Chapter 2

"The first thing I want to wish for is to have a system like the ones in the novels I read. My second wish is to reborn in a world of magic, filled with mystery, excitement and dungeons. The third wish is to be able to train my skills in my dreams and my final two wishes are to have the highest affinity with every element and to be able to speak, read, write every language, both magical and non-magical"

"Except one all the other wishes can be granted, although they all seem strong and a bit of a cheat they all revolve around you having to work for what you get, they just make the amount of work needed slightly less." Incipere said with her arms crossed giving herself an affirmative nod.

"Which wish cannot be granted? What makes it so different from the other wishes?" Alex asked, confused how only one wish out of all of them couldn't be granted, he thought they were all over the top but still wanted to try who would have thought this is how it would go and that they could actually be granted.

"The wish that cannot be granted is the one pertaining to languages, there are so many languages in existence, giving you so much information could practically tear your mind apart. Not to mention that not every language are be spoken, written or read in the same way, as the words forom some languages themselves could hold certain powers, you must first have the capability to sense meaning of the words in the language before you can do anything with them. Whether it be through touch or sight. Some languages have requirements that need to be met before they can be spoken, instead this wish would have to be changed, don't worry though this wish would just have to be changed into a talent instead. This talent would just make it easier for you to learn different languages and if you can't speak, read or write a language this talent will allow you deduce the closest thing you can do to understand, speak, read and write the language."

"Oh! Alright, I'm fine with that, granting such strong wishes sure is strange. Is there a reason you are being so lenient with those who died? And when are the wishes going to be granted?" Alex asked Incipere while watching Taran crouched down away from then drawing circles on the floor mumbling about being ignored.

"Ok, so Ignoring the big baby drawing circles, why we are being so lenient is best left unsaid as I'm sure you will learn about it in the future. As for the wishes four of them have already been granted, as the last one has a requirement you haven't satisfied yet." After saying this Incipere looked at Taran drawing circles in the floor.

"Taran stop being such a big baby and take Alex to go wipe away the 'mark' from his soul, if you're going to do something it's got to be productive and I don't expect to hear a no." Incipere yelled at Taran dragging him out of his stupor.

Taran, noticing his bosses impatience, got up and ran over to Alex.

"Yes mam! Come on Alex, we're leaving." Taran teleported away with Alex in tow. Alex closed his eyes, not wanting to be blinded by any sudden lights, before feeling some slight nausea. The next thing he noticed was a sudden warm breeze against his skin, and as he opened his eyes he saw multitude of different vibrant colours and environments from lush green forests, Sandy dunes, frozen trundra's filled with sparkling ice and beautiful auroras that shined just as virbantly as it surrounding enviroments, all the way to luxurious beaches and beautiful star filled skies. A truly magical place.

"What is this place? Where are we?" asked Alex with an admiring tone in his voice.

"We are on another planet in a completely different universe than where your from, this planet is a lot larger than Earth so don't try to wander around too much, this is where we will be wiping away the 'mark' that Incipere mentioned before."

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

"Ok I can understand that it is another universe but what is this 'mark' that you and Incipere keep on mentioning, is it something special? and what is topiing the universe from erasing my existance now" Alex has been pondering over the meaning of this phrase since it kept on getting mentioned and seemed important.

"The mark that you keep on hearing about is a way that planets and universes mark their inhabitants, they plant a mark inside a soul linking it with the planet their born on and in extension the universe itself. Think of it as a way that the planet makes sure that all of its inhabitants, nothing on or in it is an outsider, and can't do anything they're not meant to and obey by the universes laws. For example, creating another planet or shattering a star and absorbing its energy. These are both things that shouldn't be possible for you Earthlings, as for the fact of you still existing that is thanks to the combined effort of Incipere and I, she covered this entire planet in a concealing forcefield that will stop the universe form noticing you. This can only be done because she is a Goddess and has enough skill and a deep enough understanding of the universe."

"Ok, so what did you do to help? and why do I have to remove the 'mark' in the first place? Would it be a bad thing to not get rid of this 'mark'?"

"I helped by adding another force field around a part of an island to stop it's local inhabitats fomr eating you. As for the mark and why it would be bad for you is that the 'mark' itself can be considered as the 'signature' of the universe that your from. This 'signature' will mark you as something foreign to other universe and you will be considered a parasite where you going as the place your going won't recognise that particular 'signature' as it's own and will try to rectify this problem by turning you into either pure energy it can use and shape for it's own purposes or to be used to be experimented. Of course if you don't want to keep your memories we can skip this part and you can get straihgt to being 'reborn'. Do you want to be 'reborn' now?"

"No! I don't want to lose my memories I'd rather keep them ." Alex said in a hurried and panic voice.

"Ok, now we've got that out of the way, back to what I was saying before. If the 'mark' is still attached to the soul or hasn't been completely cleansed the planet tat will be trasnproted to will take it upon itself to do the 'cleansing'. That means wiping the 'mark' as well as any memories from before and turning you into pure energy. Remember each universe has its own imprint, if a person or an unkown 'thing' was invading a planet and its will sense's it the planet will alert it's inhabitant's and any other being that it can speak to, for example the God's or nature spirits, and get them to warn the more people to help kill the parasite. Planets won't ask for any assistance from the universe, to them that is consiered the last resort, as they would want to use the new soul and the energy it gives to strengthen themselves."

"OK, so now I know all this how do I remove the 'mark'? do I jump into a pond? or do you use some sort of magic to help erase it?."

"I could use those methods, but I am one to believe in hard work, here's a book with all the things you will need to do to wipe the 'mark' away from your soul as well as some information about the world you will be reborn into. Good luck, you'll need it." Taran vanishes away, evilly laughing his ass off at Alex's expense.

"As my wishes have been granted let's get to the one I've been looking forward to using . . . . . Fuck I forgot to ask how to activate the system? Let's try the basics; Open sesame. . . . not that one. How about System unlock . . . . still no. FUCK. How do I activate the 'System'?"

[System Activated]

[Greeting host would you like to open the Starter Pack]

"Wait, I get these things? Oh well, yeah open the starter pack"

[Starter pack opened; System function unlocked (Temporary Inventory), System function unlocked(Quests), Gained Spare Clothes, Complete History of Isaria, Book of Languages [Magical & Non-Magical]

"Why is inventory temporary?"

[This is only meant to help you while you are here training. You won't be needing it in the future where you are going. All your items are inside your inventory]

"How does the inventory work?"

[Just think you about what you want to store and it will be stored, as long as you are touching it that is]

Following these steps Alex Imagined a plain history book appear in his hand and watched at the new display of magic. Now figuring out how this simple inventory option works Alex went on to erase this mark.
