The evening sky glowed faintly orange as the city lights flickered awake one by one.
Inside a small room, Alex, a 21-year-old college student, sat cross-legged on his bed, a half-eaten packet of chips beside him and Iron Man playing on his laptop.
On-screen, Iron Man soared through the clouds, dodging missiles with ease.
Alex smiled faintly. "Man… if only life was this cool. Instead, I've got assignments, deadlines, and such a boring life ."
He paused the movie and sighed. Movies were his escape — worlds where the impossible was normal, where heroes mattered, and one person could change everything.
In reality, he was just another face in the crowd.
As he leaned back, his eyelids grew heavy. The hum of the ceiling fan blended with the glow of the laptop screen… until both faded into silence.

Darkness surrounded him.
The last thing he remembered was the sound of the ceiling fan—then nothing.
When he opened his eyes again, he wasn't in his room. He was standing in a white void, surrounded by floating, glowing screens.

Alex's breath caught. "What the hell—did I fall asleep watching too much sci-fi?"
The blue text shimmered in response.

Another message blinked before his eyes.

A pulse of heat spread through his body. The ground beneath him rippled like liquid light.

A new window appeared.

Curious, Alex began scrolling. The shop was endless — filled with powers, weapons, even bloodlines.
Then one item caught his eye.

"Perfect," he muttered, hitting Purchase without hesitation.
Instantly, heat surged through his veins. His muscles tightened, his frame stretched taller, broader. In seconds, his reflection in a nearby screen showed a man built like an athlete — sharp-jawed, powerful, confident. He looked like someone born to lead.
