My Plot Armor System

Chapter 2: First Mission

[ Your first Mission as Plot Armor has been automatically started. ]

[ Mission Subject: Iris Platina. ]

[ Mission Objective: Survival ]

[ Mission Mode: Unlimited ]

Words resonated within Damians head in this unknown state of semi-consciousness. Thankfully, the endless veil of darkness didnt last long. Except

As soon as his vision was restored, Damian found himself in mid-air. He was quickly flying towards something as if he was thrown at it!

What the-

Damian tried to brace for the impact, but it was like he no longer had any control over his body. Thankfully, the crash that he was expecting didnt take place.

Everything went dark again. This time, however, he was able to open his eyes. Only his perspective was reversed yet again.

Im getting dizzy.

In his panic, Damian couldnt take the whole scenery in as he fell, yet that scenery was already inverted.

Did someone or something adjust my position after protecting me from the wall?

Still failing to catch up with the speed things were happening, Damian slowly scanned the area around him to find out where he landed.

There were rocks and more rocks, even the walls were all made of rocks like he was inside a large cave. There was also some faint greenery here and there, as well as a cute floating ghost.

Thankfully, there was also a reflective surface.

Noticing the shallow water puddle, Damian was just about to learn forward to check himself for injuries when realized that something was wrong.

Wait!

Did the absurdity of the situation screw up his common sense? Why was he calmly reacting to something insane like a real ghost?!

Looking back, Damians eyes widened as he scrutinized the faded projection of a silver-haired beauty clad in tattered armor.

Crazy.

Now that he looked at her closely, this ghost didnt look like she was silently haunting him. She was continuously flailing her arms with panic spilling out of her eyes. She even seemed to be trying to say something

{Give my body back!}

Once Damian focused his attention on her moving mouth, the ghosts' silenced words got through!

[ Subject Possession complete. ]

Hearing what she had to say followed by the return of the message window, Damians mind processed everything down to one conclusion

No way, right?

The point of his fall was very blurry when he crashed into it, but now that he tried to recall, it did have the general shape of a human body.

Was the reason for his safe crash that he was a weightless soul like her just a few seconds ago? Did this nonsensical system actually throw him into possessing a girl?!

Even if you are going to transmigrate me, at least- Oh?

Damian rushed toward the water puddle to confirm his guess while barely holding back his curses. However, things were a little bit different than what he expected.

His average but defined face did get a bit more handsome and his black hair had strangely turned silver platinum, but his body was still the same.

More muscles as well?

Rather, his body looked a tad more manly as his muscles felt tighter. He also shared the tattered armor that the ghost wore

[ As the Subjects gender clashes with that of their chosen Plot Armor, physical characteristics had been temporarily altered. ]

As the words displayed on the timely message window echoed with a neutral voice in his head, Damians confusion lessened, albeit very slightly

Phew!

He still couldnt grasp everything, but whatever was happening, gender bender was something that Damian could never accept!

Thankfully, just as Damian was about to start figuring out his current situation, more information was provided by the source of his troubles.

[ This is your first test as a Preliminary Plot Armor Administrator. Your Mission has been randomly picked. ]

[ Mission Details: Mission Subject has encountered a near-death situation, fulfill your Mission Subjects destiny by surviving in her place until all imminent danger is lifted to earn Fate Points and return to Origin World. ]

This is

Being introduced to such a familiar screen once again, Damian was suddenly enlightened about his situation.

Isnt this just like the game?

The first message was wholly new. However, the two that followed it were only slightly different from the introduction that popped up whenever Damian started a new level in Fates Guide!

Was this the identity of the Plot Armor System? Was it an instrument that allowed him to experience Fates Guide from a realistic point of view?

Spatial Gates and Superhumans exist, so it isnt impossible, but

Was this real or just a VR-like simulation? Did he truly get sent to another world to fulfill a mission like he always did from behind the screen?

Damian had to jump a few steps to reach such a conclusion. However, unless he was dreaming, he felt that the chances were pretty good. Everything just seemed to fit!

It wasnt called the Fate Guiding System, but the new name wasnt that far off. Thinking back to the many steps that he went through to get the characters to reach their turning point, being their Plot Armor was pretty plausible.

So, I need to survive this place and I could obtain Fate Points and go back?

Once he put things into context, Damian felt less detached from the situation. Naturally, he couldnt just accept this surprise Possession, but he had to start considering what to do next.

The option to go back meant that this wasnt a Transmigration situation, his own body wasnt dead Hopefully. Getting back to it was the tough part here.

If this was anything like the game, a one-target mission like survival was probably the most complicated of them all.

What caused Damians heart to beat faster, however, was the Fate Points.

If I can use them, then

In Fates Guide, this was the most important currency a player could obtain, shortened to FP, and it had many uses. Whether it worked the same way in reality was another story though.

Just as his renewed understanding of the danger flooded his mind with anxiety, Damian was a little excited about the end prospects of this unfortunate situation. Perhaps realizing his fantasies wasnt so impossible after all

Although he didnt grasp the whole situation just yet, it wouldnt be too late to do that step by step just like he did in the game before starting to panic.

Most importantly, there was already an apparent advantage that Damina never had in the game!

Lets start by asking her.

Compared to the Character Setting page that he got at the start of every level, Damian now had the character itself to ask her for every little detail.

In truth, getting to converse with the character was the thing that Damian was currently the most excited about!

Hey, you Iris. Can you hear me? Lets have a chat first.

This ghost No, this girl seemed to misunderstand the situation, so they had to reach a proper understanding first.

[ Skill Synchro in process ]

Hm?

[ Information Transmission Complete. Temporary Time Stop lifted. ]

[ Save Point created. ]

However, just as the girl finally stopped making a ruckus and turned to Damian, more message windows kept popping up, and by the time Damian processed what they meant

Shik!

A shadow flew out of nowhere, directly landing on his neck. Before Damian could process the pain itself, his world went dark again.

[ You have died. ]

That was how Damians first encounter with death came to be.

Trivia: Transmigration starts with death before the person wakes up in someone elses body in a new world.

Possession is just getting whisked away from your body/world and put into someone elses body, either in the same world or a different one.
