《Last Grace: The Apex of Another World》Chapter 2 - System
Advertisement
The sound of the forest accompanied his rousing body. Nap time was over. His eyelids stirred, repeatedly closing and opening due to the starch contrast between the light, and the darkness. The moonlight finally fell through as he found himself awake as the day was nearing its second to last phase.
He straightened his body’s form earning his body a great deal of pain. Sleeping on the cold ground was a stupid idea. He was going to have to move sooner or later. His wounds needed to be tended to, sleep would not be its remedy. Anything which possessed medicinal properties. He needed herbs, even if the wound was closed enough. It would be able to get him to stand, not for long he didn't need that long if he was where he thought he was. In another world!
He spent the time that he had got up on the screen. If this was like Earth's games then he would be able to do something about this pain - maybe.
‘Status’ he thought in his head.
The screen popped up, slowly for some odd reason. Whatever the reason it had better of been good for making him wait.
Though it was not like he was going to end up getting an answer.

“Hoh, so that is what it is! That makes this easier then.” He said, while staring off into the distance. Saying “close” the blue screen went away and a few slim ones appeared in its place.
Your body is foreign to this world. As such your body's composition will be forcefully adapted to the atmosphere of this world.
You have acquired the passive skill [Otherworlder] for being of a foreign world to this one.
You have been injured! You have low health, you need to heal quickly otherwise you will die.
You have gained the passive skill [Pain Resistance] for experiencing a lot of pain. Your body has begun to adapt to the amount of pain and reduces the sensitivity of your nerves that handle pain.
You have gained the passive skill [Physical Endurance] for not only experiencing a large amount of pain, but from recovering from it as well. [Grit] has been given as well for thinking little of the pain.
Soon he was distracted by another blue screen that was brought into his vision. It displayed a series of variables of the terms found often in rpgs. Along with his name, and other interesting things.

That would explain the dinging noises. If this is all true, then he was in for some fun times. Some fun times indeed. He does wonder if these stats are low, they might be, then again the mysterious author of “the system” might be planning something, making us grow?

The reason is what he could not figure out. He could always figure that out later, right now he would solely worry about getting stronger. It doesn't seem like there are any herbs that he could use to relief some of his pain. He has to do this on his own. For his own sake.
Lucifer stood to his feet and staggered out of the cave. Relieving a notable amount of stress on his joints by placing a non reciprocating wall as the host for his exhaustion.
He would need to heal as best he could by minimizing his movement and maximizing his healing abilities so he needed to level, quickly if he could help it!
Lifting his weight away from the wall he exhaustively exited the cave. He did not have long. He was excited to try out the system and to rid himself of such heavy fatigue so he put a pep in his step and scurried into the stretch of land nearest to him. The beginning of the forest.
He wheezed, spitting out blood as he walked into the expansive lush forest that was sure to be home to something that could help him.
With his recently attained vigor, he wobbled out onto the shore of the forest. Leaning on trees when he could. Every so often and without him noticing he heard a dinging noise.
Which may be the factor that would save his life. His old life was however off limits for obvious reasons.
For he would do this with his own strength, and fly higher than - well anyone! If only he had his wings again no one would best him.
Right now he did not have the ability to fly, he was hardly worried if anything that could fly came after him as he knew their disadvantages. “Let's get this fucking over with.” Taking a deep breath he set out in the darkening sky.
The sky would bend to his will!

Sol-int
Logical consciousness before birth ,however impossible with the udder lack of brain cells was quite the gift. One could see it as a curse, stuck alone in a dark and near silent womb for months with little need for rest. Phycological torture for those who couldn't grapple with the thought of such a miraculous time. After all if such awareness was available before the proper Brain matter was grown them how would one gain consciousness? Well there is only one simple and miraculous word to describe it. Magic. Whether it was a highly organized magic system, a chaotic mash of dark arts, or some divine intervention it could be considered to be magic non the less. And magic? Well one had plenty of time in the womb to discover and train it. And that was exactly what one would do if they found themselves in such a situation! Thanks to WifuLabs for the cover.

Forced Development (What does it truly mean to live a fulfilling life?)
To get things started I would like to admit that this story does not bring much new to the table when it comes to the over-saturated Litrpg genre in terms of things like mechanics and power systems. Then what exactly am I trying to bring to the table with this work? A nice slow-paced novel about people maturing and growing older think of it as the re: zero or jobless reincarnation of Litrpgs. A story that tries to take into consideration how a worldwide system would affect the economics and culture of a world. A story that is much more character-focused than the typical heavy progression-focused novels this genre is known for. The RPG system, like any good power system, is there to actually explore the themes of the story and not just as a plot device for characters to get stronger. This is a story where we will see the growth of the Mc from being a baby to when he dies of old age. With plenty of heart-racing actions and intriguing plot developments along the way. Exploring themes like; What does it mean to improve at something and what does it mean to mature as a person? How does magic, the constant threat of monsters and people so much stronger than the average joe that they can destroy countries affect one's culture both on the micro and the macro scale? How people are affected by the culture in general? Generational trauma Nature vs Nurture Talent vs hard work What is morality, society, and people's opinions on both? What does it mean to be human and what does it mean to be alive in the context of a world with multiple sapient species vastly different from one another in basic biology? All these questions are going to be explored from multiple angles using the system as a catalyst for those discussions. So if any of does questions sound interesting to you what are you waiting for, I'm sure you are going to love this story. PS - Chapter come out every Friday at about the same time.
