Zach opened his eyes to a new world. But he didn't expect the sudden pain in his lower back. And butt.

'The heck happened?!'

The last he can recall is dying at the age of 81. So why is he alive now? And why is he hurting in his back? Is it his arthritis? Rheuma? Signs of being old?

He massaged his back with his left hand and massaged his temples with the other. That was when he saw his hands, formerly wrinkled by old age, was smooth and soft.

'What the?'

He struggled to get up. Zach realized that he was lying on a black and blue bed, very different from his originally white one. This was definitely not his room.

[Host, I am System 4547701. You are now obliged to finish missions within my program SYSTEM: C.H.A.O.S.]

"What? Who is that? Where?" Zach turned his head to look left and right but found nothing and no one unusual.

[I am inside your mind host. Please do refrain from conversing with me out loud. Allow me to explain in my realm.]

Suddenly, Zach was in a place that resembled what outer space would look like. Stars, even galaxies were visible to him. 'Where am I?'

[Host, you are in my realm.] a ball of light appeared in front of him, he wondered if it was this ball talking.

[This ball of light is the only physical form I can provide for now. Shall I explain why you are here?]

'Please!'

[Your soul is the most suitable for me to form a contract with. As I have said, my program is SYSTEM: C.H.A.O.S. or Creat Havoc for All Original Souls. Your mission is to travel through worlds, and create havoc and destruction for everyone in it.]

Zach turned confused, 'most suitable'? 'Contract'? 'Havoc and destruction'? Why would anyone want to cause destruction?!

[Do not worry, it is not needed to be a literal destruction. Interpret it as any way you want it to be, either by gathering the whole world to be your fans, create something that will make the world fight for you, or engage yourself as the center of a world war. Any would be seemed fit.]

If that's the case then, maybe it's fine?

'What did you mean by most suitable? And why would I do such things?'

[Your soul is one of the souls that never found completeness, though they thought they lived without regrets. Systems like me exist with a sole purpose to let souls reach a stage of complete happiness and accomplish missions under the program SYSTEM: TRANSMIGRATION TO WORLDS. However, your soul is one of a few that were in special cases, hence the program SYSTEM: C.H.A.O.S.]

'Excuse me, but I lived happily. Why am I here?'

[Host, you did not live long enough to find what you are missing, you concluded that you are complete. Through my program, you will find hints of what it is while doing your best to cause havoc. The worlds you're going to be in are in the brink of death beyond saving and if no one acts, it will all be in chaos. You're mission is to act and save those worlds, as per request of the gods in each. If you successfully "destroy" a certain number of worlds, you are to be given a reward.]

Zach live his life to the fullest, caring for his wife, his daughter, his grandchildren, establishing a solid foundation for them to lean on,  he believed there wasn't anything he hadn't done to not regret. He doubted this system's words but he was also born a hunter. Always hunting for rewards, always curious of what they would be. Always satisfied in knowing that he received something he worked hard to achieve. Always seeking the thrill of it. And hearing that he could live again, he considered this to be a win-win situation.
