Jessa was a girl born on the planet Trinium where Willpower shaped how people worked. Willpower was unique energy that was named based on the mental strain it caused the person using it. It was an energy that was stored in the mind, and as such manifested its powers by giving everyone unique abilities. Some could create fire from their hands. Some could move the soil. Some could control metal. Some could transform into something else. Jessa was born with a rather high affinity with Willpower, and as such, from a young age, she was sure to become one of the most successful Power users in the entirety of Trinium. However, fate wasn't so kind to this girl who was meant for great things. Jealousy caused people to attack her family in order to kill her. Many other families pooled their money to hire the entire Assassins guild to kill her family, and more importantly kill her before she manifested her powers. That night, Jessa watched in horror as her mother and father were killed right in front of her. She was only 9 at the time. When she saw the assassins kill her family, she had only one wish. That was for the assassins in front of her to die. And as such, she manifested her power that night. The power of death. With a single thought, she was able to kill anyone. Only, she never realized that her powers weren't granted to her by Willpower, but rather something she was born with thanks to someone messing with her soul in order to practice making a system. When she realized that she had this power and that it didn't even cause her mental strain like others, she started using it on everyone that she deemed was her enemy. Soon, this power twisted her into someone with a black heart and an evil mind. Not long after she had reached her 20s, the world came to know about her and followed her till the end of the world. In frustration, Jessa made one last wish that would remove all her problems. She wished for everyone in the world to die. And they did. Humans all over the planet began to die. Finally, Jessa was able to live freely, but she didn't like this life. She wanted to kill. However, now that there was no one to kill, she could just wait for herself to die. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂 However, just as she was about to go through, she was teleported to this white room with many other humans. Her eyes went wide in glee. Finally, she would get to kill more people. She was about to do so when two people fighting caught her attention, then another white figure appeared and started telling them why he had brought them all here. 'A chance to redo it all over?' Jessa thought in surprise. Then a smile appeared on her face. 'Even more people to kill.' 'Do I have to wait or can I use my powers?' she wondered and decided to test it on the man that stood in front of her. "Die!" she said in a soft voice. Jessa's power of death worked in a strange way. It didn't put a strain on the user's mind, but rather on their soul. What she was able to do was use her soul as leverage to force someone else's soul to separate from their body. Without a body, a soul couldn't last in this realm and would move to the realm of souls to return to the cycle. What Jessa also didn't know was that if she ever met someone with a particularly strong soul, she would be straining her own soul way too far. When she came across someone with no soul at all, she would put all the strain in the world on her own soul. As such, when she told Ning to die, she felt her own powers snap, and on a rebound, her soul was torn to shred with no chance of reincarnation at all. She died without understanding how. * * * * * Genesis looked at Jessa with confusion in his heart. He couldn't tell how she died at all. She shouldn't have access to any unique power at the moment at all. "Whatever, leave her. She's dead," he said and in the next moment, her body disappeared. Ning looked in surprise when her body was gone from his hands. 'How did she die?' he wondered. He hadn't been looking at her as his attention was on the system owner, but still, he didn't think anyone attacked her. Once she disappeared, he focused his attention back on Genesis and the iridescent ball that hung in front of him. "Alright, let's continue," Genesis said. "I'm sure you all must be curious about the system that is in front of you all, but let's keep the information about it hidden for a little longer." "For now, the task is simple. There are many monsters in the place you are going to go to." "Defeat them, and you may get a crown. If you get the crown and are able to successfully defend it for 24 hours, you will advance to the next round," Genesis said. "Defend it?" someone asked. "Yes," Genesis said. "Others can snatch it from you easily. If you cannot protect it, it will go to the other person." "Then, that person will have to protect it for the next 24 hours. There are exactly 50 crowns in this competition, so please hurry towards finding one when the competition starts, okay?" Genesis said. "Let's begin the—" "Wait!" someone shouted. Genesis stopped. "What is it?" he asked. "What about those that can't get the crown?" someone asked. "If you can't get the crown then you lose," Genesis said. "And what happens to the losers?" the person asked. "What happens? Haha, you die of course. SO I suggest you find a crown soon," Genesis said with a laugh, but no one found it funny at all. "If no one has any other question, let us begin the competition," Genesis shouted. Suddenly, white light surrounded each of the hundreds of individuals, and suddenly, they all vanished.
