Ruinous Future: Dreams of Death

In an endless white expanse of nothingness, a black dot was visible. It was visible from everywhere one looked, it was as if the dot drew one\'s gaze upon itself.

As one grew closer, they would realize that the dot was actually a pitch-black figure with no discernable features on its body or face. The figure assumed a balled-up position with a small, incandescent light burned brightly inside of the figure.

The figure looked to be cradling the small light. 

The small light was a ring woven of infinite golden threads, with a single white pearl in the middle that bound the woven threads together.

The figure let out a small breath, and then took a small breath in, the figure was asleep.

This was its endless dream.

In a world where magical Trials allowed humanity to challenge the Domains that plagued Earth, Bellona Finley dreamt of her death.

Such was a curse she bore. After having enough of it, Bellona chose to accept the rewards of her first Trial. This action would force her to go to the Terrarium, a prestigious academy that trained those who would challenge the Domains.

Before she could reach the Terraium, though, she has to catch a ride on the bullet train leading from New York City to Vatican City.

She dreams of a simple life far from danger, but will she be able to attain that dream? Or will she die in obscurity before even challenging her first Domain?

Hello, author here. It\'d be really nice if you read my book. I upload one 2.5k word chapter per day!

Bell doesn\'t just get overpowered because of the system, hell, she doesn\'t even get it for a while! She really has to work to get all the power she has.

Side characters? I hope they\'re interesting, that\'s the goal of them!

Worldbuilding? Yeah, it\'s good. Really good, even.
