Chereads / Battle Royale Of Dead / Chapter 2 - Daily Life

Chapter 2 - Daily Life

After I rested for a while I finally got out of bed, I began to exercise and stretch my body, well even though this body is thin and seems to be malnourished but the arms are pretty hard, even though there are no bulging and bulky muscles like athletes but because I often work to be a body This is not too bad.

I exercised for a while, after that I came out of the room and saw an old and small room, I went to the bathroom and washed my face, I saw the water in the tub had begun to thin so I took a bucket near the bathroom door and went out home.

Walking in this untreated slum, this place is very dirty, lots of rubbish scattered on the side of the road and the foul odor also smells. After a few minutes of walking I saw a well that was often used by people in this slum to fetch water, I began to fetch water using a bucket.

After a few times back and forth fetching water, the bathtub in the bathroom was full and also I had taken water for cooking purposes.

I looked at the clock on my cellphone showing at 7:35 and it was time to go to work but before going to work I took a shower and changed my clothes, well all my clothes were very bad so even though the change was still not much change but the clothes were cleaner yeah I really liked cleanliness.

After eating breakfast I walk out of the house, walk down this slum, maybe for some people the slum is a den of criminals well that's true but if you wear an appearance like myself walking in the slums is definitely safe, yeah unless you're a woman and you are beautiful then hehe I can't guarantee it.

A few minutes later I saw the highway, I walked beside the highway and while walking I saw a familiar sight, I felt very nostalgic, well first when I had obtained money from MARSH I had moved to a rich area, but actually I was very sorry at first , first I did not find the feature to transfer money, well I used to think maybe the world was not related to this world, until one day I tried to sell some gold coins to players and told him to transfer to an account on earth, actually it was just a trial and the results turned out to be transferable but 50% deducted for taxes.

Right now it's better to forget about money issues because I have to work, I keep going and after a few minutes of walking I finally see a market, of course not a supermarket. This is a traditional market in the city of Surabaya.

Then I entered the market, after searching for a while I finally arrived at a rice shop, I got to know the owner of this shop and he was a Javanese person more important he was a good person and not stingy, maybe in Indonesia many people thought that Chinese people were stingy but actually if we look at the perspective of luck in my opinion they are not stingy actually they are very professional and maximize profits.

When I arrived I saw a man in his 30s with a body height of 180cm and black hair, that man was actually almost the same height as me and I was a little taller, actually 180cm taller than an average Asian person, because in Indonesia the average person is tall the body is 170cm and this is for men and for women maybe 160cm.

The man is my boss, his name is Roy, when I entered the shop Roy looked back and saw me and he said: "Turns out you are Julius, finally you come too quickly to the warehouse. Soon many orders will be sent".

"OK, boss, I'll be there".

After that I went to the storage room and started working, I lifted the sacks of rice into the pickup.

...

I worked for 7 hours and now I see the clock shows 16:20 and it seems already late, my body is very tired, though it's pretty tiring, but I don't want to quit this job, why, because here the payment is pretty much and also during the day day can get free lunch.

As usual today I get a salary of Rp. 100,000 well don't look at this very large number you know Rp.100,000 is equal to $ 10, well a very small number but for developing countries like Indonesia this is already a lot, especially the average salary in the city of Surabaya is Rp.70,000 and not getting lunch it's free, that's why I consider my work to be very good, well even though I can't buy luxury goods, this money is enough to eat for 3 days even if I want to save I can eat 5 days with $ 10.

(Note: I use an exchange rate of $ 1 = Rp. 10,000).

Because it was late afternoon so I walked out of the market, but before I went home I bought food first, I bought cheap food by the side of the road, well even though it might not be like five-star food but what I liked was the amount, only with Rp. 10,000 you can buy rice and vegetables sometimes if the seller is good you can get side dishes, so after buying food I go to the store not far from where I buy food, I buy mineral water, well the price is not expensive at only Rp.7,000, so today this is me using Rp.17,000 to buy food and drinks. After buying everything I go home with a bag filled with food and drinks, I got home first to take a shower before eating.

I ate dinner alone, maybe this is my fate to live alone but I have to be patient and keep fighting because if I want to change this gloomy fate I have to try my hardest. Dinner was finished, I began to clean up the trash and started sweeping the room, after that I washed my clothes and hung them inside the house. After completing all my work I saw my cellphone, well I sometimes hate this thing but with this thing I can change my destiny.

When I turned on my cellphone, I started playing games, this was just to cheer myself up because I didn't have a TV so that I wouldn't go crazy I'd better play games, actually this phone is already a good cellphone.

It's close to the level of a smart phone. but this year especially in Indonesia it's already very sophisticated and the price is expensive, do you think I bought this phone? Of course not if I want to buy it I need to save a few million rupiah so I can't afford it, I also don't know this cellphone I found in the market and actually I wanted to sell it but at that time because I didn't have a cellphone I didn't sell it and use it.

I played the game for a while, because I was very tired so I put the cellphone down and slowly closed my eyes and fell asleep.
