TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Separated
The moment Trevor stepped through the doorway, the ground trembled. A deafening crack split the air, and the stone floor beneath him gave way."Trevor!" Lyra’s shout echoed as he fell, tumbling into the darkness below.“Lyra!” he yelled, reaching out, but his fingers grasped only empty air.The fall ended abruptly with a hard landing on cold stone. Trevor groaned, rolling onto his side. His sword clattered nearby, and he grabbed it, scrambling to his feet. Above him, the ceiling had sealed itself, cutting off any sign of Lyra or the robed man.“Well, this is new,” Trevor muttered, glancing around. The chamber was vast and eerily silent, illuminated by a faint blue light emanating from the walls.A voice broke the stillness, deep and disembodied. “Separated by the tides of fate. Only those who prove their strength can reunite.”“Great,” Trevor said, gripping his sword. “Another cryptic trial. Why can’t these just be quizzes? I’m great at guessing.”As if in answer, the ground ahead of
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Another life
The portal spat them out into a new chamber—a quiet one for a change. The air was warm, the walls lined with softly glowing crystals. For the first time in what felt like hours, nothing was trying to kill them.Trevor collapsed onto the floor, his sword clattering beside him. “Okay, I’m officially done. Someone else can save the world. I’m retiring.”Lyra smirked, leaning against her staff as she sat next to him. “You don’t retire from being chosen. That’s kind of the whole point of being chosen.”Trevor sighed dramatically. “Great. So I’m stuck here forever. Guess I better start carving my initials into the wall.”They sat in silence for a moment, catching their breath. Then Lyra glanced at him. “Do you ever think about... home?”Trevor blinked, then gave her a sideways look. “Home? Like, the good old ‘normal world’ where we weren’t constantly dodging death? Yeah, I think about it. All the time.”“What did you do?” Lyra asked, her tone curious. “Before all of this?”Trevor hesitated,
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Fractured path
The calm didn’t last long.Trevor and Lyra barely had time to catch their breath before the chamber began to shift. The glowing crystals dimmed, replaced by jagged, dark spikes that sprouted from the walls. The warmth in the air vanished, replaced by an icy chill.“Why can’t we ever get five minutes of peace?” Trevor groaned, grabbing his sword.Lyra stood, her staff glowing faintly. “Because this place hates us. Obviously.”A low rumble echoed through the chamber, and the floor beneath them cracked. Trevor and Lyra jumped apart just as a massive rift split the ground between them.“Okay, seriously?!” Trevor shouted.The rift widened, and before either of them could react, the floor under Trevor gave way completely. He barely had time to yell before he plummeted into the darkness below.“Trevor!” Lyra screamed, running to the edge of the chasm. She knelt, peering into the void, but there was no sign of him.The chamber shook again, forcing her to back away. The dark spikes closed in,
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Truths
Trevor and Lyra stood side by side, staring into the dark cavern. The roar from deep below still echoed, sending chills down their spines."Okay," Trevor said, gripping his sword tightly. "That sound? Definitely not something friendly."Lyra nodded, her staff glowing faintly in the dim light. "We need to move. Whatever made that noise will be here soon."They started walking along the rocky ledge, the faint glow of Lyra’s staff lighting their way. The air was damp and cold, and every sound seemed to echo endlessly."Do you think there’s even a way out of this place?" Trevor asked after a while."There has to be," Lyra replied. "We’ve made it this far, haven’t we?"Trevor gave her a weak smile. "Yeah, but I’m starting to think this system world just enjoys messing with us. Like, ‘Oh, you survived monsters? How about falling into a creepy cave next?’"Lyra chuckled softly. "You might be right. This place does seem like it has a cruel sense of humor."They walked in silence for a few min
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES unknown
Trevor and Lyra trudged forward, the glow of her staff the only light cutting through the darkness of the cavern. The battle with the beast had left them exhausted, but the eerie silence that followed kept them alert.“Do you think that thing was the big bad of this place?” Trevor asked, breaking the silence.Lyra shook her head. “If I’ve learned anything about this world, it’s that there’s always something worse waiting around the corner.”Trevor groaned. “Fantastic. Love the optimism.”They walked on in silence until the tunnel began to widen. The air grew warmer, and the faint hum of energy buzzed around them. Ahead, a soft, golden light glimmered, spilling out from another chamber.Trevor squinted. “Do you see that? Please tell me it’s not another trap.”“Only one way to find out,” Lyra said, stepping forward cautiously.As they entered the chamber, they both stopped in their tracks. The room was massive, its ceiling arching high above them. The walls shimmered like polished glass
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Echoes of the system
The tunnel beyond the orb chamber was eerily quiet, the faint golden glow behind them fading with each step. Trevor carried his sword loosely at his side, eyes darting to every shadow. Lyra walked beside him, her staff dim but ready to ignite at a moment's notice."Okay," Trevor said after a while, breaking the silence. "What’s next on this system’s list of ‘fun’ activities? More monsters? A lava pit? Maybe a riddle we have to solve while getting shot at?"Lyra smiled faintly. "Honestly, at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was all three."Trevor groaned. "I was joking. You know that, right? Jokes are supposed to stay jokes."The tunnel began to widen again, opening into a smaller chamber with a smooth, reflective floor. In the center, a circular platform shimmered with faint blue light.Lyra approached cautiously, her eyes narrowing. "This looks like a transport pad. A shortcut, maybe?"Trevor tilted his head. "Shortcut to where? Because if it’s back to the real world, I’m al
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Path
The glowing path stretched ahead like a ribbon of light, winding through the strange, alien landscape. Trevor and Lyra walked in silence for a while, the tension between them thick but unspoken.Trevor finally broke the quiet. “You know, for a mystical system guide, that light-being wasn’t very... specific. ‘Follow the path,’ it said. ‘Reach the Core Nexus,’ it said. Could’ve thrown in a map or maybe a survival kit.”Lyra glanced at him, her expression weary but amused. “Would you really trust a map from something that called us anomalies?”Trevor grinned. “Fair point. It’d probably lead us straight into another monster nest.”The path ahead began to shift, splitting into two glowing trails. One veered left, toward a dense, fog-covered forest. The other led right, into a jagged canyon lit by flickering blue flames.“Well, that’s convenient,” Trevor said, stopping at the fork. “Two paths, zero clues. What do you think? Creepy forest or fiery death canyon?”Lyra studied the two trails,
TREVOR KING AND SYSTEM MISADVENTURES Nexus awaits
Trevor stumbled onto the clearing first, his boots crunching on the cracked, dry earth. The canyon’s oppressive heat had left him soaked in sweat, but his grip on his sword was steady. He scanned the horizon, relieved to see no more glowing-eyed monstrosities waiting for him.“Lyra!” he called out, his voice echoing.A faint rustling drew his attention. Moments later, Lyra emerged from the dense fog on the other side of the clearing. She looked equally battered, her staff dim and her cloak torn in a few places.“Took you long enough,” Trevor said with a grin. “I was starting to think I’d have to go back and rescue you.”Lyra raised an eyebrow, leaning on her staff. “Rescue me? You? What happened in your part of the world? Did you fight... I don’t know... a lava wolf or something?”Trevor froze. “Wait, how did you know that?”Lyra’s eyes widened. “Seriously? You fought a lava wolf?”“Yeah,” Trevor said, shrugging. “No big deal. Just a giant wolf made of molten rock trying to barbecue m

Deja Vu
Trevor forced himself to step back from the café.Every instinct screamed at him to walk up to Lyra, shake her, demand answers. But the last time he had tried, the system had glitched and thrown him into darkness.This wasn’t just a reset.It was a test.If the system had rewound time, then he needed to play along—to see if it would make him relive everything exactly the same way, or if he could change something.His phone buzzed.Boss: Yo, we’re short on drivers today. You can pick up extra shifts?Trevor exhaled sharply. Same message. Same day.So the loop wasn’t just in his head.Trevor turned away from the café and headed for his bike. If the system wanted to mess with him, fine. But he wasn’t going to sit back and wait for it to break him.He had work to do. he has to earn money.The city was already bustling as Trevor wove through traffic. The streets, the people, the way the air smelled—it was all exactly as he remembered.His first delivery took him to a corporate office.A ma
glitch
Trevor’s paranoia didn’t ease as he rode through the city streets. He kept glancing over his shoulder, half-expecting that shadowy man to reappear. But the roads remained empty, the only sounds being the hum of traffic and the occasional shout from pedestrians.Still, something was wrong.His mind kept replaying the moment at the café. Lyra’s face, her confused expression, the way she had looked at him like he was a stranger.Had the system erased her memories? Or… was this even the same Lyra?Trevor turned onto a quiet alley, stopping to take a break. He pulled out his phone and checked his messages. Nothing unusual. His boss had sent him a few reminders, and there were some spam texts, but—Then, his screen flickered.Just for a second.Trevor frowned. He tapped the screen, but everything seemed fine now. Probably just a glitch.Then it happened again.This time, the screen filled with static before flashing a message in bold red text:"SYSTEM ERROR: MEMORY RETRIEVAL INCOMPLETE."Tr
a normal day
Trevor pushed open the door to the small, dimly lit convenience store, the familiar chime of the bell ringing overhead. The air smelled of instant noodles and cheap coffee—just like always. He had made his delivery, gotten a half-hearted "thanks" from the customer, and now he was here, grabbing a quick snack before heading back to work.Everything was… normal. Too normal.As he stood in line, waiting to pay for his energy drink and bag of chips, he found himself tapping his fingers on the counter absentmindedly. His mind was still racing. The system world, the monsters, the Rift, the Nexus—had it really just vanished like that?He glanced at the cashier. Just an average guy scrolling on his phone, completely unaware that Trevor had just been fighting for his life in another reality. He let out a breath and shook his head. Maybe he really was losing it."You gonna pay, or just stand there looking confused?" the cashier asked, raising an eyebrow.Trevor blinked. "Uh. Yeah. Sorry." He fu
Thrown back!
Trevor and Lyra had barely taken a few steps after the Guardian’s ominous warning when something strange happened. The air around them seemed to distort, bending as if reality itself was warping. The ground beneath their feet wavered, and the shadows, which had been so oppressive just moments ago, began to flicker and dance as if alive.“I don’t like this,” Trevor muttered, instinctively reaching for his sword, though he knew it wouldn’t be of much use here.Lyra looked around, her staff raised, ready for whatever was coming next. “Something’s not right. I feel—”Before she could finish her sentence, the ground beneath their feet seemed to vanish. A dizzying sensation of freefall gripped them as if they were being sucked into a vortex. Trevor tried to call out, but the words caught in his throat as the world around him twisted and turned.In the blink of an eye, the chaotic energy of the system world vanished. The oppressive darkness, the ominous cavern, the Guardian—they were all gon
Relentless pursuit
Trevor and Lyra continued their journey, now more cautious than ever. Every footstep seemed to echo in the vast, empty space of the cavern, amplifying the tension in the air. The system's ominous warning still rang in their ears, like an ever-present reminder that their lives—along with everything they knew—hung by a thread.“So… about that ominous warning,” Trevor muttered, his sword gripped tightly in his hand. “Are we just supposed to keep going like this?”Lyra shot him a sideways glance. “I don’t know. We don’t have much of a choice. If we don’t finish this, everything we’ve fought for will be destroyed. The system wasn’t lying.”“Yeah, thanks for the pep talk,” Trevor said sarcastically, rolling his eyes. “Really feeling the ‘we-can-do-it’ energy right now.”Lyra frowned but didn’t respond. The weight of the task ahead was enough to silence them both. The path before them was no longer smooth—rocks and boulders jutted out of the ground, making it difficult to navigate. The air w
Golem
Trevor and Lyra moved cautiously through the newly revealed path. The air was dense, pressing against their chests, as though the cavern itself was holding its breath. Every step they took echoed through the stillness, a constant reminder that they were far from safety.“Why does everything in this place look like a bad dream?” Trevor muttered, his sword drawn, his eyes darting between the shadows. "Like, can we get some normal, non-nightmare scenery here?"Lyra, walking in front, didn’t reply immediately. Her focus was intense, her gaze fixed ahead. “This place… it feels different. I don’t think it’s just the atmosphere. Something’s changing.”“Great,” Trevor said, sounding almost sarcastic. “Something’s changing. That’s exactly what I needed to hear.”A sudden rumble ran through the ground beneath them. Trevor’s heart jumped into his throat as the tunnel around them began to shift—large chunks of the stone floor cracked and crumbled, sending debris tumbling into the dark abyss below
cavern
Trevor’s stomach lurched as the platform beneath them crumbled away, sending them tumbling into the abyss. The wind howled past them, and for a moment, it felt like they were falling through nothingness, just a never-ending spiral of darkness.“Not again!” Trevor shouted, flailing his arms. “I hate falling!”Lyra’s voice broke through the rush of air, sharp and clear. “Hold on!” She reached out, grabbing Trevor’s arm just as the ground seemed to draw closer. Her fingers tightened around him. “I don’t know how much longer I can—”Before she could finish, the darkness around them suddenly shifted. The air grew dense, and the ground below them… solidified.With a hard thud, they crashed onto the ground, rolling a few feet before coming to a stop.Trevor groaned, his sword still firmly gripped in his hand. “Okay, okay. I’m fine.” He pushed himself to his knees, rubbing his head. “You know, I’m starting to think the system just enjoys torturing us.”Lyra sat up beside him, shaking her head
descend!
Trevor’s stomach lurched as he plummeted through the darkness. Wind howled past his ears, but there was no ground in sight.“This is it,” he yelled. “This is how I die. Not in an epic battle, not saving the world—just falling forever.”Lyra’s voice cut through the rushing air. “Shut up and focus,stop talking about dying now, we will die if you don't shut your mouth Trevor!".Trevor twisted in midair, barely managing to see her falling beside him. She was gripping her staff tightly, eyes glowing with determination.“Focus on what?” he shouted. “Gravity is kind of kicking our butts right now!”Lyra gritted her teeth. “Then we fight gravity.”She thrust her staff downward, and a surge of golden energy exploded beneath her. For a brief second, she slowed—but then the force of the fall overcame the magic, and she dropped again.Trevor winced. “Well, that was a good try, really I'll try that next time,that was well executed!"“Shut up.”Lyra gripped her staff again, chanting quickly. This t
The Countdown Begins
Trevor and Lyra crashed onto the hard stone floor as the blinding light faded. Trevor groaned, rolling onto his back. “I swear, if we get teleported one more time, I’m going to punch the system in the face.”Lyra pushed herself up, coughing. “Yeah? Let me know how that works out for you.”They sat up, taking in their surroundings. They were standing on a massive stone platform floating in an endless void. Above them, jagged fractures ran through the dark sky, glowing faintly with an eerie blue light. Around them, pieces of land drifted weightlessly—some connected by crumbling bridges, others too far apart to reach.But the most unsettling sight was in the center of the platform: a massive stone pillar covered in glowing symbols, with an enormous hourglass at its base. The glass chamber was filled with swirling blue sand… and it was draining. Slowly but steadily.Trevor frowned. “That’s… probably bad.”Before Lyra could respond, a deep voice rumbled through the void."The Final Countdo
