Chapter 5 - Chapter 4: Tragedy and Hope

"Well!" a happy tone increased. "Have fun training then!"

"Wait!-"I was annoyed already-"Hey, you didn't tell me anything about this floor! Even about the enemy I must fight and the weapon I must use. At least, tell me that information before you leave, you dipshit!"

"Ah, I almost forgot about that! What do thou want to know first? Enemy or weapon?"

"Weapon. How to get that one? You give me from the surface, aren't you?"

"Hahahahal!" a happy laughter tone increased. "Nay!"

"What the heck!" surprised tone started to increase. "How I defeat them if you didn't give me that one?! It's ridiculous!"

Hearing that, he replied,

"There ain't no such thing as a free lunch! Thou'rt already knew about the basic of survival, an't? Just like an ancient human who hunted the mammoth or kind of that. Thou'rt must craft and build up thy weapon with those hands and use thy mind. Thy mind is the best weapon!"

"You're an asshole!" surprised tone increased. "How about I die? How about I get fatigued extremely? Even, how about I was hungry and thirsty?!!"

"Calme thy horse, my dear Besper! Thou arn't die. Only got a "funny sensation" when thou almost die-Ah, I mean, dying-Ah, fainted. That's it! Sorry for my word, Hehe!" while giggling for moments. "Don't worry about it. Only faint for while!"

(I'm sure that asshole said about dead stuff to me twice!) Annoyed already.

"If thou'rt hungry and thirsty," cleared his throat for a moment. " Thou arn't feel both of them Why? because of thy lucid dream and I controlled it. So, thou didn't feel both of them!"

(So, I didn't get hungry or thirsty because of my state condition? Luckily!) While relieved.

"Then!" I sighed. "How about the enemy? I didn't have a clue about that. So, give me a guide or similar like that!"

"Wait for a moment!"

After he said that, nothing he said again. Only me on the lowest floor which was bleak and desolate. This floor almost didn't have a light at all. It made me uncomfortable.

"Nostradamus, hurry up! What makes it so long for that shit!" I annoyed. "Also, give me the lighter or match!"

After a while moment, suddenly, he replied to my reaction,

"Here!" with tone happily. "I gave you a map and lighter in that pocket!"

I heard about the stuff that had felled from the surface. But, because of the dark, I almost didn't see that stuff. When I saw the surface in-focus state, suddenly, the small bag appeared before me and hit my face. Just like a handphone fell in my face.

"Ouch!" I hissed. "It hurts!"

I tried to take a look at the small bag. I opened up and found a map. A lighter was in there.

When I saw the map, this building was more like a high-rise tower. Not only that, I found something information about each floor. I also tried to look at my place or any of the information in this place.

However, I heard something from behind me. With caution, I looked behind. When I saw it, I didn't see anything.

(Well, maybe I felt distressed or anxious in this situation!) I was relieved for a moment.

When I looked in front, I saw a grotesque creature before me. He had an ugly-old face. His ears long behind like a rabbit. He had a bald head. He had a devilish-mischievous smile at me.

Seeing that creature made me scream scary loudly,

"Argghhhh!!!! What the fuck is that?!!"

Subconsciously, I fell. But from my back, I sensed something. I looked behind with my lighter and many of those same creatures stood behind me. I screamed again,

"Arghhh!-"I felt something warm on my belly-"Eh???"

I looked at my belly. Because of the dark, I touched it. When I touched it, I felt and slightly saw a dark-maroon red fluid. Instinctively, I only knew something...

(My life in a dangerous situation!) I got goosebumps horrifically.

I screamed in horror loudly. I got stabbed by one of these creatures. With all of my strength, I rose, picked up my stuff, and ran away from those creatures.

On the surface, Nostradamus started to speak again,

"Incidentally, I almost forgot about something to say!" with a happy tone. "At the lowest floor, there's a pack of goblins waiting for you. So, beware of that!"

I ran away. Ran from the pack of goblins who hunger at me. Only one thought came to my mind,

(I must... hide!) While ran as much as I can.

***

Finally, I was able to escaped from the pack of goblins. Right now, I'm hiding in one of the big rock crevices. With the strength I had left, I tied the wound with my clothes while enduring the pain.

(Bastard! Come on Besper, you can do this! We just need to escape to the next floor!) I hissed in pain.

After patching up the wound I had, I started looking around while checking the map. When I saw the map, the exit door wasn't too far from the location.

(Okay, let us survive to beat up that bastard!) I started spirit.

I, cautiously, began to survey the surroundings. Once it felt safe, I headed to the exit door by running.

After a few meters I'd ran, I was already in front of the exit door. When I want to open it, the door is difficult to open. Even with forced, it still doesn't move.

(Shit! I've to go through this floor as soon as possible!) While pushing the door.

While I was pushing the door, an arrow pierce my shoulder. I want to take it out that arrow. But at the same time, I felt dizzy. Not only that, but my head also started to feel vertiginous. My eyes spin uncontrollably. In the end, I fell to the ground slowly.

In front of me, the pack of goblins started to stare at me. After a few moments, those had devilish-mischievous smiles at me and started to attack me. Attacking with brutality.

They thrust me with a blade, ripping out of my bones, ate my flesh and internal organs rudely. They treated me to nothing more than their meal. On the other hand, I can only screamed in horror and pain in agony.

(In the end, I died like a corpse that was eaten by a hyena....) I sighed in agonized.

My blood ran through the ground where I lay.

(I want to punch this hyena with one of my hands...) While trying to mobilize my hands.

Luckily, my right hand still functioned. With all of my strength left, I tried to punch this goblin who ate my intestines.

"Take this, you filthy hyena!" While punching goblin face.

Finally, I punched his face. The goblin I'd punched, suddenly began staring at me. He became angry and started to bring the hammer wood.

In from of me, he started to bring up the hammer. Before he hit me, I spit out my sputum to him while saying,

"Eat my shit, you filthy hyena!" while started to increase my tone. "Nostradamus, thou'rt an asshole!"

*Crush!!!*

At that moment, my head had been crushed by hammer wood that the goblin used.

On the surface, Nostradamus said gently tone,

"In the end!" while started to sigh. "Thou'rt died elegantly. Died with an honor!" Started crying.

He quietly for a moment. Now, he began to speak,

"Now!" with a happy tone. "Rise from the ash like a phoenix! Rise for thy avenge! Rise, thou'rt fallen ******* and avenger!"
