Virtual Assistant System

John put aside the windows and recalled the systems that were generated. "With a system, I will be able to become strong quickly," he thought as he called out the system in his mind.

After a while of silence, a shy voice came from the depths of the illusionary world—the voice of a child.

"Hello, I am your System Assistant, and I will assist you with all my power, sir!"

John froze hearing a child's voice and had a bad feeling all of a sudden. He wanted to make sure he understood the "assist" part.

"You mean assist, as in I complete tasks you give me-"

"No, I am new, so I can't give tasks and rewards."

John was cut short by the system before continuing meekly.

"But I can assist by creating virtual tools like these you have here as well as connecting to the System hub and looking for tasks we can complete for system points."

John remained silent as the system finished. After a few seconds of silence, John asks, "System hub, as in a gathering place of systems? And what system points? What tasks?" John was confused, as he didn't expect that system hub to even exist.

"Yes, it's a social network for systems; we are sentient after all. As for system points, it's our currency we use to trade with. And tasks are challenges other systems give to newbies like us; all newbie systems and first hosts are in it together, and with those points we can learn new things."

"What about buying things?" John asks curiously, finding it odd that the system only mentions learning things and not buying them.

"I am new and do not have permission to trade physical goods."

Sighing, John knew that it was going to be a hard life; he was a slacker, and now he cannot afford to slack.

"What's your name?"

"I am your Virtual Assistant System, VAS", replied the system after a short silence.
