{Absorbing authority 5.....4.......1}
"Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Jayson was suddenly woken up as he felt an intense pain wash over his body.
He felt as if his body was being stuffed full until it ballooned out and began to crack.
"Ahhhh, what....is..ha" Jayson tried asking as the pain slowly faded and he fainted.
{Absorption successful
Energy sufficient for a system upgrade;
Upgrading 1%...16%....87%.....100%
System upgrade complete }
......
"Ugh, ah, ouch. What happened, I feel as if I was run over multiple times by a truck" Jayson said as he he woke up.
At first he was still feeling disoriented but as his mind slowly settled down he began to remember what had happened to him.
"Wait how come I feel pain, I thought I had died and become a ghost" He said as he slowly sat up.
'Unless maybe it was all just a dream' Jayson thought with a bit of hope, but it was all flushed away as he observed his surroundings and found out it looked nothing like his room.
All around Jayson was an empty white void of space, even the floor he had woken up on seemed like a solid white light. The only thing that Jayson could see was a miniaturised tree floating in the middle of the space and giving off a green glow.
"What happened, how did I get here" Jayson said as he slowly began to recall what he had seen before he lost consciousness.
"I remember falling, but when I reached the ground I was drawn towards a light" Jayson recalled
"Hey system what is going on" Jayson asked as he finally remembered the system.
{DNG}
{Welcome host to The Yggdrasil System.
Would the host like to receive the system tutorial?
Yes/No}
"Wah? who are you, what happened to my system!" Jayson said in shock as he could hear a different voice in his head.
The voice sounded like that of Alfred from the batman movies he had watched as a kid. He also noticed that a new system interface with a green background and golden edges appeared in front of his eyes.
{Answering the host questions;
The system has gone through some upgrades as the host body had sufficient energy
Host can refer to the notifications panel to understand what the upgrades are and the benefits the host has obtained due to the upgrades}
"Okay, but how do I open this notification panel" Jayson said as he was still surprised by the voice of the system. It was no longer androgynous and robotic, but instead it reminded him of Alfred from the batman movies he had watched as a kid.
{All system functions can be used by the host by simply thinking of the name of said function
The system advise the host to go through the tutorials before using the system functions }
{Would the host like a tutorial
Yes/No}
"Yes" Jayson said
{The system currently possess four functions which are; the status function which shows the host health etc.
The Mission funtion; here the host will be given daily missions etc to help the host accomplish his mission which will reward the host when completed
The shop function; here the host can buy different things using the system coins. This includes knowledge, materials, etc.
And finally the notifications, here the host can see all missed notifications and other important informations}
"Okay I get all that, after all this isn't my first time reading system novels" Jayson said
'Status' Jayson thought as he decided to see what his status looks like as that might give him an idea on what to do.
Host: Jayson
Health:100
Growth Level: 1 ;(next level: 100PE)
Rank:0
Stats:
Strength:6; Speed:11; Agility:9, Intelligence:12; Stamina: 20
Stats Points(SP):---
Prime Energy(PE):---
System Coin(SC):--- |
{Would the host like the systemto explain?
Yes/No}
"Yes" Although he knew of some, there were others he wasn't sure of like the growth level, rank, etc
{Name: this shows the host name
Health: shows the amount of health..
The growth level shows the height of the host body every level is an increase of 10meters
The rank shows the host status. With every increase in ranks, the host will be rewarded
The strength stats shows the amount of force the host can exert or the amount of weight the host can lift.
The speed stats shows how fast the host is when running while the agility stats shows how quickly the host can react.
Intelligence stats shows the host intelligence level while the stamina stat shows the host's stamina
Stats points can be used to increase any of the host stats
According to the information the system had acquired, Primordial or prime energy is the highest form of energy in this dimension and it is necessary for the host growth.
System coins can be used in the system shop. The host can get system coins by either doing missions or selling things to the system }
" Wow what an info dump" Jayson said while rubbing his forehead with his thumb
'I'm sure if I was in a novel, some readers would have packed up and left by now' Jayson thought in frustration as even though he had always disliked this part when reading novels, it was currently his life and he couldn't just skip to the next page as he would be needing all this information in order to know how best to use his resources
Jayson looked around but seeing nothing but a miniaturised ancient looking tree, he decided to sit on the floor until he understood more about what to do and were he currently was from the system
" OK so where am I, and why am I still a ghost I thought you said I would be possessing a body" Jayson asked in confusion,
Normally when the protagonist gets to possess a body they become the owner of the body but he felt as if he was in those fictional soul realm with no way out
{Answering the host, the host is currently in a pocket dimension of the Yggdrasil seed which the host tried to possess}
"Wait, isn't Yggdrasil some mythological tree?, and what do you I tried to possess, you literally shoved me inside" Jayson asked the system
"Don't tell me I've become a tree!!" Jayson said flustered
'I was planning on going for some adventure, maybe get some harems along the way, how would I do that if I'm a tree cuz last I checked trees don't get to move around' Jayson thought
{Not completely host} The system replied
"What do you mean not completely"
{Due to the host soul being mediocre, it would have been destroyed and assimilated by the pseudo-consciousness of the Yggdrasil seed
So the system protected the host by absorbing all the seed's energy in order to help the host soul to partially merge with the seed}
"What do you mean partially " Jayson asked
{It means the host has 100% control over the yggdrasil seed while keeping your identity }
"OK I get it, more or less" Jayson said
"So what do I do now, I mean I'm currently stuck in this white void, how will I continue my original mission of being a pioneer" Jayson asked
{The host does not need to worry, the host mission as a pioneer is 80% complete when you safely entered this dimension and inhabited a body}
{All the host needs to do is to explore this dimension as the system will document all the lifeforms or objects the host comes in contact with}
{Also the host is currently a yggdrasil seed meaning you will have to grow and become a yggdrasil tree}
"Okay how do I acquire such information when I'm stuck in a pocket dimension and also what do you mean grow to become a yggdrasil tree"
{Will the host like me to explain his duties as a Yggdrasil seed}
{Yes/No}
'Why do I get a feeling like I'm about to receive another info dump' Jayson thought wearily
"*sigh* Yes..?"
{A Yggdrasil seed is a descendant of a Yggdrasil tree, and there are currently 8 other Yggdrasil seeds apart from the host according to the information extracted from the host current body
As the highest lifeform known in this dimension, the Yggdrasil seeds have complete control over the highest level of energy known as Primordial or prime energy
The Yggdrasil seeds can make use of prime energy to create anything they desire as long as they have the requirement. Prime energy is also needed for it's growth}
"OK, so how do I get this prime energy" Jayson asked as he looked at his status and saw that he didn't have a single drop of prime energy
{The Yggdrasil seeds have different means by which they get prime energy
The host can acquire prime energy by naturally absorbing it from the atmosphere, the higher the number of worlds under the host's control increases the rate of absorption
The host can also gain prime energy from the creatures he creates, as long as they increase their realm using other forms of prime energy the host will receive a percentage of that energy which will then be converted to prime energy
Or by making means for which the creatures that belongs to the host's worlds strengthen themselves, which will also give a percentage to the host }
'This prime energy sounds very cool' Jayson said as he began to imagine all the giant gundams and powerful things he could create
"So how do I start absorbing this prime energy from the atmosphere" Jayson asked excitedly
{The host is required to enter meditation to begin absorbing prime energy}
"Okay so how do I start meditating, do I just sit with my legs crossed and calm my mind as I had seen I the movies" Jayson asked
{That would work but the system advises the host to acquire a meditation manual}
"What do I need a meditation manual for" Jayson asked in confusion as since he could already begin absorbing prime energy what use did he have for a cultivation manual.
{A meditation manual can help the host increase his speed of absorbing prime energy.
That is, if the host were to absorb prime energy at 0.1/1hr, time required could be increased to 1/30min depending on the level of the manual}
"Okay I get it, so how do I get this meditation manual" Jayson asked as he couldn't wait to start absorbing prime energy
