Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Corey walked through the hallway and then stopped at the stairs. He could see incomplete corpses, blood and torn pieces of flesh and bones on the stairs.

The more he observed the stairs, the more it looked more like the stairs of death in his eyes.

Corey gulped, then remembered how Smiley rose up from a bunch of corpses and cold sweat dripped down his back.

He took several steps back and then looked at the hallway with the closed doors on both sides, he remembered the extremely terrible monsters inside the rooms and gulped once again.

He alternated his sight between the stairs and the corridor, eventually choosing the corridor.

He could not take the risk and hope that another smiley would not appear from the corpses when he had zero ways of killing a smiley.

Although the hallway had terrible monsters, they were could not get out of the rooms which made the hallway much, much safer than the stairs.

Corey sat beside one of the doors with his back facing the wall. He hugged his knees and put his head in between his legs.

"Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. I'm so fucking going to die!

I hate this.

I hate this so very fucking much.

I just knew that wish screen was bad.

I knew that the world was going to be fucking chaotic!

But what the fuck is this?!

Did a bastard wish for this?

Somebody can't even kill something like Smiley!

Also I take back my wish!

Give me another chance!

Just fucking take back my wish!

I wish for a superpower that can kill Smileys.

No wait I wish to be a god

I wish to be the strongest human on the planet

Just give me a superpower that can kill Smileys or at least defend myself!

I didn't fucking know that everybody was granted a wish

Or else I would never have wished for fucking wisdom!

Hey Universal System. Did you hear me?!

Answer me you mother fucker!!"

Corey raised his head and shouted with indignation, forgetting that his shout could arouse the attention of another Smiley or a different monster.

"You know what. Fuck you Universal System!"

Raising up his two middle fingers to the air, he cursed and then slumped backwards with a depressed look.

"How the fuck do I get out of here?"

Corey muttered depressingly, but just as he did, a crystal object fell out from his pocket.

"Oh. I forgot about this thing."

Corey muttered then picked up the crystal object. He observed and turned it around curiously.

"What the hell is this?"

The moment Corey asked, a translucent screen appeared on top of his right hand. Corey with a stunned look brought his hand closer to his face to read the contents of the screen.

[SOUL STONE OF A TIER 0 REVENANT IDENTIFIED]

[DO YOU WANT TO ABSORB?]

Corey blinked a few times and he looked at the screen with a confused expression.

"Smiley's soul stone? What the hell is a soul stone?"

He asked but got no answer or response from the Universal System.

"What kind of shitty Universal System is this? At least explain what a soul stone is."

Corey cursed at the Universal System but got zero response from it.

Corey knowing that he could do nothing to do the system sighed and then looked at the screen, pondering whether he should accept.

He was not sure what a soul stone was and if it would have any negative effects.

He tried to think of what kind of effects a soul stone might have but his mind came up with nothing.

"Arghh!! This is so frustrating." Corey held his head in frustration, then he gritted his teeth and made his choice.

" Fuck yes. I want to absorb the soul stone."

Although it was risky agreeing to absorbing something he doesn't understand. He decided to do it when he remembered he was currently stuck in this building and he needed to find something, anything that will increase his chances of survival.

As soon as Corey said yes, the eye at the back of his hand, 'The Brand Of The Universal System', let out an orange glow and it was at that moment Corey remembered it was red previously.

Despite the change in the color of the eye, Corey's attention was brought to the soul stone in his right hand.

The orange glow from the eye covered his entire hand and the soul stone, then the soul stone turned to ash. The moment it turned to ash, Corey felt something moving into his body from his right hand and this process continued for a few seconds and then stopped, the eye also stopped glowing.

As Corey kept on looking at the orange eye, he felt stronger and more powerful. It was not a massive increase in strength that would turn him into Superman. Although it was just a slight increase in strength, Corey knew that he was stronger and also faster than before.

"How am I stronger?"

Corey muttered and then he remembered that he had two more crystals in his pocket, so he brought them out.

As he looked at the crystals in his right hand, he noticed that they were both different from the previous crystal.

One was red in color while the other was colorless but Corey could see something like letters in it.

Just as he was about to observe the letters, a screen popped up from the eye on his right hand and Corey leaving the matter of the letters at the back of his mind looked at the screen and read it's contents.

[SKILL CRYSTAL IDENTIFIED]

[DO YOU WANT TO ABSORB?]

[RED GRADE WEAPON IDENTIFIED]

[DO YOU WANT TO OBTAIN OWNERSHIP?]

Corey looked at the screen for a few seconds and then nodded his head a few times.

"This is much better. At least I have an idea what a skill crystal and red grade weapon could be, unlike that souls stone."

He didn't hesitate this time around and gave his response.

"Yes. I want the skill crystal and the weapon."

The moment Corey spoke, an orange light was released from Corey's right hand and the same thing that happened to the soul stone, happened to the two crystals.

The skill crystal turned to ash and Corey felt something flow into his body and then his brain. He was expecting to know about the skill he got from the skill crystal but he got nothing.

No information appeared in his brain, no increase in strength, he didn't feel anything different in his body.

"Was I wrong?" Corey frowned when he realized that no change happened to his body nor did he get any new information about the skill.

Although, no change happened to his body nor did he get any new information, he somehow felt…different.

He could not wrap his finger around the feeling, just that he felt different.

"I guess I'll find out what the skill crystal did to me eventually."

Corey muttered, then looked at the object which was in his hand, temporarily forgetting about the skill crystal.

In his hand was a red beautiful dagger with carvings on the handle. Corey was mesmerized by the beauty of the dagger and kept on looking at it for a few seconds before he picked it up.

"So beautiful."

Corey muttered and grazed the blade with his finger. He stopped grazing the dagger a few seconds later and swung it a few times in the air.

"I've definitely fallen in love. Don't worry baby, I'll definitely keep you and protect you."

Corey rubbed the dagger affectionately as he spoke.

"Although the dagger is beautiful, I don't know if it can truly kill Smileys." Corey said, then placed the dagger on his lap.

"How do I know if it can truly kill Smileys." Corey muttered and thought of trying it on a Smiley if he finds one but when he thought of how stupid that would be, the thought vanished from his head immediately.

Corey kept on racking his brain on how to know if the dagger could truly kill a Smiley since it came from the system and Smiley's corpse.

A few seconds later, as if he was struck by lightning. He had a shocked expression on his face.

"How come I forgot?"

"Status." Corey said out loud and a translucent screen appeared on top of his right hand.

He moved his right hand closer to his face and he saw his information for the first time.
