The new system

I accepted, not knowing what to do. In the next moment, I collapsed onto the ground. As I came back to me, I could see another system in front of me, saying:

Name:???

Age:???

Family:???

Background:???

Class:???

Level: 1

Health: [500/500]

Skills: ???, Fire Control, Darkness Control! New

[???]

???

[Fire Control]

You are able to create a small flame. It can't burn anything, but it can help you see in the dark.

[Darkness Control (passive)]

You are invisible in the darkness or shadows.

You can see in the darkness all the time.

You heal in the darkness.

Why the heck is this list so long? And why do they want to know something about my family? This system is kinda weird, as it even has a counter for life. Why doesn't mine have one? Does this mean people with my system are invincible? Or do they just die from the lightest touch? What the heck is going on here?

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

I didn't know what to say, as I remembered I had to receive my results to get a badge that symbolizes what rank I'm at, and that I'm an Awakened. I went straight to where I would get it from. I was lucky, as they were only finished when I arrived. I got a badge symbolizing that I was a 10th-rank, meaning I was the weakest.

I was still happy about it, as I didn't want to be the best in the world or fight monsters at all. Other people could do this, while I just sit back and watch my followers do whatever they want. Let's see, maybe I will get another one today.

I went outside the guild building and not many people looked at me. I placed my mask back on my face and searched for a new follower. Who knows, maybe I was lucky. As I went from street to street, I could hear something. It was quite far away, but I knew that this could be an opportunity. So, I went to where I heard the cry from.

As I made my way through alleys over alleys, I arrived where the cry should have come from. As I stood in the shadow, I could feel myself slowly turning invisible against my will. I didn't give it too much thought, as I saw a little girl crying with a little cat in her hands. The cat seemed to be dead.

I asked the girl what the matter was, but she only cried and said that a monster had killed her cat. I knew I had the power to revive this cat, but I couldn't just give something away; I would need something in return.

So, I asked the girl: "Do you want to be able to revive your cat?" The girl stopped crying and seemed to only now see that she was talking to someone invisible. The girl slowly asked: "God? Are you God?"

I didn't say anything. This took me by surprise. I didn't think she would think of me as this. I then sorted out my thoughts and said: "No, I may not be God, but I'm someone who can give you the power to revive your cat. The only thing you have to do for me is to live an interesting life so that I won't get bored. What do you say?"

I brought out a small flame so she could see something, and she now, could only see my mask as I only wore dark-colored clothes. It took her by surprise and she asked me: "Are you the devil, then?"

I laughed at her words and only said, "You don't have much time to decide..." She instantly shouted: "Yes!" And I tapped into my system, "Power: The Ability to revive the dead." As I was finished with the tapping, there was a green light and in front of the girl came a system. I said, "You have chosen the right way. I believe in you," and I left without turning back and without knowing how much I just messed up...
