Out from the castle

The rare item from the Grim wolf turns out to be a coat?

[Undying Coat ×1]

The sub-stats were on par with this floor's boss's last hit rare item, the Midnight Cloak.

He told me the designs were similar even though he liked the Undying Coat better since they have Wolf fur and a hood on the back.

Well, he gave the [Grim Fangs ×2] to me since I did most of the work, even though I don't really need that many of them...

We end up partying on our way to the second village. But well, we're separating afterward.

[Illfang the Kobold Lord]

Since Kirito decided to split up, I take on the opportunity to clear this floor by myself.

The rumors have reached everyone in the beginner's town. The guidebook has been released now and is free on the menu.

Well, that doesn't stop me from clearing the floor. I went to find the boss room throughout the map and...

"ROAAAAR"

*THUD*

I did it, since writing down all that happened would be tiring.

(A/N: Oi!)

Well, the big fat kobold king laid down on his stomach. He bleeds and I wipe my tattered sword from blood.

[CONGRATULATIONS!]

I leveled up and as expected, I got the midnight coat.

But... There was something else below it.

[You Received:

•1× Midnight Coat

•1× Dimensional Smart Phone]

...huh?

.

.

.

*DING*

[Requirements have been met: Clear floor 1. "Log out" option has now been unlocked.]

This is it...

With this I---!!

*ZING*

.

.

.

It has been 2 days since that "day". As the white particles leave my sight... I was able to see the new sight of views...

A park, no... A destroyed park. Kobold bodies can be found everywhere and so were humans.

It's the JSDF, they're eliminating the monsters that come out from the portal in the middle of the park... Wasn't this Shiba park? I could see the Tokyo Tower from here.

*Ratatatatatata*

Ah shoot, I need to hide.

I watch Japan's Self-Defense Force take control of the situation. No, more like I don't care about it right now since meeting Hiromi is much more important right now.

Well, they don't seem to be having any more casualties so I think I'll just go home...

.

.

.

*Ding dong*

I rang the bell... Hopefully Hiromi's home.

And... I was right, as soon as she sighted me she ran towards me.

"I am back, Hiromi... I am back."

The only reason I was a little bit upset was the fact that I can't stop her tears from stopping even though I had her in my arms.

.

.

.

The world was... "A little bit" in chaos.

Beginner monsters started appearing out of the blue portals, and many casualties happened.

But the real world received the news right after the players disappeared.

It turns out Kayaba hacked all television channels across the world.

He explained the exact same thing with all the screens in the world having all different languages.

It almost looks like that one scene from the Man Of Steel if I had not mistaken.

That being said...

When I tapped on the option, the rectangular object manifested in my hands in white particles.

A smartphone.

That's right...

It was that [1× Dimensional Smart Phone] thing...

*DING*

The moment it manifested, the screen turned on.

[Messages have arrived!]

I remembered it... back in my old world. When I get so much free time and get into the otaku hole too deep, it basically turns me into a content-craving lazy creature.

Such creature that read fan-made fiction of the original story due to their content-craving brain wasn't going to accept that a series ended.

A Magical Group Chat that allows you to communicate between worlds.

[A Quest has arrived!]

Who would've thought...

["Spider-Girl" has joined the server]

["Weakest Hunter" has joined the server]

---that solo players had to be in groups too...

["Self-proclaimed Solo Player" has joined the server]

Well, that's just how the plot is I guess...

[Welcome, to the Dimensional Group Chat]

.

.

.

[Notice: You have been nominated as an Administrator in the Group Chat, would you like to accept the role?]

...Yes?

*Ding*

["Self-proclaimed Solo Player" has gained a higher title. Titles are automatically set to the highest titles in possession.]

["Self-proclaimed Solo Player" will now be listed as "Administrator Y"]

(A/N: it was my idea in the first place so it's fine for me to use it, right? The administrator Y, I mean)

Administrator Y... I think I've heard of that name before somewhere.

Meh, that doesn't matter I guess...

I opened the empty chat logs.

[Administrator Y: Hello, everyone.]

*Cough*

Was I too neutral?

...

...

...

...

[Administrator Y: Hello? @everyone]

Wait... I typed it in Hiragana...

*Ding*

[Weakest Hunter: English?]

...ah.

---Sung Jin Woo's POV---

In a world where hunters, humans who possess magical abilities, must battle deadly monsters to protect mankind from certain annihilation, I find myself in a seemingly endless struggle for survival.

My name is Sung Jin Woo.

I'm an E-ranked hunter. Out of all the members in the hunter's association, I'm the weakest hunter in the lowest tier.

Well... Until just recently.

*Alarm*

A game-like system.

I thought by the time I encountered a double dungeon, that would be my end.

By the time I woke up, a blue hologram screen appeared in front of me. The system gives me quests and rewards.

At first...

[The system will help the 'player's growth.]

[If he fails to obey the system's orders, there may be a penalty.]

[Your rewards have arrived]

I thought I was just hallucinating.

But then...

*Alarm*

*Quest Direction*

[Daily Quest: Getting Ready To Become Powerful.]

(Incomplete) Push-ups [0/100]

(Incomplete) Curl-ups [0/100]

(Incomplete) Squats [0/100]

(Incomplete) Running [0/10]

[Warning: Failing to complete this daily quest will bring a punishment associated with this quest.]

The penalty for not completing the quest is being transported into the penalty zone, a realm of desert full of giant centipede monsters.

So...

After an episode of failing the daily quest and cursing every single centipede in this world, I slowly became stronger.

I do my daily quests, and I went to a dungeon alone.

I soloed a dungeon full of monster wolves with a huge snake as its boss and won.

With the help of the system... I can become stronger!

Blue Poison Fang, Kasaka... It's the boss of the dungeon, in the appearance of a giant snake with two metallic fangs as if it were made of steel.

I had to become stronger... So I will kill it even if it kills me.

And...

*Alarm*

["Self-proclaimed Solo Player" will now be listed as "Administrator Y"]

Ugh... The other party seems to be chatting in Japanese, even though the phone's default language is Korean...

This "Administrator" guy is Japanese?

And Spider-Girl?

All the names are quite weird, but I was just confused as to why this thing logged me in with that name...

"Weakest Hunter..."

Well... I hurriedly installed the English keyboard and typed it in.

*Ding*

[Weakest Hunter: English?]

Hopefully, they know English.

My English is not even that good...

*Ding*

[Administrator Y has made a petition. Issues have been detected inside the server. A language barrier is expected to stagnate the progress of the group]

[Updating the Dimensional Chat Group]

*Ding*

[Update has been executed successfully]

[Dimensional Chat Group Patch 1.1]

Such a Notification popped out on the phone screen.

*Ding*

[Administrator Y: Sorry about earlier. For starters, how about we start with introductions? My name is Akihito. Delighted to make your acquaintance]

This guy he... He chatted in Korean?

Rather, how does he know I am Korean?

Uh... Well, I should at least respond with something...

*Ding*

[Weakest Hunter: I am Sung JinWoo, a Korean. Nice to meet you]

Good, now the third member should...

...

...

Uh... No response?

[Administrator Y: Nice to meet you, JinWoo-ssi. I'm looking forward to working with you.]

Oh! We can understand each other now but... Now what?
