Apprently we will.
"Ha! It's a tutorial, perhaps you'll get cleaning magic!" mousy jab at malfoy "What!? There is no way I'll get such a poor magical proficiency, I shall obtain-!" mousy cut him "Cleaning magic!" Matthew defend "I just told you there is not a world where I possess cleaning magic" "Why not, you've been talking about cleaning magic for hours" true, he did "that mean nothing, I just enjoy being clean" "So cleaning magic would fit you"
What is this conversation?
"Is there even magic?" Jenna say out loud and I answer "well there is a magic stat" she look at me "yeah but we're at 0"
I look at her for a while and for a second almost forget that I have one in magic because I killed Twitchy.
I take a long time to answer, my brain is running slow.
"True"
Simple, not suspicious, that will do fine as an answer.
As I say that, mousy keep talking about how malfoy is destined to obtain cleaning magic, and all this talk about magic just make me remember something.
THE INVENTORY!
I lean back into the soft leather as I press my hands against my face, just sinking into the sit as I finally remember that I have an inventory, and that I didn't even used it.
Didn't even experiment with it, didn't even analyzed it, it's been like an hour since the mugging, and I still didn't mess with it. Dad would be dissapointed.
The sounds of talking thankfully calm me down as I rush to correct that mistake.
I think inventory, and gently but surely I feel something deep inside myself churn awake, like a new sense.
Instinctively I know it, I can feel what I possess in my inventory, a broken remnant of a bullet a 9mm one, and a glock, I can feel it.
So does it work on feelings only, like a sense? Can I change it? [Do you wish to view your inventory in a different form?]
I mean sure, what forms are disponible?
Waiting for an answer, I don't receive any, no sending to the settings to change anything , just nothing. Well if it isn't annoying, guess it's feeling and view-! Oh yeah, view.
After I said view a small red square seperated by squares appeared on my view. Basically a grid. That's just a grid.
Don't know why I'm talking about squares separated by squares.
It's just a grid. A red grid.
It looks like a basic rpg inventory, in it I can see the broken bullet and the glock, and my wallet it's not that useful really, wait my wallet? And MY KEYS!?
I stare at it, and suddenly I feel them, like I felt the other objects, what?
Well I guess it can be useful. But for some reason, I feel the feeling onl-![Do you wish to revert to standard inventory form?] Can't monologue in piece in my own mind? That's awfully rude.
Revert back, I'll switch between the forms when necessary, it looks like knowledge and remembering the things I put in the inventory is needed to feel them?
As it revert back the old feeling come back again, I can make it feel stronger when focusing on it, and it fade away into oblivion when ignored.
That's pretty funny, only now do I realize that my wallet was always here, just...wasn't focused? On it enough?
That feel strange, looking at the bloody spear resting at my feet, my hand halfheartedly grab it and boop.
it enter effortlessly.
Actually it enter so fast it's almost creepy.
Good to know the system is reactive at least.
All of the group suddenly turn to look at me.
"What? Did you all forget about the inventory?"
Confusion lace my voice, as if I couldn't fathom that anyone on earth could be so dumb to forget about it. That confusion is false, I obviously forgot about it too.....but that can be a secret.
Wait didn't the system said something about the inventory before the goblins came?
Urghhhhhhh my bad, forgot about it.
"Oh! Right! See there is magic" Mousy say that to Jenna, probably talking about what she said to me earlier, malfoy much more practical simply ask me "how did you put your weapon in the inventory?"
I raise an eyebrow at that question, how did I do it?
"I mean, just, try to put it in your inventory, think about it" malfoy look at his sword and frown at it, hard, for 3
Whole.
Seconds.
It's long
Then he look back at me "thanks you my friend, your explanation is so helpful." his sword is still out.
Okay first off. 'My friend'?
Annie try it at the same time malfoy make his sarcasm clear, after a while she look at me and ask, as if needing confirmation "just think about it?" the confusion in my features is starting to become real.
"Yes? You can't do it?"
Jenna just beside her say "looks like we can't" balrow looking at his shield say out loud "inventory" and his shield dissapear, I look at the shield, then at the others, they all say it out loud.
It works.
"It was in the message"
Damn it was what the message saiiiid! Almost forgot about it. Thanks badass grandpa!
That's interesting though, I try to get my spear out, it doesn't work, I remember really hard the mugging how I WANTED this wallet ou-! And right in front of me my wallet appear, just in front of my belly button it stay in the air for less than a second, static, unmoving, before gravity finally affect it, it fall on the couch.
SO NOW YOU DECIDE TO APPEAR YOU LITTLE FUCKER, I'M HAPPY YOU'RE DEAD AND YOUR LEATHER HAS BEEN USED TO CRAFT USELESS WALLETS LIKE YOU, YOU FUCKING USELESS SH-! Breathe.
That's not my spear, duh.
Oviously it's not, I focus again on that feeling and at the same time I daydream about taking out my spear from nowhere and scaring twitc-!
Like the wallet, my spear appear in the air, just in front of my belly button, stay still, then fall, ready this time my hand snake around the hilt before it fall down completly.
I look at the others, they look at me "thinking doesn't work?"
Jenna and malfoy say "No it doesn't" and "no it does not" respectively at the same time.
Annie scrunch her face up in an exaggeration of sadness as she try and fail to take her dagger out, and the old man, always useful say "take out shield"
It doesn't work.
"Take out sword from inventory" malfoy say just after balrow, it work.
Urghhhhhhhhhh forget using that in a fight, well I did stopped a bullet with it.
They all start playing with their inventory, trying to put their weapons out and putting them in again, as I do too.
I grab my wallet and open it by mistake, my grip on it strange, in it, two blue eyes stare back at my own blue eyes.
Ah, I need to change this picture.
I changed too much since my id was made, I'm sure it's almost not valable too.
For some reason, I don't close my wallet directly, instead my eyes roam on it.
Ludger Emellini, Male, yeah basic stuff, don't know why I'm looking at it, born in january third, 2007.
Yeah why am I looking at that already?
I stare at my date of birth again, oh right, I'm eighteen now, if they find out that I killed Twitchy I'm dead.
Isn't that a life sentence now that I'm an adult?
Fuck.
Perhaps I can escape with the chaos of the tutorial?
After a while, I barely think about it and the wallet dissapear in my inventory, why is it so easy compared to taking things out?
Is this because I stopped the bullet? I got used to it? Even when I grabbed the gun, it just dissapeared in my inventory when I was trying to grab it, it just kind of depopped, why do they struggle doing any of the two too?
I can think, and they can't, well. Think for taking things out, just kinda...feel it to put things in.
Is this because I had more experience with it compared to them?
I learned?
Are emotions are related with the inventory?
I was bathing in a soup of them when I first used it, perhaps it's something related to that?
I'm kinda feeling something when using the inventory after all, I need to tes-! "Take phone out from inventory" a small device appear just in front of Annie gut as it falls on the couch "I STILL HAVE MY PHONE!"
What?
