Chapter 1Prologue

The clouds of mist slowly cleared away as the man took his full form. The terrifying eyes of the wolf just made them freeze.

The eyes of the werewolf were blood red. The hairy beast was almost thrice the size of Reno. 

"I've given you enough time to play! Now die!!!" 

The wolf suddenly leapt at Reno with its claw held high. 

"Shit!!!"

Reno quickly summoned a magical barrier in front of him by his hands and defended the slash. 

[ Mana : 185/200 ]

*CRACK!!!*

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the barrier. The God-level werewolf was stronger than he could ever imagine. 

[ God-level : The ranking a player receives after surpassing 75 ]

Suddenly the two claws of the werewolf lit up with a dark fire. It was charging its claws for a special move. 

*Where are you, Claus??? We need you right now!!!* 

Reno thought as he looked at the beast's deadly eyes. 

*ZWWWwWWOOOoM!!!*

Suddenly, the werewolf dashed at Reno at great speed. 

He quickly summoned another magical barrier in front of him. 

[ Mana : 176/200 ]

*CRASHHH!!!*

Suddenly, the beasts cracked up the magical barrier and the claw pierced Reno's jacket. 

"Ahhhhhh!!!! Fucking hell!!!"

[ HP : 173/200 ]

"Reno! Get the fuck away!!!" yelled Draco running towards the werewolf holding the two short swords. 

Instantly, the werewolf turned to Draco. 

"Expecting to defeat me?" The beast werewolf roared looking at the noob vampire charging at him. 

The moon was up high. The night was for the werewolf to rule. With unlimited mana in the night, the werewolves are too powerful at night. 

As Draco dashed towards the werewolf, the werewolf suddenly dashed sideways. 

Draco couldn't even see the moves of the werewolf. 

*SLASH!*

The werewolf slashed Draco's body, leaving a huge claw mark on his chest. Draco managed to escape with his life by jumping up when the wolf targeted his head. 

[ HP : 140/200 ]

"Fuck!!"

Suddenly, the instant the werewolf slashed Draco, its right arm went for another slash. 

"Oh hell no!"

Reno yelled out as he placed his hands together as fast as he could. 

His eyes turned yellow and an immense amount of aura emitted from the man. 

[ Mana : 145/200 ]

Suddenly 2 chains appeared around the werewolf and the two chains locked the beasts arms. 

"GRWAAARRRRRRRR" 

The wolf struggled to break the chains. It roared and pulled the chains furiously, but the power wasn't enough to break the chains. 

Suddenly, it gave out a dark fire from its red eyes. The aura coming from the beast increased immensely. 

"FUCKING BASTARDS!!"

The wolf broke the two chains in an instant. 

"ROOAAAAAARRRR!!!!*

Reno and Draco stepped back, little by little. 

"You can't run away from this God!!!!" He yelled to the werewolf as he jumped at them like a monster. 

The head of the wolf and the body of a monster just told the two to run. 

"Can't do it, Claus! Time for you to approach!!!!" 

Reno yelled as he ran back. Draco was right beside him. 

The monster was becoming intensely fast. 

The barrier shielding them from the neighborhood wasn't that large. Since they were fighting on a street filled with humans, they couldn't do anything without a barrier shielding away the players and the magic from the human eyes. 

*DASHHH!!!*

Shortly a man wearing black dashed passing through them with a huge claymore in his hands. It was Claus.

"Time for you to go beast!!!" Claus yelled to the beasts and he dashed right into the werewolf. 

He was just as fast as the werewolf. Both were emitting equal amounts of aura. Both were God-levels!

"GRAAAARRR!!!"

The werewolf launched itself at Claus. He tried to slash Claus's head with an intense speed. 

Claus ducked instantly and-

*SLASH!*

"GRAARRR!!"

Claus pierced the beast's chest with his claymore and the beast roared out of pain. 

The werewolf dashed back and the cut instantly healed.

"Motherfucker! You don't belong with those shitheads in the back." The werewolf said to Claus as he stared at the huge claymore in his hands. 

Suddenly, Claus replaced the claymore in his hands with a long white blade. 

"You truly don't!" The werewolf said it once more. 

"I choose where I belong! Shut the fuck up and die!" yelled Claus. 

Claus got instance to launch at the beast once more. 

"Hehehe! Let's see who dies!" The werewolf said.

Suddenly, the werewolf placed its hands together. "CLONES!!!" The werewolf yelled.

Suddenly, the werewolf multiplied in numbers. Now 10 werewolves were surrounding them. 

Claus closely observed the beast. It was one of the special skills of a werewolf. 

Claus gripped his sword tightly. He lifted his sword slowly. 

*Time for my special move!* 

All 10 werewolves suddenly jumped at Claus as their claws targeted his head. 

Claus waited patiently. It was the exact moment. The most suitable move. 

*SWIRL!!!*

Suddenly, as the werewolves were only meters away from Claus, the sword lit up with a blue flame and Claus instantly spun around gripping on his by both his hands. 

[ Mana : 450/600 ]

By the instant spin, a swirl of fire was created and every single werewolf got beheaded in a matter of minutes. 

The swirl of fire slowly faded away and Claus stepped out of it. 

[ +5000 XP ]

All the wolves lying dead on the ground turned into dust. 

~ Claus ~

[ A new level 79 reached ]

[ Missile skill unlocked ]

~ Reno ~ 

[ +1000 XP ]

[ A new level 20 reached ]

[ 5 new skills unlocked ]

[ HP, Mana, and Energy upgraded to 400 ]

~ Draco ~ 

[ +1000XP ]

[ A new level 13 reached ]

[ 2 new skills unlocked ]

The whole team had gathered a lot of XP just as they expected. Only an hour has passed by after the great Witch Hunt started. 

"Fuck yeah!!! We just got a whole lot of XP!!" yelled Reno, jumping with excitement. Reno was wearing a long brown overcoat and he had blonde hair. The man was fair and handsome.

He looked at Draco who looked like he was staring at his new upgrades. 

Draco was wearing two glasses and he had messy curly hair. The man was shocked by the immense power of Claus.

"Goddammit Claus! How the fuck do you do this!" Draco jabbered looking at the man. 

"Experience idiot! Don't worry! You'll become a monster once you fight some players!" Claus said as he made the weapons in his hand disappear.

The whole street of Parker's Lane was dark. Most of the people were asleep. Only the light poles of the street and some lights that lit up the attics of the houses gave light to the street.

"Well, The Witch Hunt has started! And from today onwards! We'll go through hell every single day!" said Claus as they walked back to their mansion. 

"Well all the players would be coming here right? That'll be a huge mess! That many players in a single place... It might even reveal us to society!" Reno said. 

"True... Yet... Let's see how it goes! We'll just keep playing this game of systems... Until we reach Immortality!"

The Author's POV

The person whom the world revolves around. The person who defeats all of his opponents, and ultimately gets the beautiful girl. The sole existence all villains fear. That is the protagonist. What about me? As a failed author who had only one success throughout his whole career, I had reincarnated into my late novel. "This is it" I thought, as I tightly clenched my fist. Did I just get reincarnated in my own novel? Is this where I reincarnate in a novel and become the protagonist? No. Sadly it's not that kind of novel, as I reincarnated as a mob. The world doesn't revolve around me. The girls don't come flocking towards me. The cheat items don't come to me. "Phew" I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank god I'm not the protagonist" I joyfully shouted as tears streamed down my cheeks. Wait, are you curious as to why I don't want to be the protagonist? I did forget to mention the most important thing when I was describing a protagonist. That is... They are calamity magnets. I just died. If I learned something from that, it's that it really isn't a pleasant experience. If possible let me live a long stable life. Thank you, whoever reincarnated me. I would later come to regret these words... ======== Reader Disclaimer : Please read the *Read before reading novel* in synopsis. ======== Credit to _oinkchan for helping me find the previous novel cover Credit to Rengoku for his amazing edit of the new cover. ======== Discord : https://discord.gg/FNAKgfyky4 Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TheAuthorPOV
