3 System

"A system? I gotta be honest, I've never heard of that. Like a gaming one? NES or something?" Nick tilted his head in confusion, momentarily forgetting his confusion. Then he understood. 'Wait. That kind of system?!'

"Took you long enough. Can't believe my host has an IQ of a bird. Now open up your stats. We have no time to waste." Nick sighed, how could he know he would get a sassy system?

'System open!'

'This is... This is the best day of my life!' Nick pretty much ignored the menu and everything it meant. He had something no one else had. A super powerful system that could do anything.

Who needed a job if they had a system?! He would still have to get a job because his mom wanted him to get one, but still. He was set for life. Hopefully. Probally. Maybe.

"Thank you for the compliments, but you have me for a reason. This is your job, and if you want perks from it you will have to work. Now open you stats and skills. Hurry, I'm not spending all day explaining this to you.." This system just would not stop messing with him! 'This is my job? Doesn't seem like one...'

Nick didnt know how to feel. This is not what he was expecting, leadership? Knowledge? What kind of stats are those? Plus only three skills?! He expected to have many more from his fifteen years of life.

"That is only showing you what you need to see, not skills that have nothing to do with being Santa. Same thing with titles. Here, I'll tell you a few of your skills. Surprisingly you have a few maxed out" His system is the being nice, too nice.

"Like Procrastination, Laziness, or.... Cooking. You are a strange one. For titles, oooh this is gonna be good, Virgi-" Come one

, he was only 15 years old!

"Hey! That's enough, thanks." Nick's face turned beet red. 'Stupid system. Exposing me. Why did I have to get a rude one?' Then his face went white, as he has just realized his system reads his mind.

"Rude? Stupid? Oh I am gonna a- you know what? We have no time for this. I'll get you back when you least expect it. Now onto today's work newbie. You're gonna be making toys little kids all day long." The female systems voice had a chill to it, and Nick shivered. This would be fun. For her.

The system guided Nick to the big desk and instructed him to take a blueprint out of his inventory.

[Inventory] 5/30

Nick selected the wooden horse blueprint and it materialized in front of him. 'Whoa. That's crazy.' This is when Nick knew this was real, it had to be. Well, that or he was locked up a mental hospital but who would want to believe they were in that situation.

The blueprint had a outline of a small wooden horse. Nick saw its measurements and what was needed to build it. 'Where is the wood?'

"Open the drawer." Short but effective, the sentence started what he would be doing the rest of the day.

Nick pulled open the drawer and a long piece of wood popped out. How it fit in there, probably magic, but Nick disregarded it as another wonder of this place. Next the tools, a simple wooden hammer would do. He grabbed his wood and began to work.

Five minutes later, he had two new notifications.

Stamina- 9/10 Regeneration- 1 for ten minutes

This was gonna take a bit.
