Darkness...
The pitch black void is all that Hiroko sees right now. Hiroko has an ethereal look cause at the moment her whole body is blue and you can slightly see through it.
Even though her eyes are open she is in a semi unconscious state so her eyes looked lifeless. A bright flash of light appeared before and Hiroko's soul hovered forwards to the light.
Making it to the light a stigma appeared on her chest. The life returned to her eyes and she blinked. Looking around not understanding what's going on she starts gasping for air only to find out she doesn't need any.
'This is strange... where am I?'
[I can answer that]
A small blue screen appeared before Hiroko. She is startled but shows some intrigue in this small blue screen.
'What are you?'
The bright light in front of Hiroko slowly dimmed till it completely disappeared revealing a girl with really long white hair who appears to be 15 years of age. Her face is expressionless with cold robotic eyes that feel like they can see everything but for Hiroko...
'cute'
[I am not meant for being cute... I am one of the many managers of THE VERSE of which Entity Hiroko Natsutki resides. Entity Hiroko Natsutki can call me Verse]
'What's THE VERSE?'
[This Verse unit doesn't have the authority level to answer this question. Entity Hiroko Natsutki doesn't have the authority level to receive this information]
'Am I dead?'
[Yes]
Hiroko's thoughts went from a calm sea to a raging storm at these words.
'How did I die I don't remember this. All I remember is hanging out with Kengaki-kun then nothing. What about my family... Wait who is my family? How can I not remember my own family that cared and raised me!'
[This Verse unit doesn't have the authority level to answer this question. Entity Hiroko Natsutki doesn't have the authority level to receive this information]
'Why do I not feel sorrow or any pain... I can still feel emotions but nothing concerning my death and family on earth...'
[This Verse unit doesn't have the authority level to answer this question. Entity Hiroko Natsutki doesn-]
'I get it! So what now?'
[Entity Hiroko Natsuki's soul will be placed in the vessel chosen by Entity Hiroko Natsutki's God]
'God?'
[Entity Hiroko Natsuki is an apostille for a God. Cause of this entity Hiroko Natsutki will keep memories of past life when she transitions to her new world]
'New world? Like isekai that I've read and watched about! 'I thought reincarnation stuff is fake but since it's real, my otaku side is taking over! Is there anything I should know about this world?'
[Receiving message from Entity Hiroko Natsutki's God. Would Entity Hiroko Natsutki like for this Verse unit to play the message]
'Wait my God? Sure play it'
Hiroko looking Verse noticed that always kept her mouth closed spoke.
"Find out yourself you damn otaku! Verse send her on her way"
[Acknowledged... preparing to send Entity Hiroko Natsutki to Ulviania]
A blue sphere formed around Hiroko and she tried to break free but found it impossible since she doesn't have the strength to even scratch the sphere around her.
'Wait for a second! I got a bone to pick with someone who disrespects my culture! Just-'
Hiroko is cut off by the sphere imprisoning her suddenly shot off with high speeds. The once dark void is now being filled with lights from stars off in the distance. Slowly everything turned white and Hiroko found it hard to stay conscious. She tried but it is futile she drifted off in a sea of memories.
(Sometime later)
In a poorly maintained room resides a little girl who is 4 years old. Her right eye cover by a dirty cloth cause it has been injured and left her with a very bad scar rending her blind on her right eye. Her delicate little hands had a callus or two on them. She had on rags that one could barely call clothes. The girl's jet black hair is poorly maintained and looked like it desperately needs a comb. This little girl is the new body of Hiroko Natsutki.
Hiroko who just got placed in this body stretched but felt some pain on her side that made her wince and wake up from her sleep.
Opening her eyes she didn't recognize the ceiling. She began looking around noticing how poor her current surrounding are.
'Living on the streets would be better than this place... I thought I would be transported in a body of a trash noble and I had to show everyone how strong I am now'
Hiroko brought her hand to her right eye and removed the cloth revealing the scar that goes down from her brow to cheek. Her right eye is open but she still can't see anything.
'What happened to this body?'
Without needing a mirror Hiroko could tell that her appearance isn't that great at all. She looked at other places on her body and sees that this body is malnourished and a bruise on her left torso near her ribs.
'Who treats a kid this badly?'
Hiroko went to rub her new neck but felt something on it.
'Is this a collar!? Am I a slave!? This explains my current conditions right now'
Looking around some more around the room Hiroko noticed that there is a tray on the ground with what from her guess to be food but it's untouched.
'Why would this girl pass up food? Unless...'
Hiroko thought of the possibility that the food is either drugged or it's poisoned. Since her current body is malnourished it must mean whatever is in the food is bad news. So her current plan is how to get food.
[System recommendation: Buy nutrition bars and vitamin milkshake]
A blue transparent screen appeared before Hiroko making her jump back surprised but she recognized this screen from the person or whatever she identifies herself as.
"Verse?..."
[Yes? Entity Hiroko Natsutki]
"So I got a sentient system!"
[I am not sentient. I am programmed to answer questions regarding the system within your authority level nothing more nothing less]
"So I can't have a normal conversation with you?"
[Yes and no... You can ask for help regarding the system, I can recommend items within your balance range, and you can tell me to buy items from the system. Anything other than this I will not answer you]
"Oh... Ok then can you explain the system for me"
[The system operates like the systems entity Hiroko Natsutki has read in her past time. There is no summoning, gacha, or roulette. Only status, shop, inventory, and workshop]
"I understand how everything else besides workshop works can you explain"
[Workshop takes items from inventory then lets you craft, dismantle, and upgrade them with the required materials]
"Is there anything else different about my system?"
[Yes your status]
"Status"

Looking at her poor stats Hiroko promised herself when she gets out of slavery she will raise them diligently.
"Can you explain classes and proficiencies"
[Classes mean you are an expert and can learn faster regarding the class. You have 1 main class and 2 subclasses. Proficiencies mean you are proficient in regards to certain things like hand to hand combat, etc...]
(A/N: Think of those stones in Skyrim)
"So I can use stuff outside my classes"
[As long you got the proficiency for it, Yes...]
"Will I be given quests?"
[Yes]
Now Hiroko understood she just a basic system that's a little different from others but hers has customer support as well.
"Show me the-"
"TORCHES OUT YOU SHITS!!!!"
A loud voice resonated from behind the door but it wasn't directly behind it. Footsteps start to get closer to her door but when she went to put the torch in her room out a realization hit her.
'I can't reach it'
