Kaue the gamer
Chapter 1: Reading the tutorial
Previous ChapterHey there guys! If you read the prologue, than you already know what is already going on. I was falling a thousand feet from the sky, going at speed that might rival a race car and with no chance of surviving the fall. Of course I took it like it like a badass... Okay, I was screaming like a little girl.
"AHHHHH!", I was terrified and completely forgot that the buisness guy was the one that did this to me. I was trying slow down by flapping my arms like a bird- hey, facing certain death tends to cause anyone to do stupid things to survive. Heck, I even pulled out a priest hat and a shaman's wand and prayed to god to save me out of nowhere. I was closing in to the ground below me and I decided to cover my eyes and rolled myself up like a ball and screamed all the way. I crashed into the ground, My whole body splattered all over the place and I lost all heat. I had died once again if I hit the ground at that speed. Luckily, I somehow landed on a long tree branch and it slowed me down dramaticly somehow. When I was close to the ground, the bracnh sliped off to get back to it's original position and I only dropped a few inches from the ground. However, I didn't knew any of this happend because I was still screaming with my eyes closed the whole time.
"AHHHHHhhhh. Huh?", I said as I noticed one thing that made grew a big smile and jumped in the air in complete joy, "I'M STILL ALIVE! Come on world, is that all you got! I'M INVINSI-", I never got to finish my sentence because the world still had some tricks in it's sleeves. I was so cocky and overjoyed that I didn't notice the cliff that I was a step away from. I felled down the cliff, hitting every single rock that was sticking out from it. There were a few weird rhings on the way down like a goat, an anvil, a cactus and when I reached the bottom I landed on a fire hydrant; nuts first. I grabbed my balls with both of my hands as I let out a high pitch sound, "ow", I slid off the fire hydrant and felled to the ground, holding my balls in pure agony. After a minute, the pain went away completely which was I found weird. Normally it takes even longer to get over the pain of being hit in the balls. When I think about it, how the fuck did I survive falling down a cliff without breaking a single bone in my body!? I sat down and closed my eyes to think while tapping my index finger on my head. While thinking and calming down, I remembered how I got here in the first place, "That asshole sent me here!", I jumped onto my feet as I yelled. I gripped my right hand into a fist and shook it aggressively, "Oh, when I get my hands on him, I am going to kick him in the balls", I swung my right leg to show my point, "Then we will see how he likes it!"
After calming down from my rage, I was now back at the problem at hand. What do I do now? I sat down and let out a heavy sigh and suddenly, it hit me, "I still got that book.", the moment I said the book, the exact same book appeared on my lap. I was going to question where the hell did the book came from but, he wasn't going to question it. He picked up the book and look at the cover, it still had that same color and words when that guy gave it to me, "Got nothing else to do so, might as well read it.", I open the book to the first page to read but, instead something appeared in front of me. In front of me was a girl with a goofy hat, red hair, blue eyes, an orange dress and had white shoes. Did I also forget to mention that she had wings. I sat there with a very confused face as I tried to process on what the fuck I just saw. We stood there in silence until she broke the it.
"Hi there.",She had the voice of a young girl that is quite happy. I suddenly jumped back in shock as she spoke to me and caused me to fall flat on my back. The girl floated so that she was over my face, "You're not good at talking to girls, are you?", She said while puffing out her cheeks and made two bubbles with her lips. How the hell is my bad talking with girls skill the cause of this!?
"Oh nothing except for the fact that I am TALKING TO A FUCKING FAIRY!?", This called the girl to puff in cheeks in anger. Was it something I said?
"I am not a fairy! I am a pixie and we are so much more cuter than those ugly fairys!", So fairys and pixies hate each others. Good to know, "Any way, do you want to read the tutorial?", She asked me with the same cheerful attitude from before.
"Well, yes. Why else would I open the book that cleary reads tutorial?", I told the pixie and all she did was roll her eyes and snapped her little fingers. Soon, a screen with some writing on it appeared in front of me, "That should answer any question you have. When you finish reading something, just swipe with your finger to read the next page.", she demonstrated by swiping her finger on the screen and it cahnged to a different page. She turned to look at me in the face, "Also, I'm pretty much stuck with you so, I will be sleeping inside your mind for a while. Good bye!", I didn't get to say anything in the matter as she flyed into my head leaved behind some sparkles. I let out another sigh and started to read.
"Hello! Welcome to the tutorial, where we will explain to you the fuction of the world you are in and your new gamer ability", I was curious on what the gamer ability was exactly, "First off, lets explain what the gamer ability is.", It's like the book was reading my mind as well, "The gamer ability is the power that turns your whole life into that of a video game. That means things that normally will kill you will only hurt your hp. We will explain what hp stands for a little later.", That explains how I survived on that cliff, "You start off with two passive skills, the gamer's mind and the gamer's body. The gamer's mind allows you to calm down from pretty much anything, writher you want to or not. This means that you can think clearly while you are in battle and allows you to survive.", I don't really like the way it sounded but, if it helps me survive then I will live with it, "Next is the gamer's body. It makes your whole bosy that of a video game character, things that would hirt or kill you will fade away after sometime or when you recover some hp. Those are the first two passive skills and you will only have these and one extra skill for free. You will have to unlock the skills by yourself", Typically for a game to so that. Gives you a few skills and you need the rest through hard work.
"I can do that", I told myself. I swiped the screen to see the next page.
"Now we will talk about how your stats and levels work. Below this sentence is a list on what each of these thing means.", I looked below the sentence and just like it said, there was a list that explained the stats.
'Level: A measure of overall power; Levels are optained through receiving a set of EXP from quest and killing monsters. Eaxh level adds 60 hp and mp, grants 10 stat points to be spent freely and at every multiple of 5 levels, a point will add an additional point in hp/mp regeneration.'
'Hp: health points. How much damage you can take without dying. Has a base of 100. If you run out of Hp do not worry, as long you have life cures, you can come back to life. WARNING! If your hp reaches 0 and you have no life cures, you will die. No restarts, no reloading and no second chances. You eill get a permanent GAME OVER.'
I gulped at the warning. I decided to be extra careful from now on and have a few life cures. Speaking of life cures, what are they? I saw that the word life cure was green and spending time on the internet you will know that it has a link. I pressed the link and a small screen opended up with a picture. The picture was a small vial with some strange pink liquid in it and it had angel like wings on it.
"I guess they are some sort of revival item.", I shrugged and somehow closed the small screen and continued to read.
'Hp regen: Health point regeneration. You regain 1% of your max hp per minute'
'Mp: Mana points. Measure how much mana, chakra, KI, spitual powers or whatever you possess. It is required to use many abilities.',
So there are different kinds of way to say magic. I wonder what kind I could learn. I put that thought aside and continued to read.
'Mp regn: Mana point regeneration. You regain 1% of your maximum mp per minue, though this can be changed with wisdom.'
'Str. Strength. Determines your physical damage.', Well that was pretty straight forward.
'Int. Determines cognitive abilites, memorization, magical attack and adds 10 mp per point.', So those 5 points in Int added 50 mp to my total. Wait, won't that mean it should be 50 mp? Suddenly, a red screen appeared in front of the screen I was reading.
'ERRROR! There was a small error that caused your stats to be half of what they are meant to be due to the fact you are level 0. This will be fixed when you finish reading the tutorial.', Well that answered my question at least. I continued to read the tutorial.
'Agi. Your speed and flexibility, as well as your overall dexterity with your physical body.'
'Vit. Your overall health and physical toughness. Add 10 hp per point.'
'Wis. Your logic and problem solving abilities. Every 10 points adds 1% to your Mp regen and increases your magic resistance by 1%', Better keep that in mind.
'Luck. Your overall luckiness in life. Affects everything to some degree but, has the most influence in things in which chance has a large role, such as monster drops and such as flipping a coin', That didn't seem to be really useful but, there were a few times where luck had saved my ass while I played video games. I tried to swipe to the next page but, it refused to move. A screen appeared and it reads, 'The rest of the tutorial will appear later on.', ... That's it... THAT WAS THE FUCKING TUTORIAL!. Another screen appeared and had the words note on it.
'Note: Stats can be raised manually in various ways but, this will get harder as they increase. After every 10 points, it becomes harder to grow. By 50, they are almost impossible to grow. Good luck', I think this tutorial is trolling me. I closed the tutorial for now and another screen showed up; I have been getting a lot of this today.
'Quest complete: read the tutorial. Reward: 10 exp, 500 bits and weapon Choice.' I felt a strange feeling in my body, like it was getting stronger and that was because it was. I had gained my first level up!
"I am now level 1!", I heard some crickets chirping. That sounded a lot better in my head. I let out a sigh and sat down. I really want to see my status but- Then a light brown screen appeared with just what I was asking for.
Name: Kaue Dasilva
Class: The gamer
Level:1 next level:100. Progress:0.00%
Hp:100
Mp:100
Str:10
Int:10
Agi:10
Vit:10
Wis:10
Stat points:10
"So I still have some stat points to spend, huh?", I would be worried and freaked out if I didn't have the gamer's mind skill. I began to think what I should invest in but, I was interupted by ding sound. I looked at the soure of the sound and found out it was a nother screen.
'By surving from a fall by pure luck, you unlocked a skill: Lucky!', A light red screen appeared next to the blue screen.
'lucky! Passive. Level:max. The lady of luck had decided to shine her light on you. You are now more lucky than you have ever been.
Effect: luck+5 permanently.', So I unlock my skills through my action? That is an interesting way to learn skills. Soon I learned a nother skill.
'Observe. Active/Passive. Level:1. Next level:0.00%. Grants information at a glance to a target. If target is at a hight level than you, most of the infomation will not be shown. If the target is 50 levels higher than your level plus observe, than no information will be given. Level up observe to see more detailed information in both active and passive uses.', Now that is a useful skill! I planned to grind that skill up after I deposit my points. Before I could do any of those things. The pixie from before came out of my head and had a brown bag with her.
"So you finally finished reading the tutorial.", She put on a happy smile, "Well, now I am going to give you your first weapon.", She waved the bag around a little. I reached to grab the bag but, the pixie pulled it away, "But first, I need to know what weapon you want.", she put her hand into the bag, "Do you want a sword, a bat, a bow, a pair of gloves, a gun, a staff, an axe or a dual daggers?", She pulled out each weapon to me and put them away. The first was a wooden sword, second was a wooden bat, third was a pair of leather gloves, fourth was a pistol, fifth was a wooden stick curved at the top' sixth was an woodman's axe and finally she pulled out two daggers that look a little dull. I pondered on this for a moment then I decided to go with my favorite weapon.
"I choose the sword!", I put my hand out to the pixie. All the pixie did to react to this was an eye roll and pulled out the wooden sword. I grabbed it to get a handle on it and then I learned another skill.
'Sword Mastery. Passive. Level:1. Next level:0.00%. You had now learn the ways of thw sword. This skill will increase your efficiency with swords. Effect: plus 10% attack damage from sword based weapons and skills.', This was awesome! But I realized something important.
"Where am I going to hide this?", I asked. I knew I couldn't just walk a round with a sword in my hand all the time. The pixie decided to answer my question.
"You know, if you think about inventory than you can store everything in there.", I decided to take her advise and thought about getting an inventory. Soon, a light brown colored screen appeared but, this time with tons of small squares. Another screen appeared as well. It seems to be the tutorial.
'What you see before you is a pocket dimesion with infinite space or you can just call it inventory if you want. Basically, you can store all of your stuff in here and you can take it out at anytime.', With that, the blue screen disappeared. I looked to see what I had. I seem to have 5 apples, 5 water bottles, 5 life cures and the 500 bits from the quest. I tried to push my sword on the screen and surprisingly, it workd. My sword is now in my inventory.
"Welp, I am going to go back into your head to sleep. Goodbye!," She floated back a little and stopped, "In case you were wondering, my name is lilly.", After she said that she charged at my forehead. That reminds me, I never told you what I looked like. I had brown hair, slightly pale skin, blue and green eyes. I wore a grey sweater with a hoodie and underneath it was a blue short sleeved shirt, pair of blue pants that I can easily move around in and diesil shoes. Now only one question remained.
"What am I going to do now?", In response, I got a new quest.
'Quest detected: Get out of the forest. Description: Try to find a way out of the forest you are in. Success: 100 exp, 100 bits. Failure: forever lost in the woods.', I looked around at my surrounding and discovered that I was already lost.
"Oh fuck me."
