The moment I made my decision in my heart, G-FRAG who was sleeping woke up and sat straight in the air.
"Well then, since both of you are ready, let's start with character creation."
"Character creation!?"
"Yes, character creation is most important first step of every game and this is a game as well.
Ok, then move towards the screen and place your hands on it."
We both went and touched the screen. Two rainbow coloured beads came out out the screen and entered our bodies. We both felt confused as nothing seems to have happened.
We both looked at G-Frag with questioning eyes.
"Those beads are terminal beads, think of your status in your mind and it will appear in your mind. Pretty high-tech isn't it."
I decide to ignore him for a while and opened my status in my mind with a thought. It was totally blank.

Well let's leave name for now and go into the race section. It has a lot of options such as all the normal and mythical animals, insects, birds and also the fantasy races.
It has a list such as
Dragon race (20)
Pheonix race (20)
Qilin race (19)
Spirit race (19)
Fallen Angel race (18)
.
.
.
Slime race (2)
It seems like nearly every race is present but what is the number after each race. I asked G-Frag and he then answered.
"Oh, I forgot to mention that you have 60 points to select your primary race, secondary race, additional racial characteristics and life skill. So distribute your points properly because once you confirm your whole status it's unchangeable."
"If it is such a important information then tell us earlier!!"
"No worries, nothing went wrong, right ?"
I can't even come up with a reply to this statement of his. So I concentrate on my status again. So I have 60 points and things to select are 4.
For now I should check what the info about each race is. Let's check the dragon race first.
Dragon Race

I decided to select Dragon race as my primary race as it gives my great physical strength and affinity with 4 elements. I left the secondary race and additional racial characteristics column empty for now and took a look at Life skills.
It also has a list
Devour (20)
Transfer (20)
Vitality Storage (18)
One Hit Armor (16)
.
.
.
Mixer (11)
Sharing (10)
Herculean Strength (9)
There are far less Life Skills compared to the number of races but it makes sense not to have lot of Life Skills. Let's check there info as well.
Devour
Points required : 20
User can gain the skills that the creature has by consuming it. If user already has that skill that it will add into skill proficiency.
Transfer
Points required : 20

.
.
Mixer
Points required : 11

Sharing
Points required : 10
User can share/transfer anything as long as both parties in question gave their consent.
Herculean Strength
Points required : 9
User's strength can increase by a multiple of 1.5 but user's agility will reduce to 3/4 of original amount.
Hmm....
If I select Devour then I can gain skills non-stop but I will have to consume the creatures for it. Seems a bit difficult to eat that much.
Next will be Transfer, it is really useful to increase 5 stats by sacrificing one stat but it can also become a double edged sword if opponent focused his attention on that reduced stat.
The other Life skills are good but they are not fit for me. Vitality Storage and One Hit Armor are defensive skill and suitable for my style. Other support skills are also not good.
Hmm... I have to decide one among Devour and Transfer Life Skill. One is to eat a lot and another is double edged sword.
Wait a minute, if I select Devour and Slime race in addition racial characteristics then I can use slime's absorb to eat all the creatures and then can use Devour to gain skills.
Yes, it's definitely possible and slime also has regeneration will can act as a defensive layer for me. Ok, it's decided now. I select Devour in Life Skill and Slime race in Addition racial characteristics.
Now only secondary race section is left empty. Upon taking a glance at the race list again, I select Fallen Angel race as my secondary race.
It has high affinity with both light and dark elements and it will complement perfectly with Dragon race's affinity with the other four elements.
So I select Dragon race, Fallen Angel race, Slime race and Devour in the four column. All the 60 points are used now.
Before confirming, I took a look at my sister to find she was also looking at me. I first thought to ask her what she selected but then resisted and decided to not ask her.
I have confidence in her that she will not select something stupid. And thus we both smiled at each other for a while and then I said.
"Only name column is left now, you should give me one and I will give you one as well."
"Ok brother."
We both told each other the names we thought as then filled them.
"G-Frag, we have selected our races and Life Skill. We are ready now."
" Hehe!! Well since you are ready then I shall also respond by showing you a beautiful scene as you confirm your status."
Beautiful scene? Seems something that I should look forward to.
After making my mind I gave a command to the status in my mind.
"Confirm"
