An island could be seen floating in the middle of the ocean, a vast forest spread across it's surface. In the middle of this forest there was a clearing, in this clearing one could see a strange wood structure, what were supposed to be walls looked more like sticks a child had stuck into the ground.
Inside of this structure a boy could be seen sleeping, his eyes began to tremble before fluttering open.
A hazy look could be seen in his eyes as he got up, a sad expression infested his face as he began to recall memories of the night before.
If not for the system message and the influx of information on building and creating, he might've thought it was just a dream.

The boy stood in silence as he stared at the squares, strangely he had come to call them "system messages" but why? He had never been told of what a system even was… right?
"Is this the [BookWorm] skill acting?"
Up until now he hadn't really questioned it but it seemed this "system" had been influencing more than just his strength.
"All of this can wait for some other time, I need to enter the interior of the island"
The boy turned and looked at his sad attamlt at a hut before turning around again and walking in a seemingly random direction.
He walked until he came upon a big tree, using his sword he cut it down and began to use the wood the build something.
He expertly crafted a giant wooden hammer out of the tree.
Moving back to the clearing the boy raised the hammer into the air, with a whoosh he brought it down to the ground.
A loud bang could be heard following it was the sound of metal creaking, it creaked and creaked as if trying to hold together before finally.
The ground caved in revealing a dirty dusty metal room below the clearing, strangely the boy had just barely missed it when he dug the holes almost like the world didn't want him to find the insides of the island.
Outis jumped down and into the dusty room, to the right a hallway could be seen, to the left stood a metal door.
Outis walked towards the hallway, as he walked through the dirty hallway maze he made his way to what one could only discover as a workshop.
It was filled with all sorts of gadgets, for some reason this room was actually rather prestine as if it had been cleaned only a couple days ago.
Outis wasted no time before going to the far left corner of the room, there was a storage closet filled with all sorts of colorful materials.
The boy moved throughout the closet effortlessly as he began to pick up several materials including some metals and a strange sphere the emitted a dim light.
After he got his materials he returned to the workshop were he sat down and began to work, he would often need to cut the metals into specific pieces or bend them. When he needed to do such things he would simply use the gadgets around the workshop to do so.
His project looked like a huminoid metal being with a hole in its chest cavity.
Many wires and other things could be seen inside the chest all connected to a small platform-esk thing the was in the chest. The platform seemed designed to hold some kind of spherical object and hold it tight.
The boy worked hard only periodically taking breaks or eating something which would seemingly appear on the table when he willed it to.
After what seemed like more than 24 hours the boy stopped working, he backed up and admired his work.
His work looked like a human made of a mixture of metals, it no longer had any wires coming out of it nor did it have a hole in its chest.
"Activate R-001 began working on emergency schedule"
The metal humanoid came to life on command, its face, once sleek metal, now had a smile, 2 white dots with one curved line below. R-001 got up as it walked out of the room, as soon as it entered the dirty hallways it started to clean them.
It cleaned the hallway with great precision before moving onto the next hallway.
Sigh
"With that I can rest and it'll clean the island automatically. Now I need to make another one to fix up any devices that have gotten broken from lack of use."
Purist got up as he began to walk towards the storage closet, he stopped mid-step as he yawned and his face showed a sleepy expression.
"Ah I can do that tomorrow"
He turned to exit the workplace but just then dropped from exhaustion, his breathing became rhythmic as he fell into a tired slumber.
