3 Problems popping out.

I inwardly cursed as the wolf jumped at me, trying to bare its fangs into my neck; I jumped to the side escaping his attack, which made it hit its head against a trunk, panicked I took rocks and started throwing them at him trying to intimidate him.

Still, unfortunately, he became angrier and directly jumped at me with a speed that my eyes could not follow, which made us both drop to the ground. But, I was in a disadvantaging posture as he was above me, attempting to slice my neck with his sharp teeth.

Using my remaining strength, I pushed him just 10cm away from my neck, grabbed a little bit of dirt on the ground, and threw it on his eyes Then, I pushed him away and stood above him.

And with shaky hands, I took a stone out of the ground then started smashing his head.

*BAM!* *BAM!* *BAM!* *BAM!*

After smashing his head until it was in an unrecognizable state, I sat on the ground and started crying, emptying my suffering and all of the torture I endured for all these years; I cried as if there was no tomorrow, trying to comfort myself…

After a quick 10mins, I stopped crying with one sentence in my mind.

'I don't need them, and I will never do!'

And after wiping my tears off, ready to leave this place, I got caught off guard by the notification.

[DANGER ALERT!] [DANGER ALERT!] [DANGER ALERT!]

I quickly opened the map and saw lots of red points heading towards me. Then I remember that I made a terrible mistake.

'I FORGOT THAT MONSTERS CAN SMELL BLOOD FROM A LONG DISTANCE!' I thought.

I resumed my running session, searching for a safe place to hide in, and after some unfortunate encounters with dangerous animals, I found a dark cave with no monsters near its area; thus I entered it as it was the only place with no ferocious monsters ready to crush my head. And surprisingly, I found no living being in it; therefore, with no care in the world, I fell asleep…

The next day...

I woke up after the most relaxing sleep in my life! And after a quick look, I remember what happened last night.

"I guess I really did it! The great me ran away without the help of someone HUAHAHUAU! But hold on didn't I kill someone for the first time? Shouldn't I feel guilt and sorrow?" I wondered

[Host will not feel guilt for killing someone as he gained a dem- A system from the devil himself.]

" So you are telling me that I became a monster? Welp, I will not complain as I don't even care if I stay human as long I became more powerful." I said while peeing.

[….]

"Well, let's talk about sad things now! System open menu!" I said.

"what?! How will I be able to do that hellish training! I'm ONLY 14 years OLD! And what do you mean by losing the system?! I just got it!

[Noah doesn't need a lazy host.]

"Whh-hat are you talking about? I'm not lazy. Or am I?"I responded with a silly smile on my face.

"Anyways, I will show you that I'm not by doing all of that with no complaints at all!" I added.

*GROWL*

"oh… I forgot to eat…. HOW WOULD I GET FOOD!" I screamed, imagining my life ending because of hunger.

"Am I really that dumb, forgetting to even bring food or water with me!" Then with a look around the cave, I found a pond-like structure filled with water, so with a savage expression, I drank from it like a beast that had not drunk for years, and after drinking until I couldn't anymore. I removed my head from the water and took a look at my reflection.

I saw the face of a handsome young man with dark eyes and messy brown hair and an oval-shaped visage with sharp eyebrows.

"Goddam, that I look good today! Wait, don't get distracted Almar, from where will I get food?" I asked.

[Noah Suggest to host to get berries and all the types of edible fruits as they won't rot quickly as meat would.]

"What do you mean edible fruits don't you as a system know me? If so, you should know that I stopped my studies at the elementary school!" I complained

[Noah can't help Host. As a capable Host, you should find your way out alone.]

" *sigh* Guess I will depend on my luck this time…]

[SIDE QUEST: LEARNING HOW TO SURVIVE IN THE WOODS:

[REWARDS]: A POISON TRACKER, REGULAR DRAGGER.

[FAILURE]: LOCKED SYSTEM FOR 1 WEAK!

"WOW! Finally, a quest that I really want."

And in a good mood, I go out of the cave and remember crucial information

*INHALE*

"I DON'T WHERE I'M!" So with a plan that was to walk in a straight line, I walked and walked until I found a bush full of weird colored berries, and because of my hungry state, I ate a LOT without even checking if it was poisonous, and after 5 min I threw up everything I ate with a notification appearing in front of me

[POISON IMMUNITY SKILL OBTAINED!]

After reading the good news, I started testing it by eating the berries I just ate a minute ago. Unsurprisingly I didn't feel anything, so I took my dirty shirt off and filled it with the berries. After learning that I could upgrade my poison immunity, I had gone out on my mission of eating random stuff!

2 hours later…

"That was a bad idea." I weakly said with a full tummy and a shirt full of weird-looking fruits while lying on the cave's ground.

"Welp, I hope this was worth it." I sighed.

'open menu.'

[REWARDS]: A POISON TRACKER, REGULAR DAGGER.

[FAILURE]: LOCKED SYSTEM FOR 1 WEAK!

[COMPLETED!]

[GAINED A POISON TRACKER!

GAINED A REGULAR DAGGER!]

"WHOA, finally some good rewards, hold up Noah, where is my dagger?" I asked.

[Host can get his dagger by saying INVENTORY. Before the Host starts questioning, he gained the inventory skill as a gift with the regular dagger.]

"What? Is it just me, or is this system becoming incredible and more admirable every mission?" I asked.

[Noah was always awesome.]

"What shameless partner I have." I said with an annoyed face.

[Noah doesn't understand.]

"._."

"I won't be wasting my time anymore talking with you Noah, open inventory!" I ordered.

[1x normal dagger]

"so, how do I take it out?"

[Just say take out the name of the item.]

"Ok, take out normal dagger."

A beautiful sharp black dagger had appeared on my hands just when I said that sentence; I hold it in my right hand and start swinging It, trying to get used to it. Unsuspectingly, I felt so comfortable using it as if I was using it for years. And then a notice pop in front of me.

[+1xp for knife handling]

Stupified, I swing it again, then the same message appears

[+1xp for knife handling]

"WHAT THA FOK! That's so broken I could swing it 100 times, then I will level up my knife skills!" Suddenly I remember that I needed to train my muscles or I will really die.

"WHAT THE FOK!!!"
