The New Player

The Start of Something Great

Chapter 1 by voidcaller17 voidcaller17

Hey readers I just have a few things to say before we start this adventure. First off this is heavily inspired by The Gamer chyoa edition. The reason I'm not putting this this with it is that I don't want my first story to be limited by the world space I didn't create, so your going to notice quite a lot of similarities. The second thing is, like I already said, this is my first story so expect revisions throughout the story. Ill let you know when and where I changed things. Thirdly it is going to take a while to get to the smut, it WILL happen. Finally if you have any questions leave a comment and I'll get to you asap. That's all I have to say, thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy.


I was laying in bed and and like any other Saturday morning my alarm went off.

"BEEP - BEEP - BEEP" blares my alarm. I reach over and fumble around trying to find the loud and equally annoying alarm clock. I find it and hit the snooze button. I grumble before rolling over and opening my eyes. I see a blinding light and curse myself for forgetting to shut the blinds again. After opening them slowly to get used to the light and...

"WHAT!?" I shout startled and slamming my head against my headboard. I stare at the strange floating box that now has a second smaller one in front of it.

- 4 HP

The notification fades leaving behind the first box.

My mind races as I read this. After a minute I reach out to touch it and it disappears. I stare at the empty space for a bit while thinking. What was that, it had my name. What did it mean by gift. What is g... my thoughts were interrupted by a new pop up.

New quest: Beginning steps

Use your new powers to obtain your first skill. Rewards: +1 WIS, +1 INT, +100 Exp and your choice of 5 common weapons. Accept: Y/N

"What... the... hell." I said reading it. I slowly move my finger to touch the Y. As soon as I do it disappears. I sit in bed for a few minutes thinking before my alarm starts going off again. It reminds me that I have plans this morning.

"Shit, I need to start getting ready." I say pulling my self out of bed. I grab the clothes I set out the night before, a grey t-shirt, blue jeans and blue boxers, and go shower. After I get out with my mind still racing after receiving this gift. I quickly whip up some bacon and eggs. After cooking and setting my plate down on my table. another popup appears making me yelp in surprise.

New skill: Cooking Lvl 1, passive.

Any food cooked or prepared by you now tastes better and gives better bonuses to stats and regen. Effects are determined by (Skill Lvl × 10)%

Quest complete: Beginning quest

Rewards: +1 WIS, +1 INT, +100 Exp and your choice of 5 common weapons. Pick one of the five: Beginners Bow, Beginners Gauntlets, Beginners Sword, Beginners Tome, Beginners Spear.

I looked at these new pop ups dumbfounded. After reading and closing my new cooking skill notification I saw the second. I realized that this was the same as various games I played. After taking a deep breath I thought to myself fuck it. Lets do this. I looked at the weapons I could choose and it suddenly it me. Why is this giving me weapons? Is there a need to fight something? They say beginners so this must be a tutorial something... whatever it is. Does that mean there are others? Whatever. Asking myself questions that I can't answer wont help. Lets look at these weapons. I try to tap on the Beginners Sword to view its stats but then the window disappears. In its place is a sword that appeared from thin air and lands on my table. I look at it for a moment and then a new popup appears.

Beginners Sword, Common Lvl 5

A classic medieval sword. Its blade is strait with two sharp edges on the front and back that come to a point at the top. It's no Excalibur but its better than your fists. Deals 7 - 12 melee damage.

New skill: Observe Lvl 1

Allows the castor the see the name and stats of any item or person. Won't work on anything or anyone five times your level or wearing anti-magic gear. MP cost: 0.5.

Magic, MP cost. That's all that's on my mind right now. This new skill is magic, real magic. This is like a dream come true! I smile and sit down to eat my breakfast. I start thinking about the WIS and INT I got and suddenly a new window opens and I can't help but let my smile widen as I look at my character sheet.
