Chapter 3: Stupid Mission

Morning came and luckily there were no attacks while I was sleeping
Well it’s not like I will die easily if they attacked me

I pretty much figured things out after what happened yesterday
All the damages that I get goes directly to my HP bar meaning 0 HP is equal to death to sum things up and every encounter that I’ve had I pretty much get no damage from them, to be honest this game is quite easy or am I just too overpowered, Am I like the chosen one to save humanity from this apocalypse?
Nah, not a chance
I’d hate it anyways if that were the case

I stretched out a little and prepared to go outside
I went to the door and opened it really slowly and checked the area if there’re monsters lurking around

Seems like the house is clear 
So I took breakfast because breakfast is important

While eating I opened the Television but unfortunately there was no reception so I used Mark’s laptop Good thing there’s no password
but even the internet is down

I felt really angry and frustrated

“What the f*ck?”
I shouted

I really can’t help it, I might be overreacting but I was really frustrated because Internet doesn’t go away that easily
I mean just yesterday there was internet and now it’s gone suddenly?
I’d be stupid to think that there are just some technical issues and it’ll be back tomorrow
Maybe it has something to do with the signal
I’ve tried everything but still failed
Even my phone is not working, there’s no signal

There’s still electricity but there’s no internet

The thing that I feared most is happening now
There’s no internet, meaning
No games, no anime, no manga, no movies

I hate this apocalypse thing

There’s no more reason for me to live in this planet
I don’t enjoy this killing to survive business; in fact I actually hate it
I’m not some killing maniac who enjoys these kinds of things


I was staring blankly into spaces
It took me some time to recover from the shock of knowing that my only source of happiness might be gone forever

I said to myself
“I need to get the internet back; No, I will get the internet back no matter what”
And somehow I made a life mission to get back the internet

I know that it’s kind of stupid but having this goal in mind will keep me going
Having no goal is like going to war just to die
So thinking about it, it’s a good thing; it’s kinda stupid though


After collecting myself
I started preparing myself to head out
I took all of the things that can be useful and stacked it to my inventory


Using my inventory was amazing
When I pick up objects a window appears in front of me that says whether to use the item, stack it to my inventory or to just drop it
“Use” “Store” “Discard”

I took the goods and stored it
I was not able to use this incredible thing yesterday because I was panicking
Now that I’ve calmed down, I get to use this incredible feature

After stacking all the food and drinks, I took the knives, the crowbar that I found in his room, the hammer, screw driver and the swiss knife because you’ll never know what can be useful in times of need
Oh, I also took some clothes because I still need some change of clothes
So all things being said and done, I robbed my friend; I am now officially a thief

After that I opened the door leading to the hallway slowly
There was a blue wolf lurking in the hallway
It’s not like I’m scared, I mean I killed a lot of them yesterday but still I want to make sure that there is no monster that would be hard to deal with

When I was confident that it’s good to go
I attacked the blue wolf and killed it easily

I didn’t take the elevator because it would be dangerous if a monster attacked me inside it, there’d be no room for me to fight and also there’s a risk of me falling out of the elevator and I don’t want that
So I ran to the stairs and went down
There were no monsters on the stairs and I got to ground floor easily without any trouble although it was quite tiring
So I opened the door a little that was leading towards the lobby area and took a peek

There I saw 2 blue wolves lurking around the area
But these two were different because those wolves had two horns and I read the name of the creature that is on top of its head
“Lvl. 2 Double-horned Blue Wolf
HP: 55/55”

 They almost look the same but they’re stronger than the ones that I’ve faced so far
Thinking about it
Why the lower leveled monsters are on the higher area?
Haaaa, beats me; I should think of my situation now before anything else


I need to separate those two because I still don’t know what they are capable of
So I took the hammer form my inventory and threw the hammer at the metallic seat on the lobby
“Clanggg”

I hit the metallic seat but I failed to separate them
Both of them were looking around the metallic seat checking what caused the sound

This is an opportunity
They’ve shown their blind spot to me so I took the initiative and went behind them sneakily
They didn’t notice me so I started my attack

I used Stab

“Stab!”
And Oh “Stab” doesn’t have that much cooldown so I pretty much use it to spam
I killed the first wolf thanks to that but the second wolf was able to react and then he howled

It was a long howl but since attacking is not that hard to do
I attacked the wolf while he was howling and killed him

But suddenly three wolves arrived at my left side
They were reinforcements


I panicked
So I ran to the door leading to the stairs
I closed the door and locked it
The wolves were banging the door but they weren’t able to break it

“Phew! That was close”

So the Howl earlier was for calling reinforcements, seems like you’re one scared dog
The single-horned ones were much braver

So I went to the 2nd floor to look for another way to escape
I saw the Fire Exit

As I was heading towards the fire exit I noticed something
“Oh, I leveled up”

That was a surprise I didn’t noticed that I leveled up, come to think of it the notification when I first leveled up was quite hard to notice
It was located to the upper right side of my vision
So It’s hard to notice when you’re panicking

I checked my status



“Name: Clive       Level: 3
 HP:250/250
Exp %: 15/100
Str: 27                   Dmg: 27 (+ 2)      Class: Novice     Pet: None
Agi: 27                  Def: 25 (+1)
Int: 25                   Luck: 10
Vit: 25”

 After checking the status I checked the notification window if there are any other power ups happened and it seems like there has been some unlocks on my skills
“Slice: +20 damage upon casting (area) -               CD: 30 secs”

Wow what a useful skill
I can now do area damage that is a big upgrade considering that I can only fight one at a time
Cooldown takes time though


While rejoicing because of the skill that I’ve obtained, something passed by the window on the second floor
So I slowly walked towards the window  in an almost crouching position and took a little peek through the window
 And there I saw a wolf like creature but it was totally in a different league than the ones that I’ve seen so far
The fur was color black, it has two heads and it was so big that the head reaches the 2nd floor of the building


“Lvl. 7 Double-headed Black Wolf(Boss)
HP:  700/700”

It was enormous; it was something that I could not fight alone
I did not saw it before because I was in a really high place and I didn’t check the windows that much

After that I headed towards the fire exit and arrived at the back alley of the building
There were few monsters but they were nothing that I couldn’t handle, unlike the boss wolf that I saw earlier that seems impossible to beat right now


So I moved through the alley trying to evade an encounter to that boss wolf and maybe find some other survivors

  2. Long CD for lvl 3 skill D: but just my opinion. story wise still going in a good direction. "I did not saw it before" should be "I did not see it before" few other little things here and there but otherwise good for English not being your native language. Drop wise. Not sure what kind of armour you plan to impliment later on but surprised no bones or fur/pelts yet. Good work so far. Keep it up!

    1. I was thinkng that CDs should be longer because it's like a real game.. I also considered the fact that they can dodge, parry, block and do normal attacks.. but the CDs should be a little shorter with simple attack skills.

    2. True. I forgot about dodge parry block haha.

  3. Forthe future you need to think where you want to go with the story. Equipment wise. Will we see swords. Daggers etc (basic weapons? As well as possible modern weapons? Guns grenades etc. Same for armour

  4. Am I reading the same story from chapter 2? or are you remaking the story? If you are remaking it, you might like to place some notes or separate it. Basing from what I read in the comments, this is the world where Mark died instead of his Mom and he didn't wake up in a game world. Evidenced by Mark's laptop and the lack of motivation (get back the internet instead of revival magic or investigation on where the blue light goes)
