System Announcement Welcome Members of the First Wave. You are the trailblazers of this new frontier. As you will have to build the pathway to power on your own, all shall receive a limited assistance. These will offer basic explanations to your classes as well as the overall functions within this world. Your AI assistants will possess a limited intelligence matrix that will be semi-autonomous and loyal to your person. May you forge a path that pushes your boundaries and evolve.

Welcome Master.

Alex groaned as he lay on the rough ground. Looking around he saw a small ball of light. Remembering the system he nodded to his assistant then asked it a question.

"Where are we?" Looking upall alex could see were an endless sea of stars across the night sky.

We are currently located on an asteroid in an unknown star system approximately 17 light years from Earth.

'Well that is both good and bad. If I had to set up a dungeon then I am glad that it wasn't on any asteroid near Earth as that could have messed up some gravitational science things.' Alex could only stop thinking about how far away he was from his home as he noticed that he should be dead.

"System. Why is it that I am not dead from the lack of oxygen?"

This is currently a game world. As the master of the territory where you are standing, master does not have to worry about lack of life sustainability.

"Are you suggesting that as long as it is within my territory I can't be killed"

Negative. You are only excused from basic life support such as oxygen, food, and water until your dungeon reaches a suitable requirement.

That did make a lot more sense as there would be no way to establish a dungeon on an asteroid if the Dungeon Master dies as soon as he is spawned.

"Well then, since we have that taken care of. System, how do I establish my dungeon?"

Master only needs to state your class skill to do so.

Alex only looked confused before he understood what was happening. The announcement did say that the AI's would possess a semi-autonomous intelligence. In layman terms it is only capable of accessing information and perform a task when requested. Now realizing the weakness, Alex can now proceed without having another one of these plunders.

"Alright system. Explain to me my Menu then the process of establishing my dungeon."

Acknowledged Master. To access your Menu all you ahve to do is think the word while focusing on your body.

Doing so Alex saw a screen.

Body Status: Healthy Mental Status: Healthy Stats (+) Classes (+)

The body and mental statuses are only there as a reminder in the case of injury, stress or the like. Stats only show aspects of yourself that have been augmented due to your classes. No stats will be augmented as your class has not yet been activated. Imagine viewing all you classes in a list.

When Alex focused as his system had directed his vision zoomed in on that one tab. When the previous Menu was out of focus his Class became visible with a single skill under it.

Classes (-)

Dungeon Master

- Establish Core

To utilize the skill all Master has to do it audibly say the name of the skill. This will occur for all skills obtained until the player has enough proficiency in controlling the skill.

Hm. "So what you are saying is that stating the name of the skill is leaving the System to automatically do it until I can on my own? Like having a book read to you in another language when compared to you reading it yourself?"

That analogy is suitable as an explaination.

Alex rolled his shoulders as he said. "[Establish Core]." At once, his body felt like he was no longer in control. Moving on its own, he extended his right hand in front of him while turning his palm up in the air. His hand made a motion as if he were grasping something in his finger tips.

A small speck of light shown in between his fingers. The surrounding space vibrated a little as if there was a heat wave. Once the light stopped a small crystal pebble was floating above his hand. When the rock fell, Alex's hand grasped it tightly and put back to his side.

Amazed at the strange light show while also having a cold shiver after having his body moved like a puppet under someones strings. A screen appears once more with only 3 names.

Labyrinth Tower Expanse

These are the dungeon types that are available to be chosen. At your current strength as well as the overall size of the asteroid only one type may be selected.

Looking over each thrice Alex decided to ask the system a question. "Is there anything you are able to tell me about any of these?"

Alex was hopeful that he did not have to make a blind leap of faith with no information to go off of. Sadly his fear was made to light.

Negative. The Dungeon Master is to choose based on their own individual instincts. This was done to ensure that some form of diversity is achieved between masters themselves.

Alex sighed in response. What his AI said made sense, but all he could feel was disappointment. Although each dungeon would have some form of being unique from this way of separating starting positions it would still help to have some form of information.

Thinking a bit based on the dungeons of various games that he played he made his choice.

"I choose..."
