Chapter 0: The Beginning of the End
"Damn it, what is this nonsense? Where the hell am I?"
My head was throbbing as if I had fallen from the sky into the ninth circle of hell. At that moment, I heard a voice inside my head.
"The process is complete."
"What process? Who's speaking?" As I pondered the situation, I heard a girl's voice next to me screaming:
"You perverted jerk! We're under attack, and you're...!" I tried to lift myself, but I couldn't move. I felt something soft in my hand, and a shy voice next to me said:
"York, please stop for a moment. Wait until we're married. I'm ready to give myself to you, but we're under attack!"
What the hell is going on?
"The body processing is complete. Excess energy is being discharged.
Level up.
Level up.
Congratulations to the host. You are now at level seven in the World of Origin."
"Wait, wait! What the hell is going on here?" I quickly stood up, but the other girl was still screaming in an annoying voice:
"York, you perverted jerk..."
Before she could finish, I found my fist in front of her face. I didn't even know how I moved so fast, nor how much power was in that punch. All I wanted was to shut this punk up.
No one in this world is allowed to call me by my first name, York, except my mother. And since my mother is dead, I don't even use my name anymore.
Boom! Boom!
What the hell just happened? A bunch of soldiers who had been guarding the palace rushed in after hearing the noise. Suddenly, the place fell completely silent. I looked around and saw everyone staring at me with strange expressions. Out of nowhere, the soldiers knelt, and no one spoke.
I looked at the girl next to me, and at that moment, memories of this body's previous life flooded my mind. I wasn't sure if it was painful or not. All I knew was that this cursed body wasn't mine. And this place isn't Earth. So what the hell am I doing here?
I sat down and calmed myself. The girl beside me seemed a bit terrified as she looked at me. Her name was Julia, and she was this body's fiancée. The owner of this body had the same name as me, York. Well, whatever. The other girl was her servant and only friend, Emily. Wait, where's Emily?
I turned my head and saw half of Emily's body embedded in the large wall, with blood still dripping from her corpse onto the floor. What the... did I kill her with that punch? Well, well, no matter.
A guard spoke up, "Your Majesty, the kingdom has been surrounded. The enemy forces number around 2,000. Your orders, sire?"
The first thing I noticed was that I had killed someone. But what was up with these soldiers? I could see the fear in their eyes, yet no one dared to speak to me. Oh, so I'm the king. Damn it. Despite these memories in my head, I didn't bother looking at this nonsense.
"Everyone, leave."
I spoke with such authority that everyone left in a hurry. While thinking about it, I remembered the voice in my head. From what I understand now, I'm in someone else's body. The name of this kingdom is "Bero." It was founded by this body's father over 1,000 years ago. He seems to have been a powerful cultivator, which allowed him to live this long.
We're in a world called "The Continent," and it's enormous. It contains millions of empires and powerful sects. There's a lot of suffering, killing, and wars. This is a world of martial arts, magic, and strange creatures.
This is the world I find myself in now.
The first thing that came to my mind was the need for power. Not because I read a lot of stories in my past life about heroes who reincarnate in other worlds and start gaining strength.
“Haha, you're mistaken.”
"Haha... hah... hahaha. Damn it. Even though I couldn't destroy that damned Earth, I made it a living hell, at least. All I needed was time until I came to this world. I guess everything that's happening is because I'm weak, and I think whoever brought me here is trying to protect Earth. Hahaha."
Do you think I care about good and evil? Do you think I give a damn about any of this nonsense?
Damn everything.
I admit that my previous life was interesting, but I need to know how my life ended there. Power was something I sought after since childhood.
I was just a poor boy, born by mistake when someone raped my mother. My mother was beautiful, and you know what the 21st century was like. But my mother had good morals and refused to have an abortion, which is why her family abandoned her. Haha. I was born in a filthy street in the slums.
That moment was the beginning of the end of the world for me.
I hated poverty. My life was hell, to the point that I had to steal food to survive.
My mother died from sickness, poverty, mistreatment, and contempt... she lived her final days in utter humiliation. Yet, she was the only person I ever loved in my life.
The only person who remained loyal to me until the end. She meant everything to me.
And since my mother doesn't exist in this world, then this world itself doesn't deserve to exist. That was the beginning of my quest for power, simply for the ultimate goal of ending this cursed world.
"Status."
I had been expecting this.

*Ding* "The system has detected the host's compatibility with the Ashura bloodline."
Suddenly, a black screen appeared before me, displaying the system's many features. I saw a section for the store.
I opened the store, and the system immediately went to the bloodlines section.
What is this? "Royal Ashura Bloodline."
The price was extremely high.
Ashura Bloodline: 500 million system points (original price: 1 billion system points). The price has been discounted by 50% as a reward for the host's compatibility with the bloodline.
It's recommended to try to purchase the item.
Are you kidding me? I have 0 system points, and I don't even know how to earn them! Haha, this system is crazy.
Or maybe I'm the crazy one. Haha! I laughed loudly, and suddenly, the system rang in my head: "To earn system points, you must complete missions or achieve accomplishments."
*Ding*
A mission from the system: Protect the kingdom and kill the enemy (0/2000). Reward: 10,000 system points.
Damn this nonsense! The thing I hate most in life is being given orders.
I immediately pressed the button to refuse the mission and summoned the system.
"Is there any way to remove or destroy the system from my body?" I asked the system coldly.
Suddenly, I felt myself losing consciousness, and my mind plunged into darkness.
