Chereads / Paradise Within Apocalypse / Chapter 3 - Luck Box

Chapter 3 - Luck Box

๐€fter a small walk I returned home. My home is a normal sized house with two floors. I walked upto the door then pressed the doorbell. ~๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ. Aunt Lily,our house-maid,said and and opened the door with a nonchalant expression. Greeting her I went towards the drawing room and my saw my family sitting there while watching TV. Then my father noticed me ~ ๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ. He said. I nodded and went towards him.

~ Did you receive any weird message?

He asked me in a worried voice. I instantly realised what he is asking about.

~ I did but did you also receive those?

I asked him to make my doubts clear. He nodded.

~ Come here and look at the TV.

My mother said to me, so I moved my gaze to the TV and what I saw made me speechless. The special forces of our country is currently fighting with the weird looking creatures or goblins while evaluating the citizens. And the news channel is currently showing more than 10 of these cases.

~ What should we do?

My mother asked with a sad expression on her face.

~None of us will leave the house until it's safe outside. I'm sure the government will take step and ensure our safety.

My father said firmly. He is a businessman and is well versed in political matters.~ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ด๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ? My mother asked, well she is a high school teacher so it's a normal question for her.

~ I think the government will dismiss the school and colleges temporaryly.

Father said worriedly. After that we talked about a few more things before I retired to my room. Lying on my bed I recalled the things I did today and tried to open the status. But how should I call that? Should I think about calling it?

As I was thinking it suddenly came out. It's really looks like a game. And I guess the stats are the representation of my abilities. Strength 5 and Agility 9.Hmm my strength seems a bit low. So I tapped on strength and surprisingly it increased

Ohh so the sp is used to increase points. Umm vitality 7 and intelligence 9 . It seems like my strength is the lowest so I spent my other two points on strength too
