The World Seems Realistic But Why Do I Have A Leveling System? Chapter 1
Advertisement
Ring Ring Ring!
Within a single and quiet room, an alarm suddenly started ringing as the faint sunlight could be seen peeking from the covered window. As the alarm continued ringing, the girl on the bed took a while to respond before twitching, and slowly, a listless soft-looking hand appears from underneath the blanket as it grabbed onto the clock on the table near the bed and turned it off as silence returned to the room.
The girl holding still onto the blanket finally opened her beautiful eyelid that's covering the normal-looking chocolate brown eyes before gazing blankly in the air and finally stopped at the clock, which showed the time was 06:01 AM. The girl finally stood up but not before rubbing her sleepy eyes while complaining the unfairness in her life on the way to the bathroom.
"I'm still sleepy... I still didn't have enough sleep. School should just disappear from Earth for all I care..."
Her steps to the bathroom were very slow and sluggish, and when she comes to her senses, she was already submerged half of her naked body into the warm bathtub. The girl seems to be enjoying her warm bath as one could see a satisfied expression on her face; she couldn't help but release a sigh and said.
"Ah~ This is the blessing of life."
It didn't take her long as the sleepiness was washed away along with the bit of dirtiness off her body. After about 20 minutes have passed, the girl left the bathroom with bathrobe covering her body from the chest to the upper thighs. As the girl walked toward the mirror, one could see bits of leftover waters that have not been wiped fully around her neck as it dripped down, slowly fell around the middle of the mountain, and disappeared.
When the girl sat in front of the mirror, she immediately turned on the hairdryer and aimed it towards her wet silky black hair. It took the girl around 10 minutes for her to fully prepared herself, and suddenly she could hear a shout coming from downstairs.
"Sheila! Come eat your breakfast, or you will be late for school!"
"I'm coming, Mom!"
Sheila replied before picking up the bag on the floor near a table and unzip it as she looked inside the bag one last time, making sure she didn't miss anything before heading downstairs.

Tap Tap Tap!
When Sheila arrived in the kitchen, she saw a mature-looking woman with identical silky black hair like her, wearing a pink apron putting the food on the dining table. When the woman noticed her presence, she smiled before opening her mouth and said.
"You're finally here, now hurry and go wash your hands."
Sheila nodded her head in response and headed toward the faucet to wash her hands clean before sitting on the chair at the dining table. Her eyes gleamed when Sheila saw that today's breakfast is actually pancakes covered in honey. If this had been a 2D world, Sheila would have been drooling nonstop. In a hurry, Sheila picked up the fork before slowly savoring the pancakes and the sweet honey taste in her mouth.
"Yum! So delicious~."
Sara couldn't help but put a doting smile on her face at her daughter's flattering words as she watched the latter eating in relish. Noticing that her mother was staring at her, Sheila stopped for a moment and said.
"Don't just watch, you should eat too, Mom!"
"Yes, yes, I will."
Sara replied to her daughter as she followed up by eating, though she couldn't stop herself from occasionally staring at her daughter. Because Sara was eating slowly, Sheila had already finished hers before getting up and headed to the faucet to wash her mouth. But before she left the house, Sheila didn't forget to bid farewell to her mother.
"I'm leaving first, Mom!"
"Sure, go on. Watch out on your way to school, okay?"
"I got it!"
...
Ding!
While Sheila was on the way to school, her steps come to a stop when she heard a notification sound from her phone as she pulled out the phone inside her pocket. After unlocking the phone by inserting the password, Sheila immediately browses with the expectation to see a new unread message but only to frowned when she found nothing. Sheila looked up before proceed to looked around her surroundings, searching for another presence, but no soul could be seen as she was the only one who walked along the peaceful street. Not finding what she was looking for, Sheil frowned deepen, but it turned into a shock when she looked at the screen on her phone.
There was a new application with an icon that looks straight out of the RPG game sitting near the gallery app on the homescreen. As far as she remembers, Sheila didn't download any games yesternight before she went to sleep. She had spent most of her time till late at night playing videogames, and so her mobile phone should have been sitting quietly at the table near her PC. Her finger unconsciously moved toward the icon, but Sheila managed to control herself from pressing onto the unidentified app. She still didn't know how it got into her phone; it's also possible it was a virus that makes her cautious around it.

But the curiosity gets to her as her finger slowly pressed onto the game-like icon. But before that, Sheila was already prepared as she had backup all the important files to an online site, in case it ended up being a virus. Once her finger clicked on the app, the screen of the phone turned dark, and while she was feeling anxious as if the darkness from within the screen is trying to suck her into it, a sudden wall of texts appeared.
『 Welcome, NewUser.

『 Welcome to the Leveling System! 』
"What?"
Looking at the welcome notification on the screen of her phone, Sheila was left dumbfounded.
...
While the teacher was busy teaching on the front, most of the students were 'earnestly' listening to the subject, but not all of them could keep up with it. Among those groups, Sheila was currently having headaches and couldn't keep her eyes off the screen of her phone. After she was notified about the whole welcome thing, she had put the phone in her pocket and walked toward the school while deep in thought.
Is it a new type of promotion game? Sheila thought inside her mind. When she reached the classroom, Sheila give her greeting to her best friend before moving on to her seat. When she saw that no one keep their eyes on her, Sheila pulled out the phone from her pocket and hide it by leaving the book standing as she put her chin on the table and browse her phone, from the viewpoint of others, Sheila looked like she was reading a book in a lazy manner.
Sheila knows not if the app was a new way of promotion of a game or something else entirely; the only thing she could is to check the app herself before figuring out what it is. But one thing that keeps her being on alert is that, Sheila didn't remember when did she ever install the app. She had never seen such app in her phone before, not until today that is. Before she clicked on the app, Sheila went to the Mobile Store where it stored all sorts of apps in there and tried searching of anything with 'Leveling System,' the end result was disappointment as nothing come up other than MMORPGs. But that will be explain later on.
After her research ended up only wasting her time, Sheila ended up clicking on the unknown app that has no name with an icon that seems straight out of RPGs. Again, she was greeted by the same welcome message, but when she scroll up the screen with her finger, she finally saw something new.
『 Welcome to Leveling System!
Host Status: Unlocked!
Quest: Unlocked!

Shop : (Locked)
Lottery : (Locked) 』
None of them make sense to her, but one thing that she knows is that the and function seems to be unlocked while the other is gray out as locked. As a gamer girl, Sheila understood what the status, quest, well everything in there; she knows what it means. Although Sheila was still on high alert, she still want to know what will show up when she clicked on the .
The reality told her to not go further while her gaming sense was flickering intensely when her eyes saw it for the first time; She is conflicted about what should she do in this situation. But it didn't take long before her gaming sense overwhelming everything as her finger clicked on the .
What she saw next caused her to feel even more dumbfounded.
