EARTH , JAIPUR, Time 2023

9:37Pm

We see Sanyam and his friends were running away from that "monster" , they were smart they didn't dare to shout or scream because they didn't want to attract that monster and get killed by him .

"Huff…Huff ..Huff what should we do now? where should we run? " Aryan says while panting. They were all scared and out of breath .

" Huff .Huff … ha … ha …. I guess first we should go back to hostel , right now I can't think of a place to hide " says Karan while breathing heavily .

" But there are other students , if we go there , they will also be in trouble because of us ." says Aryan

" We know that but right now our life is more important for us , in this world you should care about yourself then others , life is not that fair , but if you want to live just listen to Karan " says Sanyam

" Uhhhh ok let's go " says Aryan .

After that they ran toward their hostel , they didn't tell anything to any adults because they wouldn't understand without seeing it , they all rushed to their room .

When they reached their room they all calmed down, they called their parents they told them about this incident but even their parents didn't trusted them , they cried they shouted , they send the pictures of them drenched in blood but still their parent couldn't trust them completely their parents were obviously worried but they thought they got in a fight .they cuts phone .

"What the hell? Karan , Aryan they are not even trusting me their own son , why? " Sanyam shouted while crying .

" Obviously , monsters kind of things are from comic books and tv shows , they won't believe you at all , even mine and Karan's parents didn't trusted us " says Aryan with a tensed face .

" then I guess we should go meet other at least they will trust us . I mean atleast that what I think " says Karan .

Then they go to 6th floor of hostel and knock the door of their friend's room . then someone opens a room he was black and a giant man he was wearing glasses and casual clothes .

" Parikshit … where are Mudit and Param " asks Sanyam to that black giant man.

" they are here even Rakshit and Sharad are here too by the way why are you guys in rush and, you guys smell pretty bad , what happened to you guys " responds Parikshit

"a lot things happened we"ll explain you about that but first let us in " says Aryan .

Sanyam and friends enter the room there are 5 more people other than Sanyam , Karan and Aryan one was Parikshit ,second one is a boy with fair skin and muscular body he is called "Mudit" ,3rd one is a boy with specs a beard he was called Param , 4th one was a boy who was looking very young considering his face he had a baby face named Sharad, 5th one was a brown skin and a short height boy called Rakshit . after they offer the three boys water and ask them to explain the situation they were worried that they must've got in a fight .

"ok ok we will now explain what happened to us but first promise you will trust us even its sounds like stupid or a made up story " says Aryan .

"yaa ya we promise now hurry up " says all

Then Aryan again explain the whole thing to Parikshit and others without leaving a point from that monster appearance or how he killed Manish and why are they smelling bad .

" ahahahhahahahahah nice joke buddy do you really think we will believe that " says Rakshit

"hahhahaha Monster seriously its not a anime buddy " laughs Mudit and others

" I know you all would not believe us but still please believe us , see there is blood over us " they all cried and even shouted at them .

Then others took it seriously but still can't believe the story they told

But then Karan begged them to believe them , then it was a room full of silence because these boys made a group when they entered the college it's the most influential , strong and prideful and among them Karan was the pure definition of pride but when he begged . Parikshit and other stopped doubting them and believed them

Then to counter they started collecting everything they need in this crisis

After a while ...…..

We see that green Monster killing everyone in his way and then he reached the main gate of hostel and "BANG" he destroyed the gate and entered and when guard saw that thing he didn't even try to move and then "Shing…" even his head got slashed and he didn't get a chance to run then he start killing everyone on ground floor everyone ran toward stairs to climb the upper floors and because of that chaos everyone from hostel opened their door came to the gallery to see what happen even Sanyam, Karan and Aryan and other also got to know about the arrival of that monster and after that Parikshit and others believed Karan completely

" now what should we do " ask Aryan to everyone

Karan started thinking and responds " lets first collect our phones then some resources because now we have no choice to run from here "

" hmm correct lets put some sharp things for survival weapon and ya how could we forget the rod from our almirahs and break the sofa so that we can use paw foot(sofa foot) as a heavy weapon" says Mudit and everyone started working on it

" Parikshit you have lighter " says Sanyam

" uhh yes " responds Parikshit

"ok lets take that too and Param , Rakshit you guys take off the curtain so that we can burn them to distract the Monster when we started running " says Sanyam

" Yup good idea " says Aryan .

" well take perfumes and sanitizer or anything that stoke the fire " adds Aryan .

Then we see that the Monster started climbing the other floors too and when boys were packing he was already at 3rd floor and killed hundreds of students .

" he's nearly here hurry up guys " says Sharad

" almost done , ya now we are ready " says Param

" Ok now that we are ready so we have to think from where should we run " says Parikshit

" see currently from that call that I received from other students while we were packing he is coming from front stairs " says Param

" then lets take the back stairs for now and try to save few more people as a decoy " says Karan .

"DECOY.. you want to use them as decoy " Aryan got shocked

" well if they want to come with us they have to put their on line " says Sanyam .

After that they took the back stairs and when they were running downstairs the monster was also climbing the 4th floor and when boys reached the 4th floor they encountered that monster face to face .

Monster was coming from front stair and boys were running downstairs and when they meet at some point . the whole environment got tensed after that monster roars

" oh my god he's huge " says Parikshit

" I got a near hear attack .ahah" says Rakshit

"ok it was expected do as planned " says Sanyam in serious tone

"ok" everyone agrees

They unfolded those curtain that were already tied with first corner with sofa foots as weights and they throwed the curtains on monster face to block its vision then they sprayed perfume and poured the sanitizer bottles on curtains and enflamed it with the use of lighter .

Monster roared again .....

"now run " Aryan shouted

They started running downstairs and when they were running downwards , Monster removed those curtains off his face and said "@#$%#$#$"something in a gibberish language , then a sphere appeared from which another monster appeared which was looking like his minion he was of a human size he also had a sword in his hand and he started running toward the boys .

After a while they reached ground floor and saw a person was running toward them from their back he was looking like a mini version of that monster he was very fast he also had a sword

" what is that , now" says Aryan

"maybe his son" says Karan .

"Don't joke around Karan its his underling I guess we can fight it maybe take down but right now we don't have enough space to fight him so lets lure him outside with us and take him down and find a another place " says Sanyam

"hmm he's shorter than me we can defeat it together but first lets head out " says Parikshit while running

"ok" everyone agreed .

Then they lured that mini monster from hostel to outside of university campus . then when monster and boys were facing each other . that monster ran toward them .

" ok now guys make a trap that we talked about " says Sanyam

" Alright " says everyone

Then they all split in four groups and facing north ,west , east and when monster ran toward northern group the southern group came , monster was swinging his sword without even realizing he was in centre and trapped then , they use those rods on which they tied forks and knifes and used that as a spear to stab him, when north group stabbed him , monster started attacking them then other groups stabbed him and Parikshit used paw foot to smash monster's head and then monster dropped his sword because of pain and he grabbed his head and when they found opening Mudit penetrated monster's throat and monster died on the spot .

" wohoho that's amazing " says Sharad .

"hahaha we beat this stupid monster hahahahah " says Rakshit while laughing

"everyone good job " says Sanyam .

" Parikshit you take this sword you're tall and lifts weights you can use this sword better than this and this sword looks pretty heavy" says Aryan

"ok" Parikshit takes the sword

"ok what should we do now we are safe now " says Param

" Hmm I guess we should go to that nearby warehouse and hide and rest there for now " says Karan

" do you even have keys for that warehouse door or we'll break it too " says Sharad

"we don't need any keys nor we have to break it that's an abandoned warehouse , Sanyam and me often goes there , and it was once used for storing metal resource , we can get some tools for weapons too " says Karan

"hmm ok fine" everyone agrees

Then they reached that warehouse, and get inside it and hides and were going rest then suddenly a blackish white orb appeared

" now what the hell is this " asks Rakshit in fear .

" a ball monster , I guess " says confused Sharad

" I'm not a ball monster "PLAYER Sharad" " says that black orb

" that ball said something , it even knows our language" says Sanyam

"maybe it's kind of a A.I " says Aryan.

"Beep, Beep " PLAYER Aryan" I'm not A.I , I'm " says that black ball and it transformed into a human figure who was looking the same person we saw on top of that tower .

" My name is "AZUREKAIZU" but you can call me Azz" says that person

" So Mr, AZZ, what do you need from us " says Sanyam

"Ahh .."Mr" finally someone respected their Helper , so " Player Sanyam " I'm here to tell you about Game rules"

"Game rules… what type of game …. Do you know about those monster, why are they killing us, Why are you calling us Player , is this afterlife "says Rakshit

"kufufufu..haha calm down " Player Rakshit I'm here only to answer all your confusions and answer those questions " says Azz

" First of all you're alive and not dead and I'm very impressed that you're still alive , second I know about those monster , those monsters are called "NAN OGRES" , and why are they killing is because of connectivity of tower , I know you didn't understand a thing so I'll give you a summary so first of all this is 1081th reincarnation era and gods made a game called "Tower of void" for why they didn't tell me just because I'm only a "Helper", in this game gods connected 108 universes floor by floor as a tower to make a game in which Players from one universe climb to another floor and do a task given by "Tower of void" and after completing this game they can make their universe supreme realm and immortal , easy right ." explains azz

" whhhat .. what the hell is this .. you want us to fight those monster just because you want to entertain the gods" says Param

"God's can't do that with us he's the supreme being he care about his follower more than anything how can you speak those stupid things . Azz he don't want us die" says Rakshit while crying

" Aah god's don't want you guys to die , it's a game , it's an opportunity to grow strong and achieve great things , why are you taking this in a negative way " says azz

" what do you mean by opportunity we are not idiot to play this stupid games" says Mudit

" I'm not giving you options , you have to play it no matter what " says Azz

" Don't involve us in this stupidity , who is that fucking idiotic god who made this game , I'll kill that bastard " says Sharad

"SHINGGGG…" a loud sound of sword slash got heard , azz without any emotions on his face he pulled a slim sword from that staff that he was holding and killed Sharad right way .

"DON'T YOU DARE DISRESPECT MY LORD" says Azz in a loud voice

A moment of silence ....

" OH you all got scared sorry about that , see now you will believe nothing is fair here , now do you want to hear rules or...." Says azz

" NO sorry Mr azz we'll listen" says Sanyam with a scared face

"Hahaha thankyou " Player Sanyam" , you know what I like you , you're not disturbing me or creating problems for me" says Azz

" so First of all you will climb tower as I told you and what mission you will get will be random too so you can play this solo ,duo, trio even with 100000 people can play together , in this tower your EARTH is floor number 5 so in this game only earthling are not the only one who are participating , players from other floors are participating it will be battle of other races , if you invade an other world you have to complete the missions, and if you get invaded by them you have to stop them from doing that well defending is very essential so that your people don't die from other races , well killing is allowed , everything that you can't do until now will be useless talks , so now behold the power of "Tower of void" " says Azz

" so Mr Azz how will we fight them they can be stronger than us that monster we saw at our hostel was stronger than hundred's of people , this is not a fair fight, main point how will we understand the language of other races because communication is the strongest weapon a person can have" says Aryan

"na na don't worry gentlemen you will get the ability to talk in universal language even now what you're speaking is the effect of universal language so now other races can understand you " says AZZ

"oh ok" says Parikshit

" and this game is fair as I told you this is a game and you're like the unique characters of this game so all people will get unique skills to fight others , you will be able to use magic and stuff " says AZZ

" hmmm" says Mudit

"and ofcourse it's a game so there is a levelling system so more you level up the power you get , amazing right" says Azz in a excited voice

" Hmm so why are those "NAN ORCS " are here is this game already started " Sanyam asks

"no you have 10 days to prepare and those "NAN ORCS " are inspectors , they are just checking that your world is connected to the "Tower of Void" and those are like opponent that you have to kill before 10 days , its your mission for now" says AZZ

"so how will we check that we have levelled up " Karan asks

"oh that's easy just shout "STATUS WINDOW" you'll see your level and stats on downside your own skill " says Azz

"uh ok , "STATUS WINDOW" " says Karan

Then everyone repeats….."STATUS WINDOW"

Then they checks their stats , their level was 1, their strength , agility, durability , magic power and something called chaos power , their all stats were equal but chaos power was different

First we see Parikshit stats , all stats were 1 excluding chaos energy his chaos energy was 5

ULTIMATE SKILL – BEGGAR (S)

"ohhh im shocked a (S) rank skill it's a rare skill that's why you didn't get unique skill , you directly got a ultimate skill , congratulation "Player Parikshit"" says Azz

Second, Rakshit stats, all stats were same as Parikshit

ULTIMATE SKILL – KING OF CRAFTSMENSHIP (S)

" oh my my another ULTIMATE SKILL , congratulation " Player Rakshit" " says azz

Third , Param stats, all stats were same as other two

ULTIMATE SKILL – SOUND MANIPULATION (S)

"Whhhhhaaatt another (S) class " says shocked Azz

Fourth , Mudit stats , all stats were same except chaos energy his chaos energy was 7

SUPREME SKILL – DECENDANT OF GREED KING MAMMON (SS)

" I'm gonna die a (SS) class skill my lord what am I witnessing " says Azz

Fifth , Aryan stats , all stats were same as Mudit even chaos energy was same

SUPREME SKILL – DECENDANT OF SLOTHFUL KING BELPHEGOR

" ..... , WHHHHHHAAAAATTTTT skill of lord Belphegor seriously , what the hell do I have to serve him now , congratulation " Player Aryan" " says Azz

Sixth , Karan stats , all stats were same but chaos energy was 10

COSMIC SKILL – DECENDANT OF GOD OF HELL YAMA (SSS)

"...…. I GREET THE SUPREME LORD THE DECENDANT OF THE GOD OF HELL "SIR KARAN"...….." Azz salutes in respect

Then Karan says " ok ok I understand let's see Sanyam's stats"

"Uhh ok" says Azz

Seventh , Sanyam stats , all stats were same but chaos energy was 20

UNIQUE SKILL(PEAK VERSION) – PHEONIX OF HELL (AAA)

EXTRA SKILL ( LOWEST GRADE) – UNIMAIN(F) (growth type)

"Aah finally a unique skill don't be sad " PLAYER Sanyam" your skill is top in your league " says Azz when he finally calm down

"hey Azz why Sanyam got two skills not one" asks Param

"Oh that's simple to make game fair because there is a very good difference between (AAA) rank and (S)rank, that's why someone less than with skill less than (S) rank get a extra skill which will always be lower than (S) rank , but the most I'm confused about is that his chaos energy doubles "SIR Karan" because chaos energy is like a supreme energy because no matter how good your skill is chaos energy always turns the thing down , so I guess even he didn't get (S) rank skill he created a miracle of his own hahah " says Azz

"ok then now you all got your skills , now I'll tell you something about your skills , there are sub skills for example on level 1 you get 1 skill then level 100 you get 2nd skill and 3rd on level 1000 and so on and if you're curious about how to use your skills or magic you just need to think them as your own body part you can order yourself to use your skills it's all on you how you use it so enjoy kill those inspector and goodbye" says Azz and then he disappears

"So what should we do "SIR KARAN" hahahahhahaha" says Aryan

"hahahahahha" everyone laughs

"stop saying that it's super embarrassing" says Karan while laughing

"so Mr leader Sanyam what should we do" says Mudit

"ok listen first of all everyone tell about your 1st skill " says Sanyam

"ok mine is to borrow someone's 5%power for 30 seconds I can stack 3 skills at a time and I can only borrow skills of a rank lower than myself , btw if I borrow someone skill that doesn't mean that person can't use his power he can use it at full potential" says Parikshit

"mine is riding sound waves to accelerate myself at 10 time my speed" says Param

"well mine is like creating metal tools from scrap of metals without any knowledge or effort" says Rakshit

"mine is to steal and stack someone's power once they are dead I can only stack 2 power for now and I will only get subskill to level 2" says Mudit

"if you can steal a dead person's power then steal Sharad's power as he's dead now, he will help us in a indirect way" says Sanyam

"ohh ok" says Mudit

"I got it" says Mudit

"what is it" asks Sanyam

"well system is currently processing it" says Mudit

"woooow that's broken " says Parikshit

"ok mine is to increase my stats while sleeping if I sleep 10 hours my all stats will be +10 and I can use that power for 2minutes after using those +10 will be erased " says Aryan

"talk about broken , then Aryan is at top" says Mudit

"mine is to create and manipulate hell binds that are chains of black steel with spikes all over it and I can summon it from anywhere and those chains are unbreakable " says Karan

"we got the main attack power wohoho " Param laughs

"hmm, good I got a skill called Flame infusion I can infuse any part of my body with flame and my flame is opposite of phoenix flame it damages things badly it's a offensive skill" says Sanyam

"OOOhhh that's great what about second one Sanyam " asks Param

"well it's the lowest grade I don't think I'll use it " says Sanyam

"hmm ok , so what now Mr leader" says Karan

"Well it's time for revenge" says Sanyam Coldly
