The System Guild

Chapter 1

Ah, my head hurts!

[Didididi...host-system contract 100% Binding completed.]

What...oh no...you got to be kidding me!

[welcome, host. I am--]

"I'm not in the mood!" The boss scrapped those words out of her sore throat. "Unbelievable, to think I'd believe that ***! Contact the Guild, I want to talk to my secretary!"

[...I am system 265358979--]

"Silver," she breathed out, interrupting the system's cold and robotic voice. "Although not the original Silver, you are not a new system. There's no need to explain to me about systems, Silver. So...just...contact Gisan, please?"

[...B-b-b-b-boss?!]

"En."

Silver was the name of system 265358979.0012, who is part of the Silver series (system 265358979). Since hosts don't have more than one system, then hosts do not need to refer a system by their real name. A simple common name will do just fine.

Systems...they come in various shapes and size. Actually, systems are not just born out of nothing. To be a system, a soul will be evaluated. Afterwords, they have to act as a host, learning how systems work. After several worlds, they will then take a System Exam (SE). Once passed, then they become a new system. If they do not pass, then they either continue being a host until the next SE or they get to choose to be reborn into a random dimension.

Silver, the boss' current system, is shaped like a golden pyramid and has an grayish-green eye on all sides. Silver got to choose this appearance after passing SE. All systems get to choose how they want to look, but they must stick to it. The only form they can not choose is a humanoid form, for this is only possible once they reach a certain level as a system. For example, Gisan, the boss's secretary.

[Sorry, boss...but according to the laws of the System Guild, systems are not allowed to contact the Guild unless the boss calls for them or when the host accomplishes the mission in their currently assigned world...]

"Ah," she cried. How could she get a 265358979 system?! Silver is the serious, cold-hearted character. Still, she is hoping that this Silver isn't completely emotionless... maybe a kuudere at best. "Okay, Silver. Tell me what this world is and the mission."

[...is Boss is the mood?]

"...Yes."

[Please wait a moment...We are currently in Clytia, the world of clowns. Clytia has only one land named Clytia. The capital and center of Clytia is called, "the Court." The world ocean is constantly boiling, which is the main power source of Clytia. Here, the slaves work in factories to maintain the power source.

[There is no government, an anarchy, no regulations. However, that does not mean that there is no hierarchy. The strong control the weak. This can be split into four levels: the harlequins and jesters, the perriots and clowns, the idiots and fools, and the slaves. The idiots and fools are not eccentric like the harlequins, jesters, perriots and clowns. They are the middle-class citizens, usually working in shops or for the upper-class society. The slaves are much like the middle-class citizens, except they were sold into slavery. The harlequins and jesters reside in the cities, controlling most of the economy, and are the most powerful in trickery and magic. The perriots and clowns are in between harlequins and idiots.

[Boss is currently a fool named Germ--]

"'Germ?!?!'" She cried. That really is stupid, being named Germ would most likely attract bullies, ah. What kind of parents would name their child germ, truly idiotic. Starting at this point, the boss will be referred to as "Germ."
