"Don't be afraid."

Uncle Edgar softly said as he made me drink a bitter pill. As soon as I swallowed the pill, I felt sick.

"It'll all get better soon. You know this is all for your own good." I stared at him. He is a man in his 20's, someone from the lower class who was lucky enough to get a job. Just like any other worker, he looked fatigued and malnourished.

I wanted to say something, but I quickly swallowed my words. "Sleep well." He placed a blanket over me before turning off the lights.

'...' I stared at the ceiling in silence. I feel weird. I don't feel.. normal. I don't know how to say it, but theres this weird feeling in my stomach.

'I suppose.. It's because I'm not used to these kind gestures.'

My eyelids feel heavy, I drift asleep.

"Milady, beta-test 706 worked like a charm."

"Oh goody, that's such a relief." A woman in a lab-coat, with long silky blonde hair that flowed to her waist spoke. "Well, prep the unit, I made something that will blow their minds, literally."

"Understood, milady." The metal door slowly closed, making a sound that echoed throughout the silent labratory.

I wake up to the suns rays shining on me. As usual I stand up and stretch, you've got to do your daily stretches you know.

My nose smells the scent of grease and dust, and myself. Yep, my hygiene is like.. nonexistent. I've grown used to that, but honestly, i'll never get used to the feeling of being so filthy.

There's a whole community in the alleys. Although I keep up with the latest news I don't really like to interact with people that much, I don't even remember the last time I talked to a person.

I walk towards the pool of dirty water that was formed through days of the pipe dripping droplets of liquid which I identified to be water, I think.

I stare at the pool of unclean water and look at my reflection. Light blue eyes and blue hair, this is the first time i've seen my face. I understand the blue eyes but blue hair??

Is that even possible? well, I've seen other people in this world rocking green hair and pink hair.. But still, were they born with it or something?

Well, whatever it's another world, what'd I expect.

I then remember a few things that I wanted to do yesterday but was too sleepy to do so. I immediately thought of the system and the panel appeared before me.

'System store.'

Now, there are icons on the panel which I can press to go to certain menus but i'm way too lazy to do that and I don't want people to see me tapping on air.

At first I wanted to buy a weapon but I can make a better weapon if this mechanic kit is really good. My dream when I was a child was to be a mechanic so I can make amazing and cool stuff, and that meant I studied a lot about how to make mech and robots and some stupid stuff that might be possible in another world.

Ah, I think I forgot something.

Oh, the brugots!!
