So basically this is Maze Runner, mixed with Kill the Sun mixed with some random novels I've read and games I've played, so Enjoy! Also this is my first time writing so I'm sure it'll be filled with plot holes and inconsistency and stuff, but I hope you'll enjoy it regardless. . . . Also although I posted it, Im still fixing a lot of errors and spelling mistakes and stuff, I was kinda nervous that I would somehow delete all of them if I didnt post the chapters, sorry.

As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18 she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore. That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that. The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go. ############################## The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm, Everyone has a level, status and even skills are a common thing. If your stats are good you can even become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters creatures and things that the regular world is missing such as magic. The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream. It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge. The rhythm might be a bit slow for some but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it. ###############################
