Chapter 2: The System

Chapter 2: The System

After the screen disappeared, and once Jung's shock had subsided a little, he looked around to explore his location.

He was in a forest with dense trees and ground covered in green grass. The sun was close to setting, casting a reddish glow throughout the forest, making it a truly beautiful sight.

But it wasn't for Jung! He was still trying to figure out what was happening.

Jung muttered in fear and disbelief: "It seems I’ve moved to another place? Or maybe another world?...."

'Calm down, calm down... let's see, from what was written on the blue screen, it seems my body has been reconstructed... by it, maybe? And maybe in another world, like what happens in novels.... Although it’s hard to believe, it seems that’s what happened,' Jung thought as he tried to calm himself from the terror and fear that gripped him.

"Voooth," a sound similar to the one made when the blue screen first appeared, echoed, causing Jung to instinctively look at the same spot where it had disappeared.

And indeed, the blue screen reappeared.

This time it read: [The system has prepared a gift for you as a welcome to your reincarnation. You have received a second-grade item of the middle rank.]

Jung muttered: "System?... Item?..."

And just as he was about to try touching the screen, he heard a faint sound of a branch breaking.

He turned his head towards the sound to find, a little distance away to the east, a girl standing there, staring at him with a shocked expression.

Jung was also surprised. This was the first person he saw in this place.

The girl was wearing leather hunting attire and had a hat covering her ears and hair, though a few strands of golden hair escaped from beneath it. Her skin was very pale, her eyes a sky-blue color, and she held a hunting rifle in her hand.

Jung kept looking at her for a long time, struggling to take his eyes off her; she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, and strangely, she didn’t react even though Jung had been staring at her for a long time—she was frozen in place.

'She’s extremely beautiful... but what’s going on? Why is she staring at me like that?' And as if answering his question, the girl finally moved, but it wasn’t what he expected.

The girl’s face turned red, and she quickly closed her eyes, then raised the rifle in her hands, aiming at Jung, and shouted: "You pervert! What do you think you’re doing?..."

'Why did she point the gun at me?... Pervert?... Who does she mean?... Oh no, don’t tell me...' Jung thought in fear, then looked down at his body—he was completely naked! And because of his shock at what had happened so far, he hadn’t noticed.

Now that he realized, his body shivered; the weather was extremely cold.

The girl shouted: "I-If you don’t put on clothes now, I-I-I’ll shoot you, you pervert!"

She tried to appear brave, but it was clear she was terrified. Well, who wouldn’t be scared when meeting a man wandering naked in the forest? When she saw him earlier, she froze in place out of shock.

Jung thought in fear: 'Shoot me? W-What, is she crazy?... Aren’t there any police here, does she want to go to jail...'

But the girl didn’t give him time to think, as she said: "I’ll count to ten. If you don’t dress, I’ll shoot..."

Jung said in panic: "What?... Wait, you’ve got it wrong, I’m not a pervert... I don’t even know why I’m naked..."

The girl replied: "L-Liar, how can someone not know why they’re naked?"

Jung responded: "I..."

Jung tried to convince her, but she interrupted him: "One..."

Jung thought: 'Damn it! Am I going to die?... And for what? For being naked... Wait, maybe I could make clothes out of leaves, like cavemen did? No, there’s no time... So what should I do? Wait! Didn’t the blue screen... the system, say it would give me an item? What if that item is clothes?'

Then he quickly turned his gaze to what was called the system.

He tried pressing on it as if it were a phone, but his hand simply passed through the blue screen.

Which made him curse: 'Damn it! Are you kidding me... how do I use it... come on, quickly, give me the item...'

Suddenly, the writing on the screen disappeared, and new text appeared: [ Item: Black Suit

Item Rank: Middle Rank (Second Grade)

Item Description: This suit contains magic with a density of "C" grade, of a physical nature. Therefore, it is highly durable and can provide protection against physical attacks.

* Do you want to use the item? *

]

Jung muttered in awe: "Black suit? Physical protection? What is this.... no, it doesn’t matter now.... Yes, I want to use the item."

A black light enveloped his entire body, and when it disappeared, there was a black leather suit covering his entire body, with a belt strapped around his waist.

Jung said in astonishment: "Impossible!"

He lifted his head to look at the blue screen, but it had already vanished.
