《Rise of the Forgotten》Ch.11 System, Stats., and Sleep
Advertisement
So far the system was simple. It also let me know that it could access data systems that I had authorized use for. It could also record data and allow access to a system made interface that had multiple uses, from entertainment to scientific papers.(essentially the internet but he doesn't know about that since his people had a different name for it)
I then checked the other tabs of the system. They were: Statistics, Known Skills, Organization, and Available Forms. I felt like that last one was made for species like mine. Statistics had multiple stats such as: Power, Dexterity, Constitution, Endurance, UE Available, Mentality, Soul Strength, and Attributes.
Power is the raw power that my muscles could produce(how fast and powerful he is). Dexterity is how adeptly I could use my muscles(better dexterity means better use of muscles). Constitution determined how durable my body is and how good I can resist poison and the like. Endurance determined how well my body recovered and how much stamina I have. UE Available is the amount of UE I had absorbed and how effective I could use it(not everything uses the same amount of UE when used). This can be augmented by meditation techniques. Mentality is how my mind processes information, remembers said info., and uses it. Soul strength determined how quickly I could absorb UE and my will power. Attributes can tell you your characteristics and talents, it also tells you your affinities. It's dictated by the soul.
Known Skills are all of the skills I currently know. It also includes my proficiency with these skills compared to the systems data. It also categorized from most used to least used. It also contained all known uses of these skills and how to use them.
Organization was basically any organization or government that I was a part of. It included my rank or position in the organization, it also acted as a form of identification both within and out of the organization. Apparently if I had a position with subordinates it told who they were and what they do. It also let others that had anything that could let them see what the system displays(like glasses or contacts or artificial eyes), see your rank. It also lets others not within your organization know what organization you are in if you let it.

Available forms allowed me to know what forms I had available to me. It also told me the biology and inherent abilities of these forms, and showed me the forms of others that I could copy.(like a character select and character customization)
These are the options available to me currently. I guessed that there could be more available to me when I got to the Librarium. These options right now are extremely helpful to me. This allowed me to have a visible reference of things rather than a just mental recall. While a mental recall is immensely helpful, having a more physical reference helps greatly on organization and reference. Also not having to go through a vast amount of information in my head and instead search for it in a system can greatly help with time.
Currently the Second, Third, and Fifth are incredibly proud of their creation. The Second laid the idea, the Third upgraded and improved it, while the Fifth named and gave it essentially a reason to work and be loyal. All of it culminated in this amazing piece of advanced and ever improving A.I..
My current stats looked like this:
Power: 235 (Speed 235 k/h and he could basically lift a car)
Dexterity: 100% (basically how much he can freely move his body and control his strength, right now he can fully control his strength)
Constitution: Bullet proof and slightly energy resistant
Endurance: ~24 hours of strenuous activity before limit
UE Available: 20,000/20,000 units; 75% efficiency
Mentality: Eidetic memory, efficient absorption and use of info
Soul Strength: Nearly unbreakable will, 100 units of UE absorbed per second while meditating 50 units per seconds passive absorption. This is added onto meditation absorption.
Attributes: Main: Abyss, Celestial, Production, Sovereign, Draconian, Spatial, Combat, Eternal.
Secondary: Mostly everything else

I am strong compared to the average citizen, but not a person with a better meditation technique, experience, and age. I am confident that anyone else my age couldn't compare. Except maybe a deity, but they didn't count. I also felt like most people with my physical appearance( people that look like 19-20 years of age) also couldn't compare, though I couldn't be sure. Elswen told me that most people started their UE training as early as possible, though most actually started around 10 years of age. Children get distracted quite easily after all.
After finishing checking the system and its options I then started to connect Aldion to my chip so that he is always with me. Always. The connection was successful and I fully connected Aldion to the chip. I then asked him to explore the system and everything in it and copy any and all available data. After that I left the ship to buy some supplies for me and the ship. The system also has a handy mapping ability. Aldion uploaded the schematics and map of the whole station to this mapping so I could effectively navigate.
A couple hours later and a lot of back and forth between the shops and my ship I was back at my ship. I now had supplies to last me more than 2 years alone. Humanis metabolism is extremely efficient, there is little waste produced. I also got some more raw supplies and fabrication supplies.
I then decided to sleep for the first time in my life. Now that I look back, sleeping might have been helpful to my state of mind. Hindsight is always 20/20 as the humans say. Aldion has been helpful in filling me with some sayings in order to fit in. He also decided to fill me in on their history and popular media. He also let me in on general Galactic history and media. I now could generally fit in.
I then laid down under my covers on my bed. As I laid there my body began to relax. My mind also began to relax and unwind. I closed my eyes and laid there. I quickly fell unconscious. I laid there asleep as Aldion watched me and the surroundings, keeping me safe. His digital faces smiling, while watching me, and serious, while watching the surroundings. He was like a parent watching his child and keeping them safe.

Gaming The System
Jack desperately wants someone to believe him. He is seeing blue boxes that seem to know everything about him. He reveals himself to his family and neighbors, only to learn that some things are better kept quiet. At least he isn't alone. His childhood best friend seems to have powers too. How far down does this rabbit hole go? This is my first attempt at writing. Expect the genre to wander. Currently on Hiatius.
8 117A World In Motion
The world is great and so much remains shrouded in darkness. We can stand on the shoreline and see the outline far in the distance but too often we fail to grasp what goes on. We limit ourself to our immediate surrounding and claim our small piece of land to be the center of it all. A king meets his end so it falls upon the son to wield the power of the crown. What if things were different? What can i do to facility such changes? With a need for something the newly raised king embarks on a journey to find out just what is possible in this world, his world. Historical fiction - The world has the same principal rules as our own but from the perspective of culture/technology/and more its different. Multiple Lead Characters - With time more characters will become relevant so you will experience this world from different vantage points but it's all connected and with purpose. Drama - True depth to a story rests in the arms of character you grow to love or hate, their humanity. Drama is an inevitable feature of humanity so if i succeed in creating fictional humans then drama will surely follow. Action - Place one human in the same room as another and you'll eventually witness action. Action with all the blood and pain associated will it is a natural extension of the human experience. Welcome to my world. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Image by Peder Balke (1849) Nationalmuseum. Public domain.
8 154The Ratter
By gnawing through a dike, even a rat may drown a nation.-Edmund Burke There are three kinds of monsters that every rookie adventurer can be expected to face. The first is the goblin, the small green humanoids that often cause problems out on the frontier. The second is the slime, the sneaky ambush predator that likes to drop down from the ceiling and seems to be just about everywhere. And then, there's the giant rat, the plague of the sewer and the tavern cellar. But they're nothing but a petty annoyance, right? Right? Wrong. Giant rats multiply like wildfire and mature very quickly. Unlike rats, they can very quickly exceed their available food supply and start hunting for human flesh the moment that nothing else is available. A hungry swarm, unchecked, can eat a city alive. But not if The Ratter has anything to say about it.
8 139Silverscale Paradise (A Yandere Harem Adventure)
Warning: This story contains R18 content and depicts sexual acts. Hey there, Mark Gregory here! This is the story of how I got sucked into the world of a trashy Harem manga that only lasted 12 chapters. I read it while I was high the night before and only vaguely remember anything about it....so yeah. No foresight. Also, it appears I am a brokenly powerful character, possibly the secret end boss, that was hiding in plain sight the whole time. - That is to say, the "Quiet Prince" student in their class. My new name is Zeneff Silverscale...can you guess what I am? If you guessed overpowered godlike dragon, then you are correct! The problem is...I don't want to be evil...and I don't know enough about the story to follow along...so what do I do? The Answer: Whatever the Fuck I want. I will also be posting this story on Scribble Hub
8 108Chronicles of Rathia - The Era of Blood
Welcome to the Chronicles of Rathia. Contained within is a trilogy of stories which are all set in different time periods and with different characters. Each story has its own era from The Era of Blood, The Era of Magic and The Era of Demons. Read along the first in the series which is The Era of Blood where magic is still in an infant stage and where swords can dominate the battle field. In The Era of Blood, you follow along the first main character who had his memories wiped clean except for the most basic things in life. It is up to him to find out how to get his memories back and why they are gone. (If you don't like the story layout or characters, I suggest either just reading through or wait till the next one in the series is being released. With how it's set up, you can enjoy any of the three in the trilogy but of course reading in order will help give a better understanding of the world.) (Side authors note - I'm currently reworking the first several chapters as they are lacklustre to myself since they were originally a draft and not concrete at first. This note will stay here until all the chapters I wanted to fix up are done.)
