In the world of Moe King, I became the ruler of ice.

On the desolate horizon, a timeline that appears to be as white as snow is drawn.

入眼

It was as if we had arrived in the glacial era, with endless snow and continuous icebergs all around.

A disheveled and lonely figure appeared here, leaving a trail of footprints in the snow.

He dragged his weary body along, like a candle flickering in the wind, and kept walking forward...

"Ha, will I even survive...?"

A few murmurs could be heard in the air.

Call ~

A fierce, cold wind raged, carrying sharp, pointed ice shards that cut bloody gashes across the man's face, but he seemed oblivious to the pain.

He was even somewhat disoriented.

"Am I going to die?"

The person moved their lips, which were frozen purple, in a voice so soft that only they could hear it.

With a loud "boom".

His broken body could no longer support his will.

He collapsed, powerless.

He could no longer feel his legs. He looked around and gave a bitter smile. He felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders as he lay flat on the snow.

He knew his body had reached its limit and he might not live much longer, so he couldn't help but recall all of this.

He felt as if fate had played a cruel joke on him!

Just a few days ago, he was just a corporate slave named Li Qing on Earth. Li Qing had just finished work and was planning to relax by watching some anime.

Unexpectedly, a magic circle appeared beneath his feet, and he inexplicably found himself in this world.

But the world was completely different from what he had imagined. There was no sign of life at all. He even wondered if the world was still in the Ice Age.

Wherever it passed, there was only extreme cold and a deathly white-gray silence.

Why?

At first, he thought he had traveled through time and that his destiny was about to reach its peak. Isn't that how it's written in novels?

But he never expected that although he had transmigrated, it felt like he had been randomly thrown into this glacial world.

Is this place freezing cold?

Fate really does play tricks on him. After holding on for so many days, he's really about to die!

With that thought in mind, he mustered his last bit of strength and let out a low growl.

"I'm so unwilling to accept this!"

And it was just as he lay in the snow, closing his eyes in despair, that he finally stopped.

"Ding, the host's strong indomitable will has been detected. The system is charging... preparing to activate."

"Activation complete!"

Just as his consciousness was about to sink into darkness, he seemed to hear a mechanical electronic sound reach his ears.

He didn't pay attention to the sounds that appeared; perhaps he thought they were just auditory hallucinations he experienced before he died.

Just as he lay on the snow, freezing and unable to bear it any longer, the cold began to disappear, and he felt a slight warmth instead.

"Ugh, I'm so hot."

My body, which had been freezing, suddenly felt warm again.

But he still couldn't open his eyes, and his consciousness became increasingly blurred.

The fierce, cold wind continued to lash his face like knives, but he felt no pain whatsoever.

"Matching appropriate characteristics to the host..."

"Matching... Success!"

The sound appeared again.

"Ugh, this is so annoying! I'm about to die, can't you just let me have some peace and quiet? And don't let me find out who you are?"

He was really annoyed, and facing the sky, he really wanted to vent his frustration.

"Confirmation complete, [Raider] has been successfully matched."

"Raiders" loading complete...

The sound continued.

now

He felt like a clown, first abandoned in this world, and then to die in such a ridiculous way.

Even now that he's about to die, you don't want him to rest in peace, do you?

"Ha, if I have the chance to live, I... I will definitely live the life I want..."

The words had just fallen

"Searching for corresponding skills for the host... Success!"

"Successfully acquired the [Power of Control]!"

The electromechanical sounds didn't seem to have stopped yet.

"Ding! Sensing interference from the host's will to control! Automatically combining [System] + [Power of Control] to upgrade into [Dominator]."

"[Dominator] Transformation complete..."

"The host has acquired the unique skill [Dominator]."

Before he could finish speaking, the life force of this body began to slowly disappear.

...

"Warning: The current host's health is below the danger level. Health is 10%...5%...1%. [Dominator] has begun automatically scanning the surrounding environment to detect the cause."

"Warning: An error has been detected in the host teleportation anchor point. Initiating a solution search."

"Search successful! Emergency activation of the reincarnation program..."

"Startup...startup successful."

His last shred of consciousness finally faded into sleep, and his body was buried by the heavy snow.

......

In a dimly lit cave

Li Qing slowly opened her eyes, and her vision gradually returned.

He saw

There was a patch of black rock overhead, with several blue-glowing crystals embedded in the crevices.

The blurry vision gradually cleared.

"What is that?"

My vision was finally fully restored, and even my brain started working again.

Was he somewhat surprised?

"Sigh... wait, wasn't I supposed to freeze to death? Then how am I still able to talk?"

Li Qing finally realized something was wrong, quickly got up from the ground, and stared wide-eyed at his surroundings.

Something's not right?

But why does he feel so light, as if he's about to float away?

Shift your gaze downwards.

"Holy crap, I'm actually floating? What's going on? Have I become a ghost?"

Looking at his feet, which were floating in mid-air, Li Qing fell into deep thought.

at this time

A somewhat familiar mechanical female voice sounded in my mind.

"Report: The emergency activation of the reincarnation program has been successful..."

"Initiating host vital sign check, in progress..."

"Current health is 98%, indicating a healthy health level."

"Report: All of the host's special abilities are functioning normally."

"Inspection complete!"

The series of sounds left Li Qing somewhat bewildered, before he realized that he hadn't been hallucinating.

I tried speaking with a bit of surprise.

"This can't be my system, can it? So I wasn't abandoned after all."

As soon as Li Qing finished speaking, the mechanical female voice rang in his mind again.

"Report that the [System] in the host's mind has been transformed and upgraded along with the [Power of Control] into the host's unique skill, [Dominator]."

"What do you mean the previous system is gone? What about the [Dominator]? Explain yourself."

Li Qing was a little dumbfounded. The system was his golden father, and he couldn't just lose it.

"Please note that the host can be understood as another form of existence of the system, and there is no concept of disappearance as the host may think."

"【Dominator】is a unique skill of the host, currently possessing two main functions: 【Analyzing Materials】 and 【Synthesizing and Creating】..."

"stop!"

Li Qing said that he didn't understand your explanation either, but he would put these things aside for now.

"System... cough... no, I mean, [Overlord], could you analyze my current situation?"

He really wanted to know what was going on with him, especially since he felt like his body had become incredibly small.

Not only could he float in mid-air, but he also noticed that he had a pair of transparent wings on his back.

"Announcement: The host's life has ended due to an error in the previous teleportation anchor point."

"Therefore, the Reincarnation Program has been activated urgently. The current situation of the host is that he was reincarnated from the previous world to this world, and a new body has been created for the host."

Li Qing understood, so he wasn't a ghost anymore; it was a false alarm.

He originally thought he was dead, after all, when he opened his eyes and found himself floating in mid-air, no one could stand it.

wrong!

Then Li Qing realized what was happening.

"[Overlord] Are you implying that the world I was transported to before was entirely due to a malfunction in the teleportation anchor point, which led to my death? Shouldn't you provide an explanation?"

"We are unable to provide further details due to unknown reasons."

Li Qing was a little furious. So all the suffering he had endured those days was for nothing? This was the only explanation he was given.

He silently made a mental note of it.

"【The Overlord】Then can I know why I became like this?"

"You can check your own status for specific information."

Following the instructions of the [Dominator], Li Qing retrieved his status information.

The first column of information shows the race: Ice Elf (no physical form).

The following section details his characteristics and skills, which can be viewed by clicking on them. There's even something called a resource library?

So, is he now an ice sprite? Or the kind without a physical form?

Simply put, he died in his previous world and was reborn as a tiny ice sprite?
