2 Fanfic Station

"Now Cole, let me explain how this space works." Said Minerva.

"This space is not only a way for you go to other universes, it will act as your 'home base'."

Cole looks in a confused way at Minerva. She notices this and begins to explain further.

"This place is where you will live, recuperate, and resupply between universes."

Cole shows an understanding loom and says, "Ok I get it, but how and what do you mean by resupply?"

Minerva then waves her hand and a large screen appears just in front of them.

"This is how. From here you will utilize your points that you earn from completing quest and other objectives, such as defeating enemies, to purchase various items, skills, and abilities. There other purchases you can make but I believe you would like to see them for yourself."

"That's awesome. Anyways, I have a question. Can I change the look of this space? Living in this white space is going to make me go insane."

"Of course you can. This is your new home. Just go to the terminal and choose 'Base Settings'. Some options are premium so you will need points to change it."

"That's great. So when do I start?"

"Anytime you want. But before you do I have to gifts for you. First is a ring. It will show you your current Stats, Quest, and Inventory. Just think of the option an it'll appear. No shop options, like those systems in novels have. You must be here to buy anything. And second is a starter box."

"That is more than I expected. Thank you Minerva."

"No problem. Now before I leave you, do you have any questions?"

"Yes, can I repeat certain universes? Like say a trilogy, or maybe a universe that came from only one movie?"

"Haha, Thanks for reminding me. There are different difficulty tiers to each universe. They are normal, hard, hell, demi-God, and God tier. But be warned, while you can repeat any tier multiple times, each time will offer less and less points while increasing the difficulty bit by bit."

"That's good to know. I have one more question. Can I contact later if I have more questions?"

"Yes, in the terminal. Since this is like a game there is an option the says 'Contact GM' in the top right corner."

"Okay. Well I can't think of anything else to ask."

"Just contact me like I pointed out when you do. Well I leave you to you. Good luck Cole."

"Thank you again for this opportunity Minerva."

Minerva give Cole a sweet smile before she fades into nothing leaving Cole by himself in the white space. After a while of watching the space where Minerva disappeared, Cole take in a deep breathe and makes his way over to the terminal.

"Now what should I do first? Oh, that's right, the starter box!"

Cole calls out in his mind, "Inventory!".

[Opening inventory]

A transparent window pops up in front of him showing a inventory like those in RPGs. In the first space is what looks to be a wooden box.

"Oh there are notifications? Now I wonder if I can take out items without opening the inventory?"

Cole wills the inventory window close and it does. Now he tries to will the wooden box out from the inventory and surprisingly it came out easily.

"Well this feature with help out in any combat situations. Now let's see what goodies are in here."

Cole opens the lid and it disappears while a ringing of notifications sounded off.
