Hello Everyone, just thought I should give some quick information before you all start reading.
Kuromi is a slight introvert, not talking to many of her classmates ans while she is a Sasuke Fangirl, she does not fawn over Sasuke, basically just a normal fan of someone you like.
On to the important part, the Question System, more will be explained later on, but basics are:
Kuromi will get three Quest Creation Points a day, she can stockpile up to 30 Unused Quest Creation Points.
Kuromi can have a maximum of seven quests active at once.
She can assign herself a basic quest like "Run five Kilometres without stopping", and the system will inform her of the reward before she starts the quest(reward might be methods to save energy while moving around and slight boost to endurance).
More difficult quests give better rewards.
Doing quests will also give credits, which can be used in the system index to unlock pages of information, such as pages un the Index for basic blacksmithing for 100 Credits, or what can I do to lower the chances that Danzo will go after her for 700 points.
I'm hoping to keep this System more basic than my last one, no numbers or else my brain will get a few errors.
Usual Warnings of possible blood, gore, more mature themes, so if you don't want to see that then this might not be for you… If you do want to see that, then it might not appear for a while.
System: Quest Complete!
Normal Speaking: "Hello"
Powerful Entity Speaking: "Tailed Beast Bomb!"
Thoughts: 'Why did I ever agree to this...'
Chapter Start
Kuromi Kuroshi was just a normal teenage girl… well, as normal as an Orphan from the Nine Tails Attack 14 years ago could be.
Sadly, Kuromi has always felt disconnected from her peers, most seemed arrogant or exuberant, too annoying for her.
In that aspect, she grew to admire the last Uchiha, having seen him throughout all their years in the academy, calm and collected and pushing through the tragedy of his clan's destruction… and dealing with those over enthusiastic fan girls.
Sadly, Kuromi never managed to build up the courage to have a proper conversation with many people, let alone the young Uchiha.
Her grades weren't bad, in fact he was a contender for top Kunoichi of her year, but Kuromi knew that with no clan background, she would not make it too far.
During the last Summer Break before her Final Year at The Academy, Kuromi began having dreams of another life, which continued for two weeks, until…
Player Has Awakened Quest System, Welcome To Your Path To Greatness!
"I think things are going to get a bit crazy..." Kuromi said, both resignation and denial in her voice.
Kuromi was starting to get worried, she had already thought those weird dreams were fake, and she tried to dispel this genjutsu… but it wouldn't dispel.
Player, this is no illusion, given the memories that have returned, I'm sure you know what is going on.
"Fine, I'm assuming the reason I'm not totally freaking out is because of Gamer's Mind?" Kuromi said, having calmed down.
Indeed, but Gamer's Mind will only last 24 hours, this is no ordinary system, would you like a tutorial?
"... I would be worried, and I still am, but I suppose doing dungeons or randomly healing and getting stronger would get the Anbu and other Ninja suspicious of me, continue on System, or do you have a name?" Kuromi said after a few moments of silence, if it weren't for Gamer's Mind she'd be freaking out.
I see you're one of the nicer Players, I do not have a name, but you may call me Dex for now.
The Quest System will give you three Quest Creation Points everyday.
Quest Creation Points can be stockpiled up to a maximum of 30 QCP(Short for Quest Creation Points).
You may have a maximum of 10 Quests active at the same time.
You may use QCP to create quests for yourself, in which I will create a reasonable reward.
An example would be:
Meditate Without Losing Focus For One Hour.
Reward: Slightly increased chakra control and mental fortitude, improved calm in most situation, 150 Credits.
There are no stats or levels, but there are skills able to be obtained through The Index.
The Index allows you to spend Credits to unlock pages of information, be it the Turtle School Martial Arts from Dragon Ball for 1000 Credits, the Great Fireball Jutsu for 120 points, or even a plan to prevent yourself from being inducted in to Root by Danzo.
You may unlock better Quest options and increase both QCP Per Day, the Stockpile of QCP and Active Quests with System Ascensions.
Your System Ascension Requirements are currently reaching Chunin Tier overall with Jounin Tier skills in one or more fields(Medical Arts, Kenjutsu, Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu) and paying 1500 Credits to The System.
Due to being a Beta Tester, you will start with Seven QCP and 500 Credits.
There are some minor differences between this timeline and the Original Naruto Timeline.
"Hmmm, alright, I suppose I should spend the remaining month and two weeks preparing. Thanks for the Info Dex, first I'll check possible rewards for different quests before I decide on a game plan, Gotta make good use of Gamer's mind, time to browse the quests, alright Dex?" Kuromi said, taking advantage of Gamer's Mind to create a strategy.
Just because, I want to delay browsing given how boring tht might be, would you like to first check what strategies are available to be found in the Index to avoid suspicion from the village higher ups?
"Oh hey, that's a great idea Dex! I suppose full on strategies would be too expensive for me to get right now… Alright! How much Credits for tips on how to protect myself from threats within the village? Just tips" Kuromi asked and clarified, wanting to save some Credits.
Calculating… 250 Credits and I have selected the most important things I could for that price, Would you like to purchase?
Y/N
"Thanks Dex, yes, let's form a game plan." Kuromi accepted, proceeding to buy the page and reading.

"Huh, this'll help a lot, thanks Dex, Now, let's start browsing.
-Two Hours of Browsing Through Quests Later-
"Alright Dex! I'd say we have some great options! Open up the saved Quest Options." Kuromi said, excited to see the progress they made in the search.

"Yeah, this should be good for now, by the way, given how I call you Dex, you can just call me Kuromi, no need for Player this and Player that." Kuromi said, clearly excited.
Alright Kuromi, its great having someone nice be the host of the system, most just want to kill things and get a harem. Either way, what Quests would you like to Create?
"Huh, I guess that's something I should keep in my memory for the future. Anyways, activate the Cooking Quest, Waking Up At 4AM Quest and the Five Differences Quests, that should be good for now. I need to balance being Careful with how I spend my QCP, with whatever changes occurred and Sakura not being around, I'll have to do my best to ensure nothing too bad happens." Kuromi said, heading to the Kitchen.
Alright Kuromi, the Quests are active, currently you're down to 250 Credits and 4 QCP. Sadly I can't chat too much for a bit, I gotta monitor this universe and nearby universes to ensure no universe hoppers come and attack.
"Makes sense, welp, I guess these will have to do for the three meals." Kuromi said, taking out some rice and preparing it for the rice cooker, slicing up some potatoes to boil and starting to cook some fish with basic seasoning.
-90 Minutes Later-
Here Kuromi stood, her silver hair glistening with sweat and amethyst coloured eyes gazing at what was in front of her.
A Glorious Spread was laid out on the Table, split in to three sections.
The First contained pieces of grilled fish, a bowl of rice, a few chunks of Potato and Miso Soup.
The Second Contained a larger plate of rice, with some scrambled eggs and pieces of grilled fish on top, another grilled fish to the side with a bowl of mashed potatoes beside it, miso soup and an apple.
The Third Contained a bowl of rice, some cold tofu with soy sauce, a small slice of boar meat, mashed potatoes and some green beans.
"Welp, time to wrap up the other two, and now it's time to eat!" Kuromi said, excited as she knew she'd outdone herself.
Ding!
Calculating Quest Completion rewards… 27 Eggs, 10 Pound Bag of Rice, Two Whole Chickens(Pre-Skinned), One Gallon of Milk- All contained in Food Preservation Storage Bracelet, Minor Increase Towards Cooking Skills and 100 Credits Given.
"Huh, 27/30 eggs, not bad, only problem will be getting more Vegetables later on, but this should be good… Let's do this, I'll move forward and see just how far I can make it, after all, the multiverse is the limit!" Kuromi said, excitement and resolve in her voice, prepared to go push her limits to make sure she can enjoy this life.
Author's Note: Hope you all enjoyed the first chapter, this one was mainly to get a basis set up for Kuromi and the Quest System. Minor Timeskip next chapter for like two or three days. Take care and bye for now readers!
