Episode 1: awoken

hello there, my name is Ryu Suzuki.. currently 36.... I am the normal middle aged man who works in an office.. honestly life wasn't as boring as this. in high school I was the school "bully" and always had fights everyday. that life was fun, I punched and kicked faces of students and ended up getting named "blood demon" I always looked messy and was feared by everyone, so none dared to ask me how I look like. I have a very embarrassing secret.. which everyone now knows.. what is it you ask? it's just.. though I may be rude and arrogant.. I still take.. time to feed felines..

I was actually born with something called "photographic memory", this is something where with just one glance through a book, I would directly memorize or just hearing it once I would memorize it. I never really appreciated that talent as I was always stared at. life was pretty boring till suddenly a truck ran over me.. everything became a blur..

???? : "hello there host? host?"

I awoke by the annoying sounds I was hearing and thought it was just the wind then realized that I was in a forest

???? : "host you're finally awake!"

I freaked out and screamed

Ryu : "#$-28+$_-+#(#+_"

WHAT LANGUAGE WAS I FU*KING SPEAKING?

???? : "ah host you must be shocked.. well hello there host! I am system 1"

Ryu : "(#-_$++$_-_+$-"

system: "ah right.. host you should speak from you're mind as of right now you can't speak you're normal language"

Ryu took a deep breath from shock and finally tried communicating through his mind

Ryu: (uh.. hello?)

system: "ah hello host! "

Ryu: (why do you keep calling me host and where am I? )

Author note: (...) is talking to system and thoughts

system: "oh right.. I haven't explained.. well host you have been chosen to be the first ever host for the first ever system as you have met the requirements that fit"

Ryu: (uhm?? this isn't a scam right..?)

Ryu: (ah alright.. can you please explain to me?)
