Strongest Superhuman System

Gasp!

Mark gasped in shock as he felt a new wave of fresh air entering his lungs, and he looked around him in shock at the new scene that he was surrounded by. Mark was inside an abandoned building that had seen far better days. The roof was broken, so there was some moonlight filtering into the building. The walls on one side had a large hole in it, and the other sides were cracked in many places.

There was debris and broken furniture all around the house, and the sound of crows and ravens was the only thing prevalent in the house.

[Welcome to the Game of Gods. Please read through the instructions very carefully.]

[You are currently within an alternate dimension's Tokyo, Japan. This dimension has never gone through the same terrors that Earth went through, so the inhabitants lack all knowledge about the existence of anima or superhumans. You are present in this dimension along with five other participants. Each participant has been granted a Ticket with the image of a chess piece printed on it.

The chess piece depicts the user's status in this game and can be used to either boost or debuff their powers depending on how they use their piece's capabilities.]

[Each participant in the Game of Gods has been given the title of Servant, and in order for them to become true participants in the game, they will have a master chosen for them at random based on their compatibilities with a randomly selected group. These Masters are the true purpose of this game, and each Servant is tasked with protecting their master until the game is concluded.]

[How to Play]

i. Each participant must possess a Ticket

ii. Each Participant will be granted a Master to protect throughout the duration of the game

iii. If a participant's Master dies, the participant has a twenty-four-hour period to form a new contract with a new master before the game is forfeited.

iv. If a participant dies, their master is allowed to form a contract with a new servant before a twenty-four-hour period elapses. After this period elapses, the master automatically forfeits the game.

v. Forfeiting the game means immediate death.

vi. Each participant is granted buffs and debuffs based on the chess piece present on their Ticket at the time of summoning.

...

[The User possesses the PAWN ticket. Rejoice, user, this is the most versatile ticket out of the six available tickets. You have very good luck!]

[Benefits]

i. The PAWN is the most versatile ticket out of the six available tickets.

ii. The PAWN's master will receive three absolute commands.

iii. All commands issued by the PAWN's master are absolute and MUST be accomplished

iv. The PAWN is capable of advancing into a higher piece if they are present within the territory of another Ticket holder.

v. The PAWN possesses a familiar that can be used to spy on other participants in the game.

vi. The PAWN will gain a 10% boost to all stats when fighting against the QUEEN due to their high incompatibility.

[Debuffs]

i. The PAWN must obey all commands issued by their master

ii. The PAWN is immediately debuffed once they leave the territory of the rival ticket holder, and all the properties copied by the PAWN will be stripped away.

iii. The PAWN will receive no major stat boost at the start of the game.

...

[At the end of the game, whoever is left standing along with their master shall be granted the favor of Ares the god of war, and the master-servant pair will also be granted one wish of their choice that is within reason. Although, the concept of reason is something abstract for the gods, so whatever wish the master-servant pair requests might be granted regardless.]

Mark read through everything that this system gave him quickly, and he couldn't stop his brow from squeezing together in confusion as he saw the part about him being a pawn. Mark did not know how to feel about being called a pawn, neither did he know how to feel about doing everything that his master told him to do.

But the system said that it would choose a master for him at random.

Why wouldn't they give him the chance to choose for himself? If he was going to be obeying someone's commands for the entire duration of this game, then he at least wanted it to be someone that he could tolerate. Mark did not know how he would feel if it was someone like Salazar who was chosen from his world. He would probably just kill that bastard himself in anger.

No, the system wouldn't do that. They said they would choose someone he was highly compatible with. So it's more likely that it would choose someone like Arit, or maybe even Pat. Yeah, I just have to hope that it doesn't choose anyone stupid.

Mark was sitting on some broken rocks and leaning back on a broken slab of rock that had cracked off from the ceiling and embedded itself in the ground. His hands were resting on another broken piece of rock on the side.

Mark scrolled through the many rules and regulations, and he wondered what sort of buffs the other chess pieces received.

Assuming this twisted game was actually following the rules and it hadn't introduced new chess pieces that didn't exist back on Earth, Mark could only assume that the other chess pieces were the king, queen, rook, knight, and bishop. What sort of boosts did these other pieces receive, and what sort of debuffs did they get in exchange? Mark wished he could get those from his system.

In his debuffs, the system said that Mark was not getting any major boosts to his stats. Does that mean that the other pieces received some sort of boost to their stats? That was so fucking unfair. Here I have to listen to everything some random motherfucker says, and the others are enjoying themselves with no forced commands as well as boosts from their chess classes.

Isn't this some sort of glitch in the game!?

This is basically slavery! Give me boosts too!

[No.]

Mark rolled his eyes at the cheeky attitude from his system and just went back to the tabs that were open in front of him. The best thing about his class was the familiar that he gained. Mark hummed as he thought about how he should call on his familiar. Should he just say –

"Familiar."

Whip!

Flap! Flap! Flap!

"Wiik! Wiik! Wiik!"

Mark tilted his head to the side as a strange bat-looking creature suddenly appeared in front of him.
