I always wondered how it would feel to be the Main Character inside a game, in a world where Gods walk among us, how would a character from a videogame survive? Now there might be a liiiiitle problem, I didn't want to become that character. The cover isn't mine, the characters aren't mine apart from MC.
" Put everything you have on the ground if you don't want another hole in your body." A white male said with his face resembling more a skeleton than an actual human.
My brain went overdrive, or at least it wanted to if Gamer's Mind didn't kick in and stopped me from going nuts.
"Dude, why don't we calm down, I mean come on, I am quite sure the last thing that went inside your body isn't food and even if you have a knife I am not sure that would help you." I tried to mock him, yes I tried to mock the dude with a knife who was trying to rob me.

'I wasn't trying to taunt him.'
He didn't stand still after hearing what I said instead he moved forward trying to slash me with his knife.
'Really dude? Even I know knives like that aren't made for slashing.'
I moved accordingly to what my instinct told me to, and got closer to him, his arm now too far to actually hit me with the knife.
I proceeded with a punch in his inner elbow to make the knife fall, and a punch to his chin to stun him.
The thief falls to the ground his knife a few steps away from him.

I stored it with a smile, called the cops from the thief's cellphone and started running away, having to reach school before the bell rang.
After my usual run I was sad I had only gained a point in Vit from the run, but happy from seeing a book glowing inside the library.
I immediately approached it and learnt the new skill, while heading to the librarian to borrow the book.
The new skill I learned is called Opportunist, and it amplifies the damage caused by Critical hits and the chance of them happening, the prerequisites were Str and CQC at least at 15 and having Taunt.
The skill name made me kind of feel bad but I wasn't the Gamer master so I had no control over the names and descriptions of skills.
I arrived in time for my first period and started readying a book related to the subject, to receive a boost from hearing the lecture and from readying a book related to the skill.

My brain hurts.
Jokes aside, the only thing I wanted right now was to get something under my teeth and not think about anything.
For some strange reason, the world didn't want that to happen.
While I was getting to the school cafeteria the sound of a WALL falling could be heard in the corridor, and what do you know, Lizard and Spiderman are fighting... LIZARD AND SPIDERMAN ARE FIGHTING.

SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT.
My brain had already gone overdrive while a plan started formulating, like hell, I fought against him, I checked his level, it was above 100, and I was still level 3, so I would help the others get out.
I activated Hyperfocus and moved faster than I ever did, reaching for the fire extinguisher and opening it.
"USE THIS," I said while throwing it towards Spiderman, you thought I would use it? I won't get near Lizard even with a kilometre-long stick... and a gun.
Spiderman quickly catches on to my plan and uses his webs to catch the fire extinguisher and smash against Lizard's face.
'Not really my plan but it works.'
Stunned by the cold it didn't have the time to react to Spidey's punch which him to fly into another classroom.
Now free from the danger I looked around, trying to find anyone in immediate danger.
The vision had me almost puking, what I thought was only a smashed wall incident, had actually led to the death of several kids, various serious injuries and some light ones.
Steeling my nerves I rushed towards them and started speaking.
"WHOEVER HAS A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT FIRST AID HELPS THE OTHERS, THE ONES WITH LESS SERIOUS INJURIES HELP THE OTHERS, THE OTHERS MUST STAY IN THE POSITION THEY CURRENTLY ARE IN," I said while using the knowledge I had gained through my mother's stories.
I am a nurse's son, and like hell, I will let so many people die in front of me.
In a quick fluid motion, I removed my jacket ripped it into several pieces and gave several to people with light injuries to help stop the bleeding of the more serious ones.
Having stopped the bleeding, the only problem remaining of broken bones puncturing organs or muscles.
If it was an organ I had not much I could do apart from praying that help would come soon, if the bones instead had just pierced the muscles, or had remained inside the body, I helped set it back and create something they could use to walk away.
I had become a machine, uncaring of the fight happening not far from here, and only thinking of ways I would help others, the knowledge I could have saved even just one more life didn't let me stop.
Until the world obliged me to.
I was just about to set another bone back in place when a hand stopped me.
It was a man wearing what I recognized as the Swat attire, a gun pointed at the ground and several others just like him recusing the kids I had helped.
I slowly realised the leg and finally realized how much blood I was covered in, not even a single drop of it came from my body.
I slowly turn towards the agent who is now clenching his fist seeing the damage caused by the fight.
" Did I help?"
The head of the Swat snaps towards me, and after stalling for a few seconds he finally answers.
"Yes, you did."
I slowly got up from the ground, hoping my legs wouldn't wobble because of how mentally exhausted I was.
"Good."
And then I fainted.
