Once I was finished with gathering the information that I thought might be useful, I went ahead and left The Sky.
Once I was back on Earth, it was around dinner time, so I ate with my family. That night, no trial occurred, since I hadn't bought access, and instead got the {Garden of Opportunities}. However, the next day, I waited till my parents were up, then teleported back. I decided to start trying to find a way to level up, since otherwise, I would have to wait nine more days to reach level two.
It seemed that there were no ways, at least at the point where I was, so I decided to explore my area a bit more. Honestly, there was nothing. Unless you counted the grass.
With no leads, and not much to do, I opted to enter the {Garden of Opportunities}. Even though it was what could be called an overgrown yard, I could feel potential, almost as if it was a tangible item. To distract myself, I opted to clean the area out.
Then came an issue, how would I get trash bags? As far as I knew, only I could move between the area. This would definitely become an issue. A big one. As I was pondering this predicament, it hit me. Literally. I facepalmed.
The solution was obvious. Why not use the skill one something else? Since I had that, I decided to test it. After teleporting back, I went to the kitchen, told my parents what my plan was, grabbed a few trash bags, and focused on using the skill on them. I ended up teleporting myself, but I had an idea.
I quickly teleported back, and then thought about teleporting the trashbags, then used the skill. I think it was a success. The bags at least disappeared. After teleporting back, they, in fact, were there, next to me.
Then, I got what I was waiting for.
**********
{Island Salary: Earned 10 XP and 1 IP}
**********
Once I got the notice of the {Island Salary} notification, I turned and ran over to the {Cave of Dreams}. Quickly selecting the {Yes} option as soon as I was asked if I wanted to purchase access, I was then given a new message.
**********
{-Invis- has bought access to the Cave of Dreams.}
{User has gained 1 IP}
**********
"Huh? Didn't I just buy access? Shouldn't the IP be gone?" I asked, confused yet again. "Oh, wait. Since the {Cave of Dreams} is a service, and I am technically the owner, I get the proceeds?"
**********
{Correct.}
**********
"Another notification?" I said, turning to inspect the new notice. "Wait. What? The system is sentient?"
**********
{No. I am a side effect of your class. I'm known as the AI assistant. Also known as the Artificial Island Assistant.}
**********
"Uh, alright?" I responded. "What can you do?"
**********
{Answer questions. That's it for now, as you level up, so will I}
**********
"I see... Well, it's getting late, and I'm excited to try out the Dream Trial" I decided.
