??? POV
'Why do I smell a whole lot of medicine?'
My first thought on waking was that where ever I was smelled like antiseptic and sick people, opening my eyes confirmed my suspicion.
Currently, I shared a small luxurious hospital-like room with one other person-white haired female-probably in her mid-twenties if I had to guess.
The girl sat sleeping in a chair at my bedside, dressed in what looked to my eyes like some sort of cosplay, very, very high quality cosplay.
Her attire is navy blue, white and gray colored, and consists of a white coat with a red brooch that exposes upper arms, pants that have garters incorporated into them and black gloves.
However, there was the text hovering over her head.
¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦
Name: Winter Schnee
Level: 251 24.7%/100%
Title:Specialist(23% damage to any enemy, adds 10% accuracy with any gun, and adds 12% damage to terrorists.)
Unused Title(Properties still in effect): Strict Sister(The younger siblings of the user will be afraid of angering the user of the title.)
¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦
My eyes darted back and forth between the words, her face, and her armor several times.
*Ding!*
I froze, eyes going wide as they tracked a sudden obstruction of my view of the girl. The obstruction in question was a box—blue, semi-transparent, with white text.
{Alert: A skill has been created through a special action! Observing someone or something for a prolonged period has created the skill, Observe!}
I stared. When it refused to go away, I found the {X} in the upper right hand corner of the window and tapped it. Immediately, another box popped up under the first.
{Observe: Level 1. Active. Through continuous observation, a skill to observe objects, situations, and persons was generated allowing the user to quickly gather information. The higher the skill, the greater the data obtained.}
Narrowing my eyes, I tapped the close button again and turned my gaze away from Miss Schnee. Closing my eyes, I focused inward to think.
'Okay. So. What do we know? Firstly: I'm in a hospital, inside a hospital room....that seemed to be only affordable by rich people. Secondly: there's a cute cosplayer I don't recognize in my room. Thirdly…'
*Ding!*
{Alert: A skill has been created through a special action! By turning your focus inward, you have created the skill, Meditate!}
{Meditate: Level 1. Active. Through continuous inner focus, a skill to sharpen focus, order thoughts, and increase clarity of mind and awareness of body was created. Passive effect: increases VIT, INT, WIS by 20%. Active effect: while meditating, increase HP and MP regeneration rate by 100%.}
Sighing quietly, I reached out and closed the boxes before returning to my… meditation.
*Ding!*
{Meditation's skill level has increased by 1!}
'Oh for fuck sake! I get it, okay?! Thirdly: somehow, some way, against everything I understand of science, my life has become a video game. There, are you happy?'
I fumed internally.
'Now, the questions I sorely need answered: Where am I, why am I here, what the hell happened, and what next?'
*Ding!*
<A quest has been created>
<Not in Baguio: Gather Information!>
<You've woken to find yourself in a strange place, surrounded by stranger people, it's happened to everyone at least once, but probably not like this. Investigate your surroundings for clues!>
<Reward: 10,000EXP, answers, quest continuation.
Failure: confusion, frustration, quest continuation.><Accept/Decline>
Rolling my eyes, I tapped the button marked 'Accept' and looked around the room.
Immediately, my eyes caught sight of a device in the upper left corner of the room.
It looked absolutely nothing like a television, and yet there was a screen broadcasting imagery from somewhere with a person apparently giving some sort of news report.
Noticing the sound seemed to be off, I cast around for a remote before finding a box labeled with channel and volume controls hard wired to the bed.
Adjusting the volume, I began listening to the report, before an idea occurred.
Looking at the girl to my right and making sure she was still asleep, I turned my attention back to the T.V.-thing before whispering, “Observe.”
{Telescreen. A two-way communication device similar to a television. This model appears to be set to receive only.}
Closing the information window, I strained to make out the man's words without waking the other occupant of my room.
*Ding!*
{Alert: A skill has been created through a special action! By trying to focus on a source of sound, you have created the skill, Listen!}
{Listen : Level 1. Active. Through focusing on sounds, a skill to pick up distant or quiet sounds, or specific sounds out of a crowd was created. Passive effect: increases basic listening by 50%. Active effect: increases range and clarity of listening by 125%.}
“That's going to get very annoying, real fast.”
I decided. A quiet snort from the girl drew my gaze, before she sat up slowly and opened her eyes.
Bright light-blue eyes set in a heart shaped face locked with mine and I knew I wouldn't be able to say no to this very enchanting woman.
“You're awake.”(???)
Her voice was soft, either from just having woken or natural inclination, I couldn't tell.
