Disclaimer: I don't own The Gamer or anything related to it. This is my first fanfiction so I would like it if you all could help me improve through reviews.

My name is Jihan Han and I was working on my homework as my mother told me to go get some Tofu. I heard her but would have liked to ignore her but that became impossible as a screen appeared in front of me.

THE QUEST IS CREATED

I looked at it and for some reason was calm and not freaking out as I should. So I calmly tapped the box to see what would happen and a new one appeared.

TASK FROM MOM: GO GET SOME TOFU! The Gamer's mom wants Tofu for cooking. Let's be quick and get her some Tofu!

Limit Time: 1 Hour

Reward: Exp. 500 Increase of the closeness with mom.

Fail penalty: Nagging mom. Decrease of mom's faith in you.

ACCEPT (Y) / DENY (N)

After reading it I thought about it for a moment and came to the conclusion that I would have gone to get the Tofu anyway so there's no harm in accepting the quest and it's a good way to find out what's going on. I clicked on the Y and the screen disappeared.

On the way to the market, I thought about these weird screens and it seemed like a screen that would appear in an RPG. So does that mean that my life turned into a game?

My theory seemed more and more realistic as I picked up some Tofu from the market and a new screen appeared.

You acquired the quest item [TOFU]

I swiped the screen away and wondered if every time I do something a new screen will pop up. That would be a real pain in the ass so let's hope not. But now one thing is for sure. I've got a weird power.

Now at home, I shouted "I'm Back"

as I walked through the front door straight to the kitchen where my mom was.

My mom name is Jeongsook Han she's 40 looks like she's in her mid-twenties.

She grinned as she saw me "Give me the Tofu". As soon as I gave her the Tofu a new screen appeared.

Quest completed

GO GET SOME TOFU

Time Limit: 32min/1hour

Reward: 50exp. 500 Increase of the closeness with mom.

That has to be the final clue to prove that my life is a game but is this even real or am I just dreaming and I will wake up in a few moments. I waited for a few seconds but I felt pretty stupid standing in front of my mom and staring into nothingness. So that rules a dream out.

I shrug and leave it for now because I can't really explain it right now and I don't want to stand in front of my mom anymore because she's looking at me as if I was ill.

As I sat down at the table and watched mom prepare our food I noticed that something floated above her head.

The first thing that came to my mind as I read it was "huh". Really poetic I know. But above her head floated a title like in games but her's was like someones who was hiding his skills.

《?》

LV? Jeongsook H.

"Maybe mom has a special power too" I wondered for a moment but then I shook my head because I couldn't really ask her.

What if she doesn't have powers then she'll think I'm crazy and that's the last thing I want.

So I quietly ate my food and went to my room.

Once I was in my room I thought about my power or should I say my life and came to the conclusion that by saying the right phrase I could get a quest or like in a game I would see my inventory and stats.

I tried it and said inventory and truly a screen appeared with a miniature version of me with slots for equipment on the left and an inventory with many slots on the right.

Swiping the screen away I wondered if there was some kind of tutorial like in most games as my thought was finished a new screen appeared.

Do you want to do the tutorial?

You have questions about your power the tutorial will answer it.

ACCEPT(Y) / DENY(N)

Immediately Y was pressed and many more screens appeared.

The Tutorial

Your powers are named THE GAMER and it did what it said it turned your life into a game.

You are able to level up and to raise your stats you'll see them when you say "stats". As an example, your stats will be shown right now.

You are able to gain skills that you can level up as well they would look like this:

[Gamers Mind (passive) LV: Max]

Allows the user to calmly and logically think things through. Allows a peaceful state of mind. Immunity to psychological status effects.

Then there is the options menu where you can change some settings of the game here's an example:

Auto Dungeon entry: on

I decided to turn it off because if I enter a high-level dungeon I could die right now.

Auto Dungeon entry: off

If you want to know where your powers came from they came from Gaia the earth herself. She sometimes gives people powers they are called natural ability users there are many of them across the world. Then there are the acquired fighters they got their powers by training.

All of then live in what is known as the Abyss a dangerous place where it is possible to be killed if someone's not strong enough.

There is also one rule someone has to follow or they will be killed by Gaia. The rule is that someone from the Abyss is not allowed to have a huge impact on the normal world while using their powers.

That's all you have to know have fun playing the game.

As I finished reading I grinned my powers are awesome but internally I was worried the Abbys sounded dangerous but I was determined to survive.

In bed, my last thought before I drifted off to sleep was "I will have to level up". With that, I slept with a smile on my face.

So that was it with the first chapter. If someone wants to give me feedback they are more than welcomed to do it. With that, I bid adjö.
