Lord Shadow

The zombie is many but they are slow and they do not seem to possess any coordination.

Anyone with a stick could fend them off.

"Be brave" he said to himself.

Even though his hand is sweating because of fear Azief quickly jump onto the debris and arrived near the badger.

The badger breath stinks and each time it exhales, a gust of wind appear from his nostril. One of the smarter badgers is trying to drill its way out of the debris. Another one is wounded heavily, blood seeping from its wound.

You think I"m going to let you do that! Azief thought to himself and he stab the badger and blood flow out from the stab wound.

But it is not enough.

So Azief stabs it again. And again. And again. Repeatedly he stabbed and Azief stamina is draining and finally when his stamina only left with three the shrieking and scrabbling badger died and then a light shone down on him.

YOU HAVE ADVANCED TO LEVEL 05. YOU HAVE EARNED 6 STATS POINTS.

3 level up! This badger gives a lot of experiences. He smiles in satisfaction

"Hu. Hu" Azief is taking his breath. It takes almost all of his stamina to just kill one badger. And another badger is beginning to dig.

Not one of these badgers can be allowed to escape. If not the consequences will be disastrous. In Azief mind, a badger card appears.

THE STRONG FIST BADGER.

A skill book appears and golden coins are all around the badger corpse. Quickly Azief takes it all and put it in his pocket.

The book is small so he just put it in the pocket.

"All to stamina" Azief said and he feel his body is getting rejuvenated.

Then he jumped to the part of the debris and stab quickly on the back of the head of the badger.

CRITICAL HIT: DOUBLE DAMAGE

Oh, so like a game there is also critical hit. Smiling now knowing that the badger neck area is critical point, Azief keep stabbing it and blood flowed around it while the badger is struggling to get out.

And after another ten strikes to its neck, it died with a whimper. This time Azief still have 8 stamina.

This time a skill book appears with the golden coin.

"Another skill book. What a bountiful beast you are." He exclaimed

YOU HAVE ADVANCED TO LEVEL 08. YOU HAVE EARNED 6 STATS POINTS.

Another three level up. In normal circ.u.mstances, he understands to kill these badgers might be an impossibility at his current level and he was doomed to die.

After all it takes more than ten strikes to make one badger fall to ground. He needed to have greater strength and a lot of agility if he was fighting these badgers in a fair ground.

Who would have thought he would encounter such luck! Trapped under the debris with nowhere to go while he repeatedly stabs the badger neck area.

Now only one left, this one badger is badly injured, one of its claws was broken. Azief was about to stab its neck when he remembered something.

Smiling he then said.

"All 6 to Spirit." His body is full with vigor and power course through his vein, his eyes becomes clearer.

Then he quickly activated the Beast Tamer skills. The information flowed into Azief mind and he then understand what he need to do.

He approached the wounded badger and touches the badger and a seal appear on the badger forehead.

The seal was shaped like an Orb. Then a voice enters his ears.

YOU HAVE USED THE BEAST TAMER SKILL. ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO USE IT ON THIS BEAST?

"Yes" Azief reply.

Then the beast turned into an orb of light and a portal open and its shot through inside the portal.

TAMING TIME: TWO WEEKS.

What! Seeing this Azief is clearly shocked. Two weeks! It requires 10 SP every hour and it will drain Azief SP right now.

Now Azief SP is 7.

Another hour it will drain another 10.Of course at that time his SP will rejuvenate only to then supplement the taming process but then that means for two weeks he would not be able to use his SP for anything other than taming the badger.

He was about to curse but then he remembered.

The badger is surely strong that is why the waiting time is long. He also remembers the scene where the badger is destroying the structure.

Having a beast like that under his commands he will at least be save from anything weaker than the badger.

It surely will help his survival in this new world.

When the information flowed inside his mind he also understands how beast taming works.

If the beast is stronger than you, beast taming will not work. But then how is he able to make that badger obey him to enter the Beast Portal?

Because at that time the badger is weaker than him, wounded, it will is low due to seeing its comrade dies and trapped under the debris.

It is kind of like Pokemon and the seal is like pokeb.a.l.l.s. If the Pokemon is weak after fighting it, touching it the seals will appear if they are weaker than you.

If not they will struggle and be release from the taming processes.

While Azief was thinking of this he doesn"t notice a zombie has managed to crawls out the debris and heading slowly to him.

The zombie is crawling since his lower body has been crushed leaving only his upper body dragging his innards

"Uargh" a zombie appears while groaning like zombies do, grabbing Azief ankle when it saw the human standing on top off the debris, trying to eat him.

Azief who is startle by this sudden touching (he really doesn"t like to be touch without proper warning) began saying curse word,

"f.u.c.k! What the h.e.l.l! f.u.c.k!" as he kicks the half body zombie head.

And the zombie hand release its grip from Azief ankle, tooth dribble out from his mouth, his jaw dislocated, black blood mixed with red blood flowed from the zombie jaw..

"f.u.c.k, that zombie humiliates me." Azief using the dagger stab the zombie head with frustration and humiliation.

And this time a ring appear and the golden coins. He quickly grabbed it and was about to examine it when he notices the hundreds of zombie is crawling out.

"This stiff. Oh f.u.c.k! More of them stiff."

He look at the incoming horde. He then takes a deep breath and smile coldly, a hint of greed in his eyes.

"Ok. No pain no gain. Only the strong survives the weak perish." he then said smiling.

He out of everyone understands these rules better than anyone, and quickly accepted the rules of this new world.

It is kind of his ability to adapt to situations like these mostly because it is the kind of situations he has been dreaming of.

Ok, maybe not the people turning to zombie part, or the giant beast eating people, but he did fantasize living in a kind of game world, or fantasy world and who wouldn"t?

At least it is more interesting than the world he is living now.

Working hard doesn"t guaranteed that you"re going to have a great life, it guarantees you to be a worker of some crazed millionaire or a greedy entrepreneur disguised as a great philanthropist when all the businessman only wanted is the tax break when throwing their towel onto the ring of charity.

At least now, he gets the reward according to his effort. It still requires some luck too.

"You"re all going to die…..again" He said smiling coldly to the crawling zombies coming out of the debris.

And he began his killing spree. Having only Half of a body and slow, the zombie is just a fish getting ready to be chopped.

Azief stab all the zombies head. The baby zombies, the woman zombies, the granny zombies, the MILF zombies, the gla.s.ses zombies, he saw them as nothing more than corpses.

Most people wouldn"t have his heart to deal killing a baby. Even though it is a zombie it still looks like a baby even though there is a large chunk of meat missing from the baby arms.

But Azief?

He just kicks the baby zombie head like striking a football and the head splattered into droplets of red liquid.

He stomp, kick, punch, stab while dodging the blood and the bites. He knows now if you are bitten you will become one of them but he doesn"t know about the blood effect so he takes precaution not to get any on him.

Of course there are some splatter drops on him but at least he was not drenched in it.

His luck is truly amazing. Just a minute ago he was praying and accepting his death, now he is diligently stabbing zombie head.

YOU HAVE ADVANCED TO LEVEL 09. YOU HAVE EARNED 2 STATS POINTS.

This time Azief decided to reinforce his agility.

"All to agility." He needs to be faster, both in reaction and before the other zombies nearby is alerted to his killing spree.

And he feels his feet are getting faster and lighter. Then he realizes something else. His stamina is also steadily declining.

But sometimes these zombies dropped some vial like gla.s.s. Killing about 5 of them Azief realizes something after drinking the vials.

The blue vials restore his stamina, the red one his vitality. Right now he already has 2 blue vials.

He doesn"t have time to check its information but he understand the concept. Potions. He works in a cyber café how could he of all people does not understand potions?

Playing Skyrim, Oblivion and fantasy genre adventure games, potions is one of the most integral parts of any quest.

It restores health, grant strength and many other supportive functions. It is like a doctor in a box…or vials…or a case in gla.s.s, depending on the game.

And Azief keep stabbing all those poor zombies stuck under the debris.

Azief would find a hole and when he hears the groaning sound he would target that area finding the right moment to stab the zombie head.

Each strikes at the head gives double damage and mostly they die in the first stab though there are some that is more resilient than others and need multiple stabbing.

This time Azief don"t have time to check any of the items.

He just put it inside his pocket. He also grab a kindergartener bag from one of the child zombie in which he crush the head with his dagger.

Putting it around his bag he uses it to store his loot.

YOU HAVE ADVANCED TO LEVEL 10. YOU HAVE EARNED 2 STATS POINTS.

YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO CHANGE CLa.s.s RIGHT NOW. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO GO TO SAFE ZONE BEFORE CHANGING CLa.s.s.

RIGHT NOW YOU ARE IN THE RED ZONE. FIND A SAFE PLACE FOR YOU TO CHANGE CLa.s.s AND ACTIVATES THE CLa.s.s FUNCTION.

Cla.s.s change! Azief screamed in his mind. Of course he can change cla.s.s. This is beginning to feel more and more like a game.

Then he hears the groaning and turn to face his back behind.

His hand holding his dagger while looking at the dozens more zombies near him and he said. He knows his dagger could not last longer.

And seeing the crawling zombies the only thing he could say was.

"Ah, s.h.i.+t!"
