John read through the info boxes and the calm that Gamer’s Spirit granted him was shattered. He jumped for joy and pumped his fist in the air. There’s no way I’m not hitting level ten before I finish at Ashcroft. He looked over at the glinting ashes and cast observe on it.

Jar of Dryad sap(rot)

Dryad Vine(rot)

Dryad Ashes(rot)

He decided to put it all in his inventory, in case he could learn to craft things. Just then after another soft ding a new pop-up appeared.

Exit instant dungeon?

Accept Decline

I’m in a dungeon? That explains the weird light. Am I the only one here?

The info box dinged again, more insistently this time.

Might as well, he thought.

He tapped accept and the world around him seemed to shatter. The gaps left by the shattered pieces revealed the world he was used to. His classmates were still arriving to class. He quickly exited the class he was in and continued to English Lit, but this time he was alert of his surroundings.

He continued his mental machinations during English, acutely aware of how powerful he could become and how easy it could be.

I’m a fire mage now, and possibly a summoner too. What class would this be? Fire summoner? Elemental mage? Where’s the guidebook when you need it?

As John continued with his ruminating, he noticed that his title kept changing.

The Gamer

(Level 1 Fire Summoner)

The Gamer

(Level 1 Elemental Mage)

The Gamer

(Level 10 Philosopher)

John smiled at the last one. Ha ha, he thought sarcastically, I see what you did there. It’s because I’m asking a lot of questions.

The Gamer

(Level 5 Captain Obvious)

John’s smile widened.

“I’m glad you find the plight of Ahab amusing, Mr. Newman. Would you care to explain why?”

John was startled out of his mental battle of wits with the mysterious **** that was his powers by Mrs. Flung and his face turned red.

“I’m sorry ma’am, I zoned out for a bit there. It won’t happen again.”

Apparently pleased with that, Mrs. Flung continued lecturing Moby Dick.

Class ended, and the students formed their cliques as they all headed to lunch. Out of curiosity, John cast observe on a group of guys that usually hung out together and skateboarded to school.

Guild: Sk8r Boyz

Guild Leader: Matthew Burk

Intrigued, John cast observe on as many cliques as he could and found that they were all guilds.

Observe level 2: relationship bar unlocked. It will show you the opinion of the person or guild towards you.

This excited John at first, until he used it and saw that on a scale of -200 to 200, he was in the negative with all the girls and only in the single digits with most of the guys.

With that sobering fact now made clear to him, John set out to the courtyard where his table awaited him.
