7 Make him shorter…

"Yep, as you can see, the system takes everything that is in the world and stores it inside the system store, making it easily attainable if you have the wealth to buy it." Rose snapped her finger and a pile of bronze colored coins surrounded them. "You buy them through system made bronze coins."

Arthur scanned through the items and nodded his head, then thought of something and raised his head. "You said that it takes the items from the world and puts copies in the system store? What if I travel to multiple worlds? Will it continue to add more items to it?"

"Yes, and this is what's so broken about your wish." Rose giggled and continued with a smile. "If other people wanted something from a different world, they would have to visit the player store section and pay a massive amount of bronze coins to get something. But all you have to do is travel to that world and the System will automatically sell it to you for a cheaper price."

'Other people…' Arthur sat forward with a frown and stared at Rose. "You mean that other people have systems as well?"

"Yes." Rose looked at Arthur like he was an idiot and explained. "Although rare, there are thousands of people with Fantasy Systems across the millions of universes. Plus, don't forget, you already have two Fantasy Gems on you."

Realizing that he made a mistake, Arthur scratched the back of his head. "Oh yeah. I forgot."

Sophia rolled her eyes at Arthur with a grin, then pointed at all the bronze coin around them and asked Rose. "How do you get bronze coins?"

"That's what I was just about to explain." Rose smiled and snapped her finger, making the bronze coins disappear. "Every Fantasy System comes with missions and tasks that you can complete earning bronze coins and Fantasy Points. The tasks can be anything from making dinner to kill something. But the missions are always determined based on your wish." Rose leaned back into her chair again. "Since you got a system based on world travel, you will probably get missions based on that."

"I see." Arthur nodded and continued to look around in the system.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Rose playfully used her hand to knock on her head. "Tasks can be ignored, but missions will have a consequence if you cannot complete them, and the more missions you cannot complete, the worse the consequences become."

Sophia glanced at Arthur, then asked Rose. "What's the use of Fantasy Points?"

"Fantasy Points are used to upgrade the unique function and can only be earned if you complete a mission." Rose smiled and winked. "Please open the Realm Chart page."

Arthur did as he was asked and opened [Realm Chart (Level 1)], making the screen turn into a star chart with only one minor star at the bottom left.

"Each Fantasy System can hold up to three unique functions. Because of your wish, you were given the unique function [Realm Chart]." Rose snapped her finger, replacing the cabin with a star field. "Each star represents a Realm that you've been to, allowing you to return to them when you want to." Rose snapped her finger again, causing the half of the stars to turn red. "The red stars are realms you haven't traveled to yet." Rose snapped her finger again, returning the cabin. "Each unique function has restrictions, your restriction forces you to wait a month after every realm travel. Upgrading your unique function can lower or even remove restrictions while also increase the functions of your unique function."

Rose looked between Arthur and Sophia with a smile. "Questions?"

"Yeah, I have a couple." Arthur closed the System Menu and stared into Rose's eyes. "Who are you? You never truly explained anything about yourself."

"I'm a spirit born in the Fantasy Gem, made to help you understand and give you advice." Rose leaned back into her large chair with a smile.

Arthur didn't speak for a second, creating an awkward silence until he spoke with a plain tone. "Your lying."

Sophia fell into thought, then smiled and waited for Arthur to explain his thoughts to see if he thought the same.

Being called a liar, the smile on Rose's face faded as she stared at Arthur with a cold light in her eyes.

Arthur was the first to break eye contact, as he also leaned back into his chair and spoke his thoughts out loud. "Before I woke up you asked Sophia all about me, meaning that you couldn't read my memories and understand for yourself, right?" Arthur casually glanced at Rose and continued. "This entire time while your explaining the system, you have been enjoying taco's. I don't think while Sophia was concerned about my wellbeing, she would just randomly explain what a taco is to a spirit that hasn't left The Fantasy Gem before."

"Very perceptive." Rose slowly clapped with a smile. "Although Sophia said you were smart, I guess I still underestimated you."

"Now lets try this again." Arthur shook his head with a smile and hooked his arm around Sophia's waist. "My name is Arthur, and this is my girlfriend Sophia."

"Whatever." Rose shrugged her shoulders then introduced herself with a smile. "My name is Rose. Just like you, I was once an owner of a Fantasy System."

Arthur and Sophia looked at the almost transparent Rose. "Then…"

Rose understood what Arthur meant and asked for him. "How did I become a spirit and enter your Fantasy Gem?"

Arthur and Sophia looked at each other and nodded.

"Because I died in the hands of another System owner." A cold light flashed in Rose's eyes and explained. "After a Fantasy System owner dies in the hands of another, the System will ask if you want to become a System Spirit, granting you a chance to earn another body and live again."

Arthur thought for a second and asked. "How do you earn a new body?"

Rose leaned to the side and rested her head against the chair cushion and explained. "Every time you complete a mission Ill be given points, after I get 10,000 points I can build another body and leave this space."

Arthur thought for a while, then suddenly stood up and walked in front of Rose. Rose looked at Arthur curiously, wondering what he was planning on doing. Arthur stared at Rose for a second, then smiled and offered a hand. "Since we have common goals, were partners from today."

Rose hesitated for a second, then stretched her hand out and shook hands with Arthur.

Sophia stood up and took Rose's arm with a smile. "From today on-wards, we're friends."

"Yeah!" Since meeting her, Rose finally smiled genuinely for the first time, showing her genuine beauty.

Sophia sat beside Rose and talked about their home world, then asked. "Oh yeah. Can we return to our home world?"

Rose shook her head and sighed apologetically. "When the life saving card was used, the System didn't have time to save the coordinates of your home world."

Hearing this news hit Sophia hard. She turned pale and asked. "So I can't see my parents again?"

Arthur sighed sadly realizing that he won't see his Aunt or Uncle again and put his hand on Sophia's shoulder trying to give her a little relief.

"But its not impossible to return." Rose broke the silence. "If you find the right realm, its possible to return."

"That's right." Arthur and Sophia looked at each other in excitement. "All we have to do is continue traveling to new worlds until we can find our homeworld."

'There are trillions of realms out there. Finding one is almost impossible.' Rose smiled but didn't want to break their hope.

Arthur thought about it and asked. "What do we do about not having a body?"

"This is the best part of your life saving card." Rose snapped her finger and a screen appeared in front of both Arthur and Sophia with naked versions of themselves on it. "After leaving your bodies behind, the System will create a new one based on your wishes."

"Oh?" Sophia looked at the naked version of herself on the screen. "How do I alter it?"

"With your thoughts." Rose explained. "Just imagine the body you want."

Sophia closed her eyes and imagined a better looking version of herself, then opened her eyes. The Sophia on the screen changed into what she imagined, causing her to scream with joy and clicked the finished button.

"What did you change?" Arthur looked at Sophia in confusion. "Don't change too much. You look beautiful already."

"You will see when we leave this place." Sophia smiled happily, then thinking of something she asked Rose. "Can I create Arthur's body for him?"

"I can't let you create it." Rose closed her eyes and communicated with the System, then opened her eyes. "But if you tell me what you want, I can create an image here and all he has to do is input it into the system."

"Great idea!" Sophia laughed happily and whispered into Rose's ear.

Arthur looked at the talkative Sophia and Rose as he shivered at the thought of what they were saying.

"Alright. Is that all?" Rose looked up and down Arthur for a second with a smirk.

Sophia thought for a second, then remembered that she forgot something and whispered a little louder than she wanted, but finished it in a soft voice. "Make him shorter…"

'shorter?…' Arthur looked down and turned pale, but then remembered that he had the ultimate decision-making ability for his body and relaxed.

Sophia studied Arthur one last time, then nodded to Rose. "That's all."

"Well, lets see how it looks." Rose snapped her finger and cardboard cutout of a person appeared next to them. The person on the cardboard cutout looked like a more handsome and shorter version of Arthur.

"Handsome, right?" Sophia gawked at the cardboard cutout and asked.

"Yeah, you did a good job." Arthur looked at the cutout of him and thought. 'Thankfully she meant my height.'
