Hearing those sounds or rather those voices.

Screams full of fear and cries of pain.

With their inability to change their current fate, together with shouts of anger or their own poor naivety. Thinking that they can change everything just because of their positions in society.

I hate such kinds of people.

Nevertheless, all those voices and the smell of blood in the air were covered by the sounds of gunshots and the scent of gunpowder.

What was going on?

How did this happen?

Why did this happen?

His was just supposed to be one another concert which was a little more important than the other ones... and yet...

The stage where he was going to perform was struck by a terrorist which resulted in countless deaths. After complaining internally of the turns of events. I started crawling away from the stage. But pain followed shortly after.

"Agh...my legs!" after trying to move, he noticed what state this body currently was in.

The explosion from the stage completely manage to chop one of his legs, while his other leg was barely being kept together from some muscle tissue. He also realized that he was bleeding heavily from his head since blood was starting to cover his eyes.

Of course, the pain was enough to make everyone cry out from the pain but he tried to keep his voice down as low as possible in hope that he wouldn't attract unwanted attention towards him.

Unfortunately, his struggle was meaningless.

While he was slowly crawling away, someone suddenly kicked this back with a huge amount of force, making him cry aloud in such amount of pain that moving an inch of his body was torture itself.

The one who kicked was one of the Terrorists.

The man opened his mouth and said something in a language that I couldn't understand. Shortly after, two other Terrorist came up and started laughing sinisterly for some reason.

But soon enough I realized why.

Baaam!

An incredible amount of pain came from my back together with a loud noise.

"Arghhhhh!" I screamed so loud that my vocal cords felt like exploding. The pain alone made me feel like my consciousness was fading away.

But I was naive.

Baam! Baam! Baam!

Multiple bullets were shot at my body. At first my shoulder, then left and right leg, and in my palms.

The pain was enormous...so strong that it was enough to bring my consciousness back.

I pained, despaired, confused, and at last.

Anger.

"Why!? Why are you doing this! For what purpose! For what reason! What will you achieve by doing this! What will you gain by doing this! Tell me!" I shouted with all my strength at them.

The Terrorists that were laughing a moment ago stopped and looked at me with a serious look. One of them bend to his knees and started talking in a language that I could understand.

"Why you ask? Isn´t it obvious?" The man's serious face turned into an even more sinister smile than the one before.

"Because it is fun!"

...huh? what did he just say?

"The sole reason why we are doing this is that we have the power of doing this. As a sinner like you, you should be grateful for our kindness by putting an end to this sinful life of yours. Also, If what I am doing brings me happiness at the cost of your happiness, why should I care?"

He puts this handgun at top of my head, while I was still dazed by the man's explanation.

"Afterall, that's what humans are"

Glaring at them I gritted my teeth and my eyes became bloodshot. How can someone like him be a human!? Ruining the life of others for their benefit can be understood. Since in our current time making enough for a living is extremely hard. But ruining the lives of others for what? Fun? Pleasure? Those are a madman!

"You guys aren`t human! If that's what humans are, I wish I was never a Hum-"

Baam!

That was the last sound that I heard before everything went pitch blank.

Seeing my surroundings there was nothing, just pure darkness. I could only feel that I was slowly sinking into some kind of water. The more I sank, the more my consciousness was fleeing from my body.

"Mother...Brother...I should have listened...I am sorry that I...I...what was it again?" When my whole body sank beside my head I felt like my whole head was cleaned from any memories or any kind of information.

"Wait... where am I?" Now that I sank completely, I felt like my whole body became numb from my senses.

Inside there I even completely lost the sense of time.

A moment felt more like a whole decade.

Not that I know what a moment felt like...

So I kept sinking like this on what felt like decades. Completely Emotionless with no sense of Touch.

But for some kind of reason, I could feel one single Emotion...Hatred towards the so-called humans!

I didn't know the reason why but I despised humans to the very core.

I kept hating and despising these so-called humans for what felt like an all eternity.

Until I saw a massive silhouette before me.

And then, the feeling of being pulled from my inside out came before me.

I felt like being crushed and then remade again and again just so that this vicious circle can continue.

But what was more strange was that I could feel all these things. Feelings that I never experienced or rather... Forgot.

As I was confused by all those emotions, I heard a very cold and low voice inside my head.

"Your wish...has been acknowledged."

Before I could think about what the massive silhouette meant. The terrible feeling of being pulled from inside out faded away and the feeling of falling came.

*Splash!

"What the hel-!" Wait, I can talk? How come? And why can I see colors now?"

I tried to reach out my hand to check the area around me but... I felt a resistance!

It wasn`t like this before!

Before I couldn`t feel anything at all but now I felt a sense of...touch? I could feel the pressure of me pressing the ground with my hand but nothing else...as if something was missing...

I quickly dismissed these thoughts and I tried standing up.

After I fully stood up a different view came before him. In front of me was a beautiful-looking lake that was sparkling with blue light. Looking around me I saw some shining blue rocks on top of the lake to which I assumed were the light source of the blue lights.

Seeing this beautiful sight one would feel a sense of peace and appreciation.

"That`s weird...how did I end up here?" After collecting myself for a while a sense of confusion came straight to my mind.

"Huh? who am I?"

[Your Status is now available]

I stared blankly in front of me...

There was a blue-looking window in front of me that contained some familiar-looking words, even though he didn't know why... He could still read them.

them.

" Status? Class? Talents? What is this?"

I tried touching the window with my hand but it passed right through it. After toying around for some time I found out that I can close the window wherever I want if I put my mind to it.

"So the status is part of me...but what purpose does it serve? It seems like it has some kind of information that I can read but...What do these words mean?"

I tried touching all around the floating window to find some clues about it. Even though the sight of him swinging these hands in the air at nothing would have seemed comical to another person, in the end, he did find something by doing this.

[Status]: Information about the capabilities of the person possessing it.

"It seems like if I press on the following names a description will come out...Let us see, how about my Race?"

[Skeleton]: A former living being that was either resurrected as an undead by the use of necromancy or was resurrected by the nearby death mana. One of the weakest Undead.

'Why do I feel like it's trying to insult me? Telling me I am weak all...Next!'

[Undead]: As one of Undead you possess hate for the living. Although many consider this a curse others consider this a blessing for the benefits of Immortality. They Never Hunger, Never Tire.

This doesn`t sound too bad, it does say it is a curse but also a blessing. Without thinking much about it he went right after the other talent.

[Sin of Wrath]: Of the seven deadly sins, you have been judged to possess the sin of wrath! It strengthens the feeling of anger and hatred. While fighting an enemy with feelings of anger or hatred you gain 10% of every attribute. It also Increases the bloodlust that is being generated by 50%.

'I am not sure about this one though... It does sound positive but also not, the increase of strength sounds good but the others are kinda weird... that by not counting whatever bloodlust is supposed to be.

But I can't forget that the description says that I have been judged by someone, which means this talent has been given by me by someone... Right?

But why wrath though? Let's see, what other sins exist.

[Seven Deadly Sins]: The seven deadly sins can only be acquired by some specific conditions. The Sins are the following: Pride, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, Wrath, Lust, and Envy.

"Hmm, it does say that something specific has to be done for me to get a sin, but don't remember doing something at all..."

Dismissing the status window, he started taking a better look at these surroundings.

"How did I end up here? I remember I that fell into that dark swamp and then...then?"

For a minute I blankly stare ahead of me as if I was having some deep thoughts, but that didn't last for long.

"I should get out from now" Right before I left the water, my feet hit something.

Reaching my hand out to see what it was, I was somehow surprised by what I found.

[Rusted Sword]: A blade which long last has lost the ability to cut. Even though the edge is pathetically dull, It does have the ability to poison the ones that were cut by it...

"This sounds really useless... But it wouldn't hurt taking it anyway." After confirming how pathetic the edge was, which to no surprise was pathetically dull, he nodded this head and started roaming around the area until he found some kind of tunnel.

"Well...there is nowhere else to go other than this way" sighing internally, he started moving inside this tunnel until he met a new with a new sight, to which was...

*crack

A skeleton...like him!

Getting excited about finding someone that was like him, he waved this hand and started talking.

"Hey! You! Skeleton friend! How are you doing, all good? I would like to ask some questions about where we are!"

The skeleton with a Rusted Sword like me stared at me without showing signs of any movement. After what felt like 2 minutes it turned around and started walking away...

...

Seeing this I felt a kind of rejection...but I still tried to follow him since why not? I haven`t anywhere to go besides and being alone here reminded him of the dark swamp. Hence I followed! Like a baby duck would follow the mama duck!

But...even though I followed the fellow skeleton for what felt like hours I realized that we walking in a circle. After confirming my thoughts I went to confront him.

"Hey fellow skeleton, can I ask you why we repeating the same path time after time? Is there a reason behind it?"

No reaction...

At this point, I started to have some doubts... Could it be that he...I reached my hand to grab this shoulder bone and used my system to Inspect him as I did with the talents. And what came out shocked

me.

[Skeleton]: One of the weakest undead that there is, there are either puppets born by use necromancy or mindless undead born from nearby death energy.

"Mindless undead? more importantly, the description changed...but why?"

'Why would the description change when we are both of the same race? And it says that this skeleton fellow in front of me is mindless, in other words stupid. But in comparison to me, I am clearly more intelligent than him. Is that why?'

Unfortunately, my thoughts were interrupted by some kind of shrieking voice from our left. Looking in the direction of the voices I saw three small and awful-looking creatures to which one had a club and the other two had a smaller version of a sword.

Looking at them I felt some kind of discomfort in my chest and head.

Looking at my chest to confirm that there was nothing there, he couldn't help but get confused.

"What is going o-" before I could finish this happens.

"Kghhhh...!" The skeleton fellow beside me screeched with a high pitch voice which made me flinch slightly.

After he was done he ran awkwardly to these three small creatures and swung this rusted sword at the one with the club.

To my surprise, the skeleton fellow was able to inflict a large cut on the one with the club. Although it didn't look like a deep wound, it still surprised me.

'Wait, is that rusted toothpick able to cut something? What about not having an edge at all?!'

Me complaining about the status of false information internally. The fight was still happening.

After the one with the club was slashed by the skeleton fellow, it started screaming and swinging this club in the air. Doing that made the other two start screaming and attacking the skeleton fellow with their small swords.

This made me realize that the one that held the club must be their leader.

"I should help the skeleton fellow before he..." sadly the skeleton fellow didn't like the idea of teaming with him.

"Kghhh..!" Seeing the two green creatures attacking this legs and chest, to which made some of these bones starting to crack. He started swinging this sword violently at them.

With a swing from the top of this head, he was able to cut halfway through one of the creature's necks. Seeing this made it laugh sinisterly.

"Gwheheh!"

But before it could remove this sword from the green creature's neck...

"Skeleton Fellow! Behind you!"

Before he could react, the one with the club jumped from behind him and swung this club at this head, which resulted in breaking this whole head into pieces...

"Fellow!"

With Fellow down, the two remaining creatures started to focus on me...maybe if I had chosen to run the moment I saw them I would have been able to get away but now...that's no longer an option!

Dashing to the one with the small sword I tried to mimic the attack that Fellow performed but instead of one hand holding the rusted sword, he held it with both of them. Due though the height differences between our bodies and our weapons, I managed to hit this shoulder where he only touched my rib bones by the tip of the small sword.

The result was obvious...

"Kghah!"

"With this, there is one down and One remai-" Unfortunately the feeling of victory went away as fast as it came.

"...ing?" Seeing the one that I hit with my whole strength to just have a cut through up to this shoulder brown I cursed internally.

'Hey, how crappy is this sword? I know it said it doesn`t have an edge and all, but still, the skeleton fellow's sword made a much deeper wound than mine even when he used only one hand...

Seeing that the two creatures were approaching me I cursed inwardly.

"If I run away now I will probably getaway, but..."

Looking in front of me there is the one with the club and the one with the dagger. Both were injured so if I run away they will either get tired of chasing me or ignore me.

By one look you could clearly see that both of them were breathing heavily and sweating. It was the perfect opportunity to either run or finish them off. If there wasn`t this hot feeling I might have chosen the former but...

"This will be for Fellow!" I didn`t wait for them to recover and I struck while the iron was hot.

"You with the sword will be the first one!"

I tried to do the same thing but this time aiming this neck similar to how Fellow had done it, but to my surprise, it was able to block my swing. Although it did block the first strike...it let itself an opening for my next following strike. The strength differences between us were simply too much.

Even the rusted sword was able to cut through the soft flesh of this neck.

"Kgh!...ahhh!" Seeing the creature grabbing this neck in desperation to save itself from this demise. The feeling of my body burning came back stronger but it quickly disappeared upon seeing the one with the club sneaking behind me.

As if I fall for that!

I turned around swinging my rusted sword to hit the one with the club. But the only thing that I achieved by this was hitting the empty air...

The one with the club stared at me and I stared back with a dump face. Not like I got a face...

"..."

"..."

After like 3 seconds we both realize that we were still in a fight of life and...death? Wait, aren`t I suppose an undead that lives after dying? So this fight would be for life and undeath?

Sadly the one with the club interrupted my nonsense by striking back at me. Which was blocked by me.

After a few exchanges, I realized that it`s getting the weaker cause of Fellows previews wound.

But that quickly changed...

"Kual keah!" a faint green light came out of these legs, after the faint green light ended the thing that I next saw shocked me.

The one with the club jumped at me with incredible speed with the intent of smashing my head!

I raised my rusted sword in a panic to block the club from hitting my head. The rusted sword wasn`t able to handle the strength from the club and got destroyed into pieces!

Although I blocked the attack from hitting my face it allowed the club to hit my chest bones!

"Dammit! You useless piece of junk!" What the hell was that!? The strength and the speed are totally different from before! Was it because of the ligh-"

Status!? But I didn`t think of it. Wait, that status isn`t from me but the one with the club! That dammed thing is called goblin!

"Hm... the Attributes are lower than mine except for Endurance and it also got stamina which I don't, is it because I am an undead?" If the sudden strength didn`t come from the attributes then it can only be from these skills.

[Lower Weapon Mastery Lv.1]: You learned what purpose weapons of any kind should be used and how to handle them.

[Sprint Lv.1]: By Forcing mana into your leg you are able to surpass your limits thus being able to move at extreme speed for a limited amount of time. Though this method brings a heavy burden to your body.

"So that was it...although it seems dangerous if it uses it again, but...."

Seeing the Goblin falling with this shaking knees with a pale expression place on this face It probably can`t move right now.

"So that was a last-ditch effort? You probably didn`t think that I will be able to block it right? how..." I walked towards Fellows "corpses" and pick up this sword and slowly approached the goblin which had a despaired expression on this face.

"Foolish"

*thud

Seeing now the headless goblin falling down like a puppet whose strings had been cut, a feeling of satisfaction came towards me. As if a great burden has been lifted off my body.

[You received 300 Experience points]

"Huh?"

Experience points? what are those?

[Experience points] By using experience points you can Increase your current Level, Skills and possibly being able to gain new Talents.

Experience points can be gain through doing specific actions.

So that is how I can increase my status? Sounds rather simple, right now I have 400 experien- ah let's call it XP for convenience sake. Right now I gained 300 XP from the goblin with the club and...

"Wait a moment...!" I turned swiftly checking my surroundings only to see the goblin that I cut barely breathing.

"It`s still alive huh... let's check this status"

"To believe its still alive..."

I walked towards it and pierced this heart.

[You received 150 Experience points]

"Weird, I was able to pierce this skin easier than before with Fellows sword" At first glance of my current owned sword it seems like the trash of a rusted sword that I had but at a closer look this edge is still there except for some small pieces.

[Iron Sword (In the state of decay)]: A sword forged from iron. Although the material is of the lowest quality, the craftsmanship to great this blade is of the highest class. Currently, the blade has already decayed and lost most of this quality. A truly sad fate for any sword.

"No wonder that Fellow was able to damage them more...with such a treasure in this hand everything is possible!"

Now that I got myself a new sword I should see what all this crap with the XP is all about. As long as I understood it correctly I can use those to somehow reinforce myself...Let us see if there is something that I can use that 450 XP for.

[Remark: Weakest Undead that there is...Although there are spooky and scary their Strength is at rock bottom!]

Nothing changed...ah If I think of how much XP I currently it shows up similar to the status window. Well at least I can check how much XP I have, otherwise, it would have been quite awkward keeping count of it...

Let's see what I can get with 450 XP, first of all, let us see what the skills have to offer!

[Skills]

[Lower Weapon Mastery Lv.1]: 1000 XP required

[Miasma Corruption Lv.1] 5000 XP required

"Oh! oh...." Seeing that I can actually get something out of the XP and I can get similar powers to that goblin sudden strength boost excited me for a moment, but only after seeing that I cant buy them do I feel cheated... That's too cruel!

"Well, If I can get enough XP I would be able to get [Lower Weapon Mastery Lv.1] pretty soon, but what is that Miasma skill? Let's see.

[Miasma Corruption Lv.1]: A rare trait is seen upon the undead, to the lowest ranking undead at least. When an undead with a considerable amount of time existed, they begin to release dead mana to their surroundings which slowly destroys the environment around them. Undead in such an environment experience a small amount of improvement over time.

Increase of all attributes by 5

Lowerst the cost towards Dark, Curse, and Death based Skills by 5%.

Every 10 years, 1 attribute point is being granted.

"Increase of all stats by 5 sounds so good...but expensive as heck! of course, the discount sounds good if I get any of the affected skills.

This income of attribute per year should be the small amount of improvement over time that was mentioned before...It is alright since as I undead I am an immortal being but...isn`t that too pathetic? Seriously! In order to gain the same amount of stats that I have right now I would have to wait for what? 110 years!?"

After complaining for a while, I sigh heavily and dropping to the ground while holding my head.

"Sigh, I can't get anything from only 450 XP. I would have to somehow get more to get these two skills. let's see what there is on the talents to buy..."

[Talents]

---

"...Seriously?" Nothing? Like...at all?"

"No talents and no skills, what's left are the levels, please be cheap enough for me to effort" With trembling hands, I reached out and pressed on the level screen. And seeing what came out made me jump from my butt instantly.

[Level]: 400 XP required

"Ohhh!"

I instantly pressed on the window without any second thoughts.

[Level has increased from Lv.1 to Lv.2]

[Strength increased by 1, Agility increased by 1 and Endurance increased by 1]
