《A Misleading Shell》The Point of View of ???
Advertisement
The POV of ???:
It was a casual day like any other.
[Operation started.]
A metallic voice sounded in my head.
[Taking control of the host.]
It said something in a language I didn't understand.
[The game is still in the preparation period. Authority not fully acquired.]
I noticed that I wasn't able to control my body anymore.
I couldn't move.
I could only have thoughts.
It's been a couple of weeks since this weird 'System' as it calls itself had taken control of me. I just turned 8 years old today, my family were celebrating my birthday. This 'System' has perfectly replaced me, it can imitate my personality, my habits and even the way I talk. Thus, no one has noticed anything out of the ordinary about me.
I felt despair and was scared at first however I'm just bored now. It's like I'm living my life normally but instead of having to move my body and do the things I need to do, someone else was doing it for me.
After some months of living with System, I learned some words from the language it was using, not many, but I could understand it better.
Today System acted weird. It was something about 'Variable'
[Variable detected. Variable detected.]

...
[Not enough authority to execute Death sentence.]
'System' repeated this cycle over and over again over the next hours, I could feel his urgency despite his cold voice.
I was happy about it, he was finally suffering a bit. I have been taken control of for a long time. Whoever this 'Variable' is, they could be my saviour.
[The target is gaining resistance to mental attacks.]
[It is estimated to be better to stop executing commands.]
[Variable threat level is exceeding calculations.]
...
[Used too much energy; going into hibernation]
I can finally move on my own! Whoever this 'Variable' is, thank you!
Is it over?
And the answer to that question is... No.
[Main story beginning; authority fully acquired.]
No! Why again!
[Chapter one: A Bloody Massacre: Guiding demonic beasts to protagonist 1's village.]
[Protecting protagonist 1.]
[Reinacting trauma; killing protagonist 1's parents to maximize hatred towards demonic beasts.]
