System Tutorial Dungeon
Chapter 4
*Congratulations System Tutorial has examined your spark and equalized it out. If you accept you shall receive the passive skill [Personal Pocket-Realm] and the advanced skill [Avatar] (Yes) or (No). If you don't agree, then your spark shall return to your abilities till you use it again.
Two new skills if I accepted. Personal Pocket-Realm would be what Gabe would need to stop surviving his unending struggle to stay alive. The divine Avatar skill was especially amazing! I could create a clone of myself! I understood that I could create the clone and put him in the same room size pocket realm of mine and that avatar clone could act with its own brain. If the clone is to die, I would gain all its experiences. This was an epic ability.
I concentrated on the question and answered yes. Now I can die, and not die! I needed to see it in my stats! "Stats." I stated.

Sure enough, both skills were there! I also had something new in my active abilities but I don't recall ever receiving. Infinite Inventory? I wonder if Gabe is in the new pocket realm. I questioned and with my eyes still closed concentrated on where I knew the pocket realm was.
Like a snap my attention was right there where the pocket realm was… But Gabe wasn't there. Following the path of where he was before, I found him there still struggling more than ever. 'Gabe, I got a new pocket realm can you go there?' I asked, but as soon as I finished Gabe disappeared. Snaping back to that pocket realm there he was laying down in the nothing room.
'Open your eyes and keep an eye on your surroundings, I'll be just a second.' Gabe said in a relaxing voice.
I did as he asked and snapped my eyes open, looking around. But it was all dark, it smelt like a damp cave. I could hear a strange scratching noise in the direction I was facing from being teleported. I should activate my avatar. It would be better to fight what ever is in here with two of me.
I kept my eyes open, like Gabe requested even though I couldn't see and concentrated on the ability [Avatar (1). The darkness made the window pretty bright, but the light I saw the rest of the cave could not see. So that means other people wouldn't see my windows I have open.
*[Avatar (1)] as being a divine skill, this skill takes no power to use. Must transfer one un-equipped class to Avatar. Upon death of you or Avatar class is returned to the remaining survivor.
As I read the definition, I understood how to call upon my clone that I must materialize in my pocket realm. The Energy around the pocket realm room was nearly endless. Just a small spark of power from the highest and most powerful god an 'Elder God'. It made me feel small, and powerful.
I allowed the skill to guide me in the process of creating my clone. The power was quick to converge on the room, across from Gabe's surprised face a little me stood naked in the room. A notification appeared to guide me to finish the processes.
*Please select a class to equip to your avatar.
I must choose a class for my new clone.
I decided to choose [Battle Monk], as the other classes I held were considered bad in heaven, and earth both.

Apparently, my two summoning abilities didn't follow me, which made sense. I was the clone; I could sense my main self-observing me and Gabe looking at each other.
Gabe's face went from surprise to un-belief. "I see it, I see you. Truly a divine avatar." Realization came to his face now. "You used the spark! I didn't know Sparks could just copy a god's ability. This will be very good."
Gabe thought for a second then seemed to come to an arrangement. "As this is a divine skill, I as your guardian angel, can travel between you clones! I sense dungeon creatures close by. It would be wise for you." He then pointed to me, the clone. "To go in front and fight for your life, keeping your main body protected."
I saw the logic, and I was excited to go for it. I expanded my senses past this pocket realm to a bird's eye view around my main body. I picked a spot in the dark in front of my main body and thought myself towards it. I landed on my feet, naked in front of my main body. My feel felt the cold stone floor and I jabbed something sharp into my right foot. Pulling my leg up in pain I nearly fell as I sent little rocks going everywhere. I felt my right foot forward feeling out the ground till I found a comfortable spot to place my right foot.
I couldn't even walk through this, how was I supposed to fight what ever I was supposed to fight. Then the scariest sound enhanced my anxiety and fear. A deep quiet growl came from all around me because of the echo. What ever just growled… was big!
The Ragnarök title looked good right now, I had to tank what ever was out there to protect my main body. I already couldn't see, and since I'm bait, I'd rather not feel the pain that would come with fighting what ever just made that sound.
I mentally thought about equipping the Ragnarök title, quickly accepting the notification. Panic flooded through me as my legs becoming extremely weak making me slip and fall heavy onto my back. But to my surprise, I felt the pressure but no pain. It felt like my skin was invincible. I guess it is invincible according to the skill. The blindness I didn't feel. I was already blind.
The sound of the growl turned into a sharp crack then I felt something jump on top of me and a dull mouth closed on my neck, trying to crush through my skin. But it didn't. the massive jaw around my throat was too strong for me to pull it off me and the weight kept me tied to the ground.
But it didn't hurt, it didn't cause any damage. I was invincible. So how do I kill this beast, I'm not even strong enough to remove this dog size creature from my body. I felt stronger then I was before from the class equip. But it wasn't enough strength to remove this beast on me.
"Stats" I stated wondering what my stats were at.

I still was double my strength! My constitution was out of this world and my dexterity was three times what it normally was.
Why couldn't I remove this dog like creature from me then? I tried to poke my fingers into the eye sockets and got a splash of eye goose for it, but the dog like creature kept its hold. So then I stood up, and the creature just hung around my neck without moving. I felt with my fingers around the dog like creature and felt that the entire head had been smashed together.
'Skaven's, there is more you must try to aggro them all.' Gabriel's voice scared me that I had actually jumped a little bit then calmed myself down. I tried again to remove the dog's mouth from my neck but only succeeded in smashing it more.
'Why can't I get this thing off my neck?' I questioned Gabe, hoping he could help me. Then to follow what he told me I yelled with my mouth. "Yip Yip, come get a piece of this innocent naked human here!"
I felt a notification in the back of my mind, and realized that it must have sounded when the Skaven creature died. So, I pulled I up just to quickly see it.
*You have defeated a level 5 Skaven hound. You have been rewarded with 5 experience points. Only 5 more to reach your level Keep it going.
So weird how this is exactly like a game. I wonder what leveling up will feel like. Just as Gabriel started talking I felt another two hounds lock on to my right leg, and a large blunt weapon smacked me a cross my left side sending me to the ground. During this process the hounds attached to my legs didn't budge even with the force of the shock that cracked the cave slick rock below me.
'It is the Skaven's hounds' ability, it's a kill strike that cannot be prevented. Usually only tanks can survive their attacks with enough constitution. But with your title you don't even need constitution.' Gabe seemed to be analyzing for me while I crushed the two hounds at my right leg.
'What hit me' I asked wondering if Gabe could see, or perhaps sense better than me.
'Skaven warrior, he is coming in for another…' Before Gabe could finish I was hit by something hitting me hard into the chest. The Skaven hound that was around my neck was the only thing that was destroyed from the attack.
'There is many, you must aggro them all… One is heading towards your main body.' Gabe stated and when he said it I felt the creature stalking my main body. How…? Before I could finish the question, knowledge flooded through my mind. Gab had shown me what he was seeing, and it was like a sonar bling and a wave went out revealing all the creatures in this tunnel I was in.
Then, after the room went back to darkness, I got another notification, and then even with my eyes shut I could see everything around me. Not with my eyes, but with my mind, it was mind boggling. Knowing my main body was in danger, I quickly jumped up in front of the warrior that was coming in with another swing. I brought up my left arm to block the club coming in and kicked as hard as I could this muscle-bound rat looking creature in the 'no no square.'
The club hit my arm, but instead of following through my arm actually stopped it but it did send me flying to the rats left. I then quickly ran towards the rat holding a staff and what looked like cheap robes. It had bones around its shoulders and on its chest. Some kind of sick looking talisman.
The rat stopped going towards my main body when it noticed me running at it. It held up its hand and a green light appeared at the end of its finger then raced towards me washing over my body. I could see it, but I didn't feel it. Tackling the weird rat mage I brought up my hands to its head and tried to crush its head like I did the hounds that were still attached to me, but the skull wouldn't break under my hands. I swiped my fingers through its eyes, like I did the hounds and accidently crushed the creature's skull.
Another notification binged, but I ignored it and the others that had sounded before. I gotta poke their eyes out then their head becomes weak? To test my hypothesis, I ran towards the warrior rat that was running towards me and I jumped up above the rats club swing and with surprise that I could jump that high I came down behind the warrior. I quickly turned around and jumped on the creatures back digging my fingers into its eye sockets, and the head crushed like thin paper.
Sensing no other creatures any where close to us, I examined the way I was seeing everything. I didn't see out of my eyes, I saw with my mind. I could see everything around me, but there was no color, just a gray color all around.
Seeing that we were safe, I looked back at my main body and seen him sitting down in a meditation stance. Well what ever he was doing, I was the body guard so I kept my attention down the cave as far I could see, but only saw it slowly turn to the left a ways down.
'How did you do that?' Gabe asked, I could feel him inside my head now. I knew that if I looked at my stats that they would show my two summon skills. My guess was when he was in my body the main body lost the skill to do just that. Before I answered I thought about the spear summon ability and concentrated on it. I could use a weapon. Another notification, but no spear.
I looked around the tunnel again, seeing no immediate threat I checked my notifications.
*You have defeated a level 6 Skaven hound. You have been rewarded with 5 experience points.
*Congratulations, you have reached the threshold of your level. 11/10 experience, you are now level 1. You have been rewarded with one attribute point and one skill point.

*Warning! Your class wont allow weapons outside of the class that is equipped. [Summon Jhinn Weapon] Failed.
I skimmed through the notifications, I just learned a new skill [True Sight]! But I didn't cast it, it was Gabriel! Does that mean I get any skills he has? This must be tested later. I received Rare Loot! How does that work?
Excited about the
*Level 8
Umm, yes thank you. As if the loot could hear my answer I experienced a pop and a weird looking staff with bones hanging from the top appeared in my space. I held out my hand and with a pop of black smoke the staff appeared in my hands. Then I gave the notification a quick glance before closing it.
*Congratulations you have received a staff. Staff gives +1 power, and +1 power hour regain.
No way! I thought, then I made it disappear with another pop. Then I looked down at the brute corpse and touched it with my hand. With another pop of black smoke, the body disappeared into my inventory. I looked around for the club weapon, but it was no where to be seen. But this staff was on the weird shaman rat, so I looked over to it then quickly walked over to it. The dead shaman was naked… no gear, no weapon. I decided with unlimited inventory to go ahead and pop the shaman then the three hounds as well.
With a weird twist of my mind I felt my main body requesting me to release myself, so my experience could be collected by my main self. Seeing that we were safe, and no other creatures were around to endanger my main self, I released myself.

Sure, enough as soon as I assigned the battle monk class to my clone I watched with mild interest as my clone self-looked at the giant Angel in front of him.
Gabe's face went from surprise to un-belief. "I see it, I see you. Truly a divine avatar." Realization came to his face now. "You used the spark! I didn't know Sparks could just copy a god's ability. This will be very good."
Did he just say a god's ability? Does that mean only gods have this ability? Questions I must research later.
Gabe had his thinking face equipped with a short pause before he spoke; "As this is a divine skill, I as your guardian angel, can travel between you clones! I sense dungeon creatures close by. It would be wise for you." He then pointed to my clone, before he continued. "To go in front and fight for your life, keeping your main body protected."
I concentrated on my clone and could see he was processing this information then he just disappeared. I felt my heart shoot up into my throat, wondering where my clone went.
'Be calm, your clone is a few meters in front of you.' Gabe voiced, which surprised me. How did he know that I was panicking? 'You need to make no noise there is a few Skaven's in front of us in the tunnel.' Gabe voiced to me.
I tried to see my self in front of me but I couldn't see anything it was all pitch black. Then a startle crept up my back when I heard a growl. It sounded too deep to be something small!
Then I heard many growls and a scuffing noise. This was terrifying! I didn't hear any rational noises, I was positive my clone was getting mangled, and I was next.
What Could I do? Gabe told me to be calm. I took a slow quiet breath and slowly sat down on the ground getting into my meditative state.
"Hah, your clone just activated the Ragnarök title!" Gabe said it in a calm and happy voice which made me feel a ton better.
So that must mean my clone just lost half his stats, and is blind! But I was blind too, I wonder if I could activate it as well. I didn't want to chance it, what if I ended up taking it from the clone and then I would lose my human meat shield.
That leaves the classes, as much as I didn't want to use a disgusting class that could only be evil. I would master it! I would make sure not to use it for evil. With my decision decided I went ahead and equipped the Death God legendary class.
I heard the notification inside of my head, but it couldn't distract me from the aura that was floating around me. This, this was power, it felt amazing. "Stats" I stated excited to see what the class had done to me.

My max power was through the roof, and it felt exhilarating. Trying to refocus my thoughts from the amount of power that was radiating from me, it felt like pure orgasm.
I heard a voice; it broke me out of my reverie. It was Gabe, but when I investigated the pocket realm he wasn't there. Where did he go?
Then I saw light, a bright neon green light swirl from one point a couple inches from the finger of a cloaked rat dude. Then the green lit up the entire tunnel as the greenish flames washed over my clone! Oh no! What should I do?
Then to my amazement, my clone gave a quick smirk then tackled the cloaked rat down to the ground. The light being gone dropped a blanket of darkness down around me once again. With nothing to see, I decided to take a quick glance at the notifications that were going off in my head.
*You have equipped the
Umm, Great Reaper? Should I un-equip the class? Another scuffle and a gurgle had echoed through the tunnel. I tried to scan the area, but I was unable to see anything. This class didn't give me any skills or spells, kind of a rip off.
I then mentally un-equipped the class, and equipped the

The power from necromancer looked like +15, other then that nothing happened, no new skills, no spells, no reapers coming for my heart.
'Your avatar has killed all the creatures in our vicinity. And has gained some interesting skills, you should have it release so you can have them as well.' I don't know what excited me more, the fact that the clone killed what ever was all in here naked. Or that my clone has gotten some interesting skills.
I reached out with my mind knowing where my clone was for some reason and mentally told it to release. After a few seconds, my clone's experiences all collapsed into mine, as if I was the one who just killed them all. My clone appeared in my pocket realm with Gabe.
I can see! And I made it to level 2, and I had a piece of equipment. I stood up, then held out my hand and made the staff appear in my hands. I felt the one extra point in my max power bringing it to 26. But the Regain was the most exciting, now I could restore my power!
I could feel my clone inside of my pocket realm with my guardian angel. It only stayed there for a second before it appeared in front of me and began to slowly move down the tunnel.
