"No, No, not there. Over there. Not there, There! Arg, listen to me will you? Hmm, yes that's the spot. Right there, that's sooooooo much better."
"..."
"What? What? You don't like the way I'm commanding the slime? Not like you could do any better yet, you were born not even 30 min ago. Well whatever, the slime is finally in the path you made to the outside. We can let it hunt some LF for us now! I can't wait, I wonder how much it will get."
On one of the cave walls, there was a 30cm square hole that started at floor level and had a 40 degrees incline heading up and eventually came out of the side of a hill in the middle of a forest. There was currently a slime slowly oozing through it. The slime completely filled up the part of the hole that it was into the point that it was like a cork and not even air would be able to get past it, but this didn't slow it down in the least.
"I may have only been born as a [Dungeon Master] 30 min ago but I still am a reincarnator, which means I still have some idea what to do." grumbled David.
"Hehe, hehe. Yes, I'm sure you do. But look it's about to exit. I wonder what it's like out there. I may have been created from the soul of the crystal you're in now and took thousands of years to form, but I have never seen the outside of this hollow cave in the rocks that doesn't even have the smallest crack leading outside. I'm so excited."
"Wow that must have been so boring for you, no wonder your so hyper now that you can move around. But I have one question for you how are we going to control what the slime does once it leaves here?"

"Simple just tell it what to do?"
"How, it's not like I can go over there to tell it what to do. Until I have enough LF to get myself a body that can actually move I can't... well move."
" Huh? Huh? What are you talking about? You have already moved around in your space. If you use some magic you can move your consciousness anywhere in your own space to look around. And your monsters come from you so they have a small part of your space around them even if they leave the main part of your space. To bad week ones like the slime can't go very far from your space without dying."
"Ah, so that's how it was. I was wondering what was going on at the time. If I remember even when I looked at my stats before I was missing some MP. But what is this "space" you keep talking about? I think I know what you mean by now but I just want to make sure of the details."
"Space, space. You mean I forgot to tell you what your space is? Doh, that's one of the most important things for you to know about at this point. The space is you, you are the space."
"... And? I think I need a little more than that."
"Sigh, sigh, you are so dumb. The space is part of your consciousness, your crystal is where your soul is kept and your space is where your consciousness is. You can grow the size of your space when you have more MP. MP can be used to permeate the area around your crystal to spread your space. Within your space, you can use any of your [Dungeon Master] skills but you can't use them outside your space. You can use magic outside your space if you have any that can usually be used at a distance, but your stupid so you don't have any right now, not even the simplest of spells to light a campfire or make a light breeze. But enough of that boring stuff I want to see what the outside is like! I Can use your space to see too so I'm going to look through the slime now."

"Ok, I'm going to too. I just need a sec to figure it out."
It was at this time that the slime had finally emerged from the tunnel. The tunnel's exit was near the top of a large tree covered hill in the large forest. From the tunnel, all that could be seen were trees and other plants for as far as could be seen. Some of the trees looked familiar to David like some trees that looked like birch and maple but there was a major difference, they had enormous sizes compared to the ones back on earth, some of the maple like trees had leaves the size of a normal human man. Some of the Fir trees had needles the size of an arm. There were also smaller ones around but there were also some strange trees and plants that David had no Idea what they were. One such plant was about hip height but it had blue bark and red/purple foliage the shape of triangles. This plant was all over the hill that the tunnel emerged from.
"Pretty, pretty. It's so pretty out here. Ahh why do cores have to be born in such a dank place, I wish I could have spent those thousands of years out here instead. Oh well, I'm here now. Time To get some LF!"
"Ok I want a body to explore this place too, so let's get some LF."

Now, after twenty-seven years of distinguished service from "birth," he is being honorably discharged into civilian life. The only problem is that "civilian life" isn't exactly livable for a glorified brain in a jar. How does a couple pounds of grey matter surrounded by five tons of life support systems and enough co-processing enhancements to take over the planet enjoy an early retirement when he's surrounded by overzealous politicians, corporate spies, and foreign agents after military secrets?
