Leon_Life_or_Death

My name is Arlo Templeton. Just a guy trying to live a life where I can forget my past.

In a world where mages wield magic to showcase their power and advanced technology commands Cybers robots, hovering cars, and Ray Guns to reign supreme, I am an outsider. It feels like I’ve stopped moving forward while time relentlessly marches on.

Hope is a word that can propel us forward or leave us lying down. But in this chaos, hope alone cannot grant someone peace. We need something greater to confront our adversaries.

It's as if something hears my pleas, as usual, when I visit the cave to mine Voidstone, surrounded by Cybers.

Suddenly, the cave exploded, crushing me to death. But death didn’t come. Instead, I found myself back at that morning.

Then, I gained System ability.

Now what?

Do I live in regret anymore? I've lost too much in my life—my family, my ambition, my peace, my happiness. I’m afraid that if I move forward, I'll lose even more in the future. Will this system save or kill the people I want to protect?

No Magic,No Tech,No problem,Just My System's Power

After settling their dues with Shaman for the weapons, Arlo and Remi exited the Ulysses establishment, making their way through the bustling streets of the Psionic District.

In their possession were two briefcases each, safeguarding a katana, a pair of kukris, a shield, and an enigmatic item that Arlo had specifically requested.

"What's in the fourth briefcase?" Remi asked, her curiosity piqued.

"That's not for you to know," Arlo replied curtly.

"I did pay for that weapon," Remi pointed out, to which Arlo retorted, "With my money, nonetheless."

Their banter continued as they approached the world's tallest edifice, a place where Arlo had narrowly escaped destruction half a year ago. Now, the building stood renewed, its glass facade devoid of any signs of damage. The windows sparkled more than Arlo remembered. Two cybers stood guard at the entrance, scanning the incoming crowd.
