This looks like a different story from the previous one, featuring a new protagonist named Arthur. Here is the transcription for these two pages.
### **Chapter One: Unfair Reincarnation? Not! The Supreme Upgrade System**
Arthur always felt like life had been a little unfair to him, even when he had died it was not at the hands of truck-kun, nor van-kun, not even small car-kun or skooter-kun, but by drone-kun who'd scared him off a pretty tall bridge. He thought his luck had turned around after being reincarnated only to end up as a bootleg Sasuke but without the powers. The body he had been reborn into was not all that complete, it was practically crippled with a missing right arm from the shoulder and a blinded left eye, all of this a result of a freak accident involving a richie brat that used his influence to sweep it all under the rug. Thankfully the silencing money paid off his medical bills and even paid for some really techie prosthetics that gave him even the smallest semblance of normalcy. The stiff and clunky mechanical prosthetic worked via control of nerve endings on the stump of his right shoulder, the highly experimental artificial eye was even more complex yet didn't really work other than giving blurry images of black and white, that weren't even in real time. All of this his family wouldn't be able to afford even if they went to court. And to top it all off the world had just experienced a cataclysm and Dungeons sprouting all sorts of monsters appeared out of the woodworks, thats right a freaking apocalypse. Maybe in a normal world he would've lived a normal life, but now as a cripple in an apocalyptic era, he was as good as dead. It all began the day before graduation, where the students were on their most high excited and saying their final goodbyes. Arthur was also amongst them yet he had an obviously smaller circle of friends, they were a bunch of delinquents and social outcasts so there was no judgement or ridicule amongst them, that's why they got along so well. Their group was made of Arthur the Cripple, Luic the Folly, Brea the Clutz, Chris the Unruly and Don the Useless. All five sporting their own quirky dysfunctionality that either made others look down on them or simply unbearable to deal with. *Sigh* Arthur couldn't help but sigh as he gazed out the window, the city scape outside was a scene of chaos, fires broke out creating columns of smoke, gunshots and explosions wrung out as the military, public security and even armed civilians confronted the enemy. What was this enemy you may ask, monsters. Yes the monsters out of tall tales and bit fiction. Be it zombies, beasts, goblins, ogres, etc. These monsters popped out from stone gates that popped right out of the ground, to which people took to calling dungeons. Unfortunately several of these had popped up on campus simultaneously resulting in a force confrontation. It would've been a complete bloodbath if humans hadn't gained something from this whole situation. That's right along with the apocalypse came the evolution of mankind and people began to manifest supernatural abilities. Arthur had noticed three types of abilities so far, Augmentation, Transformation and Illusion. On top of that the rate of evolved humans to non-evolved is fairly high, maybe 3 out of every 10 individuals. Arthur wasn't so lucky to be amongst that fraction however he seemed to have awakened something else. **{Ding! Supreme Upgrade System is now available} {Unlocked Functions: [Upgrade (Special)] [Analysis] [Decomposition] [Inventory]} {[Upgrade (Special): Capable of upgrading, enhancing and modifying non-organic entities infinitely with the use of resources]} {[Analysis: Provides data on living and non-living material]} {[Decomposition: Upon contact can break down materials to its parent form]} {[Inventory: Storage space only capable of holding non-living entities]}** Suddenly Arthur didn't feel unlucky any more and glanced at his clunky prosthetic arm and used Analysis.

The description was fairly on point despite the fact it cost nearly half an average house's mortgage. Wow the Artificial eye was even worse, so much so that the system itself wouldn't lower itself to comment. Thankfully Arthur and his group chose just the right place to hide out when the dungeons broke out. EA campus research centre, West Sector Five. A state institute supported with high government funds, the research divisions of the university were always stacked with raw materials needed to conduct research and experimentation. Unfortunately they were all stored in accordance to their respective departments so the materials he needed would be in the engineering and chemistry departments, on the other hand he was in the medical department. "Luic" Arthur called out to the folly. "Whats up?" Luic asked without taking his eyes off the window. "Can you get me to block G?" Arthur asked causing everyone in the room to look at him stunned. "Are you kidding, it's a fucking war zone out there!" Chris shouted before Luic could even answer. "I know but there are things there that can atleast make us stronger" Arthur explained. "Your serious?" Brea asked hopefully. "Positive, so Luic, you down?" Arthur asked. "If thats the way you wanna go I'm down, just stick to me the big bro will protect you." Luic said arrogantly causing the entire group to roll their eyes but they knew he was right, after all Luic had been the only one to awaken an ability amongst them. "Then do we leave now?" Don asked. "Nah, gather all the medicine and medical equipment first, it'll be useful in the future if this world goes to complete shit." Arthur said, and with the always lazy Don keeping an eye out the rest of them they gathered all the medicines and cold storage chemicals, even the expensive high tech equipment such as microscopes and computers used in research. "Uh, you don't really expect us to haul this shit around right?" Chris asked slightly scared for her unruly nature. "Don't worry, I got it" Arthur waved as all the items were put into his inventory and the room went silent. "Ah fuck even you." Chris exclaimed in outrage, both Luic and Arthur awakened abilities yet her the most athletic out of all of them hadn't, and it pissed her off. "Uh chill out, your time will come" Arthur chuckled and patted her shoulder with his remaining hand. "Shut up go to Black Beard!" Chris grumbled to which Arthur laughed, its what she started calling him after he started wearing an eye patch. "Ready guys?" Luic asked and the group nodded, they all wielded bats, pipes or makeshift spears, Luic only with several boxes of nails. "Let's go." With that they slowly snuck out of the room. "Crap!" - "Fuck!" Everyone exclaimed at their bad luck coz the moment they entered the corridor a [sic] Kobold appeared down the hallway. "Take this motherfucker!" Luic shouted and threw a nail which accelerated mid-air and curved right into the Kobold's forehead killing it instantly. "Incoming" Don warned as two more came from the opposite corridor. "Fuck me, I've had enough of them" Chris she exclaimed and charged with her bat.
