The sun moved through the open window,
Its rays blinding closed eyes of Host,
Eyes opening slightly. As they turned their gaze to the white colored ceiling,
'Not a dream', Zephyr thought, finding it harder to accept reality.
Getting up from his bed, he moved to the open window.
Placing his gaze on the moving sights.
~New York -America
A place Zephyr wouldn't even dream of coming to in his past.
His eyes wondered, moving in sight as they observed everything with the passage of time,
He was calm, too calm,
Was it the system that made him feel like this,
Or was it the fast acceptance of this new reality, in hopes of escaping the old one,
He didn't know, but whatever it was, whatever it did to him,
He was… at peace.

"So what should I call you?", Zephyr finally mattered,
[Host is free to call me whatever he pleases]
"Can you not talk to me in second person", Zephyr spoke clearly annoyed at how it sounded,
[Correction, it's third person, not second]
"Yeah whatever, can you just stop doing that", Zephyr spoke again in defense
[Affirmative]
He then gazed at the outside buildings as if in thought,
"Siri, what about that",
[Copyright detected]
"Ohh crap", he smacked in surrender, "Just say you don't like it",
[Affirmative]
"Nix, what about Nix",
[Changing Name from system to Nix]
[Change confirmed]
Zephyr then regretted his decision, thinking about why he didn't just call it System,
"Never mind, I'll just call yo…"
[Name cannot be changed, Name has already been imprinted]
Zephyr couldn't help but slightly laugh,
"Are you lying?",
[Affirmative]
He sighed in surrender,
The buildings, the sky, the crowded streets. It all felt so surreal, and then suddenly it hit him
"Emma", he whispered with words so silent but loud, "shit, shit, shit!",
He ran to his phone, and searched for the number,
{Emma ❤️}
He found it,
BEEP!
He called
TOOT-TOOT!!!
{The person you are trying to reach is not accepting calls from your number. Please hang up and try again later}
His face turned grey as he looked at the screen,
"She blocked me", he muttered, "shaking his head in regret,"
He could clearly remember how much he fucked up, although Emma was older, she was the only one who actually showed any type of care toward him,
It clearly wouldn't be a stretch to say she had been in love, in fact deeply.
So deeply in love that she was responsible for the current apartment he was now lived in.
Just like his past life, this body was not that smart,
Although it had already finished school at 17, its grades were the worst, barely reaching the bare minimum of making it out in the final year,
And the worst thing the body has done so far,
A sin that even Zephyr from his past life would never commit,
'Refuse to have sex',
"Why did this body make such poor decisions?", Zephyr questioned, slightly feeling as if his reincarnation was nothing more but a waste of effort,
[for the past 17 years, the body seemed to have gone into what you might deem as auto pilot]
[due to the lack of your past life memories, you were forced to do what you would have done in the past, this includes not studying, a small amount of intellect, and a late growth span in terms of the understanding of consequences]
"If that's the case why the fuck would I refuse to have sex",
[As a way of protection, the body was being restricted from making any type of major decisions, just like your past life this body has never had sex mainly to prevent any type of unwanted pregnancy, and other restrictions include not ever drinking alcohol, playing games and watching TV in the replacement of studying]
"Ok but wait, if that's the reason. Why do I fuckin have tattoos, shouldn't there be a restriction for those type of actions, and also my ears and nose seem to be pierced?"
[yes, your body was restricted from making those type of decisions, but the restrictions lift if the decision was something you would have done in your past life and if it doesn't affect your current being to a certain extent]
"Huh.."Zephyr thought for a moment, plundering if what he was hearing was real, "I wouldn't do tattoos in my past",
[yes, but that is simply because in your past life, you were ugly]
He felt offended, but quickly dismissed it, thinking back to how it seemed to be true,
"So you mean if I was handsome, I would have gotten tattoos?",
[Affirmative]
"Fuck", Zephyr couldn't help but whisper slightly, his gaze still staring out the window,
"My adaption, is it an awakening?",
[I am not following what you mean]
"I mean my adaption, is it because of mana?"
[No, your adaption is due to the traits of your race]
"My race?",
[Precisely, your adaption is because you are a Shikigami]
"Wait, I'm not human",
[Affirmative]
"So what does that mean for me, what happens if I'm defeated, will I be tamed?"
[No, Cursed energy does not exist in this dimension, and even if it did, you can't be tamed because you are not the effect of a ritual]
"Ohh",
Zephyr just stood there looking at the passing cars, the noise of civilians moving their bodies through the pending traffic,
It was tedious, but for some reason, it felt so
Peaceful,
'I should go for a walk', Zephyr thought, as he moved his body to grab his jacket,
[Host is advised to take a bath before exit]
Zephyr froze, asking himself what the reason could be,
"Why?",
[No major reasons. It has already been 26 hours since host had taken a bath] Nix spoke, which made Zephyr sigh in annoyance,
He took his jacket and exited the room.
It was an apartment, very old, but his room felt oddly comfortable,
His room payment used to be paid by Emma but now he wasn't sure if that would still be the case, considering she had blocked him from her contacts.
Looking at the passing people Zephyr couldn't help but feel astonished,
The way they walked,
The smell of piss on the crowded street,
The cat that was probably a rat, that ran when it saw him coming,
It all felt so normal,
And yet, he knew that it was far from reality.
For this was the world of hunters,
A world that would soon be filled with chaos,
"Nix, what timeline am I in, respective to the main start of the canon in the novel",
[I have no idea]
"Sigh",
Zephyr took out his phone and searched on the internet,
{S rank gate was cleared 4 years ago and the death of Kamish the dragon is marked as the start of S rank Dungeon break clearing history, some rumours say the Dungeon was the hardest they would ever face…]
"What about now", Zephyr asked,
[Considering the death of Kamish to be 4 years ago, the estimation of this timeline is approximately 3 to 4 years before the canon, this includes the possibility that the information in your memory is correct]
'I still have time', Zephyr thought, thinking about the problems that were soon to come, 'But first I need money'
"What's the quickest way to make money", Zephyr asked
[I have no idea]
"…"
"What do you mean you have no idea", he felt startled,
[I only have knowledge that is related to the host's body, memories and functions]
"If that's the case how do you know those big words you were using when you spoke about having full control of my body", he doubted, he felt as if the system was contradicting itself,
[like I said, I only have information related to the body, memories and the consciousness, the reason I can say words that seem complex is because those words are related to the things and parts of the body, any information outside of the body, I have no knowledge off,
if your memories knew any methods on how to make money, that information would be known, but it seems that in both strands of your consciousness, that method doesn't seem to exist]
Zephyr was shocked by the words that Nix spoke,
And for a second Zephyr felt a bit offended,
[Suggestion: the internet should have information about what you need]
"Ohh good point", Zephyr took out his phone,
{How to make money fast and easy}
He typed on the search bar, and found nothing,
"I don't think this will work, do you have any other suggestions?",
[No, but I have a reason]
"I'm listening",
[you are dumb]
"Wait, …what"
[Your IQ is actually 16 numbers away from being mentally retarded]
"Fuck you man!, and either way, Are you even allowed to be this offensive"
[Yes, from the state of your mental condition, you appear to suffer from mental issues such as depression, anxiety and 3 others.
In order to minimize the effects of your state of mind, I am conversing in conversations that have jokes, consistency and human-like behavior]
"So, I'm still struggling with that huh?",
[that appears to be the case]
"Sigh",
Zephyr just kept walking, and for a second he had forgotten that Nix's voice was all in his head, his actions made the surrounding people look at him as if he had gone crazy,
As if he was walking around talking to himself,
And for the first time, the city of New York saw a man who looked like an angel, seem as if he had lost his mind,
For the first time, New York saw there very first, crazy Adonis.
