“ Rejoice, as I have chosen you as my successor! “ When Jin woke up in a pure white room without doors or windows and got told that by an old man his first reaction was a loud and clear : “ Huh? “ “ As I said, you are the lucky person to continue my legacy. But first tell me your name. “ The old man continued while playing with his long beard. “ Ah yes, my name is Jin. “ Answered, still really confused. “ Jin? What a strange name. But I already expected it, you are summoned from another world after all. “ “ Wait! Other world, summoned? “ these two words snapped Jin awake. “Like one of these summoned heroes? We had those in my world too but aren’t those just really strong people? I don’t think you need a weak merchant like me. “ Jin said. He heard from summoned heroes from time to time, there even were some in the time he lived. They had killed the demon king just a few weeks ago, right on the day of his 20th birthday. “ Weak? You should have a massive amount of Mana, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to survive in here, much less speak. Even I have only a few more minutes before my manager will be completely emptied. Because of this we will need to hurry a little bit. I will give you six abilities on your journey. Firstly, Appraisal, a skill you use to, who would have thought, appraise things, the highest of all of them even. Secondly, the status camouflage skill that let’s you hide your status or change how other people or tools with appraisal type skills see it. Thirdly, a new body made of magic, you won’t age if you don’t want to and you can’t get sick. You also are much harder to wound and won’t die from minor things like a pierced heart or such, and heal in a matter of days. Fourthly, highest affinity in every magic system. Fifthly, the inventory skill, an upgraded item box with near unlimited space and the ability to customize things like how fast the time flows. You can even dismantle or craft things with it. And lastly, the most important one, the Magic Creation skill, that let’s you create and acquire magic spells easily. You will arrive in my laboratory, where I have left all of my research in the field of golems, the magic I specialized in. I hope you can continue my research. The room on the top floor is my room, I would appreciate it if you would bury my remains. “ the old man said while slowly disappearing. Before Jin could say anything, his vision went dark again.
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.When he opened his eyes again Jin found himself in a small room, seemingly dug into the stone. Nothing was in the room except for two small corridors , one leading deeper underground and one leading up. When he looked into the one leading up he could faintly see a light at it’s end, most likely this way was the exit. Jin decided to trust the old man and started walking deeper underground. After around a minute of walking Jin arrived in a wide room, also just dug into the stone. The rooms walls were filled with various devices on shelves from which Jin only recognized a few as. His face lit up at the sight of a dimly glowing grey stone. This was a so called awakening stone, a magic tool that would allow a human to awaken his status. Jin neared the stone while trembling. Back in his world an awakening stone was something that was worth a fortune and only nobles and rich merchants could afford to buy one. When Jin grabbed the stone from the shelve, it was warm to the touch and you could faintly feel something like a heartbeat. Jin closed his eyes and concentrated completely on the small heartbeat that was getting faster and faster. The stone started glowing more and more intense and even the first comfortable warmth soon turned into a strong heat. Just as the light of the stone reached a blinding level, a loud *CRACK* sounded and the light vanished, leaving a cracked black stone in Jin’s hand. At the same time a small window appeared before Jin.
Congratulations, you have succeeded in building your status. Welcome, Jin.
