"I need help."
A new screen appears, apparently you don't need to be on the main menu, to open the options.
[System: prefix any question, with the word 'question' and this system will answer within its ability.]
...
I take a deep breath.
"Question- where am i?"
[Answer: You current location is South of lake Morbius, on the Dark continent.]
I blink.
That sounds awfully familiar, in fact frightfully familiar. Like a certain place, in a certain anime, I've probably watched a few too many times.
"Question- Is this the dark continent of hunterxhunter, by chance?"
[Answer: Correct, the manga and anime hunterxhunter is certainly based on this planet]
I can feel sweat sliding down my temple, as my heart has suddenly decided to become a drummer. Now, knowing I'm pretty much dead meat, and that it's in fact very likely, that this forest is filled with gigantic monsters that won't even notice if they step on me.
So there's one thing I need to know, urgently.
"Question- What does remaining invulnerability mean?"
[Answer: The system has given you a year of perfect invulnerability, to make your long term survival more probable.]
Relief courses through my mind.
'At least I'm not completely unprotected, as I pretty much don't have any strength to speak of. Though even if I was strong, it wouldn't mean anything here. Who knows what sort of monsters are considered small critters here'
'Wait, there's probably monsters here that can eat me without even noticing, and if I can't die, will I just suffocate in its stomach, until I finally come out the other end? What about if I get stuck in a hole, or a crater or maybe the bottom on the ocean?
I need to know how to get stronger, or at least get the capability to get away'
"Question- What is the job 'Quiz host'"
[Answer: 'Quiz host' is a profession where you create and host quizzes, you choose the questions, and the contestants. The contestants will after the quiz, be given a reward or punishment based on their answers and will then obtain the privilege to view the next quizzes through a live stream. Depending on how the quiz is rated by the system, you will obtain points for the shop, a F to S-tier random reward and an optional reward.]
'That's unique, I don't think I've read any manga with a system like that. Anyway, I just need to make quizzes in order to survive, probably.... wait!'
"Question- Won't these quizzes change the timeline!?"
[Answer: Correct, the more change to the timeline, caused by the information given in the quiz, the higher the quiz will be rated.]
'...'
'Doesn't that mean, that in order to survive I'll be releasing tons of butterflies into this world, possibly causing immense chaos, that I have no way of controlling.
What if I get Gon or some other important character killed, the consequences of that is not something I can predict at all. Though I guess luckily this isn't a world which survival depends on the main character, like so many others'
"Maybe I can put the blame on whatever caused me to be here, giving me such a do or die situation. Though, I don't know if that even makes sense, as it's still a choice"
I shake my head, looking towards the river. Thinking of clearing my head a bit, I stand and approach the water.
'It's odd, I haven't seen nor heard any animals, despite there being a water source here, not even birdsong. Maybe they are hiding in the grass, though I don't think I'm capable enough to make anything on the dark continent hide.'
I look at the water, and my reflection looks back.
I frown, im wearing the same ankle length blue dress, that i fell asleep in back home, not caring to change at the time because of the cold, but nobody would sleep with stockings on, so I'm unfortunately barefoot. while my hair is the same brown color, and my skin is pale like always. My eyes, that last I saw them, where a brownish green, that now has somehow turned pale white, as if all color has leaked away.
"Question- why is my eyes white?"
[Answer: it's a side effect of the transfer.]
"That's Extremely vague!"
'Aah don't think about it, don't think about it...'
I splash some water on my cheeks, forcefully moving my attention toward the shop.
