I was calm and serene, at last.

❮Brought up and presented to you by; Director, Masahiro Miyamoto; Co-director, Shigeru Sakurai; Producer, B L A N K.❯

I was being welcomed into the Game, it seemed.

❮Isekai Production Games presents ...❯

❮ "Once upon a time … in a fantastical world … there was a Player..."❯

❮ "This Player so happens to be you..."❯

❮Isekai Production Games presents … the Game.❯

But … hey.

❮ "Become the King! Work your way up to the top; gain new skills, make new friends, Share with them a world full of extraordinary wonders … Live thrilling and compelling adventures ... and mostly enjoy the game!"❯

❮...❯

A joke?

❮...❯

That must've been a joke.

❮...❯

Real funny, this joke.

❮The Player is welcomed to the Game.❯

Ugh.

It didn't seem to be a joke, after all.

❮Every required procedure has been completed with success.❯

❮The Player will now start the Game.❯

And to be more specific, I was being welcomed into the Game.

My prior state of agitation and restlessness had been changed to a calm and serene one.

❮You have received 1 notification(s).❯

And I just became a spectator of everything that'd be taking place from now.

❮Notification:

❮The Player's character has been created from naught. Therefore, if such a thing may even be occurring at all, the Player will have to wait before gaining full control over the Player's character.❯

Was that why I couldn't move just yet?

❮Meanwhile, the Player is enjoined to be patient.❯

❮Adjusting of the Player's control over the Player's character: in process.❯

It must've been why.

❮Do not cancel or turn off the character's physical manifestation.❯

❮This process may take up to a few minutes.❯

❮The Player is enjoined to be patient.❯

I … understand?

And shall it be all, mister guide?

…

Or should I rather say 'madam'?

Ring!

Ring!

Ring!

❮You have received 1 new notification(s).❯

❮You have received 2 new notification(s).❯

❮You have received 3 new notification(s).❯

Following these three ringing sounds, successively and each time, a message from the guide appeared.

The same good old female-like voice uttered the same message, again and again, only changing the numbers.

❮You have received 5 new notification(s).❯

Ring!

And it didn't stop.

Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring!

Up till...

❮You have received 19 new notification(s).❯

Another ton of ringing sounds went flooding my ears--That was so irksome.

And me, I was still in this passive state I'd dived in not too long ago, feeling all feeble and funny--I had still no control over my 'character,' as she says.

❮Notification(s):

❮You have successfully obtained [Consciousness] (passive skill) - open the Skill Interface and check your skill up! few days ago.❯

❮You have successfully obtained [Mana Perception] (passive skill) - open the Skill Interface and check your skill up! few days ago.❯

❮You have successfully obtained <Quick Pace> (active skill) - open the Skill Interface and check your skill up! few days ago.❯

❮...❯

It seemed repetitive.

And it hadn't stopped just yet.

❮See more about obtained skills - Open the Skill Interface.❯

❮A new title has been obtained 'Fratricid' - open your Status and check your title up! few days ago.❯

❮The Player has successfully evolved to 'Demonic Parasite.' few days ago.❯

These were my notifications. My notifications. My. Notifications. But don't even bother asking me. I'm just as lost as you are.

What's more, it wasn't even over yet.

❮A new quest is available: 'Obtain your equipment!' - Head and meet up to the Dryad for a last time; talk to her and let her know you need your equipment.❯

This one seemed to be apart from the other, ugh.

❮The Player has reached level 38 - Don't forget to add your bonus stats point directly from your Status.❯

And that one, too, seemed not to be about my skills or whatever.

But still.

My mind was just saying: Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah.

Hold on a second here?

I mean, all of this was just catching me off-guard.

❮New to the System? Open the Skill Interface: Yes/No❯

Still going all limp--be it my brain or my body--What's that? I thought.

❮Open the Skill Interface: Yes/No - 5❯

Obviously, yes?

❮Open the Skill Interface: Yes/No - 3❯

Yes, duh.

❮Yes❯

Heh.

Still sitting in my hole, I was in the dried out pond. Legs folded, knees brought up to my chin, head tilted onward due to the gravity, arms still being all tired--I wasn't that off anymore, I felt.

Although I couldn't still move, my senses weren't all that passive anymore.

❮Name: Skill.❯

❮Registered as: Skill❯

❮Skill Interface❯

This time about, instead of just the usual blue floating writings I'd had up till now--A blue panel popped out.

On top of it, I could read Skill Interface.

❮Level 38❯

❮Unique Skills: [Boramana's Benediction]❯

❮Parasite Inherent Skills: <Dwelling procedure> <Host Copying> [Evolve] ❯

❮Passive Skills: [Consciousness] [Mana Perception] [Hoyathu Style (Swordsmanship)] [Night Vision] [Enhanced Flair]❯

❮Active Skills: <Quick Pace> <Chain Attack> <Cat Hissing> <Claw> <Eagle Eye> <Spider Web> <Howl Wolf>❯

Heh.

I could only dryly scoff at myself … not even out loud, though, no. Even that much, I didn't have the luxury of doing.

❮The passive skill 'Evolve' is having an effect. Know more about 'Evolve Effect' by checking it up from the Skill Interface.❯

And now?

What am I supposed to do with that all?

❮Reminder: Do not cancel or turn off the character's physical manifestation.❯

…

Ahem.

The Skill Interface was its name.

After having chosen the 'Yes' option, it'd opened itself to me--The Player.

The guide presented it to me. It was hard to tell who was being introduced to whom, though…

Was it me to that Skill Interface thing? Or the other way around?

I didn't know.

It was just there, standing before me.

My eyes could see and observe it, scanning it from top to bottom, left to right; they just analyzed it.

That blue window was just sort of here.

Relatively short, floating around in the air not even a meter away from me, "I--"

'I don't even know what to do with you,' was about what I'd tried to say right now--Though I couldn't speak just yet.

All of this, it's just feeling off, if you want my opinion.

I mean, yeah, okay guide, whatever you say, all this information--I just feel indifferent about it.

Surely, I wasn't feeling much like paying attention to anything at all, in that passive state of mine.

And to top that off, bombarding me with so much intel wouldn't just get me down to the tedious task of understanding any of this, duh.

At the beginning of my sentient life--about a week and a half from now or so--naming myself, I'd have gone for Lost or something along those lines.

Now though, 'Lost' alone wasn't just enough.

Rather, I'd go for 'Utterly Lost.'

But no, no.

That guide thingy had seen that in another light--Am I supposed to be Skill?

Well, whatever.

Still, what should I do with that all?

What should I even say--I'm just speechless. That, and tired a little bit. No, not even a little bit. I'm ninety percent tired, nine other percent indifferent, for one last sorry percent of willingness to deal with this whole thing that I wouldn't even know how to qualify as.

I didn't sign up for this, so I should just … not concern myself with it in any possible way?

Yeah, let's just move on to something else, why don't we.

That blue panel in front of my sight, I'll just wave my hand at it and--My arm only twitched.

Ahem. I forgot.

And shaking my head at myself in desolation … well, I forgot again.

I can't move just yet. That's true.

Although reluctant to do so, having nothing else better to do, my eyes were now set on that window. The guide's window. The skill interface.

So many skills, I don't even recognize half of them.

Could I have maybe just obtained them beforehand? That was the most plausible explanation.

Ahem again. Let's not just give them too much mind.

In front of me, just about floating in the air, the blue, yet transparent rectangular Skill Interface found its place.

Many little writings were adorning its whole surface. All pretty neat and organized. It was quite fascinating.

I just observed and analyzed.

A skill that I recognize … there's that 'Quick Pace' thing!

❮<Quick Pace>❯

❮Obtained on high level human (lv. 73)❯

❮<Quick Pace> (active skill): Quickly dash for a couple of meters, both avoiding and assaulting foes. Melee attack is increased by 350; Ambush attack causes 175 additional damages.❯

❮<Quick Pace> (active skill) / Casting time: 2 seconds / Cool time: 4 seconds / Consumption MP: 15 MP / Range: 4 cells.❯

Okay…?

Okay?

Okay.

"Sigh…"

❮Your character has successfully been created - and is now ready to be used.❯

'Why--Why are you showing me all of this…?' was what I'd wanted to honestly ask, but ahem, enough of this.

I'll just 'okay' you, guide.

We've been introduced to this more than needed at this point. Yes. I believe we've had enough of this.

❮Your character has successfully been created - and is now ready to be used.❯

And I was just patiently waiting for this.

❮Congratulations - and welcome to the Game again.❯

Hush.

Properly introduced, you say?

Be dismissed already.

It's time for me to shine. (maybe)
