《Im a Divine Flesh Golem?》Answers and a Necromancer pt. 2

Hannah looked down at Alex, “Are you almost finished?” Alex stopped for a minute before looking up with a smile. “With this yes. But that doesn’t mean I’m done with you. There is still other tests to be conducted. Still so much for me to learn from you!”
Alex was ecstatic. “Hannah.” Penelope stated plainly and clearly. Hannah immediately shifted her attention to the Priestess before her. “Alexandria, you may conclude your physical examinations at a later hour.”
She said whilst looking at Alex still crouched next to Hannah’s right leg. Alex turned her head to Penelope for a moment, then her expression became pouting. Alex reluctantly released Hannah’s leg. Standing she walked over and returned to her chair, arms crossed as she mumbled to herself.
Hannah simply mouthed, ‘Thank you’, to Penelope who gave a warm smile in return. Hannah was finally able to sit in the comfortable plush red cushioned chair.
Penelope returned to her seat behind her desk next to the large window streaming light into her office. “Now let us go over and exchange some important information. I can see that you have leveled thrice since your arrival here. This is unsurprising.”
Hannah was a little thrown by the last line. “Unsurprising?” “Yes. It is often that on their first days in this world those like you level up more in a week than most people of this world do in 30 years.”
Hannah weighted that statement, ‘More than most people do in 30 years. That would mean most people don’t care about leveling or are too scared of the dangers to try. Wait a minute…’
“You said you could see my level? What skill is that?” Penelope gave a small chuckle, “I’m surprised that you have not already discovered this skill. It is the skill Observation Analyze.” Penelope waved her fingers in the air for a moment before a familiar small blue box appeared in the air before Hannah.

As Hannah slowly and methodically went over the description she marveled at what Penelope had just done. 'I wonder how she did that? How do i get this...' Then she felt it. like a window opening into her mind. new knowledge flowed in. It felt less substantial than it had the night before. But never the less a pleasant and ultimately rewarding experience. Hannah was greeted by several notices.

Hannah's pupil's dilated. She was speechless for a moment. She searched her mind for the words, but instead found how Penelope had show her that screen earlier. Hannah said, "I have something to show you." She waved her fingers in the air, touching screens only she could she. The screens she was seeing appeared before both Penelope and Alex.
"What the ****? ****? ****?!" Alex attempted to swear, but each time she attempted it found the words became something more akin to a birds song.

Penelope chuckled, "On these holy grounds, our lord Kensivar have forbidden swearing." Penelope smiled, while alex looked mildly confused and intriged, "****!"
Penelope turned to Hannah as her expression became more serious. "The Right Question. I have a similar skill but that is me asking my lord, Kensivar for answers. Yours appears far more...versatile. But i am worried by its mention of consequences. I would suggest that you be very careful with this skill. Put our lords divine gift of wisdom to good use, and don't get yourself killed by this skill."
'Even if my body is practically immortal, I can still die. Kensivar made a note that weaker people often die from this skill. So if i ask too much this will...' Hannah weighted that for a moment.
Alex remained silent chosing to simply observe for the moment. "Anyway it is time for you to gain full system access, you have undoubtably noticed something missing or strange in your status." "Is that what the question marks are? I don't have full system access?"
"Indeed. Almost every human in this world when they come of age is brought to a church like this one and is given a choice. Of the many options they are given i will try to condense it for you." Hannah leaned in not wanting to miss a single detail.
"They are given the three main options with several variations though they are not limited to a single option. One being access to what we refer to as the Roads. The roads were made by our lord and the many other gods that helped him to craft the system. One must work in order to walk down these roads. Most people choose this one. The roads are also called paths, trees, and so on. In the end they all share the fact that they are a means of forward motion in the system."
"Two was access to what i believe you would call the stat distribution panel. Practically everyoen chooses this one. Three is status locking." Hannah was thrown for a moment by that option.
"Status locking? Do you mean that they intentionally lock themselves out of the system?" Hannah asked, "Yes in a manner of speaking. Many of the systems blessings remain intact however, this option removes ones ability to perceive the... I believe you would call it a H.U.D., a heads up display. Anyway this option is for those who find the idea of the system suspicious." Penelope responded then sipped her tea for a moment before setting it back into place.
As much as she didn't like to admit it, she could understand that perspective. The system was certainly invasive. It had power beyond what most people in this world could grasp. Its was not actually all that surprising that some people people would choose to strip it away from themselves if only a little, were they were given the option. Penelope looked Hannah in the eye as she began a story.
"Our lord before he and...the other gods created the world they wandered the void. Occationally they would find other worlds." Penelope took a breath, she had not had too explain these things since she was a lowly nun who worked in the initiation process for the many people who came of age.
"Many times those worlds possessed systems like our own, or should i say ours is like theres. Anyway after some unknown amount of time the gods began to gather. Sharing stories of what they had seen. The worlds and their people. The different systems. So it was that our Lord Kensivar put forth that they should craft a world themselves and with it people to live there. He also said that they should take what they had learned from other systems and build their own. One that built upon all they had seen."
"The gods of good and those yet to be called the gods of evil worked together and created a system greater than any they had seen. This system took aspects of many other systems and added things they found lacking. Including one of our systems most important aspects." Penelope stood from her chair and leaned over her desk toward Hannah.
"Our system takes into consideration ones life experience in calculating their levels."

Vemödalen: From The Other Side
War is coming - And when it comes - And where it comes - And whence it comes - The living shall envy the dead One to carry their sword in the name of their goddess and lady, to protect their land and people against the threat of the wicked. They know their path to be the righteous one. One to roam the land, hunting for all apparitions, and be scorned by man and beast alike. They know their path to be an arduous one. One to wander the realm in search of power, to protect themselves and what they believe in. They know their path to be the only one. Writers note: The first chapter will set the standard in terms of mood for the remainder of the story. It also comes to no surprise to me that half the people who read the first part stop reading any further. It has quite a bit of the good ‘ol ‘ultra-violence’ mixed with a great deal of realism. As much as I could fit into it from my own knowledge and experience in the elite forces. The first few chapters will be slow, after, but starting from ‘Restless Destroyer’ the remainder of the world will start to open up, and when we hit ‘Adronitis’ the prologue is largely finished. The novel is well thought out and filled with hidden lore, culture, history. So even if my word choice appears random – it’s not. There is a reason why these chapters take as long as they do. Vermodalen is fantasy adventure, with magic and heroics in an as realistic setting as I could fit. Things are rarely what they seem, and the ugly nature of people bleed through the letters at the turn of every page. I hope you can give this story a fair chance, even if it isn’t immediately to your taste. Lastly, english isn't my first language. It isn't my second one either. So, if you find errors in grammer and spelling, wordplay and sentance building, do let me know, and you will be rewarded by a surge of dopamine that will be released inside your brain for helping someone whom you haven't even seen or heard.
