After the flash blinded me again i was in a white room this time.
"At least they changed the waiting room what am I to do now?"
[DING!!]
"Huh what's this?"
I said as a dark gray panel with the corners covered in black purple flame blue text starts to appear.
[Please choose a name if you cannot choose a name you may have the system choose one for you.]
"Hmm i don't really want to choose one myself because if i do it'll just be cringe I'll just have the system choose one for me."
[Do you want the system to choose a name for you?]
"Yes"
[DING! Congratulations on your new name Dante Enver Avitus]
"... what kind of name is that? Gonna be honest it's kinda meh i mean it's not bad but I don't know I just thought it would be you know more."
[DING!! New user registered as Dante Enver Avitus now selecting immortal Dante's class....#%!#$@*&...congratulations!! a new and unique class has been born Umbra Mortis.]
[Umbra Mortis]
[Description: Unleash the power of death and shadows with the unique class Umbra Mortis. Summon and command dark entities. And so much more as you unravel and discover truths, and concepts beyond your competition and be yea careful as you go deeper into the unknown.]
"....Well that was interesting and somewhat helpful but now I have more questions than before. (Sigh) so I'm a summoner I guess something like a Necromancer? I'll look into it more later."
[DING! Now selecting race... generating data based off on the user's soul...DING! Race found that is compatible with the user's so- ERROR!! ERROR!! RACE IS ERROR!! ATTEMPTING TO FIX ERROR!!.....solution found Race has been selected.]
"W-wha? What's going on?!"
Suddenly I felt a splitting headache and my body felt like it was being stretched.
"Aghhh!"
As i screamed in agony and pain it soon ended just as fast as it came.
"W-what the hell was that for! Wait..."
I looked at my hands which were now pale grey, and felt the rest of my body which was the same.
"Huh this is cool I don't even know what the race is yet but still cool."
"So I've got some free time to kill so let's find out what I am now."
I say as I look around the white room and see a mirror.
"There we go let's see what i look like"
As i got up and walked over to the mirror i looked at my face and i was shocked to say the least. My face was the same but paler with slightly pointed ears, and my eyes were also now a deep purple with blue slits.
"Well damn I'm actually not that surprised but I guess this is good enough. Hmm wow! I look to be around 7ft tall man I'm a giant"
"Now then system can you show me my stats please?"

"Hmmm well that's kinda disappointing not that I was expecting to be the strongest in the world or something but still."
I say as I look over my stats and skills.
"Hmm, well the race is probably the reason for the health, and mana.
"System what is the True immortality ability? It sounds powerful and I'd rather not die if I can help it."
The panel popped up in front of me once more and there was the information I wanted.
"True Immortality: You are truly immortal, and cannot die even if you are destroyed, and killed your soul will return to the world and you will reform. If you lose your head or limbs you will grow back new ones. Also as you gain more power the regeneration will speed up and will become even harder to kill you.
"That's a bit OP don't you think, but it's nice to have a skill like this."
"Now then, what does the rest do."
I asked as i continued to read the other descriptions.
"True sight: See the true form of everything you look at, see the true colors and forms of people and objects.
"This one sounds cool as well and is definitely gonna help a lot.
"Death sense: See the aura of death that all living things give off.
"This one is going to be interesting."
"Now then last but not least the ultimate skill."
"Unlimited stacking: Unlimited stacking is a Ultimate skill that can stack any same thing Indefinitely.
"Ok now this one is broken, but it's also going to be very useful.
"Hmm, ok then Now, what to do."
I wonder as I think about the things i can do.
"I could try experimenting with my magic or maybe I can train my body."
I muse to myself as I sit in the white room.
"Or i can do both."
I say as a mischievous grin appears on my face.
"Time to do some experiments."
I say as i start walking in a random direction.
"Alright then i'll do it Hey, system can you tell me about shadow magic, and death magic?"
[Shadow Magic]
A type of magic that uses shadows as the source, and as the medium. Shadow magic was first discovered by accident when a mage tried to summon a shadow elemental.
"Wait there's magic based on accidents? I guess even in this world, magic isn't fully understood. But anyway, back to the system."
[Death Magic]
The opposite of life magic, it is magic that uses death, and the dead as the source and medium. Death magic was first discovered when a cleric resurrected the wrong body, and the reanimated body killed them.
"Huh... I guess this is going to be interesting."
"Alright, time to try some things out."
But before i could test anything, a notification came up.
[Please choose a starting weapon and armor set, please choose your starting gear wisely.]
"Starting gear huh. Well, i'm gonna need something to defend myself."
"System, show me the starting equipment."
"Now then, what should i get..."
(15 minutes later...)
"I think i'll go with these."
After a while of debating, i decided on what i was gonna use.
Weapon: Odachi Masayoshi
Armor: Leather Armor Set
I ended up choosing an odachi because the extra range could really help if i needed to keep something away. The leather armor set is just because i have a feeling that heavier armor would be more annoying than useful.
"System, equip me with my chosen items."
And after saying that, a box appeared, and out of the box came a full set of leather armor, and a 7 foot long sword.
"Oh my this is actually happening!"
I couldn't help but shout a little, after all, i was living a dream that almost no one had, getting sent into a new world!
"This is so exciting! I wonder what monsters i'll be fighting!"
After getting a grip on reality, i went to grab the sword, and it felt good in my hands. It was little Heavy, Probably due to my low strength stat and easy to wield, which is something that was very important.
"Well, now that's done. System, take me to the starting location."
A bright light envelopes my vision, and the next thing i know, i'm standing in a made of stone.
"Woah..."
It was amazing. The ceiling was at least 10 meters above me, and the room itself was 15 meters wide. And giant Double doors that had a unique emblem on it.
"Hmm, where do I go?"
As i was thinking that the doors suddenly opened and out came a beautiful woman.
"Greetings, young immortal. My name is Lilliana, a Receptionist for the undead faction."
She was tall, probably at least 6 feet, and had white skin, long blonde hair and yellow cat-like eyes. She was also wearing a formal-looking outfit.
"My name is Dante, it's nice to meet you."
I responded with a smile, and she smiled back at me.
"Well, Dante, welcome to the world of Evermore, or more specifically the Undead City. Please, follow me."
I followed Lilliana through the large doors, and was met with a giant city that seemed to stretch for miles, but it was empty.
"Wow..."
"I know right? It's a sight to behold."
Lilliana responded with a small chuckle.
"Anyway, Dante, you are a newly awakened immortal, and as such you will have to go through the. 'First steps' as we like to call it. Basically, first you will need to join a faction my I Recommend the undead faction. As usually a young immortal will be Teleported to a faction that best suits they're race or class."
"Hmm, what exactly does the Undead faction have to offer?"
I asked as I followed her down the stairs.
"Well, it has a lot of benefits, but the biggest is that the undead faction is home to the most diverse races and classes. You will find that there is no end to the number of different types of undead, and you will find many allies, and a place where you belong.
"Hmm, that sounds nice. Alright, I'll join the undead faction.
"Wonderful, please follow me and we will take care of your paperwork."
After following her for a few minutes, we arrived at a building that looked like a library.
"What are we doing here?"
I asked as I followed her.
"We're going to register you as an official member of the undead faction."
Lilliana responded, and then we went inside the building.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
A cheerful voice greeted us as we entered the library.
"Hello, Maria I'm here to register a new member."
"Alright, what's his name?"
"His name is Dante"
"Ok, just a second."
The woman then pulled out a book and started writing in it.
"Okay, Dante, please you're right hand here please."
She said and I complied.
"Ok, and we're done."
"Huh?"
"That's it, I just need you're name, and we're done.
"Um, okay."
"Great, thank you for joining the undead faction. I will your faction card ready when you return."
With that, the woman turned around and left.
"I guess that's it then."
"Yes, now please follow me, and we can get to the more interesting parts."
"Interesting parts? Like what?"
"You'll see."
We walked down the halls, and came to a large door that was decorated with carvings.
"Once again Welcome to the undead city. This is where all the undead reside, and it's where the faction in this region meets."
Lilliana opened the door, and we stepped out into a huge courtyard that was surrounded by tall buildings.
"This is amazing."
"I know, right? Now, please follow me and I will show you the various facilities."
I followed her through the courtyard, and she showed me a bunch of different places, including a training ground, a blacksmith, a armor shop, and even a restaurant.
"Now, for the last place, please follow me."
We continued walking until we came to a large gate with a blue cube floating in front.
"Here we are, the entrance to the newbie dungeon."
"Newbie dungeon?"
"Yes, a place where all new immortals are sent to train."
"Oh, sounds fun."
"Well for some others not so much."
"Huh, what do you mean by that?"
"You'll see, let's go back and get your faction card."
"Oh, right."
We went back to the library and got my card.
"Okay, Dante, I've registered you in the undead faction, and Now, it's time for you to explore the dungeon."
"Thanks, Maria."
I said goodbye to Maria and me and Lilliana headed back to the dungeon.
"So, what's this about the newbie dungeon?"
I asked Lilliana as we walked through the streets.
"Well, it's a place where new immortals are sent to train, and learn how to use their powers. You'll also meet many different types of monsters."
"Oh, that's sounds cool."
"Yes, and also you should check your faction card."
"Faction card? Oh, I forgot about that."
I pulled out the card and saw that there was a screen on it.
"Wow, it's like a smart phone."
"Yes, and it's very useful, now let's see what we have here."
Lilliana said as she started looking at the screen.
"Hmm you're full name is Dante Enver Avitus huh?"
"Yes, why is that weird?"
"No, not at all, it's just an interesting name, and you're rank is F."
"Is that bad?"
"No, not really, all new immortals are F rank, and they're not very strong. But don't worry, with hard work and determination, you can climb the ranks and become stronger."
"Alright, I'll do my best."
We reached the gate, and Lilliana stopped.
"This is the entrance, and the cube will teleport you to the first floor. Now, are you ready?"
"Yeah wait let me equip my armor and weapon first."
Inventory I said
Then a panel appeared and I put on the armor and grabbed the Odachi.
"There we go okay, I'm ready."
"Good, now remember to stay alert and be careful."
"Got it, thanks for your help, Lilliana."
"Don't mention it, and good luck."
"Okay, just put your hand on the cube and it will transport you."
I did as she said, and the next thing I knew, I was inside a cave.
"Alright, let's do this."
I said as I drew my sword, and began my journey through the dungeon.
