I quickly hid behind a large rock near the entrance of the cave. Spying stealthily, I noticed a party of 4 people coming in my direction. Three man and one woman. They looked like an RPG party, one using heavy armor, one a bow and two using staves. I didn't know how strong I was, but the number 1 above my head didn't seem that overpowered.
They also had some numbers above their heads, all of them were level 3. At least I assumed that the numbers indicated levels.
There was no way I would be able to defeat them, so I just stayed hidden behind that rock. They passed through me and didn't even notice my presence. I didn't know why they wanted to get inside that cave, as I saw nothing of value in there. Not wanting to stay around for too long, I left, walking towards the forest that awaited me.
The birds I had listened earlier were still singing, which gave me an inner peace. I wanted to found a village and start my new life, that was before discovering that I was a skeleton. Maybe there are some skeletons village? Who knows.
My only concern was to level up, and to become stronger. The ultimate goal of a skeleton is to have hair, and I thought that the only way of achieving that was to get a higher level. If the way of getting experience points was the same as the RPGs I used to play, then all I had to do was kill something, so that's what I did.
One big wolf tried to attack me. My shiny white bones were the perfect bait for a dog... I mean a wolf. It bite me multiple times, and yet my bones were hard as steel. My black nails sliced through the wolf, and blood dripped everywhere. They were sharp, and it seemed like they also had some sort of toxin in it, scary. I was stronger than I thought. Being a skeleton wasn't that bad, if only I had hair.
A message appeared in front of my eyes. The system had notified me the amount of experience points the wolf had gave me, which was 5. Not good, but not that bad either, as I only needed 100 to get to level 2.

My stats weren't that bad, and I noticed that I was the mage type. Maybe becoming a Lich was the way to go. Anyway, my wolf hunting didn't stop there, and I explored the forest even more, in search of wolves.
I was afraid that the humans who entered the cave would leave soon and found me, so I tried to get to level 2 as quickly as possible, even though level 2 wouldn't be enought against them...
A pack of wolves entered my sight. I killed one after the other, and my XP bar rose quickly. The world I got transported seemed like an easy place , but then, a huge wolf appeared.
