' ' is for Ren's thoughts

-

Ren felt warm, protected and safe.

He could feel his heartbeat slowly pump blood around his body, providing him with energy.

(Changing to Ren's POV)

'Where am I...?'

[You are currently inside your mother's womb]

'Oh, I see. So you're the system God has provided me?'

[Indeed]

'Do you have a name?'

[No. However, if you so wish to provide me with one, it would be appreciated]

'Hmmm... let's see... since you have a voice leaning more towards a female's, I'll call you Iris. Yeah. Iris. Has a nice ring to it if I do say so myself.' Ren thought.

[Understood. I shall now be called Iris.]

'So is the system the same as I had wished for Iris?'

[Yes]

'Let's test it then. Iris, display my status.'

After he had thought of the word, a blue box appeared inside of his mind.

[ Name: Ren (temporary)

Age: 0 (currently 5 months into the fetal stage)

Sex: Male

(STR) Strength: 0

'Huh?! Wait, why isn't there anything about cultivation?' Ren asked Iris, filled with confusion.

[The power of cultivation is an extremely powerful skill in this world. Too powerful in fact. This is why it is currently not available. However, you may be able to start cultivating after you gain enough SP]

Iris explained.

'I see. Well, it makes sense.' Ren thought to himself.

'Iris, what do I do now?'

[You although you cannot officially cultivate as of yet, there are a few available meditation manuals that you're able to use so that you can bring up your Soul to aid you when you do start cultivating.]

'Thanks, Iris.'

[It is my pleasure to serve you, Ren]

'Iris, please open the shop.' Ren asked politely (you must always be polite of course).

[Understood. Displaying affordable meditation manuals]

[Shop]

[Peace and Harmony Manual:

Cost: 100 Shop Points]

'Huh... Hey Iris what's with the last manual?' Ren questioned.

[That manual was created by the system with information about meditation and Soul]

'Why is it so expensive?' Ren inquired.

[This is because it can be upgraded and you are able to reach a stage of semi-transcendence. However, the effects and effectiveness of the manual are unknown and the figures displayed on the manual are unknown so it may be risky. Also, keep in mind that you're also not able to reap the benefits of Constitution as of yet because you haven't been born yet and changing your Constitution too early may cause problems for both you and your brother.]

'Guess I'll choose that one then, as they say, no risk, no reward. Screw it!'

Ren chose to buy the meditation Manual.

[Are you sure? Y/N]

Ren mentally took a deep breath and thought 'Yes.'

[Affirmative. Extracting 100 SP... Ding!]

'AAARRRRRGGHHHH!!!' Ren inwardly screamed.

A stabbing pain invaded his head as he could feel a flow of information force itself inside of his mind, causing an immense amount of pain for Ren. Granted, it wasn't as bad as before when he had gotten all of his wishes granted as once, it still hurt like hell. The pain eventually subsided as Ren felt exhausted and fatigued.

'Why didn't you warn me, Iris...?' Ren questioned.

[It wasn't in my programmi-]

'It was that old goddamn f*cking God wasn't it,' Ren interrupted.

[...]

[I cannot say]

'I swear to f*cking God... Wait no! I swear to... ARRGHH! Whatever! I'm just going to beat that stupid sinister God when I see him! I swear I can already see him laughing his ass off now...' Ren lamented. Still cursing God in his head.

Suddenly, Ren could feel a small movement.

Although it was small, he still noticed it.

He started to slowly move closer to the movement, eventually reaching it.

It was another person. A baby to be exact. His twin. Peter Parker.

Ren smiled. He could feel a connection to him. It made him feel in a sense... complete.

Ren moved closer and their bodies touched each other, providing each other love and warmth.

He gradually lifted his arms as both of their hands interlocked with each other and they were holding hands.

Ren felt his mind get even more tired. Even more sluggish. So much so that he felt like going to sle-...

-Time Skip, 3 months -

Whilst waiting for the 3 months to pass until he was finally born, he had completed a few missions like lightly kicking his mother's (Mary Parker) stomach which earned him 10 Shop Points and spent most of the time practising meditation and embracing Peter. He had painstakingly only gained a total of 10 Soul, 7 Constitution and 4 Instinct from meditation alone. After the increase in Soul, he had noticed something. He felt... more full? Like he was becoming more in tune with his body. It felt weird. Anyways, this was his current status:

[Name: Ren (temporary)

Age: 0 (currently 9 months into the fetal stage, ready to be born)

Sex: Male

(STR) Strength: 0.4 (still a baby)

(VIT) Vitality: 6

(CON) Constitution: 8

(DEX) Dexterity: 0

(INT) Intelligence: 60

(INST) Instinct: 4

(Changing to Ren's POV)

I could feel myself moving slowly descending downwards towards my mother's... exit point, getting ready to be born. I felt nervous and uncomfortable. All of a sudden, I could feel something contracting, trying to push me. I subconsciously complied and tried to move with the force that was ejecting me. I felt suffocated and it was hard to breathe or even move. I felt trapped.

After a few hours of pushes, I was almost out.

'OOWWW!' everything hurt as I found myself wailing and crying.

I felt the weakest I have ever felt in my entire life. I felt... so fragile. My skin, eyes, everything was sensitive and hurt. I could feel myself covered in blood and a strange birth mucus. It made me feel weird and slightly disgusted. If that wasn't bad enough, the weird mucus covered my eyes made my vision blurry whilst a blinding light made my eyes sting. After a few seconds, I adjusted to the light and was finally able to look around me.

I saw that I was in a hospital. Filled with medicine, monitors, nurses and doctors that surrounded the scene. I was swiftly taken by a pair of hands, who cleaned me, wiping me down softly with a towel, cutting my umbilical cord, which it hurt like hell btw, measuring me, weighing me, testing me, and finally placing me on top of my mother.

I could hear crying as well and I knew it was my brother. Peter Parker. He went through the same procedure as me as he was also placed on top of mom.

She was beautiful. She had short hair and piercing night eyes which radiated under the light. She was covered in sweat, which was to be expected, after all, she had just given birth. She held both of us close and started talking.

"Hey there little guys...! It's me, your mom! Let's be a happy family together..." she said this whilst crying, making me crawl a bit closer to her and hug her which Peter also did the same. Prompting her to laugh and cry out of happiness.

I looked around to see my father (Richard Parker) slightly tearing up with a happy and emotive expression on his stern face. He had a well-chiselled face with dark hair. He also looked pretty built as well which made sense considering he was an agent of shield after all.

It was then were my eyes started to change.

The doctors were quick to take notice of the change of eye-colour and took me to do a couple of tests and they determined it to just be a rare variant case of heterochromia

(when people develop two-colours in their eyes, though Ren has more, I couldn't find the word for it so I'll just temporarily call it this until I can find the real name xD).

My father and mother were relieved to know that nothing was wrong with their son.

"Your eyes are so beautiful. Like jewels. Hmmm... Let's call you... Jade. Jade Parker," my mother exclaimed with glee.

I lightly cooed and giggled to express my satisfaction.

"It seems he likes the name," said my father, Richard Parker.

"Of course he does! I named him after all," boasted my mother.

"Hmm... Ok love,' chuckled my father as he lightly kissed my mother.

"I'll name our youngest one Peter. Peter Parker," said my mother.

"As you wish my darling," my father complied.

- Time Skip, 2 days-

(A/N: I'm trying not to make him too OP right off the bat but it's a much harder temptation than I had thought lol.)

After two days of testing and keeping both us and our mother healthy, we were finally able to go home.

We were seated gently into a double baby carriage (which was pretty comfortable) and were able to get a quick look at the city, and I had to admit. It was beautiful.

Compared to where I had lived before, living in Marvel's New York City was simply heavenly.

It had dozens of skyscrapers littered around the area and one was just starting its construction for it to be built. (A/N: which building is in construction I wonder...)

There was a surprising amount of greenery and an array of beautiful parks.

The entire vibe there was relaxing and busy at the same time which was quite nice as well, further enhancing its beauty.

After the little tour, we were taken to our new home. It was a large two-story house decorated with ancient antiques, art and furniture. It was quite a large house, containing many rooms, a study and a mini-library. It was my new home... no our new home.

- Time Skip, 6 months -

In the past 6 months, there has only been one thing that I have dreaded. Breastfeeding.

I hated it. Other than the fact that I'm a fully-grown man inside of a baby's body and has the same mind as one, it was the fact that it felt like incest and I'm not into my own mother ok!?

I was and still am a normal functioning citizen of society...

Other than that, it was quite nice. I had received quite a lot of affection from my previous parents, but most Asian parents (not all) were quite reserved and showed love in moderation.

My current parents showered me in affection almost every day which kind of overbearing but you get used to it quite quickly.

Other than that, I've been using the training function in the system. Not a lot, considering I'm still a developing baby but I still tried to train. It gave me a few physical and vocal exercises that I had to do every day and it increased my Strength and Constitution a little as well.

Seriously though, all of those other novels are so misleading! How can a baby possibly be already running around and speaking fully developed sentences at like 6 months!?

I've trained and I can walk for a day but it's so hard and I can barely speak a few sentences without straining my vocal cords.

Obviously, I've done it in secret because I don't think my parents would come home expecting their 6-month-old baby to be talking and walking around the house.

Meditation has also improved a lot of my stats as well.

These are my current stats:

[Name: Jade Parker

Age: 6 months

Sex: Male

(STR) Strength: 3.2 (still a developing baby)

(VIT) Vitality: 13

(CON) Constitution: 17

(AG) Agility: 0

(DEX) Dexterity: 0

(INT) Intelligence: 60

(INST) Instinct: 12

Mana: 0

Soul: 45

Wisdom: 5

(SP) Shop Points: 50

Peter's also been bugging me quite a lot.

I love him to death but it's really annoying since he always tries to reach for my eyes and seems to stare at it all the time. I honestly don't know if one day I'll wake up to find myself blind...

I hope not...

Anyway, there's been one thing that I've thought about the most.

My parent's deaths.

After 3 years and six months, they would have a terrible plane accident resulting in their deaths. I knew that their deaths would be a major plot development in the story for the birth of spiderman, but what could I do...? They're my parents and after 6 months of being with them, I knew I couldn't lose them...

I needed to figure out some kind of plan to save them...

I still had 3 years so I'd have a lot of time I guess.

[Quest: Save your parents

Time limit: 3 years and 6 months

Rewards: ??? + Your parents live]

******

EDIT:

I also forgot to tell you guys that I don't really know a lot about the Marvel plot other than a few basic plot-lines and stuff that I picked up from other novels so my story will definitely contradict with the actual story. I'm also watching some Marvel movies right now to remember the story-line lol.

NEW EDIT: Just re-read everything and tweaked a few things. I'm just gonna edit these first few chapters first and then create a new chapter when I can. But the main issue I have rn is that I don't really remember how the marvel lore goes so I'll try and watch a few movies then continue but if it's wrong, that's why.

:P


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
Aaron1642 Aaron1642

Just saying, the reason why Ren or Jade now, is so quick to accept the system is because he basically designed it in his head when God read his mind and created it. Just wanted to say this before people might start asking.
