New Skills?

"Ah, shit. I am still in the middle of nowhere!" Ryan almost forgot about this part because of everything else that happened. He had spawned right in the middle of a Level 30 area, as this was the place he had logged out.

"Ok, I first need to get out of here." He immediately activated [Stealth], only to find out that nothing was happening. Wait a second, a small thought appeared in Ryan's brain. "Don't tell me!"

He pulled up his system interface to see that everything had completely changed. He no longer had his thief skills and he was also back to level 0. The three levels he had gained had fully reset.

But that was not the most shocking thing… His gaze hurriedly ran through the entire status screen, his eyes widening every second.

"What is this…" Ryan was utterly speechless. "All races hate me?" The title seemed to only have negative effects. "How can all races hate someone? Shouldn't there be at least some races I am friendly with?"

There were also his stamina and vitality stats that looked weird.

"Ok, let me check out the skills first." Ryan shook his head and continued to look at the status screen. At least the class had given him some starter skills like the other normal classes. However…

______________

"Hmmm…" Ryan narrowed his eyes as he stared at his so-called starter skills, studying them carefully. He spent a few minutes trying to carefully understand them, as each had a huge description, unlike the simple skills of a thief.

But no matter how many times he read them, the content did not change.

"Damn it! This is bullshit!"

Both the skills were not really skills. They were handicaps.

Ryan gritted his teeth as he now understood what had happened in reality. The similarity was simply too much for him to ignore.

"Yup, it has to be. I became crazy because of that bloodlust thing that got triggered. Does this mean I need to constantly keep drinking blood?" He read the skill again and there seemed to be no other explanation.

The worst part was that this seemed to be happening both inside the game world and in real life? Fuck, he could accept all sorts of weird things, perhaps in this game world, but how on earth was this happening in real life as well?

He felt as if he was going crazy. If the skill [Blood Lust] could be activated in real life, then could the skill [Curse of the Abyss] also be activated in real life? At least the first one only made him temporarily rabid, the second one would make him permanently rabid!

As the gravity of the situation he was in fully dawned on him, Ryan listlessly sat on the ground staring at the dense forest surrounding him on all sides.

What was happening? What was this game? Why did he become a vampire in real life? That too not the fancy ones shown in tv and movies, he became some sort of cursed creature?

Ryan sat in silence and thought about a lot of strange ideas and possibilities, each of which was more ridiculous than the last.

However, it looked like he did not have the luxury of sitting around like this and thinking. Very quickly, he started feeling the dryness of thirst in the back of his throat.

Ryan instantly jolted up to stand on his feet. The familiar feeling of growing thirst cleared up his mind in an instant. That's right. Things might be confusing for him now, but he was not going to give up. This was still not enough to make him feel dread.

So what if the unimaginable and unbelievable started happening all of a sudden? The path he had to take was still clearly etched in front of him.

"Blood lust and the curse of the abyss, huh? It's time to take a look at what you two actually are." Ryan indifferently started walking ahead, the previous hesitation and confusion no longer on his face.
