Chapter 4 - Looting in real life

He went back outside and did the same thing on the next 3 flats. Nothing happened, he got more supplies and no one was there. People must have left for the week-end. They were only one flat left.

He opened the door and went inside. Its been 3 hours since he began looting. He became less cautious. Something jumped on him at soon as he went inside. He falls and pushes it away. He rolled and face it.

"Fuck, wh… ?" he screamed.

In front of him, a little boy was facing him, he looked like a 10-years-old but blues veins denoted on his pale skin. He roared and he rushed again to Kalel.

" Don't do that kid !"

The kid hit him violently, he was strong. He received a blow to the face. Kalel felt afraid and began to panic. He hit the kid back with his crowbar once. He went back up and attacked him again. Kalel hit him again and again and again and again and again…. Kalel was crying, the kid stopped to move after a while.

' Congratulations, you defeated your first monster. By killing monsters, you can get stronger.'

' You defeated an intelligent mutant. + 0,1 to strength.'

Kalel didn't move for a while. His mind was blank. He came back to himself and went near the dead body, the kid had a lot of blood on him. Next to his body there was a page. He took it.

' You got your first Skill page. It is a rare random skill page. If you wish to learn the skill, you need to tear the page'

Kalel wanted to leave this place. However, he checked this other room. There was another body in the bedroom of a woman. Probably the mother. It made him feel better because he was now seeing as a monster the little kid. He felt better and decided to leave this apartment.

***

Kalel went back home. He took a long shower. He finally accepted that he will need to kill to survive and that he needed to learn to leave with it.

It was 1 PM now. He made himself some spaghetti. After that he checked his status once again.

Kalel

Level: N/A

Health: 1,3

Intelligence: 1

Stamina: 1

Vitality: 2

Strength: 1,7

Agility: 1,4

Perception: 0,9

He felt indeed stronger. He was wondering what skill he will get. It was random but rare and it seems better than normal. He was just hoping to get some useful offensive ranged skill like fireball or lightning strike. It always better to stay far away from danger especially at the beginning and if he felt tired after each fight, his stamina was depleting fast he needed to get up asap. With his experience in gaming he knew he needed to get stamina up firstly the agility, strength, health and vitality. He wanted to go for a warrior/tank strategy because the tank always lives the longer.

He teared his skill page.

' You acquired the rare skill Space pocket. '

( Space pocket : it allows the user to create a space pocket where you can store items. You can open up one gate (+ 1 gate every 5 level) to this space. The size depends on your level. Rare: food and perishable stored inside don't rot. )

Kalel read it twice. He had mixed feeling about it, this skill will be useful but he will have to struggle in fight. He decided to activate, he just though the skill name and a gate just appeared next to him. The gate was 6 ft tall, it was black and was kind of shacking. After a moment, he went inside, it was bigger that he thought. It was the size of a dressroom.

In the future he will need to move and this space pocket can help him hide himself if he is in danger. The best think was that the things don't rot, it will increase his survivability. It wasn't so bad. He placed all his supplies, kitchen's utensils, even his mattress, pillows, some clothes and medicines.

It was now 3 pm, he will check the rest of the building then leave tomorrow. His building was to far way from everything to make it into a base
