Reincarnated with the Country System

Stormbreaker

Alberto fingers curled into a fist as he heard the words crackling through the encrypted transmission.

"Your Majesty, we are not entirely sure about this. But his power is steadily increasing. He has become a monster. He has surpassed Level 7. Even the SS has failed to stop him."

Elizabeth continued.

"I have sent additional reinforcements. However, we are not sure how long they can hold him off. I suggest that if he surpasses Level 5, we should destroy the entire facility using a Nuke. Because, according to the latest reports I have received, Caspian's power may surpass even Circe."

Alberto's jaw clenched.

He exhaled sharply.

"I should have killed that motherfucker when we captured him." His voice was low, dangerous. "If I had, we wouldn't be in this shitstorm."

The Imperial Black Site, although far from the city, was not that far. It was only 40 kilometers from the capital

If Caspian made it out—no, when he made it out—

"The damage will be catastrophic."

Elizabeth hesitated for half a second before delivering another blow.

"Your Majesty, there have been reports of a monster attack near New Belly City. It was a chimera. A total of nine civilians died. The police SWAT team was able to kill it. I have ordered additional police and military deployment throughout the area."

Alberto felt his blood turn ice cold.

Monsters? Again?

His voice was a knife. "What!? Where the fuck did this thing come from? I thought we exterminated every last one in the forest."

Elizabeth's answer was immediate.

"It seems that the dungeons near the Belly Valley have started spawning monsters again. We have detected many more monsters in the forest. Currently, the army and ISSD teams are working to eliminate them. We have also sent an entire battalion of SS to contain the situation."

Alberto ran a hand down his face.

One problem after another.

The Imperial Black Site was falling.

The dungeons had reactivated, spilling horrors back into the world like an infected wound.

Coincidence?

No.

Something—someone—was pulling the strings.

He turned, eyes dark with resolve. "Maximum speed. I want to be in the Mainland in ten minutes."

And then—

"Damn it," Alberto muttered. "Let's see what these pricks want."

He reached forward, fingers brushing against the luminescent text. The moment his skin made contact, reality fractured.

COMMUNICATING WITH DIVINE BEINGS…

Establishing Connection…

Connection Achieved: Lesser God Detected [Name Unknown]

Status: Neutral | Amused

A sudden pressure gripped the room.

The air became thick, heavy, as if something enormous had leaned into existence, pressing against the fragile walls of mortality. A sound—not quite thunder, not quite laughter, but something between the two—rolled through the space.

A voice followed, its timbre like molten gold poured over jagged stone.

"You call upon us, mortal emperor. What do you want now? Are you prepared to pay the price?"

Alberto exhaled sharply, his breath fogging in the sudden chill. His instincts screamed at him—this was no simple god. This was something old, predatory, and dangerous.

Still, he wasn't about to be intimidated. Not by a celestial. Not by anything.

"You're damn right I'm prepared," he said, voice sharp as a drawn blade. "The world is going to shit. I need more power. And I need it now."

The silence that followed stretched too long, winding into something almost unbearable.

Then, the voice chuckled.

"Ambitious. Reckless. Mortal rulers never change."

A flash of light seared across his vision. New panels materialized, etching themselves into reality.

Alberto's eyes narrowed.

This was more than just power—it was a goddamn binding. He'd be tying himself to something that would have expectations.

But what choice did he have?

Caspian was breaking through the Black Site. The dungeons were active again. And the nuclear option? Too risky. He wasn't about to burn his own empire to the ground because of one mistake.

He reached out.

His finger hovered over the "Accept" button for just a fraction of a second before—

Click.

The moment the contract was sealed, a sharp pain lanced through his skull. His vision exploded into a storm of color, symbols burning themselves into his retinas. His veins lit up like molten wire, his very flesh rippling with an unfamiliar heat.

And then—

Power.

It flooded through him, roaring like a tidal wave breaking against his bones.
