I was already imagining a beautiful city and a great start before I even opened my eyes, but when I opened my eyes, not only was I on a snowy mountain, I was surrounded by a huge forest!
I was stunned for a moment due to the amazing landscape, "maybe this isn't that bad a place to start" I subconsciously state, the tree's where tall and saturated, the grass was soft yet still full of colour and life and the sky was the brightest blue I've ever seen it.
While I was staring at the awe inspiring scenery, I was snapped back to reality when I saw 2 magical looking bluish transparent screen's pop up right front of my eyes-
==============================
[ 'Initiating The 'Great Mage System'' ]
[ 'Binding To Host' ]
[ 'Adding Details' ]
[ 'Scanning Surroundings' ]
[ 'System Initiation Sequence Status : Complete' ]
[ 'Has Host Been Informed Of The System Y/N?' ]
==============================
"Yes" I say excitedly
==============================
[ 'Skipping Tutorial Sequence' ]
[ 'Initiating U.I' ]
[ "Welcome Host" ]
==============================
Excited that I actually have a system AND made it to a world with magic, I jump around for a bit before realizing that I'm starting to get cold.
Then I remember that I'm on top of a mountain, and not just any mountain, A snowy mountain!
After deciding that I was going to use the system a bit while moving to the bottom of the mountain, I started heading out.
I started to think the word 'Status' in my head, and it actually worked!
Suddenly one of those bluish panels appeared out of thin air again-
='Status'=
========================================
[Health : 12/12]
[Strength : 5, Above Average]
[Agility : 3, Average]
[Endurance : 4, Average]
[Stamina : 3, Average]
[Intelligence : 4, Average]
[Mana : 2, Bellow Average(Current Planet)]
[Level : 1] [Xp : 0/50]
[Overall : 4, Average]
[Undistributed Stat Points : 0]
[Undistributed Skill Points : 0]
[Coins : 0]
[Skills : The Great Mage System(Godly+)]
[Titles : Bearer Of The Great Mage System , The Man Of No Skills, Traverser, Blessed]
========================================
After seeing my stats I was both positively and negatively surprised, positively because I was above average in strength and other than that I was just average, But On the other hand I was extremely negatively surprised by my mana, "I need to become a great mage, how should I do that when I don't even have average mana!" I shout aloud.
"Also does the system need to add that second title" I pout slightly
After calming down I think of the word 'Shop' , this time it showed something that I didn't expect-
========================================
[Opening Shop…]
[Error Detected, Host Is Not High Enough Level To Use The Shop, Re-Routing Host To Main Menu…]
========================================
After staring at that panel for a little, I look at the other one that appeared after it-
='Menu'=
========================================
[=Status= =Quest's= =Inventory= ]
[Overall : 4, Average]
[Level : 1] [Xp : 0/50]
[Health : 12/12]
[Coins : 0]
========================================
"I Guess I've only unlocked status, quests, inventory and the main menu." I whispered
Well let's check the quests, as I was thinking that I saw a panel show up right in front of me again-
='Quests'=
========================================
[Current Quests : None]
========================================
"Dang it, I was kinda hoping for an easy quest to get some money or an item or something, oh well" I mumble.
Let's check inventory, And just like before, a blue panel appeared right in front of me-
='Inventory'=
========================================
[Inventory : System Starter Pack(x1)]
========================================
Ooh, I didn't know that I got a starter pack, I wanna open it, wait, how do I retrieve stuff from here?
After a bit of fiddling around I figured out how take stuff out, and as I took out the starter pack, a medium sized leather pouch materialized out of thin air.
I decided to take a break from going down from the mountain and rested under a tree for a bit, while resting I decided to open the pouch.
Inside there was a small dagger, a mage's robe and a book.
First I put the robe on, switching out from my old and foreign clothes, but I kept them in my inventory as a piece of home.
Then, I put the dagger in my inventory, and then I hurriedly went over to the book to see what contents it held.
First I look at title, and there it says 'Skill Book : Light Heal'.
And just as I was reading I realize, "This is a skill book!" I shout excitedly.
I hurriedly open the book to see what's inside, but instead of words.
There was nothing?, after a moment of questioning, a ball of light seemed to be coming out the book, towards my chest, after it made contact with me, it disappeared, and then an influx of information came rushing into my head.
After that, the only thing that snapped me out of my slight daze was a system panel-
='Notice'=
========================================
[Congratulations, Host Has Learnt The Spell 'Light Heal']
========================================
What, how did the system find out so fast?
='Notice'=
========================================
[The Host has Gained The Titles 'Light Mage' And 'Healer']
[Distributing Rewards Into Inventory]
========================================
After seeing all of this I excitedly open my inventory and see 2 pouches, similar looking ones to the one I got from the starter pack.
I decide to start sprinting down the rest of the mountain to get to some sort of shelter, after I get there I'll open the rewards, because if I don't get down soon, I'll be stuck on the side of the mountain in the middle of the night.
And after realizing it was already sundown, i quicken my pace even more that before.
And so after I get to the bottom I decide to rest under a nearby rock, that had formed a nice, sturdy overhang, After sitting down for a while and catching my breath, I decide to open the rewards…
But right before i take the rewards out my inventory, I hear the sound of a low pitch, incoherent growling coming from beside me.
Questioning what was next to me, I look over and see a wolf pouncing at me at full speed, out of fright I get up while jumping back and then pull my dagger out from my inventory getting ready for a fight…
While I was getting my dagger the wolf was still continuing to rush at me, when I turned my head back to see the wolf, it was already too late, the wolf was too close for me to react.
The wolf bit into my flesh causing a huge amount of pain to come from my leg, after that moment of pain, I used my dagger to attempt to stab the wolf in the neck.
It seemed to expect that, it dodged but at the same time it let go of my leg, allowing me to use light heal, I had already learnt to use light heal and experimented with it while I was regaining my stamina, it costs one mana but can heal most minor slashes and wounds.
Luckily the wolf hadn't bit too deep yet, otherwise I wouldn't be able to heal myself.
After healing myself I felt much better, a little burnt out from using mana without much of it to begin with but definitely better than when i had bite marks in my leg.
Being able to move now, the fight continued…
