4 Bang, Bang Gorilla

Nemesis woke up immediately at the sound of that roar. Hearing what the voice shouted, he immediately asked the system on what is happening.

"Hey system who or what is the thing that shouted now?"

[No data. System needs a visual to verify. Oh and that powerful individual is coming towards us.]

"Oh shit!" he thought. Now thinking of peeking outside to know who or what it is, he began wracking his brains on how to escape should he gets discovered.

While hearing constant roars and earth shaking, his curiosity grew and took a peek. What he saw in the distance was a Level 80, 13 meter high Gorilla with blood red fur destroying the surroundings and beast corpses around it.

"Shit! Level 80. His grandson might be the one I killed." He noticed that the status window only showed the name and level. The HP and MP along the other info are now gone. So he asked the system about it.

"Hey system, why does the status window now only show Level and Name? What happened to the rest?"

The system replied. [Host has now finished the Training Wheels Protocol. During this session, the host is given full access to information regarding creatures you are fighting. When the host reached level 24, the system decided to remove it so the Host can plan carefully his approach and not always rely on spamming spells just because the host knew all the enemy skills and effects. But don't worry; the system will still alert the host should you encounter dangerous spells or skills.]

Hearing what the system told him, he was dumbfounded but he understood what the system is trying to tell him. "Yeah it's pretty OP but it will serve as my training too. Good system.".

[Warning! The Lvl 80 Bloody Berserking Gorilla has now detected the lingering life power aura of the younger Bloody Berserking Gorilla and is now coming towards Host's location. Advising the host to run now.] The system suddenly said.

"Damn it! System what is my chance of survival with all my skills used?" He asked while looking outside once in a while.

[Host has 10% chance of escape with heavy wounds.]

Now panicking on what the system said, he regretted not having a healing spell or invisibility back in the system trial. "If I only remember to think that I must have it back then, then it will increase my chances."

Emotions flowing into him as he was regretting it. The system suddenly reminded him.

[Host currently has 10 lottery tickets. The prizes there might help you at this moment.]

Hearing what the system just said flow of happiness suddenly on his face, now smiling on having a chance of increased survival. "Oh yeah the lottery. I was going to open them tomorrow so I can be relaxed when opening but now I'm currently in deep shit. Sigh. I hope I get good items. Ok open the lottery function."

As he said that, a wheel with 12 sections appeared. Some section has prizes and those sections caught his attention. It were 5 item prizes, namely: Substitution doll, Smokescreen, Ability completion card (100%), Skill Upgrade (5), and Invulnerability Potion (20). The rest of the section has 2 question marks on it, 3 'Sorry Try Again', and 2 'Free Spin'.

Seeing the names of the items, he began reading each effects.

[Substitution doll] A life-saving item that will make the user escape death once.

[Smokescreen] Smoke bomb that affects a 250 meter wide area. Removes any traces of the user. Lasts 15 seconds. Single use item.

[Ability completion card] Reduces the time to complete any skills in the skill creation system. Available in 30, 50, 70, and 100% Completion.

[Skill Upgrade (5)] Upgrades any skill by 5 levels.

[Invulnerability Potion (20)] Gains invulnerability for 20 seconds.

Seeing the item effects, he began his first spin. And he got a 'Try Again'. Seeing this, he yelled in his mind "Its damn RNGesus. I suck at this back on earth and I also suck on this world. I'm really bad at gambling."

"I still got 9. RNGesus please be good to me."

After 9 spins....

In total he got 4 Try again, 2 Invulnerability potion, 1 Substitution doll, 2 Smokescreen, and 1 Skill Upgrade (5).

Seeing his prizes, Nemesis just sighed. " Those 4 'Try agains' is really making me cry. But oh well, at least I got some good stuff especially the substitution doll. It will come in handy this time." saying this as he consoled himself.

Now the Gorilla arrived and yelled. "Bastard! I finally found you! Come out! I can smell the blood and aura of my grandchild on you.! Took me long enough to pinpoint your location. Stupid busybodies."

Hearing what the Gorilla said, Nemesis stood up and activated [Disguise]. His demon race form is too eye catchy at the moment. Dark skin with red lines that looked like veins, long pointy ears like an elf, and two Horns protruding on either side of his head.

He chose to disguise himself as Dumbledore as it was the first person he remembered should he have to use [Disguise]. Seeing an almost perfect copy of Dumbledore completed with the costume, he chuckled. He also changed his voice to match the disguise. Now confident in facing the Gorilla, he replied.

"Oh finally you arrived. I was wondering when you will arrive." Of course he sort of lied, but whatever.

"So that little monkey was your grandchild. I thought magical beasts can't talk, but now seeing you has widen my horizons."

"We magical beast can start talking at Level 75."

"Really? Interesting. Well, let me tell you a story. I was sleeping in this tree when that little monkey arrived. It started to get too noisy and annoying so I told it to shut up, then started attacking me when it heard me but decided to shrug it off thinking I'm a weakling. Tsk..Tsk..Tsk.. Sadly he failed, and now I'm planning to make his hide into my backpack or purse. Hehe."

Hearing what this old man has said. The Gorilla is now seething with anger.

"You stupid old man!! I will be the one to make your skin into a backpack or purse.!!!"

[Berserk]

[Agility Boost]

[Flaming Hand]

Seeing the incoming fiery attack, Nemesis chuckled.

"Nice skills you got there." [Windrun]

The flaming hand missed him and the giant tree was destroyed, burning it into crisps.

Nemesis started running away from the Gorilla. He noticed this and started chasing him.

"Stupid Old man.! Wait till I catch you!"

[Fissure]

The ground shook, which slowed him a little. Cracks on the ground and minor scratches from the rocks that appeared from the ground.

[Lightning]

Nemesis pointed behind him and a bolt of white light appeared striking the Gorilla.

The Gorilla had deflected the attack with his right hand but the attack made it slightly numbed.

[Fissure] The ground shook again leaving cracks. He also picked up a big boulder and hurled it to the old man.

Almost losing his balance, Nemesis casted another [Windrun] as the effects worn off.

Looking back and seeing the boulder coming towards him. He pointed his hand on that big rock and cast [Lightning]. Seeing that the boulder was destroyed, he now cast 3 [Fireball] on the Gorilla.

Seeing the 3 incoming fireballs, the Gorilla threw 2 boulder on the 2 fireball and casted a [Flaming hand] on the last fireball.

Now that the attack failed to slow down the Gorilla, Nemesis uses the Smokescreen on the approaching Gorilla. When the area is filled with smoke, he casted 5 Magic Arrow, 2 Lightning, and 2 Fireball.

When the spells landed he heard the Gorilla screaming at the top of his voice.

"Goddamn Human! Aarrgggghhh!" The spells landed on him made a significant damage. Adding the smokescreen around him puts him on a bad situation.

Now he needed to find a way out of this smoke. So he tried to find the source of the spell casting. He almost succeeded but got interrupted when the Magic Arrow struck him.

After the 1st Fireball hit him, he finally found out the source and started running towards it. But to his dismay he found no one.

"Damm it. He moved. Bloody Smokescreen, if it's not here I already tear that old man to pieces."

Outside the smoke, Nemesis run around it and cast Fireball on different locations. While he was doing this, the system suddenly said.

[Host's Mana is going to be depleted. Also 9 more second remaining on the Smokescreen. Please plan your escape now.]

"Oh. I'll stop the playtime. I think I caused enough damage on that Gorilla. Maybe that will slow him down. I still have my last remaining Smokescreen. That will be enough to cover my escape."

"Hahahaha.!How do you like it Gorilla? It's fun right?. Well I don't have any more time here, so see you next time.!"

"Maybe the next time we meet, you'll see my new backpack or purse!.Hahahahaha"

Hearing what the old man said. The Gorilla furiously roared and started cursing that old man. He was still finding the way out while using [Fissure] on the source of the voice, but now heard no reply.

20 seconds has passed and the smoke is finally gone. What the Gorilla saw was an empty surrounding with no signs of the old man. Realizing that his prey escaped, he yelled. "Goddamn you old man! Next time I find you, I will not let you escape!"

Up above the sky, a person wearing a black hood is seen floating watching the fight below. The clothes neither make a sound when the wind blowing above, nor its way from the force of the wind.

At the other direction is an Old man running away fast from the area of the Smokescreen.

The person curled the corner of its mouth and muttered. "Interesting." then vanishes thereafter.
