After seeing this status, Andrew murmuring to himself

"So, this is what called status. Is the race a goblin? This little green creature called goblin?"

*BEEP*

[That's correct. Goblin is the smallest and weakest creatures in this monster world. Also known as gremlin, or gnome, with different color skins than goblin. A small grotesque supernatural creature and regarded malevolent toward human beings]

"Eekk…who is that"

*BEEP*

[I'm automatic guidelines that help you understand this world of monsters]

"Can you answer my question?"

*BEEP*

[As long as the answer exist in the guidelines, I will answer]

"What is this skill?"

*BEEP*

[Skill is a unique ability that gained during creature adaption process to this world. Each creature has different skills that depend on how they adapt to this world]

"Where I can get the skill"

*BEEP*

[Skill can be gained by experiencing sufficient factors that can incite the skill to comprehend by the user]

"How to use this skill?"

*BEEP*

[Skill can be used if circumstances trigger it]

"I have this survival instinct skill, is that means if there's no danger to me, the skill will not activate?"

*BEEP*

[That's correct. But skill has limitation by level. The higher the level, the wider the scope of the skill's coverage. With your current level, you can't detect any danger more than 5 feet from you]

"How to raise my level?"

*BEEP*

[Kill your enemy. The tougher your enemy, the more experience you can gain]

"Can I raise my level without killing anything?"

*BEEP*

[Impossible]

"Sigh….if I kill something to eat, is that contribute to experience?"

*BEEP*

[Yes, although only a little. Killing weaker creatures than you only give little experience point]

"I see magic point in my status, can I use magic?"

*BEEP*

[Yes, but you must evolve to a creature that able to use magic first]

"And what is this hit point?"

*BEEP*

[It's a number of your life energy. If that hit point reaches zero, you die]

"It can decrease? How?"

*BEEP*

[If you get attacked and hit in the vital point, your hit point will decrease significantly. If you get poisoned, your hit point will slowly decrease until reach zero and you die]

"Is that hit point can increase?"

*BEEP*

[Yes, by raise your level]

"How to evolve into a stronger creature?"

*BEEP*

[Every time you reach 10th level, you can evolve into something better]

"Is there any other creatures besides goblin in this world?"

*BEEP*

[There are many other creatures besides goblin]

"Can you mention some of them?"

*BEEP*

[Yes, Orcs. This creatures easily to recognize because they look like a pig. Kobold. This creatures also easy to recognize because they look like dogs. Werewolf. This creature is a hybrid between human and wolf, they can change their appearance between human and wolf. When you see any creatures you can ask me what they are]

"You say to get experience, I must kill my enemy, but how can I kill my enemy with this weak creature?"

*BEEP*

[You don't have to kill your enemy alone. You can join a group of creatures like you and kill the enemy together. But experience gained also shared within the member of groups]

"Ugh, can I use any possible means to kill my enemy?"

*BEEP*

[Yes, you can use stone, sword or strangled or bite your enemy to death. It doesn't matter how you kill your enemy as long as your enemy dead]

"Can you tell me the advantages and disadvantages of this goblin creature?"

*BEEP*

[Advantages: Night vision, the goblin can see clearly in the night just like in the day. Super breeding: goblin can breeding with other mammal species that can give birth like human or elf. Mobs power: to cover the weakness in strength, goblin usually attack using numbers as their advantage. Camouflage: goblin's green skin makes them hard to see if they hide in the forest. Quick runner: although their legs are small they can run faster, especially in the forest compared with human being]

[Disadvantage: Low strength: if an adult goblin fight one on one with adult human, 100 percent the goblin will be lost. Small physique: unless evolved to the higher creature, goblin physique will always small and weak. Fragile: Goblin' skin is not thick and easy to injured by a weapon. Low intelligence: Goblin's small brain not designed to think something hard, they always follow their instinct to act]

"Thanks for your information automatic guidelines. Do you have a name?"

*BEEP*

[I'm part of the system, I don't have a name]

"Can I give you name? it's not comfortable calling you automatic guidelines. Can I call you Al?"

*BEEP*

[If that make you comfortable, you can call me Al]

"One more question Al, how to close this status?"

*BEEP*

[Just open your other eyes. That's mean our conversation also closed]

"Okay, I understand. Thank you"

*BEEP*

[You welcome]

When Andrew open his right eyes, the status panel that he saw with his left eyes also disappears. Al's sound also no longer can be heard. He stays in that quiet corner to think about what he should do next.
