Author s Note This started as a way to destress and play with overly complicated stats systems and level systems and I just kept writing I don’t really take it very seriously but feel free to read and enjoy back
Chapter 1
Randidly Ghosthound was walking back to his dorm sighing when it happened
System initializing
Huh Randidly stopped looking around with a frown If he didn’t know better he would say that a god like entity had just spoken into his mind Or that he was suddenly in a videogame and received a system announcement What was
And then the world warped walls shifting and changing and with wide eyes Randidly turned to find an exit
It was about that time that Randidly was smashed aside by the 3 Horned Demon Ram that spawned next to him sending him sprawling into the wall Luckily it was only a glancing blow because the charging ram had spawned practically on top of him but the glancing touch of the rams powerful flank was enough that Randidly’s head was smashed into the wall and he quickly fell unconscious
When he woke it was to a headache and several floating screens
Welcome to New Earth Your world has be entered into Nexus and as such are now running on a new system to give you the tools and challenges to survive and live a fulfilling life Good Luck

Warning Your health is extremely low Due to being under level 10 arrows will be formed on the ground guiding you to the nearest safe zone
Sitting up Randidly looked down to find that he appeared to have been passed out in a pool of his own blood For now it seemed best to assume that the notifications meant something and to head to a safe zone
Cradling his painful head Randidly stood and looked onto the ground for the red arrow
There was none
He blinked several times then came to a realization The pool of blood was likely blocking the arrow He took several steps forward and saw the blinking red arrow It was pointing directly backward between his legs Randidly turned around and looked up
A slightly glowing blue door was directly above the pool of blood He had probably cracked his head on it Feeling slightly foolish Randidly went into the room
You have entered a safe zone +200% to regeneration
Randidly found himself in a rather large room with a pond and a small tree Which was slightly off putting in a small stone room Randidly had been walking home in the underground pathway on Rawlands University campus and apparently whatever change had come over the world had changed things but had worked with what was already there
Honestly though the room was about half the size of a football field How could he possible believe this was natural
He was 90% sure this used to be a maintenance room not 5 minutes ago
But then he rubbed his head and realized that he honestly didn’t know how long he had been down there Sighing he sat down and brought up his status screen waiting for his health to regen
It took a little less than a half hour to rise from 5 health to Randidly’s max of 28 Feeling somewhat better Randidly decided to take a peek outside again to see what was going on
Carefully opening the door Randidly looked in both directions This wall looked relatively normal but beyond that they seemed to be in some sort of underground jungle Thick foliage obscured the far wall Turning left and right the tunnel also seemed to extend Most of the wall he was near was clear and it extended for quite a long way on either side
Not really seeing anything around Randidly started walking keeping along the wall trying to see what he could find
About 20 minutes later Randidly sprinted back to the safe room two Lvl 24 Howler Monkeys chasing after him having learned a lot of things
One that the area around him was incredibly large and it wasn’t as uninhabited as he thought
Two Randidly’s level of N/A was far from sufficient for fighting Level 24 enemies Not that he tried But the way the crossed the distance towards his position before he had even noticed them spoke of their strength
Luckily once the monkeys dropped from the tree their speed dropped to just slightly higher than his own allowing Randidly to escape by the skin of his teeth
Third and finally the system also had skills Perhaps the real reason that Randidly was able to escape was that he learned the Running skill as he fled and leveled it to 3 in the mad dash on the way back Each time it leveled from 1 to 2 and then from 2 to 3 he earned a PP
Still it had been a close thing By the time he had made it back to the safe room his stamina had been at 1 and the thought of continuing to move for even a second longer made his vision go dark
After sitting by the pond slurping down some water from the pond and catching his breath Randidly opened up his menu
There were four options in the menu Map Status Paths and Friends List
Both Maps and Friend List was greyed out and Randidly already knew what Status was so he clicked on paths
A new menu opened up that showed Randidly the 4 paths he had available as well as numbers next to them Newbie Path was currently 0/5 while P Def and M Supp were 0/10 Risk taker was 0/15 In the top right there was PP 2 which made Randidly believe that PP stood for path points or something
After a slight hesitation Randidly clicked on the Newbie path which then switched to 1/5
Congratulations You have earned 1 stat point
Sure enough when Randidly switched over to his status there was a plus next to all of his stats Which seemed rather simple but
He shook his head There were just too many stats Although they seemed self explanatory there was no real information available to him He would have to learn through trial and error Suddenly he felt a chill in his heart
Does that mean he could die
Shaking his head he put that thought to the side No use worrying over it now Instead he considered what to do with a stat point He was torn between something defensive like Vit or End and something more active like Agi which would let him run faster
Struck by an idea he went back to the Path screen and clicked on Newbie again And sure enough
Now with two he put 1 into Vit and one into Agi with a clear conscience Randidly also noticed that when he put the point into Vit his health went up by 2 while his Health regen per hour went up by 3 Stamina regen increased by 1 Which he supposed was pretty small in the grand scheme of things
Chapter 2
Randidly quickly stumbled upon a problem Originally he had just planned to happily grind up his skills while staying near the safe room increasing himself stat by stat He had even started out quite well earning himself Lvl 4 in Running and learning the skill Physical Fitness and swiftly leveling it to 2 just jogging around the safe room
