[ Echoes of the Past ]
Halfway through, the System buzzed again: “Final Challenge: Reach the Exit Without Reacting to Scares.”“What?” Isa said, reading the notification.Azlan smirked. “Good luck with that.”They continued through the maze, both trying to keep a straight face as increasingly absurd scares jumped out at them. At one point, a giant animatronic spider descended from the ceiling, and Isa nearly screamed.“Calm down,” Azlan whispered.“I’m calm!” Isa hissed, though his clenched fists said otherwise.
[ A Day in Disguise ]
Isa nodded, using his System to increase Malik’s speed by +1. The effect was immediate—Malik zipped past two defenders and sent a perfect cross into the box.Azlan was already there, leaping higher than anyone else to head the ball into the net.The small crowd watching the game erupted in cheers.“Nice one!” Isa shouted, clapping Azlan on the back.Azlan just nodded, his focus unshaken.---With the score tied, tensions were high. The older students, now visibly frustrated, started playing even ro
[ Strength in Brotherhood ]
Before Joseph could protest, Isa’s System chimed softly in his mind.“New Mission Assigned: Help Joseph Successfully Ask Out Emily.”Isa blinked, staring off into space. Wait… what?The System added another note: “Mission Reward: +2 Charisma. Failure Penalty: -1 Confidence for both participants.”“Great,” Isa muttered under his breath.“What’s great?” Joseph asked, his face still buried in his arms.Isa forced a grin. “Nothing. But, uh, let’s just sa
The Calm Before the Storm
Isa’s smile faded. "What’s your problem? I’m just trying to get by, same as you."Azlan’s voice rose. "Yeah, but you’re using it like a cheat code! This isn’t a game, Isa. The more you rely on it, the more it’s gonna cost you!"Isa stepped closer, his own temper flaring. "And you think overworking yourself like a robot is any better? At least I’m not pretending to be perfect."Their argument drew the attention of Stacy, who watched them from the bleachers. She narrowed her eyes.

They weren’t standard patrol officers—these guys were tactical, armed with more than just pistols.Shadow’s System pinged again:“New Ability Unlocked: Shadow Veil. Temporarily conceal yourself within ambient shadows.”A slow grin spread across his face. “Now we’re talking.”Closing his eyes, he focused on the darkness around him. It responded, almost as if alive, wrap
Trial by Fire
The slums were a stark contrast to the towering skyscrapers downtown. Broken streetlights cast uneven shadows, and the air smelled of decay and desperation. Shadow kept to the alleys, his eyes scanning every movement while Ghost stayed alert at his side.As they approached the mission location, muffled voices reached his ears. He edged closer, peering around a corner to find three men cornering a young woman against a crumbling wall.“Empty your bag,” one of the men snarled, brandishing a knife. “Now.”The woman’s hands trembled as she clutched her bag tightly, her voice barely audible. “P-please, I don’t have much…”Shadow’s jaw tightened.
