Chapter 3: Chapter 2

Chapter 2: AWAKENING

I relaxed my breathing and started to analyze the situation I got into.

"Monster, I need to kill monsters. But if I fight a large monster such as that dinosaur, I'm sure I will die within 3 seconds and became a T-rex food."

Then...

"Weapons, I must find a weapon. I can't kill those creatures barehandedly. After I find a weapon I'll scout for a weak monster that I can kill..."

In an unknown and large jungle like this, could I even find a metallic weapon... Wait! Is there even an iron here!?

'Wood. It's the only alternative that I can think of.'

I looked around to find a stake. Luckily I easily found it. Medium-thick, around 5 feet in length and weighing only 3 kilograms, and has a slightly sharp tip. The stake was lying on the side of this large tree.

"This wooden stake has a large reach and it has durability. The tip is enough to stab a flesh." 

Now... MIKAEL STOP YOUR KNEES FROM SHAKING!!!

I slapped my knees and legs. I knew they were weak and wobbly but I have to get over this. 

"This is not the right time to be afraid. I need to do this to meet my family again."

That's right, my family is waiting for me. Mom, Dad, and Klein are waiting.

"I cannot die here."

.....

....

...

..

.

Alien, experiment, gods, or any supernatural phenomenon. I just couldn't find the reason why these things were happening to me right now and I didn't have time to think because... Currently, two goblins were running after me.

Yup, goblins.

"Looks like T-rex is not the only creature here, there are goblins too!"

I hid behind a tree, stretching my neck to peek behind, making sure they aren't following me. 

*inhale*

*exhale*

"Okay, Michael you can do this."

I aggressively run in their direction. I'll surprise them and head for an ambush.

One of the goblins walked vigilantly at the opposite side of the tree. I readied my spear and abruptly turned around.

'It's now or never!'

*stab!*

I felt the wooden stake piercing the goblin's stomach, however, I didn't have the time to think about that. I stepped back and pulled the wooden spear, blood gushed out but I didn't have time to care due to my darkening vision... The other goblin tried to attack me but I evaded it.

The goblin that I stabbed fell while holding its belly, it tried to scream but immediately fell down, blood spread out of its body.

Looking at the horrendous sight, I was so shaken and filled with nausea, I almost puked.

But I didn't have the time to comprehend my first kill because the last goblin trusted its spear at my abdomen.

* stab* 

I tried to evade it but I still received a wound in my right stomach.

Gritting my teeth, I stabbed the right eye of the goblin, piercing its brain.

"Crraagghh!"

[ AWAKENING COMPLETE ]

[ MICHAEL S. TIBANO ]

[ LEVEL 2]

[ SKILL ACQUIRED: SHOCK ]

I took the Metal Sword that appeared when I killed the first goblin and escaped. 

I hid beneath a tree and comprehend what happened. I knew that I killed the creatures and I need to be tough. It's not the time to puke. 

"Pant, pant, pant. At last. Now, what kind of digital is this?" 

A screen appeared in my peripheral vision, it has my name, level, and a thing called "shock". 

"What's this shock? "

I touched the holographic screen.

[SKILL: SHOCK

A PALM THAN CAN EMIT 100 mA ]

"mA? Milliamp? Seriously? Based on what I know 100 milliamps is already fatal to a human... Okay let's try it"

I tried to use the Skill but I didn't know how to.

"Is there any directions or tutorial on how to use this skill?... Nope?"

No one answered. Guess I need to figure it out myself... Let's try saying its name.

"Shock!... Nah, nothing happened.  How about I concentrate and..."

I closed my eyes and imagine electricity coming out from my palm.

* pst pst*

"Oh!!"

I see electricity currently sparking on my hands. 

"I have the Skill and weapon to fight, my leveling will be easier."

I drop the wooden stick and gripped the metal sword.

My objectives: find more monsters, kill them, level up, and escape.

.....

....

...

..

.

A man walked inside the forest, his right hand was holding a 9mm handgun. This man was not afraid to fight any monster, his objective was to kill Orcs. Now, he trespassed their cave to kill them.

*Roar!!*

Seeing an unknown creature walking confidently to their home. The first orc warned his teammates.

Three of the 2 feet vicious-looking orcs attacked him, they were hungry and a meal was presenting itself to them. However...

* Bang!*

One of the orc's heads blew to smithereens. The others stopped, looking at the body of their comrade.

"I don't care about you pipsqueaks.  Where's the Orc chief? I want something from him. "

* Bang bang!*

The 3 mighty orcs died, no one could escape. They died within 5 seconds. 

*ROAR!!*

"At last, you're here! Do I really need to kill your underlings for you to come out?"

The Orc chief released its killing intent. It had a large body figure, reaching around 8 feet tall and it had a unique ferocious aura from years of battle experience. It charged like a bulldozer and smashed its big sword but the man easily evaded it.

"I may have lost my Skills and levels but my experience is still intact. You're too weak for me."

He aimed, pulled the trigger, and shoot the Orc Chief.

* Bang!* 

" Crahh!!"

The bullet pierced its head. The Orc had a last look of confusion before he collapsed on the ground. The shot was too fast for the monster to defend. This is the first and the last time that he would experience fighting a gun.

*Bang bang bang!*

3 shots at the head, this is what it took to kill the Orc chief. After that, he easily eliminated the other Orcs.

"Bye-bye Orcs. Let's just say that I got nothing to do and decided to kill all of you to pass time."

[ ITEM ACQUIRED: BOOTS OF SPEED]

He grabbed the green boots and checked their description.

"In this entire Awakening, this is the only place I know where a decent Item drops. Sigh, I should've studied this place when I'm young... well physically I'm still 29."

[LEVEL UP]

"Ah, I level up again, not that it matters. This will be the last time I'll kill inside the Awakening. For now, I'll wait for the next event."

[ KYLE ROCKWELL]

[ LEVEL 6]

"But seriously, I've never thought that I would travel back in the past. Well I'm lucky to get a gun before the Awakening start"

"Now that I've got a chance, I'll never let this world end like before." 

He walked and exit the bloody cave with prideful stature. Because of the things that he experienced, he already knew what would happen to  Earth and he won't let it happen again.

His first priority was to find talented warriors, he couldn't save an entire world on his own. He needed companions.

"Oh I remember, me and Miriam of the Eye are on the same batch, and we are in the same district. District 3. I can use her, although I'm not sure if we are compatible. She's the exact opposite of me. Her morality is on the upper side. Well, I really can't understand those Filipino people and their good morals."

He paused and thought about the Awakening system.

"And this f*cked up system. Why make an announcement if there are only around 40,000 people that can return to Earth? All of the monsters will be extinct before all of us can reach level 10. "

The monsters in the Awakening event wouldn't respawn and there are too many people in this district alone.

500,000 people were summoned to participate in this Awakening event. There are four districts. Which meant there were 125, 000 people per district. But the whole district had an overall size of a 10-kilometer radius.

Even if this district was rich in resources called monsters, each people would need to kill 100-150 to reach level 10.

"To summarize, not everyone can go home. Only a small portion can return to Earth. I know it because I'm one of those who got left behind. But that's okay for me, there is something I need in that Castle, the next event."

Kyle, the Hunter that came from the future continued his steps to find promising Awakeners, this was his first objective to stop the upcoming Ragnarok.
