Chapter 4: Me with Shin part 1
"Ok. I won't ask anyone except you and Onita."
"Never ask Onita. You need to loudly shout her name in order to summon her. That will attract attention to you. "
"Thanks again. Ok, I will ask only you. Then tell me, Shin, what is this SP?"
"It's XP. It is a form of energy that our technology has harvested. This energy makes us stronger. We need to hunt monsters to get XP from them."
"But I love rabbits!"
"Oh god! Ok, follow me, we'll team up."
"Like a squad?"
"Silly question, again! To team up means that I will create a team and you will join my team!"
"I can now be considered part of your team. Why bother going through formalities? Paperwork sucks everywhere!"
"Believe me, no one sucks here except for you!"
"What!?!"
"Sorry! I meant the team formation is part of a game setting. You only need to click on a button to create it. There is no paperwork needed at all. Look, you should have received an invitation by now."
Suddenly a window popped up in front of me.
It was written on it that Shin invited me to join his team. There was a question about whether I wanted to join his team. I raised my hand towards the window to click yes, but my hand penetrated through it. I looked at shin and found that he was laying on the ground laughing and wheezing loudly:
"Unbelievable! You are trying to touch the screen! C'mon, you can't be that ignorant!"
I looked at him with real anger and was about to leave him. This moronic and arrogant swordsman! He rushed to me, saying:
"Wait! I'll stop laughing!"
"Do you promise?"
"Well, I'll promise if you don't make another dumb mistake."
I looked at him in anger! This idiot intended to keep laughing at me!
"Ok, ok. I won't laugh at you ever again. Are you happy now?"
"Deal! Now tell me how I can accept your invitation."
"Simple, just think about accepting. Destiny games are based on your thinking and takes orders directly from your brain. "
I tried accepting the invitation in the way he told me. It worked! I saw the choice of yes change to green then the whole window vanished. I saw another window pop up in my peripheral vision.contemporary romance
There were two names written in green. Shin hurried to speak before I asked another silly question:
"You must have seen the window of the team. This window, you can make it visible or you can make it disappear with a thought. Try to make it vanish."
I followed his tip and thought about making the window vanish. It disappeared! Wow! That was a cool tip, swordsman Shin! I played a little by making the window appear and vanish. It was really fun!
"I bet you are playing with your window, silly girl."
I looked at him and noticed he was trying hard to keep from smiling. I was mad at him! Why was everything I did so funny to this crazy swordsman?!
"Calm down. Now, this is a big thing you need to check! Do you know what skills you have?"
He managed to pique my interest.
"What does that strange word mean?"
"Strange word? Ok, I will pretend I never heard you say that. This "strange word" means everything here, you silly girl.
We try hard to upgrade our powers so we can use our skills better. We either upgrade to learn more powerful skills or to be able to use many skills in the same fight.
You can consider these skills as talents or halos or curses or spells or abilities or whatever term you understand."
He winked at me while saying his last words. This damn swordsman was acting cool again! I understood what he meant though.
Skills are like the spells in my kingdom. I was lucky to meet someone like him to explain this to me.
"How can I get these skills?"
"You already have them. Try to think about your profile and you'll see your skills."
Again, I thought about seeing my profile, and a window popped up directly in front of my face! I nearly lost my balance out of fright! I managed not to fall and looked at this surreal window.

"What is all that info?!"
"That's your profile, Agatha. There, you find many of your stats, which you can consider your special powers.
These stats, or special powers, define how strong you are. Each class has its own unique stats that you must focus on. For example, my swordsman class focuses on Strength and Endurance.
Also, Agility is an important stat. Your class isn't common, but you should have nearly the same stats as me."
I looked again, and found what he just told me about. I looked at the values and they were very weak.
"How can I raise their values?"
"You need free AP. Every level you get you will have 10 free AP for you to distribute freely.
Each time you rise a level, your stats become stronger and your skills become more lethal."
"What are we waiting for? Let's go and kill some rabbits!"
I moved in the direction in which most of the people around me were heading towards. Shin looked at me with a frustrated and queer look. I was about to crack a joke about him, but he said in a decisive tone:
"If you laugh at me, silly girl, then my previous promise to you is invalid!"
I barely stopped myself! He looked at me and said seriously:
"How will you kill rabbits? With your words? C'mon take out your newbie spear and let's go and kill some rabbits."
"My spear?"
"C'mon! Just think about it! It's in your Inventory!"
"What is an Inventory?"
"Just read your profile again. Read it very carefully!"
