Chapter 57
Jack's expression turned into a smile before he gave a light chuckle.
To Jack, it felt like a joke, for the last few weeks, his life had been turned upside down, he had to fight vampires, he had just luckily managed to survive a deadly encounter with some kind of supernatural cult.
And now he was being threatened by a human.
'I wonder how the human me would have reacted.' Jack thought before he turned around.
The man mugging him tried to stop his movements however it was useless in front of the overwhelming strength difference.
"I told you to not move damn it" The man screamed before using the knife in his hand to stab Jack.
*Shlqick*
"It's not my fault, you moved, it's your fault," The man said as his voice turned more and more agitated.
'He's clearly not in a good state of mind' Jack thought before he grabbed the man's arm which held the knife still piercing into Jacks stomach.
And slowly, he removed it and the knife.
"What, what is this? Let me go you son of a bitch!" The man almost screamed as Jack held his hand, however just as before he couldn't even move his arm whilst it was in Jack's grasp.
"How about you give me all your money?" Jack said with a slight smile.
The man saw no blood coating Jack's clothes, no matter how hard he looked he couldn't see even a single droplet, even the sword that had been pulled out was clean of it.
"Monster," The man said causing Jack's eyebrow to twitch.
"I guess so, and I also guess that I don't need you awake," Jack said before using his free arm to give the man a chop on the neck, making his eyes roll over and causing the man to collapse almost immediately.
'Shit, that actually worked.' Jack thought before he put the man down on the ground and started rummaging through his pockets.
In the end, he only found three banknotes.
'Twenty dollars? Damn, I should have known that these people are poor as hell' Jack thought in annoyance before getting up and starting to walk once more.
I'll just have to go hunting all night long today so that I can gather enough money to get a hotel for a few days and then start grinding there nonstop, I could then repeat this process until I find a better way of gathering funds' Jack thought as he headed down the alleyways of Port Angeles.
Hours later, a figure could be seen walking in the center plaza of the city.
The sun had already started shining upon the city once more and people were heading off to their workplaces.
The figure walked to the closest hotel and headed inside.
It was Jack, who had roamed around the city all night long.
'This might actually be a good business, I'm defeating criminals and getting money. It's like grinding a dungeon but in real life' Jack thought to himself jokingly as he walked through the front door of the hotel.
Walking to the reception, Jack quickly managed to get a room for himself and then paid for 4 days before heading upstairs after telling the reception to not bother him or send any cleaners.
Once inside the room, Jack quickly closed the door behind him and locked it.
Looking around Jack observed the room he had been given, using his observation on every single object.
There was a king-sized bed by the left, with two drawers on each side of it, whilst directly in front of the entrance was a large window that you could see the whole plaza of Port Angeles from, and on the right side of the room was a door which led to a small bathroom.
After Jack used [ Vampiric Observation ] on every single object and found that nothing was strange or out of place, he finally released a sigh of relief.
Going to the bedside, he threw his backpack to the corner and laid down on the bed immediately.
There was no time to waste, he needed to grind and become stronger as quickly as he could.
Opening the dungeon tab of the system, a holographic screen appeared in front of him just like always.
[ Dungeons ]
[ Zombie Dungeon ] [ Level 1 ]
[ Ghoul Dungeon ] [ Level 50 ]
[ ??? ]
[ ??? ]
[ ??? ]
Jack didn't hesitate for a moment before clicking the Ghoul Dungeon option.
[ Does the User wish to enter the Ghoul Dungeon ]
[ Proceed ] [ Cancel ]
'Proceed' Jack thought as the button on the screen made a small animation of it being clicked and the very next second, Jack was in the void once more.
After tens upon tens of dungeon runs, Jack had managed to calm down and not freak out every single time he was sent in here, it was either adapt to it or go insane after all.
Merely moments later, Jack felt the ground under him.
Opening his eyes, Jack quickly got onto his feet before looking around.
He had been transported to an entirely different dimension, it was completely different from the zombie dungeon.
He was in the middle of a highly developed city, standing in the middle of a road however that didn't mean that it was a normal city.
Inside the dungeon it was nighttime and the moon was red, looking as if it had been coated in a layer of blood.
The city itself looked destroyed in multiple places and what was the biggest indicator that something was wrong was the absence of any sound.
Jack with his supernatural hearing actually couldn't hear anything.
Not the cars, not the people, and not even the small insects. There was no sound at all besides the sounds he made on his own as he walked.
Walking around carefully, Jack finally saw something in the distance.
It was a monster of sorts, it looked humanlike however its face was contorted almost completely with blood going down its chin and huge fangs that seemed capable of breaking steel itself.
The monster that stood on four feet had lowered itself to the ground as if it were a predator ready to jump its prey.
It remained completely still, lingering...
