Bab 1: Prologue
"Trash!"
"Cursed child! We don't need you here!"
"When you reach the appropriate age, you will leave this estate."
Ever since I was reincarnated and became this child's rune, these cruel words have been an unending chorus directed at her.
I despise those words. Do humans in this world understand compassion at all? They've already condemned my host as a cursed child, full of wickedness...
And for what reason? Her black hair.
She did nothing wrong! Her only sin? Being so kind-hearted that she didn't question the mistreatment she endured.
She saved her sister from bandits, yet she was blamed for it. She tried to explain, but was silenced by her mother's stubbornness. Her father, supposedly wise, merely squinted his eyes at her, a silent warning.
Why?! Why must these humans be so cruel?
But... my host remains so tolerant. She wouldn't even harm a mosquito. Even though she struggles, she is still human... Right?
Even without awakening her rune, she's still your child...
Why is this world so cruel? This isn't the contract I signed up for. This isn't the life I wished for.
Ellena possesses black hair and black eyes. That's where it all started.
But it was my fault; if I hadn't inhabited her body, she might have had ordinary hair and awakened her rune.
Her rune was a system, and I was the anomaly disrupting the world's logic.
I observed her from above, like a character in a game. For fifteen years, it was always like that. And now, her time has come. She'll be cast out, finally.
She carried a single backpack, helplessly. Nobody helped her; I was the only one always with her, yet I couldn't intervene. But I want to help her... even just once. However, she hadn't fully activated me, rendering my purpose as a system useless.
While walking to the market, hoping for an opportunity, she was kidnapped.
Really? This life is so full of madness. Heaven?! What did she do to deserve this kind of treatment?
This isn't a new experience; this is just punishment.
How will you make this kid the savior of the world?!
She was violently tortured. Because no one wanted to buy her, her life as a slave became even worse than her life on that estate.
...
It's been almost a year, but she still hasn't felt free... I want to cry... But I can't... I just can't endure this anymore. She was caged in this dark room, like prison bars in front of her. She was treated like an animal.
I want to kill them!
Those slave traders! They don't deserve to live!
Ellena, just wait. I will save you. Even if it takes my entire lifetime to activate, I must do my job. I will save you. I promise. I will save you from this suffering, from this world! I WILL KILL THEM ALL FOR YOU.
Another month passed, and she was finally delivered. Not as a purchased slave, but as a labor slave used for heavy labor. But how can a 16-year-old girl do this? She can't even lift a stone. Her body was weak even before her birth.
She suffered, and I suffered as well. She was scolded and beaten because she couldn't do her job. She can't do it! Why do they still push her to this?
Everywhere in this world is cruel. We should clean up this world, shouldn't we, Ellena?
I am trying to talk with her, but she couldn't hear me. How long will this take? Her face is covered in bruises. Her once-white skin has darkened and become filthy. Her soiled clothes, hair, and face have become nearly unrecognizable. She doesn't look like a human anymore...
"Why do I deserve this life?"
Yes, Ellena. Question the heavens. Why? You have not committed any evil or wicked acts. Why do you deserve this?
"I was only longing for their love. I am also their child."
Yes, Ellena, you are also their child. They do not deserve to be called parents because they have neglected one of their children, who now requires additional assistance.
"Why do they see me as an evil being? I only have black hair."
Yes, Ellena, you only have black hair. But humans are foolish. They are not driven by curiosity; they fear new things. This world is trash. They are afraid of what they can't comprehend. This world shall taste your revenge, Ellena.
"Can someone help me? I want to die."
No, Ellena, you don't deserve to die. Those who cause you pain should perish. I will kill them. I'll make them suffer even more than they did to you.
"Then, can you make me live?"
Yes, Ellena, I'll save you.
When I realized she had responded to my remarks, I was stunned for a brief moment. She heard what I said? She answered me!
How? What happened?
"Can someone help me? I want to die."
Ah. That was it. I finally understand why she wasn't able to fully activate me. Because she didn't need me, her talents were not available, and because she didn't need them, she had me. This... is just...
Before I could speak, her rune on her right hand glowed. It shone with the same blue light as the rune. That rune represents me, the system. I am Aaron. I will help you, Ellena.
Ellena... I will help you... I promise.
"Ellena. Do you trust me?"
She looked at her glowing rune while listening to me. She nodded in response.
I can feel our connection, Ellena. I can finally help you. Ellena... I will save you. I can finally save you!
"Chant the word, status, esteemed host." My system nature has finally been activated. I spoke more like a program, but I don't care. As long as she has the strength, I don't care. I will just observe her from this place. Even if she can't see me, I don't care.
"Status."

A/N: I choose common words (but not too common) for readers to easily understand things. If you expected me to have a majestic word choice, forgive me. I'm only a simple writer who only wanted to show some unique ideas in my story.
If you ever get confused and later on question why things have become like that, continue reading. You will learn it soon, especially when it comes to personalities and traits.
