Chapter 1 - Ch 1: What the hell is happening?

Nobody's p.o.v

________________

"Fuck! It feels good to be out!" A teenage boy, around 17 years old with short black hair, standing about 5,9 (175 cm) walked along the streets, appearing to be very happy.

This boy's name is Ha Jin-sung, and he just got out of detention. How did he get detention? Well, apparently fucking up some nerds at school ain't allowed, but oh well, you learn something new everyday he suppose.

Ha Jin walked around, he seemed very happy to be back on the streets. Everything was so beautiful after not seeing them for what felt like years.. even though it's only been a couple hours. The blue sky outside of the prison that is school was refreshing to see, but there was something weird about it. Jin could see what seems like a loading screen in the sky. It made him real confused as to why there was a loading on the sky. Rubbing his eyes, he looked back up, but it was gone.

"... Maybe I was just hallucinating..." Deciding not to care much about it, he continued on his way.

Not having much to do, he went to a convenience store to get a drink. Once he arrived, he walked into the store, not expecting much to happen. Buut, unexpectedly, he saw some familiar faces.

"Oh, and what do we have here? Isn't it mr. Midget and fire face" He said before walking up to the people at front.

There were two people who were going to walk out, but stopped as they heard the voice. The first one seemed to be a little smaller than the other, he had long black hair that was tied into a ponytail, and the lower parts of his hair seemed to be dyed grey. The taller one was quite muscular, looking very wel built. He had short brown hair and green eyes. His face looked rather calm, but you could sense that he was unhappy with Ha Jin's sudden appearance.

"Oh, you're out..." The smaller one said with a small sigh, seemingly a little disappointed as well.

The small one's name was Naruhi Mikato, and he was essentially the brain of this group right here.

"Hey, what's with that tone? How can you treat your friend in such harsh ways" He made an overly dramatic act, making Naruhi sigh.

"Don't be like that Naru, we should be happy the bastard's out. It is quite difficult doing things without someone to watch our back" The brunette said as he walked up to Jin.

This emerald eye'd guy was Ryuji Kyoto. He's an underground boxer, the muscles of this trio and is pretty smart.

"Aww, I knew you'd miss me Ryuji-oppa!" Jin said happily, walking closer to Ryuji with arms open wide.

Jin tried giving Ryuji a hug, but was simply pushed away by him. Ryuji doesn't like physical touch.

"Don't push it" Ryuji said, an annoyed expression appearing on his face.

"Aww, c'mon!" Jin said angrily.

Rouji's answer to his warm, happy hug made him not want to buy anything anymore, so he just went out with the two of them.

It was quiet, which was a little unexpected for the two walking with Jin, guess jail got him to be more quiet. The quiet atmosphere was really calming as the three walked down the streets, and unfortunately that made Jin speak up.

"... Man, this feels like a date... but with three people" He said, commenting on the atmosphere of their walk.

His comment made the other two sigh in dissatisfaction. They were hoping he'd shut up for a bit longer.

"Of course you had to ruin it..." Naru rolled his eyes.

He expected Jin to say it sooner or later, but he was still disappointed.

"Hey Jin. How did you get out so quickly? Weren't you supposed to be there for a couple more hours?" Ryuji asked. He spoke up with curiosity, wondering how Jin got out so quickly.

"Well, it was rea-" He stopped himself from speaking as a blue hologram-like thingy suddenly appeared in front of him.

A blue screen suddenly popped up in front of the three with those words written. But once they read it, it disappeared shortly instantly. Though as the screen disappeared, a bunch of floating blue cards appeared.

"Hmm? What in the frickalty frackalty fuck is this" Ryuji said as the three of them took on a card to inspect it. Though, as the three of them touched the cards, they blew up in bright light.

Individual holograms appeared in front of them, showing what cards they just picked.

"Is this some kind of prank..?" Naru asked himself as the blue screen disappeared from their view.

The three just looked at each other, confused. They decided to forget about it, thinking it was some stupid prank, but once they began to walk again they came to a halt as a green hand penetrated through the ground. Soon, green creatures dug themselves up from the dirt below, looking straight at the three.

"... What the fuck? Is this a movie shoot or something..? Arrgh, what the shit is going on?!" Naru was filled with confusion and annoyance, but didn't want to question it further.

Though, as Naru came to that decision, Ryuji walked closer to the green humanoid creatures. These small green people seems to be carrying weapons, and they did not look fake.

"Hey, bo-" As Ryuji was speak to one of them, they immediately launched at them.

He couldn't react fast enough and the greenie guy got on top of him. The thing licked it's lips creepily as it brought it's blade up. Though as it was about to stab Ryuji, it was stopped with a quick blow to the face by Jin. The three were really surprised by what just transpired, looking at each other with full on confusion, that thing was about to put Ryuji in a shirt.

The game have now begun.

A sudden blue window popped up again, giving them an order to survive. They didn't have time to go through what they should do in the current situation though as the goblin looking freaks charged at them. The three had no other choice but to fight them now. Jin could tell that they weren't very strong as his punch did a considerable amount damage. So without further ado, he jammed his fist into one of the goblins and it had clear effect. Seeing the effect of his punch, he continued landing multiple blows, though he immediately stopped once he felt it's skull cracking, making it stop moving. He looked with surprise and a slight horrid look. Did he just kill this thing..? Yes, yes he did.

______________

_____________

"W-..W-What the fuck?!" Jin jumped backwards, he just killed the thing.

Though this isn't the first time he's killed something, he's never killed something this humanoid.. and that is making him a bit scared. Though, as his mind ran through things, he came to the thought of these things being something like animals, and that calmed him down.

After he calmed, the blue screen then disappeared once again. Jin turned back to the other two, it seems like they were done with the other goblins. Though unlike him, they didn't seem to bothered of killing these monsters. He found it rather interesting, but decided to put that aside for now.

As he was pondering a bit, there was something that took Jin's interest. It seems like there were some sort of floating orb above the dead corpses of these goblins. Curiosity got the better of him as he moved closer to the orb of the goblin he had killed. He took his finger and touched it, it seems to get absorbed by him as his finger made contact. It felt weird for him as it went into his body.

_____________

You have absorbed [Souls] x1

All core stats increased

_____________

His body felt weird as the screen popped up, it felt like his muscles were tightening up randomly. It was a pretty weird feeling.

"Woah, that felt weird... What the hell was that..?" As he asked no one in particular, another screen popped up after.

_____________

Skill [Soul harvesting]:

Allows user to absorb souls and once a soul is absorbed. Upon absorbing a soul all stats will increase.

_____________

It made him a little confused, but he was dragged out of it as a goblin charged at him, though it seemed a bit.. slower than the other. It seems like he has somehow gotten faster and stronger than before. He moved out of the way and slammed his fist into it, killing it instantly.

"What the fucking horse cock..?" He seemed to get quite surprised by his sudden change in power.

Though, even if this was weird, this was col, and he gave off a terrifying grin as he looked at the other goblins.. seems like this is going to be fun for him.
