Chapter 4: Getting Basic Information

Chapter 4: Getting Basic Information

As Stark called out for his status window, a semi-transparent display appeared in front of him, showing his information.

This was something that every single person in this world had: a status window to check their skills and such.

Seeing the panel, Stark sighed in relief, at least it meant he wasn't THAT weak (or at least he thought).

And so, he began reading.

[Name:] Stark Heartsouls

'They didn't have the inspiration to pick a better surname, did they...'

[Level:] 1

[Health:] 10/10

'...'

[Bloodline:] Human

[Class:] Classless

[Talent:] Chosen one

'Huh...' Stark guessed that he had indeed been chosen by Rher, so not that surprising.

[Attributes:] Strength 3; Speed 2; Mind/Soul 14; Stamina 4; Defense 3

[Skills:] Spatial Inventory; Class Wheel (locked)

'I guess that's all...' he sighed, none of this was exceptional except for maybe the locked skill, but he would need to unlock it somehow...

[Commentary from Rher:] Hurrendous stats, might have made a mistake in summoning you...

'Appreciate the feedback my guy.'

...

[Skill: Spatial Inventory]

[Type:] Passive Skill

[Level:] Cannot be upgraded since it is not combat related.

[Description:] This skill is always active, and allows the user whenever he wants to put or take out objects inside of an inventory space only accessible to him (and no, you can't go inside yourself).

...

[Class Wheel]

[Type:] Chosen One (locked)

He pushed them open and was met with rows upon rows of towering bookshelves, each filled to the brim with ancient tomes and modern textbooks.

Stark wandered through the aisles, his fingers trailing along the spines of the books as he scanned the titles, and after a few minutes, he picked out three different ones.

"Classes for beginners"

"Basic information about combat"

"Important events of the world"

'I hope they give me the needed information...' he sat on one of the available tables with the three books.

But as he was ready to sit down, he turned his head to the left, noticing he wasn't the only one in the library.

"..." A blonde-haired girl was staring at him with a confused expression on her face, almost as if she couldn't believe that he was here.

"What?" before beginning his long lecture, he asked this question as he didn't appreciate that gaze on him.

Taken aback, the girl immediately went back to reading the book between her hands, "Hmft~ Nothing, don't get cocky!"

'What the fuck is wrong with people in this world,' he sighed before opening the first page of a book.

***

(A few hours later)

As the sun began to set, casting a warm golden glow over the landscape, Stark stretched his hands backwards, releasing a content sigh.

The third and final book was finished, and with it came a newfound understanding of his surroundings.

"Ah~ I guess it's a bit more clear now... huh..."

He now understood what was happening around him, and how all of this came to be, but it would have honestly been better if Rher just told him beforehand.

Basically...

The world he was in was named 'Rheria', with the country named Fellarburg being his current location.

In this world, every human possessed a unique power or ability known as a "class". It was these classes that set them apart from one another.

But Rheria was not without its dangers. Most of the outside world was infested with monsters, forcing the population to seek safety within the 28 countries scattered throughout the land.

These countries were immense in size, providing ample space for their inhabitants.

The reason for the sudden appearance of powers is unknown, but apparently it had always been like this since the beginning, no asteroids hitting the heart or sudden apparition of rifts/towers to other worlds...

This was just basic information.

But the things that interested Stark the most were...

The many classes that were present in this world.
