Jaune Arc and the G.O.D. System

Prologue

The sky over Vale was overcast, a blanket of grey clouds hanging low and heavy, mirroring Jaune Arc's somber mood. He sat on the edge of his bed, the room around him a stark reminder of what he had lost. The walls, once adorned with posters of legendary Huntsmen and Huntresses, seemed to close in on him. His scroll lay discarded on the nightstand, the message of his expulsion from Beacon Academy still fresh in his mind.

"Fake transcripts,"

They said.

"You never should have been admitted."

Jaune's heart felt heavy, weighed down by the truth he had tried to hide. He had come to Beacon with dreams of becoming a hero, but now those dreams seemed shattered, scattered like the papers he had torn in frustration. His family had been supportive, of course. They had hugged him, reassured him that he was still loved, still valued. But their kindness only deepened his sense of failure.

Jaune: Why did I do it? Why did I think I could get away with it?

Regrets swirled in his mind, memories of moments he wished he could take back. He had wanted to be a Huntsman not for fame or fortune, but for the ideal of heroism. He had wanted to protect people, to be a beacon of hope just like the heroes he admired. But now, with his dreams in tatters, he felt lost, adrift in a sea of uncertainty.

Jaune: If only I had another chance, If only I could prove that I'm worthy, that I can be a true hero.

As if in response to his heartfelt plea, a soft, ethereal light began to fill the room. Jaune blinked, lifting his head to see the source of the illumination. Before him floated a translucent screen, its surface shimmering with an otherworldly glow. Words began to appear on the screen, written in a language he couldn't quite recognize but somehow understood.

Welcome, Jaune Arc,

I am the GOD System, a System designed to help you grow stronger and achieve greatness. Through me, you can gain the power to stand among the divine, to be a hero in the truest sense. But to do so, you must earn experience points known as Divinity.

Jaune's eyes widened in awe and disbelief.

Jaune: What... what is this?

Reaching out to touch the screen. It felt warm under his fingertips, pulsing with a gentle energy.

The system will guide you on a path to greatness. You will receive tasks from gods of all pantheons, challenges that will test your resolve, strength, and heroism. Complete these tasks to earn Divinity and unlock your true potential.

Jaune's heart raced with a mix of excitement and trepidation. This was the chance he had wished for, an opportunity to prove himself and become the hero he always wanted to be. But the road ahead would not be easy, and the stakes were higher than ever.

Jaune: I... I accept. I'll do whatever it takes to become worthy, to be a true Huntsman and a hero.

The screen glowed brighter in response, and Jaune felt a surge of energy course through him. His journey was just beginning, a path laid out by the gods themselves. With the GOD System by his side, he would face challenges and trials beyond his imagination. But for the first time in a long while, hope filled his heart. He would become the hero he was meant to be, no matter what it took.
