《PANDEMONIUM OF THE NEW WORLD ~The Tale of the Wanderer’s Survival~》 [Volume 1]: Prologue ¡°Haaa~¡­¡± In the mouth of a cave, the boy is signing with an exhausted look ¡°As expected I can¡¯t find the |Crimson Rose|¡±(Young man) He muttered, while thinking of the material |Crimson Rose| that is famous for not only its beautiful color but also its properties as an all-purpose crafting material ¡°Well at least I got a lot of |Silver Thread| which is a good thing¡±(Young man) He said. The boy looks around 14-15 years old with a black hair which is common for a Japanese, the only thing that makes him differ is his eyes which is an almost transparent ash color that looks like a cloud. The boy, Hinatsuki Maki, using his avatar in the VR game [Lost Haven], {Sen} is walking towards the town through the way he found After he arrived, In the town he went to a shop and sold the things he found at the cave and leave ¡°Sen!¡±(???) ¡°Mh?¡±(Maki/Sen) with a carefree-like sound a boy around the same age as Maki, walks toward his direction ¡°Oh, Tsukasa¡±(Maki) ¡°I told you to call me {Bard} when we¡¯re in the game!¡±(Tsukasa/Bard) ¡°Ah, I forgot¡±(Maki) ¡°Haaa¡­Nevermind that, Please help me with something¡±(Tsukasa) The boy signing in front of Maki, Nagasaki Tsukasa, is a childhood friend of Maki in reality, but now they are in a little distance away from each other because Maki had to move before ¡°Sure, as long as its within my capabilities¡±(Maki) ¡°Thanks! Lets meet in real so that I could tell you my request¡±(Tsukasa) ¡°Then lets meet at the old place?¡±(Maki) ¡°Okay , then I¡¯m going, ¡±(Tsukasa) ¡°See you later¡±(Maki) As their conversation ended, Tsukasa was covered with light and logged out from the game, ¡°Then I¡¯ll also log out then¡±(Maki) Then he muttered, , and leave the game ??????????????????????????????? After he logged out his sight turn towards the ceiling ¡°I¡¯m back, huh¡± He then stand up from his bed and went straight to take bath and leave his apartment room, then he headed straight to the meeting place. As he walked out he noticed that the sky that is now colored in many colors from red, green, yellow, purple, but at the center of the aurora is a color most common to be seen, grey Maki felt a bad premonition as he stared at the aurora. He distracted himself while he headed straight to their meeting place which is a cafe near the school that he and Tsukasa goes to ¡°Tsukasa should be at the cafe now, better hur-¡°(Maki) ________________________________________ [Warning!] A dimensional rift has been created and two dimensions are being merged please all beings prepare for there is a possibility of being erased Countdown until The Merge is complete: 02:29:53 Cause of erasure : Exposure to the Dimensional Aurora Surge when the countdown reach 00:00:00 Prevention method : Stay in a place not exposed in the sky (inside buildings) ________________________________________ A window suddenly appeared in front of Maki. He was shocked and rubbed his eyes to confirm if he is just seeing things. But anxious as he realized that it was not an illusion ¡°What¡¯s happening? Why is such a thing¡­Better get to Tsukasa¡±(Maki) Though the boy can¡¯t express his emotions due to unknown reasons, he clearly thought of his friend¡¯s safety making him worried due to his own confusion about the window that appeared out of nowhere ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ¡°Hah..hah¡­hah¡± Maki, while gasping, looked at the cafe¡¯s door which is made from a century old oak wood that gives a scent of antiquity and calmness Maki walked inside the door and saw the shop¡¯s interior giving a calming and soothing atmosphere. An old man, dressed in a suit made to look both like a butler and a bartender, called Maki ¡°Oh welcome Maki-kun, its been a while¡±(old man) ¡°Hello Kamui-san, um is Tsukasa already at the usual spot?¡±(Maki) ¡°His already there would youuu take the usual?¡±(Kamui) ¡°Yes please¡±(Maki) The spot where the old man, Kamui pointed at was the table at corner of the room where there is a window showing a huge tree outside ¡°Maki, over here~¡± There he saw a boy same age as him , wearing a black sweater with brown lines at its shoulders, calling him while giving a cheerful face ¡°Tsukasa don¡¯t just suddenly jump at me¡±(Maki) There Maki talked with his friend, Nagasaki Tsukasa about what he was anxious about which is the window ¡°Did you also see a window?¡±(Maki) The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.¡°Window? You mean this?(Tsukasa) ¡°You¡­just realized it now?¡±(Maki) Giving an angry aura at Tsukasa, whom is sweating a lot, pressure to make sure that his friend is not lying ¡°Well¡­ you see I was distracted by the aurora and got excited to make you see it¡± ¡°Just read the window for now to make sure I¡¯m not the only one seeing things¡±(Maki) ¡°Sure!¡±(Tsukasa) As his friend read through the warning ________________________________________ [Warning!] Attention to all beings there will be some individuals that will be merged with other beings only in physical form making them be Elves, Beast People, Undead, also Dragons and other Mana Creatures Will be applied after The Merge Countdown until The Merge is complete: 01:24:17 ________________________________________ ¡°What the¡­¡±(Maki) Looking at the window, though expressionless, Maki still couldn¡¯t believe that some people will turn into those kind of fantasy beings. Even his friend is showing an anxious face ¡°Hey Maki somehow I feel something bad is coming¡±(Tsukasa) ¡°We have to prepare ourselves if that something will come¡­ Did you bring your shinai? ¡°(Maki) ¡°Its here¡­¡±(Tsukasa) Pointing at the wrapped bamboo stick near their table. As Maki said, both of them prepared themselves, Tsukasa picking his shinai while Maki took out a pair of black gloves which he modified as a self-defense weapon just in case of him being caught up with deliquents near his part-time job ¡°You really liked that huh, your ¡­ From what I remember that was the first successful handicraft you made when we we¡¯re in middle school¡±(Tsukasa) Maki nodded as he wear his gloves though it wasn¡¯t actually a weapon since it was actually just that he really liked to wear it whenever he would get into fights during his working shift ¡°You ready now?¡±(Maki) ¡°Yes, why don¡¯t we go to the convenience store to buy some drinks and snack while we wait for this countdown?¡±(Tsukasa) Dumbfounded by the suggestion given by Tsukasa. Maki signed for the airheaded friend of his while he agreed ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ¡°Maki isn¡¯t that fidgeting girl Tsukishima Mana?¡±(Tsukasa) Pointing at the silver-haired girl fidgeting near the convenience store, the two youth close in on the maiden while Tsukasa called over her ¡°Tsukishima-san, is something wrong?¡±(Tsukasa) The girl, Tsukishima Mana was known in their class as the ¡°Rabbit Maiden¡± due to her behavior when she is conversing with people and her silver hair. Everytime she talked she would always show her honest feelings giving out a cheerful smile when happy and when she feels sad or depressed she would droop all day like lonely rabbit, though she is still a little bit airheaded when it comes to the subject of her own Romance ¡°Oh, Hinatsuki-kun, Nagasaki-kun hello¡±(Mana) ¡°Hello Tsukishima-san, please just call me Maki instead of my last name¡±(Maki) ¡°Call me also by my first name then, okay Maki-kun?~¡±(Mana) ¡°Sure, Mana-san¡±(Maki) ¡°Then call me by my first name to Mana-chan~~¡±(Tsukasa) ¡°*giggle* okay Tsukasa-kun¡±(Mana) The two laugh until Maki repeated the question he gave to Mana earlier, ¡°Mana-san, what we¡¯re you fidgeting for earlier?¡±(Maki) ¡°Umm¡­Its just that I¡¯m anxious of what is happening¡­ everyone is so enchanted by the aurora that they didn¡¯t even notice this things appearing out of nowhere¡±(Mana) ¡°You too, i see we¡¯re headed to the convenience store, to buy some things while we wait for this countdown to finish¡±(Maki) ¡°I¡¯m glad, that you guys also noticed it¡­ the others that saw this windows appearing thought it was only an illusion, still it gave me a bad feeling like a disaster was about to be unfold¡±(Mana) ¡°Lets go inside then we¡¯ll try to prepare ourselves if it would really be something bad¡±(Maki) Suggested by Maki as the three went inside the convenience store buying some snacks and other items¡­ ________________________________________ Countdown until The Merge is Complete: 00:59:20

Chapter 1: Start Of Disaster Chapter 1: Start of Disaster "Maki, we only have one hour left"(Tsukasa) "Let''s go then, Mana-san! We''re going"(Maki) Calling out to the girl whom is busy choosing between some snacks. The girl replied in a cheerful voice contrary to what is happening outside "Okay!"(Mana) The three youth went to pay in the cashier then they head outside. Not knowing where to go next, they discussed on where they would make their own base "Where will we go next?"(Mana) Mana asked as she was fidgeting which clearly states her anxiousness. The two boys pondered for a moment then at the same time gave their suggestion ""How about the old house?""(Maki/Tsukasa) "Old House?"(Mana) "Mana-san, have you ever noticed the old European Building near the school?"(Maki) Maki asked as he was wondering why Mana doesn''t know about it only to be puzzled by her answer "Oh you mean Atelier Orbis Manor?"(Mana) "Atelier Orb-what?"(Tsukasa) Now it was the two who was puzzled "It is a Dorm for High School students, College students, and some office workers both male and female though we''re only seven people right now"(Mana) The two guys looked at each other before questioning her ""Your living there!?""(Maki/Tsukasa) "Mm...You see my parents are always overseas due to their work as archaeologist, and since I''m the only child it was decided that I will be living in a Dormitory near the school"(Mana) She stated while they''re heading towards the Dorm where she lives. They run for they only have an hour left, they passed through some people, whom are still looking towards the sky watching the aurora, while most have already noticed the situation as they look at the window floating in front of them and was followed by screams and shrieks, filling the streets with chaos as they run towards shelters, houses, and other buildings that can shade them while they panickedly waited for the countdown to finish The three continued to run until they stopped in front of a building made of what looks like an antique wood and Moss-covered stone walls, combined with the aurora that was currently painting the sky, the boys gasped out of admiration but quickly snapped out of it as they followed Mana inside the house "I''m Home"(Mana) ""Sorry for intruding...""(Maki/Tsukasa) Contrary to to the exterior of the house, its interior looks completely the same with Modern Japanese houses. They looked inside is a woman, whom lokoed at them as if they we''re thieves that trespassed her house, while pointing a knife towards them "Minase-san! Its me Mana!"(Mana) Mana shouted at the woman, trying to convince her to drop the kitchen knife that she was holding. She looked at Mana for a few seconds then slowly she put down the knife as she looked at Tsukasa and Maki, while she cautiously walked towards them Mana seeing this slowly felt relieved, as she introduced the two boys with her "Minase-san, this red-haired boy is Tsukasa-kun and the other one is Maki-kun, they are my classmates"(Mana) As she presented the two whom are nervous due to being glared at by the woman. The two boys nervously introduced themselves "H-hello, I''m Nagasaki Tsukasa"(Tsukasa) "I''m Hinatsuki Maki"(Maki) "Oh, I''m... uh I''m Tachigawa Minase, Sorry for glaring at you Hinatsuki-kun, Nagasaki-kun"(Minase) "Um, n-no its f-fine Tachigawa-san"(Tsukasa) "We don''t mind it, after all the outside right now is in chaos"(Maki) The other two, Mana and Tsukasa nodded at what Maki stated, while Minase is a bit perplexed due to her only hearing the screams and shrieks that was coming from outside the house ****************************************************************************************************** "Your the only one here right now, Tachigawa-san?"(Tsukasa) Tsukasa, who finally recovered from his nervousness earlier, Minase as he noticed that there are no other people inside the house. Minase answered Tsukasa with a worried tone "Yes, the others went outside before this things happened"(Minase) "I see"(Maki) The gloomy atmosphere around them change when a window appeared which made the three''s (Minase''s, Mana''s, and Tsukasa''s) face grimaced while Maki is letting out a horrified aura, as they read the window If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

While Maki read it, Tsukasa suddenly shouted "Get away from the windows now!"(Tsukasa) A flash of light peeked out of the windows, as they taked cover not to be exposed to the light. After they tooked cover the four blacked out *************************************************************************************************** POV: Maki What happened? Why is it dark? Where am I? Wait where is Tsukasa and the others I have to find them but where is this? *ting

What the Heck!? 0.004% for the Highest Rank!? Meh, Sounds fair enough, Let''s just start the lottery I hope I could at least get Rank A or S
Skill has been chosen
Congratulations! You received Rank A Skill - [Disassemble] [Disassemble](Passive/Active) - changes items according to their type. When used against Beings and Monsters they will be disintegrated into particles and leave one or more items. Plant-type items will turn into their origin, [Seeds].

Congratulations! You have received a Rank A skill and will now be set as your Main Skill Note: This Skill cannot be removed
You have 15 minutes left before you return We will answer some questions concerning the system while you wait
Well sure its better to know more before going then "What are Main Skills?"(Maki)
Main Skills are skills that has an 85-100% compatibility with the user A user can freely set their Main Skill through the "System Menu" that can be found in "Safe Points"
So its like a talent or Signature Move found in MMORPG and other types of games, then how come my Skill can''t be change? "Why is my Skill, [Disassemble], cannot be changed?"(Maki)
There are skills which cannot be changed an example of this skills are your [Disassemble] skill, the reason this skills cannot be removed is because they are implemented to the system directly or affect the body of the user itself permanently
So thats why... How can it affect the system or my body. I try to check on it later on when I get back "Then what are the "Safe Points" which can be found at some places?"(Maki)
Safe Points are areas that prevent monsters upto Rank A Monsters not capable enough are unable to enter these safe points so it is more important for Beings to enter the safe points to rest
Which means that it is a resting point where we can safely heal ourselves or prepare our items themselves "How can we open or operate the System Menu?"(Maki)
The System Menu can be opened or operated through thought or Oral command Please try to say or think "System Menu" and the menu should appear
Hmmm.... well I''ll try all right, System Menu
Character InfoSkillsInventoryGroup
It really works like a Menu, it really feels like this is becoming more and more of a game huh?
You will now be returned to your previous location Good Luck
"Wai-" *********************************************************** ~~~Third Person~~~ Particles of light have gathered in the living room as Maki and the others have regained their consciousness feeling lethargic "Ugh...are you guys all right?"(Tsukasa) "I''m fine Nagasaki-kun, just need to breathe"(Minase) "I''m just feeling a slight dizziness"(Mana) "I''m fine more importantly look outside the window"(Maki) The three moved towards the window where Maki is, and found that the aurora disappeared replaced with monsters along with some people wearing armors and weapons fighting the said monster while retreating to one of the mansions near the place where Maki and the others are, there are people with cat ears or pointy ears like the elves found in games and fictions Maki noticed one of them, all alone run towards the Manor as it successfully escaped from the monster group, the said person located the gate and immediately closed and locked it. After it catch its breath it headed straight to the door of the manor When Minase saw that it was about to enter the manor she and Tsukasa went to the doorway and prepared themselves. Minase gripping the kitchen knife tightly while Tsukasa prepared his shinai while the other Maki and Mana are there observing the situation cautiously *Creak* The door opened slowly and tension inside the room raised. Then the person in question entered the room, when she noticed the four she immediately took a combat stance. The four gasped as they saw the persons appearance they knew it is a female due to her characteristics, Green eyes that gives you the illusion of a forest, black hair with white and blue strands as if it was made by the night sky, though she is flat her body in overall shows that she is like Forest looming under the night sky "Who are you!?-"(???) The Girl shouted at the group while she gripped her weapon, a dagger with a clear blue color making it look like its blade was made of glass and its hilt made of sapphire. The four regained their composure when she shouted at them Unexpectedly Mana stepped in, though shaking, nervously answered the girl back "I-i a-am T-Tsukishima Mana!"(Mana) "I see, can you guys tell me wher-"(???) "Why don''t you tell us your name too, Miss?"(Tsukasa) As the girl was about to ask a question, Tsukasa took it as an oppurtunity to know the girl, despite him still taking up a combat stance "I am Rivielle Gariolle, an Assassin from the kingdom of Silvarium"(Rivielle) Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. "Assassi-"(Minase) When they heard her introduction Maki and the group raised their guards, while Mana immediately hide behind Maki while shaking. Rivielle seeing their state calmly put aside her dagger to calm them, in turn asking the names of the other three. The group signed in relief and put aside their weapons, while they answer her vigilantly "Nagasaki Tsukasa"(Tsukasa) "Tachigawa Minase"(Minase) "Hinatsuki Maki"(Maki) Rivielle as she heard their names went deep in thought, then look at the others "Am I in the East?, They shouldn''t have this kind of buildings, Hey Is this country the East?"(Rivielle) The others look at each other trying to understand the question of Rivielle. "If look at the map yes this country is in the East but the name of the country your in is called Japan"(Maki) "Japan,japan,japan"(Rivielle) Repeating the country''s name, Rivielle was again deep in thought *GWRAAAHHHHH* Suddenly a loud roar revebrated into the room. Curious Minase look out at the window near her "Guys there is a monster trying to break the gate!"(Minase) When they heard what Minase saw they went outside to see the monster except for Mana who only stayed near the door afraid to see the monster. Maki picked up a thin metal pipe that was near the door gripping it tightly while taking a Bojutsu stance, while Minase was near Mana gripping the Kitchen Knife tightly, Tsukasa side by side with Maki taking an Iai stance. Rivielle was in front of them gracefully pulling out her dagger at the same time taking her combat stance, while looking at the monster and the others In front of them was a monster with the body of gorilla, covered in grey hair,that had a lion''s head, at its forehead is another eye different from the other two, as it glows a raging yellow as it look at the people at the back of the gate "Wha-what kind of monster is that!?"(Minase) "That is Culpa Leo, a monster created from the lingering mana of a Mythical Beast specifically the Lion and Ape types"(Rivielle) "Okay~ that look is very weird but still its scary"(Tsukasa) "Prepare yourselves it going to charge through the gate!"(Maki) *GWRRAAAAHHHH* The Culpa Leo roared and charged straight through the gate, as Rivielle explained the monster while Tsukasa prepared himself as he complained and joke about the appearance of the Monster. The group concentrated when the monster broke the gate and headed straight through them The monster let out a punch at Rivielle, which she gracefully evaded by spinning to the left, while she slice through its Iron-like skin. She followed through a second attack by kicking the ground cutting to the left side of the monster. The monster roared as it was annoyed that it can''t hit Rivielle. Tsukasa along with Maki rushed in front of the monster. Tsukasa hit the left side of the monster''s face, while Maki thrust through the monster''s throat, as the monster coughed out blood "Can you guys hold it for a bit? I''m just going try something"(Rivielle) "Oh come on how can we even hold him with this stuff, plus-"(Tsukasa) "Tsukasa, Get Down"(Maki) Tsukasa is giving a complain to Rivielle just as Maki warned him since the monster was about to give him a jab. When Tsukasa ducked, Maki went behind and sent a powerful bash on its head, which stunned it a little "HHAAAAHHH!"(Minase) Minase whom had been shaken up by the battle shouted with vigor, sprinted to the monster''s back and stab it. The monster noticed her and was about to send her with a punch when a vase was thrown to its head. It turn its head to where the vase came from, which is Mana making her shiver when she noticed her action. The monster roared as it was annoyed by the attacks coming from Maki and Tsukasa interrupting it from retaliating Minase''s and Mana''s attacks "Get away from it now!"(Rivielle) Rivielle gave them a signal to get away from the Culpa Leo. They immediately get away from it and look at Rivielle or more specifically at her dagger which shines in an icy blue as she dashed through the monster "<>"(Rivielle) As she muttered those words she slashed through the monsters body at a speed that creates afterimages. Every time she moved and attack around the monster, Cuts appeared on its skin along with some ice preventing its wounds from closing. After the nth cut Rivielle backed away breathing heavily. The Culpa Leo noticing the exhausted Rivielle took the oppurtunity to kill her along with it When the the monster''s hand was about to reach and crush Rivielle''s head, Maki interfered by giving an upwards strike to its hand following it with a numerous strikes and thrust to the cuts, made by Rivielle''s previous barrage of slashes and cuts, making it worse as the monster was slowly dying. Seeing this Maki finished it by jumping and giving a thrust to the Cupla''s third eye making it howl in pain as it slowly fell down, it life disappearing. The group fell down as they let out a sign of relief. The corpse turned into particles of light startling the others, as it leave a large fur, meat, and a gemstone of sorts with a black mark in the middle making it look like an eye While the others are resting Maki picked the items from the Cupla Leo, after picking everything a giant shadow passed by making the others stiffen as they look at the source making them sweat. At the sky a Giant green eagle flying majestically "Get back inside!!!"(Rivielle) The group hearing Rivielle run to the mansion despite their exhausted body just to get away from the eagle''s sight. As they entered Tsukasa immediately closed the door and fell down from further moving his tired body the group at the same time followed from collapsing due to exhaustion Chapter 3: Disaster Loot Rewards "What..(hah)....the..F*ck...was that!?"(Tsukasa) Tsukasa exclaimed loudly remembering the Green bird that they saw earlier as he and the others are breathing heavily "That..(hah)was...a Breeze eagle...a bird-type monster that can use wind magic"(Rivielle) "Ma..(huff)gic?"(Mana) Hearing the details about the bird they saw, Minase felt hopeless while Mana was curious about magic that she heard from Rivielle. Maki stood up and went to the living room of the manor closing all windows except for the one near the table and put down the things they picked up from the Culpa Leo. The others followed suit as Mana began to inquire from Rivielle about Magic that she heard "Magic? What about magic?"(Rivielle) "I mean what did you mean about the bird from earlier using magic?"(Mana) Hearing this the others got curious from just hearing the word magic, as they look at Rivielle "Well a Breeze eagle is capable of using wind magic though it can only be up to intermediate level since it is monster that was born from Wind-type Plures"(Rivielle) "Plures"(Minase) Minase asked joining on to the inquiry "Plures or in other words magic power is as it entails, a power needed to use magic? Wait why are you asking me about this? This should be common knowledge to people, you guys look like your foreign about this knowledge itself "(Rivielle) Rivielle ask as she got annoyed from the questioning and gave a suspecting gaze at the four "Well we-"(Tsukasa) "We don''t know about magic till you spoke of it, since our world don''t have magic in the first place, but now as from what I saw earlier from the fight you used magic against that monster, right?"(Maki) "Yes it is certainly magic, Wait did you mean you guys don''t have magic up until now!?"(Rivielle) Rivielle exclaimed noting what she heard from Maki about them not knowing magic before "Well you see Rivielle-san, Magic itself doesn''t exist in our world up until now"(Mana) Mana spoke up to Rivielle confirming her suspicion of the others "Well if its as you say then how come you guys-.....Nothing, nevermind, let''s just see what are the things we picked up from the Culpa Leo, now that i''ve thought about it a monsters corpse shouldn''t disappear like that mind explaining"(Rivielle) Rivielle ask finding it strange for a monster to disappear like that without using magic or something. Maki spoke up "It''s probably because of my skill"(Maki) "Skill?"(Mana,Tsukasa,Rivielle,Minase) "I mean you guys didn''t you guys have to choose something when we blanked out from earlier"(Maki) "Now that I think about it"(Mana) "We did have to choose something when we blanked out"(Tsukasa) "I think the choices we''re Skills, Equipments, or Classes"(Minase) "Yes those are the choices and I choose Skills, which what happened earlier"(Maki) Maki reassuring them about it. He then turn towards the others to question them of their choices "Speaking of that, What did you guys choose?"(Maki) "From what I remember I choose, I think Its an equipment"(Tsukasa) "Cla...ss.."(Mana) "Skills"(Minase) "......"(Rivielle) Rivielle was silently hearing the others as she judge it as an important information about them. Maki then asked if they remember what they got from those choices "I don''t know about it since It didn''t show what it is but all I remember is that its a Soulbound-type weapon"(Tsukasa) "I don''t know where to look for it"(Mana) "The skill I got was called [Danger Alert] a rank B passive skill"(Minase) "Soul...bound......Ra..nk.....B"(Rivielle) Maki looked at Rivielle whom is muttering what she heard as if speaking sutra, but then turned back to Mana "Mana-san don''t you know how to open the System Menu?"(Maki) "System Menu?"(Mana) Mana asked back at Maki not knowing about it while tilting her head cutely, HOW CUTE!!! Maki inwardly exclaimed as he answer Mana''s question "Just say or Think System Menu it should open then tap the Character info you should be able to see your class there"(Maki) "Ah there it is, It says here the class I got was [Grand Magus]"(Mana) "GRAND MAGUS!!!"(Rivielle) Everyone in the room look at Rivielle due to her sudden outburst. Realizing her action she back away playing with her fingers while looking embarassed "Rivielle-san, what do you know about this class?"(Maki) Rivielle hesitated to answer the question of the guy in front of her, but gave up and just positioned herself to answer his question "[Grand Magus] class is a very rare class which had the ability to use or manipulate all of the elements except Space, Void, and Time. Since the chances of having a mage-type class is only 3 out of 10, then am elemental saint-type is about 5 out of 300 mages, then [Grand Magus] is about 1 out of 400,000 elemental saints"(Rivielle) Everyone fell silent listening to this, trying to process this information then again Rivielle spoke up "Soulbound weapons that your friend Tsukasa said that he had are also very rare since most of Soulbound weapons are created by Rank SS-Rank SSS Magic-type Crafters which are mostly treated as like finding treasures in a desert. Soulbound weapons are mainly giving strength to its owner by groming alongside them"(Rivielle) "Plus, Rank B skills are rare though not as rare as a soulbound weapon or a Grand Magus, is still rare and strong enough to defeat a Rank A monster"(Rivielle) "Oh and also the Culpa Leo that we killed earlier was Rank E"(Rivielle) The others still silent continued to process the information given to them. Maki was thinking to say that he had a Rank A skill.The first to return to reality was Tsukasa "So that means that my weapon is OP, yes!!! Though not as OP as Mana-tan~ plus its not yet strong enough like me(sigh)"(Tsukasa) "Eh?EH!?"(Mana) "(Sigh)"(Minase) "....."(Maki) "Now that I''ve thought about it what rank was your skill Maki?"(Tsukasa) Everyone looked at Maki as Tsukasa asked about his skill ".....Rank A...."(Maki) ".......WHAT!!!!!"(Others) "Its a passive/active skill called [Disassemble], it is a skill which makes anything monster or complex items turn into items which means drops except The items I would really get depends on the luck I have which is a disadvantage when I want to get a material from a unique variants or those artifact-type items"(Maki) Everyone looked dumbfounded at first but then calmed down hearing the demerit of the skill. Feeling a bit annoyed Maki urged the others to just check out the items from the Culpa Leo "Let''s just look at the items"(Maki) The other immediately gathered to the table, and looked at the items, then Tsukasa went near Maki as he whispered "Maki I just noticed that the system is somehow the same with [LOST HAVEN]"(Tsukasa) "!?"(Maki) "Try looking at your Character Info and the System Menu they are mostly the same"(Tsukasa) Hearing this Maki checked his character info and was shocked to see about what Tsukasa said since the system IS the same with mentioned VR game that they played before

"....."(Everyone) "...?..."(Rivielle) The others fell silent seeing the items'' description in front of them. They nod and let Maki put the items to his Inventory except for the fang. "So you guys really have an Inventory"(Rivielle) The others look towards Rivielle due to her statement as they find it strange for they all have Inventories due to the system. "Don''t tell me Inventory is also rare?"(Tsukasa) "Nope, it is only about 4 out 10 people can use it"(Rivielle) "Heh"(Minase) While the others were talking about Inventory, Maki along with Mana both look for a grinding stone and and a duct tape, as he was planning to make the metal pipe from before and the fang that they got into a makeshift spear expecting to gain a crafting skill and to improve their combat ability. As they were looking for the items needed, Maki asked Mana about her Character info "Sure but how can I show it to you"(Mana) "Just say Character info, Share Maki"(Maki) "Okay then "(Mana) When she finished saying the command a window appeared in front of Maki, he then inspected the window

"Hmmm, it truly is a very strong class and it also suits you Mana-san, oh found it"(Maki) Maki praises Mana while picking up the Duct tape that he found, Mana blushed at the sight of the- most-of-the-time-emotionless Maki smile while she was holding a grinding stone she found in a cabinet. She then snapped out of it when she realized the instruction from Maki earlier "Maki-kun, how come you know about this commands about the System Menu?"(Mana) "Ah, you see most of the Menu was the same with the VR game [LOST HAVEN] that me and Tsukasa always play before this kind of things happened"(Maki) "Oh, I see, wait you mean you guys are one of the players of [LOST HAVEN]!!!"(Mana) "Yes, we were just lucky to be one of the chosen players really"(Maki) Remembering about how he got the VR gear for the game which is only given to around 100,000 players around the world which was sponsored by the Globally known company, that rivals even the [*ONY] and the [E* Games], [Shinsou Games]. Maki gave a shrug as he was beginning to grind the fang "You guys are really lucky to get one though that won''t be of use now due to the current world now wouldn''t it?"(Mana) Maki stopped grinding then faced towards Mana then continued to work on grinding "Sure it won''t be of use now but due to how the system works almost the same with game we now somehow know the things needed to do so it''s now entirely useless since we got to know more about the system thanks to it"(Maki) As they finish talking, they noticed that they we''re being stared at by the others. Mana blushed since she was not used to being stared at so intensely, seeing that the others we''re smirking at them "Oh, what are you making Maki?"(Tsukasa) Tsukasa asked Maki, giving Mana support to get out of the situation, which only make her face turn into a deeper shade of red as she walked toward her fellow girls "I''m planning on making a makeshift spear"(Maki) "Then we''ll just rest there, we''re so exhausted from earlier so just warn us if something happens, OK?"(Tsukasa) "Mm...."(Maki) Maki nodded and continued to grind the fang, after he grinding he stopped and went towards the others to rest ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Orphellia here desu~ I have fixed most of the chapters but I''m lazy to fix some of them so please bear with it Please give some ideas in how to improve my story by commenting I''ll check it out later
