A young man sat up in his bed rapidly, his arms shooting forward as if to push something away, and his eyes looking around frantically. The man's breathing slowed, eventually calming down fully, he promptly began observing his surroundings.
The room he found himself in consisted of a large bed in the center of the room, facing a pair of double doors. There was a desk to the man's right stacked with books and discarded papers and a jacket with a strange emblem draped over the chair. This man in the bed is named Savras, upon his awakening, he realized that he had died and reincarnated, still feeling the lingering pressure upon his chest from the car that killed him, Savras allowed a stream of memories to enter his mind.
It appeared that his name was also Savras in this world, an orphan from the Augrila family, a very wealthy and prominent force in it's world. Unfortunately, all of Savras immediate family died in an accident, leaving Savras in the care of butlers and maids for a large portion of his life. Although Savras was an orphan, he still came from a prestigious family which meant that he was required to be persistent and hard working in a multitude of subjects.
After consuming this information, Savras stood up to observe himself in the bathroom mirror. Entering the bathroom he noticed a tiled shower enclosed by a glass panel, along with a large tub and a sauna. After observing the room, Savras looked in the mirror. His eyes locked with a pair of dark green pupils. Looking up from his dilating eyes, he was met with a chiseled face, framed by a mane of thick curly black hair. His body was lean, muscle moving visibly beneath his skin. There was a kind of elegant aura to his appearance, a form of beauty that could not be described easily.
Savras turned his head as he heard the doors to his room open, behind them there was a man of average height with short, slicked back hair. If Savras recalled correctly, this must have been his butler and main caretaker, Gerard. Gerard had been charged with taking care of and raising Savras in order to be the perfect inheritor of his family's legacy. The man stood there with a neutral look on his face, holding a platter with eggs and toast on it.
"Sir, your breakfast is ready. I have also prepared your schedule for your day. Today is a rather rigorous day, mostly academic classes you will be attending so be prepared."
Savras was caught off guard when he heard this information. As he was just getting used to being in a new body and new world, dealing with a long day of classes was the last thing he wanted to do.
"Hey Gerard, thanks for the breakfast but do I really have to attend classes today?"
The question seemed to surprise the butler, as if Savras should have known not to ask this question.
"It is mandatory that you attend your classes whenever they are in session. Now, I have to cut this conversation short as I have business in the east wing. I will leave you to eat your breakfast and prepare for your busy day."
The butlers voice took on a more serious and strict tone when as he said this. It seemed that Savras was meant to take his studying seriously.
"fuck"
Savras cursed as Gerard exited the room, looking over the schedule that the butler handed him, completely ignoring the breakfast placed on his desk.
1. Advanced Calculus
2. General Relativity
3. Phonetics
4. Advanced Theoretical Grammar
5. Lunch Break
6. Latin
Seeing that there was no way out of this, Savras accepted his fate and decided to prepare for his day by getting in the shower.
....
Stepping into the shower and letting the hot water envelop him, Savras closed his eyes. He thought back to his death. He had been working in his uncles mechanic shop, laying under a car performing an oil change when the car fell on top of him and crushed him. As he was reminiscing on his past life a sound reverberated in his mind, resembling the tone of a gong.
"Dong!"
"Congratulations Savras Augrila for awakening your Inner Oracle!"
Savras reeled back in surprise at the voice in his head, he almost thought he was hearing things, until he heard the voice once again."
"I am the Inner Oracle, I was designed to help you become the most versatile in a range of all things including fighting, magic, swordplay, and any other talent you want to develop further."
Savras read this statement in amazement. There was no way this Inner Oracle could really do these things. Thinking of how to interact with the Inner oracle, Savras deduced that he should ask the Inner Oracle about itself.
"Inner Oracle, what features do you have available to me?"
Savras asked tentatively, shaking from the excitement of this new ability.
"System host is currently able to access the status page, the quest page, and the dimensional shop page. Just think about which you would like to view and it will appear in front of you."
Hearing the systems suggestion, Savras decided to view his status. He thought the word status and a blue screen appeared floating in the air infant of him. It had an image of Savras on it, along with his name and other details.
[Savras Augrila]
[Age - 17]
[Height - 6'1]
[Vitality - 10]
[Strength - 10]
[Dexterity - 11]
Titles - [None]
[Skill(s) - Swordsmanship (Lvl2)
- Speech (Lvl7)
- Hand To Hand (Lvl2)]
Savras observed his stats, realizing that they appeared to be average for a 15 year old. His swordsmanship and hand to hand combat skill were both level two, allowing much room for him in the future. The next thing that Savras checked was the quest panel.
[Quests]
(Current - None)
"Quests will be given to you at random, but some quests can be triggered."
When Savras saw this rather empty tab, he decided to move on and think about it later.
Switching over to the shop panel, an interface appeared in front of Savras, displaying multiple deals and discounts. In the top right of the screen there was a box that said zero in it, Savras quickly assumed that this was the counter for whatever currency is used in the shop.
Savras scrolled through the multitude of items and abilities listed, his mouth watering at the prospective powers he could obtain. He saw abilities like shadow step, elemental surge, and arcane shield.
After observing all of the functions of the system, Savras stepped out of the shower and dressed himself. After brushing his teeth, Savras went and ate his now cold breakfast. While he was eating, a notification from the system appeared.
"Ding - Quest activated!"
[Quest(Pity)] - (Attend all of your classes for the day with dilligence and seriousness.)
{Reward - 500 Oracle Coins}
Savras smiled at this notification. He now had incentive to actually attend his classes now that he had a mission from the Inner Oracle. With this new mission on his mind, Savras finished his breakfast, exited his room and headed towards his first class. .
