1.2 | PREPARATION

AKI YANG

     There are five main points that Aki learns from their discussion:

     Number one - He has parents.

     According to the System, the Main System devised the entire plan years ago. Aria and Keeho Yangs, his supposed parents, were two of the first people to enter the universe solely to follow its orders.

     Their goal was to gain as much power and recognition as possible in the short time they had so that they could compete with some of the most influential people in the universe.

     Apparently, they were quite successful in gaining both power and recognition. So, not only is the entire country aware of them now, but also of Aki - their heir, which brings him to his second point:

     Number two - Everybody knows about Aki Yang, but nobody knows how he looks.

     As he's not a biological child born to the Yangs, the Main System spent years designing his body before transferring Aki's soul from another universe into it. Honestly, now that he thinks about it, possessing this body is no different from the System having a vassal. Therefore, his initial freakout over the blonde an hour ago is a bit embarrassing in hindsight.

     Aki Yang has yet to 'debut' to the public, so everybody is aware of his existence but not of his appearance.

     Number three - Many people are involved in the Main System's ploy; above hundreds.

     Most of those involved act as subordinates of the Yangs, while some - more important members of the team - operate behind the scenes with the Main System.

     From what he has gathered, there are four divisions:

     Division 4. People who are exclusively from this universe, strategically hired to increase the credibility of the Yangs. They have no idea what's going on behind the scenes.

     Division 3. The Main System-affiliated personnel, who operate under the Yangs towards the Main System's goals. They have enough knowledge about the universe and the plan, unlike the fourth division.

     Division 2. More important individuals who work directly under the Main System.

     Division 1. The Main System, along with the higher-ups responsible for the necessary developments and interventions.

     When Aki asks, Elias remarks that Aki, Minji, and him are situated somewhere between the third and second visions, while the System is in the second. Aki thinks that the System's rank should be higher, but it keeps calling itself a mere messenger and assures them there are more important entities involved, which makes sense.

     Number four - The Lookism universe is far more complicated than Aki ever imagined.

     After the System finally and properly briefs him on the universe and its characters, Aki's brain starts feeling like mush, especially when he learns about the strength and priorities of some of the main characters. Instead of studying for entrance exams like other regular teens, they are out there not only beating each other up for fun, but also taking on middle-aged gangsters for shit and giggles.

     Aki is left scratching his head, wondering exactly how to protect some like Daniel Park, who could probably flick his pinky and send Aki flying out of the window. That is until the System both assures and dooms him with the last piece of information:

     Number five - Aki has to undergo some intense training.

     Aki doesn't know how to react when he learns that he has to undergo training that spans several months. Faced with an upcoming schedule so packed, the boy decides to give up before it even starts, opting for the death option presented to him earlier.
