Glossary

A/N: Obviously, there’s spoilers in here. Don’t read it if you just started reading the novel.

Terminology

– Hosts: Living beings of all races taken in from countless different Worlds and Realities by the System to nurture. They are each assigned a Potential Value ranging from F- to S+ the moment they join and are made to participate in an Initiation and a Tutorial before being allowed to climb the Plateaus. They all possess a Status Window, the ability to level up, and distribute Attribute and Skill Points to grow stronger.

– Local: Living beings that were created by the System or were born in it. They do not possess the ability to manipulate their status like Hosts do and can only train to achieve proficiencies and skills. Children born from Locals and Hosts are called Descendants and share a Host’s privileges. Additionally, Hosts have the special privilege to hand out Quests to Hosts of which the rewards will be provided by them; Skills, Items, Money, Titles, Experience.

– Wilden: The name used to address the monsters birthed by the System. They all possess the ability to grow stronger with limited control over their status. They also are required to learn their abilities on their own but they can be fostered to higher stages by becoming a Host’s Pet.

– Plateaus: Pocket worlds that make the structure of the System. Each Plateau has different characteristics but it is only at every 5 Plateaus that the landscape changes drastically, ranging from the plainest of meadows to the most barren of deserts.

– Talys: Currency used within the System by both Locals and Hosts. There exist two variations to it called Teilys and Tur. The former is the currency used in the Shops made exclusively for Pet Creatures and the latter is the physical version of Talys, employed during special trades and when a Local or Host wishes to carry or stash their money.

– Trials: Tests that Hosts must go through to promote from one Plateau to another. These trials require to be completed within three years or else the Host will be severely punished.

– Ordeals: Challenges randomly generated by the System. They include all sorts of tasks of which the completion will offer rewards depending on the Host’s performance.

– Dungeons: Structures with a varying number of floors, with each floor generally harder than the previous one. The last Floor is where the Boss awaits and it is known that each Dungeon has special hidden conditions to trigger a Hidden Boss. Bear in mind that monsters within are not considered Wilden and can only vary in strength thanks to the difficulty chosen upon entry. Every time a Dungeon is completed, it will resurrect every monster it held.

– Dungeon Tears: Occasionally, Dungeons do not have a physical presence in a Plateau and are located within a locked dimension. In which case, it can only be accessed through a Dungeon Tear; an oval dimensional portal.

– Reset: Every month, the System will conduct a Reset on every Plateau. Dungeons will change locations and parameters, Ordeals will disappear and then be generated again, damages to the landscape will be fixed, corpses will be cleaned, Wilden will be repopulated if the count turns out to be too low, and other things might get deleted by the System due to their lack of usefulness for the Hosts’ growth.

The only way to evade the Reset is to claim land with rare Items and if a society is created, the Reset will go through several criteria before deeming that place resourceful enough to be preserved. Dungeons, Ordeals, Trials that do not change after a Reset are labeled as ‘Recurring’.

– Pavilion: The most powerful organization in the System, originally founded by Locals but eventually co-managed with Hosts. They possess valuable members that made it an essential place for Hosts to exchange their goods, buy or sell equipment, take on Quests, and indirectly communicate with the System’s core program on special occasions. It is also the only relay point to travel from one Plateau to another. In the past, before its creation, only Locals were able to ferry Hosts across Plateaus and that became the main reason why the Pavilion was created.

Pavilions exist on every Plateau and most towns and cities. However, on each Plateau, there is a main Pavilion built around a Terminal, the access point of the System’s inner workings. It can be accessed from any Plateau through a dimensional link that connects them all.
