(Ivan's POV)
I open my eyes and the first thing I see is the boxes from after the fight. FUCK OFF. Seriously why cant the boxes come up with my permission instead of them just blocking my view. I see multiple boxes were open, even though I don't want to I read through them.
You unlocked a new subskill for the ability Aero kinesis!
Lvl 1 (12%) Wind's Cannon- You ever wanted to just blast something but don't have what you need to do it? Well you're in luck with this ability you force wind to move so fast that it's almost a cannon. 22 Mp per use.
Damage- 30
How did I get this one? Suddenly remembering the part where I flew through the air, I grin. I know that I was probably having an adrenaline rush from almost dying I want to use the skill again. My grin quickly turns into a frown when I read the Mp cost. That's way to expensive to use right now. Sighing I close the box and I move on to the next one.
You slept on the floor. You healed most of your injuries
Hp: 63/63
Mp: 25/25
Stamina: 78/78
All cuts were healed
Stomach was healed
You will feel sore
Reading the part where my cuts were healed, I look at my arm. Sure enough the wound was fully healed, no scab was left behind only a scar. What does upset me though was the fact my hoodie was torn. C'mon this was my only hoodie. What I' am going to do now?.... well with Inventory would be easy to steal. I smile at the fact that I could get anything for free as long I put it in my inventory. After deciding to steal later I move on to the next box.
You leveled up 1 time!

Damn that's a lot of numbers. I wonder if the numbers will stop growing eventually? I look at my lowest stat which is luck. Should I put some points in? I decide against it because I want to save these points in case it gets harder to level up in the future. I move on to the next box which was about my Sprint skill and some stats that changed. I wished they would just add all the changes in one box its really getting annoying going through all these boxes.
Thanks to the repeated use of the skill Sprint increased to Lvl3 (2%)
Thanks to all the damage you took the skill Physical Endurance increased to Lvl3 (13%)
Wow I didn't expect both of these skills to level up by two levels. Maybe its because their at a low level? Meh it doesn't matter right now I will just read the next box.
With all the dodging you did your Dex increased
+3 to Dex
Thanks to you lifting your weapon your Str increased

I'm offended by this, I'm know I'm weak but I'm not that . I guess the Katana was little bit heavy, but not heavy enough for me to have trouble lifting it. Fuck you system. I guess the rest I'm happy about. I look at the box in front of me and notice this is the last box left. Finally I can finally move on after I read this.
Thanks to you using a Katana for the first time you unlocked a new skill!
Katana mastery- You can use a katana hooray for you.
Lvl1 (25%) Basic slash- Wow you can use a katana, but you're really bad at it.
Like I said before, fuck you system. Once I get all the boxes out of my face, I see some stuff laying on the floor. I don't what those are, but they are mine now. As I get up from the floor I'm hit with a wave of pain in my arms and legs. Oh fuck! Is it normal to be this sore after a fight? If it always feels like this I won't ever fight again!
After I mange to get back up on my feet I slowly make my way to my new possessions. When I get there, I see two tiny bottles, it was about the size of a test tube and at the top there was a cork that you would have to pull off to open it. One bottle was a bright green and the other was a deep blue. The last item was the sword the Oni was using, which wasn't rusty like the one I was using, so that was a huge plus. Curious about the liquid in the bottles I use Inspect on them.
Small Hp potion- Heals 15 hp and minor injures.
Small Mp potion- Restores 15 Mp.
After I read the descriptions, I put the items I got into my inventory. I look around for any other monsters. Seeing that the hallway was empty I make my way towards the entrance. When I exit the dungeon I'm immediately hit with the cold and snow. I know its Chicago, but does it really have to snow right now. As I head towards my house, I notice that it was getting dark. How long did I nap?
When I reach my house, I see that there was a For Sale sign. What the hell? Do we even have the money to move? Hopefully the house we move into doesn't have mold in it. I open the door and I was right there was nothing left no furniture, but the weird thing was my parents weren't anywhere to be found. Where are those retards? I start to search the house, but they weren't anywhere to be found. Well shit. I should probably just wait in my room until they come to pick me up.
When I open my door, I head towards my corner. When I got there, I saw a note attached to my blanket.
Hello Anthony. As you can see, we're gone. Don't bother waiting for us we don't want you anywhere. Good luck surviving on the streets you homeless piece of shit. Bye!
When I'm finished reading the note I begin to panic and I feel like breaking down into tears. Feeling Gamer's Mind do its job I start to think of what I should do now. Well I mean it's obvious what I should do. Go to the police and get them arrested for child neglect. Well that was going to be what I was going to do, but I got a new quest.
Being Homeless isn't that bad!

Not knowing what to think I being to weigh the pros and cons of being homeless. First con I'm homeless. Second con I have to deal with the weather conditions. Wait one consequence is that nothing will happen. So that means if being homeless is to hard for me to deal with I can just go to the police. Now knowing that I can quit whenever I want, I click accept. I decide to take my blanket, my school supplies, and my clothes with me on my quest to being the best homeless person possible. I start to make my way outside. I take one last look at my house and I begin to find a place to settle down for the night.
My first response to this situation I'm in, is to steal from Walmart. When I finally in I make my way towards the back where all the camping equipment was. I look around for a box in the back of the shelf. Why? You may ask, well it's because with my Inventory I can store the tent in there, but I have to make it look like I'm browsing instead of stealing. When I finally find some tents at the back I reach towards the box. As I'm doing this, I make sure to move the box to make it look like I'm just reading the box. When I move the box, I put the hand my hand on the box in the back and store it in my inventory. I move the box back I thank whoever decided to put the tents on the bottom shelf. Now that I have the tent I decide to head outside. As I'm almost out the door I realize that I can steal so much more stuff. As I head back in I look for the chips aisle. When I walk down the aisle I smile since I never once had chips in my life, mostly because I never had any money on me. I grab a bag of Spicy Nacho Doritos.
When I store the bag in my inventory I grin as know that I can have anything I want know. I decide to go on a stealing spree. Whenever I stole something, I felt like I had all the power in the world. I didn't care what I stole I took everything. I took clothes, food and some toys. I even stole some medicine. I don't know what time it was when I was done but when I went outside, I could barely see a thing.
I make my way towards the back of the Walmart and decide to put down my tent in a corner where I know no one will see it. As I finish making the tent I step back to admire my work. My admiring was cut short when I notice my body was starting to shake from the cold. I deicide to head inside. When I looked at the place I will probably be staying in for the year I deicide to put down some blankets. I take out six blankets and set them down, and I take out two pillows. I change into some pajamas and get under the blankets, I put three blankets on top of me and three below me. The feeling from having a comfortable place to sleep was amazing. Did all people sleep like this? I can't wait until I have a mattress.
Even though I don't have to sleep anymore I still want to sleep because I just like sleeping that much. I close and quickly I lost consciousness. When I woke in the morning there was two boxes in my face. The first one was the same as the box that appeared when I woke up, something how all my injuries from sleeping. Except this time everything was healed. The second box was a new skill though. Not expecting a new skill to develop overnight I happily read it.
Since you slept out in the cold you developed a resistance to the cold!
Lvl 2 (34%) Cold Resistance- With this you resist the cold. It doesn't do much but at least you will be a little bit more comfortable.
After I read the box I crawl out of the tent, of course I put the blankets and pillows in my inventory. I don't want anyone stealing it. I take out my bag which I have all my school supplies in and decide to keep going to school. Even though I don't have to go to school anymore I still want to go, mostly because I want to at least have some chance of becoming successful in my life. But now that I was introduced to mythology I don't think my life will be the same.
As the days go on, I developed a schedule, after school I go to the dungeon and fight some Oni's. Sadly though, I wasn't making any progress with clearing the dungeon. The only thing that was good was that happened was that I leveled up to level 10, the move air subskill was now a level 9 without the Son of Fūjin title, the subskill Wind's Cannon was now a level 3 without the Son of Fūjin title, and my Katana Mastery subskill was now a level 6. As for my Sprint skill it showed a lot of improvement it was now a level 9. For my stats they were mostly in the twenties. Well on a Wednesday was when my world was changed once again by two different gangs.
