Zeke wanted to check the rank of the Black sword so he quickly opened its description ;

Decription : A cursed sword that drains tge power of enemies after their defeat and feeds it to its wielder .

Rank : C

Ability : The blade can grasp your affinity and deals 25 % more damage to the enemy.

Zeke was stunned to see the sword itself .had a unique ability , he couldnt hold his excitement back .

Zeke thought that now he had tested his abilities he should return to the village , as he was returning he remembered tgat his sword can absorb the power of the ennemies , although the 3 wolves were lifeless in front of him , he thought the description didn't mention alive or dead.

Zeke with the sword in hus hand reached the body of the wolf which was close and thrusted it inside the lifeles body , at that moment something dark from the sword engulfed its body and Zeke heard a familiar voice ;

[ Ding ! ]

[ 1 + point in presence ]

A smike made way on Zeke' s face , he said " Its unbelievable '' , with something like thus I could become more stronger than others , Zeke quickly made his way to the other two bodies but to his surprise he didn't recieve any other boon .

Zeke thought maybe not every body will , give me free points , with that he dismissed his sword and turned away it was time to return to the village.

But before that Zeke wanted to take the fur of these wolves , he thought that it would get him something if he sold these in the village.

Zeke slowly walked through the woods there was no danger lurking in this area , so he took his sweet time enjoying the greenery and beauty of the forest.

Zeke was still amazed by how complex this game was everything , even the NPC looks like they are real people , about NPC Zeke remebered that Elderly man said ' The Divine ones arrives every decade or two , and they help them deal with problems or become their problem ' .

Zeke was clearly wondering what was the old man saying , he was very curious the PANDORA was launched today so how the hell were people they claim have come here it isn't so simple and i will learn the truth , for now lets focus on myself.

Zeke strolled in the forest for a while and then saw the village gate appear from distance , but as he came closer he saw at the entrance there were 7 people standing discussing something , Zeke recognized them , they were players and in front of them a Girl was standing saying something to them , Zeke was quite far so he didn't knew what she was saying , Zeke thought it would be a waste of time so he slowly approached the village.

The girl that was standing in front said " Make sure to stay close , and don't act on your own unless I say say , we will venture into the woods , so we can find some monsters , remember , if any of you encounter any do not engage in battle call me we will deal the damage together , but no matter what happens I will be the one to kill , do you understand " , she said in a cold and stern voice. At that time a boy among them said " We are still short on , one person if we wanna move in formation there must be 8 people , but right now we are only seven ".

The girl's face twitched slightly , she was bitting her nail , like she was in a hurry ' I couldn't waste a moment , i will make my foundation in this game , for that I will do anything ' , the girl thought in her head.

At that moment she spotted Zeke who was moving towards entrance and said " Hey ! You , get in the formation with them , they will explain you on the way , just follow my orders and don't worry when I'm out I will send you the money for your work " , she said coldly and arrogantly .

Zeke at that moment was thinking ' What the hell is she saying , Zeke may look weak and timid by seeing but it doesn't mean he will let anyone talk to him like that ' .

Zeke in a stern voice said " I'm not interested and don't you know how to give someone respect ".

The girl who was already moving toward woods flinched and looked back , said in a cold voice " What did you say , I offered you to do the work like they will do and , I'll give you money when we get back and you are refusing ".

She said angrily " Do you know who I am , I am the daughter of the Chairman of SLD Group , Rosee Clarke .

Zeke after hearing her said " I don't give a damn about you and your father , why shoukd I care , I'm not you lapdog who will listen to your orders ".

Rosee's face was flushed with anger " You will pay for denying me , she ordered the players that were standing around to attack and without a hesitation they did , Zeke was surprised but didn't panic he simply said " Thunderstrike " , seven spears of light materialized and with the geature of his hand it launched directly they were very close and the speed at which Zeke launched the attack was very fast , they couldn't dodge , the attack hit accurately and when the dust cleared , Zeke saw seven bodies scattered on the ground , he then lift his gaze and looked at Rosee , she was panicked, fear spread across her face .

Rose blurted out " Howw.... do you... have ,, how are you stronger than me , I should have been the one to have such power , tell..me howw.. , howw ... she cast a spell at Zeke , he simply dodged it ,and was slowly walking toward her , Rosee in panick said " Stay back ,, Don't come near me " , she launched another spell and fell on the ground , Zeke easily evaded it and stood tall in front of her .

After a moment Zeke said " Why you rich people can't seem to digest something if someone lower than your status climbs above you , from your attacks it looks like you are a mage but I don't care , just because that stupid pride of your got hurt you think you can throw a tantarum , I think i know what got you so angry " , Zeke smiled and said " No one has ever rejected you am I wrong , Rosee flinched and looked up and said " You won't get away with this I'll make sure of it , I'll find you and you would pay dearly for it , I swear ".

Zeke scoffed while raising his sword and said " Try all you want , I don't give a damn about you , or anyone else " .

Before she could understand what happened Zeke beheaded her with a single strike , the same thing happened again the sword power engulfed her dead body but no boon for Zeke .

The bodies of other players had already vanished so he couldn't try it on them , with a sigh Zeke turned around and enter the village.

Outside in the real world a girl screamed while rising from the pod she hurriedly checked if she was alive , with a sigh of relief she angrily said " I'll make sure you know your place " , with that she stormed out from her room straight to the hall there a man in a fine suit was sitting , drinking coffe , he saw the girl approaching and with a smile said " Ah ! My daughter you came back already I think you said you will play until the time limit , did something happen ".

Rosee,sorrowful blurted out " Father , i want you to make life a person miserable , can you do that " .

Clarke the chairman of SLD Group was listening to her daughters manner of speech and said " Did someone did something to you " .

Yes , Rose replied instantly , adding do you know he said that I'm arrogant and have no manners , after that he .. he killed me by severing my head saying ' he does not give a damn about you when I clearly told him who I was , I was so scared she started crying .

Clarke who couldn't contained his anger, calmly said " Don't worry my daughter I'll make sure he knows that he shouldn't have messed with you " ., with that she calmed down and her father asked her to go to her room and rest.

After Rosee vanished from her father's sight he called the person who was standing near and said " you heard what she said , I don't care how but bring that person to me who made my daughter feel such a horrible experience ". The man bowed and said " As you wish " , with that he rurned around and left the hall .

Clarke left alone said " I'll make sure to inflict the pain worse than what my daughter felt ".

Back in the Game Zeke was strolling through the village seeing that many player were still in the village , some chatting with each other , some talking with NPCs.

Zeke slowly passed through them , Zeke wanted to buy a mask so that if he were to face players again no one would recognize and his identity would be hidden.

Zeke passed through many stalls but there were none who caught Zeke's eye , feeling disappointed , he changed his route and walked in the other direcfion hoping to find what he was looking for .

Although Zeke was hoping that he could get a quest in this village , but that wasn't his priority at the moment , he was hoping of selling the fur or skin or whatever that were here so that he could earn some money here in the game , but that was just one thing , Zeke was pretty impressed by his abilities but he didn't wanted anyone to know , what kind of power he has he was hoping tgat somewhere in this village he gets his hands on a skill or any other ability thats completely unrelated to his class , he could fool the others in thinking what he has hidden under his sleeve.

Right now he wanted to find a mask so that he could cover his face , he didn't want anyone to know how he looks like , with that in mind Zeke ventured more into the village.
