It was a normal day for Hilda, atleast it was untill she met her future self.
It was a normal day for 17 years old Hilda untill she suddenly fainted while standing.
"Young me, take this key and enter the tower early and climb to the highest floor"
Huh? I need more context here, also if your older me, won''t you be less serious?
It is what it is, I''m your future self, so just trust me.
Nope, even if this wasn''t a prank, I have no reason to go and risk my life to do so.
"If you do not, than the boss at the 100th will descend in 20 years and kill everyone in the tower"
Once again, not my problem
"Including our sister who will enter the tower in five years"
Oh... Can''t I just stop her?
Doesn''t work like that.
Well, gotta go now.
Wait, can''t you give me more information first?
Hilda wakes up on the floor.
Yay, what a joy, she didn''t even give me more information.
Well, how do I use this key? So I just stick it into the air and it works?
Hilda just tries sticking it into the air and turning opening a door.
Are you serious? Well seems she wasn''t joking, but I''ll still have to prepare before going.
Hilda writes a note for her sister.
"Elia, I gotta go, I''ll leave you enough money, your 16 years, you can quit school, see you in five years."
Good enough. Hilda says putting down the note and going to withdraw all her money and sell all her valuables to leaving the money on her bedside.
Well, I think I can go now... Actually, I should bring a mask, if I make any enemies I don''t want them hurting eloa due to mistaking her for me due to how similar we look.
Done, this idk it''s a cheap plastic mask I got during a Christmas event for free, but it works, actually before I go...
Hilda takes a picture of Elias and prints out a small picture to keep.
Okay, I can go now.
Hilda steps through the door, which causes a sudden brightness to blind her temporarily.
—----------------------------------------------
Couple hours later(presumably)
—--------------------------------------------
Hilda wakes up in an invisible barrier seeing 9 other people in similar ones along with a stays Infront of her that says.
Name:Hilda(17)
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Level:0
Stats:(1 S) (1 E) (1 A) (1 M)
Trait:sis con
Personality:sis conThis story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
Inventory(locked. Requirements:level 5)
Shop(locked. Requirements:level 5)
Wow, but seriously? Sis con?
She stops looking at her status as she suddenly sees a white glowing boy with a yellow outline with no facial features other than a mouth with the height being about a child''s.
Who is...
Hello everybody! I am your guide!
If you have any questions, simply ask the status, to simplify everything for you all, all you have to do is to kill, level up and collected skills. Bye!
The guide disappears leaving Hilda to check the benefits of her trait.
"Sis con" increased will power, higher resistance to mental attacks, will provide benefits as long as user is acting for her sisters benefit, regardless of directly or indirectly as long as it''s intentional. Strength of trait increases based on level of user and level of trait.
Oh wow, what''s my traits level.
Trait:
"sis con" (Max)
Oh nice?
But what do the stats mean?
Do you wish to elaborate? A system message suddenly pops out.
Sure?
(Strength)
(Endurance)
(Agility)
(Mana)
Oh nice, why don''t you just show it on the actual status?
Lack of space.
...
Hilda suddenly sees the barrier around her disappear and runs away incase anything bad happens and to avoid others into a forest.
Hmm, best not to mingle with others, learnt from experience that it''s not a good idea.
Hilda looks around and suddenly sees a bat and reads it''s status
Level 1 lesser bat.
Stats:(3 S) (3 E) (3 A) (1 M)
That''s a lesser bat? It''s stats are 3 time mine!
Screw it let''s just ditch. Hilda turns to retreat as the bat dives at her suddenly.
Shit! Hilda barely avoids the bat.
Warning: Host is fighting an enemy more than three times as strong.
Notification:trait "sis con" is active
Stats are being doubled.
Trait "sis con" is being strained.
Triple it!
Warning: trait "sis con" will be temporarily deactivated in 20 seconds if strained to that extent.
Warning:user will suffer recoil after deactivation.
Do you still wish to proceed?
Yea!
Hilda immediately feels an extreme increase in strength and uses her arm as a shield for the bat to bite down on as she brat it with her other arm.
Not so strong now are you?
Evelyn uses it to bash against the cave wall as she levels up.
Level up.
All stats +1
Trait has been improved slightly.
Achievement unlocked.
First to kill a monster.
First to use trait.
First to strain trait.
Nice... Hilda thinks before ditching the cave and finding a lake and sprinting to it before the recoil occurs.
After the trait ends, Hilda feels a shape pain in every part of her body.
Achievement unlocked.
First to get recoil.
Crap that hurt. She says having fallen to the floor.
Oh wow, I got a nice couple of achievements, I''ve gotta to check those later.
—----------------------------------------------
A couple mintues later
—--------------------------------------------
Nice, I can walk now atleast, but if I meet a monster, I''m screwed. She thinks to herself while checking her achievement.
First to kill a monster: all monster kills give 10 percent more loot(Epic)
First to use trait: trait is permanently increased by 5 percent(rare)
First to strain trait: trait can last longer despite strain and has faster recovery speed by 10 percent.(Epic)
First to get recoil: recoil is no longer as severe by 5 percent.(Epic)
Huh? Aren''t epic and rares too common?
Achievement rank is based on danger and difficulty level.
Oh right, the status could answer my questions based on what I''m thinking.
Does that mean the guide could read my mind?
...
Alright just ignore me I guess.
Hilda drinks from the lake as she sees a monster.
Oh you''ve got to be kidding me.
Hilda checks the status of the monster
Stats:(0 S) (0 E) (10 A) (14 M)
Oh I''m screwed, I can''t even reach it to hit it in my current state before it kills me with magic or something. Hilda laments her situation but sees the species of the monster.
Lesser mental spirit.
My trait makes it so that I''m more resistant to mental attacks and my traits maxed out, I used I gotta risk it seeing as I can''t put run something with 10 Agility with a damaged body.
Hilda watches as the spirit shoots a beam at her as she closes her eyes bracing for the attack but feeling nothing.
It was nothing? Wait now I feel kinda weird like I have to serve the monster.
Oh, I could make this work.
Hilda walks to the monster, pretending that the magic worked and attacks it killing it in one hit.
Wow, I guess having 0 Endurance really screwed it over.
Level up
All stats plus one
Trait has been improved slightly
Achievement unlocked.
Second to kill a level 5 monster(epic)
When fighting beings above your own level, your stats can increase by up to (5) decreased to 4 due to being second.
Wow somebody was faster this time? I guess they got lucky with their trait like me, wonder who it was though.
—----------------------------------------------
At a random volcano
—--------------------------------------------
Nice, I got the first achievement too time. Aiden says while checking his trait.
Name:Aiden
Race:Human
Gender:Male
Level: 2
Stats:(2 S) (2 E) (2 A) (2 M)
Skills:
water manipulation(level 1)
Mana manipulation
Trait: one with the water(level 6)
Personality:persistent swimmer
Thank god I got a water based trait due to training to be an competitive swimmer all day and night which gave me access to skills early along with the monsters at the volcano being severely weak to water.
Though I really would like to meet the person who got the first kill so early in. Aiden gets interrupted by the notification of Hilda getting second for killing a level 5 monster.
Wow, I really got to hurry if I want to catch up.
