A note from Alpha, Kai's most trusted Artificial Intelligence and companion.
[Before you get into the story 'ICE' or to better prepare you for that idiot Kai's journey I compiled everything about the power system]
[You can imagine it or just skip and wait for it to naturally unfold in the story.]
[But you never know. You might be the one getting transmigrated to this novel soon.]
'Hey, Alpha, where are you.'
[Damnit that idiot is calling me.]
[Ok, see you guys later. Don't forget to leave a review and add it to your library if you like it.]
POWER SYSTEM:
- Kaiser Vanguard - The Main Character formally known as Kim Seoyoung a hopeless worker that was underpaid, his favorite novel had a bad ending and being the mad person he is, quit his job but the world being by his side sent him into his favorite novel.
[How can you quit your job just because of a novel.]
'You don't know how I felt.'
- ICUWSA - The novel read by Seoyoung back in his world and the world he was transmigrated into.
- CUBE - An unknown cubic entity that brought both the system UI and the poisonous gas that turned Earth's lifeforms into monsters called drifters and made the planet and its geography mutate.
[Think of a disgusting cube box; like what was his name again.]
'Gojo'
[Yeah like the one they trapped Gojo but so much more bigger.]
- TRAITS - These are elemental talents that awakened mages get right from birth. After the middle of the fourth Genesis period, these traits became quirky, having distinctive features.
EXAMPLES:
• A man who has wind affinity but can only make people pump like a balloon.
• Someone who has fire affinity but can only light candles.
• A woman with water affinity that can absorb water out of a human or drifters body.
Status: This represents your current affinities, which are fire, water, earth, wind, light, and darkness.
- Each element has its deviant form.
• Water to ice
• Darkness to shadows
• Wind to soul and sound
• Fire to lightning etc.
- RANKS - Traits are divided into ranks according to their potency and usefulness.

[You are still here. Congrats. At least you're more prepared than Kai has ever been.]
'Alpha can you stop that.'
[What I'm not lying.]
'You're really brain dead.'
[Jokes on you I have no brain.]
- DRIFTERS - These are human beings and other life forms who mutated into grotesque and hideous monsters and life forms by the Cube.

-
TIER ONE (1) - EIGHT CORES

TIER ZERO (0) - NINE CORES
[Yes, even your ancestor can be the drifter you're slaying like a badass ]
- CORE CAPACITY - This is the compiled evaluation of all your potential stats in a rank.
Strength (STR)
Agility (AGI)
Dexterity (DEX)
Intelligence (INT)
Charm (CHA)
Endurance (END)
Luck (LUK)
Mana (MA)
Hacks(HK)
Core Capacity = Total Stats – Increases based on your MAGE RANK. But differs between TRAIT RANK.
----
[Not usually in the stats window so don't worry it won't be too much to read.]
- AFFILIATION - Groups official mages work with to complete missions.
Note: Only available after passing the Mage Trial.
----
[Something like a guild but you get the gist of things.]
-----
CELESTIAL CODE: A title given by the universe to those that goes against fate or surpasses it's expection.
[It will be useless at the start but by later volumes you will understand the use. For now it is nothing but an extra name]
TITLE: An extra one time cheat ability that comes in a form of a name you can bypass the rule of having only one trait and use and ability unrelated to your trait.
Example:
• The frog jumper can give you an ability to jump far away once.
----
- MISSIONS - Quests assigned by the Cube system outside the Dome. Completing them increases your MAGE RANK and grants permission to re-enter the Dome.
Warning ⚠️: Missions can last years, even centuries.
This means mages live up to 500 years.
----
- DOMES - The last safe zone on Earth(Meltonia). From inside is indistinguishable from normal Earth. But from the outside, it's a massive steel-like cylinder protecting what's left of humanity.
----
- GENESIS PERIOD -
Different timelines of Earth before and after the Cube are split into "Genesis" cycles:
• 1st Genesis - Unknown
• 2nd Genesis - Unknown
• 3rd Genesis - Before the great cataclysm (19th-21st century)
• 4th Genesis - After the great cataclysm and arrival of the Cube.
----
[Even I don't get this yet. And I'm super smart trust me.]
'You can't even tell me my opponents ability.'
[And who's fault is that.]
- OUTER WORLDS - A Realm outside the concept of reality, where even the cube is ineffectively and ruled by the INNER and OUTER GODS.
- NIVIDA - The second highest realm ruled by the ANCIENT ONES.
-------
TL;DR:
• You awaken Traits at birth.
• Trait ranks are usually not publicized, unless with the guardians concept.
• Mages fight Drifters, mutated monsters.
• Titles are one time use.
• You level up by completing Missions from the Cube (Like from Apprentice to Expert.)
• The world outside is a wasteland, and Domes are the only safe places.
[Don't forget you're the gods of this world that can also affect the actions of the narrator so, leave a comment on what you will like to see and change.]
[Peace ]
