Origin of the Infinite Worlds
Chapter 3 – The First Awakening
Part 1
Inside the classroom, the teacher was teaching.
Writing equations on the board.
Students were writing in their notebooks.
Everything was very normal.
But Zerion's mind wasn't on the lesson.
His gaze kept drifting toward Luna, who was sitting beside him.
Even he didn't understand why.
Luna was sitting very calmly.
Her eyes were on the board.
But there was something strange about her presence.
As if the air around her was slightly different.
Zerion forced himself to focus again.
Right then—
That mechanical voice echoed in his head again.
System scanning…
Zerion's hand stopped.
He leaned down and whispered—
"Who are you?"
No one heard him.
But inside his head, the voice responded again.
Host detected.
Identity: Zerion
A tremor ran through his chest.
He slowly looked around.
No one noticed anything.
The class continued normally.
Zerion whispered again—
"Why are you inside my head?"
A few seconds of silence.
Then—
System initializing…
Suddenly, a transparent blue screen appeared in front of his eyes.
As if it was floating in the air.
But no one else could see it.
Only Zerion.
Words appeared on the screen—
SYSTEM ONLINE
His heartbeat sped up.
He quickly closed his eyes.
But the screen didn't disappear.
Instead, it became even clearer.
Host: Zerion
Status: Stable
Energy: Sealed
Zerion held his breath.
"What is this?"
The System answered.
Host awakening process beginning.
Zerion said—
"Awakening?"
At that moment—
A strange energy suddenly surged inside his body.
As if fire was burning through his blood.
He quickly gripped the desk tightly.
For a brief moment, a strange glow appeared in his eyes.
Luna, who was sitting beside him, noticed it.
She frowned slightly.
Because she sensed a very faint energy coming from Zerion's body.
A very ancient power.
The bell rang, signaling the end of the class.
Students began standing up one by one.
But Zerion remained seated for a few seconds.
Because the screen in front of him still hadn't disappeared.
He slowly said—
"System… what are you?"
After a few seconds, the answer came.
I am the Origin System.
Zerion's body turned cold.
"Origin?"
The System spoke again.
My purpose is to guide the Host.
Zerion frowned.
"Guide me… why?"
The System stayed silent for a few seconds.
Then it said—
Because you are not an ordinary human.
Zerion laughed lightly.
"That sounds like something from a movie."
The System replied—
Truth does not change even if you doubt it.
Zerion stayed silent for a moment.
His head still felt slightly dizzy.
He slowly stood up.
Just then Luna looked at him and asked—
"Are you okay?"
Zerion paused slightly.
"Yeah… why?"
Luna stared into his eyes for a few seconds.
Then she said—
"Nothing."
But suspicion had already formed in her mind.
Because she clearly felt it—
Something inside Zerion was awakening.
And it was not something ordinary.
After leaving the classroom, Zerion walked through the corridor.
The transparent screen was still floating in front of his eyes.
He spoke quietly—
"System… am I the only one who can see this?"
The System replied—
Yes.
"No one else?"
Correct.
Zerion took a deep breath.
"Then what do you want me to do?"
The System stayed silent for a few seconds.
Then new words appeared on the screen.
First Mission Available
Zerion stopped walking.
His eyes widened.
The screen displayed—
Mission: Discover your true power
Reward: Partial Energy Unlock
Zerion whispered—
"My power?"
The System responded—
Your power has been sealed since your birth.
That strange vibration of energy surged inside his chest again.
Zerion doesn't know—
Where this System came from.
Why it chose him.
But one thing he can understand.
From now on, his life will never be normal again.
Because the power sleeping inside him…
Has begun to awaken.

Chapter 3 – The First Awakening
Part 2
The crowd of students in the school corridor was slowly decreasing.
Classes were over.
Everyone was busy with their own things.
Some were going to the cafeteria.
Some were heading to the field to play.
Others were preparing to go home.
But Zerion was standing at one side of the corridor.
The transparent blue screen was still floating in front of his eyes.
First Mission Available
He stared at it silently for a few seconds.
His heartbeat was slightly faster.
Because something like this had never happened in his life before.
He slowly whispered—
"System… what is this mission?"
After a few seconds of silence, new words appeared on the screen.
Mission Objective:
Discover the energy within your body.
Reward:
Partial Seal Break
Zerion frowned.
"What does Seal Break mean?"
The System replied—
Your true power is sealed.
Completing missions will gradually unlock it.
Zerion took a deep breath.
"My power…?"
He had never thought of himself as powerful.
He was just an ordinary student.
But the System was saying—
There was some kind of power hidden inside him.
Just then someone stopped beside him.
Luna.
She spoke calmly—
"Were you talking to someone?"
Zerion was slightly startled.
"No… why?"
Luna looked at him for a few seconds.
Her eyes were very deep.
As if she was searching for something inside Zerion.
"Because it looked like you were talking to someone."
Zerion smiled lightly.
"Maybe I was just talking to myself."
Luna didn't say anything.
But her suspicion grew stronger.
Because she could still feel a very faint energy coming from Zerion's body.
A power that felt very ancient.
Very strange.
As if it didn't belong to this world.
Luna slowly said—
"Do you ever feel like you're a little different from others?"
Zerion paused.
It was a question he had asked himself many times.
He replied quietly—
"Maybe."
Luna said nothing more.
She simply smiled faintly.
"Let's go to the cafeteria."
The two of them started walking together.
But Zerion's mind was somewhere else.
The System screen was still floating before his eyes.
He thought to himself—
"System… how do I start this mission?"
The System analyzed for a few seconds.
Then new words appeared on the screen—
Training Required
Recommended Location:
Quiet Area
Zerion said slowly—
"So I need to be alone?"
Correct.
He nodded.
Just then Arin ran toward them and said—
"Hey! Where are you two going?"
Zerion replied—
"To the cafeteria."
Arin laughed.
"Good, I'm starving!"
The three of them entered the cafeteria.
It was crowded with students.
The smell of food.
The sound of conversations.
Everything was completely normal.
But something else was happening inside Zerion's mind.
He took some food and sat down at a table.
While eating, Arin asked—
"Luna, which school were you in before?"
Luna replied calmly—
"In a city far away."
"Which city?"
Luna paused for a moment.
"You probably wouldn't know it."
Arin shrugged.
"Alright."
Zerion was eating quietly.
Right then—
He felt that strange vibration of energy inside his body again.
As if something deep within his chest was awakening.
The System spoke again—
Energy reaction detected.
Zerion trembled slightly.
Luna noticed it.
She asked quietly—
"Are you okay?"
Zerion nodded.
"Yeah."
But he himself knew—
Everything was not okay.
Because something inside him was changing.
After school ended, Zerion decided to go home alone.
Arin took another road.
Luna stood there watching Zerion for a moment.
There was a trace of concern in her eyes.
Because she could sense—
There was something inside Zerion that could be very dangerous.
And also very important.
Zerion walked down the road.
The sun was setting in the sky.
Red light spread across the surroundings.
He said quietly—
"System… I'll try tonight."
The System responded—
Mission accepted.
Zerion looked up at the sky.
A strange feeling was rising inside him.
As if the first door of his life was about to open.
Because tonight—
For the first time, he would face the power inside him.
Origin of the Infinite Worlds
Chapter 3 – The First Awakening
Part 3
Evening had slowly fallen.
The color of the sky had changed from orange to deep blue.
Street lights were turning on one by one.
Zerion was slowly walking home.
Only one thought was circling in his mind—
Mission.
The System had told him to discover the power within himself.
But he didn't know how.
He had never used any strange power.
He had never even thought of himself as special.
Yet the System said—
His power was sealed.
And completing the mission would break that seal.
Zerion took a deep breath.
"I'll try tonight."
After reaching home, he opened the door and walked inside.
His mother was in the kitchen.
"You're back?"
Zerion put down his bag and replied—
"Yeah."
His mother said—
"Dinner will be ready soon."
Zerion nodded and went to his room.
The room was quiet as always.
A desk.
Books.
And the night sky outside the window.
He placed his bag on the table and stood in front of the window.
Stars were shining in the sky.
Countless stars.
Whenever he looked at them, he always felt a strange sense of peace.
But tonight his mind was restless.
He slowly said—
"System…"
In an instant, the transparent blue screen appeared again in front of him.
System Online
Zerion said—
"How do I start?"
The System analyzed for a few seconds.
Then words appeared on the screen—
Sit and focus.
Feel the energy inside your body.
Zerion sat down on his bed.
He closed his eyes.
Complete silence filled the room.
The faint ticking of a clock in the distance.
He slowly began breathing.
The System spoke again—
Focus on your heart.
Zerion directed his attention toward his heart.
At first nothing happened.
Only the sound of his heartbeat.
Thump…
Thump…
Thump…
After a while, he felt a faint warmth.
As if a small fire was burning deep inside his chest.
He frowned slightly.
"Is this…?"
The System responded—
Energy detected.
Zerion focused even more.
The warmth slowly started increasing.
As if the small fire was growing bigger.
His breathing became heavier.
Suddenly—
That strange vision appeared before his eyes again.
An endless Void.
Countless galaxies.
Countless universes.
Zerion's body trembled.
He quickly opened his eyes.
The vision disappeared instantly.
He started breathing rapidly.
"I… I've seen that before…"
The System said—
Memory fragments detected.
Zerion was shocked.
"Memory…?"
The System replied—
Sealed memories reacting to energy awakening.
Zerion remained silent for a moment.
His mind was now filled with even more questions.
Then he closed his eyes again.
"Let's try again."
He focused on his heart once more.
This time the warmth increased much faster.
As if a stream of energy was flowing through his body.
His hands began to tremble slightly.
Right then—
A very faint light began to appear from his body.
A soft blue glow.
The room was dark.
So the light was clearly visible.
The System said—
Energy awakening at 1%.
Zerion was surprised.
"Only one percent?"
The System replied—
Your original power is immeasurable.
The fire inside his chest suddenly burned a little stronger.
Zerion clenched his teeth and tried to control the power.
Because it felt like the energy wanted to exceed the limits of his body.
After a few seconds—
Everything suddenly became calm.
The light disappeared.
The room was dark again.
Zerion slowly opened his eyes.
His body felt tired.
But his eyes were filled with amazement.
"I… actually did something."
The System responded—
Mission progress detected.
Words appeared on the screen—
Energy Control: 1%
Zerion took a deep breath.
He understood—
This was only the beginning.
The power inside him—
If even a tiny fraction of it awakened…
His life would completely change.
And tonight—
The first door of that journey had opened.

Chapter 3 – The First Awakening
Part 4
Silence once again filled the room.
Zerion was sitting on his bed.
His chest was still rising and falling slightly.
Because what had happened a few moments ago—
Was the strangest experience of his life.
He looked at his hands.
Nothing looked different.
But he knew—
Something inside him had changed.
The System appeared again in front of him.
A transparent blue screen.
Words appeared on the screen—
Mission Progress Updated
Zerion slowly said—
"System… did I really use power?"
The System replied—
Yes.
Energy awakening detected.
Zerion took a deep breath.
"But that was only one percent…"
The System stayed silent for a few seconds.
Then it said—
Your original power exceeds the limits of this world.
Hearing those words, Zerion became silent.
A strange feeling rose in his mind.
As if he had heard those words somewhere before.
But he couldn't remember where.
Just then—
That vision appeared again before his eyes.
An endless Void.
Countless universes.
A massive existence.
As if someone was creating creation itself.
Suddenly Zerion's head began to ache.
He grabbed his head and bent forward.
"Ah…!"
The System immediately said—
Memory Seal reacting.
After a few seconds, the pain slowly faded.
The vision disappeared as well.
Zerion slowly breathed in.
"What… did I just see?"
The System replied—
Fragments of sealed memories.
Zerion stayed silent for a few seconds.
Thousands of questions were spinning inside his mind.
But he understood—
He wouldn't get those answers right now.
Just then—
There was a knock on his door.
Knock knock.
Zerion was slightly startled.
His mother's voice came from outside—
"Dinner is ready."
Zerion replied—
"I'm coming."
The System screen slowly disappeared.
He stood up from the bed.
His body was still slightly tired.
But there was a strange excitement inside him.
He knew—
Tonight was the first step of his life.
He went downstairs and sat at the dining table.
His father was already sitting there.
His mother served the food.
Everything looked normal as always.
But Zerion knew—
The change inside him…
No one could see it.
His father asked—
"How was school today?"
Zerion replied—
"Good."
His mother asked—
"Did you make any new friends?"
Zerion paused for a moment.
"A new student joined."
His mother smiled.
"That's good."
After finishing dinner, Zerion returned to his room.
After entering the room, he stood in front of the window.
Countless stars were shining in the sky.
He kept looking at them.
Suddenly, a strange feeling appeared in his mind.
As if the stars recognized him.
As if he had some deep connection with this universe.
Right then—
The System activated again.
The screen appeared before him.
Mission Completed
Zerion's eyes widened.
Words appeared on the screen—
Reward Granted
Seal partially weakened
Suddenly—
That vibration of power appeared inside his chest again.
This time it was slightly stronger than before.
Zerion clenched his teeth and tried to control the power.
After a few seconds, the energy calmed down again.
The System said—
Energy Capacity Increased
Zerion slowly asked—
"What does that mean?"
The System replied—
Your awakening has begun.
Cold wind entered through the window.
Zerion kept looking at the sky.
There was a strange light in his eyes.
Now he knew—
His life would never be the same again.
Because the power sleeping inside him—
Was slowly awakening.
And one day—
That power would change the entire world.
And perhaps—
The entire Multiverse.
(°_°)
"The night Zerion awakened only 1% of his power… the sleeping Multiverse unknowingly took its first step toward chaos."
