Chapter 1
"Eek! I-I don't wanna die in here..!" A man cried out, crawling on the ground. He was attempting to protect his dear life."Hehehe!" A playful chuckle was heard behind him. It has a rather high pitch voice and you could immediately tell that the intention of voice was up to no good.
A white straight line of downward vertical motion was seen.
"Argghaaa!" The man cried out before lying there motionless. Immediately, a pool of dark red blood was seen. The pupils of his eyes were white. They stopped moving. He was dead.That was the image that I and several people witnessed. A scene of murder. We were in a cave that was also known as a 'dungeon'. This was a rather weird situation for us as none of us could remember exactly how we ended up in here. It seems as if we have been 'teleported' like those anime that I have watched.
"O-Oi... what are those?! Where am I exactly?! Why am I here? What is this?! Bring me back!" The words of the man were exactly what we were thinking of.
There are about 20 people here. Clueless, frightened, some were seen rather calm. All in this dark and eerie cave, unsure of what to do. Everyone's outfit somewhat represents of a villager from the old age of a far away country. The males were wearing a white shirt with a rugged brown pants while the females were wearing a white plain dress.
"What a drag... I can't believe y'all are panicking because of that." A white hair teenager stood in front of us. "This is nothing but just a game.." He charges in front, placing his right hand by his hip as if there's a weapon there.
"Hehehe!" The creature that just killed the man looked nothing but a 'goblin'. It reacted and prepares to strike him.
It all happened in a flash. Instantly, the goblin's head pop off before rolling onto the ground. His body collapsed.
"See? This is easy.."My eyes reacted in surprised after looking at him. A katana? How did he get-
"W-whoa! A weapon! Cool!"
I reacted. I turned my body, looking from left to right, noticing that almost everyone has a weapon held on their hand. W-what is this?! How come I do not have a weapon?"H-Hey.. are you alright?" A girl with black long hair was tapping on my shoulder. "You looked lost. Don't panic."
Of course I would look lost! Literally, I have no idea what's happening and you expect me to remain calm and not panic?!
"Oh hello.. yeah, kinda." I spoke while brushing away my emotions. I was perfectly calm. I noticed that she has a katana by her hip. So I asked..
"How did you get that?"
"Well, if you swipe your hand in this motion.. you will open up an interface."
"Wait.. is this like a game?"
"Yeah, kinda..."
"Oh sweet! I love playing games. Let's see what I got!"I did as she instructed. As I swiped my hand to the left, a translucent interface appeared in a smooth animation manner. The interface was shaped like a rectangle, similar to those typical RPG games UI.
"A bow?" I tapped onto the bow icon. Then, a bow appeared in front of me before dropping onto my hand. The bow was made out of a wood. Despite the basic material, I could tell that this bow was sturdy.
"Oh, you got some arrows too." She pointed behind me.
I turned slightly and noticed the arrows that were already equipped on my back. Wait, how many arrows do I have?A number popped out by the bottom right side within my sight. "15?" Is this the number of arrows that I have? Well, time to find out..
I raised my bow to my eye level. Then, I placed an arrow by it, preparing to fire it. I aimed it to a wall. Somehow, this movements were rather easy to demonstrate. Then, I released. The arrow was shot off at an extreme speed, piercing onto the wall. 14.. the number has decreased. My theory was right. This is the indication of the number of arrows that I have.
