Capítulo 87: Chapter 87
As darkness enveloped his senses for a few brief moments, Jack wondered where he would find himself this time.
Merely a few moments later, that very question was answered as Jack felt his senses return to him.
Snapping his eyes open, Jack lifted himself off of the ground and looked around.
All around him was a dense lush forest, a completely different environment from the last two dungeons.
One had been a gravelly wasteland whilst the other had been an apocalyptic city, both of which had shared a similarity.
They had been devoid of all life besides the monsters.
This time, Jack could hear the birds, the crickets, the wildlife.
It was as if he had been transported into a forest in the real world rather than a dungeon.
'Is it because Cold ones can't live without a source of food? But that brings another question.' Jack thought as he chose a random direction and started walking, letting his luck stat do the rest of the work.
'That would mean that the dungeons are actually different worlds and dimensions that continue to exist even if I haven't unlocked them or aren't using them, however, every time that I'm in a dungeon, I kill every single enemy, so if I left and returned then I shouldn't have faced the ghouls and zombies again... unless...' Jack thought as he looked above him, beyond the trees and into the sky.
Up there he saw three moons.
'Unless I get transported to a different planet.' Jack thought as his brows furrowed slightly.
Continuing his trek through the deep forest, Jack saw the wildlife, they looked exactly the same as the ones on Earth.
Feeling curious, Jack quickly caught a squirrel and studied its outward appearance more closely.
'There's no difference with the ones in the real world or would it be better to say no difference from the ones on earth.' Jack thought as he bit the squirrel and quickly drained its blood.
'The blood is also the same.' Jack thought before throwing the dead corpse of the squirrel away.
Continuing to explore the forest, Jack found no signs of the so-called 'Cold Ones', nothing at all.
Hours passed by before Jack finally saw the surroundings start to change.
And that wasn't all.
His supernatural hearing allowed him to start hearing different voices, far away from his current location.
'Cold ones?' Jack wondered as he quickly increased his speed and headed toward the direction of the sound.
[ Ding! ]
[ A quest has been generated! ]
Hearing the notification sound, Jack stopped immediately.
It had been a while since a random quest had been generated for him from the system.
'What is it?' Jack thought as he opened the quest menu and took a look.
[ Quests ]
[ Eliminate the Cold One Tribes ] [ 0/274 ]
Looking at the number of enemies, Jack's brows furrowed.
'If I were to fight all of them at once, I would definitely face immense trouble even with the large difference in strength between us. Let's just hope that there are more than two tribes.' Jack thought as he once more began his sprint toward the voice.
Finally, after around two minutes, Jack arrived at the location.
Hiding behind a large tree whilst maintaining his stealth, Jack observed what the voices had been.
Around one hundred meters away, Jack saw two small children who were laughing at each other and playing in a grass field.
'This...' Jack thought before using Vampiric Observe.

'Cold One children?' Jack thought as he looked at the two.
'That shouldn't be possible unless they were first human children, does that mean that humans also exist in this place, or did the tribes here find a way to regain their reproduction ability or are they really just creations of the system?' Jack felt hundreds of questions pierce his mind as he looked at the two children playing joyfully with each other.
One thought overtook them all, however.
'Do I have to kill children?' Jack thought before using the Justice Skill.
[ Justice has been used. ]
[ Targets have been judged as good. ]
[ User's stats have been lowered! ]
Jack immediately turned his perk off, seeing his strength return once more as the debuff got deactivated.
Jack felt no guilt in killing the children, however, he knew that once he did so, he would have crossed a line that would make him completely unrecognizable, someone who he himself wouldn't even know anymore.
'Is it worth it? Is killing children and gaining power worth losing the basic principles of who I am as a person?' Jack thought before his mind went back to the kidnapped victims whom he had turned into vampires.
'What's so different between what I did to them and killing children? A life is a life.' Jack thought before his eyes sharpened, his killing intent surged as a blood aura seemed to radiate from his body.
At that moment both of the children raised their heads to look toward Jack's direction.
Their eyes were amber, the two children had never once drank human blood.
And they would never even after this day.
For the two young children wouldn't live to see the next morning.
*Thump* *Thump*
Both of their heads fell off their shoulders, Jack had killed the two before they had even known what was comming.
Jack felt his heart start beating quicker than usual for but a brief second before returning to its normal beating rate.
The Gamer's mind had failed for but a moment.
