《World tag#001》Chapter013

The only way to describe what happened, in the blink of an eye, is to say...
- What the @#$% ?!
Cursing apart, my vision changed in a game-like interface, that followed all my eye movement. Neat and at the same time frightening.
- I'm really feeling more and more slipping from reality... I need to focus, breathe in breathe out...
I have to admit that, as vexing as it is, apart from the starting surprise this HUD-thing it's really exciting. Little sensible to the classics, I believe, this "interface" have two spheres in the left and right corner down at the edge. And seeing their colors, red and blue, my guess is that they stand for health and mana.
- Well that much is easy to check later.
In the high corner a black globe with "UNKNOWN" written on top is a map, I suppose, and another green one complete the ensemble.
Still looking around, trying to get used to have four balls in the corner of my vision, I found that concentrating on one of the spheres made it more opaque and the opposite was also true. "Funny" thing even with my eyes closed they remained there.
- It really will take some time to get used... But if the red is health, blue stand for mana and the black is a map what's the green one for? Mmmmm... If concentrating made them more visible maybe that's the key...
I concentrated on the green sphere and, after a few trial and error, a menu like the one on the mirror filled my vision.
MenuAvatar StatusMapSkill list*Locked*
While the locked one is suspicious, all the other voices listed seems identical to the one displayed before. Opening the m one by one confirmed my guess. The status, map and skill menu that opened before my eyes where the same, the best thing was that now I could check them without talking to a screen.

- An improvement yes, but I don't know if this is more or less crazy than that.
To test the other part of the interface was pretty straight forward, a small cut confirmed that at the decreasing health the red globe flashed and shrunk a little. Not really precise but I suppose consulting the status overcome this limit.
Just like for the health, making a little flame shortly appear made the blue sphere flash and shrink.
While waiting to see how fast they returned to the beginning size, similar to a tennis ball I think, I noticed a disturbing fact. While previously the cut on my hand took a while to close and scar this time the cut was closing much faster.
- Supposing there's a sense in this system, the only explanations could be the "Human I" change or the increased health...
I shook my head thinking at the increasing list of things to test and doubts to clarify, and so I did one of the things that always freed my mind for overthinking, manual labour.
Two tube-like parts of the bed frame, and four square connector, remained still untouched from my previous experiments so I started to think what to do. I made already a blade, big like a kitchen knife, from a metal strip and, with some difficulties, combining part of the sheets with the others metal strips and bended tubes gave me forearms, shins and torso armour.
- The whole thing made me look like an idiot that made poor life choices, and that's being nice...
Anyway, looks apart, the armour seemed functional from the few swings I made with the blade.
So going in the same direction as before I decided what to do. Leaving one of the square alone to use like a, albeit blunt, file I first started cutting long strips from the remaining sheet. Remembering the few information I knew about braiding ropes I started working to see if I could make one or more.
I have to be honest and say it's mind-boggling boring task, but it gave me time to calm down, settle my mind and sift trough my thoughts.
The end result was rustic but functional and gave me some ideas how to improve my previous crafts.

8 73Journey of my Core
I have a hard time referring anything that I write to as 'Original'. The longer we as a species exist the harder it is to be truly original, I am certainly influenced by all that I read and watch Including but not limited to J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, and all of the stories here on Royal Road. From the start the MC is only able to comprehend the most basic of what is impacting it with very little to no understanding of the MC's surroundings. There may be updates in the future, but I am in no way a consistant writer. I will never claim to be the best artist, but I drew a representation for my story. Procrastination... Procrastination... Procrastination... Procrastination... Procrastination...
