The Game System : Showdown of Power

GAME GAME !? REAL ? OR FAKE ! It was a game-like place, bustling with the voices of confused people wondering where they ended up. To my sadness, I realized I had the lowest skill and felt utterly hopeless in everything. Whether I had to become a mighty fighter or a skilled magician, and even if time had somehow turned back, I knew my only chance of survival was to use every resource available. In that challenging situation, I pondered, [ " What can I do? " ] But the answer was clear: [ " I'll do whatever it takes to survive! " ]

My First Discussion!

"Damn…. F**K... F**K "

[This marks the end of the instructions and here you may proceed. The starting point will open soon, and you must brace yourselves for monster attacks.]

"WHAT THE FISH! "

I couldn't keep up with everything that was happening. The chaotic events left me no time to wallow in self-pity.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAA"

The sounds of unknown creatures echoed from beyond the walls. Fear-stricken people clung to each other, while those with weapons tried to shield themselves.

I followed suit, hurrying to grab a spear. There were still swords available, but I wasn't willing to confront the monsters up close.

My mind raced with thoughts: 'What am I supposed to do?' 'Shit, what am I going to do?'

I wasn't the only one panicking; screams filled the air. The cries of the people outside, coupled with the claustrophobic atmosphere, intensified the fear.

"God! Help please Help! !"

"Please, get me out of here. Please…." "Stop fooling around! Open the damn door! I'll sue every one of you for this! Come on, open it!"

"Wahh wahh… Please spare my life. Please…."

"I'm calling the police! Where's my phone? The police!"

"Grab your weapons! Can't you hear those sounds outside? Everyone, arm yourselves!"

"Why are you just standing there? Men, raise your shields now! Move it!" "What the hell are you doing? Put an end to this sick prank!"

Among the crowd, a burly man stood out, shouting loudly as he raised a wooden shield. He seemed eager for a fight, and before I activated anything, I could see his Show Details.

[Check the Show Details and talent levels of the player Park Deokgu.]

[Name: Park Deokgu]

[Title: None. You should try a little harder.] [Age: 23] [Disposition: Enthusiastic musclehead] [Class: None.] [Stats] [Strength: 21/Growth potential: heroic (ideal)] [Agility: 16/Growth potential: rare (below average)] [Stamina: 21/Growth potential: heroic (ideal)] [Intelligence: 10/Growth potential: rare (below average)] [Endurance: 30/Growth potential: heroic (ideal)] [Luck: 11/Growth potential: common (below average)] [Magic: 00/Growth potential: common (above average)]

[Summary: In general, your attributes are well-balanced, making you a promising warrior with excellent growth potential in strength and endurance. The remarkable potential for strength and endurance sets you apart. Although having low magic and agility may not be ideal, these shortcomings can be offset by your other stats. When compared to player Kee Miyoung, your potential is truly impressive.]

"You didn't have to tell me that...," I couldn't believe this guy was 23. Despite his immense height, size, and weight, he didn't really look fat. It was more like his entire body was covered in muscles.

Unlike me, who only had 10 points in strength and endurance, he boasted 20 points in strength and 30 in endurance. I quickly realized that not only were my talent levels at the lowest, but my stats were also scraping the bottom of the barrel. With the insights I gleaned from Eyes' Check, I could tell he'd be valuable as a warrior or a meat shield [for our team]. If I pretended to be friendly, I could definitely convince him to become our ally.

First, I decided to stick around him while holding a spear in my hand. When I practiced a movement with my spear, Park Deok-gu seemed pleased and began to speak. "Are you going to take an action?" he asked.

"Hmm Yeah of course I will.As we could see something out there...So, It's better to do something instead of just sitting around," I replied.

"Your words are just amazing bro and it really sounds cool. Even though you look so weak," he remarked, a hint of rudeness in his tone.

"Thank you. Let's get ready for now," I said, feeling somewhat satisfied with the interaction. Just exchanging a few words was effective.

Taking a broader approach, I addressed everyone, "Just ignoring the situation won't change anything. First, we have to deal with what's ahead(Monsters). Outside, you can hear the monsters crying. Whether it's real, or hidden cameras, or a dream, we have to do something. We all have to take up arms. We have to make a stand."

"Stop messing around!" someone protested.

"I mean it. I wouldn't play this kind of prank, and I want it to be a joke too. Everyone, please pick up a weapon. Later, if it turns out to be a joke, we'll deal with it then," I urged, hoping to rally the group.

There should be many people who can fight, and we needed all the help we could get. It was unknown how many enemies would come or what type they would be. Someone muttered something, and another agreed, "For now it is important to get a weapon. Guess What ? We should take care of the things around us first and proceed with the situation accordingly."

"Absolutely right ! Yes , Yes We definitely need to do that!"

Gradually, the mood in the room improved. Nobody here was used to fighting, but one by one, they started to pick up swords and arm themselves.

"Women are also urged to pick up the weapons," I suggested, causing some surprise.

"What the ...?"

"I'm not saying you should go out and fight. But I can't predict what will happen. You need to carry a weapon. You can't expect someone to always be there to protect you. That's reality," I explained, sensing the need to be practical.

"Oh. Yeah you are right "

They seemed somewhat reluctant but raised their weapons nonetheless.

While some were still skeptical, I couldn't say anything openly at that moment. Instead, I nervously waited for the enemies to come, hoping that somehow, we could survive. The starting point opened, and in an instant, chaos erupted as monsters rushed in from all directions.

"WAAA"

"WOOO"

"KAKAAKO"

"Run away!" "Help me!"

Despite the initial encouragement, panic soon consumed the room. It was clear that our survival chances were slim, and I knew I had to get out of there. I urged others to run and managed to get out with Park Deok-gu by my side. As we made our way to a wider area, I couldn't help but think of the people left behind. I tried to console myself, realizing that there was nothing I could have done for them.

As we ran, I noticed a man who skillfully saved me with his sword. His face left a lasting impression, but there was no time to dwell on it. We were focused on survival, and Park Deok-gu, being the reliable type, followed my instructions. We managed to escape the immediate danger, but the guilt and pain of leaving others behind weighed heavily on my mind.

"Damn it...," Park Deok-gu cursed, a reflection of the overwhelming emotions we all felt.
