A world.
A place.
A fantasy that explains what might actually happen in the future. A war. Deaths. 
One girl.
One man.
An entire mystery.
What happens in the end?

Just an idea I had, feel free to build off it!

Krack!
"Oh boy..." Kuso who was in his original body reacted when he saw the massive amount of thorns being hurled towards them from the top. 
But, Corona was not stupid either. She retracted her shield accurately to block the thorny substance made by ice. 
Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! Prak!! 
"That was an obvious trap though. Kuso, I thought that you are really smart enough to avoid it."
"Welp... I may be technologically smart. But it doesn't mean that I am really smart in every aspect as well." Kuso answered her in an unamused tone. 
However, the rain of the thorny hail had still continuing which led the girl to proceed as she said,
"Well... I'm not sure how we can answer it. But we have to walk fast. Make sure that you did not stomp the sharp substance on it." 
Then, both of them were walking together carefully at the left and right. 
As they walked towards the other spot of the forest safely. The goddess had used her elemental sense again to trace where was the girl had located lastly. 
However, Kuso had noticed something.
"I wonder what the hell on the Technoknight's mind. He or she is a script kiddie. Can you create a laptop for me to fix this thing out?" Kuso Pointed at the half-done robotic looking creature that was glaring at the goddess and the software developer.
"How do you know? And why you tell it as the script kiddies and what is that?" The goddess questioned the software developer who had mentioned so, which led the software developer to explain.
"Well... Script Kiddies is a kind of guy who uses someone else's source code for something inside of their own benefit."
"Sorry, what?" Corona asked him confusingly. He was making it easy to understand by saying,
"Imagine that you have created a sword. Then the random people are only like using the sword without knowing how to use it properly. That's how script kiddies are!"
She was silenced and then, she nodded as she started to get understand what the guy had said. However, she complained to him,
"If you were not doing swear violation. Then I can help you to craft a laptop. Still... I can't do it now."
"Stupid." Kuso reacted with an unamused look. He was referring to "Stupid" as himself, not as the goddess which led the goddess chuckled and patted his head, as she said.
"People makes mistake. Just like how do you say earlier."
"That even makes me felt a lot stupider. Like you know, I'm the one who had stated the quote, and then, I'm the one who defies it!" Kuso answered her with a whining tone. For the first time, Corona had to see his whinny side. It warmed her as she murmured in her heart,
"I thought. This man is always like spanking and spanking. But, he was much sweeter than I expected!"
They proceeded towards the machine that seemed to be shutting down. 
Srak!! Srak!!
That was the footstep voice from their foot as the grass being stepped on. 
"Ssst!!! Your footstep is too loud!" Kuso complained to Corona as both of them were hiding in the bush to observe the golem looking robot. 
"You're much... kya!!"
"Speak again and I'm gonna stab your hole!" Kuso placed his right middle finger at her butt that his finger had been placed to her butt hole. It caused the goddess to freaked out for a while.
Still... They were both observing the movement of the Golem-looking robot that seemed not to be responsive for now. 
They kept coming closer... And closer...
Then. They managed to get close to the sleeping golem which led the software developer crawling gently towards the source that he believed was a part that turned the monster on.
But...

"Killing is a crime. Yeah, I get that. But, do you know what's not a crime? Spanking someone. Still... Spanking your own child is considered a crime. So, guess what? I can't do that to my own kid if I have one.

But, you're not my kid. So, how about we have some fun? If you call me mommy, I might stop spanking your butt to shredded meat!!"

Kuso Amakusa, the thirty-year-old programmer, known for his meticulous way of thinking, had to be reborn as a female knight. Not a normal knight that everyone knows, but as a Knight known as the "Technoknight".

<You gained Monarch Of Death [Legendary+]>
…
..
<You unlock one of the 4 conditions to gain ????? ?????? Title>
…
.
[Yoooooshhhhhhaaaa!!!!!!!]
I shouted excitedly after hearing this notification inside my head!
Even though there's a weird notification in the last part, I ignored it for now after knowing that I combined the skills successfully.
Anyway, since it just unlocking a condition to gain a strange unknown ??? title, why should I dwell on it further? It'll be better if I appraised the [legendary +] rating skill I gained first.
===============================================

Abilities :
- Perfect Undead : Rising the death into a perfect undead with 100% original status and skill intact if you fulfill a certain condition.

- Monarch : You can control an unlimited number of Undead under your command
- Anti Devil Magic[small] : giving an Anti-Devil property to your magic power(Deal damage to the Devil race[small])
================================================
[Wh-what the heck is this!!!!!]
As expected of [Legendary +] rating skill, it's ridiculous as ever!
Even though it's not enhanced my raw status, but the ability it provides alone is very ridiculous!
'Huh? Strange… why did I have the ability to absorb Dark element power? Shouldn't the Immortal bloodline have the Dark element as its weakness? Ah! I forgot, since this skill just appears in my copied skill slot, and not truly gained by me, I can have this ability just fine'
'maybe I should combine some skills to create a similar skill like the Monarch Of Death, but with Light Element as its expertise to erase the weakness effect from Immortal bloodline completely'
'It's worth trying in the future when I collected more skills!'
Leaving that aside, the last ability, Anti Devil Magic[Small], I don't know why but I suddenly feel a foreboding feeling after seeing it somehow.
'Did I have some Ill fate with the Devil Race? Ck! This is very troublesome, even though I just want to live peacefully, the world seems to think different'
'Whatever, Since I have some Ill relationship with that Edward Arthrast, I think this ability is quite handy in the future'
I decided to throw this thought at the back of my mind.
There are more important things to do now, that's is to experience creating undead and trying the ability of my new skill.
First of all, let's try resurrecting the skeletons.
Since I already hoarded it from that mysterious cave before, I have a lot of skeletons in stock inside my inventory skill.
Upon taking out some of it, I excitedly use my new skill ability, Perfect Undead.
'Rise!'
I shouted out on my mind.
Before long, my magic power suddenly poured into the skeletons as it became Dark Red mist for some reason, slowly enveloping all the skeletons.
Crrtk* crrtk* trembling skeleton SFX
Slowly, the skeletons rise and assembled themselves into skeletons undead.
However, After I looked at them, there's something different between my skeletons with the skeletons that bony bastard make in the past.
For some reason, the skeletons have a dark red color instead of white bone, like usual.
After observing more carefully, the bone actually became more crystal-like.
Beautiful, but ominous at the same time.
The skeletons soullessly stood up, staring at me without a hint of intelligence that could be felt from it.
Heck, even it looks more like the skeleton in the biology classroom rather than undead at this point.
'Let's just appraise some of them first…'
{Skeleton Warrior}
Lv -
HP : C
MP : E
ATK : C
MATK : E
DEF : C
Properties : Magic Resistance [80%] 
Weakness : none
A.S : none [You can only insert A.S up to Uncommon Rank]
*A.S : Artificial Soul
 
{Skeleton Magician}
Lv -
HP : D
MP : B
ATK : D
MATK : B
DEF : E
Properties : Magic Resistance [80%] Fire Magic [up to lv IV]
Weakness : none
A.S : none [You can only insert A.S up to Rare Rank]
[Hooo…. Interesting... Anna said, the skeleton monster has a weakness to blunt weapon, but it seems mine is not the case... and this A.S...]
That's why these skeletons look soulless and act like idiots.
It turned out that I need to create an Artificial soul for them.
But still, how did the Artificial Soul Work? Why did they have a rank?
Then, without further ado, I decided to use my new skill another ability, Artificial Soul.
Tring!
All of a sudden, a translucent blue screen suddenly appeared before me.
After observing the menu and stuff, written on the translucent screen, I couldn't help recalling a programming game software from my previous world, Unre*l Eng*ne 4.
The Only difference is, the screen in front of my eyes just has the script writing function.
As for the actual graphic game creator-function like the white mannequin stuff as well as 3D terrain design stuff, there's no such thing inside the translucent screen menu.
B-but, the orderly script writing thing like a column is exactly the same as Unire*l Engine 4 software.
Anyway, since I didn't know much about Unre*al engine, I can't be so sure, I just unconsciously recall it as it was the same with one of the Unreal Engin* 4 My-tuber used, I saw on the internet.
Okay, let's stop dwelling in this UE stuff and begin to create Artificial Soul!
I slowly designing the script, the same as programming and writing a script to create an A.I for a game.
With the help of my skill, I was guided to create a simple one as a tutorial.
When I finish creating one, I can check how the A.I actually work, with my skill as it started showing me the illustration video of it on the screen.
The video showed how this A.I really worked in reality.
The way of the combat, what reaction it does when spotted an enemy nearby, what reaction if it pass by a friendly unit, etc.
I can design what is considered an enemy and allies inside the program.
Since there's some goblin working in the Agricultural district as well as Sable the Wyvern, I can't set the enemy by select a monster race as a whole.
I can set it to detail manner as such all the monsters that weren't under my control are the enemies if I want, but the A.S rating will be increased into Rare, so it will only apply to the magician one or some of the high spec one.
Ah! Speaking of the A.S rank, there's Common -> Uncommon -> Rare -> Epic -> Legendary, from the lowest to highest.
Anyway, since I can't set a complicated A.S for the low-spec Skeletons warrior, I didn't set any enemies in its program.
So, if I want to make these low-spec skeleton warriors fight, I can only order them manually, as to how ordinary necromancer originally does.
Anyway, it's not like I will use these guys to fight in the first place.
Maybe some of them can be used to fight, since there's some of the Skeleton Warrior that had some good spec, can be installed with Rare Rank A.S, but for the lower-spec one, I have a good idea about how to appropriately using these guys!
Yes! It's working them to do a simple job in the factory and working the in public services, such a driving the public bus, operating the MRT to run as it scheduled, as well as working to maintain my hidden city, cleaning and watering the trees and flower inside my city.
With this, I can allocate the people to do more complicated jobs rather than doing menial jobs inside my city, increasing the efficiency by a notch.
As long as I trained and gave them more advanced education, they can help Chali and the others to running my developing business as a big corporate.
Not only that, I can place the talented one to work on managing the military to do paperwork, as well as doing some researches to develop more advanced magic technology or biotechnology of this world.
Who knows, if one of the people who stayed at my hidden base interest in biology and developed a serum that can increase the Status permanently after the consumption or even developed an elixir!
Moreover, for the high spec undead, after getting the magic weapon developed in the future, I could arm them with a magic gun as well as magic armor, creating a discipline and terrifying army who were only obeying my command!
There're endless possibilities!
By just thinking of it, I can feel my heart started thumping in excitement!
'Ah!! Come to think of it, there's still some A-rank Red Ogres as well as Immortal Ogres corpses in my inventory!'
'Hehe~ Buooy~'
'It'll gonna be good~'
With this, I excitedly took out more skeletons as well as monster corpses from my inventory.
With my skill, I started rising them from death.
Ah, about the Artificial soul, it seems after I created one, I can save it like a template and copy this template before putting it into the skeletons or undead once again.
It's the same as copying the program and paste it to make multiple NPC in the game.
'Huhuhu~ thanks to making my job easier~ as expected of [Legendary +] rating skill, Its OP beyond reason hahaha~'
Hahahaha!
With a sinister laugh echoed throughout the surrounding, little by little, countless undead slowly rise from their slumber…


"Whaa--- I can order Mcdonalds in isekai ?!! With this i can still eat junkfood without problem in the middle of the jungle mwahahahahah! what is dry meat ?! i dont need it !!"

"I think we need to reassess our understanding of their strategy…"
"Hmm… What exactly are they up to?"
When Doomsday Assault and Final Assault came across the partially undressed headless body and the pulp of meat that was not far away, they were overwhelmed by panicked confusion. Doomsday Assault asked, "If the human head earlier was to scare us, what is the purpose of all this?"
"Do you think it's possible that…" Final Assault's tone started to assume a weird change. "… after they decapitated the man, they split up temporarily? Flashes of Sword carried the man's head back to place it where we found it, and the other…"
He paused to glance at the menu. "… called Feng Bujue stayed behind and did something to this dead body?"
"Is the man insane?" Doomsday Assault questioned. "But didn't Thriller Paradise set some kind of limitation to actions that desecrate dead bodies. What could he have done?"
"How would I know?" Final Assault replied. "I'm just attempting a guess. Perhaps we've misunderstood everything. They were probably being very thorough when they searched the body."
"I hope you're right…" Doomsday Assault swallowed his saliva. These two from Zombie Blade felt great terror looming over their hearts. This cast a bigger shadow on them compared to when they saw the decapitated head.
But their expressions were as unaffected as before, and that could be explained by 'that medicine' that they mentioned…
As Flashes of Sword had said, the members of Zombie Blade were known to cheat. It was too far to call them the cancer within the industry. They merely had their own way of approaching things.
In the film industry, for example, an unknown scriptwriter could have spent more than ten years to write his script and find sponsor before finally producing a product, and the film might gross about five times his investment.
But for another scriptwriter who had some connections, he could spend several months coming up with a passable script, finding a few famous actors to be in his movie, and coming up with a topic-worthy promotion to get the people into the cinema. Similarly, he would be able to earn quite a bit from the box office.
The profit earned by these two would be the same in the end, the difference being that the former might garner some reputation while the latter would be overwhelmed by negative reviews. Ultimately, though, human beings are forgetful creatures. When the former disappeared from the public eye to focus on his writing, the later would continue to produce similarly horrible films every year, but he would end up with the same amount of income each year.
This example could be used in any other industry. In this world, to achieve a goal, there was more than one way to do it. In fact, after one removed the manacle of morality or principles, the choices opened up even more.
Zombie Blade gaming studio had provided immense contributions to the gray area of online gaming. Speaking of finding loopholes and exploitable bugs, they were even more of an expert compared to bigger names like Brahman. Of course, even though this was what Zombie Blade specialized in, they still lagged behind Regulation. After all, Regulation was the top dog in the industry, and a studio that depended on alternative methods like Zombie Blade could not be counted as the top in the industry.
However, they managed to flourish in their own way. To be frank, everyone's goal was earning money. Reputation, what was that? This world was a realistic one. As long as there was money, there would naturally be people who came to ask for one's service.
The players and workers at Zombie Blade did not even have a contract with the studio. Instead, most of them signed the cooperation through a third party, so when there was a legal altercation, it would be easier to push the blame around. At worst, the company would dissolve, and they would rise again under a different name.
If they were already doing that in the real world, one could imagine how much worse they were in-game. Zombie Blade had a team that specialized in writing cheats. In most of the games that they had been involved in, they even sold the cheats to other players.
In such 'exhaustible' games, they did not mind if their accounts were banned. Since most of such games were free to play and pay to win, the gaming company's goal was to earn as much money before the hype blew over. Therefore, they did not limit IDs from registering accounts, and one person could register many accounts. Thus, being banned was merely a formality because they could register a new account easily. One could easily understand the players' psychology; they wanted to have the most fun and win the most battles. For that, the way to do it was to throw money against other players. Instead of wasting the money on the gaming company, they might as well they spend it on cheats. It brought the same amount of fun, and the money spent would be less than purchasing those limited equipment and items. They could stop whenever they felt bored.
However, in the age of the fourth photon computer, it was hard to evade discovery when using cheats. Even with the attachment of undetectable, illegal hardware, that was hard to do. As long as the gaming company and the game itself were not too trashy, cheating would eventually be discovered.
For that, Zombie Blade came up with other methods. They turned to research some illegal assistant 'software'. These kinds of software had the same purpose as cheats, but they were more like assistants in nature. For top players, they would provide little to no effect, but for normal players, the use of such tools would provide immense advantages.
Other than that, Zombie Blade had no care about their studio's reputation, which was dropping by the day, and often committed horrible acts against their competitors. Of course, they would not go after big names like Regulation and Brahman; they still knew their limits. However, against studios that were on the same scale as them, they would not hold back. Spreading untrue rumors, attacking other people's servers, those were common occurrences for them, and they had destroyed a few competition this way before.
In conclusion, those people were professional, and they had carved out a path for themselves with their own unique way of surviving.
But as the idiom goes, as high as the squirrel jumps, one day, it will fall to the ground.
Zombie Blade finally found their match in a gaming company… and the game in question was Thriller Paradise.
The game's system was flawless, and they could not cheat at all on a technical level. Therefore, they organized a secret DDOS attack on Dream Inc's server to see how powerful they were.
And… they were burned. Zombie Blade not only failed to take down Dream Inc's firewall, Dream Inc retaliated. An unknown virus leaped across numerous fake IPs and puppet CPUs to infect and destroy Zombie Blade's system.
That day, on the computers in the company building, there was a round cartoon face. It was a dirty-looking man with glasses making a mischievous laugh. "Hue hue hue…"
All the data in their hard drive was wiped, and the loss was unimaginably huge. They did not only lose their limbs—their spine was snapped.
That day, the laptop on the director's table even exploded. He had only seen something like this in the movies before. An FBI-level hacker remote-controlled the enemy's laptop to overheat its hardware and cause it to explode. He did not expect that he would be the target of such an attack in his life.
Since they were the aggressor, the members of Zombie Blade could only suffer the grievance in silence, and they did not dare scheme against Dream Inc anymore…
Then, Zombie Blade's hardware development team reached a bottleneck as well. They had tried all types of illegal attachments, but they were useless on Dream Inc's gaming hub. The technical issue was undetectable. Even if they dismantled the gaming hub, they got no closer to the truth.
This situation had not happened before. With so many technicians, they had failed to even come up with some small cheats in an online game! Was that even reasonable? Was Dream Inc secretly the country's defense agency?
Therefore, the members united their passion to break down this wall. After many meetings and a lot of research, they finally came up with the solution. Since they could not do anything to the game, they would work on the player.
'PU63' was the code for the medicine. What happened during the process of researching PU01 to PU62, no one knew. In any case, PU63 became the only advantage that Zombie Blade had in Thriller Paradise.
The complicated relationship that Zombie Blade had with a certain heartless pharmaceutical company is a topic for another time.
In any case, after a player consumed this medicine, they would enter a state called 'lucid anesthesia'. This oxymoron was actually easy to understand. One could see it as a 'state of forced calmness'.
All the research data showed that players who consumed PU63 would never have their Terror Points rise over fifty percent even in the most distressing part of the scenario. The medicine would not affect their mental acuity and would even increase their resistance toward pain and their reflexes in emergencies.
To put it plainly, this was a type of steroid given to players.
The gaming hub merely tested the player's heartbeat, pulse, and blood pressure. It did not contain the power to check for medical element, so they could use this kind of drug without worry.
Currently, only the inner members of Zombie Blade were using PU63. They were not prepared to sell this drug to the public even though the advertisement and promotion were being made already. In the next two months, this thing would probably appear on the third-party market, but that was a matter for later.
Anyhow, the duo's confidence was not baseless. With the aid of the medicine, even though they would still feel fear, the level would be dampened, at least physiologically.
With this kind of advantage and the level advantage in-game, it was normal for them to assume that they would win.
"Wait… What is that?" Final Assault said as he squatted down again. His eyes focused and discovered that there was some kind of trail on the man's tank top, which was half lifted up.
Doomsday Assault also got closer to take a look.
Final Assault lifted the shirt to get a clearer look. Just above the dead body's stomach, a sentence was carved deep into the flesh.
"Why so serious?" Doomsday Assault read the sentence and then turned to ask his teammate, "What's the meaning of this?"
"This is…" Final Assault was confused as well. Suddenly, he noticed that, around the question mark of the sentence, a metallic wire was poking out from underneath the skin. He reached out his fingers to pick at the wire, attempting to pull it out…
…
BANG!
At the same time, on the other side of the lab, Feng Bujue heard the explosion. He glanced at the menu and sighed rather disappointedly. "Sigh… we only got one…"
 


This is a game beyond dimension–the pursuit of truth. 
The unknown seal, the gambit between gods and demons… 
The defiance against data, the retribution of human… 
In a virtual world connected with reality, consciousness dictates us, consciousness chooses us, and consciousness dictates our consciousness. 
Now, throw away you fear. 
Throw away your selfish interest, question, and disbelief… Free your thought. 
Welcome to Thriller Paradise. 
Feng Bujue lost his ability to fear because of an unknown psychological disorder. Through a virtual reality game designed for players to experience fright and despair, he began his search for his lost fear. Could he finally regain his ability to fear? Could he outwit the scenarios presented to him? Could he finally uncover the truth hidden inside Thriller Paradise?  


As planned, the first thing Ivan did after arriving back at his room was to take out the iron rod, the goblin leather, and the Nanite Assembling tool.
Unlike the last time, where he already had a ready-made iron ingot, this time he didn't have this luxury. Instead, he would have to first decompose the iron rod into an ingot and then use it in the blueprint.

He first opened up the Nanite Assembling Tool (NAT) and then put the iron rod inside. Because he had selected the correct dimensions beforehand, the rod fitted in perfectly and after closing the lid, he could begin the process of transforming the rod into an ingot.

This was where a big difference was experienced by him, compared to the last time. The last time he had used the NAT to refine the knife, he just had to select the blueprint and everything else happened automatically.
Because he didn't have any blueprint for converting the iron rod into an ingot, he had to do this by hand. Or more correct, by the mind.
The NAT had an advanced option which was called free mode, which allowed the user to directly control the nanites inside the interior of the tool. They could then be used to disassemble the rod and use the iron atoms to reassemble an iron ingot. Luckily, the blueprint for the knife also came with the exact specification of the iron ingot required, so he had this to use as a goal.

Of course, it was impossible to direct every single nanite by itself. At least at his current level. But since it was possible to write scripts for them, he could do that and then have them do the job automatically. This was also how blueprints worked. In essence, they were a collection of scripts, directing the work of the nanites. Of course, with their high precision, such scripts would make the process of creating an item mechanic and without feeling or intent.
Basically, it would result in a difference, like a machine crafted item and a handcrafted item. A handcrafted item would most likely have small imperfections and differences from the original. But in exchange, it would be infused with the thoughts, will, and intent of the crafter. Sometimes this would make handcrafted items more comfortable than machine crafted 'perfect' items.

Creating the scripts for the nanites wasn't difficult since the NAT came with a well-designed interface, which required next to no explaining. There was also a tutorial, which would explain it in more detailed steps, but it was specially mentioned that it was only for those who had problems using the NAT, and since Ivan hadn't had any problems so far, he hadn't looked into it.

Following the steps on the interface, he first started the script recording and then directed a nanite. First, he moved it towards the iron rod, where he then scanned the first atom he arrived at. When the scan revealed that it was iron, he used the nanite to cut the connections and move the atom to a new slot according to the reference for the ingot.
He didn't understand how each of the steps worked, but this wasn't necessary either. The NAT and the programming of the nanites took care of these steps.
After positioning the atom, he then told the nanite to repeat the progress until no iron atoms were left at the position of the iron rod, or the ingot had been finished. Then he saved the script and ended the free mode.

As soon as he ended the free mode, a wave of exhaustion came over him. "Urgh.", he couldn't help but grunt. He hadn't realized how tiring it had been during the process, but now all that exhaustion hit him at the same time.
"Damn, that's much more exhausting than crafting that knife.", he exclaimed, while suppressing his falling eyelids.
If not for the pangs of hunger, he would have directly fallen asleep.
"And I haven't even started crafting the ingot. Would that be as exhausting?"
Thinking about it, filled him with fear. What would happen if he started executing the script and each atom would exhaust him, just like the one just now had? The NAT used a lot of nanites at the same time, so wouldn't he instantly die out of exhaustion?

Making his way to the kitchen in search of something fast to eat, he thought about it.
While eating some cold rice, he came to the decision that it was too dangerous for him to try, if the NAT didn't provide any fail-safes or options to improve the efficiency.

After filling his belly and getting rid of the hunger pangs, nothing kept him awake anymore. He just barely managed to reach his bed before falling asleep.


Surprisingly, even though he had felt that tired, he didn't sleep that long. He would have expected to only wake up when his alarm rings the next morning, but instead, it was still the same day when he woke up.
Feeling awake and full of energy again, he once again turned his focus towards the NAT.
Additional to the two options, "Free" and "Blueprint", there was now another option, which was "Scripts". In this section, the scripts he had made himself would be stored. He guessed that not every script could be called a blueprint. Thus scripts were something between free mode and blueprints.

After selecting the "Scripts" section a library similar to the "Blueprint" one appeared in his vision. Currently, there was only one script listed called, "Iron Rod to Iron Ingot". Besides the name and a small image showing the iron rod and iron ingot, there was also a number displayed. The number was 2 and by selecting the script he was able to see that this meant that there were two versions of the script.
One was the script he had created:
[[ Script: Iron Rod to Iron Ingot
Creator: Ivan King
Safety: Dangerous
Stability: Stable
Energy costs: Variable (depends on the raw material)
Input Material: Iron Rod (Tower of Challenge Floor 1 Drop)
Output: Iron Ingot (Standard)

A script for extracting an iron ingot out of an iron rod, which can be found on the first floor of the 'Tower of challenge' on the planet Terra.
]]
This was the full description of the script he had created and reading through it, some information about what the points mentioned, meant.
Most of them were self-explanatory, except for safety and stability. Safety was more important for him since it showed whether the use of the script was dangerous for the user. He guessed that this script was dangerous since it could sap the energy out of the user. After all, even a single molecule had taken so much energy. So how much would the full ingot use?
Stability on the other hand showed the risk of something going wrong during the process. A stable script could even be interrupted, while an unstable one might just lead to an explosion if interrupted.
The combination of those two aspects made it clear to Ivan that he shouldn't use the script.

Instead, he took a look at the other script, which he hadn't created himself.

[[ Script: Iron Rod to Iron Ingot
Optimization: A (Auto)
Creator: Ivan King
Safety: Safe
Stability: Stable
Energy costs: Variable (depends on the raw material)
Input Material: Iron Rod (Tower of Challenge Floor 1 Drop)
Output: Iron Ingot (Standard)

A script for extracting an iron ingot out of an iron rod, which can be found on the first floor of the 'Tower of challenge' on the planet Terra.
This script has been optimized by the integral software of the NAT to provide better safety and reduce energy consumption.
]]

There wasn't much difference between their description, but it meant a lot of difference for him. According to the description, the script had been optimized to increase safety and reduce energy consumption. And according to the standard usage of grades going from, A, B, C, D, E, F, a value of A for optimization meant that the change should be huge.

"Maybe now I can use it.", Ivan wondered. He then once again took a look at the safety evaluation and decided to risk it. Maybe it would once again consume a lot of energy or even fail to finish, leaving him unable to try the second floor as he had initially planned, but at least he wouldn't be in any danger.

Making his decision, he started the script, and once again he could feel the energy leaving his body. While this was going on, in his mind, he could observe the changes to the iron rod. It was slowly disappearing at the same time as an iron ingot appearing beside it. Just when he had the feeling that the last bit of his energy was running out, the iron rod disappeared fully and the iron ingot appeared in full.

[[ Congratulations, you have crafted an iron ingot using a self-developed script. You are the first person to create an item using a self-developed script. ]]

On a Monday just like any other, the world changes for Ivan and every other inhabitant of the planet.

After a voice announces the start of Experiment 37B, a new age starts. One that is focused on the dungeons and the futuristic tools that come with it.


Ivan is just another university student when the whole world changes. With the coming of the dungeons and the system, the world changes and the people change with it.

Just like many others, Ivan starts his new life. A life, that is full of dungeons, monsters, and growth. 
Follow him embarking on his journey.

Scarlet fidgeted in her chair as Debbie flipped through the printed manuscript. For a ten-year-old with no prior writing experience, the story was quite well written. It strangely reminded her of an old animated movie[1] that she personally found to be quite adorable.
Scarlet had a rather pure imagination and it was a pleasure to read it despite the grammatical issues here and there. The girl must have read many books for she was using many phrases she picked up that seemed a little too cliched for a piece of original work. If it was a school assignment to be graded, Debbie would not have hesitated to give her an A+ and send her home with a lollipop. Unfortunately, the girl wanted to be a professional writer. That meant that being good simply wasn't enough.
The tutor-governess looked up from the script and observed the puny creature before her and adjusted her glasses. Scarlet looked very nervous and even a little afraid. This took the ex-lawyer back to her teenage years when she was nothing more than a snotty brat who was only embarking on her journey to fame and freedom as an author. After many turns and tumbles, Debbie came to understand that the path of writing was more than fame and riches. It was difficult for one person to continuously seek out new experiences and inspiration to bring to the world authentic ideas without having everything sound almost exactly the same. As such, Debbie decided to leave her writing days behind as a memory that blazed with passion. The fire in her author heart was then channelled to become fertiliser for those who had grander ideas than hers. Debbie decided to become an editor for that very purpose.
"Hello Scarlet, I've heard a little about you from Mr Wilde. Won't you tell me more about yourself? I'm a little curious. Why would such a young girl like yourself be interested in such a boring hobby? Most kids your age would be more interested in sports or art or music... Some would prefer making friends and having fun instead of being cooped up in a room in front of a computer with additional self-imposed assignments to do. I don't know many children who would use the computer other than for assignment researching and gaming. You're the first child I know who wants to be a writer..."
The blogger blinked and looked at her hands. It was true. Most children would prefer doing other things. Even Alex preferred holding a paintbrush to a pen if she had a choice. Jasper was far more interested in the software applications on the computer than games, but Scarlet was only interested in the word document whenever she touched a laptop. Perhaps in the eyes of an adult, she was weird for having such a boring hobby.
"I just like reading and writing helps me get some of the things I couldn't say off my chest. I don't know who I can tell or talk to, but I just wish that someone in this big world can pick it up and read what I have to say. I'm not very good at communication..."
The editor put the script down and looked at the girl with seriousness. No wonder Wilmer was so worried about her. "Is there something you'd like to talk about then? I can listen to what you have to say..." she offered.
The feeling of having nobody to talk to about problems can really eat away at one's happiness. For a girl as young and as intelligent as Scarlet, this must be a really heavy burden to bear alone. Debbie didn't know what happened to Scarlet for her to be so guarded, but she heard bits and pieces of Scarlet's background from the CEO. The governess could only imagine what was going through this sweet child's mind while it all happened.
Scarlet made no attempt to say more and had her eyes downcast the whole time as if she was afraid of making eye contact. Debbie took the cue and didn't push any further. Instead, she changed her approach.
Scarlet was tense when Debbie reached for her bag. She didn't know what her tutor wanted when she took out a new notebook that had never been used before. The governess didn't say much as she pushed it across the table to Scarlet.
"I need time to read through the story you've written but I don't want you to be idle. This is going to be our secret communication diary, I hope you can take good care of it. I have approximately about another hour or so today so while I am reading through your manuscript, I would like you to decorate the journal and write the very first entry inside."
Scarlet took the notebook and looked at it. The book was a very common and relatively cheap kind that can be bought at any bookstore. There were single lined pages on the inside and it wasn't very thick, so Scarlet could easily carry it around in her school bag. The blogger vaguely remembered using notebooks like this back when she was in Keyman International for penmanship classes. Her teacher used to call it a Jotter Book. But the one Debbie passed her looked slightly nicer. It had a blank cover page made out of recycled pulp and had a lovely rough texture to the brown colour. It was clearly a product made by a company that believed in recycling. That gave Scarlet an inspiration and she asked permission to leave the room in search of decoration materials.
While Debbie appeared neutral on the surface, she was internally ecstatic about Scarlet's willingness to participate in the communication book. The tutor nodded and Scarlet hopped off her chair to find Claire. The penthouse might not have the materials she needed, but that shouldn't be a problem. Alex was quite the artist, so she could borrow the glue and colouring supplies she needed later.
"Claire," Scarlet knocked on the door to the kitchen. The maid was busy preparing ingredients for dinner when she heard a soft voice from the doorway.
"Hello Scarlet, how can I assist you?" the head maid quickly put away the carrots for the chef who was coming in ten minutes. It was rare for Scarlet to request anything from her so the head maid was slightly curious.
"Can I go downstairs for a little? I'll be back. This is for my classwork now with Ms Connor."
Claire was a little surprised. What kind of classwork would require Scarlet to go downstairs? 
"Why do you need to go downstairs? What kind of classwork has Ms Connor given you?"
Scarlet blushed a little and played with the end of her long side braid. "It's something I wanted to do, it's not really necessary. If it's too troublesome then I'll find another way to get it done. I'm sorry for disturbing you while you're very busy..."
Claire quickly denied it and held the girl by her hands before kneeling down to look at Scarlet who had her eyes to the floor.
"Look at me, Scarlet. I'm not angry or annoyed. I can make time for it, don't worry too much. I was just curious as to what kind of assignment it was. You don't usually enjoy going outside after all..."
Scarlet stole a peek at the serious maid's expression and looked around a little before leaning in to whisper her plans.
Claire smiled and ruffled the blogger's hair when she heard that. "I see. In that case, I shall have Sue or Tina to accompany you. I will also inform Mr Wilde about it just in case, if it's alright with you."
Scarlet brightened up at that and nodded before leaving to find her outdoor shoes. Claire watched the girl run off and reached for her phone. This new governess was making big waves and the head maid wasn't sure if it was a good or bad thing.
Still, if Scarlet was happy, then it's fine. That was all that mattered to her.
Claire waited for the phone to stop ringing and wondered how Mr Wilde would react to the good news. Debbie Connor might just be the lady who knew how to pull Scarlet out from that deep and dark hole she dug for herself.

I know it's a long break (more than a year) but I had to focus on my studies. Now into a 2-year internship with lots of free time in my hand. Thus I've decided to continue the novel, at the very least I can guarantee that I can keep writing for the next couple of years.

Guys, I'll officially upload the next new chapter in a couple of weeks; I'm editing all the chapters released, to improve the standard. Re-evaluation of the novel showed my standard of writing is weak, which's obvious given the fact that English is only my third language.   

I'm working on improving my writing skills but for the immediate results, an Editor software has been subscribed for premium.  

Readers are welcomed to re-read the chapters edited, all edited chapters will have the date of editing in the 'author's thoughts'. I'll be editing at least three chapters every day.

I know many readers might be angry or disappointed with the inconsistency and huge break for which I extend my humble apology to all the readers. And will be extremely grateful for all those re-joining the ride and thanks for reading my book.

Nithin sat at the back of public bus, feeling frustrated over happened today. He was an employee of a software company with a not so bad monthly income. He had been liking a lady for 2 years but he lacked the courage to confess. Because, the lady he liked was his boss; he always felt a bit inferior around her. Still, that didn't stop him from getting infatuated with her.

After building up courage for a long time, he finally planned to confess his feelings today. But when he was about to do so, he witnessed his boss mercilessly rejecting a guy who was much better than himself. 

His boss was always friendly with him, so he never noticed her cold side. After experiencing it for first time, The courage he built up for a long time instantly deflated. He wanted to confess but he was afraid she would reject him similarly and laugh at him. In the end, he abondoned the idea.

Nithin couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought about it. Taking out his earphones, he plugged them into his mobile phone and started watching videos on HuLalaLa ( a platform similar to YouTube.) to lighten up his mood.

Girlfriend pregnancy prank on her boyfriend

Actress xxx caught in affair?

Is there something going on between them?

Anchor Rama Devi confessed that she was a  ???

After a watching a few videos, his mood didn't lighten if anything, he felt more depressed.

Suddenly a video caught his eye, which immediately piqued his interest. The video's duration was only around 1 minute and the video seems to be uploaded recently, so there were not many views, likes and comments. The thing that caught his attention was it's title

Can you touch nose with your tongue?

"Touching nose with tongue? Interesting."

Nithin muttered to himself and he subconsciously opened his mouth, tried to touch his nose with tongue. After trying a few times, he gave up when he noticed the odd glances of other passengers inside the bus. 

So someone gonna touch their nose with tongue? or may be something else? With his new found curiosity, he started playing the video.

The video focused on a stage, which seemed to be the center of a huge building. An extremely handsome young man confidently walked up to the stage. 

"Hello guys, I'm Arjun, Arjun Vishwa Aryan. I'm gonna ask you a question. Can you guys touch nose with your tongue?"

Then the camera shifted to a dozen or so students making funny faces while trying to do that. It seems like none seemed to be able to do it. 

Then camera once again focused on the young man on the stage. 

"Now watch me do it."

At this moment, the video was cut. After a short delay, it once again showed the same young man. In addition to him, there was also a lady whose face couldn't be seen clearly before him. 

The young man opened his opened his mouth and stretched his tongue out. Nithin was looking forward to see if the young man can really touch his nose with his tongue but suddenly some thing happened, which caught him off guard.

Instead of touching his own nose, the young man seemed to touch the lady's nose? The video ended here.

At first Nithin confused, but in a few seconds, his eyes lit up as understood the logic. A smile blossomed on his face as thought how cunning the young man was. After watching the video, his mood improved significantly.

He immediately liked the video and commentted below it.

Nithin_123
Cool bro... Accept this brother's respect !!!

May be I should prank boss with this? I don't think she will get mad over a little prank. Even if she does, at most she will be a bit angry. Who knows, I might be able to kiss her if possible, as Nithin thought about it, he felt more happy and he started sharing the video's link to his friends and colleagues.

 .....

Meanwhile, Inside the SKS studios

Arjun narratted his concept loudly and fluently without any stutters. The Santoor Soap ad was just one minute video, It didn't take him more a than a few minutes to finish his speech. 

At first, expept for Sophia, no one was interested in his so called better script, especially when they heard that the main lead was a female.

Using a female's body and sensual beauty to attract youths, this is the most popular and common formula for a soap commercial. This is the reason why they choose a male lead instead a female, to be different from the norm. 

Now Arjun once again mentioned a female lead, their interest further dropped. In the end he was just a youngster like any other typical youth, this is what they all thought.

But as they listened further, their ears couldn't help but perked up. By the time Arjun finished his speech, everyone including Sophia, Nithya, Shankar, Shankar's team who stood behind him were stunned.

The concept Arjun told doesn't have a big wow factor, nor does it have fancy dialogues. It was a very normal and simple scene but for some reason, this simple scene gave everyone a unique and refreshing feeling.

Compared to this one, the previous concept was simply shit. Most importantly, this young man prepared this kind of script in just few minutes, this is what everyone found it hardly to believe. 

This automatically proved he was many times better than an entire professional team in this aspect. If it is someone else, they might feel uncomfortable about it, but Shankar is different. He started clapping his his hands with admiration from the bottom of the heart. With him being first, others also followed the suit. A young man who wasn't 20 yet, In addition to his handsome face, he was even gifted with this kind of talent, everyone felt a bit envious.

Hearing the claps and appreciation from around, Arjun felt a bit happy but he didn't show it on his face. He was about say some impressive words but a voice interrupted him.

"Are you sure this script was free and you don't want anything in return?" 

Nithya asked excitedly with shining eyes. Even though she didn't had a good impression of Arjun, she has to agree that this guy is very talented in this aspect. Everyone could only feel this concept was good but none could imagine it's real value.

As the assistant of president of SKS entertainment, she could analyse it's impact more precisely than others. 

This script, it has an entirely different approach towards commercials from the ones at present. After it makes it's entry, it will definitely open the door to a new world of commercials !

It's true value is priceless !

It will be a huge loss if they miss this kind of opportunity, so without any shame and hesitation, Ananya directly this question. She is the kind of person who doesn't hesitate to put her life on the line if the matter involved her Madam's interests.

Being interrupted in middle Arjun was a bit dissatisfied, but he still replied calmly.

"You can use it for free. I don't need anything in return." 

I really don't need anything in return as long as I am not forced to act in that shitty commercial, he thought inwardly.

His words changed Nithya's impression of him. She nodded her head at Arjun gratefully while feeling a bit guilty. This kind of concept is really priceless, wasn't she a bit too selfish asking it for free? I will definitely send him proper amount of money after everything settled, She vowed inwardly and turned to Sophia.

"Madam, since the concept is settled, should we postpone the shooting for tomorrow. Since the scene wasn't much difficult, we will definitely finish everything by night."

"Postone? why?"

Sophia asked rather absentmindedly. While Nithya and everyone else were appreciating Arjun's concept, she was thinking about something entirely different.

Nithya was confused at Sophia's reply. Of course they had to postpone. With the change of script, they had to find a proper location. Oh, according to Arjun's script, they had a few such locations inside SKS Studious. So the location is not a big problem but

"Madam, we need atleast a day to find a suitable female model-"

"Why do we have to find a new model? don't we already have one?"

A devilish smile appeared on Sophia as looked at Arjun.

Already have one?

Nithya didn't understand her meaning, she felt puzzled at first but as she followed Sophia's gaze and looked at Arjun, she realized what her madam meant. She couldn't help but smile along.

Director Shankar who heard their conversation also looked at Arjun with weird expression.

Suddenly Arjun who was rejoicing about avoiding a misfortune had a bad premonition in his heart.

Arjun picked up a strange mobile phone that only had 2 apps: YouTube, Google. The next day he woke up, he found himself in a parrallel world. Surprisingly, the phone also accompanied him to this world.

With the cheat-like phone and a handsome face, Arjun found himself the way to realise his dreams thus becomes an ultimate plagoriz- *ahem World Famous Super Star.
