Chapter 1 - Chapter 1- My Death, The System, and A New World.

After a long day of trying to find new work I'm exhausted. Getting in my car and heading home I noticed too late the derailing train heading my way as I was thinking about what to do about work. With a sick crunch and a slight feeling of pain I was gone.

[Year ???]

After an unknown amount of time I stir awake. I'm floating in a black void. All around me is darkness like a void. I look down and see my silhouette, a white outline, a stark contrast to the blackness around me. Am I dead? Then I hear a ding followed by a grey panel with a gold border.

[Ding]

[System online]

[Welcome host to the Tree System. I'm the AI of your system but I won't talk often unless it's life threating or a question directed to me. As you've guessed, you're dead. You're currently a tree around 10 years old. You've been in something akin to a coma for the past 10 years, and due to reaching 10 you have been awakened by the system. You can live freely. Be a hero, a villain, or just live as you please. To see the rest of the system, say Menu. Good luck]

I sit there, well more like float, for a second to process what I've been told, and what has happened. Coming out of it I say 'Menu'

[Status, Inventory, Map, Gacha, Settings]

I click Setting and go through them quickly turn on/off things that I think should be turned on or off namely Auto loot. Next I look at the Map to see where I'm at. Unsurprisingly it seems I'm in the middle of a forest. On the map a blue dot is shown, which I assume is me, with a radius of a mile being show. I open my Status then look into the Inventory. It has a [Gacha Ticket] and nothing else, but it seems it has infinite space which is nice.

Skills- Absorption]

Looking over the Status I feel like it isn't a lot. Then I use the [Gacha Ticket] getting the skill [Life Sense]. As I acquire the new skill it feels like a new sense. I see the blades of grass, the trees around me, even the critters running around the forest in a greater clarity than before. It's not quite what it was like when I had eyes, but its better then relying on the map or looking at the void like realm I float in.

I inspect the two skills, [Absorption] allows me to absorb organic and inorganic matter and use whatever I absorbed even gaining skills or abilities if they have them. [Life Sense] as you could've guess allows me to sense life within a center range. With everything about the system settled it's time to look around my new home for the foreseeable future. As I concentrate on the surrounding flora and fauna around me I gain the [Observation] skill. Doing it again but with the help of the skill I gain different results.

[Mushroom]

[Horned Rabbit]

[Poisonous Mushroom]

[Apple Tree]

Going further and observing the [Poisonous Mushroom], [Apple Tree], and the [Horned Rabbit] further I see their Status.

[Poisonous Mushroom

Skills-[Neurotoxin]

Description- A neurotoxic mushroom with a flat red cap with white dots on it.]

[Apple Tree

Skills-[Apple production]

Description- A fruit tree that produces apples.]

[Horned Rabbit

Skills-[Dash]

Description- A rabbit that has a horn in-between its eyes used for offense. Still a herbivore.]

Trying to move my roots, or anything really, I try to go to the [Poisonous Mushroom]. Eventually after 15 or so minutes of trying nothing happens. It seems it isn't easy to move as a tree. The most I achieved was swaying my trunk slightly and the crown of me a little more then a tree could do normally.

With little else to do besides waiting. I just bask in the warmth of the sun and photosynthesize.
