System Tutorial Dungeon
Chapter 4
*Congratulations System Tutorial has examined your spark and equalized it out. If you accept you shall receive the passive skill [Personal Pocket-Realm] and the advanced skill [Divine Avatar] (Yes) or (No). If you don’t agree, then your spark shall return to your abilities till you use it again.
Two new skills if I accepted. Personal Pocket-Realm would be what Gabe would need to stop surviving his unending struggle to stay alive. The divine Avatar skill was especially amazing! I could create a clone of myself! I understood that I could create the clone and put him in the same room size pocket realm of mine and that avatar clone could act with its own brain. If the clone is to die, I would gain all its experiences. This was an epic ability.
I concentrated on the question and answered yes. Now I can die, and not die! I needed to see it in my stats! “Stats.” I stated.

Sure enough, both skills were there! I wonder if Gabe is in the new pocket realm. I questioned and with my eyes still closed concentrated on where I knew the pocket realm was.
Like a snap my attention was right there where the pocket realm was… But Gabe wasn’t there. Following the path of where he was before, I found him there still struggling more than ever.
Bert: ‘Gabe, I got a new pocket realm can you go there?’ I asked, but as soon as I finished Gabe disappeared. Snaping back to that pocket realm there he was laying down in the nothing room.
Gabe: ‘Open your eyes and keep an eye on your surroundings, I’ll be just a second.’ Gabe said in a relaxing voice.
I did as he asked and snapped my eyes open, looking around. It was all dark, But I could see everything as if it was daytime. It smelt like a damp cave. I could hear a strange scratching noise in the direction I was facing from being teleported. I should activate my avatar. It would be better to fight whatever is in here with two of me.
I kept my eyes open, like Gabe requested even though I couldn’t see much and concentrated on the ability [Avatar (1)]. The darkness made the window bright, but the light I saw on the rest of the cave could not be seen. So that means no other people would see the windows I have open.
*[Avatar (1)] as being a divine skill, this skill takes no power to use. Must transfer one un-equipped class to Avatar. Upon death of you or Avatar class is returned to the remaining survivor.
As I read the definition, I understood how to call upon my clone that I must materialize in my pocket realm. The Energy around the pocket realm room was nearly endless. Just a small spark of power from the highest and most powerful god an ‘Elder God’. It made me feel small, and powerful.
I allowed the skill to guide me in the process of creating my clone. The power was quick to converge on the room, across from Gabe’s surprised face a little me stood naked in the room. A notification appeared to guide me to finish the processes.
*Please select a class to equip to your avatar.
I must choose a class for my new clone.
I decided to not choose a class, more to see what would happen… And like that it just didn’t get a class.

Class:
Apparently, my two summoning abilities didn’t follow me, which made sense. I was the clone; I could sense my main self-observing me and Gabe looking at each other.
Gabe: Gabe’s face went from surprise to unbelief. “I see it, I see you. Truly a divine avatar.” Realization came to his face now. “You used the spark! I didn’t know Sparks could just copy a god’s ability. This will be very good.”
Gabe: Gabe thought for a second then seemed to come to an arrangement. “As this is a divine skill, I as your guardian angel, can travel between your clones! I sense dungeon creatures close by. It would be wise for you.” He then pointed to me, the clone. “To go in front and fight for your life, keeping your main body protected.”
I saw the logic, and I was excited to go for it. I expanded my senses past this pocket realm to a bird’s eye view around my main body. I picked a spot in the dark in front of my main body and thought myself towards it. I landed on my feet, naked in front of my main body. My feet felt the cold stone floor and I jabbed something sharp into my right foot. Pulling my leg up in pain, I nearly fell as I sent little rocks going everywhere. I felt my right foot forward feeling out the ground till I found a comfortable spot to place my right foot.
I couldn’t even walk through this, how was I supposed to fight whatever I was supposed to fight. Then the scariest sound enhanced my anxiety and fear. A deep quiet growl came from all around me because of the echo. Whatever just growled… was big!
I could see far ahead of me, and it was only to a turn at least 200 feet ahead of me. Immediately I thought about the kung fu I had mastered in my own heaven and quickly meditated with my eyes open watching that turn for anything that might pop its head about.
I happened to be a kung fu master, and I was able to open 5 of my chakra gates, hopefully those abilities remained. Slowly I felt inside locating my first gate and with the power of will alone I was able to open the gate unleashing the familiar chakra within my body.
Before I could move to open my second gate, I received a notification which hindered my concentration. With annoyance I opened it up while still watching the corner.
*Congratulations You have used a skill without knowing the skill. You have unlocked a hidden class
*Congratulations, you have unlocked a mastery of the first degree
Battle Monk? All I did was access my chi. First Degree? Did it mean that I unlocked the first out of ten chakra gates?
Gabe: “You should move ahead to keep whatever is coming away from your original self, because if the original dies, then this was for not.” Gabe surprised me as I felt I could hear him talking as if he was standing by me. I could see right away that I was wrong, and that he was in the pocket realm that apparently was different from the one my original one had. I needed to confirm this, but it would have to be later.
With my first chakra Gate open, I already felt much stronger, faster and more durable. The small rocks were no longer an annoyance, and I started to quickly move through the tunnel.
“Stats” I stated wondering what my stats were at.

[Runt Survival] *activates 10 seconds before your death!
Wow, only my first gate was open, and I had plus ten to my strength and constitution! This is a lot more than when I spared with Susej! For some reason I could now summon the Jhinn weapon, or Gabe… Perhaps this was because he was now in my head and not in the main body’s head? Another experiment I would need to do later.
Before I got to the turn in the tunnel a dog like creature came barreling around the corner, and it immediately jumped at me with sharp teeth. I instinctively punched out with my fist, and the dog like creature with buck teeth latched on. The pain was immediate except for the fact that I was pretty pain tolerant with all the pain in hell I had experienced not too long ago.
I gave it a few kicks to hit its main body while it held onto my arm with no luck so I swung it against the cavern walls but could feel my muscle tearing.
(47/50 health) (10/10 Power) (29/30 Endurance.)
In my peripheral vision I noticed the name and damage of the beast. This is so like a game that it was comical.
Gabe: ‘Skaven’s, there is more you must try to aggro them all.’ Gabriel’s voice scared me that I had jumped a little bit then calmed myself down. I tried again to remove the dog’s mouth from my arm but only succeeded in smashing it more.
Bert: ‘Why can’t I get this thing off my arm?’ I questioned Gabe, hoping he could help me. Then to follow what he told me I yelled with my mouth. “Yip Yip, come get a piece of this innocent naked human here!”
I felt a notification in the back of my mind and realized that it must have sounded when the Skaven creature died. So, I pulled it up just to quickly see it.
*You have defeated a level 5 Skaven hound. You have been rewarded with 5 experience points. Only 5 more to reach your level Keep it going.
So weird how this is exactly like a game. I wonder what leveling up will feel like.
Before I could contemplate anything else, another two rat hounds appeared around the corner. They quickly pounced at me, but I was able to dodge it and thinking about my main body I quickly snatched them out of the air and with all my strength threw them against the cavern wall, while still moving around the corner.
To my surprise there was a massive rat humanoid with a club cocked back already rocketing forward towards my head. I ducked down and punched towards the creature’s open torso with a practiced wing chun punch. Before I could continue my assault, I saw a cloaked rat aiming a staff with a green light shooting from it towards us. I quickly dodged to the side and watched as the green flame lit up the muscle-bound rat with the club.
Gabe: ‘It is the Skaven’s hounds’ ability, it’s a kill strike that cannot be prevented. Usually, only tanks can survive their attacks with enough constitution.’ Gabe seemed to be analyzing me while I watched the ‘Skaven Brute’ as it was called from my notifications get burned alive.
Gabe: ‘Skaven warrior, he is coming in for another…’ Before Gabe could finish, I watched the burning Skaven Brute swing his club at me again.
Gabe: ‘There is many, you must aggro them all… One is heading towards your main body.’ Gabe stated and when he said it, I felt the creature stalking my main body. How…? Before I could finish the question, knowledge flooded through my mind. Gabe had shown me what he was seeing, and it was like a sonar bling and a wave went out revealing all the creatures in this tunnel I was in.
Knowing my main body was in danger, I quickly jumped up in front of the warrior that was coming in with another swing. I brought up my left arm to grab the club coming in and kicked as hard as I could this muscle-bound rat looking creature in the ‘no no square.’
I then quickly ran towards the rat holding the staff and what looked like cheap robes closing in on my main. It had bones around its shoulders and on its chest. Some kind of sick looking talisman.
The rat stopped going towards my main body when it noticed me running at it. It held up its hand and a green light appeared at the end of its finger then raced towards me, I easily dodged it, and tackling the weird rat mage I brought up my hands to its head and tried to crush its head, but the skull wouldn’t break under my hands. I swiped my fingers through its eyes, and accidentally crushed the creature’s skull.
Another notification binged, but I ignored it and the others that had sounded before. I gotta poke their eyes out then their head becomes weak? To test my hypothesis, I ran towards another Skaven Brute that was running towards me and I jumped up above the rat’s club swing and with surprise that I could jump that high I came down behind the warrior. I quickly turned around and jumped on the creature’s back digging my fingers into its eye sockets, and the head crushed like thin paper.
Sensing no other creatures anywhere close to me, I examined all the corpses around me to double check that they were all dead.
Seeing that we were safe, I looked back at my main body and seen him sitting down in a meditation stance. Well, whatever he was doing, I was the bodyguard so I kept my attention down the cave as far I could see, but only saw it slowly turn to the left a ways down.
Gabe: ‘How did you do that?’ Gabe asked, I could feel him inside my head now. I knew that if I looked at my stats that they would show my two summon skills. My guess was when he was in my body the main body lost the skill to do just that.
I looked around the tunnel again, seeing no immediate threat I checked my notifications.
*You have defeated a level 6 Skaven hound. You have been rewarded with 5 experience points.
*Congratulations, you have reached the threshold of your level. 11/10 experience, you are now level 1. You have been rewarded with one stat point.
*You have defeated a level 4 Skaven hound. You have been rewarded with 4 experience points. 5/20 experience till next level.
*You have defeated a level 8 Skaven Shaman. You have been rewarded with 8 experience points. 13/20
*You have received
*You have defeated a level 8 Skaven Brute. You have been rewarded with 8 experience points.
*Congratulations, you have reached the threshold for your level. 21/20 experience, you are now level 2. You have been rewarded with one stat point.
I skimmed through the notifications; I received Rare Loot! How does that work?
Excited about the
*Level 8
Umm, yes thank you. As if the loot could hear my answer, I experienced a pop and a weird looking staff with bones hanging from the top appeared in my space. I held out my hand and with a pop of black smoke the staff appeared in my hands. Then I gave the notification a quick glance before closing it.
*Congratulations you have received a staff. Staff gives +1 power, and +1 power hour regain.
No way! I thought, then I made it disappear with another pop. Then I looked down at the brute corpse and touched it with my hand. With another pop of black smoke, the body disappeared into my inventory. I looked around for the club weapon, but it was nowhere to be seen. But this staff was on the weird shaman rat, so I looked over to it then quickly walked over to it. The dead shaman was naked… no gear, no weapon. I decided with unlimited inventory to go ahead and pop the shaman then the three hounds as well.
With a weird twist of my mind, I felt my main body requesting me to release myself, so my experience could be collected by my main self. Seeing that we were safe, and no other creatures were around to endanger my main self, I released myself. I felt my body wisp away with a clap of air smacking into the space I was just in.

As soon as I created my clone I watched with mild interest as my clone self-looked at the giant Angel in front of him.
Gabe: Gabe’s face went from surprise to unbelief. “I see it, I see you. Truly a divine avatar.” Realization came to his face now. “You used the spark! I didn’t know Sparks could just copy a god’s ability. This will be very good.”
Did he just say a god’s ability? Does that mean only gods have this ability? Questions I must research later.
Gabe: Gabe had his thinking face equipped with a short pause before he spoke; “As this is a divine skill, I as your guardian angel, can travel among you clones! I sense dungeon creatures close by. It would be wise for you.” He then pointed to my clone, before he continued. “To go in front and fight for your life, keeping your main body protected.”
I concentrated on my clone and could see he was processing this information then he just disappeared. I felt my heart shoot up into my throat, wondering where my clone was going.
Gabe: ‘Be calm, your clone is a few meters in front of you.’ Gabe voiced, which surprised me. How did he know that I was panicking? ‘You need to make no noise there is a few Skaven’s in front of us in the tunnel.’ Gabe voiced me.
I tried to see myself in front of me, but I couldn’t see anything as my clone moved beyond the turn down the tunnel. Then a startle crept up my back when I heard a growl. It sounded too deep to be something small!
Then I heard many growls and a scuffing noise. This was terrifying! I didn’t hear any rational noises, I was positive my clone was getting mangled, and I was next.
What Could I do? Gabe told me to be calm. I took a slow quiet breath and slowly sat down on the ground getting into my meditative state.
That leaves the classes, as much as I didn’t want to use a disgusting class that could only be evil. I would master it! I would make sure not to use it for evil. With my decision decided I went ahead and equipped the Necromancer Lord class.
I heard the notification inside of my head, but it couldn’t distract me from the aura that was floating around me. This, this was power, it felt amazing. “Stats” I stated excited to see what the class had done to me.

My max power was through the roof, and it felt exhilarating. Trying to refocus my thoughts from the amount of power that was radiating from me, it felt like pure god level energy.
I heard a voice; it broke me out of my reverie. It was Gabe, but when I investigated the pocket realm he wasn’t there. Where did he go?
Then to my amazement, my clone gave a quick smirk then tackled the cloaked rat down to the ground. I decided to take a quick glance at the notifications that were going off in my head.
*You have equipped the class
Umm, Great Reaper? Should I un-equip the class? Another scuffle and a gurgle had echoed through the tunnel. I tried to scan the area, but I was unable to see anything past the corner of the tunnel. This class didn’t give me any skills or spells, broken the Tutorial System had said.
I then mentally un-equipped the class and equipped the

The power from necromancer looked like +15, other than that nothing happened, no new skills, no spells, no reapers coming for my heart.
Gabe: ‘Your avatar has killed all the creatures in our vicinity. And has gained some interesting skills, you should have it release so you can have them as well.’ I don’t know what excited me more, the fact that the clone killed what ever was all in here naked. Or that my clone has gotten some interesting skills.
I reached out with my mind knowing where my clone was for some reason and mentally told it to release. After a few seconds, my clone’s experiences all collapsed into mine, as if I was the one who just killed them all. My clone appeared in my pocket realm with Gabe.
I’ve made it to level 2, and I had a piece of equipment. I stood up, then held out my hand and made the staff appear in my hands. I felt the one extra point in my max power bringing it to 26. But the Regain was the most exciting, now I could restore my power!
I could feel my clone inside of my pocket realm with my guardian angel. It only stayed there for a second before it appeared in front of me and began to slowly move down the tunnel.
