(3rd POV)
Looking at the darkness, Ryo panicked. The last thing he remembered was DIO slapping him into oblivion.
Furthermore, now he can't even feel his body! He knows that he has a body but somehow he isn't able to see or act! It was an unknown feeling of helplessness that he hated to his core. The same feeling that he had when he saw his Father die.
A feeling of dread. Feeling like being a slave or puppet to others.
'I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this! I hate this!'
'I promised Father that I will be free. I will not be shackled by anything. Why is it that I'm shackled by everything again and again? Why can't people just let me rest in peace!? Why me? Why?'
'I will kill them all! All those who will be in my way now. No matter what, I will not stop from reaching the top now. My past self has already been too carefree, now I must change and bring the change! I can't just allow myself to stay as a puppet in the grad schemes!'
-
Calming himself down, Ryo examined his current self. Just as he felt, he is not able to see or move, thankfully, he can think.
Just as he was examining his current situation, he saw a translucent purple screen pop into existence in front of him.
[Congratulations! You are selected by The System given to you by your lord and savior DIO! The host will have to discover all of the functions of the system himself as this is just the recordings! For further information, you can use common commands like 'Show Status' or 'Show Skills']

You are currently provided with 5 free inventory spaces which can store only one single item each of any size.

Swallowing up all the information, Ryo calmed down a little and thought and tested mentally, 'System, Show Stats!'

[Please press (?) to learn more about the given stat.]
[Congratulation for taking your first step toward getting to know the system! You have completed the required steps! You gained a new title: [Baby Steps to Greatness!]! Would you like to equip this title? You can also equip it later if you want. (Y/N)]
With a twitch of his lips, Ryo instantly pressed the 'N' present on the system window. 'What the fucking shit! Baby Steps to Greatness? Bitch please I don't need that shit title until or unless it gives me some type of some advantage.'
Taking a deep breath, Ryo looked at the glowing window and saw the Mind stat, making him fear what this 'Curse' was about. He then started to click (?) to learn more about them.
[Titles: These are the various name or titles which either you are known for or have gained through the system after completing certain requirements. This range from Casual Names to Grand Titles or Crindgey Shit that you might be known for.]
[Cores: Each being is born with natural affinity from their birth. The affinity shows the element which you have the greatest talent with. More information will be given when the Host Awakens/Unlocks the Core.]
[Perks: Perks are the special abilities that will affect the host's body physically and mentally and some of them might even give you a head start. Please select choose the [Get 3 Perks] option to get your first 3 Perks!]
[Body: Body represents the collections of the basic maximum power you can go into. This includes all your physical stats like Strength, Speed, Endurance, Stamina, Vitality, and others!]
[Mind: Mind is a special attribute that shows how powerful your mind is. This stat will allow you to use Psionics Abilities and also represents your mental capabilities! But due to staying in the presence of the Perfect Higher Dimensional Being, your mind is affected by Chaos & Order. Your mind will be very chaotic and you will feel every emotion and sense enhanced. This means if you feel a little sad, you will directly go into depression. While, if the host feels fluffy inside, the host will start to laugh loudly, until or unless host is able to suppress it inside. ]
[Note this curse will be in effect as soon as the Host is able to move his body.]
[Astral Body: Due to the blessing of DIO-sama, the Host has already formed the Astral Body. Further Information will be given when the Host reaches the S-Rank in all the Stats.]
[The Ranks are as follows in ascending order: E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS, ???. This can be also used for showing the Skills and Weapons capabilities. The '-' sign represents that the rank is at the lowest place while the '+' sign represents that the rank is at the peak.]
[Unique Points: Unique Points or also known as UP is the currency that can be used to purchase anything you want from ???. You can earn them by doing something unique that can range from changing plots, killing the main protagonist, changing the main protagonists, altering history, altering or destroying timelines, etc. You are completely free to do whatever you want. You will earn them by the end of the completion of every world. BUT REMEMBER, EVERYTHING IS RUN BY UNIQUE POINTS.]
Looking at the last few words written in red bold letters, I had bad feelings. I don't know whether I should call it a foreshadowing. Furthermore, he was now cursed, making him grimace. The only thing he was bad at was controlling his emotion. Although he was able to suppress all his emotions behind, he was already feeling a bit numb about it. So now he will have to control all his emotions properly or he might start to cry at any point in time.
Thankfully he was given time until he will be able to move, this also proved that he either is in a Womb or is in a coma of some sort and he will soon gain consciousness by himself or through outside stimulation.
Furthermore, with the system money, Unique Points or UP, he might even be able to travel to other animes!
But the current priority for him was to learn which world he is in. If he is in an unknown world, he might not be able to meet the protagonist, especially if the current world he is in is not a supernatural one. If he is in a Chinese Novel or something then he will be dancing in happiness cause all the plot development is the same as each of their own kind.
But there was another problem which was bugging him...
'Having a family... might not be bad... but they will also get into my way to get stronger and live a peaceful life...'
'No... I will be fine even if I have a family... it might take some time accepting them... probably a few years... but I want someone who I can protect... Father... I want to be just like you... I will not leave them '
Shaking his head mentally, Ryo signed and re-read through all the information again to not miss something. Going through all the stuff and digesting all information. Ryo decided to select the 3 perk that was available to him.
As soon as he selected the [[Get 3 Perks]] option, a huge list of thousands of perks was presented to him. Each of them was different and provided him with a variety of advantages. What he further noticed was that most of these overpowered perks might give him great advantages, but they also give him a lot of disadvantages.
Thus, he will have to go through all of them and select the three most suitable perks for himself.
---
After going through the whole list, he selected the 3 most perfect perks, perfect for his taste.
[1. Chunnibyo Effect: The host sees everything in an animated style. Triple the talent to learn supernatural stuff. This perk will decrease the ability to perceive distances for the Host.
2. Brave: Will stay brave and calm in dangerous situations. Increase stats by 15% when in fight or deadly situations. But decrease stats by 15% when not in fight or deadly situations. This perk will take 3 sec to take effect every time.
3. Cockroach: Have a 75% chance of getting no damage in one-shot killing attacks. No Drawback.]
Although choosing the first one felt cringy and based, he felt that this perk might prove very effective if he decided to hop to an anime word. He had seen enough traumatizing memes about what the anime characters in 4D will look like through cosplayers from the past. Either they will look beautiful or they will look scary as shit. But still, Ryo prefered to see them in 2D.
As soon as he selected the confirmation option, Ryo's mind went black for a second but soon returned to normal but he was able to feel the difference. In the corner of his mind, he can perceive the perks that he had selected. Although he was not able to confirm the perks' abilities, he was sure that they were already in effect.
After spending some time thinking about his next course of action, he selected the [Show Skills] option as a list opened up, showing all his skills.
[Skills:
[[All Human Knowledge(A-Rank)]]: You have all the knowledge that Humans had gathered throughout the years till the year 2127.
[[Hand-to-Hand Fighting skills(D-Rank)]]: You have mastered hundreds of Fighting techniques and reached such proficiency that a grandmaster bows before your skills.
[[Weapon Proficiency(D-Rank)]]: You have mastered your skills to use thousands of different weapons and reached such proficiency that almost all gunmen will bow before your skills.
[[Emotion Suppression(C-Rank)]]: Going through a lot of stuff during your childhood and adulthood and feeling negative feelings, you have learned to subconsciously suppress all your emotions and show a fake face in front of others.
[[Determination(D-Rank)]]: Due to your nature and personality, you are a person who does what he determines. This increases your willpower and decreases the feelings of regret that you might have. Due to this you will go on and dedicate yourself to doing the stuff and will not retreat till you complete it.]
[Note: Eidetic Memories and Fast Learning is removed from the skills list because the Host is currently in another body.]
Looking through all the skills that he had, Ryo nodded mentally. During the 10+ years that he spent in the Learning Camp, he dedicated himself to learning all the knowledge the government provided him with. This also included Hand-to-Hand Fighting skills and Weaponry Proficiency Skills. As the strength of mutants increased, human technology also leaped huge bounds.
The Nuclear Bomb was a thing of the past. After the discovery of the X-2027 element, the new bombs were literally able to obligate a whole planet itself. Thus the knowledge related to that element itself was hidden from the normal citizens and even the 3rd Rank Mutants.
Even he only heard about it once during his time during the time he spent in the Learning Camp and that too by accident.
-
After completing his task, Ryo explored the system in boredom in the endless darkness, trying to distract himself from negative thoughts.
'Empty Brain becomes the of the house of Devil.'
A saying he once heard.
If you have no thoughts, negative thoughts come to your mind as you try to overthink stuff that you should not be thinking about.
Thus to stop himself from overthinking and worrying, Ryo started to look and think of various ways to distract himself.

[2235]
What are your thoughts about what anime world the Main character is being reincarnated into? The hint is very obvious.
Man, there are so many assignments given to us in just the first week! I wonder how I will survive in these conditions lol. Thankfully I completed my assignments for my classes today and tomorrow. Thus there is a chance that I might release another chapter within a few days... Until or unless I get a surprise assignment. That will be a BRUH moment lol. Wish me luck!
Sorry for the info dump. I tried to think of a way to transfer this dump to future chapters but I don't think that this will fit for the situation I'm thinking and planning for. Hope you enjoyed the info dump haha.
Thank You~
