Hyunwoo groans, light flooding into his sight as he awoke from what felt like a decade’s worth of sleep; his memories were hazy at the moment but even without them he could tell he'd never seen the bedroom he was in. He pushes himself into a sitting position, scanning the unfamiliar place. It was a fairly simple room that felt similar to his childhood bedroom, the Bookshelf placement, Wardrobe, Desk and bed to items lying around for example the bookshelf was full of Novels -Though at the moment Hyunwoo couldn't actually tell what they were about or what Genre they were- with small figurines all over it and a lone book placed on top, and the desk had various art supplies scattered over it, Even these black blankets reminded Hyunwoo of his old bedroom. The familiarity of the structure of the strange room brought Hyunwoo's memories back full swing, the sudden rush of information causing him to double over due to pain he honestly shouldn't have felt regarding getting over his temporary memory fog. It was at this moment, with his memories returned, that Hyunwoo realized it was physically impossible for him to be alive right now; he'd happily bid farewell to life mere moments ago hoping death would finally relieve his suffering! He's torn out of his confusion and mild panic by a small, blue, video game-like pop-up screen.
Hello Hyunwoo!
You have been given a second chance at life in another world.
Let me be the first to welcome you to Oasis.
Unfortunately, I could not preserve your old body
However, I have found you a new one with roughly the same features!
Would you like a rundown of the current status of your new self?

Hyunwoo raises his eyebrow, scratching the back of his head. "My new self...? Uh... Sure." That pop-up disappears, followed by a second appearing.

Hyunwoo stares at the first skill on the list, its existence leaving a foul taste in his mouth. "I'm almost insulted you thought it was a great idea to turn the root of all my problems into a skill." A second pop-up appears beside the status screen.
Oasis has many laws against harming Elven Royalty.
Hyunwoo sighs, shaking his head. "What exactly does that mean for me?" The pop-up disappears, another appearing in its place
Miles
High Elf Prince
Hyunwoo glances around the room he was in; yeah, no way THAT was a thing. As if reading his thoughts, the Pop up declaring his new self a prince disappears, replaced by another
This is Prince Miles' hideout.
Prince Miles was an introvert who frequently hid away from his responsibilities.
In that moment, it occurred to Hyunwoo that this "New Self" wasn't just some reconstruction of his body but that he'd actually taken over someone else's body. "And, uh, what exactly happened to His Highness?"

Melding Prince Miles' soul and memories with Park Hyunwoo.
My apologies for the pain.
Hyunwoo jolts doubling over again, the second round of memories was somehow more painful than the first as his Brain tried -And failed- to compensate for the inconsistencies created by having another person's memories forcefully slotted into his own memories like a Hexagon block being forced into the square hole in a children's toy. In mere seconds Miles gained years of life experience as Elven Royalty, Names, Faces, Voices, people he'd never met, Feelings he'd never felt, Experiences he'd never had and yet they all felt like they belonged to him "Stars above.... Never do that again..."
Process Complete!
The being known as Prince Miles of Moonglade
Has successfully become one with the being known as Park Hyunwoo!
Congratulations!
You are now ready to begin your new life as Prince Miles!
Good luck
^_^
With that the pop-up screens all disappeared leaving Hyunwoo alone in the Prince's hideout with a throbbing headache he had no way to get rid of and memories he didn't know what to do with "Uh... H-HEY COME BACK!" a pop up appears in response
Yes?
Hyunwoo massages his temples trying to relieve his headache. "Who are you exactly?"
I am the system responsible for giving you a second chance at life
I will be responsible for updating your status screen as well
Alleviating your pain.

...
Process Complete!
Hyunwoo tilts his head, His pain WAS in fact gone but he wasn't sure if he believed this was really just some A.I. system like the ones in the Novels he'd read when he was younger, this one seemed a bit too sentient "Can I give you a name?"
If you wish
Hyunwoo racks his brain for a good name for his new companion; if he really wanted to, he could just call it Chegye, but that felt a bit too literal for his taste. "Haru, I'll name you Haru."
Then, I shall go by [Haru] from now onwards.
You differ from others who have used the system
Most would not give me a passing thought.
Much less a human name
Hyunwoo laughs awkwardly; was that meant as a good thing or a bad thing? Had he somehow started himself off on hard mode by personifying the system? "I mean, we'll be companions from now on, right? Oh! I should formally introduce myself then!" He pushes himself out of bed, bowing to the pop-up window. "I am Park Hyunwoo or, I guess now, I'm Prince Miles; it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Haru!"
You... are quite polite.
I am unsure how to react to such behavior
Then... I shall say this;
It's a pleasure to serve you, Hyunwoo.
