[First 'Dungeon' 1]

His mind slowly awakening, Ookurikara released a groan of pain. "Ugh... what happened? " He clutched his head while trying to get up, but the strong sense of vertigo confused his sense of balance and he immediately fell on his side.

He felt too sick to feel the pain from such an impact, but the vertigo slowly lessened into nothingness as a cool sensation descended onto his mind

His mind rid of the vertigo, he was able to properly remember his last moments. "That light! " Deus brain fully kicked into gear, and he stood up in shock. He clenched his fist, and looked around at his surroundings, 'Is this.....all..real? '. Ookurikara tested out his question by slapping himself, it wouldn't heart at all, it was ju-

"Ow! " Deus was proven wrong by the pain that had erupted from hitting himself, but he was more amazed than in pain.

'This...is...all...real..' His mind slowly processed the information and when it finished, Ookurikara jumped up in excitement.

[I Welcome you to Remnant, Remember: This Is Not a Game]

'Remnant..... wait, how am I keeping such calm? ' Deus remembered the effects of gamer's mind, and felt excited that it worked and how he was now in another world!

'If this really is remnant, then that means that there are many powerful beings within the shadow, and they can probably take me out instantly so... I need to gain sufficient strength before conflicting myself against them' Deus thought about the problem at hand while looking at the shop's interior, and it was basically empty.

The shop had empty displays on the wall, glass casings, five ceiling lights, a counter for the cashier, one of those chairs made mobile with wheels, and a backdoor.

Deus walked over to the single door, and opened the door by twisting the knob. Through the door was a massive empty room obviously meant for storage, with large metal bins meant to hold things, and another door at the right side of the room.

Going over and opening it open, it revealed stairs leading down into the depths of darkness, and he solved it by flipping the switch beside him.

Closing the door behind him, he went down the steps taking thirty seconds to reach the bottom, and found a hallway leading to another door. He opened the door, and was stunned by what the room beyond contained.

On the left side of the room was a smithing forge, a large sharpening stone, a refinery, a large water bucket made out of metal, and a bracket of different types hammers.

On the opposite side, was a large table with tools like nails, small hammers, chisels, and other various small tools. The back of the room had a very excellent looking water dispenser, and...that was everything it had.

Ookurikara was bothered by the arrangement of the room and he wasn't even OCD! 'This place definitely needs a rearrangement, the first thing to go is the water dispenser. ' The water dispenser needed to leave the room, simply because he didn't think it fit inside the room.

Over to the water dispenser, he gripped the edges of the machine, slowly pulling it out of the room and up the stairs. Ookurikara's arms and hands hurt while he pulling the water dispenser up, but he continued all the way into the shop and shifted the water dispenser into the corner near the counter.

Huff* Huff*

Deus leaned on the dispenser while trying to regain his breathing. 'System, why am I weaker then normal? Didn't I set my strength and endurance stat higher than the normal people? ' Ookurikara was confused because he thought his strength was 1.5 times stronger than the normal male adult.

[The Perk (Unseen Might) Is Active]

"Oh, deactivate it then. " Ookurikara felt strength and vigor fill his entire being, and all the fatigue lessen to near unnoticeable degree. He was stunned at the feeling of power flooding his system, but managed to get it back together and headed back down.

Inside the basement under the shop, he moved the table with the equipment to the back along with the crafting bench, and then moved all the smithing equipment into a better arrangement.

[Strength has Increased by 2 for Heavy Lifting] [Agility has increased by 1 for Walking with Weights][Constitution increased by 1 for Endurance]

'So stats increase without having to use stat points? Neat. ' Ookurikara stared upon his work, and felt satisfaction.

[Do You Wish to Buy Items?]

'I can buy items? ' He hadn't known that he could've just bought his things, he had thought he would've had to find and make his own.

[To But Items, Go To Shop]

Ookurikara opened the system panel and found a little shop icon at the bottom right, and pressed it. The panel disappeared and was replaced with a list of items, and he scolled through the list.

'All of these seem to cost magic stones, or Mstones as it's called. ' Searching through list, he found some items that had caught his interest and he bought them.

The first thing he bought was an alchemical table for 50 Mstones, then an iron leafed sapling for 100 Mstones, and finally two large storage chests for 160 Mstones. After receiving the items, he placed the alchemical table on the unoccupied right side of the room, along with the iron leafed sapling to the corner, and put the two large chests beside the door.

"I think I'm done. " Ookurikara dusted off the filth on his gloves, and thought about how he was gonna gain materials.

'System, does the instant dungeons I create allow me to harvest materials? Or, do only the mobs give me materials? ' He just wanted to clarify if the solution was feasible, or not.

[Isn't It Better To Discover It By Your Own?]

Hearing the response he received from the system, Ookurikara sighed and muttered.

"I.D Create. " The world shattered into particles to reveal large a grassy biome, and...a slime? He didn't believe that only slimes lived in this biome, and looked around.

He saw giant frogs jumping near large ponds, fish large enough to be considered sharks surfaced from said ponds, deer were frolicking across the grass, wolves ran amuck wildly, and he could hear howls and roars from the forest nearby.

'This definitely isn't a dungeon. ' He stated with astonishment.

[ Congratulations! You learn that I.D Create Was Actually Pocket Dimension Creation!]

'Wait, what? ' Ookurikara was confused on how I.D Create was actually Pocket Dimension Creation.

[I.D Equals Instant Dimension! ]

Ookurikara palmed his metallic mask, and decided to not even try to argue with the system. 'How does the gathering of materials work exactly? Do I just chop a tree down and collects the wood? '

[You can Collect Natural Resources in This World, but you can also slay Monsters/Animals for Experience and Loot]

Ookurikara already knew that he could kill monsters for gains, but nodded his head anyways. 'If my understanding is correct, slimes should be the easiest monsters to kill. ' Ookurikara unsheathed his swords from his belt, and hit a nearby slime....only to deal almost no damage. His eyes widened as the slime jumped toward him, he quickly twisted his body slicing the slime in half while dodging the attack.

Ookurikara stared at the two halves, than began to hack and slash after seeing the bodies wriggle. Feeling tired after his barrage of attacks, Ookurikara stopped and looked back at the puddle of slime.

...

.....

Than he released a breath of relief as the puddle of slime began to dissolve to light, leaving a flask of slime, some magic stones, and some sort of..metal?

[Gained 1experience point]

'Seeing as how difficult it was to kill one measly slime, did the almighty/god put me on some sort of hard mode?! ' He was mad at the fact that a single slime had made him spend so much time, and effort just to kill it!

[No, Slimes are just difficult to slay with physical abilities, you'll need something like magic]

Ookurikara thought for a bit, and knew exactly how to kill slimes.
