——————————————————-

When I opened my eyes i was greeted with my status screen

Seeing it with own eyes I escaped a exhausted sigh from my mouth

“Hmm… I see, at least i have recovered somewhat but sigh… anyways ”

‘It seems that my stats are affected when i’m unhealthy or injured well this not a game anyway so it seems reasonable’

“Well at least i don’t think I have to crawl again”

Looking around myself I found a bag. The brown bag was worn and wrinkled, as if it had been reused many times. It was partially open, revealing its contents: a few pieces of stale, hard bread that looked like they had been left out for too long.

“Well anyway I cannot complain much, as i’m already lucky that i found the basic to meet my ends for a few days or lest i’ll die with empty stomach”

All I had left was a few pieces of hard bread and some bandages

I took out one of the hard bread pieces from his bag. It was so hard that he couldn’t even bite into it. He tried to break it apart with his hands, but it only crumbled into pieces. Grey sighed

Thinking again…

I took a small piece of the hard bread and dipped it into the water.

*PLOP

The bread absorbed the water and became slightly softer. I was able to bite into it, but it was still tough to chew. He soaked another piece, and then another, and kept repeating the process until he had softened all the pieces of bread.

*GULP

With great effort, Imanaged to eat the soaked bread. It didn’t taste good, but it filled his stomach and gave him some much-needed energy.

I took the last bite of the hard bread and washed it down with a sip of water. My stomach felt slightly fuller, but I knew that the meager meal wouldn’t sustain me for long. As I stood up to stretch my legs,

*SCREECH!

a sudden screech echoed through the cave. It was a sound I had never heard before, and it sent shivers down my spine.

Without thinking, I quickly gathered my few belongings and started moving away from the source of the sound. As I walked,

*THUMP *THUMP!

I couldn’t shake the feeling of unease that had settled in the pit of my stomach. The screech had sounded almost inhuman, and I didn’t want to wait around to find out what had made it.

I tried to move as quietly as possible, avoiding any unnecessary noise that might attract unwanted attention. I kept my ears peeled for any more sounds,

but all I could hear was the sound of my own breathing

*INHALE *EXHALE

I took a deep breath and kept moving, putting as much distance between myself and the source of the screech as possible. I didn’t stop until I was well away from that sound, and even then, I kept looking over my shoulder, half expecting to see something following me.

After what seemed like an eternity, I finally reached a small clearing. I paused for a moment to catch my breath and looked around for any signs of danger. The screech had stopped, but the silence was almost more unsettling than the noise.

*HUFF *HUFF

“Well I think I better go now”

*TAK *TAK

From a distance sound of footsteps was heard

‘What? footsteps?’

‘Scan the area around me’

*BEEP!

[SCANNING FOR HOSTILES NEARBY!]

[SCAN COMPLETE!]

[HUMAN BEINGS ARE DETECTED WITHIN 100m]

‘Humans? For real… Are they hostile?’

[DON’T KNOW]

[BUT THEY ARE EQUIPPED WITH WEAPONS SO USER IS CAUTIONED]

‘Yeah right…’

I used <Umbrakinesis> and blended in the darkness and maintained some distance from the incoming. I prepared myself and equipped my sword

As I moved

Taking one step slowly

*TAP *TAP

I slowly hear more some sound of footsteps similar to mine which echoed through the caves

And as I turned around…

*BUMP!

*THUD! *THUD!

As i fell onto the ground

‘Damn! Did I bump into them?’

“Ouch! WHAT THE HELL! Who the F*ck bumped into me? Is it you Marcus?!” a melodious voice exclaimed with frustration

“It’s not me Angela! It might be Steve!” a bulky voice answered

“How about you two don’t question each other and look in front? I think there was someone ahead” Steve answered

“You’re right!” Angela said

<Light> Angela chanted and in an instant the whole dark room was enveloped with shining light

As i stood on the ground and saw them

The bulky guy was an imposing figure, with broad shoulders and bulging biceps that strained against the sleeves of his tight-fitting shirt. He moved with a powerful grace, each step sending ripples through his muscles. His arms were covered in intricate tattoos, each one telling a story of battles fought and won.

His chest was massive, with a V-shaped torso that tapered down to a narrow waist. His legs were thick and powerful, like tree trunks, and his calves bulged with every step. His hair was short and cropped close to his scalp, emphasizing his chiseled jawline and square, rugged features.

Despite his formidable appearance, there was a kindness in his eyes that belied his tough exterior. He had a deep voice that rumbled like thunder.

And there was a glasses kid who looked the very definition of nerd. He was short, skinny, and had rectangle glasses that framed his big, curious eyes. His hair was unkempt, with thick strands falling over his forehead in a messy yet endearing way. He wore a button-up shirt that was a little too big for him, with a pair of high-water pants that showed off his brightly colored socks.

As I turned my attention away from the glasses kid, my eyes fell on a stunning girl with blonde hair and piercing green eyes. Her long hair was tied back, accentuating the sharp angles of her face. She wore a military outfit that hugged her curves in all the right places, and her boots made a satisfying clack against the floor with every step she took.

But what really caught my attention was her voice. It was like honey, smooth and sweet, with a musical quality that made my heart skip a beat. She spoke with confidence and authority, commanding attention without even trying.

As she moved through the room, heads turned to watch her. Her presence was magnetic, drawing people in with a power that was hard to resist. I couldn’t take my eyes off her – she was like a goddess, radiating power and beauty in equal measure.

‘You know what, before I’ll do something stupid i should do this’

<Calm Mind>

In an instant I found myself calm

‘Heh no one seduces this being!’

“Loid?! x3” the blond haired girl named Angela exclaimed together with Marcus and Steve

“I’m glad you’re alive, Loid!” Angela said happily as she approached me and gave me a light hug

‘Damn’ was the only thing I thought

‘It seems she knows me i mean Loid ‘

“I knew my rival well, he can’t go to heaven without me!” Marcus enveloped Angela and me together in his embrace

‘It seems both of them knew me very well’

As I turn myself around for some breath I saw the glasses kid waving at me

“Hi? Mr Kage”

Seeing that I also waved into his direction

‘Hmm? Mr Kage? And the girl called me Loid? Then am I called Loid Kage?’

[STATUS UPDATED!]

[USER’S CURRENT NAME IS ‘LOID KAGE’]

As i thought of this my body suddenly jerked backwards

“Agh!!!!!” I could only think of pain

‘It seems my wounds reopened

[WOUNDS REOPENED!]

[WARNING! EXCESSIVE BLEEDING]

At my sudden action they looked at me worriedly

“L-Loid are you okay?” Angela came to me and supported with her arm not minding any stains of blood on her uniform

“Steve!” Marcus cried

“On it!” Steve said and hurriedly take off his med pack and came to me

“Move!” Steve said and Angela moved away from me

“Let me take a look”

He said so and removed bandages one by one

“Shit x3” All of them sweared looking at my body in horrendous situation

*DRIP *DRIP my blood flows from my body profusely

“Angela! I think we need to do it!” Steve said while looking at my situation where i was bleeding profusely

“Okay!” Angela said so and came right to me

“I’m sorry but it’ll hurt, just bear with it” she took out a pen like thing and put it on my neck, I instantly thought that it was an some kind of syringe

‘It seems i’m gonna sleep again’

“Good night!” she said sweetly and I fall into her arms

*THUD
