Chapter 2 - Little Farewell

[Defeat the Skeletons!]

[5/5]

"Huh" Ray looks around left and right.

"Did you just see that?"

Harry nods with astonishment.

"We would have to deal with them anyway, Harry stay back wait for my signal"

Ray quickly rushes towards the five skeletons

as he throws a chair that was lying on the ground onto them.

Ray swung his leg up high and wide and lands it onto one of the skeleton's face. The skeleton's face almost starts cracking as the impact landed on him. The impact made him and the other two to fall far away.

'They are very light'

Ray soon regained his posture and shifts his leg to land a sidekick to the other two.

Just as he expected, the two of them also flew far away. However one of them manages to bite onto Ray's legs.

"Harry get the other two." Ray grabs the head of the skeleton, raises his fist and smashes right into the face of the skeleton.

One of the skeleton jumps to bite Ray from behind, it was at that exact moment Ray turns behind with big eye ball as if he had a third eye. In a blink of an eye he swings his left elbow and hit it straight onto the skeleton's face.

'Was I always this quick?'

Blood was dripping down from his right hand, there were some cuts in his right hand. But Ray walks as if nothing happened and slowly walks towards the last skeleton.

Breaking all the limbs of the skeleton, Ray starts to talk to him.

But to his avail, the skeleton only watches him as if he wants to eat Ray.

'Right Skeletons don't have a tongue to speak'

Ray smashes the head of the skeleton.

[Congratulations you have successfully defeated a group of Skeletons]

[You have gained 30 exp]

[You have leveled up!]

Suddenly Ray started feeling a surge of strength overflowing from his body

[All your stats has increased by +1]

"Harry did you see that?"

Harry was busy swinging the golf in mid air recalling the attack he landed.

"Hey Harry" Rat shouts as he throws one of the skeleton bones to Harry's head.

"I can't see anything at all"

"I see" Ray looks that the blue window even more curiously now.

"But"

"But what?"

"I can see mine" Harry smiles again as if starts were sparkling in the background.

Annoyed, Ray just sighs away.

"So what does your status say"

"Uhhh, something like 20 exp and it is asking 30 more for level something"

'30 more? If that is the case why didn't they ask 20 from me. Could it be from the skeleton back then? I basically took all the credits away, if it isn't then I have no idea how I got Leveled up.'

Ray and Harry were now preparing to leave. Harry lifts up the lying Old Man on the floor and hands him a stick he found from one of the room.

'Luckily Uncle Hak had some food, bag and most importantly the car keys.'

Few minutes later -

Harry comes up to Ray and asks him carrying all the golf club.

"Are we not leaving yet?"

The Old man signals him to shut up with a shuush.

The entire room was cleaned, there were no more stains of blood left.

Ray was sitting next to the lying dead body.

Ray had him wear a black suit. Ray just silently stares at him.

("Ray wait a moment")

("What is it Uncle")

("I appreciate your help but please leave the shelf as it is")

(Ray looked disappointed as he couldn't clean it")

("Ray you know, in the shelf I had saved all the items belonging to your aunt. Wait a second...look at here this was the suit that I wore during my wedding with your aunt. Those memories with Floryun were the happiest moments of my life")

("That's why I can't let you clean it, I'm sorry")

His bed was filled with flowers, mainly roses.

'You always loved to do gardening right, is it also because of Aunt?'

After praying to the dead soul, Ray gets up with a relaxed face.

"I'm done, lets go"

"Where would we go now"

'Originally I wanted to go the some military places to either seek help or equip myself at the very least. But with what happened just now I've changed my mind. Besides, this strange game like phenomena can't be ignored.'

"We are going to Sheryl fort."

************

Sheryl fort -

Wolf like monsters were jumping about 6 meters far from one place to another as they chases humans like as if they were lifestocks.

Helicopters were flying up high in the sky.

Armoured vehicles were filled near the huge building. Hundreds of people were hiding under the building, some were heavily injured, some were lying dead.

One little girl was looking left and right eagerly looking for something. Her eyes were full of tears but she didn't wipe it and searches desperately.

Dead bodies were everywhere, injured people were being taken to the top floor while all the others in good shape were waiting anxiously in the huge hall.

Soon the little girl was hit by a group of people who came rushing carrying injured people on their back.

Are you okay little girl. One old woman lifts her up and wipes her tears.

The old woman looks up at the pitiful crowd who were just simply sitting on the ground with their own self thoughts, some in full despair, some desperately calling others. Nobody cared to help the poor little girl.

"What is your name little girl."

"Jes.." with stutter in her mouth she couldn't complete her sentence.

"Jes, do you mind telling me what happened."

"I can't find my momma and pappa"

'Poor little thing, I hope her parents are alive'

The wolves like monsters were extremely fast and agile. Dogging bullets and some even after getting hit by the bullets were still able to charge like nothing happened.

They were twice as large as wolves, their furs were extremely long and thick almost like a lion's mane. Their eyes looked like Snake's eyes, this probably was the main reason why most people were scared to death.

*Boom*

A powerful shot erupted from a huge shotgun

One of the monster was hit in it's legs.

*Boom*

Another round was shot yet the monster kept running towards him.

In an instant, the man was sliced in pieces with those sharp claws.

Monsters.... Monsters...

Most of the soldiers were starting to get demoralised as they watched a strong tall man getting shredded, the same guy they were cheering a second ago.

Some even started to leave their post and slowly back down.

One man in particular starting to come out with a huge item. A Machine Gun.

Rolls it out and starts to roll out the machine gun.

One monster soon starts to rush. The man didn't wait for a second and starts to roll out the machine gun.

Despite being hit consecutively, the monster kept moving flying from one place to another and covers up the distance.

The man didn't flinch a second and kept shooting.

Finally the monster was brought to a halt.

{Captain Kaiser Mellany of the seventh company}

He then shouts loudly "Get a grip everyone, if you won't protect yourselves who else will."

"Close your eyes and observe. What do you see"

Everyone looked at him with confusion.

"There is nothing but Death!!! So don't close your eyes. The only ones closing their eyes would be these monsters."

A guy was smiling in a corner, he soon gets up and starts shouting.

With his shout all the others started to shout filled with new rage.

After all others started to shout, the man sits down again. 'You owe me one geezer.'

************

The Old man starts to ask "But isn't Sheryl like 500 kilometres away?"

"I have no choice, I have to go save my mother."

"If that is the case, I would only be a burden to you two youngsters. I am already in my 70s, if not for this friend of yours persuading me, I would never have followed you people."

"What are you saying old man let's go with us." Harry starts to say in a subdue tone.

"Then we should atleast take him to somewhere safe, right Harry"

Harry starts to raise up his club high. "In the name of this club, I take oath that I'm going to protect you until you are somewhere safe."

"So where are we heading?" Harry looks at enthusiastically Ray enthusiastically.

"Lets go to where he belongs."

"To the military"

"Ahem, actually I'm not an army, this was a dress of my son."

"Sorry?" Ray got dumbfounded.

'No wonder why he never mentioned about the army through the entire time. Thanks to Harry, I'm always busy baby sitting him.'

"Well anyway, you should change else there would be unnecessary misunderstanding later."

"Take some of Uncle Hak's clothes. I'm sure he wouldn't have minded, ya he really wouldn't have." Ray starts smiling for no reason thinking about Uncle Hak's nature.

It was 12 in mid night, Ray and group was walking around the streets sneakily.

Soon the blue window pops up.

[Congratulations everyone, you have successfully survived the first day of the apocalypse]

[You can now choose a class!]
