The GM
*Evasion (passive, capable of being deactivated): attacks aimed at you have a 50 percent chance of missing.*
I looked at the massage that had appeared before me and prayed to all that is unholy and all that is holy that this large ball of fire would not hit me. "If god exists than let this ball of fire not hit me." My hands formed a strange shape which no one would recognise. It was a symbol of my guild in one of the games I used to play. This symbol has always stuck with me, for in dangerous situations I would always use this when in problems.
I looked up and saw the fire ball almost hit me but then through some feeling I can not explain. I then seemed to fly through the ball of fire and end up on top of it. I saw my clothes catch aflame but just not the the clothing which I had recieved from the random items chest. They seemed impervious to this weak fire and some of the fire that hit those parts was even redirected onto another part of the ball of fire. I enjoyed the weird feeling. It felt like something indiscribable yet it had a good feeling, something that made me feel rejuvenated.
A smile appeared upon my face, not one of extasy like normal but one which was geniunely happy. I felt multiple emotions ranging from happy to sad I felt everything and at the same time nothing. I knew everything yet I knew nothing. I was in a state of elightenment. I had heard a rumour going around that one person had reached enlightenment and had predicted the future, he was right he had predicted every rule yet to be explained. I tried to find him the next morning be he was already dead. I felt that I was now too enlightened.
*You have gained the extra class enlightend this class shall be known as a subclass as you already have a normal class. You can switch between both of your classes when ever you want, other people will only be able to see your current class, when you switch to your subclass your other class will become your subclass. If your class gives you stat point bonus you will always recieve those.*
*enlightened is a multiclass, a multiclass has only one user at a time in all servers, they are the type of class below ascendant classes.*
*stats are shared across all stats, the changing between classes takes 5 seconds.*
*For your enlightened class you have gained the following skills*
''Skip that explenation and just show me my skills.''
*Skills (enlightened):
Weakened combat Future sight (active): You will be able to see the future, This skill will cost 0.1 mana every 1/1000th of a second you look into the future. (level 1)
True future (active): You will be able to inscribe a future into someone, the future must be possible and the future can only reach 5 seconds into the future. (level 1)
Bountiful fortune (passive): You are 5 times as lucky (level 1)
Enlightenment (passive): Your intelligence will be times 2*
I do quite like these I thought to myself and then spoke: ''show me my stats I want to see that new intelligence increase.
*stats:
strength: 4 (average adult)
speed: 24 (Advanced)
dexterity: 15 (basic)
Intelligence: 20 (extreme)
mana: 4 (athlete)
murder knowledge: 32 (expert)
???: ??? (???)
Bonus stats: 0*
Hmm I thought to myself looking at my much increased intelligence stats. I did not feel different, I did not feel more intelligent. But my brain hurt. Just as my brain stopped hurting I had finally left the ball of fire and appeared atop it like I had ridden down on it.
I stepped of and before me appeared the ooh so familiar status screen this time in a colour which was red, ontop of the screen was written in bold slanted letters.
*SERVER BROADCAST*
*HELLO EVERYONE I HAVE MADE IT SO EVERYONE HERE HAS FINISHED THEIR TASK AT THE SAME TIME. I AM THE GM, I CONTROL EVERYTHING IN THIS LOBBY. IF I WANTED YOU ALL DEAD YOU WOULD BE DEAD.*
The message abrubtly stopped as if he was thinking until he continued.
*Let me stop shouting. I am argonius the third, I take care of all games that involve you dimension known as earth. I am a lesser GM. You could also consider me one of the kinder GM's. I will now be explaining what a GM is. A GM is a challenger which has decided to quit the trials and become a kind of game master. We have complete control over all those in the games over which we have control. I am a lesser GM as I stopped the grind at the 10th trial, the higher you go the higher your GM level becomes if you quit. If you are a GM and you dont want to be a GM anymore you can always continue with the trials. You all are now on the first trial. I got control of earth as it is a lesser dimension, lesser dimensions are logically ruled by lesser GM's.*
In the corner of the message there was a small smiley face coloured fully in the colour red.
*Everyone should be able to see a small smiley in the bottom left corner of this message screen. This smiley depicts your current alignment, or atleast what the I think you lean closest to. If you ever dont trust someone you can from now on also ask to see their status screen, but beware you can be decieved. Tomorrow's challenge will be a cooprative challenge between 2 players of the same alignment, there will be no punishment for murder and no one will know who you worked with. If there are none left with your alignment you will get someone with a similair alignment. The redder the smiley is the more evil you are the greener it is the more closely you are aligned to the good side. That was it for now.*
The colour of my smiley was so red I could not see through the normally see through status screen. A smile appeared on my face ready to take part in the multiplayer game of tomorrow.
