There was a group standing in a forest, talking. In the group there were four people. One light blonde haired boy with a shiny white sword, a boy with black hair and a wand that has green crystals on it, a girl that has dirty blonde hair and a long bow and another taller girl with a tied up brown hair and a wand. They all looked cheerful but also as if they were waiting for something. After a while, they were finally deciding that they should go but something stopped them. They heard something emerging from the bushes, making weird growling sounds as if it was from a monster. They all got ready to attack with whatever they had and got into battle stances. The girl with a bow got the courage and stepped forward to reveal what was hiding in the bushes. What they didnt expect to find was a person with a slight resembelence to a monster. They had gray skin with many darker gray marks all over their body. Their hair was black and had weird bone like structrure coming from their arms, it seemed like those were wings. The person walked forward and then said "Sorry." Then that person slightly bowed and introduced themselves. "My name is Arche and i would like to join your party as a spectator." Everyone in the group got suprised and looked at each other. They mumbled something between each other and then turned back to Arche. The short haired blonde man came forward and said "If you dont cause any truble to us then its fine, also.. what are you?" Arche blinked and answered "Uhh.. im a phantom. You know.. those purple-ish skeleton beings that fly through the sky at night usually?" "OHHH those! Yeah.." the boy nodded with his head and then looker back at his group. Arche extended his arm to the boy to make him look back at him again, and the blonde guy really looked back. He put away the arm from his shoulder. "Yeah u can join!" The blondie said cheerfully. "No.. i only wanted to ask for names if im going to spectate over you." "Oh! That. Uhh my name is Gabriel, the other guys name is Cael, the taller girls name is Clariss and the girls name with the bow is Ayla." The girl named Ayla came up to Arche and happily said "Its nice to meet you! I hope it will be nice to be working with yo-" Gabriel cut her off with his louder voice "Are we all ready? If yes then lets go enjoy this journey!" And so they all took off. Gabriel the sword master, Cael the healer and spirit handler, Ayla the bow master, Clariss the mage and Arche the spectator.

Swordmaster is just by its name is a front row class where you use a sword to fight enemies.
Spirit takers or handlers are people that use spirits of the forests or spirits of hell to fight. Only few people can have this class as its usually inherited.
Healers heal and also its usually inherited. They heal by special magic.
Bow masters use short bows or long bows to attack enemies from distance.
Mages use limited magic depending on the element the user is. Clarrises element is ice.
Spectators are people that usually dont do anything in the party but spectate and then report if anything in the party happened. They look like ghosts and can be seen by everything and everyone just not touched. The party members can choose to switch to spectator but two people at the same time cant be spectators.
The parties are special occurance where a person was chosen by the system and decited to travel around the world or become the hero of the place. The party can choose someone to become the spectator.

The group walked out of the forest and everyone saw a weird holographic screen infront of them. Arche became the ghost he was supporsed to. On the screen there appeared their classes and basic info about the person. "WOAH! I knew you told me about some kind of system but i didn't expect to have it too!" Ayla expressed her suprise. The woman next to her nodded her head to that and turned Gabriel. Gabriel turned to all of them and loudly said "I DID SAY U WOULD *PROBABLY* HAVE IT TOO." The boy almost fully in the back said shyly "U didn't actually." Gabriel snorted and turned back to face the mountains in the background and the moving grass infront of him. He showed with his arm to go forward and so everyone did.
Gabriel and Clariss were talking together in the front, they were talking about all sorts of things, like the things that they will encounter while on the adventure, the mini bosses and mostly theories of the final boss. The system has prepared paths for them to go. The trio in the back Arche, Cael and Ayla mostly stayed quiet and from time to time, Ayla asked Arche some questions like "What really are you?" Or "Why did you decide to go here?" Arsene answered every question she gave. She also sometimes asked Cael. He didnt sleak much and was just quiet most of the time.
After some time of only walking and talking, they finally encountered monsters. They were demonic horses. "GET IN THE FORMATION!" Gabriel yelled at the party behind him and everyone got into their place. Gabe was in the front and everyone else stayed in the back. Arche noticed there was no shielder or tank but he just didnt want to point it out and stayed quiet. He fount it amusing watching them fight and maybe get injured. Gabe cut the horses with his sword, Cael payed attention to their wounds, Ayla went even further back to use her bow and Clariss stayed in the middle to use her magic. Arche quietly watched them fight and then pointed out their mistakes in their formation. Gabriel yelled at Arche to shut up and Arche payed it no mind. That went on for like four more fights. Funnily enough, Gabriel actually used those suggestions that Arche said. After all those beginner fights, they finally got to the mini boss. They walked to some warmer area with half burning trees and lava all over where they walked. It seemed like it was made to be an arena for the mini boss and them to fight. When they saw the mini boss, almost everyone got chills and goose skin. What they saw was a humanoid monster covered in lava and stones. There was steam coming out of it and when it stood up, everyone saw its disgusting face covered in back rocks and lava coming out of its eyes, mouth and nose. It looked like it was bleeding. Everyone got terrified but Gabriel stopped them and yelled "INTO FORMATION" again. After everyone got into their places, they attecked. They were the first to attack, more like Gabe was the first one. It seemed like he wasnt even properly thinking since he didnt even yell out his usual "ATTACK!" Gabe swinged his sword at it but the monster evaded very swiftly. Ayla and Clariss both screamed at him "WHY DID YOU DO THIS?!" while Cael and Arche were just confused on what was going on. Gabe stupidly looked back at his yelling teammates and the mini boss took it as their chance of attacking. Before Gabe was even able to turn back his head, he was stabbed into his left shoulder by the arm of the monster. Gabe started breathing heavily while Cael ran towards Gabe to heal him. It almost seemed like suicide to other so the girls screamed at Cael another Why did you do this? The monster attacked the healer first and then quickly attacked the mage too. Now three of the party members were laying down while some part of their body was dripping with blood. Gabes vision was getting blurry and he spoke weakly with his remaining strengh "Do.. something..." Arche sighed, became physical and rushed at the monster. He fought with his own hands. It almost seemed like he was the boss there. Arche got the monster on the ground and then he started holding its limbs on the ground. Nobody could see Arches face and so Arche opened his full mouth. It looked like an arachnid mouth mixed with some dragon mouth. The boss tried its best to get away from the grasp and even harder when it saw the venomous spider like mouth coming towards it. The monster screamed and then surprisingly spoke "Stop!" In a weak voice so nobody could hear. Arche furrowed his brows  in confusion and responded "What is it?" The monster looked happy that Arche closed his full mouth and was back to looking normal. The monster then said "I will let you become my master if u let me!" The monster was really trying its best not to get killed in such cruel way. "Master? That sounds weird." Answered Arche quietly. The monster quickly nodded and said back to him " Yes! Yes! I will follow you loyaly so please!" Arche thinked about it and then agreed. "Heh. Why not?" And so he stood up and the monster pretended to be dead. The system then awarded everyone for their deeds in that part and for *killing* the mini boss of the area. It almost seemed like the system was on the side of Arche. The monster stopped hearing the horrible voices saying "kill them..." after it joined Arche. The party took a beath off to heal and everything and then took off again to confinue their journey. Gabe seemed suspicious of Arche, since he didnt expect him to be more powerful then he thought.
