Chapter 2 - The Void Between Worlds 2

When he entered, he found himself in a dark place… a pitch-black darkness with no end.No sound… no light… only emptiness.

Then a door appeared before him, with words written on it:

"Welcome, Host."

The man frowned slightly and said in a cold voice:

"Where is this place? And why is it so dark?"

The words on the door slowly changed:

"Host… I will now explain the rules of the Doors."

He raised an eyebrow slightly and said:

"Rules? What are these doors anyway?"

New words appeared:

"We are now in the Void Between Worlds.""This place functions as a station for transition and rest between worlds."

The man remained silent for a moment… then said calmly:

"Continue."

"Worlds are classified from 1 to 2500, based on strength, civilization, and energy systems."

Suddenly…

An interface appeared before him.

Origin World: EarthRank: 922Location: SeoulDate: 2015/12/1

Name: AkiraAge: 19Rank: SSS Hunter

His eyes widened slightly, then narrowed coldly.

"How… do you know this?"

The words appeared instantly:

"The system is connected to the host.""It is similar to the systems used in games."

A faint smile formed on his face… but there was nothing normal about it.

"A system…?"

He let out a low chuckle.

"Now this… might actually be worth my time."

His gaze darkened slightly.

"So… what exactly is the purpose of all this?"

"Each world has a different power system.""Such as cultivation and refinement… or mana… or other systems."

Silence filled the space for a moment…

Then

Multiple doors suddenly appeared.

Doors of strange shapes…Some glowing… some dark… others pulsing with unknown energy.

Akira stopped and looked at them carefully.

Then he said slowly:

"Behind these doors… are there other worlds?"

"Yes, Host.""Different worlds… some similar to Earth… others far stronger."

Silence.

Then

A smile slowly spread across his face.

Wider… darker…

"Heh… heh…"

He placed his hand over his face slightly, then spoke in a low voice:

"I want… to kill."

He slowly lifted his head, his eyes shining with a hint of madness.

"I want to see… how far this can go."

Then he looked at one of the doors and said:

"Tell me, System…"

He paused for a moment… then smiled:

"Which door… has the strongest enemies?"
