I had been walking for what felt like hours now. Luckily there was a fair bit of cloud cover today. The zombie continued to walk along with me, I had hoped from a distance people would mistake it for a living person... who was missing an arm.
I had wanted to tell it to give me a piggyback ride, but after looking at its blood soaked clothes I decided against it. Showing up smeared with blood to an area populated with people probably wasn't the best idea.
Oddly enough I wasn't as tired as I thought I'd be. Being a shut in I assumed I'd of collapsed and died after the first hour, but my body felt fairly comfortable. Thinking about how winded I was earlier when I ran to stop Daniel, I thought this trip would be far rougher. Maybe it was because I ran with everything I had? Maybe my job gives me some sort of buff?
I had been looking and trying to understand my status as I walked. The UI was really... bare bones. I was regretting not doing that introduction. Not only do I not know where anything is, I don't understand the basics of this world, nor do I know about my own abilities. Isn't this as good as getting IKEA furniture and not having the manual?
I had learned a few things since I started this walk. First of all, I seemed to have leveled up. I had not noticed how many people my zombies had killed, but I'm guessing it was a lot. Including that big bandit leader, it seemed to be enough for me to level up. I can increase my strength by killing... I wonder if there is any other way?

It seems with my level up I got a point to spend on Active Skills, but nothing for Passive Skills. I have no idea when I'll get that. I also have some points called OP Points. I'm not sure what the OP stands for. Operation? Overpowered? How do I spend them? I figured it was a key phrase, much like "status", but since I didn't take the introduction I have no idea what it is. I did figure out how to use my Active Skill Points, that one was surprisingly user friendly.
"Allocate active skill points."
<Choose a skill to allocate points>
<Reanimate Level: 1>
<Summon Skeleton Level: 0>
<Drain Life Level: 0>
I ended up adding a level to Drain Life. Currently I am useless without my zombie, and I can't bring this thing into a populated area. Not to mention I don't know how long the spell lasts still. It was still following me around even now, but if the spell ended I'd be a sitting duck without another corpse handy. I don't just keep them in my back pocket ya know?
I also hoped the spell would be less gruesome than the zombie, while I had gotten a bit more used to it, I'd still rather not see a person torn apart in front of me. I'd have to find something to try it on, maybe I can find a bug or something?

Still I really wish I knew how to use these OP Points, but I couldn't figure out the phrase. If it is like the "Power Overwhelming" cheat code I'll never figure it out just by trying random...
