Tristan firstly decided to take as many things as possible. He will soon have to leave this house anyway.
Still to take much he didn't have a bag large enough for that. That's why he only took essential things such as food enough to survive for a few days and a metal baseball bat. He also took some hand bags just in case that this bag was not enough.
Even with this much the bag was still mostly empty because the bag was a hiking bag and had enough space to store a convertible sleeping bag.
Though Tristan already had plans for what to store in his bag. He took the bag and came out of his apartment. He looked at the door for one more time before continuing.
He firstly walked towards the direction of the 24 hours convenience store near his building. He never visited it before as most things such as groceries and snacks were ordered online but this time he didn't have time.
"Welcome." The old woman who was on the counter said with a smile. She was watching a late night TV show because even though it is 24 hours, not many people come after 10 pm.
Tristan didn't say anything and went towards the shelf where all the gym and protein food stuff were stored. He took two whole boxes of protein bars which had enough fat to be considered a meal.
"Going on a mountain hike. It's nice to be young." The old woman was surprised to see Tristan buying so many protein bars but still kindly and politely voiced out her thoughts.
"Are you the owner of this place?" Tristan asked while the old woman was noting the stuff Tristan brought in the computer.
"Well, yes. This store is owned by my son. Usually he does the night shift but due to a slight fever I came today." The old woman said she finished the process and took the money from Tristan.
"Carry a public gun or weapon. Who knows what might happen in the future." Tristan replied while storing more than 100 Protein bars in his bag.
'Because by tomorrow you will surely require that weapon.' Tristan thought to himself.
"Hoho~, yes I will surely do that." The old lady just laughed his worry off. She and her son started this convenience store 10 years ago and no one from then has ever tried to rob it.
Tristan simply smiled and went on his way. At the very least he won't feel guilty as he advised her, listening to him or not was her own decision.
"He might be going to stay there a whole week I guess." The old lady thought after Tristan left the store. She won't forget him because he might have been the first to ever advise on security to him.
"I guess I should talk it out with my son." For some weird reason she wanted to believe in Tristan.
Tristan after leaving the convenience store went towards the taxi stop and sat there. There was practically no one but Tristan didn't care about it much.
He kept repeating his plan until a taxi finally stopped and Tristan entered the taxi.
"Where do you want to go, sir?" The driver asked, he was wide awake because he usually used to work at night as the fare became higher.
"Calvary Cemetery, Queens." When Tristan said that the driver was a bit confused but he didn't think much because getting out of Brooklyn will make at least a couple of hundred dollars.
"Is there a particular reason to go this early in the morning in the cemetery?" The taxi driver asked to pass the time while driving.
"I have decided to change myself. So why not start by saying sorry to someone who I have lost." Tristan knew that it would be suspicious if he said for no reason. That's why he lied through his teeth.
"Oh, okay." The driver said with a small smile. Tristan didn't know what he thought about but whatever it was, it was in his favour.
After a few hours Tristan finally reached the cemetery. It was still early in the morning but there were still a few people out there.
Now it was simply a matter of time. After a few hours just as Tristan had thought the whole New York got covered.
Tristan opened his smartphone and saw various news online. Tristan clicked on the global news and saw the special news.
"Today through various geographical and seasonal research centres a new page of history is going to be written. After countless hours of reading we have come to understand that the world is going through a severe natural phenomenon." The news reporter continued.
"Various forms of natural disasters are predicted to happen all across the world, including all the countries of the world. Some are so bizarre that they can't even be believed, for example; our New York City is going to go through a flood. Even though these are just predictions, please refrain from going out of your house just to be on the safer side." The news reporter finally concluded.
'They are not serious about this at all, eh…?' Tristan thought with a helpless smile.
If he didn't have Alucards memories even he won't believe what is happening but no matter how sour and painful the truth is truth.
Soon this world will be invaded by various bizzare creatures who can only be seen in fantasies.
The reason behind this is completely Unknown even to Alucard but Tristan knew that this will change a lot of things and many people will die. To survive one needs to grow stronger.
From today only those who have accepted the soon to be changed world will grow and those who can't accept it will just be cannon fodder or stepping stairs for the better of humanity.
While Tristan was waiting in the cemetery the weather became more and more unstable. Firstly it was just rain but then the rain became stronger and stronger until the whole land was getting flooded.
Tristan simply observed these changes while checking various countries' weather conditions. Finally the time had come which was anticipated by Tristan.

[Evolution system initialization processing…]
[Evolution system initialization process completed !!]
A Green colour holographic screen appeared in front of Tristan. The screen just not appeared in front of Tristan but to every single human on the planet.
Everyone was confused except for Tristan. Tristan was looking around his surroundings and spotted something happening in midair. Tristan went towards it to observe the phenomenon.
A small black hole was appearing in front of Tristan while the colours around it were getting distorted like a portal was opening.
[This is a message from your home planet. Humans have given me many names but the most famous one which is known by every single human, Earth.]
[The world you know about up till now is going to change soon. The disturbance in dimensional planes will soon connect the Earth to various planes.]
[Various creatures who have been living in different planes will enter the world. To survive and fight off against the different races I have created a system which will allow you to use the energy present in every living being, mana.]
[The Evolution system will allow you to break free from the restrictions of morality and help you to grow along with these changes. I wish you best luck in your path as an evolved human.]
[I will name this phenomenon as the apocalypse. Apocalypse is divided into various phases. This is the base phase where only small semi dimensions called dungeons will appear.]
[I wish you all good luck for the upcoming future.]
The screen finally disappears while a new instinct or a natural memory appears in every single human about how to use the system.
Tristan kept looking towards the direction of the black hole which was getting bigger and bigger with every passing second.
The black hole finally stopped spreading after it became two times the size of Tristan.
It was like a portal which appeared in midair with dense gas of green colour on the edge of the portal. Even though Tristan was only standing in front of the portal he felt eerie and creepy in front of the portal.
Such portals appear all across the world with different gas colours in different places. These were without a doubt the dungeons which the screen told about.
[Dungeon :- Graveyard of Undead (First Generation)
Monsters :- Undead
Rank :- none
Enter limit :- 1 (all people must enter together as after entering no one can exit until person who enter dies)
Dungeon break : 1 minute]
After the portal was completely built a new screen gave the information of the dungeon to Tristan. Tristan simply glanced at the screen once before looking towards the direction of the dungeon with a small smile.
'Let's get started now, shall we?' Tristan asked himself with a smirk.
