[ Congratulations, Host! The Strongest Family System has been bound! ]
A cold yet neutral voice echoed in Arthur's mind.
"Hmmm! A system? Now that's something to be excited about!" A slight smile crept onto the corners of Arthur's mouth, and his eyes sparkled with a hint of anticipation.
After all,in his previous life had been a monotonous cycle of work with little to fill the void in his heart.
But there was one thing that brought him joy: reading online novels.
They were his escape, filling the emptiness and adding a dash of entertainment to his otherwise dull existence.
So when he heard the system notification echoing in his mind, he wasn't shocked; instead, he felt a rush of excitement.
This meant he had a chance to start anew in this unfamiliar body.
"System, are you there?" Arthur asked eagerly but cautiously within his thoughts.
[Yes, Host. The Strongest Family System is at your service.] The voice was cold and neutral.
"Yes!" Arthur clenched his fist as excitement danced in his eyes.
But then it hit him, something felt off about the name of this system. "System, what do you mean by 'Strongest Family System'?" he hurriedly questioned.
[Yes, you heard correctly. I am indeed the Strongest Family System.] The voice responded again with that same neutrality.
Arthur's lips twitched as disbelief washed over him. "I think there's been a mistake! You must mean something cooler like 'Strongest Black Technology System' or something! Please check again!"
His eyes gleamed with hope as he awaited confirmation that would validate his wishful thinking, but disappointment quickly followed.
[No Host, the system is not mistaken about its name; it is indeed called The Strongest Family.]
Arthur slumped back in shock, speechless. "I think you're bound to the wrong person," he muttered weakly.
[Host, I suggest you delve into the foreign memories that have recently been implanted in your mind.]
The system remained silent for a moment before continuing.
"Huh?! What do you mean?" Arthur was taken aback by this revelation and felt utterly confused.
With curiosity, he closed his eyes and began exploring those foreign memories swirling within him.
About ten minutes later, he opened them slowly; his lips quivered and eyes trembled with realization.
"Panterra... parallel world... I'm in a new world... I traveled through to another world?!" He struggled to comprehend everything unfolding around him.
Initially believing he'd simply transitioned into another body on Earth after death, Arthur now understood that upon dying, his soul had traveled to an entirely different realm, a world vastly unlike Earth itself!
Firstly, Panterra is ten times larger than Earth that means Panterra had a surface area of of approximately 510 billion square kilometers and the population is ten times larger as well meaning there are about 80 to 100 billion people living in Panterra alone.
"Hissss!" Arthur took in a long deep breath as he was deeply shock by the sheer size of Panterra and it's population his eyes were filled with deep shock.
This new world, called Panterra is an expansive land far beyond anything he'd known before.
While both worlds shared similar technological levels (with no advanced black technologies but Panterra technolis two to five years ahead of Earth), they differed significantly otherwise:
Panterra boasted twelve continents compared to Earth's seven! Each continent was larger than those on Earth:
- Aurelia
- Zephyria
- Verdania
- Noctis
-Solara
-Aquarion
-Eryndor
-Frostara
-Ignis
-Lunara
-Crystalia
-Umbra
These are the 12 continents on Panterra each continent having it's own different countries, culture, languages and may more,each continent had its own very powerful nations apart from these powerful nations or countries there are also world governments.
Such as the Panterra Council, a governing body composed from the representatives from each continent responsible for maintaining world peace and coordinating global initiatives.
Another thing that makes Panterra different from Earth is that apart from it's sheer size and population, the culture of Panterra is also vastly different to Earth infact thy are not on the same scale at all.
And also the history, the history of Panterra is also very different from Earth.
According to the history of Panterra it was formed by the collision of supercontinents creating a planet of diverse ecosystem and vast resources.
Panterra is divided into 5 Eras : The Ancient Era ( Pre- 10,000 BCE ), Classical Era ( 10,000 BCE-500 CE ), Medieval Era ( 500-1500 CE ), Industrial Revolution Era ( 1500-2000 CE ) and finally the Modern Ear ( 2000 CE- Present).
Each era brought the development and significant changes to Panterra shaping it to it's current situation.
It's culture is also very diverse, Panterra also had its own festivals and the like like Earth on Earth there is Christmas, Easter, Chinese New Year etc.
Panterra also had its festivals and celebrations, art and entertainment, music, diverse ethnic groups thousands of them, food and many more making it very unique.
And currently the continent Arthur was in is the Aurelia Continent.
The Aurelia Continent is the third largest continent on Panterra. And he is thr the most powerful country in the Aurelia Continent: The Aurelian Federation in the Capital Neo-Luminara.
An international cosmopolitan city where the continent technological and economic situation is the strongest were all elites, talents from all walks of life, huge corporate companies and political of the continent is centered.
Arthur took in a deep breath as he was quite shock by the information in his mind, he didn't expect there would be such a world.
And according to the information he is currently possessing the body of person woth same first name named Arthur but a different surname or family name.
The body he is currently possessing is called Arthur Osborn, and the reason this Arthur died was due to over drinking himself in alcohol which allow him to successfully possessed this body.
Looking through the memories of this body Arthur learned this guy drunk himself to death because of his parents also died but that's not all another factor that contributed to his death is the pressure from work.
Arthur was speechless when he realized this, it seems both of them died due to the same thing: work.
But Arthur died due to overworking and his body couldn't take it anymore but this Arthur died not because his manager pressured him but because his company is on the brink of bankruptcy.
