Chapter 2 - Im... Special?

THUD! 

There was a loud noise as Gi Wan sat on the floor of the hall, which was covered with the blue-green blood from the goblin. He took some time to think about what the hell was going on before finally murmuring to himself.

"Status" he said, cheeks turning red due to embarrassment from saying that word out loud so unnaturally. Soon enough, a blue screen appeared before him, his status screen.

Gi Wan was almost surprised and wondered to himself, "Wow, is it normal to have such high stats?"

He knew the status was accurate, but he still wanted to question it. Ever since he was 11, he never neglected his body, and exercised everyday, so he obviously had better stats.

He pondered on how to use this menu for a bit, asking himself questions, "Do I click these skills to view more information? Well, that's not it…. Do I have to think about it? Oh! So that's how it works."

Blue boxes appeared in front of him, filled with information about his skills.

'...'

His face was flushed in red after reading the descriptions, and he quickly closed the screens. He slowly looked down only to find his broken tablet. He sighed and looked back up at the blue portal in front him.

"I mean, it's obviously a dungeon, or something like that. Maybe this is a dream?"

He shook his head after recalling the killing intent he felt from the goblin a few moments ago, and the feeling he got after killing it. A message suddenly popped up as he was looking at the portal.

「You will be teleported into the portal to start your trial.

Player confirmed to be an apostle.

Difficulty of the dungeon will rise.

The authority needed to become the specific apostle is too high!

Difficulty will rise even further.

Difficulty is set to IMPOSSIBLE mode.

We wish you good luck on your quest ^^」

"Wait, what?!"

He suddenly felt really sick, as if he was traveling in a car moving at 250 kmph right after eating, and shut his eyes tightly and waited for it to end. He grumbled and gurgled, and finally vomited due to his motion sickness.

Once he felt comfortable enough to open his eyes, he found himself in an enormous underground structure. A few goblins could be seen in the distance. He stood up and noticed that the sword from earlier was with him and felt relieved as he didn't have to fight with his bare hands.

He sighed in relief, "I guess I have to quickly kill a few goblins-"

「The difficulty is set to IMPOSSIBLE.

Drop rates will be decreased by 99%.

Strength of the enemies will be increased by 100%.

All your current equipment will be cursed as soon as you equip them.

The item 'Old Sword' has been inflicted with the curse 'Bluntness'.

Old sword's classification changed from 'sword' to 'blunt weapon'」

"Fu-"

「All the spawned monsters of the dungeon will know your location.

All the spawned monsters are rushing towards you!!」

The goblins at the distance suddenly turned and glared at Gi Wan, then started running towards him. He could also hear many footsteps from all over the underground structure. He closed his eyes for a moment with a smirk on his face and laughed.

"I guess I'm going to have a pretty special death…. Shit, I'm seriously fucked!"
