*Initiating…*
I was standing in darkness, on darkness. I could feel nothing. Not cold or hot. It was like falling, yet there were pressure under me.
"Did I die??"
Weak blue light came from nowhere and everywhere.
A huge wheel appeared directly in front of me. I was only barely able to see the curve on each side. But not able to see the top as it was so large it faded into the dark.
There where small triangular sections on it, reaching from the edge, becoming smaller as it went to the center of the wheel. Almost like a roulette…
*Access to become stronger… Spin the wheel*
What's going on? Spin the wheel? Become stronger?
*Awaiting*
I didn't know what was going on. But it told me to spin it?
*No spin detected. Initiating auto spin in 10*
If I'm already dead, does it even matter?
*9*
*8*
I went closer. There were a small arrow on the edge of it, pointing inwards on the wheel.
*7*
I might as well. One last gamble before I'm gone.
*6*
I grabbed the wheel and pushed all I could, it was heavy, but taking 3 steps with it before letting go, it started to spin around.
While it turned, I noticed there where many sections on it in different color groups. All with many small sections inside.
Tik, tik, tik, tik, tik…
It slowed and eventually stopped. The section that stopped above the arrow shone in a bright blue light.
*Obtained Unique Growth Skill: Looter*
The shining blue light from the section flowed into me.

What the hell? I just spun it… Title? The first? The first what? Whatever. Let's play your game.
I spun it a second time. And when the wheel finally stopped, a new section was shining.
*Obtained Unique Mythical Skill: Dungeon Creation*
The light flowed into me a second time.

*Open status to depart*
What? Open what?
*Open status to depart*
There is NOTHING HERE! Even the wheel was gone. Completely empty!
*Open status to depart*
I was getting annoyed. "What STATUS?!"

*Session will close in 3. 2. 1*
I was back, falling in slow-motion as time started to speed up. I felt strange. Light and full of power. I glanced around, the scene hadn't changed, but I had. I saw everything slightly different.
I pushed off the ground with my hands, rolling backwards, instantly hitting the bloody nose guy in the face as hard as I could.
Being unprepared, his neck snapped.
The guy with his hands between Chioma's legs, jumped away in surprise, leaving her to roll away.
I ran directly to the guy who had beaten Rolf with an iron pipe. He swung it at me, I dodged, easily getting behind him. Grabbing his arm and forcing him to the ground.
Rolf then stood up and took the iron and slammed it down on the guy multiple times.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?"
The initial shock that had paralyzed the leader had dissipated and he was running towards me. Rolf quickly threw the iron pipe to me.
"I'm going to kill you slow…"
He was dead. The iron pipe buried into his skull.
*You have leveled up*
Chioma had pulled her pants back on.
Upon realizing he was alone, the guy who had molested her, had jumped over the edge of the rooftop, rather than facing her wrath.
The skull tattoo guy was nowhere to be seen.
We all walked over to Magnus. He didn't move at all.
Chioma sat down beside him and observed him, he had been stabbed. She then put two fingers on the side of his neck.
Rolf was supporting his left arm with his right, with a face showing he was mentality suppressing the pain.
"How is he?" I asked Chioma after a while.
"He's alive, but the pulse is very slow. I don't know if he will survive."
"Fuck this shit!" Rolf was pacing back and forth, kicking things as he went.
"First everything goes to shit, then friggin fairytale Goblin creatures appear from an alien portal, killing everyone! Then we get jumped by a gang of fuckers! And now my damn arm is broken and my friend might die any second!"
He sat down, clutching his arm. "We are fucked..."
I had never experienced my uncle like this. Or well, only through a headset when someone messed up his play.
But something inside me, told me that things might not be that bad.
The experience with the wheel. How I suddenly were able to beat up those guys.
Breaking that guys neck was too easy.
The power and accuracy when I threw that iron pipe. Making it stuck in the leaders skull...
"There might still be a way. But it's only a hunch."
They both looked at me. Trying to grasp the thread of hope.
"Something changed when I fell down on that portal. I went somewhere... It's hard to explain exactly. But it made me stronger!"
"What are you trying to say? I only saw it break under you. Then you rolled over and helped me."
Chioma rose up from Magnus and put her hand on my shoulder.
"It was adrenaline. I know how it can make you stronger and less susceptible to pain."
I took a step back and her hand dropped.
"No. I'm certain something happened." I looked straight into her eyes.
I turned to look at Rolf. "If you'll trust me in this. I think I have a way to save Magnus. Save all of us. But it's risky."
