The world was dark and breathless.

There was nothing around.

No sound.

No touch.

It was absolutely still to the point that no breath was taken.

Aside from the negative, it was peaceful.

Like floating into nothingness.

No thoughts.

No worries.

Just absolute peace and lightness.

Until it was interrupted by a sound.

Then before the eyes of the comfortable entity surrounded by nothing, was a green screen.

It was strange, knowing what this screen was. Knowing what the words on it meant. Now the question was, what would the name for this character’s trait be?

It seemed right, not much memory before the darkness but this trait seemed right.

The world filled in with trees and greenery, sound starting to rush in like waves from the ocean. Then momentary silence before sound was stable.

Birds chirping.

The wind blowing lightly in the crisp green leaves of the trees and grass.

Squishing sounds.

The world was big.

The different transparent colored orbs were squishing about happily.

It was next to peaceful.

Tutorial?

More importantly is this thing going to remain persistent?

Well, may as well learn about this... world.

It was better in darkness.

Oh, wonderful.

Is it one of those things where you have think the word and it’s magically there?

Lame.

Oh, wonderful!

Everything needs to be unlocked before advancement.

This is probably going to get old fast. Taking a quick glance around the trees covered most of the blue sky, the squishing sound was from those colorful transparent orbs. Did that one just smile? Well, they were a Slime after all it’s probably being friendly.

Gross.

Nothing like owning a pet. What’s with the coin? There’s also limited space here, what could they want with such a small box? Well, best not to travel heavy so this will work out. Actually why travel?

Tamers?

Great, stuck with this name for awhile until someone comes by with the right class and changes it. Should have paid more attention. Why is that thing getting closer? It’s huge.

Useless information about a damn coin. Slow moving Slime, this one is Orange, also looks old.

Great, more things to do, maybe ignoring the old Orange Slime it would go away? Worth a shot. Why does everything require effort? Starting to feel heavy.

Name: UNTAMEABLE

LVL: 1 HP: 20 MP: 15

ATK: 5 DEF: 4 SPD: 6

SKILLS:

- SPEAK: Talk to other SLIMEs.

EQUIPMENT:

NONE

The more Untamable looked at it the more worried they got, they start out as a Level 1 Slime with nothing more to protect them than to talk to another Slime. Truly there was someone out there laughing at them for the misgivings they’ve been dealt. The only thing left to do was finish the darn Tutorial.

Perfect, with this button the world is a friendlier place to live. That old Slime is still making its way here. Not moving from this spot unless necessary. Although it is a little disrespectful to the old Slime.

One more Quest and see what the old Slime wants.

Now what’s this? More useless Coins and what to do with a Skill Point? Why need them? Just a useless Slime out in the middle of nowhere with other useless Slimes. Is it because of the Tamable aspect?

Great, who would want a Slime?

No one wants a Slime as a companion. All Slimes are good for is being killed and gaining EXP.

Well, looking at this tree or whatever it seems there are a lot of routes to go.

Warrior, Mage, Magician, Archer. Oh great, there’s more beyond that!

What is a Dead Walker?

Apocalyptist?

Reviver?

There’s a Bartender?

What are all these things?

That looks to be over 50 things, what is this under them?

It branches?!

Oh no.

Is there a cheat sheet to see what the end thing is? Is there even an end to it?

Whatever, just finish the Quest and use the stupid Skill Point.

Actually... logically thinking, the least amount of work to do the better.

Warrior requires too much muscle and movement.

Mage and Magician requires using your head a lot.

Archer seems to be the least amount of effort. Just shoot a Bow and be done with it. Or no... no arms. Also it requires focus.

What does the end look like, actually nah, just pick whatever. It’s not going to change much of anything really.

Just a Slime.

A Slime can’t do much other than squish about.

Speaking of, that Old Slime is finally here but there just smiling? All that can be seen are the eyes. Sighing, the pick was easy Archer. Since Slimes have no arms it can’t use a Bow and if no Bow is used the class is useless. The same could be said about Warrior since they mostly hold a Sword, but Warriors could use other things to help them.

Yeah, it was perfect. This was an easier task than anything-

Starring at the wall of text going off the green screen was... headache inducing. What even is this? What are words?

Well at least it fixed itself, but having that many Points was worrying. Having to go into the Menu and click the Skill Tree, urgh, getting tired just thinking about it. Isn’t there something to help along the way like an Auto Clicker?

Oh the world does listen! Now nothing to click or worry about for the rest of the Lifetime.

Less things to worry about now, don’t need to keep opening the menu and selecting those points. Sounds tedious. So refreshing.

Very strange that the system was broken. Don’t these things run smoothly? Or was this a beta thing? Well, it’s more strange that knowing these words in this world... actually knowing the out of place- actually never mind. Getting tired, and this Old Slime won’t leave.

Great.

Just great.

Can’t this thing go any faster? Or just go Silent?

The sad look on this Old Slime was indeed heartbreaking but then it turned to a look of determination and once again approached with the same Quest.

Turn the stupid Auto Select off if it’s just going to be annoying!

The Old Slime sat next to Untamable and the final words the Old Slime said “The journey before you is long young one, take this with you and may it help you along the way.”

If Slimes want to Merge let them, sounds troublesome that they would want to ask each and every time.

Finally, that was annoying. It doesn’t seem like anything else wants attention, just a quiet place in the forest with Slimes everywhere. Blue, Red, Orange, Pink, Purple, Yellow... no Green Slimes, odd. Well, doesn’t really matter what colors are out there, just knowing that they won’t be bothered any time soon was enough. Its time for a nap as well, the Tutorial was exhausting.

A Level 1 Tamable Archer Slime with no weapons to speak of and only two useless skills. Speak and Merge. Also useless collars and coins. What will become of the Skill Points?

Tsk.

Just rest, everything will be sorted out soon. There’s a lot of bugs for this MIDNIGHT WORLD. Best to rest, rest.

Closing their eyes finally, the world was once again shrouded in darkness. The ever sweet darkness, the noise fading away in gentle cotton. It was so peaceful, so relaxing, a nice long rest was in order.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
