Chapter 2: Tutorial

Ding!

[Welcome to Afterlife]

I open my eyes, and I was shocked.

All that Surrounds me is Emptiness. An Empty Void that spans in an infinite unknown. Yet Somehow, I didn't feel fear, Rather an odd sense of Familiarity. Wait, Familiar? I was confused. This is a place I've never been to before yet there was an odd sense on belonging here. My mind is scrambled at the moment until I heard something.

Ding!

[Hello, would you like to Start the Tutorial?]

Tutorial huh? Might as well go for it. I said "Yes".

[Tutorial Started]

[Please walk to the Checkpoint] the Voice said.

Suddenly, A Stone Path unravels itself from out of nowhere and at the end of the path is an glowing circle. And as Instructed by the Voice, I walked towards the "checkpoint"

Step.. Step.. Step.. Step..

Each Step I take produces sounds that felt different than the ones I'm used to for so long. Each Step gradually faster. Each Step produces an unexplainable feeling. Like a Sort of Freedom. Each Step liberate me of the Rules and Laws that shackle my Body. A feeling of Freedom, A feeling I longed for.

Ding!

[Checkpoint has been reached.]

I gradually halt my steps as I suddenly notice I am in the Circle.

[Task Completed, Second Task will be Issued]

[Pick a Weapon]

The Path Behind me disappeared only leaving me to the Checkpoint, then Weapons started to Surround me. Different kinds of weapons. Swords, Bows, Spears. You name it.

"Shit" I said. As I noticed that there are no guns or any technological weapons, I sighed and Picked up a Sword

[Do you wish to Pick this Weapon?]

I said yes. And the Weapons disappear. The Moment I touched the sword, an Odd Feeling Suddenly rose, Something that wants to have fun. Something Chaotic. And I too wanted to try this weapon in my hands.

Ding!

[Second Task Completed, Third Task will be Issued]

[Destroy this Puppet] the Voice Said

And as it's voice disappears, a Path once again has appeared and a Puppet also appeared, It didn't have any weapon, It just stood there. like it's asking to be destroyed. I took a step then an unknown feeling appears again, but its much more different than the one I had earlier. Like, It's telling me to Obliterate the Object in front of me. A Feeling I very much welcomed.

I slowly walked to the Puppet, then gradually increased my speed until I ran. A hint of madness and happiness was displayed in my face as I increased my Speed towards the Puppet, After Getting Close enough I initiated a Slash, not the Ones practiced many times, but a wild and brutal slash.

Shing!

The Sword Connected with the Puppet, Showing Visible Damage. I wasn't quite satisfied yet, I had to Destroy it entirely. So I Launched more and more slashes until it got truly obliterated. Then I saw my work and smiled. Then a sound rang to my ears
