<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
A tall teenager, standing at approximately 6'3", with black hair and warm brown eyes, was focused on a game and wearing a headset, talking with some friends.
"Alright, everyone, it's getting late. I'll catch up on more Battlefield 4 with y'all tomorrow" Alex said, opting to retire for the night as the hour grew late, especially with the dark looming prospect of a school day ahead. Each of Alex's friends bid their farewells with casual "Byes" and "See you tomorrow" blissfully unaware that this marked Alex's final night before an unforeseen tragedy.
Powering down his ps4, Alex moved to a corner of his room where a small shrine was found. There, he wished good night, surrounded by old photographs depicting his father, mother, grandparents, and adoptive sister.
Alex, the only child of his family, experienced a terrible loss from the very start of his birth. Tragically, his mother passed away during his birth, and three of his grandparents had already passed away before his arrival. The only surviving grandparent he had was on his mother's side.
During his younger years, Alex's grandmother assumed the caretaker role for him and his adoptive sister, given that their father, a U.S. soldier, was frequently away on deployments. Despite the physical distance, Alex harbored deep admiration and love for his father. When he grew up, he wanted to be just like his father, strong and tough
But the tide of tragedy struck again when news arrived that Alex's father had succumbed to an enemy ambush while returning to base with his squad. This left Alex, his sister, and their grandmother to navigate life challenges without their father. However, when Alex turned 17, his grandmother passed away, leaving him and his sister as the last remnants of their family.
After bidding goodnight to his family and sending a text to his sister, who was currently on a trip to Japan, Alex sleepily set an alarm on his phone before finally settling into bed. Just as he was on the cusp of sleep, the blare of a truck horn pierced the night, followed by a deafening bang, and then everything turned black.
Alex's mind struggled to comprehend the surreal turn of events, leaving him disoriented and bewildered. It took approximately 10 minutes for the reality to sink in, as he grappled with the shocking revelation.
"Did I just die? What the actual fuck... how did a truck hit me? I was on the third floor of the apartment building!" Alex exclaimed, a mix of anger and sorrow permeating his voice as he grappled with the incredulity of his sudden demise.
After roughly 10 minutes of trying to regain composure, Alex began to scrutinize his surroundings, although the inky blackness provided little visual information. It was during this examination that he made a cool but weird discovery – his own body was transparent.
"Whoa, I can see through myself. That's kinda cool, I guess," he mused aloud, though a sense of boredom and mild unease crept in as he pondered the potential eternity in this void. "Shouldn't there be some kind of ROB or something like a god?"
To his surprise, a disembodied voice responded, "You are very much correct, young man. You can say that I am a ROB. Anyways, you should already know what will happen. Oh, and before you say anything, you will keep your memories and never return back to Earth. You also have three wishes, so use them wisely. Also, I will limit how strong your wishes will be."
Alex strained to identify the source of the voice, but he couldn't find anything else other than the void, leaving him to grapple with the newfound knowledge that he had an otherworldly entity or force offering him a unique opportunity.
The mysterious voice continued, "You won't be able to see me, boy. Your simple eyes can't perceive me. Oh, and there will be a special surprise for you once I reincarnate you." The voice of the unknown ROB left Alex perplexed, his attempts to locate the source proving useless.
Mixed emotions flooded Alex as the reality of never returning home sank in, yet a glimmer of hope emerged with the prospect of three wishes. After contemplating the vast possibilities for about 10 minutes, Alex stated his wishes.
"For my first wish, I want a system that allows me to summon anything I want, like people or creatures from games, anime, and movies. For my second wish, I want to harness all types of energies, such as mana, Ki, chakra, and others. And for my final wish, I want an unlimited energy pool," Alex declared, his aspirations for power and versatility evident in his carefully chosen wishes.
Alex, having expressed his three wishes, felt a surge of nervous anticipation as the mysterious voice remained silent. The tension lifted when the voice finally responded, albeit with slight adjustments to each wish.
"For your first wish, I will allow it, but you will need tokens to summon. Your second wish is granted, but some energies will remain locked due to their potency, and you'll need to make contact with the specific energy/affinity to control it. As for your final wish, instead of an unlimited energy pool, you'll receive a massive energy pool." the mysterious voice explained.
Despite the tweaks, Alex remained genuinely pleased that his wishes were granted, expressing gratitude to the unseen force. "Thank you very much for granting my wishes." he repeated, recognizing the rarity and significance of this once-in-a-lifetime event.
"It's time for you to leave. Have fun on your journey, and be careful. Hopefully, you will like my little surprises" The mysterious voice bid farewell to Alex and opened a portal beneath him.
Alex attempted to respond, but before he could articulate anything, he felt a force pulling him downward. As the sensation intensified, he passed out.
After an indeterminate span of time, Alex regained consciousness as a portal ejected him into a new world. As his senses came back, the first realization dawned on him – he could see in all directions.
[What is happening? Why can I see all around me? Where am I?] Countless questions raced through Alex's mind, a whirlwind of confusion stemming from the recent and current events.
The multitude of occurrences left him grappling with the challenge of processing the extraordinary circumstances unfolding around him.
After calming himself down, he finally noticed that he couldn't move, Alex tried to get his body to move but nothing happened so he tried to open up the system.

"So that surprise was me becoming a dungeon core," Alex uttered, a strange calmness in his voice as the reality sank in. However, this composed demeanor quickly shattered, replaced by a torrent of yells and curses directed at no one in particular. The revelation of his transformation from a human into a dungeon core left him grappling with a mix of emotions.
He lost his ability to walk, breath, eat and all the stuff people can do. Now, all he could do was see and hear.
After the emotional outburst, Alex gradually regained composure. Determined to understand his new existence, he redirected his focus toward examining his surroundings. The realization of being a dungeon core prompted him to explore the intricacies of his domain and the potential challenges that lay ahead.
