Kai Xin was the guy who came from Japan. He was living the dream, attending the most expensive university, driving the most expensive cars, and traveling abroad whenever he pleased.
But they all faded away after something tragic happened to him. It has the potential to change his life in a world where he can experience extreme pain and a miserable life that he has never recognised in his 21 years of existence.

First and foremost. A blue elevated screen appeared in front of him, providing enough light to shine in his eyes.
He can understand all of the contexts on his screen since most of them were explanatory words. Furthermore, the setting was similar to the game RPG online he played.
RPG Online was a popular game all over the world as it allowed people to earn a lot of money by playing it. The mechanics of the game were straightforward; players had to fight various monsters in order to receive two rewards. The first reward was called EXPERIENCE (EXP), and it allowed the player to level up and improve the fighting abilities of their characters. The second reward was divided into items that were the MONSTER'S CORE that could be obtained after defeating a specific monster and sold on the market. While the second one was called DROPPED ITEMS (LOOTS), the item would improve your character's fighting ability, etc.
But this game was ended with that as this game had a large scope like Dungeon, Quest, 5v5 Valor tournament, and Characters' Class that would be explained from time to time.
Furthermore, how could he remember this information if he can't even remember how he got here? Because he spent so much time playing this game, he sometimes dreamed that he was inside of it. But it seemed there was another explanation behind this information.
He shrugged his shoulders to calm himself as he unintentionally accepted the survival quest that had occurred to him.
"Sh*t, this is my only option right now—"
Kai couldn't finish his sentence as the massive brown door sucked him inside. He hugged the post to keep his body from moving, but the post cracked and exploded in front of his face.
Boom!
The explosion jolted him, and it was also the reason he removed his hands from the post. In his mind, its sharp particles could blind him. No, he wasn't exaggerating; he was simply avoiding a possible scenario.
Thud! Thud! Thud!

He was rolling on the dried ground several times as a red screen flashed in front of his eyes. Besides, this type of situation was inevitable there was nothing he could rely on.
[HP: 116/120]
Suddenly, he noticed that his health power had been reduced by 4 health points. To be more specific, every time he could feel pain, this was a possible outcome that could happen to him.
Of course, Kai was cautious once his health power was reduced to zero. So, in his opinion, he needed to be wary with all of his decisions and movements as he had no idea how many points would be deducted from him.
"Ouch... My head landed on something."
He said these words unconcernedly, slowly scratching the back of his head. He then looked up to see why he had come to a halt.
Gulp!
Kai sucked his saliva and shook his sweaty hands. To be more specific, he has no idea how he allegedly reacted when the new creature charged at him.
"Wait, what the hell is this?"
His eyes widened when he saw a creature that new to his eyes. But first and foremost, he quickly regained his footing in order to avoid the sharp attack aimed at his head. That creature appeared to want to use his weapon to sever him into two pieces.
Swish!
Boom!
Kai was able to avoid the sudden attack while seeing the ground fragments scattered in the air in an instant.
"W-why is there a skeleton here?!" he stuttered, as the torch close to the monster illuminated its outward appearance.
To describe it, it had yellow aggressive gleaming eyes, stood 75 centimeters tall, wielded a rusted sword with a wooden handle and shield, and had the skinny physique of a skeleton.
This type of monster was appropriately named [Warrior Skeleton]. It was an aggressive monster that would attack as soon as they saw a human. But the good thing was that it was only an LVL 1 monster, which was ideal for beginners looking to gain experience.
Meanwhile, he was blinking his eyes in confusion, perplexed as to how he could easily cover 20 meters against this monster in less than a second.
"Where did I get this insane speed-?"
And once again, he couldn't finish his sentence as the monster dashed towards him, seemingly eager to kill him. Knowing that rusty sword could deal a lot of damage gave him a reason to move and increase their distance from each other.
Nevertheless, he was looking around to find a path where he can escape. In his mind, it was far better if he avoided an unnecessary fight as he lacked a specific weapon to protect himself.
From a distance, he could see three different paths leading to different destinations. But the main issue here was that each tunnel gradually released three more aggressive skeletons who would undoubtedly attack him in no time.
In addition, before he could reach the tunnels, he was surrounded by a vast platform that appeared to be 200 or 250 square meters in size. There were rock boulders strewn about the place that seemed appropriate for a certain person to hide in. Above him was a flat ceiling with a sharp rock formation on it.
He narrowly tilted his head and examined the location of the brown door from earlier. Kai was taken aback when he discovered the door had vanished for no apparent reason.
"Sh*t! This is bad! I have to do something to get out of here," he said solemnly, leaving him with the option of killing the four warrior skeletons in order to escape.
But what could he do in this situation? The only problem was that he was alone and had no a weapon to deal with the monsters in front of him. He also admitted that he was afraid of combating the monsters since he lacked proper fighting skills.
It occurred to him to hide behind the boulder, but he changed his mind after seeing the monsters sniffing around for his precise location. These skeletons appeared to be aware that there was someone here with a different scent. Aside from that, he must accept the fact that one of the monsters is charging at him. As a result, hiding wasn't the best option.
For a few seconds, Kai stood dumbfounded in front of the monster, listening to the sound of footsteps that grew louder and louder as the monster approached.
Meanwhile, he flinched as his nose detected a rotten odor. He saw a skeleton close the 23-meter mark into 7 meters at this point. It was swinging its skinny right arm as it pursued the rusted sword.
"I can't afford to die here," he said to himself as he considered how to avoid or counterattack the incoming attack.
In his mind, he has to lower his body slightly within the monster's given height in order to block the monster's radial and stop the 30-centimeter sword from coming at him.
He eventually shook his head as he realized that wasn't a good idea in this situation. Why? Because he needed to take a step forward in order for the sword to reach him before he could block it. Furthermore, he lacked the confidence to do so because he had never fought before. At the same time, if he reacted, the monster would almost certainly change his attack sequence.
Swish!
The skeleton fully swung its sword, but the monster's attack simply sliced the air again.
Argh!
It screamed annoyingly enough for the other monsters to track them down and charge at them. But first, Kai took a step back to the right side, where the sword was impossible for him to wield.
Well, the was quite a decision since the monster's attack was going to the left side.
"What?" He said as he couldn't believe that he was able to dodge the attack.
When he notices the monster, it does not immediately regain its grit and determination. He then took advantage of the opportunity to grab the monster's right arm and launch a massive kneel directly into its face.
Crack!
His ears picked up on the sound of bones cracking. He knew the fight wasn't over, though, because he noticed it still had the strength to go on. As a result, he quickly twisted its right arm to seize the sword.
Ahh!
The monster screamed in agony, struggling to eat Kai's flesh despite its predicament. Nonetheless, Kai had no intention of giving the monster a chance, swinging the sword directly on its neck.
Swish!
The skeleton's head fell to the ground as its body emitted green smoke that resembled the rotten scent he had smelled earlier.
