HxH Evil Sign-In System

As Alfred gradually stirred from the depths of unconsciousness, a jolt of realization surged through him, leaving him breathless. He was ensnared in a thick, viscous substance that clung to his skin like a grotesque second layer, a surreal and revolting cocoon that bound him in place.

The world beyond his confinement was nothing but an impenetrable void, a swirling abyss that seemed to distort and swallow all recognition. Yet, rather than succumbing to panic, an exhilarating thrill coursed through his veins, igniting a spark of curiosity and adventure. The echoing voice of the old man resonated in his mind like a distant drumbeat, urging him to embrace the unknown, to explore the mysteries that beckoned just beyond his reach.

With a resolute surge of determination, Alfred embraced the tantalizing notion that he was on the threshold of an extraordinary adventure, standing at the precipice of a new realm that lay just beyond the slippery confines of his gel-like prison.

Suddenly, a mechanical chime pierced through the obscurity that surrounded him, resonating with a clarity that cut through the dense darkness.

"Ding! System binding in progress…"

Tension filled the air as another chime echoed, "System binding is complete!"

"Welcome, host, to the Evil Sign-In system!"

Alfred paused for a fleeting moment, a mix of hesitation and anticipation swirling within him. Gathering his thoughts, he mentally confirmed his readiness. The system, attuned to his inner voice, continued its explanation, "Host, are you prepared for a detailed overview of the system's functions?"

Alfred took a moment to consider before responding silently, "Yeah."

The system elaborated, its tone almost enthusiastic. "The sign-in system is meticulously designed to reward you through continuous and daily sign-ins. These rewards span a remarkable range, comprising anime abilities, rare artefacts, materials, and equipment, among other treasures waiting to be uncovered."

"Please note, when you acquire an ability from another world, it will be converted and limited to fit within the universe of Hunter X Hunter."

As Alfred soaked in this information, the system carried on. "Additionally, you will see an increased chance of exceptional rewards as you sign in at notable locations."

The anticipation heightened as the system revealed, "The system also boasts an inventory space, which will expand as you grow stronger; your current capacity stands at 25mm."

To Alfred's astonishment, the system introduced an exciting twist. "Each time you achieve a significant milestone in your sign-in journey, you will be granted a special lottery spin ticket!"

Suddenly, an alert sparked to life. "Ding! The system has detected a notable sign-in location: Kikyo Zoldyck's womb."

"Ding! The system has identified an available sign-in. Would you like to proceed with the sign-in?"

As Alfred reflected on the phrase "Kikyo's womb," a realization washed over him — he must be in a fetal state. "I guess I have plenty of time ahead of me before I'm born," he mused, steeling himself for the journey. Resolutely, he commanded the system to proceed with the sign-in, mentally affirming, "Yes."

"Ding! Sign-in at Kikyo Zoldyck's womb successful!"

The atmosphere pulsed with energy as the system continued, "Generating sign-in rewards..."

"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have received the ability of average demon self-healing from Demon Slayer."

The notifications cascaded in rapidly. "Ding! Congratulations on reaching a milestone: '-[sign in for the very first time]-'"

A new prompt emerged on the ethereal screen. "Host, would you like to spin the lottery wheel?"

Without hesitation, Alfred mentally exclaims, "Yes!"

"Spinning the lottery wheel…"

The digital wheel spun with a kaleidoscope of vibrant colours, gradually slowing down until it landed on his prize. "Congratulations, host! You have received the Eight Inner Gate Technique from Naruto."

Eager to delve deeper into his new abilities, Alfred mentally inquired, "System, can you explain the uses of Average Demon regeneration and the Eight Inner Gate technique?"

"Of course," the system responded. "Average Demon regeneration is a passive ability that triggers when you sustain damage, quickly restoring your body to its normal state, albeit at the expense of a very small amount of stamina."

"As for the Eight Inner Gate Technique, it allows you to increase your overall nen flow by 20% for every stage reached, but utilizing higher stages gradually consumes your life force more aggressively. Be advised, if you employ the 8th stage, death will follow once it is turned off."

Alfred pondered this revelation, the allure of the Eight Gates laced with a heavy cost. "Is there any way to mitigate the cost of this skill?" he asked, hope threading through his thoughts.

"There are indeed several strategies to reduce the cost," the system explained. "One of which is to effectively outheal the life drain, allowing you to exist in that mode permanently. Your average demon regeneration is an example of this, yet it's only sufficient to sustain the 1st and, at best, the 2nd stage."

Grateful for the insight, Alfred thanked the system and inquired about how long he had until he was born.

"Host, I estimate a total time of 1 hour and 58 minutes," the system responded.

"Great! That's much shorter than the nine months I had anticipated!" Alfred replied, relief flooding his mind.

Two hours passed in a blur…

Then, the moment arrived. Alfred suddenly felt an intense pulling force, a transition that signalled his impending arrival into the world. Through the darkness, he glimpsed a blinding light beckoning from an opening ahead. He twisted himself, turning headfirst, surrendering to the force that would pull him into the realm of the living.

And thus, the boy was born.
