"Squeeeeeeak…" The rats screamed as soon as they spotted William and charged at him.
William gulped and gripped the hilt of his sword tightly …This shouldn't be any more different than killing regular rats, I hope…
William scanned the area in his field of view and at least 12 rats were charging at him. The four that were ahead of the others and slightly faster had their levels and HP bar hanging above their head …I should eliminate these level 1 rats first…
William charged back instead of waiting for them to surround him …I remember those days I played Dishon*red. The ones in front of the horde of rats will first try to make their target fall flat on the ground…
"Squeak!" The lv.1 rat furthermost ahead sprung into the air and aimed for William's face.
…As expected! William smirked and stabbed the rat in the abdomen and it dematerialized almost immediately.

I will speed up this virtual world part and possibly end it in the next chapter. I don’t know, writing has been so hard for me nowadays. I don’t feel the zeal, maybe it’s this part that’s just hard to write with all the research and math. I’ve just been feeling disappointed in myself. I had this novel in my head long before WSA2022 started. This novel was supposed to be the fruit of my one-year experience in writing on Webnovel without earning a dime. I thought I had a laid out plan but it’s almost 2 months and this novel hasn’t received a contract while novels of 14 chapters, 17 days old, and 68 cols are getting contracts for WSA. I try my best in every chapter and every story to make it great but maybe writing isn’t just for me. At this rate, the highest I might get in wsa if I’m lucky is bronze. I’ve been known to possess "zero luck or fortune."
