Awakening: System

I was looking at the "game window" in front of me. I am not a gaming expert and the literary genre of "MMORPG", but it did not prevent me from finding my solace in books and games. So I knew right away what it was.

Game system.

I didn't have a question about where it came from. Did I not drink that a hell of a potion!? The chances that it was your average healing elixir is actually negligible – certainly not for SSS-rank, which logically should not have existed at all. Then why did I survive!?... I guess it is due to this skill in the status window – my only skill "player body". Judging by what usually happens in books, this skill is very possible able to do be the reason.

However, I don't have any MP and HP, which makes it impossible to think about restoring limbs just from the regeneration of these points.

"What's next..." - I thought for a moment. – "show me unread logs?" - I asked rather than gave the command. - "Oh, to hell with it, there's something wrong!" - I almost threw the vase against the wall in my excitement. – "Well, I couldn't possible call it correctly out on my very first attempt!"

I thought about everything for a bit. The hope of an easy and good live that had appeared due to the system was extinguished immediately, as soon as I looked at the characteristics. I do not know how much it is, 1000 points of luck…in the minus, but it is clearly impressive compared to my other characteristics. Only here, what is it next? So, I can have the lick go up to 5,000? Too unclear…

"Breathe deep and fast, Victor. You're not going to have a heart attack from joy."

I closed my eyes and began to think.

On one hand, such a bargain I got, but on the other - the living example of the last dungeon that I cleared shows what happens when everything starts to go well for me. That's who I am, and now even the "chance" to write off everything to a coincidence will not work – the Status itself says that I am a "Loser".

Speaking of which.

"We should think everything through first."

I was smiling. Even if it's a dream I am having right now, I'm still grateful for it. It's been a long time since my heartbeat was this fast.

"Negligence is unacceptable, it will be better to check and recheck everything a few times over."

I decided to first go through the logs, and see what is written there, and first of all…

"Store"

This time I didn't jump up due to the game window that appeared in front of me.

There was no pile of everything and anything. No, instead, the "store" had a lot of icons and subsections. The first thing I was interested in was the currency. Fortunately, there were no coins or souls. Everything is very simple – Russian Rubles. Even currency exchange was built in.

That's quite a bonus, but the second question is – the exchange cost for staff. Food is the king, so I didn't look into the weapons section or anywhere else. with my mind focused on "food" and then on "ingredients," a list of all sorts of foods appeared in front of me. In the midst of all this, I needed "water". Fortunately, water was sold in the store and you could even choose the size of the container. A half-liter bottle cost twenty-five rubles.

"Shame on you, the ruling gentlemen. The water that is created from the system who knows how is cheaper than it is sold in your country. Well it is just a beggar's remark, but still I think it is important to state that they don't give a f*ck about their citizens».

Following the cost, I decided to go to the "sell" section, which, fortunately for me, was also available. And it almost made me fall on the spot, and I clenched my jaw so hard that if my teeth had been any more brittle, they would have cracked.

"Calm down!!!" - I sat there for a few seconds, closing my eyes and breathing deeply, until I finally got all the stupid thoughts out of my head.

What brought me to this state is my sister standing first on the list of "for sale". I mean, I can sell it, too. I don't know why, but the fact that it was perceived as a commodity that could be sold made me very angry. There was a saying of a known character, where he said that you can't buy a friend, but you can sell him. It seems the system took it to the next level.

Ignoring the first line, I went on. Everything was sorted by selling price. There was my house on top, and junk on the bottom. And, again, something is definitely wrong with this – everything that belongs to my sister, from clothes to cosmetics, was also on the list. The prices were better than I could have imagined? Definitively higher than their original price.

I continued working with the system, but I closed the store. I already understood what I wanted to understand, and if I go deeper, I'm sure I won't finish it all day. Or even a month – the list of items was quite large.

The second was inventory, which I also called up with a voice command. As expected, the inventory also appeared, completely empty, consisting of twelve rows of six slots each.

"Not bad," - I nodded while being pleased with the inventory storage capacity - "I'm not sure if there are slot restrictions, but there are definitely seventy-two slots, which is much better than it could be.»

Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to fill out my inventory to check if new slots would appear. But I don't think it will be difficult to check it out during the dungeon raids.

I decided to check something else. Next to me were some oranges – I don't know if my sister brought it for me, or Gavril. I wanted to put it in the inventory. Unfortunately, it was not possible to do this without touching it. But even so, i was satisfied – putting everything into the inventory in one package showed up as a "package of tangerines" taking one slot, and then putting several oranges separately again took only one slot. I made sure that same objects add up. There is still a question of whether they do it indefinitely or on in the hundredth/thousandth take the second slot.

I did not waste any more time on inventory. There are still a lot of things I need to learn in this system. Yes, and I want to eat oranges. I think I've not eaten for more than two days.

"Okay, we'll deal with the stats later. As well as levels. As well as ... I will have to deal with all of the status functions." - I took a deep breath. – "Too much work for a lazy guy like me. What about the logs?"

I continued to read what was written. Everything seemed to be clear:

Some titles and their descriptions were a little confusing, but they seemed to be very useful. For example, "Loner" looks very impressive.

There are of course useless titles. The same "Miracle Worker" that increases the chance of successfully completing the impossible by 0.5 percent. With my luck, even with 99 percent of success probability I couldn't do any miracles. Not talking about 0.5 percent. But now I can safely say that nothing is impossible for me – no matter what, there will always be a half percent chance of success.

I was also called a madman. It's a shame, but I don't think so, I am not madmen. Unfortunately, you can't argue with the system. And the skill "Player's Mind" was blocked. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. On the one hand, judging by the description of the skill, it would only protect my emotions. But I love my emotionality… In short, I don't know.

The "Player's Body" skill was also interesting. According to the description, this is not my real body, but has the real body been already destroyed? Or is there something I don't understand? Damn, this skill only confused me.

When I finished reading the logs, I closed my eyes, leaned back on the bed, and began to think.

There was a lot Going on in my head. For example, the hope that I will finally be able to change everything about myself. I even doubted for instance that I had gone crazy. There was also the possibility that this was all a joke of the fate and, for example, in a month the system would disappear.

But what's the point of thinking about all of this? Even if my fears come true, it just means that nothing will change. And in my case, this is by no means the worst that can happen.

"How long was I in the hospital?" - Damn, I should have remembered. I took a deep breath. — "In any case, I still have five days to go to the next dungeon.

For the first time in five years, I wanted to go for a dungeon raid. But I'm not sure whether to do it right away, or wait for a little.
