Dante dreamed a dreamless sleep. When he awoke he found his surroundings to have changed. He was in a comfortable bed, in a very outdated looking, single person room.
On each side of his bed next to the wall he saw a night stand. Upon both of them were identical lamps. They both looked very much like oil lamps. Except instead of a flame there were thumb sized pieces of yellowish crystal. Other than that they gave off a similar amount of light to a normal oil lamp.
There was a similar item embedded into the ceiling with two yellow pieces of crystal pointing in opposite directions. However, they were dull, seemingly inactive.
It looked like the room of an Inn you might visit if you and your friends were playing DND. Which is to say, it looked like it was from the middle ages. Aside from the magical item of course.
Dante sat up and noticed he was not wearing any shoes or socks. "That's right I wasn't wearing any when i got brought in here." Dante said as he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth in frustration. He moved and placed his feet onto the floor expecting it to be cold. He was pleasantly surprised to find it was actually warm. "Heated flooring, nice." Dante's face taking an expression of admiration for a moment before becoming one of pondering.
Dante thought about it for a moment. He remembered that a system store had been mentioned at some point. "Store"
A large window popped up before him. It was much like one of the stores you would find in a MMO game. He examined the store page for a moment. At the top of the page he found a symbol of a magnifying glass, 'There is the search function.' Beneath it there were tabs. Seven tabs, bordered by arrows on either side. Out of curiosity he pressed the arrow leading right, causing the seven tabs to zoom off to the left, only to be replaced by seven new tabs.

'Ok, so there are electronic items, magical items, books, abilities? Skills, information, and medical?" Dante pondered each of them, "So when the system said it was assimilating the media, it must have meant all earth's information. So, wait a minute... Status!" Dante exclaimed in excitement.
Why had he not thought of this sooner? 'Probably the shock and then the fuzzy mind due to mana exhaustion.' Dante thought for a moment.

Star God
An ancient, ageless entity of magic intertwines with the essence of a tribal hero and a god is born. In a land where the worship of any entity is banned and punishable by mass-execution, the young and idealistic deity must come to terms with the ugliness of humanity, and find a way for his flock to survive, and maybe even thrive. A young man born into a mountain tribe treads the path of a hero, but he must learn the extent to which he would go to keep his people and their fledgling god safe and happy. Enemies are everywhere, and to defend their way of life, they must learn to harness the power of magic. Others are ahead of them in this regard, so they must act fast if they are to survive. A Xianxia-esque magic system, but with a focus on Western-style spellcasting and mysticism. This is more or less a deconstruction of classical fantasy and pantheons. The story focuses on two main characters; a God and a hero who serves him. Kingdom building themes are prevalent. If you like it, please remember to rate and review.
