System privileges

I woke up to find myself in a large bed. I began to gather my thoughts and remembered to have fallen asleep during family talks. I was embarrassed, suddenly a stream of knowledge flashed into my mind; this was the assimilation process and I started browsing through them in my mind. I never heard or seen many things, but I seem to know it somehow. My mind was clearer and I felt like I could focus on several things simultaneously.

It was truly a magical experience, now that I think about it; I never knew the full capabilities of System. I was busy with so much this past week and totally forgot about it. All I know that it can provide my knowledge,

"Are there more functions, Apollo. Please explain everything about the system.?" I said in my mind.

" Yes, young master, first you have to understand, your mind is a gateway which works like a conductor and storage for information. You have already absorbed the basic science, so it will be easier to explain.

There are nine main realms in the whole universe; your system allows you to access one of those realms. Every realm has their own gods and goddesses; they watch over it and sometime guide the mortals.

Every realm has many adjacent realities which are slightly different from one another; your mind connects these two different adjacent realities but can also access different realities in the said realm.

You can draw knowledge from these places, from science to literature to anything, but your mind needs to develop to incorporate said knowledge. So, it will take your determination and hard work to slowly absorb different things. Certain things will be easier like literature, but you still have to practice to become more creative. You have a vast library of books and art you can replicate easily, but to create new art you have to improve your understanding.

You could find familiar faces in this reality who will be slightly or completely different from their counterparts in other realities. They may excel at the same thing or totally other things depending on the path they took.

You can also find works in any field that are not present in this version of reality. Saying all this, may I suggest something ?"

I nodded to give it a go-ahead sign.

" Human minds are not capable of storing everything about a specific reality. You will surely die if you do, that this is why I am here to guide you sometimes. But even I don't have such power. I suggest targeting an adjacent reality; you can learn about its past and future, which will help you establish yourself in this one, you can plagiarize their work; learn from them to create your own work later--- "

I interjected, " Won't I be stealing others work?"

" No, as I said, this is different. Some of those people may not exist here, or they could be struggling in their field; some of them could be present here under different names; and some people don't deserve their reputation. It is not morally unethical if you do it the right way. You have a all-knowing system, you can act without reservation. "

I nodded , " I understand."

" On to the system; it's not complicated. You get different titles for your work in different fields, there are five levels of it, namely:

Novice: Has minimal or textbook knowledge without connecting it to the practice. You know, very little at this stage.

Advanced beginner: Has basic knowledge of key aspects of the practice, at this stage, you know something but still far from the peak.

Competent: Has good working and background knowledge of the area of practice and Can achieve most tasks using own judgment

Proficient: has depth of understanding of discipline and area of practice and can take full responsibility for own work.

Expert: has authoritative knowledge of the discipline and deep tacit understanding across areas of practice and can achieve excellence achieved with relative ease. At this stage you can take responsibility for going beyond existing standards and creating your own interpretations.

You have to work hard and have to have a deep understanding of every stage to advance further up.

There are numerous passive titles which will unlock depending on your understanding, which will make learning certain skills easier. Quantity is huge, so I cannot list them, but you will get a reminder from time to time. It will take a few days to compile your experiences and you can watch it then.

Some of them are already in effect, like "parallel thinking" which you acquired recently. It lets your brain perform several tasks simultaneously; you should have felt its effect."

I nodded in my mind, recalling the earlier experience of how I could process things faster and easier. He continued--

"The system will also provide a defensive mechanism, like fighting style, disease resistance, etc, so the young master can live worry-free. We cannot have you dying early, can we? It is also a blessing provided by the Supreme God."

I was processing all this knowledge because it will help later.

I was wandering inside the room, carefully looking at the gold inlays on the bed. The bed seems to be hand-built by talented furniture makers; the frame is made from different woods and has intricate carvings. The bed has a classy canopy and can easily fit ten people of my size. the headboard is custom-built and features diamonds—or other stones which were dazzling to look at. It looked very expensive.

I was listening to Apollo at the same time when he reminded me--

" The last thing is that, you are an anomaly in this reality, so you cannot foresee its future. Your actions will change the world and you will feel the effect as you will have adjacent reality for comparison." He stopped after that.

I made my way to the mirror to finally unveil the mystery that's been bugging me all this time. What I saw was surprising to say the least.
