"Hey Antonio, Why are you lying on the corner of the street?" questioned Hector who [LOGGED IN] a few minutes.
"Nothing, I was just tired waiting for you. You know, it's been an hour since you Logged out," answered Antonio in a depressed tone.
"I am truly very sorry, I went without telling you anything. This game has a feature that informs the player if there is any problem to the real body." apologized Hector.
"Should I tell him about the [LOG OUT] thing?" thought Antonio.
"What are you thinking, I said I am sorry," asked Hector as he thrust his right arm in Antonio's direction.
"Nay, It's nothing. Let's go" replied Antonio while grabbing the hand and standing up.
Both of them activated their [Assist Skill] called Sprint and ran all the way to the city gate and reached the fields. The fields; A sight to behold. The golden grasses and overgrowth were just perfect. Some green trees and bushes dotted the fields. Both, Antonio and Hector crouched through the grasses while scanning the area carefully.
Suddenly, Both of them saw a pack of wolves rushing towards him. They had fur and were snow-white in color. Without thinking much, Antonio unsheathed his sword from the scabbard and moved back three steps and his sword started to give a faint orange light. One of the Wolves lunged at Antonio and scratched his right forearm but instead of blood the area became bright red and his Hit Points(HP) dropped by 98%.
When the wolf tried to attack once more, Antonio leaped off in the air and landed with a thud sound. The wolf's Hit-Points (HP) dropped to zero and it's the virtual body or the body made up of codes got vanished without leaving a trace that it ever existed. Hector remained frozen after witnessing the scene. He couldn't believe his eyes, In his lifetime of playing MMORPGs, Hector never saw such a clean slay.
Moreover, Antonio, the person who usually relied and preferred on his thinking and mental strength over Physical killed that snow wolf in one clean hit. It looked like, Antonio was one of the beta testers for Eternal Battlegrounds. Hector looked into the eyes of Antonio, The bright aqua-blue eyes had an otherworldly shine inside them.
"Antonio that was fab, I will help ya kill other wolves." complimented Hector.
"Hold your ground, Hector. I can handle the situation. I just leveled up." assured Antonio.
Antonio stood up and connected his left index and middle fingers together, tapped in the air and swiped it down; The initial command for opening the menu. A panel appeared before Antonio. He immediately tapped on [Skills] option and another panel appeared before him. He clicked on [Weapon skills] and opened the [Sword Skill].
"Time to upgrade [Slash] to the next level," whispered Antonio and added the three skill points that were available.
"Now, I have the new sword skill called [Avalanche]. Time to test it," said Antonio in a low tone.
Antonio immediately lunged at another snow wolf which was rushing at him at great speed. He swiftly pulled back his sword and it started giving off a purple light. It was the initial command for activating the new skill, [Avalanche] which is a dash skill. It consists of a single downward vertical slash. It hit directly in the gut of the wolf and killed it immediately and it's virtual body vanished into several small shards.
The Cooldown (CD) time of his first skill <<Slash>> reached zero as Antonio slew a few more wolves by using his sprint skill. After Slaying a total of twenty wolves, he gained 500 experience, 6 wolf teeth, 3 Elixer; Elixer increased the Mana Points, which is consumed by the player after using a weapon skill. Antonio successfully completed his first quest [KILL 12 WOLVES FOUND NEAR THE FIELDS].
All this time, Hector was watching all the action but, as Antonio had already told him not to interfere, he just stood there. He was shocked to see how Antonio killed each and every Snow Wolf from the pack. He hasn't seen this form of Antonio before, the guy who remained silent at the cursing and was used to being bullied by his classmates is now a totally different person in this world. It looked like, the person is not Antonio himself but, someone else.
While Hector was lost in his thoughts, Antonio connected both his index and middle fingers and slid it down, opening the menu. He clicked on [Equipment] tab and equipped the [Darksbane Scimitar] which was dropped by one of the snow wolves. He also equipped the [Leather Armor]. After equipping the new equipment, Antonio opened the [Sword Skills] Tab and unlocked two more Sword skills, [Horizontal Slash] and [Vertical Slash]. He also allocated two of his remaining skill points into two [Assist Skills] called [Enhanced Drop Rate] and [Increased Experience Points].
"Hey Hector, Let's proceed to the Wildwood Forest, I have to complete my another quest. I have done adding the points to my attributes and skills. I also gained two more levels and also unlocked one combo skill." informed Antonio as he closed the interface and started walking toward the route which led to the Wilwood Forest.
"Now, I am confirmed. This isn't Antonio at all. The guy must have [LOGGED OUT] and called out his cousin to play for him. But, If this guy is Antonio, In this World, He is Reborn as a Warrior. Not just a warrior but, A Newborn Warrior." Hector muttered under his breath and ran after Antonio who was heading to the Wildwood Forest.
