"Focus host, focus! You need to seperate your consciousness from this world to enter your space. It's a whole different universe, you need to let your consciousness loose."
'I will be able to focus if you let me! Stop chattering in my ear, I can't do anything if you keep speaking non stop.'
Serena understood 004's enthusiasm and eagerness but it kept distracting her and then would start complaining that she won't focus. How was she supposed to focus like this?!
Seeing that the system had calmed down, she closed her eyes once again and focused on her breathing. Slowly and gradually, under the presence of perfect silence and the rythmic beating of her heart, Serena felt like she was falling deeper into a state of trance and falling in the void.
She sat peacefully while meditating and then suddenly felt a blinding light surround her. Shocked she opened her eyes abruptly, only to wince and scrunch her eyes shut. After a couple of minutes, she felt comfortable in the light and thus slowly opened her eyes and then gasped at the sight in front of her.
A beautiful landscape lay in front of her eyes. She felt elated as she looked at the large piece of land if front of her and then walked towards the beautiful fountain at the centre of the land. She stooped down and scooped a handful of water and drank it. She was delighted at the refreshing taste of water and felt nostalgic, she had missed water. Moreover, now she didn't have only those terrible tasting energy cores.
"The water, air along with the plants and animals you grow here, all are affected by your energy, the more your spiritual energy rises, the better they will get."
Serena jumped on seeing a little girl with a calm expression standing next to her. Seeing her bewildered expression, the girl raised her eyebrow and then smiled.
"Hello host, I'm 004, your companion system."
Her eyes widened and she stared at the small girl in shock. She was simply too beautiful.
After a couple of seconds, Serena closed her mouth but still couldn't form any words. She had never imagined that the system would have a human form, that too such a one.
"Hey host, I know that I'm very beautiful, but you need to focus on the work at hand."
Listening to 004's voice filled with amusement and containing a bit of pride, Serena chuckled and shifted her focus towards the fountain and the land once again.
From the corner of her eye, she saw the confusion on 004's face and decided to change the topic, "so I should plant the pumpkin sapling and leave my rabbits here?"
"Yes host, this is your space, your Golden Dragon Land! You can grow flowers, fruits, vegetables and rear your animals here. At first you just need to imagine the action happening and it will happen according to your imagination. After you have done something once, it will happen by a mere thought."
Listening to the system's words, Serena closed her eyes and focused as she imagined the rabbits and pumpkin sapling to enter the space. Feeling a piercing pain in her head, she scrunched her eyes, but didn't let her focus dwindle even a bit.
