"Ahh...," A sharp pain shot throughout my body, especially my head.
This pain causes me to wake up from my sleep. But, for some reason my body felt heavy and I am unable to open my eyes.
This is strange, because this never happened to me. And I certainly did not drink last night then, why does it feel like that?
While thinking that the pain in my body decreases but my head still feels heavy for some reason.
Just then;
"Ding," A sound of a bell rang in my ears and a sharp pain shot through my head. It felt like someone was piercing my head with a drill.
"AHHHHHH," I cried in agony but the pain didn't subside, instead it increased more. This made me feel like dying.
"Host found. Binding the system...,"
"...9%"
"...21%"
"....37%"
".....65%"
"....87%"
"....100%"
"Binding Complete." These voices sounded in my ear one by one, while I'm in agony.
After the binding completed, a foreign memory surged in my mind. After digesting everything, I finally know why I felt heavy or why I couldn't open my eyes.
I was dead. Yes, I died and then reincarnated in the world of Transformers Prime as a resurrected Predacon. But before I could regain my clarity the lab I was in exploded. And with that I died a second time.
Before dying, I heard the same bell ringing sound that I just heard. And now I'm reborn in another world that is currently unknown for me.
"Damn it. Dying one time isn't enough, why did I die again? Hah!" I cursed in anger.
Fortunately, I was reborn as a Predacon as I am feeling now, this body is definitely not of a human. But it still angers me.
After calming down, I remembered about the system that binds me. So, I tried to call it out.
"System,"
"Yes, Host. The system is at your service." A mechanical voice sounded in my ear but no blue panel appeared in front of me as I've read about in my past life.
"System, what are your functions?" I asked as only knowing the functions I can be sure of the current situation of me.
"Dear host, system has two functions currently. First, Status Panel and second Service Panel."
"Status Panel records and displays your physical description, cultivation and skills. While Service Panel is the service that system provides you to grow, survive & cultivate."
The system voices sounded again and described its function. Thankfully, it sounds somewhat useful.
"How do I use those functions?" I asked again.
"Just think of it." It replied.
Okay, I got the gist of it. First, the system is the reason why I got transmigrated. Second, it has two functions and by thinking about it it will manifest somehow. Now, time to try it.
'Status Panel'
Just as I thought, a blue, transparent panel appeared in front of my eyes. There are various words written on it.
"PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: -
Name: -???
Age: - 0 Yrs.
Race: - Soul Beast
Species: - Predacon [Transformer]
Bloodline: - Predaking
Cultivation & Skills: -
Rank: - Yellow {100 yrs.}
Attribute: - Metal & Fire
(1) Transformation [Innate] {Locked}
(2) Fire Breathing [Innate] {Un-locked}
(3) Self- recovery [Innate] {Un-locked}"
Looking at the status panel, first came shock and after that the realisation.
"So, this is the world of Soul Land. It seems like living in the future will be full of trouble." That's what I thought.
And it was true, because I'm a soul beast not cybertronian. Here the soul master has reason to kill me. First, because of my specialness as I'm the first of my type in this world. Second, I looked like a Dragon, so most of the Soul Master thought of me as a Dragon type soul beast, which I am not.
"Hah, more trouble to face." I sighed.
Again calming down, I decided to check out other functions.
'Service Panel'
With another thought, a different looking panel appeared beside the Status Panel.
Service Panel: -
1) Map [Locked]
2) Quick Heal [Locked]
3) Shop [Locked]
4) ???
5) ???
….
"What the hell? Why are all services locked? And some of them weren't even shown." I cursed looking at the services which showed locked status.
"Reply to host Services need to be unlocked through points. Not only that, you can unlock anything locked if you have enough points." the system's voice sounded, this making clear the doubts of mine. But another doubt appeared in my mind.
"How do I earn points?"
"Reply to the host, by doing quests or killing you can get corresponding points." It answered.
Right, most of the basic systems have these functions. And it is very simple yet useful.
After knowing everything, I began to focus outward.
Looking around carefully, I found it surrounded by trees and grass. Maybe this is a soul beast forest.
After moving around my body to adapt the size, weight and length, I found that I really didn't need to practice these things as it was engraved in my instinct.
Like, if I need to jump I could do it instinctively. If I needed to swing my tail, I could do it. It is as if every action I perform was natural and easy.
Even so, I carefully checked everything needed to survive. Although combat ability could not be checked without fighting, I checked my strength. My claws can slice a thick tree easily and I can shatter a boulder with my full force. This proves one thing that like other rare soul beasts for example; Titan Ape, Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, I could also fight higher cultivation[Age] Soul Beast.
This somehow eases my tense nerves, but another problem comes next.
"Where should I go? I don't know where this is at all to choose a certain location. According to the memory and information of previous life, this certainly is not Star Dou Forest, nor it is Sunset Forest. Then it can only be the Soul Beast Forest overseen by the Empire." The more I thought, the more I realised how dangerous a situation I'm in.
Even so, I decided to move forward. Because, staying at one place is more dangerous than moving.
Thus, my journey began in the world of Soul Master, Soul Beast & Gods.
