(Adam) "Is some one playing games with me? Why am I back in this place. He told me that." My thinking is cut off by a blue box popping up in front of me.

Body creation commencing
Blue screen after blue screen flys by almost faster than I can read them. Leaving me no time to process what I am learning. When suddenly I feel a strange pulling sensation along with another blue box.

Seeing the blue box ask for my input for the first time I try to think about what to do. After a moment of thinking, I reply with a yes. The tugging feeling starts to grow stronger at this point. Bracing myself for what is to come to more boxes flash by and the feeling vanishes.

Body integration complete
After that, I am again left alone in the dark.
Waiting in the dark for something to happen I start to think about recent events. Things like the fact that I am no longer human. The fact that I now see magical blue boxes. The fact that I made a deal with something that is clearly evil. Not to mention the fact that I died and the person who killed me was reincarnated as a hero while I'm stuck as a dungeon.
After letting off some steam I start trying to think about things rationally when I suddenly have an idea. If this system is like a game then shouldn't I be able to open the stats I just got? I interacted by talking early. So maybe .... Well. No harm in trying.

(Adam) "open... Open? .... OPEN! ...." "Why won't it open!? Wait. Calm down. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. But I wasn't given any instructions on how to do it. What will I do if I can't figure it out? No. Stop thinking like that. I got it. I'm probably just saying the wrong word. Maybe...." "stats!"

(Adam) "yes."
You need more MP
Not knowing what to do I just wait there looking at the abilities. Noticing some very useful ones I start to look at them slower. Making sure I understand them all.
After a while of waiting. I fell energy gathering in me. Having already planned out what I'm going to get I start to speak.
(Adam) "Dungeon sense."

As soon as I bought this skill I could see a rocky chamber with a crystal in the middle. Looking at the crystal I could tell this was my body. It felt strange to look at myself but I quickly got used to it.
(Adam) "Well, I guess I should just wait for more Mp to unlock rooms with. Then I should start getting traps and monsters to defend me. After that, I need to... What do I do after that? I .... Well, I guess I will just find out then. For now, I just wait to gain more MP."

(Author notes)Sorry that this chapter was so short. The rest of them will be much longer. This one was mostly made for me to get used to using the charts and to ask for people's opinions on them.

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!
