Zayden looked at himself in the mirror. He checked his face, hair and his thing.
This is wrong. Why is it bigger than mine? We are supposed to be the same.
Zayden took a deep breath and washed his face. He left the bathroom and immediately arrived at his living room.
His current apartment was much larger than the previous one.
He stared at the ceiling for a good minute, drifting in thoughts.
The room was quiet. He occasionally heard his neighbor arguing with her parents.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated madly. He checked the phone and saw a bunch of red notifications coming off. He quickly closed the phone.
It was an alert of a newly formed dungeon near this place.
Zayden was not from this Earth. He had been a college student from Earth -Normal Earth- until his soul got transmigrated into this world.
He thought he arrived at the parallel world but his backstory was different. This world Zayden's parents were killed by the Dungeon outbreak.
Because of that, Zayden moved to another country. Currently he is in Korea, attending Seoul University, majoring in art.
Simply put, his life felt aimless.
Zayden sighed. " This is the world of solo leveling. I should be happy about it considering the fact that the world is relatively safe. Even if I die, Jinwoo will save me anyway."
As he was thinking about what to eat, an alert went on inside his head.
Ding!
[ Welcome to the system wheel.]
[ As a transmigrated human, you have the authority to spin the wheel.]
Zayden rubbed his eyes and checked, making sure that he was not losing his mind. He stood up and the screen followed. It was a translucent blue colour.
Zayden tried touching the screen but his finger passed through.
I must be hallucinating.
[ Do you want to spin the wheel?]
[ YES OR NO ]
Zayden sat down comfortably and said, " Yes."
I am not going to turn down my cheat. Besides my life will be boring if I don't awaken. In this world, strength matters a lot.
The screen then turned into a wheel. On the wheel were many different cheats. He was familiar with a few options. Sigh-in system. Cultivation talent.
Magic Mike system.
Gaming system.
Zayden didn't have the time to read all the prizes.
He lay down and watched as the wheel worked its magic.
It moved fast. Zayden rubbed his hands together, excited. From a brief glance, none of the cheats were weak.
He would reach the pinnacle of strength. Then he would live in a nice mansion and relax.
Five minutes passed but , the wheel showed no signs of slowing down. He took out his phone and started scrolling.
He watched some edits, laughed at the memes and argued with a random stranger about a topic he knew nothing about. He spent roughly two hours on the phone. He almost forgot the existence of the wheel.
Strange. It is not done yet.
Zayden's stomach growled. " I am getting hungry as well. I have not eaten breakfast yet. Should I order some food?" He said out loud. Sometimes he spoke to himself because he didn't want to stutter in front of other people.
He hated embarrassing himself over minor details.
Zayden finally decided on his meals and got up. He changed his clothes to a simple white t-shirt and black pants. He styled the top with the leather jacket he got from his deceased father.
He checked himself in the mirror and shoved the essentials into his pocket. A phone, wallet and the most important things are his key.
Zayden walked down using the stairs. The building he rented had an elevator but it was always shut down. With his budget, this was the only good place he could get.
On his way to the ground floor, he met with his neighbor from the left side. Zayden greeted her. She always gave him food.
As Zayden walked outside, the sun gleamed at him. He frowned and searched for something on his body.
Shit. I forget my sunglasses. I knew something was missing.
He looked back at the stairs and sighed.
He decided to walk under the sun. What should I eat? Ramen? Nah, I am not in the mood. I should try some light food.
Zayden headed outside, after walking for 5 minutes, he arrived at the main road. People moved like ants in a crowd swarm, and Zayden walked along the side.
On the billboard was a news lady talking about the recent gate incident and hunter's drama. There were a few pieces of idols.
Zayden saw a fast food restaurant and entered inside. He ordered a large burger and fries. He sat beside the window and started watching YouTube.
Normally, he watched video essays but this time he pulled out a hunter fighting video.
Hehe, I need to study then. This will be my life after this wheel finishes spinning.
Zayden finished his meals and the wheel didn't stop. Whatever, I will just do my things.
It was a weekend so there were no classes. He was free. Zayden got transmigrated here yesterday.
He was confused at first. He shivered as he recalled the experience. His mind was shattered into pieces, he couldn't even process a single thought let alone walk during that time.
It was not pleasant.
Zayden went to the library and started reading. As a major in art, he prioritized literature. Zayden read the books in the library.
He watched the wheel but nothing changed. He went home at 6 pm and the wheel didn't stop.
He showered and ate the foods he bought.
Nothing changed.
Zayden lay down on his bed, the night was cold so he covered himself with a blanket. He closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep but the wheel was spinning.
It didn't shut off. No matter how much he tried, it just stayed like that. He was going crazy.
Zayden kicked in the air and let out a long sigh. Fine. I will wait.
Zayden got out of the bed and pulled out a box of cigarettes he had hidden underneath. He then opened the door and started enjoying the night.
He didn't smoke frequently but there were times he wished to clear his mind. This was the time. He gazed at the bright moon.
That sucks.
Night passed in a flash. The morning sun began to rise.
The wheel also started to slow down. Zayden lit up a cigarette and started inhaling.
I wonder how Jinwoo is doing. It is 9 years after the gate started appearing. He should be struggling right now.
Then the wheel stopped. Zayden followed the small arrow and saw it landed on a particular system.
[ Congratulations for the host to obtain the Aura Farming system.]
[ System installation will start in 5 minutes. Please prepare.]
" Huh?"
