A few moments of shock later
While I was thinking ‘I am an NPC? Now that I think about it, I've only ever seen Adventure NPCs and Important Quest Related NPCs move while those with normal Quests stay in one place all the time. Could it be I am one such NPC?!! I was shouting in my head and cursing The AI that made me an NPC’ , Somebody came near me and asked “Do you have any quests for me”
Before I realized it, I spoke “I lost my stick can you find it for me? “I was ecstatic to release I could speak but also sad since I could not control what I said. The Man nodded and also muttered, “This better have a good reward or else...”I felt a chill up my spine and knew something bad was going to happen.
A few minutes later
I saw that man return to a somewhat battered state compared to before. The man came and said, “I could not find the stick, can you give me the reward anyway”. Then I again spoke, “I lost my stick can you find it for me. “I noticed the man’s face change into an angry face after hearing me repeat the same thing. ‘I had seen that face several times, the face that means “One of us is going to die today” ’ I was thinking while he frowned while trying to put on a smiling face and said “I could not find the stick, can you give me the reward anyway.” But still I again spoke, “I lost my stick can you find it for me. “Now he was enraged and started attacking me and the worst thing was I could not move my body for self-defense.
The man threw me and started trampling me, I saw my HP decrease at a rapid rate. ‘What kind of stats do I have, even a rabbit’s HP would not decrease so much by a beginner’ I thought. Then my HP reached zero and I died for the second time today.
I felt I was floating in a boundless space of void
[Ding… System initializing….Host Selected. Would you like to be the host?]
“Is this that AI Rachel again?”
[Wrong. The System is not Rachel.The System does not have a name]
“Which human would make an AI without a name?”
[Wrong. No mere mortal can make me and only the host can select a name for me]
“What! How were you made then?”
[You do not have the authority/privilege to get the answers. If you decide to become the host you will be revived with a chance to get your physical body]
“There is only 1 choice left for me and this is it. I accept to become your host.”
[Ding… System successfully branded to host’s soul. Please select a name for System.]
“Alright, since you’re helping me change my fate by giving me a new beginning. You’ll be called Kronos.”
That was the name of The Greek God of beginning, gates, transitions, time, duality, doorways, passages, and ending, and the one who will now change my fate.
[Ding… Successful. The System will be called Kronos]
I felt that the voice suddenly had a transformation and I could no longer identify it as the same voice as before.

[Ding…. Mission completed successfully][Ding…. Mission reward allocated][Ding…. Time reversed successfully]I woke up tired and noticed I was back in my home and I shouted “Hip Hip Hurray!”Then I heard a voice saying “Brother, what’s the happy news today” and when the owner of the voice came near me, I was shocked since it was my sister who should be in china studying at a university using a scholarship. I thought asked her “what year is it today” and when she replied with a slight look of hesitation and surprise, I was shocked since I had come back a whole 5 yrs back in time. My sister Alice asked me “So, what’s the good news, and why are you asking me the year today.” I made up an excuse quickly and said “Oh, just a happy dream that I had” “Oh okay”I quickly went out of the house and checked the date and month on my old button phone.

In a few minutes, I reached Golden Dragon Café and saw my friend’s car without change parked with a crowd around it. When I went to the café I saw tom waiting near the entrance. I called him by shouting “Tom, I am here. How long have you been waiting.”“Not long actually, I cannot believe you’ve changed so much. What have you been eating these days, you’ve become so thin. You are no longer the handsome Gerald of our university.” Tom said. His words made me remember how we had to go from 3 rich meals to 2 middle-class meals to save money.“It’s nothing much to talk about, come let’s go in” I replied while smoothly dodging his question. We both went into the VIP room booked by tom.“So what did you need the 5 million for? You should not have so many expenses right” Tom questioned. I knew he would ask me this question after I came to the café.“I needed it for an important investment of mine” I replied immediately. So after successfully convincing tom why I needed 5 million, we both had
The Record of The Journey to The Peak Chapter 5- Heaven Defying Void Cultivation Manual
According to the information I received The GATE was not just a game that a genius was able to make due to a sudden burst of inspiration but another planet in another universe that was accessed by the game pod which created a replica of the person in it, so the actual person would not die but a small fraction of his conscience which operates the replica might get destroyed.This was quite shocking to me who thought the world was artificially constructed. No wonder it felt so realistic and you could feel all 5 senses.[Do you want to activate your random rare cultivation lottery, a piece of advice from Kronos would be to activate the lottery in a private place free of people.]With this influx of information, I almost forgot about the cultivation manual.

There were 10 continents and it seems when I get the knowledge of a continent it would be counted as 10% being completed. The Extra 1% was due to me knowing some things about the history and future of the Human Continent due to spawning in it as my race was human then. Now for me to complete the mission I must find Books about the history of the other continents but it would most probably be tough since they too would be in the royal libraries.After looking out the window I noticed that it was evening. I had eaten lunch before coming to the palace but I was still hungry, so I went to the palace’s dining hall and hall my dinner. After filling my stomach, I went to bed and went for a deep sleep.The next DayI was once again got dressed by Grace but this time in a School Dress.
