AN: I still own nothing, it wouldn't change in just one chapter. Anything you recognise is probably not mine.
With my gamer system, professions worked differently from systems I had seen before. For example, before I got the mechanic profession I had the electrical engineer profession.
I got this profession after the skill electrical engineering reached level 5. My class changed after my mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, my computer science and IT skills all reached level 5.
After getting new skills like biotechnology and programming, the level of my class increased. It also increased when creating new technology and just dabbling with mechanics.
Reaching level 47 had taken a lot of work. Mechanics needed a lot of materials meaning a lot of money meaning even more work.
Creating things that already existed allowed me to slowly amass experience to increase my level but it wasn't enough for me. In the marvel verse, anything could happen.
So I tried to be as innovative as possible which wasn't hard since the system counted 'new technology' as anything that didn't exist in this universe. Meaning I could just steal ideas from the multiple other fiction and possible real universes that I knew about.
'Like this one.' I thought while looking at my biggest achievement in the form of an extremely small machine. Its basic information then appeared in front of me in the form of the game screen.
=
Nanobot 1.0
A robot made up of nanomaterials and a microchip that allows it to be part of a network of nanobots connected to a main computer that controls it all.
=
This idea was stolen from Big Hero 6 the animated movie. I felt the microbots had a lot of potential and after seeing iron mans nano suit it's pretty obvious how overpowered that stuff is.
They made it seem way more simple than it actually is though. The nano transmitter which was supposed to allow me to control all the nanobots with my mind was almost impossible for me to build.
The technology needed to do that was called BCI(brain-computer interface) which would allow the microchips inside the nanobots to read my brain waves, translate them and perform the task. All this while every no hot needed to be connected to the other and connected to my brain, it was way too advanced even for Wakanda technology.
For now, I could only use simple technology like controlling all of them with my phone which made them useless on the battlefield.
'Hmm...maybe I could make an AI similar to Jarvis that could help me with the controls.' I thought and suddenly my watch vibrated and a holographic screen appeared on it.
"...my name is Tony Stark and I'm not afraid of you. I know you're a coward, and I've decided..." The legend himself, Tony Stark said as he dramatically removed his glasses.
"That you've just died."
The video then switched back to the reporter at the news station who then analysed the situation.
"...the statement by the billionaire, avenger and New York hero left people with questions about his intentions. Some say his recklessness could lead to severe repercussions..."
'I guess Tony is about to lose his home.' The events of iron man 3 were already underway and Stark had just given away his address meaning his house was about to be turned into rubble.
'I wonder...if I could steal extremis. Get the bioengineering skill and fix it then I'd get a huge power boost.' I thought while considering the fact that the time chamber could take forever to create.
'Is it worth it though?'
I wasn't strong enough to go against people with the virus just yet and I wasn't at the level to get involved with ironman-level threats. Taking that risk could lead to me getting killed.
"Plus, what excuse could I come up with for going to America?" I muttered out quietly.
Wakandans couldn't just leave their country for no reason. Especially someone like me who was a part of the military research.
'Maybe take a vacation from work? I mean Christmas is close and I have no family so taking a vacation can be a good excuse to leave.'
The next day came and I went to work. We proceeded with the norm.
"So, what are you planning to do for Christmas?" Shuri asked as we walked towards the training grounds.
The whole military needed to be trained through combat, even the researchers. Shuri was royalty so even though she looked weak I knew that she could probably beat me in a fight if our stats were equal.
=
Shuri
Level: 15
Age: 16
Race: Human.
=
'But our stats aren't equal.'
Every time I levelled up I would receive 2 stat points and 4 of my stats would increase by 1 point. Charm would increase by 1 point for every 2 levels. Meaning I got around 6 stat points per level and it would be 7 every 2 levels.
Other people would only get 1 to every stat but it wasn't as balanced as mine. For example, even though I couldn't see them I could estimate that Shuri's strength and agility should be around 6 or 7 but her intelligence would be close to mine.
Meaning that a normal person's stat points would be concentrated into 1 or 2 main attributes. And if I'm counting right it should be about 4 stats per level which all increase 1 stat.
'But well, no one else has quantifiable stats so I'm not really sure.'
My stats were only quantifiable because of my gamer's body skill. With just a thought I made the main menu appear. 3 things were shown on it, [Status, [Skills, and [Store]. The last one was currently grey and had lvl 25 written next to it.
With another thought, I chose the 'skills' option and a list showed up.
=

=
I ignored the rest and looked at the information on gamers body.
=
Gamer's body
A skill that allows you to live your life like a game. Your attributes are quantifiable and points can increase them.
=
Simple and short. It had no other effects except qualifying my attributes and allowing me to increase them with points.
It made me wonder if another person learned the gamer's body skill, would they be able to use points to increase their stats without the system. So if they were somehow able to get points could they use them?
"I was planning to go to America. I'm not sure if they would allow it though." I answered while we reached the training grounds. "You?" I asked, turning to look at her.
"I'm sure they'll allow it. As long as you break none of our rules then leaving for a short while is fine. I..." She said pointing at herself dramatically. "Am going to spend time with my family as usual..." Then I could hear a subtle change in her tone. "Although I would have liked to go on vacation somewhere."
I could see a small sparkle in her eyes as if she was expecting something.
"Would anyone even allow the princess to leave the country?" I asked with a smirk.
I could see her disappointment when I asked the question and honestly I didn't understand why. It was obvious that they wouldn't allow her to leave the country so what was disappointing about that?
'Maybe I'm not as observant as I thought I was?'
"No...no, they wouldn't." She said and I could hear the dissatisfaction in her tone.
'Seriously, what is with that?'
POV Change
Training went as usual and after the usual the day ended and Shuri went home. Unlike most people in wakanda she used private transportation which the royal family used.
Most Wakandans used public transportation since there was no need for owning your own vehicle when public transportation was fast and efficient enough to get you anywhere.
Shuri finally reached the mansion which could even be called a castle with how large it was.
She was used to it though, it was where shed lived her whole life.
Shuri looked for her brother and found him in the training room as usual. He would have to take on the mantle of the Black panther and king of wakanda soon so he wanted to stay in top shape so as to not lose if challenged.
"At this point I bet you're going to overwork yourself till death." Shuri said with a smirk noticing how he hadn't even noticed that she was there.
T'Challa finally noticed her presence as he stopped hitting the punching. He did the usual wakandan greeting by crossing his arms in an x and smiled.
He walked towards her with a smiled still etched on his face.
" To what pleasure do I owe this visit?" He asked. "You usual go straight to your research even when getting home so it makes me wonder who you mean is overlooking."
"That's different, I was busy with a project with a... friend." She said, she almost winced because of how she struggled to say the word friend and she knew her brother would notice.
"Friend?" He asked his smile seemingly getting bigger. "Well that friend must be pretty special if he made you work that hard."
She igored his smug time and pushed down her blush as she got straight to the point.
"Anyway, I was wondering if you think it would be possible for me to...uhm...go to America for a vacation."
Okay, another 1 down and more to go. You can think of this as a bonus chapter since the rest are going to follow my schedule.
It's obvious that the next few chapters are gonna be about iron man 3, AIM and the extremis virus. I hope I don't mess it up and Its gonna be a short-ish ark.
Oh and if you find any errors please inform me, I'll really appreciate it. I'm only human and mistakes happen, plus my first language isn't really English so im bound to make some gramatic errors here and there.
Plus Fanfic is incredibly annoying. I'm usuing my phone to type and edit these chapters and the app makes it almost inpossible to do so. *Sigh*
Ps: I hope you enjoyed and I decided on a schedule of a chapter every 2 weeks.
If you want chapters early you can find them on my pa troen where I release a chapter every 4 days. So basically you'll get up to 3 chapters advanced but don't worry since in the end ill release all of them here, this is just so that you can support me as an upcoming writer.

Thanks!
Question: Do you think the interactions between characters are smooth? To me they seem a little forced idk the dialogue just isn't flowing the way I want it to.
