《Melee Warrior of Combat》


 Chapter 1 Awakening

    Hi , new story and i wish everyone a happy christmas .


    _________________________________________________________________________________________________


    In the year x something unexpected happened to humanity . All of them got transported to another world , a world full of magic , swords as well as the power named system .


    At first chaos happened since monster attacked the humans , however the chaos created heroes . Heroes with unbelieveable power , capable of healing thousands of humans with the wave of an arm as well as killing thousands of humans with the wave of an arm , rose up with glamour and represented humanity .


    That was the start of a new era , the era called X .


    Countless years passed after the incident of X , humanity explored the the new world . But the new world seemed unlimited . No matter how strong the heroes became , they never would deem themself as strong . After all there are countless monsters who could kill them without even batting with an eye .


    Although humanity seemed to be in a hopeless situation , they met many allies . Races which seemed to come from fairy tails : dwarfs , elfs , elves , giants , demi-human , stone golems , dark elves , dragons , devils , demons and many more .


    However in each society there exists bad and good people , thus each region created their own view on each race . Causing war and havoc rampagin through the land .


    Sovereigns rised , mostly the old heroes .


    For a time the wind of peace drifted through the lands . However does that mean that no one was able to threaten the races ?


    Wrong ! Monsters from the old legends came back : Hydras , Cerberus , Cruel Dragons , Hell Beasts , Zombies , Parasites and many more .


    Now , finally the races unites against the common enemys . A bloody war started which lasted for countless eons .


    In the end they won , does that mean that peace is coming to the people ?


    WRONG ! Soon the alliance found a portal at which the monsters seem to rise from . They gained knowdledge , but for what price ?


    The portal , other known as the gate lead to infinite worlds . Worlds in which humanity turned to cruel zombies , worlds in which elves planted the world tree yggdrasil , worlds in which peace lasted for countless years , worlds in which a tyrann rules .


    So what followed ? One side wants to live in peace , another one wants to snatch as much as they could .


    Naturally , what followed was that this world joined the part of the everlasting war of the worlds .


    "And today our battle field is the 4th world . Also known as Juliette ." explained an old man with white hairs and a white beard in front of a crowd of exciting looking students .


    All of them looked excited , who wouldn''t ? After all today all them will awaken within the system .


    "Hey , do you think im gonna become a mage ?" talked a young student with a smile on his face .


    "Nah , if you become a mage , then im gonna rise up to the level of a protector ." replied an asian youth with a joking tone .


    "Who knows ? Maybe we will win the lottery and sponsor raids ?" laughed the young man .


    Patting the asian youth on the shoulder he said : "Don''t be so negative Mike , i know this day is gonna decide your future but you have to smile ."


    "Yeah , i have to be calm because this day is deciding my entire future ." answered Mike with a sarcastic tone .


    "Since the chance of being an melee or range fighter is about 50/50 , one of us two certainly will be rise up . Besides there are dungeons for melee fighters and they are way stronger in one on one combat ." explained the youth , however it seemed more like he was trying to calm himself down .


    "I know calvin , however we have to face reality . If one of us is melee and the other one is range , i don''t believe we will be able to hold our friendship ." said Mike with a sad voice .


    "Naturally both of us will be range fighters , after all it will be .... " Calvin stopped with voice .


    Nudging Mike Calvin looked how the principle walked around and patted each student on their shoulder .


    Some students cried in disbelief , some other students laughed in joy .


    While this happened a heavy silence waved through the hall . Every students looked how the principle walked around and waited till it was their turn .


    Soon the principle neared Calvin and patted his shoulder , and Mike who sat next him was the next one .


    After the pat of the principle , both Calvin and Mike , joined the system .


    [ Name : Mike ]


    HP: 225 MP: 0


    Body : 1


    Strong Body , No mind : Body is unable to gather MP , however the body is stronger than others


    With disbelief Mike looked at his character panel . Sadness could be seen on his face .


    Looking at the sad face of his friend Calvin wanted to say something encouraging , but he didn''t dared to say it .


    Turning to the slight happy face of Calvin , Mike only said one word : "Congratulation !"


    Standing up Mike didn''t looked back , he walked towards the section where the melee fighters grouped .


    He knew that after this awakening he couldn''t stay friends with Calvin . It may be seem as being a bad friend , however from countless experiences he knew that soon they would be in different groups . While Calvin would stand on the front shooting his projectiles , naturally save and comfortable , he as a melee fighter would be forced to fight in dungeons against monsters .


    Both of them would be grinding experience , but Mike would never be able to rise as fast as Calvin . After all the "front" existed .Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.


    The front is an advancing wall , a giant wall on which range fighters stood to fight against the monsters of the different worlds .


    "Are you melee ?" asked a bulky man in his 40s .


    "Yes , my first skill is increasing my health ." replied Mike .


    A big smile formed on the mans face while slapping Mike on the shoulders he laughed : "Bwuhahahah , finally another warrior and not one of those speedys ."


    It was quite frightening for Mike , even with his 1,8m he looked tiny compared to the 2,5m man .


    Waiting for the others to finish their awakening Mike looked at Calvin .


    Seeing how he flirted with a female student who seemed to be a ranged fighter he sighed . Everything depended on melee or range .


    "Mhm .... you envious ?" without noticing it the bulky man sneaked behind Mike and asked him .


    "Yeah , i am . After all he is ranged , while i am melee ." replied Mike .


    "Why do you envy the range fighters ? I mean they are only standing on the high walls while shooting their projectiles . We get to fight against the enemy , smell the blood of the enemy and kill them with out weapons ." replied the bulky man with a proud tone .


    Looking at this idiot Mike couldn''t help but smile , what advantages do these things have ? Nothing thinkable , they are life threatening , tiring and smelly .


    Wouldn''t it be better to stand on the wall while shooting those "boring" projectiles ? It would way safer and the experience to advance to the next level is gathered way quicker .


    Soon the crowd of students divided in two groups , the melee and the ranged . From now on , they won''t longer be a student . From now on , they will be fighters fighting against monsters .


    After seperating the melee fighters again , two groups resulted . The Speedys and the strongys , that''s the naming by bulky guy .


    Distributing basic weapons to the melee fighter resulted in a shouting of wish-weapons . Some wanted two hand swords and a plate armor , others wanted to have two daggers and a set of light weight armor .


    But the bulky man just gave everyone a basic sword and said : "Good newbies ."


    Then he walked out of the hall .


    Every single one looked at the bulky man in disbelief .


    What is this sh*t ? You give us one basic sword and expect us to be satisfied ? Look at the range fighters , all of them get a whole set of their equipment with a basic armor ! One bow and two quiver full of arrows as well as a basic leather armor for example for a guy who got the the active skill focussed shot .


    Heck he even got a free lessons on how to use his bow !


    But this is reality . The ranged fighters looked at the melee fighters with pity .


    Although they got bad equipment all the melee fighters didn''t went home . All of them tried to find a group for dungeons .


    Except one , and that was Mike . He stepped out of the hall and walked to the next Train station .


    Taking out his phone he downloaded the portal for all fighters , Gaia .


    A kid who looked how Mike opened Gaia said excitingly : "Mom , this guy have Gaia on his phone , is he a fighter ?"


    Smiling a women in her 30s answered : "Yeah he is , probably a new one , do you want to ask him ?"


    Running towards Mike the kid asked : "Big brother , do you fight monsters ? You even have a sword ! That is SOOOOOOO amazing !"


    Smiling Mike answered : "I only became a fighter today , however i will use this sword to kill monsters ."


    With a stunned face the kid looked at Mike . Soon the mother arrived and looked at Mike , seeing his basic sword Kevin could see how a wrinkle appeard on the mothers head for a short moment .


    Taking the kid away she said : "Sorry for disturbing you ."


    "Big Brother fighter , if i am grown up i want to be like you and kill monsters ! Bye bye !" waved the kid while his mother dragged him away .


    Sighing Mike looked how gaia opened and a system panel appeared .


    [Do you want to join the private forum Gaia ?]


    Agreeing he could see how a profile appeared . Changing his forum name to something untrackable he logged in .


    The app on his handy disappeared . After all it was only a signal to the system panel .


    Reading the pages on the forum Mike frowned , there was too much unnecessary information .


    Hey , do anyone know why there is no w-lan on z train station ?


    Can anyone give me the list of top beautys on the sector C ?


    Guys , im in need of some informations on how to repair my phone !


    Need a christmas present for my girlfriend , about 4-10 points .


    Why is my inventory only as big as a bag ? Normally it should be the size of a warehouse !


    Anyone know a good dating site ? Lonely man searches hot women !


    .....


    Clicking through the questions he finally found what he needed . Information for beginners .


    Guide on how to not fail as noob with only a sword :


    Red Potato :


    Since all of us are not babysitted like the range fighters we need some kind of information . So i published this forum site for melee only newbies . Please post your advices down below .


    Smadgod :


    Yeah ! Those babys always need someone to help them , even on wc .


    Trolloooo 9998 :


    I would help them , naturally all of them should be female .


    Red potato :


    Stop spamming unnecessary things , this should be a guide to all newbies . Since it seems like nobody will ever write anything great i will start it : The basic sword you get is better than a kitchen knife , but worse than an axe used to split wood .


    Whitknigt :


    Don''t care about inventory space as a melee , we often have 10x or even 100x bigger inventory space than ranged fighter . So we have a mobile warehouse . Besides don''t worry about food spoiling in it . I think it is something like a preservation space .


    Newnbie 1998 :


    Thanks , one day after awakening i got my inventory . It is really bigger than ranged fighters . I could even fit an entire table inside while my friend only could take about 5 books .


    Nomaama :


    To describe the way of melee in a short sentence is it to get money and buy equipment , go into dungeons to fight and loot the loot . My own advice is it to gather the set of one of the beginner dungeons and farm there for a while to get money . Build your reputition and join a raid . Don''t go into a dungeon with too many range fighter , even if they have destruction power it is safer to raid a dungeon with the amount of 8:2 .


    Red Potato :


    To Nomaama : I believe you are quite right , but wouldn''t it be better to in with more ranged ? I mean there are dungeons like Windy plain which have wide space for ranged fighters .


    Nomaama :


    It may be better for windy plain , but who would go into windy plain to get loot ? The set for melee is pretty much shit , the 10x life may look good , but compared to the other sets it is pretty much sh*t . Besides if there are too many ranged champions the melee ones won''t get any experience .


    Newnbie 1998 :


    I am already an awakened for 2 months , i joined abbout 9 dungeon groups and got 0 set items . How slow will it take for me to get a beginner set ? And how do i get a group ? My friend already went to the front and is 2 levels above me !


    Whitknigt :


    Give up , you can''t compare with the leveling speed of a range . But here is a good site for you to join a dungeon group . It is for everyone , so you may even meet other races . XSJiwhrgvqnwv- site


    Newnbie 1998 :


    Thanks !


    WarriorGod10188:


    Thanks !


    Uhbaaa:


    Thanks !


    ....


    The following post were all post with content of thanking . Just as Mike wanted to click on the page the train arrived .


    Boarding the train and sitting on the next best seat he looked at the forum again . Going on the site suggested by Whitknigt he landed on the site : Dungeon info and group search .


    Searching through all the dungeons Mike eliminated all non-beginner types . After all there were more than 1000 different beginner gradings , so how would he be able to go to a higher dungeon and survive ?


    In the end he eliminated all dungeons except the 1-1 dungeons . (1 for the dungeon level and 1 for dungeon difficulty )


    Comparing the dungeons for loot , monsters etc. he choosed one of the simplest dungeon of all time . An arena pit with a single goblin in it . Though there was no reward Mike chose the dungeon because of warming him up . Or better to say it was to train him .


    After all people die if they die in the dungeon .


    Thus he decided to fight one vs one .


    Setting his goal for the next day Mike browsed through the seemingly endless forum pages of gaia .


    He found theorys on how the system works , how to build the perfect melee/ranged fighter , how to get new skills , how to buy a house as well as how to don''t die in a dungeon .


    Arriving at the last train station Mike stood up and walked out . The dorm in which he lived was in a remote place . Mike liked to describe the dorm as peaceful .


    Standing in front of the dorm Mike opened the door and walked in his room . Brushing his teeth and washing his face he went to bed early .

 Chapter 2 Fight against Goblin

    Monster chapter x)


    _______________________________________________________________________________________________


    Waking up at 5am Mike started the system panel . It may seem a little bit weird that he browsed through the forum at this time , however don''t forget he is a young man without a girlfriend . Thus playing online games all day long was pretty normal .


    Searching for a way to get into a dungeon group he tried to visit the beginner guides . But none of them mentioned how to join a group . Even though he was able to learn basic information it is pretty much unuseable without a group .


    Packing his clothes in a bag he stood up and left his room . Slowly walking down the stairs he tried to not think of his future . After all it is reality that he won''t have a lodging from today on .


    Since the government only payed for the dorm till the awakening .


    In the best case for Mike he would be able to awaken as a range fighter and thus enjoy the bonus .


    Handing the key over Mike left the dorm while walking towards the train station . He needed to visit the dungeon portal as soon as possible , after all he needed fighting experience . And who knows ? Maybe some goddness may give him a house .


    Not only that , Kevin found out that even though the one-pit goblin dungeon didn''t gave any reward , killing the goblin would give him system points . And with these points he would be able to buy everything necessary . Heck , he even could buy slaves with these points . Although they were extremely expensive .


    Boarding the train which lead to the center he tried to plan his breakfast . What should he eat ? And how much would points would the goblin give him ?


    As Kevin arrived at the dungeon portal it was already noon . Suddenly a system message appeared in front of him signaling that he activated the basic functions of the system .


    [ Congratulation , you unlocked inventory ]


    [ Detailed Character information avaible , open the panel ? ]


    Naturally Kevin decided to examine his stats more .


    [ Mike Lv 1 ]


    HP 225/225


    STR: 10 AGI: 9 VIT: 14 END : 5 Body : 10


    Strong body , no mind : +200 HP


    Sighing Kevin looked at his passive , it means no mana for him . That means no mana related skills for him .


    Storing the basic sword which he carried for almost an entire day , in the invenotry Mike moved towards the dungeon portal .


    He felt tiny as he neared the more than 100x300 m portal gate .


    What was fascinating was the fact that the portal only had some kind of membrane in which the transport happened .


    Asking a passerby how it worked Mike got a short answer : "Connect yourself to the system , there is an icon with the symbol of a cave . That is the dungeon manager ."


    Thanking the passerby Mike opened the system and looked at the system panel .


    [ Do you want to enter Goblin Pit 1-1 ? ]


    Accepting it Mike walked into the membrane and disappeared .


    Darkness surrounded him in the split of a second before he could see himself in pit .


    Surrounding him was an one meter circle .


    He could see how the system panel appeared :


    [Protecting circle will disappear in 10s , or you leave the circle ]


    Taking out his basic sword he searched for the goblin , after all it was only a pit with limited space .


    However he couldn''t see the goblin . Even though the space was only the size of an arena .


    Where is it ? Where ?! The circle disappeared and in front him a goblin appeared . The high of a little child with green skin and a hideous face .


    Holding the basic sword with two hands Mike stood in front of the goblin .


    With a surprised look the goblin looked at Mike , in his hand a sharpened bone dagger .


    "GUARGAAAA !" shouted the goblin while charging towards Mike without any ration .


    As soon as the goblin charged towards Mike he as well howled a measly youth warcry as well : "AAAAAAAAAA !"


    Swinging his sword Mike hit the goblin on the head .Blood splurted out and stained his clothes . Since a basic sword is way longer than a sharpened bone Mike was able to hit the goblin without receiving any sort of lethal injury .


    However the charging goblin threw his weapon with all his might and graced Mikes body .


    -3


    A smile appeared on Mikes face , if it is that easy why do everyone say that it is hard to get strong as a melee fighter ?


    Soon a notification sounded through his system panel :


    [ You''ve slayed a goblin , reward is one point ]


    [ You''ve completed Goblin Pit , no reward ]


    As he wanted to go back a circle appeared around Mike as he got teleported towards the gate . Stepping out he could feel his body filled with adrenalin . Naturally he put the bloody goblin body with the hacked head in his inventory .


    After he cleared Goblin Pit twice Mike stopped , he got cocky in his last fight giving the goblin an oppurtunity to jump on his body and stab him .


    Causing about 25 damage .


    Putting the sword in the inventory Mike walked towards a bench and sat down . He earned 3 points by slaying 3 goblins .


    At first he believed he striked rich , after all opening the system shop he could see that 3 points can be traded for 3 decent meals .


    However he soon realised the fact that as an awakened person he needed more amount then a non-awakened person .


    How he realised that ? With experience of course , he bought a meal consisting of 1 burger and some side dishes like a drink and french fries .


    It wasn''t enough to satisfy his hunger . Spending all of his points he sat down and looked at the bustling street of people .


    What would a person think in this situation ? Blame the fault on his parents for perishing under the hands of monster ? Or curse the state for not providing any help ?


    He couldn''t ask any of his classmates to provide any sort of support . Why ? Simple , because they have something to rely on : Parents .


    Why he doesn''t ask to join them in hunting ? Because the parent doesn''t want to have the burden of an unknown person . After all most people aren''t that strong , so how can they protect more than one "baby" ?


    Besides a person won''t die so easily , just clear the 1-1 dungeons . It may only give 1 point , and destroy your clothes into rags after a few days . However you won''t starve and if you die while overstimating yourself , then blame yourself for being too cocky .


    While sitting on the street edge he browsed through gaia for more information . He wanted to open a new discussion page with the title : Newbie in search for a party , however he discarded the idear since he believed that there would already be a page in gaia .


    Reading the pages for a few hours he managed to find important informations , food shouldn''t be bought by the shop . It may be ok in emergency situations like in a raid or at the front , but normally one should buy food in restaurants or the supermarket . It is way cheaper since some people got jobs like farmer or alchemist in their awakening . It was pretty rare though .


    Although it was a rare job , a single farmer could produce food for about 1000 people as new awakened . And with each level up it (it wasn''t aqquired with fighting) they would be able to feed multiple the amount .


    With a relief Mike smiled , at least he would be able to fill his belly if he fought the goblin pit about 5 times a day .


    The next information shocked him , he could group with people all over the 4 world . Since the dungeon portal transported them into the same dungeon (only if they wanted it) , but a fighter only can leave the dungeon through the dungeon portal he walked in .


    It would be a pretty handy method for long relationships .


    Dismissing his thought about a girlfriend Mike finally found what he wanted , an alliance wide grouping tools for dungeons . Just as he wanted to search for a group he cursed inwardly : "How can i forget this ? Didn''t someone posted this site yesterday on some guide ?"


    However it wasn''t his fault , after all he browsed a few hours and humans easily forget things .


    Search a group with 50 people for Waterpalace dungeon 4-87


    Healer for raid with over 500 people , we need every healer we can get ! 2-898


    Farming for the forest set in 1-92 , anyone got a group ?This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.


    Searching through the pages he found something interesting for him , and that is guilds/groups !


    Tea party in search for people :


    Knight Order in Search for members :


    White deer academy for ranged fighters after graduation of basic camp :


    But it was pretty much hard to meet the requirments , he either needed to be a recommended by the people , be strong enough , or pay a fee of points .


    Without getting a loss of spirit Mike searched for smaller groups , after all the giants of giants are at the front while middle are hidden and smaller groups/guilds are pretty much hidden behind all of the stuff .


    Opening all of the lates post he could see that more than 3000 pages are made in one second . Sighing he searched for a suitable party for him , after all new posts often contained new groups or partys .


    It was pretty much useless to fake a posts for traps , after all one of the major subjects in the pre-awakening school was it to avoid those killer by making party contracts which made it impossible to kill party members .


    How it was possible ? It was possible because people formulated the perfect non-killing contract through the times .


    White Boar in search for new members , we already got 20 !


    Hidden Snake in search for members , we will give you damage poison for your weapons !


    Group searches dungeon members !


    Searching through all of the post he tried to find something that appealed him , with no success . After all if the post was appealing who wouldn''t apply to join the group ?


    In the end he selected a plain and simple post , how he selected the post ? No idear , one could call it fate . Suprisingly it wasn''t one of the latest post like he planned , instead it was one which was posted about 2 days ago .


    Group needs Members :


    BunBunnyBun:


    Hi , we are a new group of people who wants to clear dungeons . Mostly 1- dungeons . Apply your application in this forum , don''t be so formal though . After all we may be comrades in arm .


    Crusadordeath:


    Yeaaaaah !


    BurnBreadBurn:


    Hope for good work .


    Some where in a mansion :


    "Hey , when do you think someone will join us ?"


    "I don''t think it will happen that fast , after all our post is simple."


    "Why don''t we add some fire or smileys in it ?"


    " *sigh* Didn''t we want to help Merle in finding some capable comrades ?"


    "Yeah i know but ..... "


    "Ah , i think someone posted an application ."


    "Lets look it up !"


    Posting an application for this group Mike simply wrote :


    FronTank:


    Hi , i would like to join the group . I am a new melee fighter with the equipment of a basic sword .


    He even wrote him being a "baby" with basic equipment . After all it would be worse if they kicked him out after him boasting about his ability .


    The reply was about 10 minutes later . Mike could literally smell the hesitation , since one would be notified if someone posted in their discussion page .


    BunBunnyBun:


    We thank you for your application .....


    Sighing Mike knew that he needed to send more applications then one . After all , only a small part would take a "baby" with the equipment storage of a basic sword .


    Reading further he gasped , holy sh*t ! They were willing to take a dungeon run with him !


    ..... we would like to take a dungeon run with you . Naturally not all of us will be there to test you , only one of us will be there . I think Two Wolf Pit 1-3 sounds okay ?


    Quickly Mike replied :


    Frontank:


    Yes , it is okay for me . When ?


    BunBunnyBun:


    How about in half an hour ? I will send you the chat code .


    Grinning Mike looked at the bustling street , it may be possible that he will only sleep one day on the streets .


    "Hey Marle , we found somebody . It is only a level one though . And a melee ."


    "Huh ? Already ? So how is the melee figher ? How high is he ? Female or male ?"


    "It is mostlikely a male , after all a female would easily find a group . He seemed to be someone desperately in search of a group ."


    "Didn''t you meet him Mary ?"


    "Nah she didn''t Merle , i think she guessed it with her 50/50 chance ."


    "My guessing ain''t 50/50 , it is more like 9/10 !"


    "Then what about the time where you believed Merle''s sister got a boyfriend ? And in truth it was a headache ?"


    " *sigh* , can you both stop to fight ? So why did both of you bother me ?"


    "Naturally because Mary and i decided to test him with the two wolf pit 1-3 and the person who will help him is you ."


    "Why me ?"


    "Because we believe you should be the one to judge him ."


    "Okay , when ?"


    "Mary will send your code with the gaia message system , it should be in 20 minutes ."


    "Okay , thanks Liz and Mary . I will prepare myself . Bye !"


    "Don''t forget to tell me if he is handsome !"


    "*Sigh* , the one who looks the least amount interested in man is asking for the look . I already send the code to Frontank , he will send you an chat invite ."


    "Ok bye."


    Opening the message from BunBunnyBun Mike used the code to send a chat invite to the person who shall test him .


    Soon a voice could be heard : "Are you Frontank ?"


    "Yeah i am . When do you want to go to the dungeon ?" answered Mike , trying to speak normally . However it suprised him that the one who spoke was a female .


    "I am ready , we can enter the dungeon ."


    Entering the Dungeon Portal he chose the two wolf pit 1-3 , darkness surrounded him .


    As he opened his eyes he could see that he was in another pit , though bigger than the goblin pit .


    The protection surrounded him and the familiar 10s protection panel appeared .


    Looking for the one to test him he gulped . Holy sh*t , did he used up all of his luck in this moment ? In front him was blonde beauty , hourglass figure with an alluring chest .


    "Nice to meet you , i am Merle ." said the female in front of him .


    "I am Mike , but i believe we should prepare ourselfs . After all we are in a dungeon ." answered Mike as he took out his basic sword out of his inventory .


    It couldn''t be said that he wasn''t mesmerized by Merle beauty , however surviving is top priority .


    "The protection circle won''t disappear as long as we don''t draw our weapons or fight ." replied Merle .


    Since the milk was already spilled what can Mike do ? He just answered : "Sorry ."


    Taking out her weapon , a bow and an arrow , she prepared to shoot it .


    Two wolfs the size of a table appeared . As soon as they noticed the two intruders each of them pounced towards them .


    Shouting a short cry Mike waved his sword towards the wolf with minimal success . He felt pain as the wolf bit his leg and dragged him towards ground .


    -18


    Still holding his sword he tried to stab the eye of the wolf , however he missed and the tip landed on the nose .


    The wolf howled in pain and chewed on his leg .


    - 27


    Feeling the tooths ripping his leg apart tears streamed out of his eyes and caused his vision to get blurry . With a shout he hacked on the head of the wolf countless times . Blood splurted out as the wolf got cut by the sword .


    Panting Mike felt how sweat covered his entire body .


    [You''ve slayed wolf , reward is 5 points ]


    [You''ve completed two wolf pit , no reward ]


    Killing his wolf he looked at the battle of Merle , since he didn''t heard any shouts of helps he believed that nothing grave happened .


    And indeed nothing grave happened to her , instead she looked at Mike .


    Turning towards the wolf Mike gulped , only a single arrow protruded out from one of his eyes .


    Instakill ?


    An akward silence filled the pit .


    Breaking the silence Mike said : "With your skills it won''t be a problem to join a middle or even top tier guild . You can even go to the front , why do you search for comrades ? And even then , if you post your skills then many would follow ."


    The meaning was pretty clear , why did a beauty like her creates a group ? She could join any existing group or party . Combining that with her skill to instakill a wolf she would be an ace in a small party and a strong fighter in a middle one .


    Why even bother with dungeons 1-1 to 1-9 ? After all these dungeon are in a pit .


    Looking into the eyes of Merle Mike waited for an answer .


    Merle felt quite akward , at first she didn''t expected anything great . Normal equipment etc . , however what she saw suprised her in a bad way . Only a basic sword and pretty much a "baby" with no sword technique whatsoever . Even the clothes were stained with blood before the dungeon even began .


    And now he ask her why ?


    "I don''t have to answer your question , besides i think you know how my answer to the test is ."


    Without even looking how she disappeard from the dungeon Mike stood up and collected the corpses , after all he has nothing and maybe he can eat these corpses if he roast them properly .


    Disappointment could be seen all over his face as he walked out of the dungeon portal and sat down on his familiar street corner .


    Opening the panel to gaia he applied for more partys , however mentioning that he is a "baby" without experiences all of them denied his apllication in a formal way .


    Soon the sky turned dark , without a lodging he lied on the streets , his spare clothes his bed .


    (AN: All of you may be thinking why doesn''t he ask for a lodging in a classmate home , my answer is quite simple : Mike didn''t interacted much with his classmates and in the other earth it is common to went through hardship . As long as you don''t die they won''t help you . Want to sleep on a warm bed ? Work hard for it , have parents providing it or wait till the mood is good enough.)


    "I''m done with the test , he won''t do it ."


    "Mary what happened ? Your voice sounds angry ."


    "I mean yeah , even though he thinks that all women shoud leech from stronger partys he shouldn''t mention that !"


    "What happened ? Tell us the whole story ."


    "Well , he''s an asian looking youth . He is quite the baby , he didn''t even knew that the circle don''t disappear if he don''t draw his weapon . His clothes were already stained with blood and the equipment he got was only a basic sword , even his fighting skills are pathetic ....... "


    "I don''t agree with your reaction ."


    "Yes , yes , Mary i know you are quite the moral apostle but i don''t believe you can cure him . He is quite the arrogant guy , thinks himself as the highest while he looks like a beggar ."


    "Merle , normally i am for you . But i believe this time you overreacted quite harsh ."


    "Liz , why are you against it ? I mean he was pretty much useless against one wolf and his behaviour was questionable ."


    "You know that my brother works for the government right ? He told me that even though many believe that melee fighters are at disadvantage compared to range , they don''t believe HOW MUCH they are at disadvantage . "


    "Yeah yeah , i know melee are quite the poor ones . They need to fight hand to hand without safety and blablabla .... "


    "We all know that , Liz , what do you want to say ?"


    "Then Mary , do you know that the melee fighters only get a basic sword as a weapon ?"


    "I believe Merle and i both know that ."


    "Then do you know that melee fighters don''t get a basic course ? They don''t even get the safe level up to level 2 . So we start with 2 skills while they start with one . Not only that , they need to be supervised by their parents or relatives since the state won''t help them anymore . Both of you may think that "Liz is too dramatic , these are only disadvantage but can be neglected with hard workd" , but do you know that even without parents the state won''t help you ? That these orphants don''t get any supervision from their parents ? Or better to say they can''t ? Even then the state throws them on the streets after awakening and let them fend for themself with their spare clothes . I believe the "Frontank" you met was one of those newly awakened ones , an orphan with no parents and no relatives ."


    It was true that Mike is an orphan , however his relatives were still alive . Though with no contact . They still believe that the parents of Mike are alive .


    "Mhm ... i think Liz spoke the truth , even though the behaviour of Frontank was in no way good , your behaviour wasn''t good too .


    "Why ?"


    "To say it simple , if somebody who is ranged and a beatuy would create a party , do you believe that they don''t use their beauty as lure ? A plain post looks quite suspicious , combining that with your strength to instakill a wolf and the test after he states that he is quite the newbie it looks like a way that you are superior than him . A way on how to stomp on somebodys feeling ."


    "But i don''t want to do that , i mean i know how it is to .... "


    "Yeah , but do you believe that somebody would walk with blood stained blood after their akawen ? I would change my clothes and ask my parents to clean them . He didn''t change them ."


    "Well in the end i think we shouldn''t let him in our party . But i think that helping him a little bit with letting him join our raids is quite the good deed ."


    "Okay , i will send an message through gaia to him ."

 Chapter 3 The old Man

    After reading the message from BunBunnyBun Mike sighed , is this some sort of apology ?


    However he accepted it mentally and added the group post by BunBunnyBun to his favorites and browsed through gaia , what else could he do ?


    He didn''t changed his clothes , after all why should he care about his appearance ? Thus making him look like a beggar on a street .


    However nobody even glanced at him , the buslting mass of people walked by him without even asking why he ended up on the streets .


    "Hey boya , new here ?" a hoarse voice sounded towards Mike .


    Turning towards the source he could see an old man tattered in rags , lying in a box-home .


    "Yeah , i am trying to find a way on how to get stronger ." replied Mike without any sort of arrogance .


    A smile formed on the old mans face , taking out a flask he spoke : "People like us are born to live on the streets , do you really believe you can beat firearms as a melee fighter ? I heard the state already produces equipable laser guns ."


    "We as melee fighters just have to get into range , besides i already fought against a goblin as soon as i awakened . It was quite easy ." answered Mike .


    "Hahahaha , naive !" laughed the old man while drinking something out of his flask , "But there are so many ways how a ranged fighters can get away . Besides their dps is way higher than our and the group fighting ability is quite high too ."


    "There are still dungeons , open fields or the front may be impossible however there are still the dungeons in which the melee warriors shine !" replied Mike .


    "Already filled with melee fighters who are born from the elites . Youth , you have to know it is impossible to get as strong as a ranged fighter . It is true that a melee is always stronger in an one o one against a ranged . But does the state tell you that the ranged just have to kite the melee and kill them with ease ?" sighed the old man while looking at Mike .


    "I know it may be sad for you , but i believe you have some classmates who are ranged fighters . After they are done with the basic course all of them will be level 2 . You can get on this level too , after all the basic course is a whole year . But for what price ? If you want to get stronger then them you have to fight in countless live-die situation and that daily . While they only have to cast some magic and laugh a little bit with girls to get it . Not only that , after the basic course all of them are still in the so called protection status . They will get food , lodging and training for free . Heck they even can go into dungeons earning their own salary by selling loot ." added the old man before drinking out of his flask again .


    He started talking to the youths who ended up on the street twenty years ago . At first it was only concidence since a youth started to talk about his life , however as a former youth who dreamed big he knew what awaited the poor youth . A life full of saddness and unrewarding work .


    "What level are you ?" asked Mike .


    "I''m level 12 , enough for me to buy good wine and good food . Since i have enough from this life i won''t buy prolonging life items from the shop ." laughed the old man .


    "Why ? It may take 1 thousand years or even 2 thousands years but i believe that you can get strong ." replied Mike in a resolute voice .


    "Hahahah , since you are a rush youth i will give you the info you need , go on this gaia site and you will see how to get strong ." smiled the old man while giving the site to Mike .


    After the conversation Mike did the Goblin pit thrice to buy himself a meal in a restaurant , at first the glances of pity bothered him . After all on the streets everyone mind his own business but in a restaurants there are waiters asking what he want . However he soon could ignore the gazes .


    Staying in the restaurant Mike looked at the site given by the old man . With a surprising look it was a locked site , a site only for special users . Something like a hidden organization in our world .


    Melee Fighter assembling : (Normal Infos for all Melee Fighter)


    HP Calculating :


    You die if you have 0 HP , in other words if you still have Hp you won''t die . Somebody is cutting your heads off and you still have HP (rare scenario) , then your Head will automaticall appear on your body again . If your leg is ripped apart it will regenerate as long as you have Hp .


    Worst Enemy :


    Guns , a single gun used by a non-awakened will deal about 100 dmg if hit on arms etc. , thus ranged gun users will destroy you .


    Skills :


    You will get skills on the level 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 and 10 without counting the first skill . After that one will get skills on 100 , 200 , 300 , 400 , ... till 1000 , then the next leap will be 10k , 20k ... till 100k and then the next leap .


    Skill - otherwise :


    Skills are way more important than Levels , do some unique things and you will get a skills . Skills can combine if the requirments are met to produce a symbiotic effect .


    Train beginners :


    Don''t use a weapon , use your bare fist to train your reaction . Fight in the pit every single day , for better reaction and experience to get strong . (There is a high chance to die , please note that a instructor should come with you)


    For Familys :


    Since your son/daughter is born melee , don''t put them in schools , let instructors teach them how to fight .


    .........


    Looking through the Site Mike shocked , that is high class information . There were even training plans for melee fighters . The only thing he could do was the daily pit training since everything else needed high class training tools , however it was deemed one of the lethals and should only be done with a protector .


    Soon the sky darkened and night arrived , moving to his old sleeping place he expected the old man to be there . It wasn''t the case though .


    Just as he wanted to lie down a man in a suit walked towards Mike with a seemingly supressed arrogant look : "Are you the youth who talked to the old man in a box ?"


    "Yeah i am , what do you want ?" answered Mike .


    "Here the last message he wanted to pass on , he died since he didn''t wanted to buy prolonging life pills from the shop for only 10k points ." said the man in a tone which deemed the old man as dumb and passed a paper to Mike . After passing the paper he walked in a fast pace as if Mike would give cancer to him .


    Opening the paper the only thing Mike could read was "Good Luck Youth" .


    He didn''t believed that the old man he talked in the noon died , after all it was possible to read your remaining time in the system . He didn''t believed that one woudn''t be afraid of death .


    Even after some time Mike believed that the old man was some sort of elite who loved it to find good seedlings . But reality is reality and this sort of concidence only happens in storys . I.o.w. the old man died .


    After he went sleeping on his bed , he gave up on joining a group to clear dungeons since the death of the old man depressed him . Thus he tried to follow the only training plan he could do with his resources , the pit training . Mike knew that it is a simple , but very successful training principle . Fight against an enemy till death , don''t fight for glory , neither for anything else , just for surviving .Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.


    After all he has nothing to lose . With no background he can do nothing but end up as a beggar on the street . Even if he is able work to get stronger after time , but how hard should he work compared to range fighter and how long would it take ? Better to pile every hardship in a short time span .


    Storing his basic sword in his inventory he prepared to fight against the goblin bare-handed . Since he barely could fight against a wolf in the two wolf pit 1-3 his first goal was to clear every pit(from 1-9) with his bare hands .


    Stretching his body he prepared for the fight and entered the pit . Without waiting for the circle to disappear he charged out and directly tried to punch the appearing goblin who seemed surprised .


    He could feel the body of the green goblin under his fist , understimating the goblin Mike felt sharp pain as the long nails of the goblin scratches his arms .


    - 9


    Seems like the goblin got summoned without a weapon .


    With a mad howl Mike used both of his hands to grab the neck of the stunned goblin and strangled it with all his might .


    "Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiii !" cried the goblin in despair .


    Such a cry of despair may let the innocent Mike from before hesitate , however he already lived on the street for two days . His clothes were nothing more than smelly rags and he smelled like shit since he couldn''t wash himself .


    *Thump* the body of the goblin dropped on the ground .


    Breathing air Mike looked at the goblin with different eyes . It is quite easy for him to kill a goblin bare handed , however it is mentally draining . How should he do that for every sinlge pit ?


    What he didn''t know is the fact that the pit training on the high class forum was for rich people , how would they do the training more than once a day ? If somebody of them would kill a monster bare handed every single day it would mark the person a savage .


    Repeating the training twice Mike could feel how the pit forged his experience , it was almost like a life-death arena . In his third fight the goblin got spawned with two bone knifes , causing Mike to either charge and feel the pain or wait and endure less pain but still die due to the harassment .


    In the end he charged like a madman and was able to smash the goblin on the ground , killing it with a kick on the head .


    Sighing he spend his hard earned point in a restaurant , some children pointed at him while some younger students couldn''t but complain about his smell . Naturally only in whispers .


    Buying two large portions of spaghetti and meatballs as well as a portion salad with chicken strips he ate in comfort .


    "Who cares about what others says ? I am spending my hard earned food in a restaurant and should enjoy the scenary !" thought Mike and enjoyed his food slowly .


    Suddenly a group of youths appeared about the age of 14 or 15 , in the middle was an arrogant youth holding the hands of an girl whose face looked like a clown with all the make up .


    "Waiter , give me some stew and a coke ." laughed the youth while turning towards his group and said : "Today i am paying , buy as much as you want !"


    The group seemed delighted as they moved towards a table for 8 people .


    Passing the table of Mike the girl with too much make up suddenly talked : "Ugh , a beggar . I bet he is afraid of fighting in the dungeon ."


    "Nah , look at those blood staines . They were all made from fighting in his restaurant ! Hahahahah !" commented the arrogant youth while looking at Mike .


    Since the spaghetti with meatballs was red and the bloodstains on Mike were dried , it looked like tomato juice . (Today was the day where he fought bare handed ).


    Trying to endure the comment Mike ignored them as he slurped the noodles into his mouth .


    However the comment caused the group to surround Mike while picking on him .


    "Hey hey , aren''t you a pussy ? After all these are only monsters , just kill them with an axe or an hammer ." said Person A .


    "Hahaha , maybe he don''t got the guts to do it ." smiled Person B .


    Turning towards the arrogant youth Mike coldly said : "Piss off ."


    A silence filled the group .


    "Who do you dare to piss off ? Huh ? Don''t you believe that ...... " shouted the youth with a red face .


    *SMASH* , a punch into his face interrupted his arrogant blabbering .


    After this sort of comment Mike couldn''t but stand up and punch this shitty youth in his face .


    "Hey , who do you dare to ... !" Person A .


    Without holding anything back Mike rampaged in this group . Kicking between the legs of one person , pulling the hairs of another person Person while smashing his head on the table .


    However the group still moved to fight against him , one punch hit Mike on his face causing his eyes to bleed . Another one used the surrounding cutlery to hurt Mike without any success .


    - 10


    But how could they try to beat up Mike who has probably more than 8x of their health ?


    Punching the girl as well Mike sat down and looked at his now messy meal . All of the noodles were scattered around the table .


    Just as he wanted to leave the place , the arrogant youth shouted with anger : "YOU DARE TO HARM ME HUH ? DIE !"


    Taking out a gun he aimed and shot .


    *BAAM*


    Feeling the projectile piercing his shoulder Mike screamed .


    Just as the youth wanted to shoot another one , a ball of ice smashed against his arms causing it to bend in a bow like shape .


    "AAAAAAAAAAAAHH !" tears streamed out of his bloody face as the arrogant youth turned towards he man who fired the ice ball . "I will tell my father about it , he will punish all of you ... you !"


    A dart sticking out of his hands could be seen as the youth stopped talking and dropped down on the ground .


    "Why does there have to be so many arrogant youths today ?" sighed a voice .


    "That ain''t the problem , " said a middle aged man with short brown hairs and a scar covering his face , " the only problem is that everybody is watching and we have to clean up the mess even though they could stop the fight from the beginning ."


    Looking at the mess the man sighed before speaking into his headset : "Send an medic towards this location , punish all of these youths with twenty day of social work ."


    Walking for a while the man said : "The other one is a victim . Yes , he is tattered in rags and it seems like blood is on his clothes . How about sending him one of those package ? ... Yeah those package . I believe we can send it through gaia . ... Mmh Why ? I don''t know why but it seems like one of the upper personage seems to promoting the melee fighters . ... Hahah , you can''t compare it to the range fighters . If the advantages of the ranged fighters are like the ocean the package is only a drop of water . Okay over now ."


    Walking towards the body of Mike a blue ray of light appeared as the man could see a message plop up :


    [Package: <Basic Needs> successfull sended]


    A while later , Mike felt pain as he tried to wake up . Rubbing his head he mumble : "Am i still alive ?"


    Looking around he could see the that he wasn''t in the restaurant anymore , instead he was on the edge of the street . With a high chance the restaurant threw him out .


    Noticing the system notification he opened it :


    [Basic Package by the state : ]


    [ - Dried Meal 3x ]


    [ - Strong Fabric T-shirt 1x ]


    [ - Strong Fabric Pants 1x ]


    [ - Basic Axe 1x ]


    [ Do you want to get it ? ]


    With a surprised but happy face he accepted he grumbled : "Why didn''t they send me more ?"


    [ Basic Package got transported to your inventory ]


    Licking his lips which tasted like blood he stopped and opened Gaia in search for this package .


    Finding the post by the state he wanted to inquire about his free gift , after all there is a possible to get more stuff for free .


    State Packages for Fighters in need :


    We will give a ranged fighter packages if he is need :


    1. Overall package :


    - 100 Meal Tickets


    - Your Weapon Choice


    - 200 Bandages


    - A Lodging for half a year


    - An hour lessons each week from an experiences fighter


    2. Learn Lessons


    - Dorm if needed


    - Every day fight with your group


    - medical aid for free


    - No need to pay


    3. Battle Package


    - 100 Health Potions


    - 100 Mana Potions


    - Full Armor set (Only basic)


    - A Basic Skill Book(Only Once)


    4. ....


    Grinning over all ears Mike couldn''t imagine that the state would help the fighters so much .


    But as soon as he read the requirment for being range he felt as if a cold water splashed his whole body .


    Why is it so unfair ? Why does the state gives more things to ranged fighters and that for free ?


    Suddenly he could see a package for melee fighters , a single package :


    Basic Package :


    - Dried Meal 3x


    - Cloth Armor (chest + pants)


    - random Weapon


    -> Pay 100 Points after you got this


    Rage filled him , WHY IS IT SO UNFAIR ? I EVEN HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS SH*T !


    Clenching his hands he moved towards the shop and indeed , his account was -100 points .


    Losing all belief in the state he equipped the fabric armor and axe while walking towards the dungeon . He needed to lessen his rage and the best punching bag is a living object named Goblin .


    *SPLASH* , hacking the goblin cause blood splurting out of the wound . Howling a cry of pain the goblin tried to do something , however Mike simply smacked on the goblin with his axe causing its head to turn into meat pulp .


    After collecting the corpse he walked out of the dungeon while looking how the point counter on the shop reached 0 from -1 .


    Three days passed since he bought that shit of a package , he only could afford three meals since he couldn''t buy anything more . His fabric armor was nothing more than rags now , even the axe resembled more an hammer than an axe .


    Looking at his character screen he sighed , he didn''t even level up !


    [ Mike Lv 1 ]


    HP 425/425


    STR: 16 AGI: 10 VIT: 19 Body : 15


    Strong Body : +400 HP


    The only thing that changed was that endurance disappeared from his Numbers , his skill changed to strong body with double the amount of health . However he still couldn''t use Mana .


    After finally paying off the money he owed Mike prepared to test his skills at a 1-2 pit .


    Holding the axe with his right hand and the basic sword with his left hand he selected Orc Pit 1-2 .


    What awaited him was a pig man at the size of 1,6 meters .


    Smashing with his axe Mike tried to hit the head , Successfull . The Head splurted into brain mash and bone mash .


    Grinning Mike collected the Corpse without any hesitation .


    Thus he slaughtered the Orcs in the Orc pit 1-2 for the whole day .

 Chapter 4 One Year Bet

    In a pit a youth could be seen sitting on the corpse of a wolf the size of a table .


    His whole body was drenched in blood , it wasn''t his blood though . Well not all of it .


    Naturally this youth is Mike , two weeks after his awakening he could clear the dungeon two wolf pit with ease .


    Looking through the information on Gaia he tried to find something to measure his HP , it may be dumb to say that he needed to measure his limit till he died but it''s the case .


    Reason ? Quite simple , at first Mike believed that it was quite normal that he could fight against Monsters one vs one . And indeed it was normal . However he could even sustain most of the critical attacks on him . The only dangerous situation happened once , as a wolf shattered Mikes head in his jaw .


    He survived though .


    Standing up Mike walked towards the head of the wolf corpse . Grabbing one of the sharp teeths he ripped it out .


    *KCHA*


    Storing the corpse in his seemingly infinite inventory he evaluated the teeth .


    "Mhm .. not bad , i believe it can withstand a few rounds ." judged Mike and walked outwards .


    In this one week he fought countless live-death situations . Well , not countless and not a great amount compared to real warriors . To describe it a good amount .


    Fighting , eating a good amount of food in restaurants and sleepin . That was the circle for Mike .


    Stepping into the two wolf pit again Mike prepared for his battle .


    Somewhere in an university :


    "Meh ... why didn''t they let us fight in dungeons ? Instead we have to learn on how to aim properly , our only targets are made out of straw or wood ." complained student A .


    "Nothing we can change guys , we gotta do the basic year . After that we can challenge the dungeons !" said Student B with eager .


    "Nah , not only a year . Everyone who haven''t achieved level 2 will have to go into a special training year . " replied Calvin .


    "Hey , hey ! Did you read the newest article about how dungeons changes melee fighters ? The article says that melee fighters will change their attidude pretty quick . It seems like that if one misses them for a few month in the awakening they will seem like a different person ." asked female Student A .


    "Oy , i mean how can this happen ? After all they are only hacking some monsters ." asked Student A .


    "It only says 10% will have a major difference but everyone else ...... " explained female Student A .


    "See ? These Articles are only made to draw attention ." explained female Student B .


    "Then how about we bet ?" turning towards Calvin female student A said : "Calvin since you are from a public school and know some melee fighter how about betting on how they will change ?"


    Slowly some classmates walked over and said : "Haha , i bet people won''t change because of dungeons . We are in our puberty after all ."


    After a while the class suddenly broke out in a discussion whether it is true that people will change because of dungeons or not .


    "They won''t change , c''mon man it is only some blood and fighting experience . Didn''t we watched gore videos to prepare us for the real case ?"


    "These are only videos man ! Reality is completely different !"


    "Yeah , dungeons are changing melee fighters . After all we only have to stand far away while shooting . They have to fight eye for eye , tooth for tooth ."


    Suddenly a voice interrupted the discussion . "Seems like the discussion topic isn''t so different compared to my school time ."


    All students turned towars the source , seeing a teacher holding a book .


    "Since you have found a topic to fight for i believe we won''t have to divide your into team . Team one will be the one who doesn''t believe that dungeons changes melee people and team 2 will be the one believing that dungeons will change melee people ." said the teacher .


    Before anyone could say anything he continued : "Since i believe that we need an example , we should do it the old fashioned way . We will take a melee fighter who awakened with one of you and we will invite him on the graduation test ."


    Looking into his book he frowned : "Since we don''t have much people who have contact with melee fighter , to be correct only Calvin i hope you can present us one of you friends who became a melee fighters . Naturally he will be invited for the graduation test and will be rewarded ."


    Every single eye locked up on Calvin . Feeling emberassed his head started to become red , however he began to talk : "Okay , then i will talk about one of my friends . To say it better my best friend before we two awakened . He is an asian youth with the name Mike ."


    "Can you share about his characteristics ? After all we need to know how he changed ." asked the teacher .


    "Uuuu , but then doesn''t Calvin now how his friend changed ?" complained female student A .


    "Well no , he didn''t contacted me since the awakening ." said Calvin .


    "Ok continue ." said the teacher . Silence filled the classroom .


    *Cough*


    "Ok , how shall i start ? Well Mike is a quite person . I met him when he ate alone in the canteen . He is quite the nice fellow , he helps to wipe black board or he is there to answer a question if one doesn''t understand anything ." said Calvin .


    Stabbing a wolf into his eyes with his own kin Mike grinned , the wolf howled in pain and tried to fight back .


    "And ? How would you see him fight in the dungeons ?" asked the teacher .


    "Well , i believe since he is melee he would find a group pretty soon and tank for them . I believe wearing a shield and a spear would suit him ." answered Calvin .


    "Why a spear ? Sword is way cooler !" asked Student A .


    "Well , he said he will use a spear since a spear is easy to use . Naturally he would only use it to stab ." replied Calvin .


    Choking the last wolf to death Mike laughed , his body is filled with strength . At first he tried to kill every wolf with his axe or his sword , his pit training long forgotten . However as the mess created by the growing blunt sword and axe keep growing bigger he decided to fight bare handed and some monster weapons .


    "Wow , then ain''t he quite the nice fellow ? Would he even be able to kill a rabbit ?" exclaimed female Student A .


    "Yeah i believe that he would be able to ." smiled Cavin .


    Ripping apart a living wolf caused the other one crouch in fear . Seeing the bloody mess created by him , Mike laughed . Stepping over the corpse he decided not to collect the corpse , after all it is way too bloody . Punching the last wolf to death Mike grinned . Now he could go to the next pit .


    All of his clothes were nothing more than rags now , but did he care ? Not really . His smell was even worse than sh*t .


    As he walked out he could see how the people create a path for him . However he didn''t walked towards a street edge to sleep , instead he walked towards a certain building he has discovered .


    A bath house .


    Paying 10 system points he walked in . Stripping from his rags he cleaned himself with the existing medium . As soon as the water touched his body the water turned black .This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.


    After a while he could feel his skin coming back . He felt refreshed , though he did wondered why he didn''t got any illness .


    Scrubbing himself with a free sponge he felt delighted . Ah , so good ~


    "Can you tell me your story ?" a voice sounded through the air .


    Without even turning Mike ignored him , that is his precious bathing time so why should he pay attention ?


    "Hahah , my bad . Naturally you have to enjoy every moment . How could i bother you ." laughed the voice .


    After that the voice disappeared while Mike washed his body . Soon the mud on his body got swept away by the water .


    Smiling Mike entered the hot bath to enjoy his muscles . Seeing a man being already there he moved farther away . After all the bath is quite big .


    "So youngster , do you now have time to tell me your story ?" asked the man .


    Looking at the old man Mike could see a bald head and a white beard .


    Enjoying the feeling Mike spoke in a casual voice : "My story ? Normal . I lost the 50/50 chance of being a ranged fighter and thus ended up on the street ."


    Closing his eyes Mike felt the hot steam surrounding his body .


    "Then would you defend the state ?" questioned the old man .


    "No , i am not bound to protect the state ." laughed Mike .


    "What about family ? And your duty to alliance ? Didn''t they nutured you ?" asked the old man with a sad voice .


    "Hey , old man . Are you a ranged fighter or a melee ?" asked Mike .


    For a moment the old man remained silent before replying : "I am a support type ."


    An akward atmosphere filled the bathing room as Mike didn''t answered .


    After a while Mike started : "I heard these extraordinary types are living a life full of luxury ? Are you giving me the chance to bath with esteemed guest ? HUH ?"


    Remaining Silent the old man closed his eyes .


    Open his eyes he talked full of anger : "Be grateful you little brat ! Didn''t your parents educated you well ? Seems like one got full of himself and now can''t even went down from his high horse to apologize to his parents ."


    Mike replied coldly : "They are dead ."


    With a stunned face the old man looked at Mike . Seemingly feeling sorry .


    Seeing that his paid time in the bath-house neared its end he stood up and walked out to find his rags .


    Without knowing the old man followed him .


    Since he washed himself he tried to find a "cleaner" place to sleep than the normal street .


    Unbeknownst to him the old man followed him till he checked a bench and lied on it .


    "Hey , aren''t you afraid of catching a cold ?" asked the old man .


    "What do you want ?" yawned Mike with closed eyes .


    "Well i am only asking if you don''t have any lodging ." questioned the old man while looking at Mike with expecting eyes .


    "Heck , you sound like a perverted geezer trying to lure little children with candies ." complained Mike turning his head away .


    With an annoyed face the old man talked to Mike : "How about that , i am giving you a job and a lodging and you will be protecting the state . Sounds nice right ?"


    "Why are you so obsessed with me hating the state ? I am only a small fry , go help the masses and i will be included ." said Mike while trying to hush the old man away .


    "I already helped the majority , didn''t you seen the basic package for every melee fighter ? That was my job !" smiled the old man in a proud voice .


    Filled with rage Mike tried to punch the old man , with no success .


    "You are the one who caused me to lose 100 points and you dare to say that this piece of a loan should help the masses ? Isn''t this some sort of joke ? I calculated the things in the package and if you buy it directly from the shop it will only cost 40 points !" roared Mike in rage .


    Confused the old man looked at Mike with a disbelieving eye : "What do you say useless ? It may be meager , however it is free ! What for a bullshit of paying anything !"


    "Look at the goddamn site and you will see it ." snorted Mike .


    Mumbling that he can''t believe it and that the youth is lying the old man checked the site and indeed , between all of those luxorious packages for ranged fighters the crappy package for melee could be found .


    Enfuriated the old man cursed : "F*CK these son of a B*tch , can''t they do anything right ?"


    Seeing the old man being enraged Mike ignored him and tried to fall asleep .


    "Ahem , since you are being wronged by the state i will gift you a ticked to the dorm for melee fighters . How about it ?" said the old man in an akward tone .


    "No , go away . It will be another scam for sure ." yawned Mike .


    "It won''t be a scam for sure . I promise you , if it is a scam i will gift you a skill book !" exclaimed the old man in a serious tone .


    Suddenly a system panel appeared :


    [ Bet ]


    [ If it''s a scam you will receive a skill book with the name madness ]


    "What is a skill book ? Why have i never heard of it ? Does it mean i can learn a skill from the book ?" thought Mike .


    In the end he decided to follow the old man , who knows ? He will end up as the winner . The only thing Mike questioned was why did it happen ? Why does this old man spend so much time to woo melee fighters ?


    After following the old man for a while they arrived at a train station .


    "Go to the x-station and go to the z-street , there will be a free dorm for every melee fighter ." smiled the old man while giving him a free train ticket .


    Flabbergasted Mike looked how the old man walked away .


    What he didn''t know was that the old man already gathered more than 20 fighters today . Though he only did the bet with him since he already got scammed by the state .


    Arriving in front of the dorm Mike looked astouned at the building . It was a modern building with a swimming pool , a tennis court and a training hall .


    Stepping into the lobby he looked at all the shiny stuff . He wearing only rags drew some gazes over , however he ignored him .


    Just as he wanted to inquire about where to check in a man in a suit looked at him with contempt .


    "Why is a beggar like you stepping into this dorm ?" asked the man .


    "Ain''t this a free dorm for every melee fighter ?" questioned Mike with a serious face .


    "Hmpf , why are there so many beggars coming onto this place now ? Since you suddled our esteemed carpet you have to give us 500 points .


    With anger Mike only could pay all of his points he earned . Only about 20 points remained .


    Why he couldn''t throw a tantarum like last time somebody taunted him ? Because elite fighters looked at him with attention .


    Being thrown out Mike filled with hate to the state , is this some sort of joke ? He has to pay fck 500 points just to step on their filthy carpet ? F*ck this government !


    The only thing that lessened his anger was the bet , since he got scammed at least the skill book would be his .


    Taking out the Skill book he sighed , what for a piece of Sh*t !


    [ Mana Madness : the less mana you have compared to your max mana the more attack you will have ]


    Roaring he decided to learn this book to waste this skillbook . Besides he was sure that if he want to sell that it will be confiscated by the state !


    [Learned useless skill for host . Adapting it to change for the hosts , changed into mortal madness ]


    Eh ?


    Reading the new description Mike felt happy beyond control , skills can adapt ? Not only that , it changed to a godlike skill for him which synergized with his first skill extremely well !


    [ Mike Lv 1 ]


    HP 425/425


    STR: 25 AGI: 18 VIT: 34 Body : 26


    Strong Body : +400 HP


    Mortal Madness : +10% missing HP to STR and AGI


    Laughing he danced a little victory dance to celebrate his op skill .


    Why ? Because if he is in a close situation his speed will rise to almost more than triple compared to his healthy status .


    Not only that , if he is injured his STR will rise causing him to smash like a wargod !


    Thinking for a while Mike decided to follow the path of a berserker . A melee warrior with high HP but less armor who can slaugher an entire army alone .


    However Mike appeared to smile , he didn''t have any enchanged equipment and thus his HP remained small .


    "Seems like the 500 points are well spended ." mocked Mike himself while searching for a bench to sleep .


    Meanwhile :


    "I can''t believe it , didn''t i ordered to give every people a lodging as well as the free basic package ?" sighed an old man with a bald head and a white beard .


    If Mike could see the old man he would be recognized as the man who made the bet .


    "Why are you so negative ? We almost conquered the 4th world . Now we only have to advance a few kilometers till we will be able to reach the next world . Only then will true hassle begin ." laughed another old man who wasn''t bald but has as few hairs sticking out of his head .


    "Besides i don''t believe that the one of the best supporter types in the alliance would sigh about such a little problem . Just waste a few million points from your own pocket and pay for it . Why try to convince others ?"


    Looking at his friend the old man sighed : "Since you want to know it i will tell you the information . Lets hope that you can do something ."


    Suddenly a system panel appeared in front of the old man with a few hairs .


    [ System Warning ]


    [ After the 4th world is conquered all inhabitants are given a choice between giving their point value to the state or not . All people can be abducted by lures or profit (Only those who would change with a chance of 50%) ]


    [ After the 5th world is conquered you will join the worlds war , fight against other worlds and remain strong . ]


    [ You are now part of the warning , you are not allowed to interfere with the abduction and neither can help those who are mistreated . Try to help them or else your world will experience a crash 9/10 people in the warning ]


    Reading that the old man with few hairs looked with shock on the panel : "That can''t be true right ?"


    "No , after we conquered the 4th world all of the mistreated people will receive a chance to leave the alliance . I guarantee you if they happen to know that their existence gives us points and they seen the amount i believe the alliance won''t be able to give bonus to the range fighter anymore ."


    sighed the old man who made the bet .


    "The melee fighter gives way more basic points then a range fighter . Why didn''t you told me earlier old zara ? After all i am a general of the state and ..... " said the old man with few hairs .


    "You can''t interfere , you forget the panel ? Even if you want to change it , you can only watch now old Li ." sighed old zara .


    "No , i don''t believe it i mean .... " said old li .


    "I am not afraid about the economic issue , after all the ranged fighter can still earn huge amount of points by killing monsters . What i am afraid about is the fact that our melee fighters will join other worlds ." explained old Zara .


    "Why ? Even though they give much basic points our ranged fighters are still stronger than them ." exclaimed old Li .


    "Only if they can make the dps and somebody is tanking for them . How would you react when somebody is using you as money source while you are pretty much living on the street ? Do you believe that they won''t leave our world ? It is not like we can stop it now . Besides i believe that the state soon has to answer the melee fighters with huge sums of system points ." said old zara while looking at the stubborn face of his friend , adding : "Even if they leave i believe they will come back and fight for their rights . They will try to murder and reign in the place of the alliance ."


    "What you are trying to say we are doomed . I can''t believe that the alliance will soon face a huge disaster because of a silly emotion called pride ." sighed Old Li at Old Zara .

 Chapter 5 Invited

    A week passed since Mike made the bet . His second skill could be described as tailor made for him . After clearing the 1-8 dungeon called five orc group Mike thought of trying to clear the last pit dungeon . Naturally he chose some monster suitable for him , after all if he tried to fight against skeleton mage he would be pretty much doomed if he couldn''t kill the mage .


    Thus he has a choice between a bear , 10 orcs , or 5 wolfs with 1 alpha as the last dungeon he wanted to conquer .


    (AN: there are many pit dungeons , for example there are kobold archers , frogs which vomit acid etc. , however Mike only chose melee duels)


    Even though he could skip the last pit and try to get into a dungeon group to clear dungens above 1-9 and get rewards from it , he didn''t do it . The reason is simple , he already tasted the benefit of being strong . In this one week he earned enough points to go into the bath house everyday , eat 3 meals per day which consisted of double or even triple huge servings of noodles , meat or rice and he could replace his rags with clothes which turned into rags after one or two fights .


    So what would change if he applied to a group ? Nothing , after all one dungeon wouldn''t allow him to get a lodging immediately . Nowadays he even thought of doing a dungeon alone , however he dismissed it since never fought against groups more than 5 . What would happen if he encountered a dungeon boss with more than 10 monsters ? Since it is impossible to leave a dungeon without any special methods he would only have one choice : Death !


    Walking into the 5 Orc Pit Mike prepared to fight against this group . A normal orc would be only around 1.6 meters which is almost a head smaller than Mike . Thus he only has to disable one or two orcs and then he would be able to finish the other 3 with ease .


    Dashing towards the first orc Mike grabbed into its eyes and killed it immediately , since it was only a weak orc it was no wonder .


    At first he kinda wondered about the pit system , since real monsters from other worlds are taken how can the dungeon different between orcs ? Well through Mikes experience he felt that each pit has an upper limit and a lower limit . So the strenght of each monster variates and so the difficulty .


    For example once Mike met 5 orc warriors who wore leather armors and rusty swords , he almost died in the battle . Now he got lucky and only met 5 orc civilians .


    Though each monsters give different points in average one could say an orcs gives 20 points killed .


    It may be only 5 points or even up to 40 points , however one can only pray that there won''t appear a strong group or else one will perish .


    Kneading his back Mike thought of trying his last dungeon and then apply to one of the groups to raid a dungeon . Maybe he will get lucky and get a set item on the first run . Thus enabling him to sell it for a few thousands or even a few millions of points if the item is rare .


    After he got the skill book he tried to find where to find another skill book . It was quite easy to find the information after he knew that skill books existed , he frowned over the price though .


    The cheapest one would be 10k points and there was no upper limit . He even saw some skill book which sold for over billions of points .


    Walking towards the Dungeon portal Mike decided to do his last pit and then search for a group to clear a dungeon .


    Selecting the Bear Pit 1-9 Mike clenched his hands into fists , he already discarded his basic sword and his axe . After all they got blunt and it is way better to temper his hands .


    Just as he grinned and believed that he would smack the bear into his death he gaped .


    He gaped in front of the bear . He only imagined normal bear , the worst case a grizzly bear at the size of a car .


    But what stood at front him is was hind bear . A three meter tall giant .


    Despair filled Mike , how should he kill that ? Just as he believed that it would be the end the hind bear noticed him .


    An earthshattering roar sounded through the pit . Opening his jaw the bear spew fire .


    Trying to dodge Mike failed . His left shoulder felt the pain of being burned .


    "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !" howled Mike while tears let his vision get blurry .


    Without he is doomed .


    As if mocking him the hind bear smacked Mike towards the wall . His left shoulder being crippled Mike faced death .


    Looking at his Hp Mike smiled bitterly : 17/425


    Even if his speed and strenght get enhanced by 40.8 each he wouldn''t be able to fight against this bear .


    Suddenly he felt peaceful , as if one would mediate in front of a beautiful landscape .


    Is this death ?


    Seeing how the Hind Bear didn''t move Mike searched for something which may give him hope . Nothing more than stones and dirt surrounded him , however he searched in his inventory . He didn''t bought any weapons , only corpses of his killed monsters were there .


    Taking out the corpses Mike howled liked a madman . Abruptly the entire pit filled itself with corpses full of orcs , goblin and wolfs .


    (AN: it may sound like too much corpses , but remember he did many runs in different dungeons , from 1-3 - 1-8 he only faced groups . Not only that , orcs may be only 1.6meters but their are pretty fat . And the pit high is unlimited only the space .)


    Feeling the dead body squeezing on him Mike could hear how the hind bear howled in anger . After all one wouldn''t find it amusing if one is bathing in dead bodys .


    Using his fire breath the hind bear burned all corpses in his way . The little ant he tried to kill disappeared in the mass of corpses , however he shouldn''t be far away . After all he could rush from one end to the other with only a few seconds .


    Meanwhile Mike "swam" in the sea of corpses only using his right hand and his legs to push himself forward . He tried to use as little force as possible to get unnoticed from point a to point b .


    Breaking of one of the sharp fangs of a wolf with his right hands Mike prepared to jump out and run towards the hind bear with his utmost speed . His goal would be the hind bears eyes .


    It may sound stereotype , however it is his only choice . It may be that the eyes would be the most protected , however he didn''t know what else he could do .


    Running towards the bear Mike tried not to make any noise . But he faild and thus the bear looked at him .


    Since it was pretty much useless to hide any longer Mike howled and rushed towards the hind bear .


    A flame brushed his entire front body as the hind bear ripped the front body out .


    Two legs dropped on the ground while Mike felt how the tongue of the bear coiled around him to chew to death .


    Hacking the tooth into the soft tongue of the bear caused the bear to howl out . With force the bear tried to use his tongue to guide Mike towards his tooths .If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.


    However Mike voluntary slipped towards the throat of the bear .


    Feeling the slimy spit of the bear touching his bloody lower part Mike bit his lips causing it to bleed .


    Using the Fang of the wolf as a holding Stick Mike tried to stay in the throat of the bear .


    The Bear coughed wildly , it tried to breath however Mike seemed like a seal on his throat .


    Choking the bear tried to cough Mike , however it failed .


    In the end it bashed against the wall to let the vibrations hit Mike in his throat .


    In this time second appeared like days , Mike hoped that the Bear would die .


    Using his right Hand Mike held the teeth and tried to grip it harder and harder . The Spit of the bear seemed like glitchy slime and his hand felt how he lost the grip .


    Feeling eternal darkness surrounding him Mike felt peaceful . It seems like he will die .


    ......


    ....


    ....


    The end


    .....


    ...


    ....


    ....


    (Sry , i couldn''t help but do this *^*)


    ....


    .....


    As Mike woke up he could feel his legs which were ripped off by the bear .


    A system Panel greeted his eyes :


    [ You''ve slayed fire cub King Molor , you absorbed the spirit of its power ]


    [ + 100 Vitality + 100 Strength ]


    [ You received Trait of the Bear ]


    [ You leveled up , congratulation on reaching level 2 ]


    [ + 25 Base Health ]


    [ You learned Path of Cleansing(0/5) - ]


    [ Full Healing of Body and Mind ]


    Laughter sounded through the air as Mike felt happy that he survived through this hell .


    Standing up he lied in a sea of smelling corpses .


    However the so called King Molor disappeared .


    Without any reason to stay any further Mike left the dungeon without collection the smelly corpses .


    As soon as he stepped out of the dungeon he howled : "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !"


    Wiping his tears aways he smiled . Alive !


    Breathing a few times he laughed . Laughing for a few minutes he calmed down , his mouth still formed into a smile .


    The feeling of being alive is soo gooood ~


    Checking his stats he called upon his stats , he got his next skills . Not only that , he got a few stats buff since he killed the bear lord that seemed to be invincible .


    [ Mike Lv 2 ]


    HP 450/450


    STR: 128 AGI: 23 VIT: 139 Body : 99


    Strong Body : +400 HP


    Mortal Madness : +10% missing HP to STR and AGI


    Path of Cleasing(0/5): Temper your Skin


    Trait of Bear : '' - ''


    Frowning about his lack of agility Mike tried to think about how should he fix that problem . Even though his strength and vitality are quite high the lack in agility may cost his life if the opponent is stronger than him .


    Well not that he can do anything in a short time .


    What interested him is the fact that he achieved a skill which he has to train . Since he has to train for it the bonus shouldn''t be so bad right ?


    So how can he temper his skin ? Cutting it open so it regenerates ? No , that will only hurt his skin .


    After spending some points for a feast to celebrate his victory , he tried to push the matter with skin tempering to another day , because joining a group will bring more advantage to him than getting stronger .


    Sitting in a restaurant he checked a few bigger raid partys . Even though a small group may be more familiar , but it is way easier to get into an argument .


    Suddenly a message appeared from BunBunnyBun :


    [ Hey FronTank , we got a slot free in our raid in Windy Plains 1-678 . ]


    [ You don''t need to do anything , you don''t even have to come . However it is free loot if we use the maxium capacity ]


    Wondering why BunBunnyBun got the perfect request moment he answered with a yes .


    [ Okay , the raid duration is about a month . Mainly there are wolfs , and the bosses are 8 mini bosses and the alpha . Everyone can keep their loot . Just prepare some food and don''t be a hindrance . ]


    [ By the way , it is not me who is doing the raid . It will be Crusadordeath ]


    Sending a friendship request to bunbunnybun Mike stood up and prepared for the raid .


    "Thank god , i didn''t now why but the grandfather of Elizabeth forced her to carry a few melee fighters with her ." sounded a female voice through the panel .


    Surprised that BunBunnyBun is a female Mike casually responded : "Fine with me , after all i get free loot . Besides 1-678 is quite hard for me . However i heard that the set in the windy plains are not the best for melee , to say it in other words it is pretty bad compared to the other sets . So why does the grandfather forces her own granddaughter ?"


    Prior to his awakening Mike would find it akward to talk to girls , after all he is one of the shy-types . But after fighting in the dungeons for two weeks his personality changed in 180¡ã .


    (AN: It may sound a little bit unbelievable , a shy guy changing completely in only 2 weeks ? But remember that the life of each of us may crumble in the split of a second . Remember life is fragile so don''t take it for something granted .)


    "I don''t know why , but her grandfather threatened her with the possibility of staying in her home for the next weeks . So her only possibility was it to gather as much melee fighters as he could . You are one of those , though many refuses . After all the set is really thrash compared to other sets . So ... will you join ? They will move out in a few hours and stay the night in the dungeon to familiar themselfs ." said BunBunnyBun .


    Using the voice chat which is opened for friends Mike answered : "Okay i am going . When do we gather ?"


    "I think in a few hours . My big brother will be in the raid as well . I will talk to him so that he will inform you when they are ready ." said BunBunnyBun .


    "Okay bye ." said Mike as he stopped the voice chat .


    Walking out he dashed towards the most important things he want to get . Food , weapons and a sleeping bag .


    For food he only chose jerky and bread . Even though the food in the inventory won''t spoil , cooked soup won''t be warm if taken out .


    Buying a good axe for about 1k points , which emptied his pockets , as well as a fur coat to fight against the temperature and a sleeping bag he prepared himself for the raid .


    Afraid of being lied upon and then laughed at ? Well , one day he would buy the stuff whether he this is a joke or a real raid .


    After putting the sleeping bag and the axe in his now empty inventory he pulled the fur coat over his shoulders .


    Putting the hoody over his head he felt the soft material . Good Coat !


    Waiting for the message to arrive he could hear a friend request being send in .


    Accepting he could hear a male voice : "Hmm .... So you are the acquainted person of my little sister ?"


    "And ? When does the raid start ?" asked Mike while ignoring the question .


    "In twenty minutes . How about the grouping room ? After all the raid will be conducted by many units together . Ah , before i forget : " said the male voice .


    [ Non harm contract , accept ? ]


    Accepting it Mike walked into the dungeon portal , only to arrive in a waiting room . Nobody was there except a single male .


    Looking to be in his early 20s , a handsome black guy .


    "Hi , i am Akira ." smiled Akira while glitter surrounded him .


    Rubbing his eyes Mike looked again , indeed glitter surrounded Akira .


    "So why are you the only one here ? Where is the rest ?" aske Mike .


    "Ehm..... well since you are new to the raid i hope that you can help the support division a little big with the physical stuff . They have pretty good skills but are pretty weak at running , fighting or even carrying stuff ." explained Akira with a smile .


    "Oh ok . Nice to meet you and thanks for letting me participate in the raid ." said Mike while holding his hands towards Akira .


    Taking the hands of Mike a friendly greet seemed to appear .


    Akira seemed to grip a little hard , however Mike indicated it as a test and gripped with full force .


    "Hahahaha , indeed good ." smiled Akira , confirming the thought of Mike .


    After sending Mike towards the real waiting room Akira frowned . That grip hurt like hell !


    Even though he already awakened for about 8 years he wasn''t a fighter who trained his strength , causing his strenth stat not being over 50 .


    At first he wanted to confirm which little f*cker dared to be acquainted with his sister . However as he saw the murderous gaze lurking in the shadow of the hoody , he could feel sweat pouring out of his body . Even with his 8 years experience he still couldn''t get used to the gaze of the beasts .


    Adding that with the fact that the acquaintance of his sister is taller than him who is 1.8 meters and way broader than him he felt a little bit Intimidated .


    However he regained his confidence in a few seconds and heard the greetings of the boy causing him to feel not bad about his future brother in law . Only the fact that he is a melee fighter caused him to worry , but he supported the love of his sister !


    (AN: Many notes .... too many notes but read the future raid scene and you will understand how a 8-year "veteran" is still afraid .)


    Arriving in the real waiting room Mike felt how the gazes penetrated him .


    A skinny youth received him .


    "Are you one of those melee leechers ?" asked the skinny youth with a questioned face .


    "Yea ." replied Mike in a short sentence while deciding his wall to lean on .


    Without looking how the youth seemed to look Mike walked towards the least populated wall and leaned on it .


    "Well i am Mark , we leechers have to work together or else we will be bullied by the majority . After all they are all seem to be ..... " exclaimed the skinny youth in a whipser .


    "Hey ! Hey ! Don''t deem us the bad site ." a male voice sounded through the air .


    With an interested look Mike gazed at the source . Not because of the content , but because of the fact that a dwarf said it . A dwarf like in the tales with a brown beard , brown hair and a small but broad build .


    Holding a musket he laughed at Mike : "Hahahaha ! Don''t feel uncomfortable ! We are just like a rowdy family ."


    *Clap* *Clap*


    "Okay , we are all assembled . 568 Ranged fighters and 396 support fighters are participating in this raid . The rest is filled with melee fighters or relatives who need experiences . Towards those who are getting carried please help the support fighters in their duty . Okay , Start !" declared Akira after clapping twice .


    Soon the first members disappeared in a white light . After a while Mike disappeared from the waiting room .


    Arriving at the normal circle Mike stepped out . Wind brushed his coat causing it to swing with the wind .


    A white moon dived the endless sea of grass in a silver shade .


    Seeing how the other people spread their camps Mike prepared his sleeping bag .


    Lying in the warm cocoon Mike spent his first night in a dungeon .

 Chapter 6 Raid

    "Haha !" yelled a dwarf in joy before shooting his musket with a loud sound .


    *Peng*


    The car-sized grey wolf died with one shot .


    It is noon at the first day in the raid of the windy plains .


    After Mike awakened he tried to find his job in this raid so he searched the support division leader and tried to ask what he can do .


    Finding the support leader wasn''t as difficult as he thought , however Mike couldn''t believe how useless the leader is .


    Not that he would be a better leader , however the image from an middle aged man with beard crumbled . Suprisingly the leader is a young girl , to be precise Elizabeth Zara from the house Zara , with a support skill called summon .


    Although she is the leader in-name Mike didn''t asked her what to do , instead he asked a sub-leader called Thomas .


    Why didn''t he asked the leader ? The reason is simple , Elizabeth is from a powerful family of supporters so it wouldn''t be "okay" for him to ask her . Besides it is a 1000 man raid and being a leader is a quite powerful position , if he offends her without even knowing it then he is doomed .


    How ? Well she just have to tell her circle about Mike and then he won''t be able to participate in any grand raids anymore .


    At least Thomas fit the description of a perfect sub-leader . Middle aged , kindly and a beard .


    "So what should i do Thomas ?" asked Mike .


    "Hahaha , just lean back and enjoy the show of getting free loot ." laughed Thomans while patting Mike on the shoulders while adding : "If you really want to help , then just don''t be a nuisance ."


    The last sentence wasn''t really an insult for Mike , since looked how the ranged fighter took out guns or wands and killed the monster with ease . Trying to fight as a melee would only annoy them .


    "Well , don''t take my sentencen as an insult . You can''t help us , however since you are melee and not from a rich house my advice to you is it to loot the carcass of the monsters . I believe you can sell those things to the crafting guild . After all they can''t go fighting ." said Thomas trying to cheer up Mike .


    "Wait , why can''t the crafting guild go fighting ?" questioned Mike in a surprised voice , why didn''t he heard anything about them in school ?


    "Well , even though the general dividing line between people are ranged and melee i believe you can imagine that some skills are not suited for fighting . For example i know one whose skill is [Sharpen] , though he can use it to sharpen his blade in fighting he opened a shop in which he make blunt weapon razor sharp . Same with ranged skill . So the truth is only a handful of skills are suited to battle , the rest could only be used for battle though it won''t be as strong ." explained Thomas .


    "Well , my skill is [Hawk Eyes] . Normally i should be a scout or something , however i use a sniper rifle to deal damage ." added Thomans while taking out a sniper rife .


    Thanking and bidding goodbye to Thomas Mike walked towards the silent battefield . The raid , consisting out of 1000 man advanced quite fast . Once the wolfs were killed on the plain , some people would summon a few helpers to carry some defence fences to the next line .


    The corpses of the monsters , mostly monsters like buffalos , rabbits or wolfs are scattered on the ground .


    Running around Mike collected one corpse after another , trying to fill his inventory .


    It wasn''t easy to follow the group , after all they advanced in a fast pace . So Mike could only wheep over the corpses he couldn''t collect .


    He even has to chase the camp once . What fascinated him is the fact that each member except a few got a mount , yes a mount . If everybody would ride ordinary mounts nothing would surprise Mike , however they rid on snails , fire horses , large birdys , some even rid on big lions .


    In the end Mike could only ditch the corpses and chase them like a madman , some people who like him had no mounts could only run with them sweating on the whole body .


    To summarize the two weeks he spend in the dungeon it would be run , try to throw corpses into his inventory and wipe his sweat away before eating and sleeping .


    The raid was in no way different than a training camp . However Mike didn''t regret the fact of joining the raid , though he imagined the raid a little bit different .


    After all one would imagine a team slowly advancing , while the mages would fire their fireballs or ice lances towards the monster and thus killing it . However Mike experienced what the real raiding appeared to be in the modern age , mounting a mount and killing everything on its way without even looting the corpses .


    After two weeks the raid neared its end , the group killed the wolf boss as well as the mini bosses and thus the whole group said goodbye to each other .


    Since Mike didn''t talked to many people in the raid besides Thomas he only said a short goodybe while looking at his status which rose up because of the training .

    Trait of Bear : '' - ''


    Smiling he left the dungeon while looking at the dungen reward :


    [ Congratulation , you cleared Windy Plains 1-678 ]


    [ Your evaluation is F , you received 140 points and its Dungeon Box 1x ]


    Looking at the amount of points he sighed , did he wasted 2 weeks ?


    However he looked at the Dungeon Box which contained all of his hope and being the deciding factor if the two weeks were worth or wasted .


    Normally it should be worth it , however he needed a power up or some good equipment .


    Opening it he looked at the amount of loot in it :


    [ Wolf Necklace ]


    ....


    ....


    ...


    That''s it ? A single necklace ?


    It couldn''t be a joke right ? Shouldn''t there be always more than 5 things in it like potions , some crafting material or with luck an enchanted equipment ? Or with even greater luck a set item ?


    Frowning Mike decided that the necklace should be a set item , looking at its stats it''s indeed one !Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.


    Rubbing his hands he looked at the Stats :


    [ Wolf Necklace (Wolf Set) ]


    [ +100% Projectile Dmg ]


    (Wolf Set : Necklace , Body , Arms , Coat , head , Boots )


    2/6 + 300 Projectile Damage


    4/6 + 300% Projectile Speed


    6/6 + 300% Projectile Dmg


    Sighing Mike looked at the stats , great sh*t ! Now he has to sell it and try to buy good equipment , can''t just a set for melee appear for him ? Why does it have to be a set for range ?


    It''s not that Mike isn''t happy , however he knew that as long as the necklace is quite common then he will be doomed . After all if the offer is bigger than the demand , the price will be low .


    Sitting on a bench he send a thanking message to BunBunnyBun for inviting him to the raid as well as Thomas for giving him advices on how to earn money by collecting the corpses .


    After that he searched through Gaia for the set of Windy plains which seemed to be quite the hot topic for ranged fighters and quite the cold for melee fighters .


    He found the page quite fast since the Windy Plain set is deemed as the strongest beginner set for ranged fighters .


    [ Windy Plain Set - Also known as Wolf Set ]


    For Ranged :


    (Wolf Set : Necklace , Body , Arms , Coat , head , Boots )

    F5 Sect:


    First !


    Trolooooo :


    Omg that set is so op ! It even looks quite cool . I hope that one day i will have it completed . Wish me luck !"


    Abseihw¨¹e:


    Meh ... the drop chances are so low for the set items and even then there is the chance of getting the melee set ! Curse it ! I once got the Wolf Coat only to realize that it is the part for melee ;-; !


    Obogod:


    Yeah it sucks ... why can''t i get we choose whether we want it for melee or for range ? What is even this body stat ? Some hidden stat ? I don''t even got STR on my status , is something wrong here ?


    Helpo198:


    @Obogod , on your status will only appear your major points for example a warrior would have str , maybe an archer or a monk would have it too . On the opposite a warrior won''t have the stats INT or WIS .


    Obogod:


    @Helpo198 , Thanks man !


    Armysuperman:


    .... I have to say that this set is quit the bullshi*t , i mean why do i have to have the stat body to avoid the penalty ? I am a warrior with the first skill [Strike] which allow me to hit double as hard , but i don''t have the stat body ! It is so unfair :(


    Reading through the post underneath Mikes face changed from disappointment to happiness and from happiness to euphoria .


    He has the body stat and it is even over 100 , that means he is allowed to wear it without penalty ! That is so good for him . Now he only has to sell this Wolf Necklace for a whole melee set .


    The place where he can exchange his Wolf necklace ? Naturally in the Gaia Auction .


    (AN: It sounds a little bit too much of plot armor , however it is modern time and if an auction isn''t implemented yet , then it would be quite akward for the alliance who uses Gaia as their official forum . Besides i believe that many of you now ask why the clothes have such "OP" buffs and why normal clothes don''t have one . To say it directly it is something called enhancement , so even a shield can have the enhancement +50 Agility . However it will still have the "basic" use of a shield . In Mmorpgs there are always these bikini armors for girls right ? Their basic defense is pretty much sh*t , however the enhancement is the good sh*t which gives the defense . Unterstand ? There is the basic defense + enhancement . )


    Searching for other Wolf necklaces which got auctioned in the past , he looked at the price with an astonished gap .


    They sold for millions of points ? How is that even possible ? One traded even one necklace for 10 rare skill books !


    Since it is impossible to put something into the marked which one doesn''t own Mike took out the necklace and stored it into the auction house .


    Naturally fighter feared that their expensive item would get stolen , thus the state signed a "protective" contract with every user .


    Setting the price into "Only Exchange for stuff" Mike waited for the first customers to appear .


    Alibabab175:


    You got the wolf necklace for ranged ? Lolololololo . Lucker .


    Meatbundelivery:


    I will give you the panties of a female in exchange !


    Sighing Mike deleted both comments while waiting for real buyers to appear .


    Somewhere else :


    "Goddammit , why are the ranged set items so rare ?" cursed a female with brown drills/hair .


    "Elizabeth , calm down . It is not like that the ranged items are so rare . Its just the fact that everybody wants the ranged ones and thus the melee ones are deemed as common ." explained a black haired beauty .


    "You don''t have to get me the whole set . After all i already possess 5/6 . The only thing that i don''t have is the necklace which is the equipment that rarely drops for anybody . Besides sometimes it even appers in an auction ." answered a blond beauty , also known by Mike as the female who tested him .


    Rolling her eyes Elizabeth answered in a sharp tone : "Yeah , yeah and we are able to buy it in an auction ."


    It may be a fact that the trio came from powerful familys , however they didn''t have much liquid money on hand .


    Everything is invested into buildings , companys or their powerful fighters .


    "Don''t you have to go into the summoner dungeons ? I believe the special skill book would support your knights ." replied Merle .


    Just as Elizabeth wanted to say something Mary exclaimed : "It seems like we have a chance to get the wolf necklace . There is an anonymous who put the necklace into the auction , only for exchange .


    "Exchange ?" said both of them in a surprise .


    Nothing to wonder , if the persons wants to exchange equipment or skill book then they as the granddaughter of the familys heir would have a chance to aqquire the rare necklace .


    Back to Mike :


    After a while the real customers started to comment on the auction post :


    RIchman9:


    I will give you 10 skill books for it ? How about it ?


    Babojr:


    @RIchman9 , these 10 skill books are the cheapest right ? How about i give a mansion on city Z with great vision and your own swimming pool ?


    Underpantman:


    Forget these two , i will give you 20 different skillbooks as well as 200 mana and health potions .


    RIchman9:


    @Underpantman , Hahahaha this name . Forget their offers , how does 25 different skill books sound ?


    ......


    An excited feeling surged through him , doesn''t that mean he solve his lodging problem and get some equipment ? Heck some even offered a house , some skill books and an equipment set .


    However they tend to offer skill books than houses and only then equipment . Does that mean that equipment is deemed as high ? Or the opposite and they believe that he , Mike doesn''t need any equipment any longer ?


    Trying to get the best offer Mike added :


    Exchange for : Full Set of Wolf(melee) and a lodging as well as skill books .


    Suddenly the comment stopped posting . Feeling that the sh*tstorm is happening soon Mike prepared for the onslaught .


    And the sh*tstorm came .


    KUkra:


    Holy Sh*t you are able to wear this set ? If not you wouldn''t ask for it .


    Blackmamba:


    We are the guild blackmamba , do you want to join us ?


    .....


    Thus Mike deleted every single comment which content asked about why he wanted that set and how he could wear it .


    In the end he even has to use the setting in which 10 people could bid their highest stake . Only to be kicked out by a person who bid more . In the end these 10 people would make a small auction in which they add more to get the item .


    Putting Gaia away Mike decided to wait for a while , after all he didn''t believed that the necklace value would disappear overnight . Instead , he hoped that somebody would offer all that he needed , the melee wolf set as well as a lodging .


    Naturally more would be better .


    After eating steak and potatoes for 10 points he took his sleeping bag and hoped for the day he would be able to have his own lodging . Renting one is quite expensive .


    Meanwhile in Mikes auction Post :


    1. Melee Wolf Set + 5 Skill Books by choice + A House on the roof of skyscraper B


    2. Melee Wolf Set + 4 Skill Books by choice + An apartment in the luxus street


    3. Melee Wolf Set + 4 Skill Books by choice + A House + apartment in urban areas


    4. Melee Wolf Set + 1 Skill by choice Books + a House in the luxus street

    6. Melee Wolf set + 3 Skill Books


    7. Northern Weapon Set(Shield+Sword) + 3 Skill books


    8. 2 Apartmens in urban areas + 5 Skill Books


    9. 10 skill books + 2 Skill Books by choice


    10. 30 Skill Books + An enhanced Spear

 Chapter 7 Lodging

    While the sun shone on the ass of Mike he woke up by hearing a couple saying a sentence to their children : "Always train hard in school , even if you are a melee fighter don''t give up . See that person ? He sleeps on the street because he doesn''t work hard ."


    Sneering in his mind Mike taunted : "This society sucks , i lived a normal school life and killed my way through the dungeons for more than one month . And they dare to say that i am lazy ?"


    Sighing he scratched his butt while ignoring the people who looked at him with disgust .


    At first he didn''t do private stuff in public , after all he still was one of the innocent people . However after experiencing dungeons and living for more than 1 month on the street he felt that it really didn''t matter how people look at you .


    You look at me with disgust cause i am scratching my buff in public ? Hey there are monsters in the dungeons whom i try to kill alone . ALONE !


    Not only that , Mike have nobody to rely on . No lover , no relatives . Even his best and only true friend disappeared to a ranged scholarship .


    The rest of the people he knew fought with their parents .


    After sighing Mike looked at the floating panel in front of him . If he didn''t have such a good luck in the raid he probably would still live on the street .


    However it seemed that people would offer apartments or even houses in precious locations .


    Rubbing his hands Mike looked at the list of the final offers .


    Giggling like a madman caused him to earn more looks , however he didn''t cared .


    Raising his arms he howled a victory cry before thinking what items would the people offer him for the final auction ?


    In the forum :


    - : The second auction may start . Please offer a list with the items you want to exchange . I will eliminate 5 people after the first round and one after another . Chat is hereby opened .


    After 5 minutes the list of items changed :


    1. Melee Wolf Set + 5 Skill Books by choice + A House on the roof of skyscraper B (+0)


    2. Melee Wolf Set + 4 Skill Books by choice + An apartment in the luxus street (+0)


    3. Melee Wolf Set + 4 Skill Books by choice + A House + apartment in urban areas + (1000 points)


    4. Melee Wolf Set + 1 Skill by choice Books + a House in the luxus street (+ Catcha Pet Slot)


    5. Melee Wolf Set + Skill Book : HP Sharing (+ Skill Book : Support Aura)


    6. Melee Wolf set + 3 Skill Books (+ 0)


    7. Northern Weapon Set(Shield+Sword) + 3 Skill books (+ Melee Wolf Set)


    8. 2 Apartmens in urban areas + 5 Skill Books (+1 apartment + 1 enhanced weapon)


    9. 10 skill books + 2 Skill Books by choice (+20 Skill books + two enhanced weapons)


    10. 30 Skill Books + An enhanced Spear (+20 skill books + an apartment)


    Thinking for a while Mike deleted 8 , 9 , 10 , as well as 6 .


    Frowning upon which number he should eliminate next Mike decided to change the rules from 5 to 4 .


    Naturally he could do this since he is the one who is the auctioneer .


    The third round followed :


    1. Melee Wolf Set + 5 Skill Books by choice + A House on the roof of skyscraper B (+0) (+0)


    2. Melee Wolf Set + 4 Skill Books by choice + An apartment in the luxus street (+0) (+0)


    3. Melee Wolf Set + 4 Skill Books by choice + A House + apartment in urban areas + (1000 points) (+0)


    4. Melee Wolf Set + 1 Skill by choice Books + a House in the luxus street (+ Catcha Pet Slot) (+0)


    5. Melee Wolf Set + Skill Book : HP Sharing (+ Skill Book : Support Aura) (+0)


    6. Northern Weapon Set(Shield+Sword) + 3 Skill books (+ Melee Wolf Set) (+1 skill book by choice)


    Eliminating 3 and 5 to make up for one round he waited for the 4 round to start .


    What he didn''t know was that in this one moment somewhere people analized his behaviour :


    "He eliminated the person who put up 2 lodging , it seems he only need one lodging and that should be a good one . It seems like it is one of those homeless guys who got lucky ." spoke a female secretary .


    "Homeless or not , it seems like he is melee . Thus no need to gift him any protection talisman . Don''t increase the rate of skill books , he seems to know that quantity on a single person won''t increase his power . Instead he wants quality ." spoke an old man while caressing his beard .


    "I have to have this necklace . My granddaughter already has the other parts ." added the old man in a low voice before looking at the auction again .


    Suddenly he spoke : "Add the house in the luxury street as well and delete the house at the skyscraper . Even though the view of the skyscraper is amazing it is quite useless and the house is more for relaxing ."


    The 4 and 5 round passed with nobody of the raising the price , after all it is possible to leave the auction in this way .


    Causing Mike to delete 3 and 5 . In the end Mike could only delete 2 before moving on the last rounds .


    Just as the last three offered their lists suddenly an item changed :


    1. Melee Wolf Set + 5 Skill Books by choice + a House in the luxus street + 5 skill books of choice


    2. Melee Wolf Set + 1 Skill by choice Books + - Gone - (+ Catcha Pet Slot) + (5000) points)


    3. Northern Weapon Set(Shield+Sword) + 3 Skill books (+ Melee Wolf Set) (+3 skill book by choice)


    With surprise Mike looked at the item change from 1 and 2 . He already heard of people changing the items , however the value had to remain the same or topple the thing from before . Though the melee wolf set couldn''t be changed since Mike wanted it to remain .


    Now Mike felt that the choice felt pretty easy , he eliminated candidate 2 while moving on to the final round .


    Somewhere in a mansion :


    "Argh , how could it be ? Does that mean that grandfather took away the house or sold it ?" shouted Merle in a loud voice .


    While cursing Merle could only watch how the system kicked her out .


    Meanwhile Mike grinned , he chosed candidate one after nobody offered more . After all he needed a lodging to get a base for his future plan .


    If Mike didn''t have the experience on the street this story would be over . Living in good house , getting a partner for the rest of his life and settle down . Doing some dungeon runs with friends and living off his little life .


    But he realized that power is something necessary to survive . The house he earned today can be taken away in an instance .If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it.


    Didn''t he lived on the street because he lacked power ? After all as a melee he couldn''t fight a ranged .


    After the transaction finished he moved to his new house .


    Nothing specular happened , Mike got his payment and the one got the necklace .


    After visiting the house in the luxus street Mike smiled like an idiot . Thats a jackpot !


    Not only does the luxus street have an service to get all the food , it even has its own dungeon portal .


    Arriving in front of the street Mike felt a little bit disappointed , nothing was different from a normal suburb . The only difference was as gate with guards at the entrance .


    Without any troubles Mike towards his house . Two floors with a basement . A garden the size of an football field surrounded by walls .


    Surprisingly a dungeon portal existed in the basement .


    The next few days nothing special happened , Mike filled his house with food and normal stuff like bed , television etc.


    He finished after a week .


    Looking at his status Mike held the 10 coupons for a skill book by choice . Naturally , he already equipped the wolf set .


    [ Mike Lv 2 ]


    HP 20500 ((450+1600)*10) / 20500 ((450+1600)*10)


    Defense 1720


    STR: 129 AGI: 144 (44+100) VIT: 143 Body : 115


    Strong Body : +400 HP


    Mortal Madness : +10% missing HP to STR and AGI


    Path of Cleasing(0/5): Temper your Skin


    Trait of Bear : '' - ''


    With a evil laugh he looked at the amound of HP he got . More than 20k Health ! Doesn''t that mean he is able to survive about 200 bullets ? With each of them piercing his body !


    Looking at the amount he taunted his future enemys with a sneer : "Look at me ! Even if i can''t kill my enemys at least they can''t kill me if a want to run !"


    However Mike still pondered about the Defense stat , does it give damage reduction ? Then is it percentage or points ? Or does it only represent the power of his equipment ? But some equipment doesn''t have defense , does this mean that they have no power value ?


    Pondering for a while Mike dismissed the defense stat , later he will search for an equipment guide on gaia . After all there is something more important than that right now : Choosing 10 skill books !


    However he soon realized that in truth one wouldn''t get 10 skill books by choice . Instead each skill book represented a coupon with the value of one normal skill book .


    He even found a list with all the common ones , the mortal madness he got due from an mutation is catogorized as a lesser skill books . Thus making it a skill that needs to have 20 of its kind to trade with a normal one .


    After reading a few articles he glared at the coupons , not idear whether he should curse of them or love them .


    It seems like that these coupons are used by the alliance to prevent the point usage .


    Since if the entire world would only have one currency , doesn''t that mean that the one producing it , fighters or strong people would be the richest ?


    So the government decided to implement secondary currency .


    There was even a shop to use the coupons .


    Searching for a while Mike decided to buy a weaker rare skill . After all his 10 coupons couldn''t be able to buy an ultra mighty skill book .


    The skill couldn''t be called weak . However its a defence one .


    Logically one would deem the defense skills as more precious , however the skill is called absolute defense which reduces every damage taken by 8% .


    It sounds amazing , doesn''t it ?


    Comparing it to the other skill books he could buy Mike felt that this absolute defense shouldn''t be priced so low . After all he saw a skill which gave 100 defense permanent selling for 300 coupons !


    After learning it Mike frowned upon his damage output . It should be around 200 per hit with a normal sword . If he''s able to hit weak points it may even rise of 1k or 2k .


    The solution ? Naturally browse in gaia for melee weapons !


    (AN: Gaia is like the internet , you can find everything you need but there are a lot of weird things floating around)


    Two days passed before he found his fated dungeon .


    Lowermost Wrath Pawn (1-144) - Guide By Morose


    Morose :


    Hi Guys ,


    even though this dungeon is popular its quite hard for many to defeat the dungen boss and get the rewards .


    First of all this isn''t a raid dungeon , so the maximum persons joining is 20 .


    Furthermore its advised to bring 15 melee and less than 5 ranged . To say it bluntly , mages with aoe damage are crap , you are in a labyrinth and the spell can massacre your entire party . However its good to have a single mages in case of emergency , rest should be single damage dealers .


    The rest should be easy , kite the groups in the floors which are quite big and wide . If there is a hord then use your emergency wizard to throw his spell and everything should be fine .


    Boss should be defeated with extreme care , he is a skeleton knight with a shield , armor and lance .


    He is fighting alone , however is immune against light and most magic so physical damage is the way to go !


    His drops are quite amazing , one of the most precious jewels for wizards drops here . Though its quite rare . Well , since describing them is utter bullshit , i will just post the stats .


    [ Wizards Jewel ]


    [ + 500% Manapool + 500C% Mana Regen]


    [ Lance of Knight ] Weight : 350 kg


    [ 300-3000 Damage ]


    [ Stabbing Speed + 100% ]


    [ 200 Defense Penetration ]


    [ Shield of Knight ] Weight : 2,7 tons


    [ 500 Defense ]


    [ 50k Defense at Block ]


    [ Knights Will : Blockstance with 300k Defense + -2k Recoil ]


    Looking at the weight with pure shock Mike felt that his strength is quite puny .


    Though he would be able to hold the lance with one Hand , he isn''t sure if he could carry the shield with his left arm . After all he could only carry about 1.3k kg with both of this hands . How could he lift the double amount with only one hand ?


    However he suddenly remembered one of the Wolf sets traits , able to carry heavier weapons !


    Smiling Mike searched a group for Lowermost Wrath Pawn , because of him not being a newbie he soon found a group with 2 tanks , 11 warriors , 2 melee damage dealer , 1 ranged and surprisingly a support .


    After sending an application to the group , which is called Black cat , Mike decided to train a little bit and get used to the battle mode of his equipment .


    At first he believed that equipment would be like normal clothes , he has to wear it . However he soon realized that the equipment kind disappeared if worn in peaceful situations . Naturally he could summon it , but the wolf armor has a wolf head as the helmet , thus Mikes face is covered , only allowing his eyes luriking out from the jaw of the wolf .


    Looking in a mirror Mike could see a man wearing a wolf head , his body wearing a weird fure plate which weighted not less than iron . Teeths of different sizes hand around the necklace of the man .


    The most beautiful thing is a coat made out of white wolf fure hanging behind his shoulders .


    Finishing his admiration he started to do squats , swinging his beginner sword around , as well as punching into the air .


    Soon the reply from Black Cat came back , they approved him and wanted to go into the dungeon pretty soon . The day would be tomorrow .


    Wondering about the fact that there is no test time Mike signed the non-violent treaty and prepared himself for tomorrow .


    Activating the Wolf set he used the dungeon portal in his basement , a banzai for whomever build a portal in this house !


    What greeted him was an empty waiting room with nothing but a light in the middle of the room .


    Sitting on the ground he waited for the members of black cat to appear .


    After a while they appeared , 5 middle aged man , 5 womans who are certainly the wives of the 5 mans and 6 youths or children .


    One of the middle aged man with brown hairs and a brown beard stepped forward while greeting Mike : "Hi , are you ready to clear a dungeon ?"


    Mike just nodded while standing up . Taking out his weapon he gestured that he is ready .


    "I would never believe that our small group would attract a true warrior , he doesn''t talk much . Did he lost his family due an accident ? After all his equipment is quite high . Though i don''t know what set he uses .


    Anna , my wife told me that its irresponsible to invite another member of our member when we have such an good balance nowadays . However , didn''t i got a helping hand when i was in need ? After all i swore to myself to be a litte bit like commander Hilkens .


    Not only that , i believe that even if he is a leecher who only goes into groups to get free loot , we would be able to endure it for one run and then kick him out .


    Though i don''t know how Marcus or the others would react , after all they take their little boys/daughter with them . Now , that i am able to look at him , i can only say one thing : I don''t regret it . He looks strong and i believe that he has potential . Maybe he can even act as the 3th tank for our group ?


    Meh ... I don''t believe so , but how long has it been ? 20 Years ? No , probably only 18 . Looking at my daughter growing is quite the happy thing , now my only problem is how to find a good husband for her ? I won''t let my daughter marry a good for nothing when she awakened such a rare support ability ! She is the pride of my family . I have to keep an eye on the little boy of Marcus .... he seems to eyeing my precious Tania !


    Well , what am i thinking ? Why do i feel so melancholy ? Doesn''t matter , let''s sweep this dungeon in one go and then go home to eat a meal cooked by my lovely wife Anna !
