The warm sun beamed down on Ethan's face, bringing a smile to his lips as he made his way toward the grand estate of the Williams family. Today was a special day for him as not only had he finally been released from prison, having served his time for a crime he didn't commit, but it also happened to be the anniversary of his marriage to Lucia Williams, the woman he loved with all his heart.Ethan thought it fated that it would happen like this which was why despite not having anything, he still got something for Lucia to celebrate the occasion.It had been 3 years since he last saw her with Lucia not bothering to come see him even once since he was forced to take the fall for her father who had been involved in a fraud case that would have seen him spend life behind bars.All because of his love for his wife and unwillingness to see her dad suffer, Ethan had taken the fall and would have spent life behind bars if not that he was let out early on good behavior.

Ethan woke up to find himself in a forest, surprised at how he managed to survive getting shot at point-blank range.Before he could figure anything out, a blue screen appeared before him.[Welcome back, Host, your audience awaits, would you like to begin your first stream now?]Ethan blinked in confusion as he stared at the system interface.He'd thought it was a dream but to think that he had awakened a system like those protagonists in fantasy novels!It was too surreal that he laughed out loud like a maniac, excited that life hadn't forsaken him and had instead given him a chance to take back what was stolen from him.Taking a deep breath, he summoned up his character sheet.[Name: Ethan Jones // Level= 1 (0/100) // Skill: Nil][Inventory: Unavailable // Shop: Unavailable (Unlocked at Level 10)][Mission: Open a channel and announce yourself to the world][Remaining time left to mission: 5:00][Reward: 1000 coins, 50 EXP, Fame +10, One Random Skill][Failure to complete the task i

Ethan grinned sheepishly as he stared at his account balance.In all his years as a gamer, he'd never made so much money in a single day yet here he was making it without breaking a sweat.It felt too good to be true but he had confirmed it was real so he remarked.“Can I transfer my money to another bank?”[Of course!... Would host like a list of banks which could serve as storehouses for his finances?]“Keep it in my treasury.”[Unfortunately, the Host hasn't unlocked this feature yet.
