Jave stared at the blue screen in front of him,blinking in confusion, half because of the bright flash just moments ago, half because of the blue screen.
*Ding!
Congratulations! Since you are the one to unlock the System, you are awarded access to every feature pertaining to with the exception of administrator features!
He stared at it again, not understanding a word.
*Ding!
Primary Menu: PERSONAL STATUS PERSONAL SKILLS PERSONAL CLASS INVENTORY PERSONAL ENCYCLOPEDIA HUD (Heads up display)
----------------------------------------
*** Secondary Menu: PARTY PARTY CHAT SYSTEM SHOP BASIC INFORMATION RANKINGS GLOBAL CHAT GUILDS
Okay, now he was even more confused. What was he suppossed to do?
So the box that said 'Basic information' piqued his interest. Especially because he had no idea about what was going on. Then-
*Ding!
BASIC INFORMATION:
MENU PERSONAL STATUS PERSONAL SKILLS PERSONAL CLASS INVENTORY PERSONAL ENCYCLOPEDIA PARTY PARTY CHAT SYSTEM SHOP BASIC INFORMATION LEVELS EXPERIENCE ATTRIBUTES GLOBAL CHAT RANKINGS GUILDS
And now Jave was overwhelmed. He had no idea what to choose first, or even how to choose for that sake. His eyes settled on the first option and-
Another box appeared. A menu apparantly was some sort of list, with a bunch of options he could choose from. How to choose them? Just think about it. After he was done it was replaced with the 'Basic Information' box. He went through all of the information quickly.
PERSONAL STATUS:
You status gives you the information about your body, mind, and soul. To put it simply, all the information about you is analysed, classified, and then displayed to you.
Command: Think 'Status'. Request knowledge related to your mind, body, or soul.
PERSONAL SKILLS:
You're skills are abilities that are unique and let's you be superhuman. You can obtain them through quests, a particular action, the System Shop, levelling, or by being 'skilled' in something.
Command: Think 'Skills", or request knowledge about skills.
PERSONAL CLASS:
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
You class is what let's you specialize. Each comes with various perks, that is beyond the ordinary. You can level your class by commiting actions that pertain to that class. By leveling you're class, you can also gain new, unique skills.
Command: Think 'Class', or request knowledge about classes.
INVENTORY:
These are personalized pocket dimensions that allow you to store upto 9 items that may not weigh more than fifty kilograms at default. In order to upgrade it, you must spend money in the System Shop. You may also upgrade as a reward from a quest.
You're inventory will be displayed at the bottom right corner of your vision in the for of a chest. To access it, you must think of doing so, and your various items will be displayed at the bottom of your screen. Select or think of a particular object to either access, or store it.
Note: Some items may not be carryable in the inventory. You may have to upgrade you're inventory to store them.
And so on.
After reading their descriptions, Jave couldn't hep but be amazed. So much that he had trouble beleiving it was real. But after all that had happened over the past few days, he was a bit less sceptic than he should've been. But he wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth, so to speak, so he just accepted it.
And now-
Status!

Interesting, thought Jave. He understood why he had the skills and stats he had, except for the Charisma and Mentality attributes and the 'Charm' skill. The manipulation skils he knew came from the class, so did the energy creation skill. As for the [Untouchable Mind] skill... he had no idea what to think about that. It sounded to good to be real. And so just dismissed it.
He rolled his shoulders and dismissed the screen. He now observed his 'HUD'. He had found out earlier that he could customize it, because he had access after unlocking the system, whatever that meant. So, he had left the white and gold chest as it was, and set the mana bar at his top right corner as a glass tube filled with violet mana potion, topping off the end with gold caps. His 'Health' bar was dangerously low, he realized.
The System had displayed that you would not necessarily die if your HP ran out, only that if it was that was way for too long, then you would die. Unless, of course, there was a dagger lodged in your head. Or throat. Or heart. Point was, certain status effects would not immediately kill.
But that gave him a week or less before he died of hunger. And that was if he managed to reach the cave in two days. He knew thirst would kill much faster.
And so he set off towards the direction he came, willing the spell he had made before into existence, with one thought in mind.
The land of madness was no more.
