Chapter 6: Chapter 6 - The Guide and What now?
"What do you mean by the owner's strength? 10km at level 2? Does that mean we could possibly have the size of a planet if one's strong enough?" (Eliza)
[It's a matter of time that all humans will be transported here, with all of humanity in the Tower, the gods have no use for the abandoned space outside, therefore, the tower converts the unnecessary space outside and makes use of it here.]
"So this place is effectively a new universe?" (Eliza)
[Yes.]
"What are ways to access this safe zone?" (Leonard)
[To access the safe zone of a floor, one must travel to that floor via the menu and move to the safe zone by pressing the option, or beat the floor 1 quest again. However, one of the perks of the floor owners is that you could access it whenever you want, even if you're in the middle of conquering a floor that you haven't conquered.]
"What are the other perks of the floor owners?"
The moment I asked that, Gan suddenly flinched and stood there for a few seconds before he started talking again.
[I was just notified of a change from the Tower, The max party limit and the floor owners limit have been increased to 5 because of your friend's death over there. And the information regarding floor ownership and everything else that normal players are allowed to see has been put in the [Guide] option in your menu, my help won't be needed anymore, so goodbye.] Gan said and blasted to the sky in a light beam.
'Oh, sorry, Howard, it looks like saving you isn't in the plan anymore.' I thought to myself, I would rather let someone die than see the tower full of fives and tens with a party limit of four.
'Let's check this [Menu]' A blue screen appeared in front of me.

I move the hand of both of my bodies to press [Guide] in my respective perspectives and a different screen popped up, overlapping the menu screen.
_________________________
1 - The Tower
-You are eligible to be given access to this guide to get you to know more about the tower.
-Go climb up the floors, and may the gods bless your journey to the 1000th floor.
2 - Status
-Status is a way for you to learn more about yourself, it includes everything you will ever need.
-Level are....
-Stats are the five values that govern your overall abilities.
+Strength: This stat governs your overall strength, which is balanced throughout your body.
+Intelligence: This stat governs your thinking speed and how strong your mind is.
+Endurance: This stat governs your overall endurance and, most importantly, your vigor.
+Dexterity: This stat governs your overall dexterity, flexibility, agility, and manipulation.
+Perception: This stat governs your five senses and intuitive abilities.
-Stat points are a way to gauge your stats. You can gain stat points by allocating them upon leveling up, or you can train your stats by doing related abilities.
-Stats ranks are....
2. Safe zone
-Safe zone, the place of safety, though it is technically not all safe since you can still die within the confines of this space, not by monsters, you were already safe from that when you entered the safe zone.
-Safe zones are places you go to when you complete the main quest of a floor, which will result in a full heal, however, the full heal only happens once per floor, if you beat that floor again, you won't receive a full heal.
-You can only access the safe zone of a floor through the Menu with two Requirements: There is no ongoing main quest and you have not engaged in combat in the last 10 minutes.
3. Party
-The Tower recommends that the players always be in a party with another player, not only does everyone have a higher chance to survive, but everyone within the party will receive individual rewards when the main quest of a floor is completed. No matter their contribution, the important thing is that the floor is completed.
....
10. Floor owning
-If you own a floor, you are 1 of the 5000 players who are floor owners. Floor ownership can be passed down to a successor or to the person who killed the floor owner within the confines of a floor. In a situation where a floor owner dies outside of that floor, the Tower will choose the strongest human in that floor's safe zone at that moment as the floor owner.
-There are two perks given to a Floor owner:
+Move to the Safe Zone: The player can move to the safe zone of the floor that you own anytime, anywhere, without losing anything.
+Minor deity: Within the boundary of the safe zone, you became a deity with the power of creation, you can create, remove, and manipulate non-sentient things within your safe zone at the cost of your vigor.

After I finished reading through the relevant information from the guide, I looked at Jake.
"Alright, Jake, what do you think we should do?" (Leonard)
"I think we should bury Mr Howard." Jake pointed at Howard's corpse with his head cracked open, the cause of his death is most likely from that. Jake then pointed at both of my bodies and said, "And you guys' clothes are all torn up and dirty."
"Oh." I looked at my clothes and assessed their state. It was bad. Eliza was wearing casual clothes, and considering the state I found myself in, I think I was going about on the night street and got killed. I'm still in the clothes that I went to bed in the night before, which are just normal casual clothes. There are a few dirty spots here and there from the stone thrown at me, but Leo's clothes look a bit better than Eliza's. Now that I think about it, why do I only have my clothes? Where are other things, like phones and stuff, that we might have carried before we got here?
'Oh well, there's no point thinking about that.'
"What do you think we should do to fix our clothes? It's not like there's a clothes shop nearby or any that existed here at all."
"Maybe wash them or something."
"Blood that sticks to clothes will almost never fade completely, even with bleach, I don't think there will be any ways to clean that with what we have access to right now." (Eliza)
"Well, we should at least make a shelter here first, I still have the sharp rock" (Leonard)
I summoned a rock and some sticks from my inventory, Jake looks at my bodies confusedly.
"You guys both have inventory? where's mine?"
'Oh, I still forgot that Jake' still here with us.
"Well, the inventory is my unique ability, let's say that we have a unique ability that allows us to share a skill between ourselves."
"So, like a couple's skill?"
"Yeah, something like that."
"So you guys were lovers before going here?"
'No, but'
"You can say it's something like that."
"Wow, you two must be some kind of fated lovers to have the Tower give you a unique ability that allows you two to share a skill between yourselves."
"Now that I think about it, I've got something else to do, so wait here for a bit, we will come back later to work on the shelter. You can use this time to do whatever you want, but I will need help with building later." (Leonard)
I went to a secluded area outside of Jake's view and exchanged Leonard's clothes with Eliza since we have the same stature and our clothes fit each other. The reason I did this is because it is uncomfortable for other people to look at my chest as Eliza. And Of course, only the outside clothes were exchanged and nothing else was done.
