Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 2, AWAKENING

Zae thinks to himself while imagining himself to be in a void space where his body was floating.

"Zae wake up"

An unknown voice starts echoing through his mind.

His body felt a sudden pull and was pulled towards an opening in the void.

"So you're finally up!"

Kiri sitting on a stone slab near the entrance of the cave.

"You were out for long, we tried to wake you up but you wouldn't even budge."

Noto with a very calmed expression.

"Where are those wolves?Why are we still alive? those wolves should've killed us"

Zae hastily brings this up with a panicked look.

"Don't worry they're all dead. I dont know who did it but we were saved"

Kiri with a calm yet confused face.

Zae stands up and moves towards Kiri while Noto helping him up and follows up with Zae.

Zae with a very serious face.

Zae was quite happy about this.

While they were still grasping bout what was happening, the blue screen had grown larger and had more information in them

Zae sneakily peeks into both Kiri and Noto's status windows

"Ehhh why are yours different than mine?"

Zae with a jealous look

"whats wrong with my stats?"

Zae starts his complaining behaviour

Kiri and Noto looks into his status window*

"All stats? it should mean if you invest here then all your stats will grow right?"

Kiri with a confused face

Zae eyes starts to shine up and makes a very proud pose out of nowhere.

"Ha Ha Ha seems like I'm more powerful than you guys"

Zae with a proud voice with a smirk on his face

"But your stat points are lesser than ours"

Noto adds

Zae shocked*

He quickly looks back at his status window and then Kiri's and then Noto's

"WHY????!!!!!"

Zae screams in a crying voice with flood of tears falling down his eyes but his expression was more of a disappointment than of sadness

"hhmmmpppph"

Kiri and Noto couldn't control their laughters and start bursting out

"don't worry you overall stats will be better than us"

Kiri continues laughing

"Stop it you two, don't bully me"

Zae says these words in a pitiful tone

"Lets see, if there is a status window then there should also be a skill window"

Kiri stops laughing and adds while changing his expression from laughter to calmness

"Noto your skills are the best, but the mana consumption is way too much"

Noto with a smile on his face.

"Forget about skills right now, we need to see to our stats"
