《Kain, The Apocalypse Overlord》Chapter 1 | Intro
Advertisement
Do you know that feeling of bliss when you are sleeping soundly, seemingly floating in a patch of clouds, comfortable and full of warmth... only to realize that you have to wake up.
???: Kain! Wake up!
The warmth and scenario of clouds cracked like a mirror, with a cold breeze managing to slip through the blanket.
Laying down on a bed was a young man seemingly sleeping, the cold breeze just now had caused him to shiver and hold the border of the blanket tighter to his body, before giving up and sitting on the bed with his eyes still closed, due to the grogginess of the wonderful sleep he was having.
Kain: hmmm.... w-why?
Still groggy, and his eyes remaining close shut, the young man answered with a weak voice to the manly, rough, and cold voice.
???: I am going on a business trip. I will be gone for 30 days.
The rough and emotionless voice sounded again from the distance, before a door slamming shook his ears and brought the young man a split headache for a short moment.
Kain: …. ok-k. "What the fuck!?"
Rubbing his eyes, a little, the young man, Kain, opened his eyes and peered at his surroundings.
A problem surged right there with him failing to recognize where he was. The shock of the situation was such that he failed to realize that he was already all alone in the room.
This was because the bedroom he was in... wasn't his own. In fact, it had no resemblance of any room he had been in before.
Kain: "Where the fuck am I? Who was that!? AND! Why the fuck am I only in my underwear!?!"
He immediately thought of the worst and, unconsciously, clenched his butthole, while cursing loudly internally.
Peering through the dirty and broken window, to the left side of the bed, he couldn't recognize any building or streets in sight.
All of it was different, the area he was in, the bedroom and, to make matters worse, his own body wasn't his.
He remembered being majorly taller and not so bony and skinny.
His current thigh had the thickness of his previous arm. Of course he was exaggerating, since such thing was a lot difficult to believe in unless someone was The Rock, which he wasn't, but he also had his own reasons behind such behavior. After all, it wasn't everyday that someone would reincarnate or transmigrate, since he didn't know if he died in his previous life or not.
Kain: UGH!!!!
He couldn't even begin to calm himself down, when a completely different, and far more painful, headache hit him, causing him to drop to his knees, on the hard wooden floor, of the bedroom, while clutching his head tightly with his hands.
Seconds ticked by as the sensation of pain slowly dispersed away, allowing him to breath more calmly and analyze the bundle of new information in his mind.
Kain: ".... a different world?"
At that moment, he noticed something shining from the corner of his eye, turning around he found a large mirror leaning on the wall, at the feet of the bed.
Standing in front of the mirror, the reflection of his body allowed him to have a good look at his "new" body.
Like he had guessed, he was a skinny and malnourished young man around 1.65 meters tall, short and spiky light-brown hair, and blue eyes.
In the bundle of information injected into his brain, he found out that he was back to being 18 years old once more.
Which begged the question now - How did this guy managed to live until now?

There was also a small, but important, question in the back of his head - What happened to his previous life?
Although it was relevant, because of it's importance, he didn't spare a single more thought to it or even cared since the beginning.
What was done is done.
And it wasn't like there was anything of worth back in his previous life that he would have regret or be sorry about. He hated his family to the bone, from his beating and cunt of brother to his manipulative mother.
Going through his 'new' memories, he was 18 years old, son of the guy that just came into his bedroom, he even had a sister one year younger than him, and his mom... was dead.
Kain: "What kind of dog shit have they been feeding this guy, for him to be so skinny? And why do I feel sore all over the place? It almost looks like he was beaten up... no..."
A sudden realization hit him, finally looking attentively at his body for the first time, he found numerous bruises, burn marks, cuts, cigar burns, and many other signs of physical abuse, and, worst of all, his purple and deformed back.
Kain: ...fuck.
Finally seeing the state of his back, the pain of deformation and wounds hit him, causing him to try and breath to relieve the pain away, and to calm his rage down.
He wasn't angry about the suffering the previous host had, but the state the body he 'received'.
Kain: "Malnourished...Roughed up.... I won't accept anything like that..."
It was also easy to guess why the previous host died, after inspecting his whole body, it was rather a more difficult question to answer, was how he survived for so long? Lack of Nutrition. Physical Abuse....
[ ….. booting.... ]
Kain couldn't continue thinking about his circumstances, as a cold and emotionless, mechanic voice sounded in his head, causing him to look around in wariness.
Kain: Huh!? What the fuck?
[ …. procedures finished ..... ]
[ WARNING ]

APOCALYPSE
The end of the world is coming to punish Humanity for their sins.
Time Left – 2 Months, 29 Days, 15 Hours, 55 Minutes
0000000000
The sudden appearance of a dark-blue panel, with black border lines and black words, was something that Kain wasn't expecting at all, and, therefore, ready for.
Kain: ...well.... that is new....
Everything that happened, since appearing in a complete different and strange place to this floating panel, that seemed to follow his sight everywhere he looked, it was too much for anyone and he wasn't any exception to this.
Although he fared better than the norm, since he managed to avoid screaming out loud and just sat on the edge of the bed while closing his eyes, in an attempt to sort out his chaotic mind.
Kain: ..... alright.... this works out. I was beginning to grow sick of going to work every day and live that kind of shitty life, it almost felt like dying a little each day.
He didn't felt regret or sad about his previous life, it wasn't the kind of life he wanted to live.
The only unchanging variable still now, was how humans were the top of the food chain. One of the things he hated the most out of them was the fact of how stupid some things were, for example, in his previous life' country of birth, the law would help out the criminals instead of the innocent and victims.
Such stupidity might seem unreal until one feels it directly in the skin, under the form of a bullet piercing your body at an assault, only for the shooter to walk free and an indemnization instead of going to jail or get punished.

He knew that being in another world didn't mean anything would be different in that regard, that was cold and harsh the reality of the world was. But he believed in this system he had, to help him achieve what his goals were.
Kain: Hmmm...
Realizing something, when he thought of his system, he couldn't help but smirk to himself before opening his mouth and uttering the next word lowly and slowly.
Kain: stats
0000000000

Job: Student
Level: 1

Wisdom – 23
0000000000
Kain: …. there is no way that the stat of a regular human being would be 5.... this is some serious bullshit.... even if I have all of the power of the world.... with a body like this.... a strong breeze will send me back to the grave....
Sighing at the end, he couldn't help but shake his head in admiration at how long the previous guy managed to last. That fact only intensified the more he gazed at how low the value of vitality was, and remembered the state the body was in.
It could be considered the most important stat, it represented his resistance to abnormal conditions, such as diseases and poison, and health. That is why he thought that a stronger breeze would incapacitate him, if not kill him directly.
He had to improve his new body, but he had to do it slowly and steady. Starting by eating and exercising regularly, while taking care to not overdo it and end up with more problems than he currently had. He especially had to find a way to correct his skeleton and remove the deformations, something unthinkable could be achieved, easily, in a way, with the help of the system.
Standing, once more, in front of the mirror with the school uniform on, he couldn't help but think that it was just a huge waste of time. There was little to nothing that he would learn of new.
Kain: At least I don't look like a fridge.
The only cheerful aspect of going back to school was the school uniform. Black shoes, black pants, a white shirt and a black vest with a strange crest located in his heart position, that he assumed to be the symbol of the school he would be attending from this day forward.
Stepping out of his bedroom, he came up to a narrow and long hallway that ended up with stairs leading down below.
Kain: "Either a renewed attic or a personal floor.... a question easy to answer."
Shaking his head, a little, from side to side, he grew curious of the reasons behind his mistreatment and abuse.
From beating him up, giving him scraps of dinner or nothing at all, to this 'special' arrangement of his bedroom.... it almost seemed that he should feel lucky to not be living in a metal crate or box....
Coming down the stairs he halted at the emergence of a large hallway, that was easily half the size of his bedroom, where five doors were evenly distributed, with only one in a peculiar location, since it was right next to the another set of stairs leading down.
Kain: "... such a narrow space... either storeroom... or a bathroom, which is most likely since I have the feeling of this being a mansion."
Taking quick, and short, glances everywhere, he immediately took notice of the type and kind of wood composing the floor and doors, that looked to be colorful and new, the various kinds of decorations filling the hallway, from paintings to vases and the big red carpet beneath his feet.
Kain: "Now.... let's see.... if I am right... then.... this one should belong to my sis."
Opening the door, he was momentarily caught off-guard by the sight laying in front of him.
A giant peach wearing a thong was squirming around.
Shaking his head, a little, to disperse the hallucination he was having, he saw that it was just a woman, who should be his sister, seemingly looking for something underneath the bed.
He was so mesmerized by the sight of her big ass bouncing around, that he failed to notice something small emerging and pulsating in the lower-right corner of his vision.
Kain: "Never been a man to refuse a gift from god.... but there are far more important matters to address...."
Licking his lips, he almost reached out to spank the jiggly ass in front of him, but he stopped himself from doing so, while clearing his throat out loud.
tump
The bed jumped a little, with a lowly curse following shortly after. She had just banged her head on the bottom of the bed, in surprise by the sudden sound. Crawling out from beneath the bed, she looked at him while rubbing the back of her head.
???: aiiii... what do you want BB?
The previous concealed body under the thick ass, was fully revealed. She had big and thick thighs leading to her absurd ass, followed by a thin waist, then her chest that seemed to hold two dumplings, and finally ending with her beautiful face, that had a couple of freckles in her cheeks, right below her green-emerald eyes and her light-orange hair tied up in a ponytail. She was wearing a pair of dark-grey shorts, that looked to be boxers of a man because of how short they were, and a short black top, that exposed her belly button.
Kain: "BB?" Just coming to see how my sis is doing. Oh, and to tell you that father is going to be away for a month.
A gentle smile graced his face when he spoke. It wasn't that he fell in love with his 'new' sister or the fact that he was happy having a 'new' family of some sorts, it was simply a technique of his that he had slowly improved along the years in his previous life. A mask to hide his true feelings.
It was far more logical and rational than simply showing one's true feelings at the surface of one's skin, besides it was stupid to fall in love with someone at first sight. Attraction, yes. Love, no.
Without waiting for an answer, Kain made his way out of his sister's bedroom and headed towards the wide staircase leading down below.
Kain: "BB? ….. oh... it means Big Brother." Uhm
Distracted in his own thoughts, he failed to realized that he had already reached the ground floor and bumped into a voluptuous woman, that was frowning while looking at him.
Kain: "Huh.... who is this goddess? Maria? My stepmother?"
Quickly going through some of the bundle of information he acquired from the memories of the previous host, which didn't take long since Maria was in a lot of them, he found out her to be his stepmother, Maria Deusa.
Although there was a lot more information to read and learn about this incredibly voluptuous woman, he couldn't just concentrate or even remove his gaze from the body of this goddess in front of him.
It may seem an exaggeration, or complete absurd, from his part, but one had to be there and watch how her massive boobs jiggled with each small movement of hers. Not even her ass was anything of normal, it was practically the same as his sister's, an abnormal, huge trunk.
Just her body was something that would cause a fire to burst in the guts of any man and have them crave her like a forbidden fruit, until one managed to look up, from all of that, and see her face.
Perfect and clear white skin, without any pimples, black dots, marks or freckles, beauty like any other, and her golden, cascading hair towards her upper-back. It was the final drop.
Furthermore, she was wearing a pair of tight, blue, jeans and a white jacket, that accentuated her curves even more.
It was safe to say that his sister, although being a beauty on her own, couldn't hold a candle to his stepmother, Maria. It was almost like a mortal trying to compete with a divine being, that was how incredibly sexy and beautiful Maria was.
She had two daughters, both older than him, but she was only 35 years old, which begged the question - "How old was she when she gave birth to them?" and, more importantly, "Why was she married to his 'father'?".
Maria: "He is just a pervert. Look at him hungrily looking at my breasts. If he was my son, I would beat the shit out of him."
Kain: "Huh? What is sh--"
Kain noticing her sudden movement, swiftly reacted and grabbed on to her wrist, tightly, while glaring slightly at her. She just tried to slap him. Him!
He didn't care that he was caught being a complete pervert, he wouldn't tolerate shit like that even from a goddess like her.
Kain: What the fuck you think you are doing, bitch?
Shock flashed through Maria' eyes for a short moment under his harsh and very, very, abnormal choice of words. After all, she knew Kain for around a couple of months now, and she could see that this young man was someone very timid and introvert. He was the kind of person one could scream at him, berate him, and beat him up, all day long, and he would still apologize in the end.
Although that was something that she knew, she had never done anything of sorts to him, in fact, she pitied him greatly for a number of reasons.
Her attempt to slap him just now, was a normal reaction of hers towards men that would ogle her body, use any tricks to touch her, and/or look at her. It was something that she had grown used to by now, and as such, developed a way to defend herself.
In sorts, it was an unconscious reaction of her, to the point, that, in the case, she had hit him, she would have apologized immediately.
She had never expected for him to lash out at her, with a cold gaze to boot. Her shock couldn't even last a single minute, as her gorgeous face contorted in anger at his words.
Maria: "Bitch!?!?" Kain! You bett----mmmm
