Chapter 4: Chapter 4 - Game to Live

Kyle was extremely undecided about what to do. It was a certain happy life and a sweet release of death in 100 years back on Earth. Or it could be an exciting and potentially dangerous life in this new world. Both of these choices were tempting to choose.

"I have just received a message from one of the higher-ranking agents," Catter seemed to be in a very bad mood because of something, "I told you the biggest secret no-one knows about in any of the worlds below the 4th level, and you just didn't believe me." Catter didn't look straight at Kyle.

"You will be given the ultimate gift, a special thing that usually is never given out. You will be given the ultimate trait that everyone would wish for and would pray to get. It is the ultimate thing that will save your life as well as let you achieve unimaginable heights since the second you arrive in the world." Catter spoke like he was describing a fairy tale.

"So what is your decision? Will you stay in the "Game" of the God "To Live" or will you go back to your boring earth world?" Catter now wanted more than ever that he chooses to stay here. She probably thought that she could get something if he stayed.

Kely was going to decline at first, but the idea of being inside of the world such as that was the ultimate dream. He always played games hoping for this to happen one day. This was a real deal. He would probably regret it for the rest of his life if he declined here.

What excited Kyle even more, that all of this seemed just like the games that he has been playing and the novels that he always read. He was now shaking. He was ecstatic.

"Okay, I will stay here," Kyle said with joy in his eyes.

"Brilliant!" The Catter flew up and did 2 or 3 circles before addressing back Kyle, "Now I will be transferring you to the part of the world where humans are. You will start there. Your gifts will be with you once you arrive there, please don't bable about what has happened here. You, as you know, are chosen. Don't throw away your life too easily."

As that was said, the world changed, and a huge black door with black chains from some metal appeared out of nowhere.

[ You are about to be transferred from Earth world to the world Game of God to Live, do you accept? ]

[ Yes / No ]

'Yes.' Kyle pressed with no hesitation, and the door started to open. There was nothing outside of it, just an abyss of nothingness. After looking back to the clouds, Kyle stepped inside.

Kyle was expecting to start dropping to his death after he stepped through, but instead, he magically appeared in some random forest. Different smells attacked his scent, and the freshest of airs caught him off guard. His head started spinning, and he nearly blanked out from all of the oxygen.

'Damn, I just arrived and nearly got killed by fresh air. What type of joke would that be.' Kyle laughed to himself, 'They kept on telling me that I am the scouted one, but I have no idea what it entails or what it means.'

Before Kyle had any time to think to himself, a sudden cracking noise could be heard, and a small bunny hoped on to the patch of grass that was around 10 metres away from Kyle.

The bunny saw Kyle and didn't escape like he anticipated that it would. Instead, it seemed very happy and started hopping towards Kyle.

This turn of the event completely caught Kyle off guard. He didn't know what bunny wanted with him. It didn't know what humans were and wanted to check? Did it get interested in some of the plants next to Kyle? Or was it coming to eat him? Doesn't matter how weird it sounded, but knowing Kyle's luck, it was the latter.

The bunny started hoping faster and faster with a stronger force and was about to pounce at Kyle. Kyle got ready to take this beast on. He already knew that this world was very similar in description to one of those MMORPGs he played, and low-level areas always contained ridiculously cute monsters that could even kill him.

The bunny was much faster than Kyle anticipated, and it flew straight for his leg, ripping the jeans that he had on and scratching it. This was extremely painful, which made Kyle aware more than ever that he had to take this seriously.

The scratch was bleeding, which made the rabbit even happier. Kyle went into the position he saw in the movies when karate and other martial artists fought, waiting for another pounce from the bunny. He didn't want to hurt or kill it, but he had no choice now that it attacked him. Also, he knew that there gotta be some experience type thing to increase levels. The only choice was to hunt to level up.

The rabbit pounced once again, now further up, at his stomach. This allowed for a more comfortable position, and Kyle punched the rabbit straight at its face.

The feeling when the fist collided with the animal, was something very hard to describe. It was as if his hand was brushing through iron. It was so painful that Kyle screamed. The rabbit also flew back after the punch, but the bloodied fist of Kyle enticed it too much to stop.

Kyle looked around for something that would let him to battle with this savage creature of hell without hurting himself anymore. He couldn't find anything except a big and thick branch just lying nearby. Just before bunny started attacking, he slid to grab it, not to lose sight of the enemy.

When he was about to grab the branch, it started moving. 'You gotta be f$%#&^# joking me!" This thing that he considered a branch becomes a snake. 'For the god sake, I am going to die!'

'Let's run. I can't do anything here!' He dodged both the bunny and the snake pounces and ran straight to the open area he saw through the trees. The terrain was hard for him but very easy for the bunny, and he understood that open terrain doesn't benefit him either. 'I am not as pathetic as that. I have to use my superior brain against this idiotic bunny to win here.' He saw that there was another brunch that was all crocked and was not that thick. 'This can't be another snake, no way.'

Kyle grabbed the branch, and as soon as he picked it up and turned, bunny already leapt at him. His only option was to retaliate back. He lifted the branch and slashed down as hard as he could in the direction of his enemy, he was sure that the branch would break after such impact, but it was his only option. 'My superior brain only thought of this. Eh.'

The impact was fierce, and as he predicted, the branch cracked and broke, but what he didn't expect is got the bunny to stop mid-leap and drop to the ground.

Kyle, exhausted from everything that happened after he opened that box, dropped to the ground panting.

'What have I done? Was it the right choice? Bunny nearly killed me. That would have never happened on earth. ' Kyle didn't know what to do. Everything wanted to kill him, and it seemed that he was the weakest thing in this forest.

Suddenly at the spot where the bunny's body was lying, an interface with a huge red exclamation sign appeared.

[Do you want to absorb?]

He had no idea what it meant, but he was guessing that it was exactly what he was going for.

'Yes! Absorb!'

Chapter 5: Chapter 5 - Surviving

As soon as he pressed the Yes button, he saw the rabbit evaporating, and a small dust grey circle started levitating towards his stomach.

'I am not sure what this absorb is, but I can not keep on staying this week, maybe it will give me experience this way.'

What happened next, both confused and excited Kyle. The grey energy started accumulating inside of him, creating something tiny inside of him. He tried closing his eyes to fully feel what it is, but he wasn't used enough to this new world and the way his body was here to understand the inner workings.

'So I can grow, I can feel that grey energy interacting with my blood and with my spine. I can do this." Kyle clenched his hands.

Also, in place of the bunny, there was a small purple crystal, the size of the rice grain. Kyle would have missed it for sure if not for the reddish-blue glow it was emitting. This crystal was for sure, a monster drop, and he couldn't just leave something that could be rare on the ground. Kyle put that crystal into his jeans pocket. 'I know that there is some type of interface here, I already used it when answering yes and no questions. I need to figure out how to use it later. '

His clothes were already dirty, and jeans were ripped with bloodstains.

'This can attract predators. I can feel that my blood is editing some type of energy into the air' he ripped the jeans unto his ankle and threw them deep on to the tree.

After this dear situation with the rabbit was over, he found himself on the open patch of land which had the forest where he came from on one side and unbelievable grassland on the other.

Grassland seemed less dangerous, but there were no trees or anything, which meant that Kyle would be out in the open, not very smart thing to do if you are looking to survive. Kyle carefully headed back into the forest and decided to stay on this outer perimeter so that he can always recreate into the grassland.

Kyle was also very hungry. He was searching for any food that he could find, as bunny evaporated into the air, leaving Kyle with energy but no meat. He suddenly stepped on a branch which he broke and instead of just walking further, his leg went through the ground and dragged the whole body with it.

Not sure what happened, Kyle found himself in the underground cave, it was very dark with only light from the hole Kyle dropped from coming through. The worst part is that he was lying next to the large pile of bones neatly stacked into the pile. This was horrifying, and Kyle stopped breathing to see if he was alone.

'I can hear something breathing, but it seems that thing hasn't realised that I am here.' Kyle stayed still, trying to figure out where the breathing sound was coming from. Kyle wanted to shift away from the light, but any more noise might alert that creature.

Finally, Kyle had a guess where the creature was. He wanted to attack, but that encounter with the bunny really taught him that using his bare hand was a bad idea, he started looking around for anything weapon-like. He saw that one of the bones that were lying next to the light and the pile of bones had a metallic lustre. It also had one side broken, making it look like a dagger. Without thinking any further he had to take this chance, 'I better strike first than to get killed later.'

Kyle grabbed the bone, and with all of his might that he could master struck right at where the sound was coming from. All that he heard was a clanging noise. The same noise you would hear if you smashed a sledgehammer into the steel slab. Kyle didn't understand what happened, his bone dagger broke, and he had only the topmost part still in his hand. His blood was pumping, and he had the pulsating noises of blood flowing in his ears.

'What has happened? I struck right at it with everything I had, why have my dagger not went through?!' Kyle started panicking.

He stayed there not moving as he had no idea what is going to happen. Kyle stayed like that for the good 20 seconds.

Nothing happened.

'Did I kill it? No, I can still hear breathing. Did I NOT WAKE IT UP?!' Kyle started panicking even more. His full out strike didn't wake up this beast he couldn't see. He was worse than a mosquito.

'I have to get out while I can.' Kyle decided that it was his only option, get ours as fast as he could.

He saw that from the ceiling, there was a liana hanging down that could help him escape. Without any hesitation, he ran to it and started climbing as fast as he could.

'I have always failed my PE classes, $%#^ I have to get to the top.' Usually, he was able to do 1 pushup only. Now he had to climb good 10 metres on the roap. Kyle's hands went above, and beyond his normal ability, his whole face was red, and he pushed and pushed through.

Once he finally was out of the hole, he breathed out.

'Out all of the places, I had to drop to some powerful beast to the liar. That could have only happened to me…' Kyle thought 'I hate my luck, I just wish that my luck was better in this world…'

[You have discovered your scouted benefit Number 3]

[Trait:]

[Improved Luck: lvl 1]

'Wow,' the interface that appeared in front of Kyle really caught him off guard, 'finally I have some advantage. I get it. I have to discover things in order for the system to start working properly. Okay, that just makes things more interesting.'

'I also hope that this luck trait doesn't suck like in all other games I played, and there are no bugs that actually lower my luck instead of improving it' Kyle prayed.

'Time to find someplace that I can call a base in this forsaken forest, I have to improve my strength before I can travel further' Kyle started searching for some type of uninhabited cave.

At the same time, in the forests all around the Gameworld, many human figures started dropping, some of them wore clothes, others were butt naked. The main difference from Kyle was, they were ready and trained to survive in this world.

Catter all this time was clicking her tongue and looking at the screen in front of her. It was a recording of Kyle striking down with the bone knife in the underground cave. The light was increased, and if Kyle saw this video, he would drop dead from fear. What he was striking was a leg of a 50 metre green Dragon wyvern, sleeping.
