Sitting in the couch, a man in his thirties watched a video replay on his tv. 

He is living in this dark humid room for 15 years already.

The man is a bit malnourished with thin arms and legs.

His face pale and large eyebags carries his lifeless eyes.

"I am waiting for 15 years goddammit! When will they release the fricking game?!!"

The man punched weakly the armrest in his couch.

"I sacrificed everything for this game! My time! My money! My life! When will the game be released?!"

Punching the armrest multiple times, the man laments at the reality of the world.

Covering his weeping face, he begged with all of his heart and emotions alone. 

"Please release the game, I am going crazy. Please release the game, I might kill someone.
Please release the game, I might die at this rate."

Sitting in a couch, a man in his thirties watched a video replay and cried all alone.

He is living in this room for 15 years already, waiting for his own salvation be brought to him.

He weeped silently in his couch, in his dark humid room, and prayed with all of his heart.

And with faith and belief in his heart, 

His prayers did get answered.

Three days time after his episode, the man lines up towards his nearby game store.

Inside his mind, he is very excited and hyped about this game that he waited for who knows how long.

[Finally! Finally!! The game is released! Hahaha! Yes!! The most awaited masterpiece of a game developed by the greatest game developers is near within my reach!]

With his already weak legs, maintaining balance while trembling with excitement is a task usually very difficult for him.

But with the glorious masterpiece of a game in sight, he endured.

He waited hours and endured hunger along with the hot steaming breaths of people around him.

He endured.

Finally, with the end goal in sight, he stepped inside the nearby gamestore.

He weakly and slowly walked towards the reception desk. 

Because of the influx of people, only one person is allowed to enter the store.

Reaching the desk, he gripped tightly his trembling arms.

With a stuttering voice, he said,

"C-can I have o-one console please?"

Table of Leveling System?! What in the World is that?!
