With a ding sound, a Bluish transparent screen which reminded Add of some high end holographic projections, appeared in front of his eyes. The screen showed "WELCOME HOST" in bright white letters. Add tried to touch it but his hand passed through it.

"What is this ?"

As he was wondering, the words on the screen changed

[Would you want to go to the tutorial ?]

Yes No

The two options were sparkling, it appeared to Add like some of those games back on earth. Intrigued by it he decided to click yes, but his hand would not be able to touch it so he wondered how he was supposed to do that.

[To select an option the user just needs to accept it in his mind.]

The alert, helped him and he selected yes in his mind, the screen changed again.

[Welcome to The Military System. The System is a wonderful existence designed to help its used reach the peak of everything.]

[Scan complete, Registering user Add.]

[As a welcome gift, the system awards you 3 Lottery chances.]

"What is all this ?"

A mechanical voice which echoed in his mind alongside the text appearing on the screen making Add a bit confused. Then the screen showed a Menu in which various icons were glowing.

[User, please inspect your status by clicking on the STATUS icon or saying 'Status']

Add selected the Status icon and a display appeared.

[Its your luckiest day user! The Military System is the Ultimate tool and the only tool for greatness in all the Multiverse! It is tailor made for you, and It can make you so strong that Gods will grovel at your feet and Devils will tremble at your name!]

Add was quite unbelieving of this shameless boasting. "So what exactly do you do ?"

[The Military System provides you a multitude of features which will help you achieve greatness. It can do anything that you wish, given that you have enough Credit Points!]

"What are Credit Points ?"

[Credit Points or CP is the currency used by the system. You may earn CP by completing quests given by the system and completing achievements. As long as you have Enough CP you can even become an immortal, and laugh at the heavens !]

Disregarding the cringe lines, Add was quite interested. In his previous life all he did was killing people and fighting. This time since he had got a second chance he decided to live life to the fullest in his own way.

[Ding! User has 3 unused Lottery chances! Would you like to use them ?]

"System give me one healing serum"

A corked tube with reddish liquid appeared in his hand. Add removed the cork and drank it in one gulp. It tasted quite sweet.

[Ding! You just used Basic Health Serum ×1. You gained 50 Vitality. Current Vitality 70/100]

After drinking the serum, Add felt the pains in his body disappear almost completely. Though he still felt sore, he had no serious injuries.

[Do you have any more questions ? Yes/No]

"How do skills work ?"

[Skills allow the user to perform specific functions more easily and efficiently. For example the skill [Unarmed combat] allows the user to fight more efficiently when fighting without any weapons. As the level of the skill increases its effects also increase.

Passive skills are always in effect or come into effect as soon as the conditions are met. Active skills need to be evoked.

Skills are divided into four classes : Basic < Intermediate < Advanced < Master.

The power and utility of a skill increases as the skill steps into the higher class.

A skill can be strengthened by using skill points. ]

"Oh what about the rank and grade of weapons ? The knife also has them."

[The weapons and equipment are graded into 7 grades : Normal < Rare < Unique < Magic < Epic < Legendary < Mythical < Chaos. based on their attributes. The grades are further subdivided into three ranks : Low Tier < Middle Tier < High Tier. With each tier stronger that its predecessor. Weapons can be strenthened and evolves using the Alchemy and Forging skills]

"Hmm so that is it. Its so much like a game, hard to believe its now reality for me..."

[Does user have anymore questions ?]

"Not at the moment..."

[User, now that you have become familiar with the basics, you can obtain more detailed information at the Help section in the Menu.]

[ Ding! The tutorial has been completed! The system rewards the user 1000 CP for successfully completing the tutorial! Returning to main menu!]

Add looked at the descriptions and had his curiosity perked. The screen returned to the Menu section which showed many icons, some of them were glowing while others were dull.

HELP

[To Dismiss the System say Dismiss in your Mind and to open the menu say system in your mind.]

Add still had many questions which were not answered. He selected the Help icon and began asking questions to the system. After about an hour of questioning and answering Add had understood the basics of the system. So he asked what he had in his head for sometime now.

"System, where did you come from? Who made you ?"

[The Military System was made by and Higher Being. Any more details are unavailable. The system has travelled across the multiverse in search of suitable hosts for zillions of years , until it found you! The only one compatible with this System !]

Add felt a bit strange as to why he in all the possible candidates was chosen, but the system just said that he was the only compatible host and refused to say anymore. He understood that he could not win over this strange fellow so he chose to ignore this question for now.

Add then went to the Skill Tree. It unfolded the screen into a panoramic view. The skills were divided into 7 main classes. Offensive Skills, Defensive Skills, Enhancement Skills, Magic Skills, Healing Skills, Crafting Skills, Academic Skills. There were basic skills at the very top like [Unarmed Combat], [Physics Mastery] [Accelerated Healing] etc. From which many skills branched out in every direction, seemingly going on forever. Add even saw skills which could practically make him immortal down there, but they needed hundreds of billions of CP.

It seemed the system was not joking when it said that as long as he had enough CP anything was possible.

The Shop menu had everything up for sale. There were weapons, armours, Medicine, Machines, Buff items, Food, Furniture and almost everything. Add was surprised to see that there were modern machines as well as magical items too for sale. However the shop heavily tipped towards science rather than magic, as the Magic Section of the shop was locked. There were guns, Tanks, fighter jets, ships, and even Space ships! Which again cost astronomical amounts of CP. The system really lived up to its name.

The Inventory Stored things in a separate space. It had 50 slots, and Add learnt that he could increase the slots by using CP. The healing serum and combat knife were stored there. Which could be take out through simple mental commands.

The Quests showed missions he had accepted from the system which was currently empty while the Achievements were also blank.

Add returned to the main Menu and Began wondering what to do with his 1000 CP. He had a rough idea from Andrew's memories that this world was much more dangerous place than Earth, so he needed to spend his CP wisely and most effectively.

"So ...what should I do now...?"
