In a room filled with uncertainty, a young man named Tom Rizzler found himself sitting on the edge of a worn-out bed.
Confusion and disbelief consumed his thoughts as he tried to comprehend his inexplicable situation.
"Where am I? Didn't I die after being hit by a truck? How am I still alive?" Tom questioned aloud, his voice filled with a mixture of astonishment and disbelief.
Tom's mind raced with memories of the accident that had taken place just moments ago.
As he had been on a routine grocery run, a speeding truck had collided with him, leaving him for dead.
Yet, here he was, seemingly unscathed, in a place that he couldn't quite fathom.
Uncertain of whether this was all a dream or a strange twist of fate, Tom rose from the bed and made his way to the bathroom.
Standing before the mirror, toothbrush in hand, he was confronted with a startling revelation.
The reflection staring back at him was not his own.
It was the face of a stranger, a young man who shared his name but possessed an entirely different existence.
The floodgates of memories opened wide, revealing the life of the body he now inhabited.
This Tom Rizzler, a mere twenty years old, had experienced a series of unfortunate events.
Orphaned at a tender age due to a fatal car accident that claimed the lives of his parents, he had been taken in by an elderly couple who had since passed away.
Questions swirled in Tom's mind, each one more perplexing than the last.
How had he come to inhabit this body? Was it a twist of fate or a divine intervention? "Could it be that God got the wrong person, As far as i know I'm not a good person in my past life" Tom pondered, his voice laced with a mix of wonder and skepticism.
Completing his morning routine, Tom settled onto the couch, seeking solace in the familiar glow of the television screen.
However, his attention was quickly captured by a breaking news headline that flashed across the screen, leaving him dumbfounded.
"Tony Stark, CEO of Stark Industries, reported kidnapped in Afghanistan," the headline blared, sending shockwaves through Tom's already bewildered mind.
A realization dawned upon him, one that seemed too fantastical to comprehend.
"Am I now a part of the Marvel universe?" Tom exclaimed, his voice filled with equal parts excitement and trepidation.
The thought of being reincarnated into a world of superheroes and villains, where the laws of physics and reality were bent, was both exhilarating and daunting.
But as Tom's excitement grew, so did his apprehension.
"What am I going to do? I've only watched a few Marvel movies. I hope I'm not in the comic book versions. I've heard they can be far more challenging than the movies," Tom muttered, his voice tinged with concern.
The weight of the Marvel universe's vastness and complexity settled upon Tom's shoulders.
He pondered his own capabilities in this new reality. "I don't possess any extraordinary powers, nor am I blessed with immense wealth like Tony Stark," he lamented, his voice filled with a hint of despair.
Recalling the stories he had read and the movies he had watched, Tom knew that the Marvel universe was a realm where the poor relied on mutation and the rich harnessed the power of technology.
"I find myself in a precarious situation. But wait, don't the protagonists in the novels I've read possess their own systems, guiding them through their extraordinary journeys?" Tom wondered aloud, a glimmer of hope returning to his voice.
Suddenly, as if in response to his desperate plea, a melodious chime resonated through the room.
"Ding!"
a notification sounded, capturing Tom's attention.
"The Anime system has awakened due to the host's strong emotions,"
the notification declared, its words echoing with a sense of promise.
A surge of excitement coursed through Tom's veins as he realized that he had stumbled upon his own guiding force.
"This is it! This is what I've been waiting for!" he exclaimed, his voice brimming with newfound determination.
Eager to understand the extent of his newfound abilities, Tom wasted no time in questioning the system.
"What can you do?" he asked, his voice filled with curiosity and anticipation.
In response, the system chimed once again, revealing its vast potential.
"The system can grant the host items and abilities of different anime characters using shock points,"
it explained, its words resonating with a sense of limitless possibilities.
Intrigued, Tom sought further clarification.
"How can I earn these shock points?" he inquired, his voice laced with a mix of determination and eagerness.
The system, ever obliging, provided the answer.
"The host can earn shock points by shocking others with their actions,"
it revealed, its words igniting a spark of creativity within Tom's mind.
But Tom's thirst for knowledge was insatiable.
He yearned for more, hoping to uncover any additional advantages that the system might offer.
"Do I have any beginner benefits?" he asked, his voice filled with a glimmer of hope.
Once again, the system responded with a resounding
"Ding!"
"The system is giving a gift pack to the host... 1 free draw,"
it announced, its words carrying a sense of excitement and possibility.
A surge of anticipation coursed through Tom's veins as he prepared to embark on this extraordinary journey.
