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

In the aftermath of the hyenas' defeat at the hands of Avena and Remi, the group charted their course towards the fabled lake perched atop the mountain, its existence whispered in hushed tones and shrouded in mystery.

As they journeyed, Julian sidled up to Arlo, curiosity etched on his face like a finely crafted sculpture,

"What made you save me back there?"

Arlo blinked in confusion, "When?"

"You shielded me when the hyena detonated, showering us with acid," Julian clarified.

"Ah... I remember. I pulled you in because you were within reach," Arlo responded nonchalantly.

"That's not my point. Before I activated my shield, you were behind Remi. But when I activated it, you positioned yourself between me and Remi, as if you had foreseen the consequences if things went south. Why did you do that?" Julian pressed, frustration creeping into his voice.
