Chap 2: Candy Pill!
[Third POV]
This new world wasn't all that surprising to Eiji, he himself was a genius. Society, politics, career, etc, none of those were of any hard things. For he worked hard and rised to the top in his last world.
However, some things were different in this world, the money, the technology, and even the world settings were different.
First, the money weren't cash, but coins. Copper coins, silver coins, gold coins, sapphire coins, ruby coins, amethyst coins, and finally diamond coins.
Copper coins were the cheapest, to get 1 silver coin, one needed 1,000 copper coins, to get 1 gold coin, one needed to get 1,000 silver coins, to get 1 sapphire coins, one needed 10,000 gold coins, for 1 ruby coin, one needed 100 sapphire coins.
But, the hardest ones to get were simply the last two, amethyst coin and diamond coin. If one needed 1 amethyst, then one would need atleast 100,000 ruby coins, and for 1 diamond coin, one needed 100,000,000 amethyst coins!
Only the richest of the richest had daimond coins, and they only had atleast 1-5 diamond coins!
The technologys were more advanced than in his last world, for this world had barrier machines, machines used for protection. There were certain grades for them. All objects, weapons, shields, any type of equipment or technologys had different grades/rank. The barrier machine fit into the shield category.
The ranks were Home, Village, Town, City, Country, and World class!
The world was different, for it functioned entirely on rpg-based system screens that displayed ones information. The information included ones name, lvl, and physical and mental attributes. If one wished to, they could see their skills or other's information. All though everyone could see information about items, one had to be a specialist to be able to fully identify the item.
The world did not have citys like in Japan or the US. Instead it had kingdoms, castles, etc, anything you'd find in a fantasy like world.
For every person at the age of 5, one would be able to awaken their ability; along with the ability's skills. Some were able to awaken at an earlier age, which were considered a genius, while some were unlucky and awakened at a later age.
People awakening at the age of 5 were considered adverage, and had a lot of opportunities to become someone strong. Earlier awakens had a bright future for themselves, while the later awakens had to work hard and grasp for an opportunity to become someone great.
If one were to awaken late, they were unlucky, however, if one hadn't awakened even after the age of 20, then it'd be too late for them. 20 was the age limit to awaken and if one still hadn't awakened, then they could be considered powerless people; who were discriminated against and treated unfairly, left to rot.
Every ability had ranks and realms. The ranks of abilities ranged from F to SSS, while the realms ranged from Mortal to God. The realms started from Mortal, Immortal, Earth, Heaven, and God.
The ranks measured the starting point, while the realm explained how strong the abilities were. The ranks were ones which could be raised with effort, while the realms were ones which stayed forever unless one ate an upgrade stone, resulting in ability evolution.
Upgrade Stones were magical stones which could upgrade anything, but there were limits to how much depending on the stone. Upgrade stones were varied from all types of ranks.

Theres a lot of other stones, but those are for another time.
Eiji being one of the unawakened people, was treated like trash instead of a human, and would get beaten time to time; going to school and coming back to home with fresh new bruises. Eiji still had few more years until he could officially be considered powerless, he was still 17, but that only applied to this body, not the current Eiji.
To be treated like trash for years, and maybe ones entire lifetime, Eiji commited suicide in his room by stabbing at his heart. Luckily, Ritsu got the abandoned body and became the new owner of the body.
***
Eiji was of course a genius in his last world, so he could easily do something about his current situation of being 'powerless'; not to mention being restricted in power and having only 0.1% of his real power. Meaning close to being a normal human.
All Eiji had to do was find out what was blocking or what the requirement for the body to awaken was. If he could do that(which he can easily) then he would be able to awaken this body's natural abilitys.
Staring at the window, Eiji closed his eyes and concentrated, he concentrated on his body and soon a notification screen appeared. He had used his skill [Modify], which he was granted by a certain dead god.
Ability:
Agar's Play : Immortal Rank C
Requirement:
To unlock, appearence must be 1000 points, 500+ in charms, 1000+ in strength and all other stats excluding luck.
P.S. Must be a guy, I hate girls.
*If you got a problem with me, then you can goto HELL!*
"..." After seeing this, Eiji almost bursted out with anger. He wasn't surprised to see an ability with a consciousness, but never knew there was a selfish spoiled brat, probably a girl. In fact, his ability, [Modify], had a conscience of it's own. He even named it.
Eiji had no problems with the requirements, but there wasn't a description of the ability, so he was a bit hesistant. After pondering for some minutes, he decided to leave the matter for another time.
"Mie-san, could you please give me a pill."(Eiji)
(A/N: Italic means thoughts, not like you guys don't know though.)
"Alright, but please stop calling me Mie, you named me Mieko."(Mieko)
"Sure, sure."(Eiji)
After saying that, a little dark void-like portal a few inches bigger than his palm appeared a few inches above Eiji's palm, then a round little sphere like thingy appeared and dropped down on his palm.
The the little round sphere was a pill, well it's just a normal candy ball that taste sweet and sour at the same time. (Thats what type of candy he likes)
Eiji held the candy and used his power, [Modify] on it.
"Modify" (Eiji)
Candy:
Crunchy sweet-sour candy.
Effects: Provides 10 Energy.
When Eiji saw this, he concentrated his energy on the effects; hoping for 1k in all stats. Then the change happened. The candy ball changed, the color used to be white, but turned to shiny black and had lines going down it. He appraised the candy again.
Awakening Pill:
Crunchy sweet-sour candy pill.
Effects: With these pill, 1000+ to all stats as a boost. This pill only be effective to those who have not awakened. Warning! Do Not Consume this Awakening Pill if you are near people, especially girls. You will get hard and erect, your thing will keep twitching and get bigger, you will fall into a state of sleep for an hour or less. Who knows what might happen if you were near someone? Haha.
"..." He was speechless, this was the first time this had ever happened. He would usually never get an effect like this; not like he wants to though. He was suspicious, was Mieko doing this on purpose?
Curious, he asked, "Mie? Do you have anything to do with this effect?" After he asked, he only heard a whistle in the background.
".." Ey.. that's bad acting Mieko. Even if you tried to hide, I already know it was you. She probably added this effect for a simple reason...probably for sex. But how? She doesn't even have a body! Unless she found a way to get a body for herself.
Thinking again, he questioned himself, does Mieko love me? Ehhhh, this naughty girl.
Seemingly not caring anymore, Eiji popped the pill into his mouth and started crunching. *Crunch* Crunch noises could be heard, one could tell just how much the Eiji loved the candy pill.
*Ommm*
Waves of energy after energy spreaded out all towards Eiji's body, however, there was large one that was going down. Soon, Eiji lost consciousness.
Everything went quiet soon after.
If one looked closely, they could see a tent twitching on Eiji's lower half.
"Aww! I can't hold it anymore! He's just too cute!"
