"What the fuck? Am I...floating?"
"Welcome traveler" an unsettling, monotone voice interrupts his thoughts.
"You will have questions, which frankly I don't care enough to answer so listen closely and we can wrap this up."
"You are being reincarnated, and you will be sent to another dimension in order to take part in an experiment of ours."
The voice came from all around, unable to be pinpointed.
"It seems you have no questions, On your way then." The voice rambled giving Liam no time to interject.

"The fuck? Hold on a sec-"
Liam began to glow and dissolve into particles as said panic and fear consumed him.
"W-Wait! Who are you?"
Liam shouted with no reply, just a shout into the ether. No noise, no echo. He disappears.

Liam opens his eyes once more to the sight of a park square, a crowd of people all gathered in a circle around an obelisk.
Did everyone else here get brought here by that person too?
The answer didnt have to simmer for long before that same monotonous voice began to emanate from the obelisk.
"Silence yourselves. Now that you have all been brought here and briefed on why you are here we shall begin the class selection."
"Huh?" Liam perked up.
"Briefed? Classes? Did I draw the short stick and get a shitty Reincarnation tour guide?"
A slightly older man next to Liam noticed his confusion. "What's the matter kid? I'm Jason by the way."
"Nice to meet you, I'm Liam, I'm mainly confused because my 'guide' or whatever I talked to didn't tell me anything about why or what I was sent here to do."
"That's rough kid, but from what I got from most o' their nonsense was, survive. Get stronger and survive, cause we ain't leavin' unless we climb the trials of..." he paused. "I forget the name"
"Trials?"
As Liam attempted to get a better explanation out of the man with a thick country accent he was interrupted by a panel appearing within his vision.
[Greetings User, to the Tower of Trials no.271, codename: Tento]
[Status Panel]
[User: Liam]
[Level: 1]
[Class: N/A]
[Skills: Language Mastery lv.1]
[Stats: Collapsed (click to expand)]
[Exp: 0% / 100%]
Gasps and chattering of disbelief was heard all over the park square. So it wasn't just him who could see this thing? But I can't see other people's screens.
[Now selecting beginning class, may luck be with you.]
Lights simmered beneath people in the crowd as their classes were selected. There was no control over what class you got. Was it random or do our lives up to now determine what we can be good at? The only information I've got about these mysterious entities is that they are incredibly vague or at least in my first hand experience.
[Class has been selected, please check your status panel. You can summon the system by thinking the word 'System']
[Please enjoy your time on Tento]
