Chapter 6: Level Up Horror
SLAM!
The next shelf went down resounding heavily as it crashed to the ground.
'Will this be enough?'
Eri glared at the five shelves head placed in the way of the door and compared it at the number of Mutants and their mighty force to shatter the glass windows and doors.
The fact told him he was going to die at this rate.
"What do I do now?" Eri searched everywhere with his eyes. He was just human going up against an army of Mutant what was there to do. He was surely going to get ripped apart.
Eri quickly rushed across the store peeping through every glass window he found available in search of an exit, nothing didn't lead to a Mutant or eight banging hard to the wall with mighty force.
At this rate the wall would come undone and they would tear him apart.
After realizing this Eri came back to settle in the shopping sector picking his bag.
He sat by the counter, particularly on the floor with a frustrated face that almost looked like crying.
'Fuck why am I the only one to face this? I simply can't outrun this.'
"You bastard!"
TAP! TAP! TAP!
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Eri screamed at the next sight he saw. The horror doll was back racing towards him with the two knives in his hands to stab Eri.
For the first three seconds Eri forced himself to think of it as a mirage butas it tossed a knife into his shoulder pinning him to the counter, Eri screamed again.
"Damn! Arrrggfhhh!" Eri grabbed the blade piercing down to his bones unable to pull it out. He shifted his gaze back to the doll and it was gone.
'How did that bastard revive himself.'
Eri searched for a trace of the doll but found none. It was probably hiding. 'Man I hate this part of horror movies..... i can't fight back, I am fucking tired of this..... the world I know is fucking gone, I am the last human still alive, am I even alive? I love, hate and have a sister, I am the last sane living being.... if everyone is dead why should I be afraid of it?'
With that Eri left the Knife's handle in his shoulder taking his time to calm his breathing.
"Aren't you happy Luggard Eri, I helped in returning a knife! Now you can rest assured at the horror of..."
"Shut the fuck up you baby doll, I ain't worried about your shit!" Eri cuts in with a snarl a sly smirk emerging on his lips.
"Planning to sound brave are we?"
As Eri blinked again he witnessed the strange appearance of the horror doll an inch from his face with a hideous smirking his face.
It seemed to be searching for any form of hesitation or slight fright in Eri but there was none, the feeling that was actually there was.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Eri tore in laughter Jolting the hideous grain of laughter from the Dolls face. "I fucking hate it! I hate it! I am dying so young but..... My country and my people have thought me.... I won't die useless."
Eri grunted as he forced himself to his feet with the knife in his shoulder. He grabbed it with one hand and uprooted from his shoulder. "ARRRRRRRRRCCCCCHHHHHHKKKKKK!!!" It hurt like hell his blood pouring out of the opening and instantly draining him of his strength.
"So you finally accept?" The horror doll found a grin on his face.
"Yes," after that short thought Eri finally understood the Horror System and the Horror doll. "Give me my power you bastard!"
All of a sudden the horror doll dissolved to a black slime like liquid crawling onto Eri's leg and up his legs till it reached his eyes.
The slime entered into his eyes magically and it felt painful making Eri trash around until it finally went through and he was back to normal.
'I better be right.'
Eri lowered his legs in a crouch grabbing the second knife ofthe horror doll. He then positioned his stance in a sprint at the barricaded door before racing towards it.
Eri store strengthened his legs and as he came close enough he stood on one foot and swung the other at the door and to his surprise and prediction.
BOOOOOM!
The single strength of his leg destroyed the barricade and door flinging all the mutants at the door away with a mighty force. The broken shardsfkew into the air some sticking into his long hair while others made some tiny cuts on his skin.
Eri grabbed the Knife's handles ready for the overwhelming numbers as the started to pour in soon after.
The first mutant Eri encountered had the body of a human but his upper body from his chest was totally mosquito like.
He swung to grab Eri with his mosquito arms but was jolted I have Eri plunge the tip of his blade deep.into his eye socket sending his green blood flying everywhere.
The next mutant tried the same thing but faster since it was deformed like a creature Eri knee nothing about.
Quick and precise Eri forced a mighty kick into his skull flinging him into the counter destroying it totally.
So this was the strength of a vampire? Even his speed was unusual.
It seemed like everyone else moved at a slower rate and he was the only one at a normal pace.
Soon enough after a few moment of killing Eri had gotten a bit more used of his olpowers killing the countless mutants with ease.
[Leveled up]
[Leveled up]
[Leveled up]
Eri watched the notifications rise one after the other. The ground he stood was coated by Mutant bodies and bodies.
To believe this were just the mutants at the front. The ones round back looked my mischievous.
"Damn!" Eri growled his hands already having a sense of heaviness and his shoulders especially the one he got stabbed it became so stiff that it hurt to move them.
-
[Congrats the mutants have retreated]
[You have leveled up a lot do you want to see your progress?]
[You have eight minutes to leave the store]
Eri exhaled in exasperation. "Whoever is pulling the strings need to be killed this instance."
Eri rested on what remained of the counter marvelled by his strength and speed, 'I feel like the strongest human I can literally lift cars and houses, maybe.'
Eri finally got up from the counter taking final looks at the masses of bodies in the store. Now that the doors were opened he knew this place actually stinked like the dead. This made Eri question if this was phobia or a psychological problem he had, why else did he refuse to leave. Any human would have but he stayed with the dead and that didn't bother him.
Eri bowed his head and gladly said, "farewell store of the dead, I will make sure to avenge you all, I promise."
With that Eri turned around amyo go even though something drawed him back to stay.
He final crossed out and into the open of day. "Man it's been a while."
