Chapter 2: 2 The Encounter
It's already been a couple of hours since Christian found the Baseball bat in Jake's room, he already has checked three rooms and was able to get five cans of tuna, and one cereal. Because the power line was destroyed by the earthquake, he also brought a couple of candles since electrical appliances no longer work. This means he can only scavenge in the daytime.
Returning to his room, Christian is arranging his supplies and is thinking about what would happen to him and what will happen next.
So far he still did not see any people who are living in this apartment. Christian wonders if the army or the police has already rescued everyone else, and he was the only one left because he lost consciousness for three days stuck in his room.
Deciding to not mind these things, Christian inspect the system to see and analyze the attributes the system shown.
[ Name: Christian Navaja
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Level: 1 0/50
Class: None
Title: None
Strength: 8
Dexterity: 7
Constitution: 8
Intelligence: 9
Wisdom: 8
Skills: None ]
Seeing the characteristics of the system, Christian clicks the [Human] from the [Race] section and see what kind of traits his race had.
[ Human: The physique of humans is more muscular and sturdy than of elves, but much more slender than that of dwarves. The color and hue of human skin are varied, ranging from a fair pink, to tanned, to a very dark brown. Hair also becomes gray or white with sickness or age. ]
Christian seeing the traits of the [Human] was shocked to learn that there are Dwarves and Elves in the system notice.
"So not only the world became a game, but it also became a fantasy world with Dwarves, Elves and Dragons!?"
Knowing that the world would become a dangerous place, Christian decides to carefully plan his future by assigning the correct attribute points to his attributes to have a better chance of surviving this dangerous world.
Clicking the [Strength] attribute, he wonders what can it do if he decided to put his attributes here.
[ Strength: It is the measurement of the physical power and carrying capacity the person possesses. The more points the person assigns the more strength the person can wield and the more weight he could also hold, causing them to be more powerful than any individual. ]
"So that's what [Strength] can do. Just like in video games"
Christian also checks the rest of the attributes, to see what also can it perform for a better chance of survival in this game-like world.
[ Dexterity: It is the measurement of the agility, balance, coordination and reflexes the person possesses. The more points the person assigns the more agile and coordinated the person becomes, causing them to be able to move and respond faster than any individual. ]
[ Constitution: It is the measurement of the endurance, stamina and good health the person possesses. The more points the person assigns the more healthy and hard the body becomes, causing the person to endure and last more hits than any individual. ]
[ Intelligence: It is the measurement of the deductive reasoning, knowledge, memory, logic, and rationality the user possesses. The more points the user assigns the more he would be able to memorize various knowledge, causing the user to be able to acquire more knowledge than any individual. ]
[ Wisdom: It is the measurement of the self-awareness, common sense, restraint, perception and insight the user possesses. The more points the user assigns the more he would be able to understand things superficial or supernatural, causing the user to be able to understand these things more than any individual. ]
After reading these attributes, Christian is assessing how to place his attribute points once he levels up.
"[Strenght] is power, [Dexterity] is on agility and reflexes, [Constitution] is about endurance and stamina, [Intelligence] is on physical and psychological knowledge, while [Wisdom] is more on spiritual knowledge."
"[Intelligence] and [Wisdom] is more on the mind possibly for the Mage class. While the other three [Strength], [Dexterity], and [Constitution] is more on the body the physical strength and endurance, the Warrior class!"
"To survive this world, I need to be able to fight and the Mind stats could not possibly help me fight right now. Which means the Physical stats are what I need!"
"The problem is which attribute points on the warrior class will I focus on. The [Strenght] stat or the [Dexterity] stat? [Constitution] stat is out of the question since it's important to have a sturdy body that can last more hits and increase my chances of survival."
Christian could not decide what type would he be, distressed Christian messes his hair and decided to choose once he levels up.
He decided to sleep since it's already dark outside. Blowing the candles, Christian was lying on the bed when he heard a weird noise. The noise is faint and sounds like a rat trapped in a mousetrap, survived and is constantly wailing trying to escape.
Deciding to see what's happening, Christian stands up and prepares himself to see what it is. Grabbing the Baseball bat, placing the knife on his waist, and clothing himself with thick clothes he sets out.
Christian gently open the door and see if there's anyone outside. Seeing no one he sets out, he pays attention to the noise, on which direction does it comes from.
The noise comes from the room right in the hallway, the name of the room is unclear because of the dark, but with the faint light of the moon it looks like the janitor's room. Christian moves closer and closer to the sound, holding the Baseball bat with his two hands. Sweat on his hands, he is feeling nervous about what is causing the sounds.
As he arrived outside the door, he can hear chewing sounds, this creature is eating something. He sees the door and decided to open it slowly and see what kind of creature is inside the room.
As he opens the door slowly he sees the faint outline of a child, but this child seems to be weird, it has a pointy ear and a bald head, as he looks more closely he can see the child is consuming what it seems to be a rat.
"What the hell?"
The child hearing the voice slowly turns itself, and see what kind of idiot disturbed him from eating.
"A goblin?!"
Christian unconsciously says. The goblin seeing the human immediately shrieked and sprint to the human who disturbed its mealtime.
Christian startled, takes a half step back, but composes himself, he has to kill this creature so that he would be able to survive this ordeal.
Raising the baseball bat with his two hands, he hit the head of the goblin with all his strength.
*Crack*
Immediately a cracking noise was heard as the baseball bat hit the head of the goblin. The goblin being hit, falls down shrieking even more.
Christian seeing the goblin is still alive, raise the baseball bat again and hit the already injured head of the goblin.
*Crack*
As the baseball bat hit the goblin's head again, another cracking sound was heard. The skull of the goblin being hit immediately pop like a watermelon.
Christian shock from what he saw, fall down with perspiration falling on his face, feeling his weak legs, he just sat there too shocked from what he did.
Registering what happen, Christian immediately pukes. Disgusted by the gore he witness.
As the final life force leaves the goblin, a system notice shortly appears in front of Christian.
[ Congratulations on killing a Goblin, 50 experience points acquired ]
Christian receiving the experience points another system notice appears in front of him.
[ Congratulations, you Level up, you received three attribute points ]
After a couple of minutes, strength came back to Christian's body. Standing up, he gets the baseball bat that is stuck on the head of the goblin.
Disgusting sounds were heard, as Christian pulls the baseball bat out of the head of the corpse.
While feeling disgust pulling the baseball bat, Christian notices that they are shiny coins on top of the goblin's body.
Curious about what it is, he goes closer and picked it up.
[ Copper coins: The lowest currency of the Battle system's currency. Can be used to purchase materials or weapons from the Traveling Merchants ]
They were three of these coins on the goblin's body. Picking the rest of the coins, Christian put them in his pocket.
Discovering that there's no more any loot from the body and disgusted from the gore he makes, Christian goes back to his apartment room.
Christian after arriving in his room, immediately goes to sleep not bothering changing, tired of what he has experienced today.
