Chapter 1 - The start of the system

Hi, my name is Lee Park. 2 years ago the system was installed into every human on the planet, along with the scenarios...

(An everyday house is in view, inside a normal guy is playing his favorite game: Monster Hunter)

"Damn it!" Lee yelled. "This Tigrex won't stop running!"

He was playing the beta of the Monster Hunter Wilds DLC. When suddenly his power went out.

"Guys we should cancel this quest, this bowgun build isn't working"

...

"Hello?"

...

Lee checks the bottom right of his screen. His laptop has no connection.

"Great, now I have to wait for this to..." The moment he gets up and looks out the window, he realises the entire neighbourhoods power is out. And not just the neighbourhood.... the entire country.

In a panic, Lee tries to use his cellular data on his phone. He calls his parents.

...

"Your call could not be forwarded due to an internal error, would you like to leave a mes-SA@*%$#&(^"

Lee drops the phone instantly, shocked by the loud noise.

Ding!

Suddenly, in front of him, Lee sees a blue screen floating mid-air

[Registry complete.]

"Is this some kind of joke?" Lee thought to himself.

[Please select one of the following games you enjoyed]

The screen showed a list of 3 games Lee last played.

[Monster Hunter - 2043 hours]

[Cyberpunk - 354 hours]

[People Playground - 56 hours]

The hours in Monster Hunter greatly overshadowed the other two games.

"Well considering I know this game the best, I'll pick Monster Hunter."

[Monster Hunter has been selected, continue?]

[Yes]

[Beginning ability transfer.]

"Oh that's.. my head kinda hurts... oh god... OH GOD MAKE IT STOP."

Monster roars fill his head, until Lee passes out.

Upon waking up, Lee sees the screen from before in front of him:

[Ability transfer complete!]

[Would you like to see your list of skills?]

"Skills? Like guard up and free meal?"

[Character: Lee Park | Age: 20 | Skills: Monster Soul (lvl 1), Weapon Manifestation (lvl 1), Summon Seikret (lvl 1)]

"The last two are self explanatory, but what is Monster Soul?"

[Would you like to activate the skill: Monster Soul?]

"I guess I can give it a shot." Lee sighs

[Generating 3 random monster souls.]

[Please pick a monster soul to utilise.]

[The Bewitching Dancer, Mizutsune | Lord of The Tundra, Velkhana | The Invading Tyrant, Bazelgeuse]

"I guess I'll pick the least realistically dangerous one" Lee says hesitantly.

[The skill: Monster Soul (Mizutsune), has been activated!]

Lee's elbows suddenly start twitching, just as it happens pink fur comes out of them. Lee runs to the mirror.

"What's happening to me.." Lee says while breathing heavily.

[Due to the low level of the skill the transformation will only last 10 minutes]

"WOAH!" Lee screams as he slips.

The ground is slippery, covered in bubbles, as if someone just mopped the floor.

"Wait.. mizutsune.." Lee realises what is happening slowly.

Right as he tries to recall exactly what Mizutsune does, a message appears.

[Your time spent in the game is accelerating your recollection]

[Attribute: "Monster Expert" is currently active!]
