I follow them and leave this room. I tell my sister that I will come back for a moment.
"Where?" Said her with a sad voice. Her hands are trembling. I think she is afraid I left her alone.
She grasped her hands and said, "Don't be hard on yourself, okay?"
She still worried about me. Afraid of losing me... It's the same as me. I am worried too leaving you here alone. I felt hesitant a bit but, she smiled at me and said, "It's okay.". Thanks for understanding my decision.
Before leaving this building, I wave at her.
They are waiting for me outside. After I came outside the building, they started to run.
I start to run too.
Knowing that I couldn't match their speed I shouted at them. "Wait!!"
They slow down their speed a bit to match mine. We are running to Emily's high school as we decided in our last discussion. I check my system to the Friend tab. Their STR points are higher than mine except for Rena. Huh? So why she is faster than me?
I ran near Rena.
"Umm... How is your speed faster than mine?" Asked me with a curious feeling.
"There is a passive skill called Run. Don't you have it?" Asked her back to me. Her face indicated that she didn't quite like to talk about herself to strangers.
"You will get it after walking about ten kilometers." Said Eka from my right side.
I see, so that's how you get it but...
"I didn't hear that skill can be obtained unless by scroll!" Said me a bit louder.
"Run is a universal skill. That means you already have that skill when you are still a kid." Said Renald a bit louder.
"We can hear you so keep quiet a bit." Said Putri in front of us seems annoyed.
I get it. So, Run skill is not obtainable but it's already there after we are born. It same as Mimicry from Chamelion I think.
After running for a moment, we arrived at my sister's high school. This place is full of monsters same as the one who tried to attack me back then.
Without any discussion, they start to hunt.
Huh? There is no discussion? What am I supposed to do?
Knowing that I was just doing nothing after that, Rena said to me. "Just look at it first."
Rena starts to create some kind of magic structure in the air.
With two magic structures appeared in front of her, she said. "With your power that can sweep all hell to heaven!! I choose you Ifrit!! And burn all of them!! Fireball!!."
The Fireball flies in the monster's direction.
Boom!!*
If she still needs enchant time then she didn't have 200 INT points. She starts to do it again. Suddenly, some arrows shot from the sky. So that's Eka's skill huh? I am Archer. That's a passive skill from an Archery job. Job... Oh that I mention it, there is no Job in the system. Is it that how... No, I think that was his Universal skill. He is the Giver after all. They are amazing but, not as for Putri and Renald.
Look at that movement... She is so agile! Those monsters can't attack her because of her agility! But, look at Renald, slaying Catfish with his sword in one swoop. Why is he didn't use his attack skill?
Suddenly, some system windows appear in front of me. It forced me to choose one of these five weapons. There are Staff, Dagger, Sword, Shield, and Spear. 4SD1 huh? It's the basic weapon in WEO in the early arc. There will be ten basic weapons until the update before the last update. It's Claws, Mace, Book, Orb, and Fan.
For me, the best weapon should be the daggers. It has a double attack but has the closest range and separable content in exchange. I mean separable is that the daggers not dropped one pair but just one dagger. The player who plays this build should pay extra for their grinding. But, Assassin Goner was the best player assassin back then and counted as The Most Grinded Player. It's not an honorable title but a joke title. It's mean that I am just a nerd without touching grass even just once.
I choose daggers. Just the same as the game, the assassin player will start as double daggers and it will be the easiest way to farm your level in early. Two Daggers huh? I remember that I had a guild back then. What's happened with those members... I wonder if they survive or not.
These daggers feel real. I don't know how to feel it. It's fun? Not... It's awesome? Yeah, but not exactly right that.
I walk away from Rena and Eka and start hunting by myself. It's not like a game with a mouse and keyboard. At this time, my body is my control. If it is broken then the game is over.
One of them approached me. You are the same kind who wanted to kill me back then. I am a bit excited now. This world turned out to be a game. As a gamer, this is a new challenge for me!!
I jump at that monster but...
The reality is more heartless than I think. I get hit by its claws and fall to the ground.
M-my body... It feels hurt... Huh? Where is my dagger? I look around and there is it! It is far away from me. Now what?
Step* step*
Looking behind, that monster ran at me with its maximum speed. There is still one in my right hand. How should I do it?
My hand is trembling. The moment feels slower than normal. As soon as my death is right in front of my eyes. Panicked, fear, I can't even move my body. What should I do? What should I do?!?
"Don't push yourself, okay?"
I grabbed my dagger strongly and said it along I swung my right hand while holding my dagger to that monster.
Horizontal Slash!!!
I kill it... I kill it!!! Y-YEAH!!!!
It feels so good... It really feels so good. I stand up, walk to my other dagger, and take grab it back.
Excitement... That's what I feel right now. This is what I call an adrenaline rush. This is my time to show my skills!! My heart is burning, burning with my spirit.
Grawwwr-!!!
Reflex, we are looking at the monster who screaming. "Ck! Horde is coming!!!"
After Renald shouted like that, we gathered in the cycle area to protect our ranger.
Renald grabbed his sword, thrust it on the ground, and said. "For Glory!"
The area filled with a shiny yellow color at that second. This is a Rare skill. The Rare skill which often used by Paladin job!! For him to have this skill. What has been he through? If the theory is that the Giver's first skill is a Universal skill then... it should not be that different from the skill description. Like the "I am Archer" skill, It needed basic Archery skills to do it. It means that Eka had already learned basic Archery even before this Ragnarok happened.
The monsters came one by one attacking us. We cycle Eka and Rena with a triangle shape. I and Rena are still okay but not for Renald. That weapon is suitable for long-term battle but because I think he didn't have one attack skill, it's the worst item he picked up.
But, I don't want to stand here forever, I still have enough stamina... Nope, it just needed that one monster to take out my stamina 1/3. Now, with the For Glory! skill, I can do it.
I dash at the most many monsters.
"Wait, Rega!!!"
Renald shouted at me but, I ignored it. This is my chance to get level up!!
Horizontal Slash!
Two down. One of them tries to attack me, but I avoid it by jumping back with my left leg and continuing to jump at it with my right leg. Three down. Five monsters come at me at once, Easy!
I concentrate a bit and Horizontal Slash!
A shockwave appears after I swing my dagger along say Horizontal Slash. Ha..ha.. Hahaha!! I know I am right. It is the same... It's really SAME!!!
Seven down. This is really the same as my beloved game World End Online!! This is the most fun game I ever tried in my life!!
"It seems I didn't get my chance to show up." Said Renald after knowing that I didn't need any help.
"He is crazy." Said Rena scared and confused while enchanting Fireball.
"That's what I call Pro player!" Said Eka getting more excited.
"Just remember it you moron, this is not a game!" Said Putri worried about her childhood friend.
And me, Still killing them with my daggers. One by one it down. But, my stamina ran out quickly.
The horde keeps coming.
"I think I am wrong, he needs our help after all." Said her with a smile.
He looked at Putri and nodded with each other. After that, they run at me.
My stamina has almost gone out. Pant* pant* pant* Oh now, the horde, it's more than before. I barely kill thirty and that's not much.
Suddenly, I feel two hands touching my shoulder from behind.
"Player change!!"
While looking at them. Renald smiled, I think he was in spirit to kill these monsters but not for Putri, with her serious face, she followed Renald way. Should I take a rest for a moment? I walk to where Rena stands enchanting those Fireballs and sit near her.
"You are crazy." Said her with a low voice after I sat down.
"This world is even crazier than you think you know?" Said me trying to make it a joke.
"Yeah, yeah... You need to be crazier than this to say it crazy!" Said Eka responding to my joke with a small laugh.
Still, their speed, how they kill and choose their target... They are better than me. Adrenaline rush is not counted as fighting properly. It means that you are lost to your emotions and internal instinct to survive. Believe it or not, that's the worst way to fight. The opponent just needs to inflict your anger and it will done in a second. That's why fighting in Adrenaline Rush is not as powerful as what happened.
