ch:2 shopping for a hero

The ball of light bounced around for a few seconds before it stopped right in from of Sam's face.

" OK let's get down to business. The world that has asked for help in the dimension you're going to is called Nova."

"Nova is not a Scientifically advanced world. Magic is what pushes the advancement of Nova. Most weapons are the medieval ones from your world. The amenities are almost the same through the use of magic."

"The world of Nova has a type of system like some of the video games from your world. You will have stats, Skills, some sort of class, and everyone has one talent. Oh and once the crisis is over you can choose a trade.You will be able to access a screen that has everything listed in a comprehensive way after you have purchased your abilitie."

"Everything else about it will be explained by those who summoned you. I will send you prompt that will lead you to the abilities shop."

"Ok, thank you." Sam said

Suddenly a transparent green screen popped up in front of his face. It said

DTA is allowing you access to the Hero Abilities Shop. Click the link to purchase your abilities.

Sam reached up and tried to touch the link. Nothing happened. His hand just went through the screen.

" You just have to think about the link to click on it." DTA said with a helpful tone.

"Thank you DTA." Sam said as he thought about clicking on the link.

As the screen changed to one with the title Hero Abilities Shop a smaller pop up screen appeared.

Due to DTA approving of the hero's attitude they have allowed the hero to receive one free stat from the list of approved stats. Please select one from the list below.

Luck U

Charisma R

Speed R

Sleep E

Stealth L

Toughness L

Sam looked over the list. Some of the stats were self explanatory. Luck boosted how lucky he was. Charisma would make him more charming, speed increases his movement.

He wasn't sure what the others helped with. Luckily when he concentrated on them an explanation popes up.

Sleep each point added increases the amount of energy regained from sleeping by 1%. Leading to a decrease in needed sleep as you add points.

Stealth each point adds 1% effectiveness to stealth abilities. Leading to it being harder to find and track the person.

Toughness each point added increases the toughness of the body by 1%. Leading to it being harder to perce and rupture skin and organs.

" hey DTA what do the letters next to the names mean?" Sam asked

"Stats and abilities are given different rankings. They go in order from common to legendary. Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. However that is just the shops way of categorizing the stats and abilities. Nova has a completely different way to categorize them."

So it's between stealth and toughness. Sam thought.

It would be cool to be strong as steel, but what happens if you're not as tough as a sword.

Sam shuddered at the thought of the pain.

If stealth fails however you could still run away. Yep that settles it. Stealth it is.

Sam thought about choosing the stealth stat, and all of the other stats disappeared.

You have chosen the stealth stat it will be added to your stat screen.

The smaller screen disappeared finally showing Sam the Hero Abilities Shop. It had three tabs labeled Classes, Abilities, and Stats.

In the right hand top corner of the screen, it had a box that was labeled Hero Points. Sam blinked in shock as he saw the number listed. 1500
