Waking up to a kiss with a corpse is not how I figured I would start my day, much to my confusion because I don't remember falling asleep.
One moment I am reaching for the water purifier for a glass of water, the next, I am kissing the corpse of a lady with black hair and green eyes dressed in casual jeans and a loose black shirt.
By all accounts, I should be freaking out right now, but I am strangely calm. No, that isn't the correct phrase; I am not feeling anything would be the correct phrase.
I try to get up but find it hard to do thanks to the rebar going through 'mine' and the woman's heart.
...
Am I an undead of some kind? Is that why I am not feeling anything? well, anyway, I need to get off her.
...
The rebar is attached to a wall that carries who knows what. Looks like I am stuck here for now.
[ Alert: Quest Zero failed ]
[Initiating Quest Zero failure effects]
I suddenly found myself next to my 'fiance' instead of on top of her, and my wounds started closing...
HOLY SHIT, I WAS DEAD!? AND WHERE THE HELL AM I? WHO AM I? WHAT THE HECK IS THIS PLACE? A RUIN OF SOME KIND, BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT! THE POINT IS I DIED TWICE IN A ROW! HDBKSASCBKASFB...
{REDACTED due to being retarded and unintelligible}
Okay, I am calm now, but I still have no idea about who I am, where I am, or if 'I' am me.
Wait, didn't I have a hole through my heart? It's healed, neet!
Now about who I am? Do I have an ID? Found it.
So, I am Jason Guard, and my birth date is 25/09/1985; I am in the USA, or at least I think I am; that still leaves the question of which year I am in and if I am in some alternate world.
What's her name? I don't see a purse, and her pockets are empty... well I have no idea of who she is, and that sucks.
So what now? How do I get out of here? I don't see any path that isn't covered in rubble. So I guess I am waiting for rescue.

Wasn't there an announcement saying I failed some quest? How do I access it?
"System?"
that didn't work
"Quest?"
"Woah!"
that was surprising.
So I have something like a game System?
"Stats"
nothing here, so it's not a game system.
"Help?"
nothing
"Inventory"
I tried to click on it, but that didn't work.
Guide!
no response
"Guide"
nothing
"Give me Guide."
A green book materialized in front of me, So I need to use my voice to access anything related to this 'System'; not very convenient, but whatever.
|Some Time spent reading the Guide|
That was useful in understanding this 'power.'
Basically, I can choose to take 'quests' that will influence this world; the more significant the difficulty, the more the influence and the more incredible rewards.
And the rewards are basically 'Shop Points' or 'SP' for short. I can use 'SP' to buy things from the 'shop.' plus, anything I buy will be stored in the 'inventory' until I take it out of it, but I can't return anything to the inventory or store anything in it unless I buy the 'inventory' from the shop.
But there is one exception, Quests that involve my survival are mandatory, meaning I have to complete the quest if I wish to survive; failure will result in me losing something in exchange for my survival which is nice.

Oh, and Quests that I select to complete are marked in positive numbers starting from 1, and survival quests are marked in negative numbers starting from 0.

...huh,
"Looks like I am someone's entertainment," |said the protag with a bitter smile|
"Now what?"|says the protag as he looked around the rubble when his eyes landed on his 'fiance'|
"Mam, I am sorry for desecrating your 'fiance's' body like this, but I have had no say in whatever has happened till now, and I don't think I will have a say in whatever is happening for a long time, so I hope you will forgive me." |says the protag as he makes eye contact with her corpse|
That helped me lift some burden off my heart; now what? I guess I will take a look at that starter pack but first.
|The Protag rips a piece of his shirt into a makeshift blindfold and closes her eyes, and ties the blindfold around them|
"Give me the starter pack."
and nothing happened?
"Inventory"
okay, so I can't take it out then...
"Open Starter Pack"
Now how do I use them?
"Use Powers"
Nothing happened.
"Grant Powers?"
Again no change.
"Acquire Powers"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"|Protagonist's scream as his brain hurt|
|A few seconds later|
"ouch,"|said the protag with a lifeless expression|
So about my 'powers' which I just acquired, Accelerator lets me accelerate things I am in contact with up to 10% the speed of light at the cost of stamina directly proportional to the speed I provide said object, and Observe lets me know the basic detail of things I use my ability on and if it is alive whether said being is my enemy or ally or neutral, for example, if I use observe on her corpse.
I get that information. If I use it on myself.
Well, isn't that a seed for an existential crisis? because according to the initial info I got for the power, the relation status should show as 'self' if I am using that power on myself.
.
.
I will leave that alone. It's not like I can do anything about it. Huhaaaaaaa. I need to get out of the rubble, which I can do by simply accelerating the roof away along with all the debris it holds but first, let's see if I can figure out where I am, based on the quests available to me.
"Quests"
"Invaders, Nukes, Motherships, Portals, Chitari, now where have I heard all this?" I muttered, thinking, trying to piece together everything when the rubble shook as something exploded above it.
Explosions? modern times based on the clothes... Chitari!
"I am in marvel."
.

Wait

Okay, second existential crisis complete; I need to get the fuck out of here, but first.*Deep breaths*
"Aquire Abilities," I said and was immediately assaulted with pain. This time I grit my teeth and didn't scream; no need to alert the swarm to my presence.
After the pain subsided, I knew exactly how to use my power. I put a hand on the roof and stood up, constantly accelerating it and making it 'float' above my hand, giving the illusion of super strength, but it wasn't. With my other hand, I touched the lady's corpse and separated it from the rebar; fortunately, the rebar was straight, so her corpse wasn't mangled more than it already had.
I quickly moved away from under the rubble with her body and let it fall on the Chitari foot soldier that had decided to hunt me—instantly killing it.
I laid the body against a wall and looked around; it was grim, to say the least.
