faith and hope that he may find out Joyce's ability. Nate continued to show Obed and Joyce the school cafeteria, which was like a half stadium. Nate also showed them the classroom and in the classroom, they were no boards nor projectors so Obed was thinking about how the teacher is going to teach the students. Nate also showed them the dormitory for both boys and girls. He also showed them the huge auditorium and the training room.When they went outside the school, the serene environment was much n
As Obed headed for the training room, his system told him he would be using only his liquid ability. This meant that Obed had a lot of ability to use. Obed questioned his system whether he had other abilities. The system replied by saying yes but has been locked unless he kills any alien-like creature or defeats an opponent in a fight before one of the abilities can be unlocked. Obed was surprised to hear that he had to kill an alien before unlocking an ability. In the training room, Ben decided to call the students in the group one after the other. "With each training you do you get a level," says Ben.The first to be called upon was Michael. Micheal's ability was the fire. Ben began to smile as he saw Michael shoot out fire from his palms. He then brought out an alien-like creature which was a robot and was controlled by Ben. As Ben turned all the robots, Micheal started to fire some shots at the controlled alien but Ben had other ideas. He designed the controlled alien jus
The next morning, when Obed woke up, he could see brand new clothes on his bed with an indication, from Pearl. The clothes were packaged in a wrapper. The first wrapper was his school attire whiles the second wrapper was his outings. Obed decided to wear the school attire to class today so he ironed his uniform and put them on to head for class. But first, everyone had 30 minutes to look for snacks to eat before heading to their respective classrooms. This was different from his former school because they usually sit in class and learn before the siren rings for the break. Students decided to go to the cafeteria to be served. Some students were served hamburgers and Pepsi while others used their money to buy food for themselves. Obed decided to take the hamburger and Pepsi since he didn't have money on him. As he took the food, he noticed Michael and Chris talking at the other end of the table. Before Obed could take a step to head to their table, a familiar voice was heard and it s
Michael, shouted Obed as he was coming closer to him. Obed, said Michael as a grin of smile of seen across his face. But before Obed had to question Michael's ability, Obed thanked Michael for giving him a place to sleep. "No problem, that's what mates are for," said Michael. He brought out his as a sign to handshake towards Obed and Obed also brought his fist out 🤜🤛 Obed asked Michael were he was heading towards and he said dorm just to take a nap. After this Michael, looked on Obed's face and could see that something bwws bothering Obed's mind so he then asked Obed, Hey, is something wrong? I can see you wanna ask me something. At first, Obed said, "No but he then suddenly changed his mind and said I wanted to know how you got your ability." At first, Michael didn't want to tell Obed but he remembered that they were in the same dorm and he had told Chris so at least he should tell Obed a little not all. Michael then agreed to tell
After both girls talked about Chris's situation they didn't know the time that Chris left because he was with Michael and Obed. Soon, the boys got up from the bed, and as they were setting off, as usual Florence held Obed by his hand and Joyce went to Michael and also held him by the hand. Joyce wanted to hold Obed by the hand too but she didn't want to show her feelings for Obed at this very instinct. As they headed out of the dorm, Obed then asked Florence this question, "where did they see Chris?". Florence then answered, "at the school park outside the school premises."They all ran fast as if they were being chased by a cheetah. When they reached the park, Joyce was panting heavily. Obed then noticed Chris on the ground who was severely beaten by a group of boys. A message from Obed's system started beeping and Obed had to check the message. As he opened the message, it read;Beat the leader to acquire new ability, a charm, inspection skills, +1 strength, and exp.
After Obed had finished his fight and was now leaving, Barns, a third-year student with earth and fire ability decided to go one on one with Life Sucker. Obed looked at Barns with a smile and accepted his challenge. Obed and burns stepped into the control game room and entered their keys. Soon, both had access to their characters and they waited for the game to start the countdown."3,2,1 Fight," said the machine. Obed was the first to attack. Barns had a thinking ability and could know which direction Obed was to throw his first punch. Barns managed to dodge and even blocked some of his punches. Now it was Barns's turn. Barns threw a couple of punches at Obed and it hit him on the face and the stomach. His punches are fast as lighting, said Obed. I can't block these. Obed's life was reduced drastically. I need to do something quickly. Obed then went back a little and activated his liquid ability. Obed now went beneath Barns and gave him a low blow. Obed punched Barns so hard
After the kissing, the crew decided to go and get some air so they decide to sit outside. Florence placed her head on Obed's shoulder as they were going out. Soon, they found a perfect spot to rest. They all lay on the grass and looked at the stars. "The stars are many," said Linda. "Yeah, as many as the students and aliens combined," said Obed. Then, a shooting star came to pass by. "A shooting star makes a wish," said Michael. "I wish to be the best student in the school," said Chris. "I wish to get more ability," said Michael, Florence, and Joyce. "I wish that we kill the demon king and kill the aliens to prevent the human race from losing again," said Obed. "That's a good wish Obed, well done," said Michael. As they were looking at the stats for long, Linda and Florence yawned and Obed could see that the girls were feeling sleepy. Obed then ordered his crew to return to their dormitories because tomorrow he would be heading for the VR room. The reason why Obed wanted to go to th
"So Obed, who do u want it to go with on prom night," said Linda. "Alright, I select...," said Obed as Linda began to bite her nails, Joyce covered her face with her hand and Florence started to pray. "Alright, said Obed, I choose Florence," said Obed. Florence began to smile and hugged Obed. "Well, he choose the right person," said Joyce. "When the day comes for him to choose his girlfriend, he'll pick me or what do u say Obed," asked Joyce. Obed winked at Joyce and smiled. Next was Joyce. Joyce selected Michael whiles Linda had to select Chris. "Well, everyone gotten his/her share," said Florence.Well, the time is 4:34 pm. "The prom starts at 20:00 and doesn't forget to put on your prom dresses," said Linda. Linda, Florence, and Joyce left the male dormitory and returned to their rooms. "We need to buy some tuxedos and trousers and shoes," said Michael. Obed remembered his Uncle had sent him money some months ago. I could use that money to buy some tuxedos and shoes
Obed suddenly Obed his eyes and noticed that Joyce and Florence were lying by him on each side. "You're awake," said Florence. "Yep," Obed said with a smile. Michael and Chris were also in the dormitory waiting for Obed to wake. "What a show you presented out there Obed," said Michael. "What's with the electric power or something," said Chris. Never seen some before in my life. As soon as Chris said the electric power, something pricked Obed's mind that he drank the birds blood and now had a demonic power. Now is left with how to use it, thought Obed.Obed rose from the bed and sat down so as Florence and Joyce. Obed told his crew, "I think the bird is brought by someone to check on us or what do you guys think." "I don't know Obed," said Linda. "Why would someone in the first place bring a medium size bird to attack the students," asked Michael. "But you could see what it could do," said Obed. "It had a power that could control the students, Obed continued. "Yeah," sai
Before Joyce had shouted Obed's name, Obed had been already informed that the bird will arrive so he must inform the students. "Now look at this, after I've informed you all, still you students decided not to hear my warning," said Obed. Just look, everyone is been gotten by the bird with its demonic power. Just as Obed was talking to himself, he heard Joyce's voice again, Obed, help us." Obed then looked at Joyce and his crew and looked at the bird. "It looks like you guys are not much for the bird," said Obed.Obed then jumped towards the bird area. As soon as the bird saw Obed, it turned away from the students and faced Obed. The bird raised its claws ready to pounce it on Obed. Obed immediately activated his liquid ability and was nowhere to be found. The bird searched everywhere to see where Obed was but there was no avail. Obed started to claim on the back of the bird and when he finished climbing, he then deactivated his liquid ability. Obed started to punch the bi
The next morning, Obed's system woke him up with a good morning tone. When Obed woke, he noticed that Michael and Chris were still in their bed sleeping. Wood, Obed's pet was still sleeping. Obed woke Michael and Chris up for them to take a shower. Michael and Chris got up from their beds and fully stretched themselves. They both went for their sponge and towel and they all headed for the bathroom. As they were about to step out of the dormitory, Wood woke up and wanted to follow Obed because that was his master. Obed told asked Wood to stay in the dormitory. Wood followed Obed's orders and stayed in the room. The boys then headed to the bathroom.When they reached the bathroom, the boys then went to take a shower. After they finished bathing they went to the dormitory to get dressed for school. Obed realized his uniform was torn when he was on the red planet. Obed had a spare uniform and put it on.When the boys finished, Obed took Wood with him and placed him
"I don't believe it," said Florence. "I thought you were dead," she continued. "I didn't die but I went to another place beneath," said Obed. "But don't worry, I'll tell you the rest of the story in the dormitory," said Obed. Soon the school was in complete shock to see the life sucker return. Miss Pearl went to call Sir Ben and Nate and even Gloria. As soon as the teachers and the school nurse came, they were shocked at what they saw. "Is that what I'm seeing," said Sir Nate. "I taught he was dead," said Gloria. "Is a ghost," said, Sir Ben.Soon, Obed and Linda went to pass through and went towards Miss Pearl. Miss Pearl, can you please add this girl to the school list and also be part of our group, said Obed. Of course, said Miss Pearl. Obed then called out Linda to show her around the school. Eventually, the school returned normal and all the weepings came to a stop. After 15 minutes of showing her around the school, he decided to take her to his dormitory. When Obed arrived
Obed and Linda were in the portal after being transported from the red planet. They were known on their way to Panster school on Earth. In the portal, Obed asked Linda how many minute or hours it would take them to reach Earth. Linda calculated on the portal and said, "it will take us seventeen (17) hours to reach the planet Earth." Obed then sat in the portal as he heard the words that came out of Miss Pearl's mouth.Meanwhile, on Earth, today was a good day. Florence, Joyce, and Michael managed to go to the cafeteria to eat. It's been one month since Obed's death and his crew hadn't been to the cafeteria. As they went to the cafeteria, they got themselves some yogurt and pie. They all sat at one table and started to eat. After 4 minutes, they all finished eating and headed back to their respective classrooms. Today Florence went alone unlike the other days wherever she would be walking with Obed and holding hands.As Florence entered the classroom, everyone was in
After 2 days of staying in this unknown place, Obed was looking forward to heading back to school. After meeting Linda on the same planet who has been there for the past 5 months. The clock seemed to be ticking by and Linda and Obed were looking for ways to fix the portal and get back to Earth.I have a portal but it's not working properly so it needs fixing, said Linda. "This might take a long time probably one month," she continued. Obed didn't care whether it took him a month, year, or decades for them to fix the portal. What he was thinking at this moment was how to go to school. After Linda had said this, she also added, "we will need an orb that would be used as the power to take us back to Earth."So, before they started to fix the portal, Obed decided to check Linda's info. As soon as Obed checked his system, it then showed that Linda had no info on her ability. After seeing this, he then went to Linda to ask if they can start with the fixing. "Sure, let's begin,"
