Interrogation
The room was filled with silence after John posed the question to Max."Max, I'm not asking again," John insisted.Max was utterly confused by what was going on. First, he had woken up in a dark space where he thought he was dead, and now, all of a sudden, he was in a hospital with two Pro Reapers standing in front of him."John, calm down. I'm sure the kid's already overwhelmed by everything that's happened," Amy tried to convince him.John sighed. Maybe she was right; he needed to calm down. The boy was just a kid, after all."Alright, kid, let me explain this."Max was already confused enough, so he decided to listen to what this Reaper had to say. He was really hoping they could also explain that strange black space he'd found himself in."First of all," John began, "we were successful in taking down that malevolent ghost today…all thanks to you, that is.""Oh yeah, I think I remember that…""Sigh, please let me finish speaking before you interru—""Oh, I'm so sorr—""LET ME FINIS
Void
Where… where am I?" Max whispered, slowly opening his eyes. Everything was dark. The air felt dense and cold, sending a chill crawling through Max's spine.He blinked a few times, trying to focus his vision. The darkness didn't fade, It felt endless, but while scanning the area, a familiar notification popped up in front of him[B-Rank ghost has been defeated][Reward: 70 exp][Exp: 70/50][Level up!][Curent level: 2]The messages just kept coming, but Max was just excited he had finally managed to level up[2 stat points have been received][Exp: 20/100]As much as Max would love to explore the system more at the moment, there were more pressing matters he needed to deal withHe sat upright, feeling a slight headache. His mind was foggy, his stomach a bit empty, but that wasn't his concern right now.What really worried him was where he was.Looking on his left, Max could see an endless black void, and on his right, the same emptiness stretched on forever."What…what is this place?
Run
Clang!The sound of metal echoed violently through the area, sharp and deafening.Max slowly opened his eyes to see what was happening, but then froze at the sight before him."Gah! Don't just stand there kid, RUN!" John groaned, gripping his war hammer tightly as he struggled to push the creature back."But… ho—""Just Shut the hell up and run already! This is no time for questions. Just move!"Max, feeling slightly embarrassed and terrified, obeyed the reaper's command and sprinted off before he lost his life for real this time.The reason he was even alive was thanks to John's Curse Factor, a short-range teleportation ability. The creature had been too fast for anyone to react, but the moment John saw its eyes lock onto the boy, his instincts screamed, and without hesitation, he teleported right in front of Max, just in time to block the ghost's deadly claw swipe with his hammer."Gah… is it just me, or did it just get stronger?" John gritted his teeth.The chaos around them only
Big mistake
The class had ended not long ago, and it was now break time for the students.The students were currently in the cafeteria taking their lunch. Most sat in groups to enjoy their food together, but Max who had no friends to speak of sat alone in a far corner of the hall.Max hadn’t eaten much. He just sat there quietly, lost in his own thoughts, staring at the system message that had appeared before him.—————————«User: Max Cole»Level: 1HP: 100/100Exp: 0/50«Level up as soon as possible, or face the consequences.»—————————He read the message again and again, still trying to make sense of it.'Level? Exp? Missions?' he thought.'Is this like those video games I used to play as a kid?'That was the only logical conclusion he could come up with. Ever since he woke up, it get like his body had gone through a lot of changes. For one, his senses were slightly sharper than before. He could hear the two girls in front of him gossiping about their crushes. Even though they were too far f
A message
The streets buzzed with chatter as Max walked along the sidewalk, heading for schoolActually…he was running He was already late, and he had to hurry before that one teacher came in.Because he was late, he had already missed the bus, so running was his only option.Even on other days, Max intentionally didn't like taking the bus. Whenever it stopped to pick him up, he was usually among the last to get in, and the moment he entered, he got weird stares from his classmates, other students, and even the bus driver himself.A lot of them laughed at him, whispering names and all sorts of things. It was so bad that most people didn't even want Max to sit next to them. Whenever he was about to, they'd intentionally tell him the seat was reserved for somebody else.Even on days when Max got to a seat first, eeryone else didn't want to sit next to him, they'd rather stand for the entire ride than sit next to a failure like him.It was because of situations like that that Max never took the b
New look
Beep! Beep! Beep!Even with the sound of the alarm, Max still wasn't getting up from his sleep."Brooo, wake up already!" Jimmy cried, shaking Max's body violently. Max shared the same room with his 7-year-old brother, Jimmy. Truthfully, it very hard for Max to sleep sometimes when he has to deal with his little brother’s snoring , but he had to manageHe squinted slightly before finally opening his eyes. The first thing he saw was a young boy with huge blue eyes staring right down at him."Ah—get off me!" he snapped, shoving his little brother off his chest."Ouch… My head," he murmured, rubbing his temple as he groggily sat up in bed."Whoa! Bro, what happened to your hair? When did you dye it, wasn't it black just yesterday?""Dye? What the hell are you talking about?" Max snapped back.He rubbed his eyes a few times to get rid of the sleep…but then he froze.'Hold on a second…'Max paused, his hand still in his hair. His gaze darted around the room. His bed, the walls, his half-
