…
Staring at the system interface that only he could see, Adrian Vale frowned slightly and muttered to himself.
"Strange… why is there so much garbled text? Did the language patch fail?"
To his eyes, the system panel in front of him was filled with glitches.

…
He had transmigrated, yet his supposedly essential cheat system came with a built-in bug.
Naturally, Adrian wasn't too pleased.
Unfortunately, even if he wanted to contact customer support for a replacement, there was no one to respond.
"Well… guess I'll just have to make do."
Back when he used to play foreign games without official translations—or even fan-made patches—he had often forced his way through the raw version anyway.
Fortunately, the issue didn't seem too serious for now.
At the very least, the beginner rewards had been successfully delivered.
Adrian stared at the system panel, trying to piece together its meaning from the fragments of readable words buried within the garbled mess.
Words like "defeat," "submit," and "conquer" stood out.
Combined with the effects of the starter package, the conclusion became obvious.
Maxed-out charm?
Clearly meant for recruiting subordinates.
Maxed physical strength?
That was for charging into battle personally.
And that "Insight" skill?
No need to think twice—standard equipment for conquest-type systems, used to check loyalty.
There was no doubt about it.
This cheat ability of his—
Was definitely a war system.
Adrian walked toward a nearby lake and reached up to remove his helmet.
Looking down, he saw his reflection.
A tall young man stood there, clad in magnificent gold-engraved plate armor, a crimson cape draped behind him. His black hair framed a sharp, heroic face.
His features were already handsome, but under the influence of the mysterious "????" trait, his entire presence now radiated an overwhelming charm that made it impossible to look away.
After examining himself for a moment, Adrian nodded.
"Not bad. Still my original face."
He had transmigrated physically.
Even the expensive full-body armor he had custom-made under the excuse of "cosplay" had come along with him.
He bounced lightly on the spot, testing his body and sensing the changes.
Soon, his eyes lit up.
His hobbies had always included historical combat training and collecting armor and weapons. His physical condition had already been exceptional—comparable to that of professional athletes.
But now, with the "Perfect Physique" trait, he could clearly feel that his body had become vastly stronger.
Scanning his surroundings, Adrian found a tree about as thick as a child's waist and several meters tall.
He grabbed it with both hands and pulled.
The next moment—
The ground churned violently.
The roots beneath the soil snapped with a series of cracking sounds as they were forcibly torn apart.
Just like that, the tree was uprooted.
The tree itself wasn't huge, but with its trunk, branches, and leaves, it still weighed around five to six hundred kilograms.
And when factoring in the resistance between the roots and the soil…
The required force became even more terrifying.
Roughly estimated—
At least four to five tons.
Only now did Adrian truly understand how exaggerated the description of "a body comparable to divine bloodlines" really was.
If he went all out, his strength would likely exceed five tons.
That was practically on par with a small modern excavator.
"…Well, maybe that's not the best comparison."
After all, even the legendary staff of Sun Wukong weighed just over six tons.
Comparing himself to construction machinery somehow felt a bit underwhelming.
In any case—
Possessing such raw strength in a human body was undeniably absurd.
As long as this wasn't some high-magic or high-martial world, it should be more than enough.
Adrian was very satisfied with his starter package.
At the same time, he decided to begin working toward the mission assigned by the system.
Since it was a war system, then the main objective was obvious—
To unify the world.
It was simple.
Just three steps.
First, obtain funds and recruit a force.
Second, wage war and seize territory.
Third, unify everything under his rule.
…
For some reason, the system had placed his starting point deep within a remote forest instead of a town or village.
Adrian had no food or supplies.
Right now, his top priority was to leave this place and find civilization.
There were no signs of human activity nearby.
Without a map or system guidance, he could only pick a direction at random and start moving.
As long as he kept going straight, he would eventually make his way out.
The forest path was far from easy to traverse.
Especially since Adrian was still wearing his heavy, custom-made full plate armor.
This armor, crafted with modern techniques, was the real deal.
Helmet, pauldrons, breastplate, thigh guards, plus chainmail underneath—
Altogether, it weighed over thirty kilograms.
For an average modern person, wearing this would already be exhausting after a short time.
Even before transmigrating, Adrian—despite his athletic physique—would have struggled to keep it on for long.
But now, everything was different.
With the "Perfect Physique" trait, he had undergone a complete transformation.
He might not even count as fully human anymore.
He had no magic.
No supernatural abilities.
Yet his raw physical strength had reached an astonishing level.
Even while wearing over thirty kilograms of armor—
He felt no burden at all.
He could even move swiftly through the dense forest without any hindrance.
