    Standing in the wilderness, not even the gusts of frigid autumn wind could dampen Wang Yuan’s good mood. After all, having received the Different Worlds System, he would be able to travel through infinite worlds, if he wasn’t the main character, who was? Just thinking about the wonderful life from now on made him ecstatic.


    “Is this a different world?” Wang Yuan nced around his surroundings and took a deep breath, felt that the air in a different world was just as fresh as the one he was used to, and asked the Different Worlds System: “Can you tell me what kind of world this is? And can I reallymunicate with the natives of this world? You’re not going to tell me that English is themonnguage for the entire universe, are you?”


    [There is no need for the host to consider the problem ofmunication. The System is equipped with True Word. This is anguage with the Exclusivity property that can be understood by any sentient lifeforms, one of the mainnguages of the multiverse] an icy cold voice responded, listening to it would give you the impression of aputer-like artificial intelligence.


    [This world is ssified as a low-magic world with rtively primitive witch doctors and life training crafts as the mainstream. The world consists of mostly white people, equivalent to the European Middle Age of the host’s world]


    [Of course, the host does not need to know this. This knowledge is now meaningless to the host] for some reason, when it said this, the System’s cold voice held a slightly mocking tone.


    “Huh? Why?” Wang Yuan was still focused on observing this new world, so he didn’t notice the approaching danger and curiously asked.


    [Because this world has the misfortune characteristic] the System’s icy cold voice slowly spoke: [In the majority of other worlds, an intangible but very real concept known by the name of ‘luck’ is always present as they operate, the main product of which is something called the Protagonist Aura]


    [And this world has the unique characteristic of being able to suppress that ‘luck’, rendering it useless here. Even with a Protagonist Aura, a tiny chance is still a tiny chance, and coincidences are truly nothing but coincidences, it would not be forcefully turned into an inevitability] the Different Worlds System continued to speak with its aloof, distant voice, but the insuppressible maliciousness and discord within its words were beginning to leak.


    “So Protagonist Auras actually exists? Haha, then this world’s protagonist is quite the hapless guy” Wang Yuanughed, then suddenly felt a bit disorientated while something seemed to be dripping from his nose.


    When Wang Yuan unconsciously wiped his nose, he found that his hand waspletely red and hurriedly looked up. But the nosebleed couldn’t be stopped at all, so he angrily questioned the System: “System, didn’t you say that there were no dangers when travelling to another world?”


    [The System’s transference technology is extremely stable, it would definitely not harm humans in the slightest]


    “Then why is my nose bleeding?” Wang Yuan asked in confusion as he pinched his nose, then noticed that red spots were beginning to appear on the back of his hand while visually bing bigger and spreading all over his skin.


    [In the shallow words of you humans, that is travel sickness] the Different Worlds System scoffed: [People in the host’s world can get all sorts of sickness just by travelling a bit too far away from their town due to a change in environment, let alone travelling to another world]


    [Normally, travel sickness is just a stomach ache or vomiting at worst, but this is a different world. The host’s body has adapted to surviving in the Asia region of Earth, so in this new world, against foreign bacteria, the host’s body doesn’t have the necessary antibodies to fight these diseases. The host’s immune system is practically useless in this world]


    [Not to mention, the various bacteria and viruses that came with the host from the host’s world can easily mutate and change in this new environment. If this was spring, or if the temperature was suitable and there were enough people travelling around, the host would have brought quite a decently-sized gue to this world]


    “Bleh...” Wang Yuan crouched down and began to vomit everything in his stomach. As soon as he was done, Wang Yuan began to cough uncontrobly as his body temperature began to increase at an unnatural rate.


    “I want to go home, bring me home, I need to see a doctor!” Wang Yuan shouted.


    [As you wish!] the Different Worlds System calmly spoke.


    A force began to act on Wang Yuan’s body, shifting his gradually powerless body to one side to see a rock next to him. The word ‘Home’ was carved on one side and ‘Doctor’ on the other side.


    [Does the host have any other requests?] the Different Worlds System’s cold and malicious voice continued to ring in Wang Yuan’s ear.


    “Bastard, I said I wanted to go home!” Wang Yuan painfully shouted.


    [My apologies, because the host does not use True Word and the host’snguage has too many homophones, I could only execute the host’smand ording to my understanding] while it was apologizing, the Different Worlds System’s voice had no hint of remorse: [Just like the following sentence: ‘Wear as much as you can’ can have different meanings in different seasons]


    “Save me, cure my disease!!” Wang Yuan tried clutching at thest straws he could.


    [As you wish] the Different Worlds System said, then Wang Yuan suddenly felt a pinch before it spoke again: [I have examined your disease]


    “Don’t y words games with me1! Why do you want to push me to my death!? I’m just a normal person, there are over 7 billion people on the, why me!” Wang Yuan wasn’t stupid, he now fully understood that the System was purposefully pushing him to his death.


    [The scales of equivalent exchange has yet to be bnced, then I shall exin it to the host] the Different Worlds System briefly checked something before continuing: [The host only assumed himself to be a normal person, while in fact, the host carries something of extreme value on himself]


    [That is the host’s Protagonist Aura. If this System had not appeared, the host would have begun his hero’s journey not too longter]


    [And to rob a Protagonist Aura, the following three steps must be achieved. Firstly, the Protagonist Aura must be in a suppressed stage, which this world perfectly aplished. Secondly, the scales of equivalent exchange must be bnced; the System’s actions of aiding the host’s inter-world travel, fulfilling the host’s wishes and answering the host’s questions are all for the sake of bncing this scale. Naturally, because of the System’s prior knowledge of these rules, the scales are yet to be bnced. Thirdly, the host must die, at the same time the cause of death must not be directly rted to the System]


    [Once these three steps are aplished, the host’s Protagonist Aura will belong to this System]


    “So that’s why you want to kill me...” Wang Yuan muttered in despair and coughed uncontrobly again. Even when he wanted to sit back up, his limbs were numb and powerless so he just fell down again.


    [That is not the case, the System did not kill the host, because that would not allow the System to collect the host’s Protagonist Aura. The host was killed by the environment of this world, and the System has already attempted to help the host through the host’s requests] the Different Worlds System corrected him.


    [ording to System examination, the host has one minute left to live. If the host has anyst words, please go ahead and say it. Naturally, the System will not pass it on, as the scales of equivalent exchange have already been bnced] the Different Worlds System was still using an icy cold voice to speak the mocking words that pierced the soul.


    “...” the Different Worlds System’s icy cold sarcastic remarks caused Wang Yuan to bepletely speechless. Of course, he had a lot he wanted to say, but he would rather continue to live than to leave anyst words; unfortunately, he was already powerless to change anything, he didn’t even have the strength to sit up.


    In hindsight, he didn’t even know how many mistakes he had made since the beginning. Starting with naively cingplete trust in this System with unknown origins, and letting it take him to some unknown world without thinking of any consequences, his death right here and now was nothing but his own fault.


    As his vision slowly became blurred, Wang Yuan seemed to see images shing in front of his eyes, in which he sessfully awakened a supernatural ability; pped the faces of clueless young masters and showed off his strength, bing the urban ruler; then the school Madonna, a pair of twin sisters, a shy librarian, a sexy female teacher, a youngdy of a rich family, all of them came flocking to his side... but then everything slowly faded, and all that was waiting for him was the cold grasp of death.


    [Confirmed deceased] a glowing polygonal crystal came out of Wang Yuan’s body and began to record the System log: [The host has died, his soul shackles confirmed broken, initiating the collection of the Protagonist Aura through equivalent exchange]


    [Protagonist Aura collectionplete, Aura collector YD2335 begin registry. ssification: Urban Supernatural Ability. Quality: Medium. Completion rate: 100%]


    [Discovered the host to have begun to form a remnant soul, initiating world transference to avoid the contamination of the Protagonist Aura]


    After it finished registering the Protagonist Aura, the polygonal crystal immediately broke through the void of space and disappeared from this world, leaving the corpse of a traveller from another world as well as the remnant soul slowly forming from it.
