First Drop

He killed his third zombie. This time around, a level 1 zombie only gave him 25% exp.

He hunted for more until he reached level 3.

Ding!

"Congratulations on reaching Level 3. All stats increased by 1. No available skill points."

'System.'

************************************************************

'System off.'

He looked at the zombie's corpse.

'I have killed already more than 5 zombies but I have yet to receive a single loot.'

He checked the Training Sword's status.

************************************************************

Name: [Grade D] Training Sword

Damage: 6-8

Durability: 9/10

Description: A training sword created by the god of this world. It's part of the system so it will grant experience points when the user uses it to kill monsters from the system.

************************************************************

'Although it's still 9/10, I have already killed more than 5 zombies. What happens when I'm at level 10? Heck, forget about level 10, I would be lucky if this weapon could last until level 5.'

With that, he was depressed.

'I shouldn't have left the wooden stick at the apartment. What a dumb move.'

He looked around to find other zombies.

***************************

Whoosh!

A zombie's head separated from its body and rolled on the floor.

This was Nathan's fourth kill. One level 1 zombie gave him 12.5% experience points.

'Four more and I'll be level 4. Kekeke~'

He was really happy. With [Coward's Way], he could kill zombies without any worries. His road to power was smooth sailing.

He checked his watch. It's been one hour since he left his apartment building.

'I still have time to kill.'

As he said that, another realization came to mind.

'Dammit. If only I don't need to return back to that apartment I could just farm until late in the afternoon.'

He checked the status of his Training Sword. It was 8/10.

Irritated, he started to hunt for more zombies to wash away the unpleasant feeling.

***************************

A few minutes later, he found himself in front of a coffee shop.

He looked around and spotted 3 zombies. The zombies appeared to be teenagers: two males and one female.

The female zombie was wearing a low-cut black summer dress. Despite a huge chunk of flesh bitten off from the right side of her neck, she was still very pretty.

An idea popped inside Nathan's mind.

'I remember watching this zombie flick where the men toyed with beautiful zombies. If a guy wears a condom and fucks a zombie, will he get infected? I mean, they say that condoms have a 98% theoretical effectiveness rate to prevent pregnancy. How will it fair against the zombie's virus?'

He immediately slapped him himself.

'What the hell are you thinking, Nathan? That was sick!'

After the little pep talk to himself, he moved towards the zombies and decapitated the male zombies first.

"Your turn, sweetie," he said to the female zombie.

Whoosh!

After killing the female zombie, a treasure chest appeared.

He looked at the chest and the system told him it's a [White Treasure Chest].

'Oooh… Finally, a drop!'

He looked at the zombie girl and said, "You're my lucky star, sweetie."

He turned his attention back to the treasure chest and opened it.

A message popped up inside his head.

************************************************************

Name: [Grade D] Short Sword

Damage: 7-9

Durability: 11/11

Description: A short sword created by the god of this world. It's part of the system so it will grant experience points when the user uses it to kill monsters from the system.

************************************************************

When he picked up the Short Sword, the treasure chest vanished.

'So once you take the item, the treasure chest disappears?'

He examined the weapon.

'Although it's also a [Grade D] item, it's better than the Training Sword I have. The Training Sword only has 6-8 damage and a durability of 10. The only issue is that it's shorter than the Training Sword.'

The Training Sword is 2.5ft long, while the Short Sword was only 2ft long.

'Anyways, at least I don't have to worry anymore about losing my weapon.'

However, there was another problem. He didn't have a sheath for his short sword nor does he know how to create one. For now, all he could do is carry the Training Sword on his right hand while the Short Sword on his left.

'What if I get another weapon? How will I carry it? Put it inside my backpack? I would be lucky if it won't tear a hole! Don't MCs in light novels get some sort of spatial bag or ring to carry their items? Where's my spatial bag?! But… am I even the MC?'
