Re: Twilight Gamer ( Twilight / The Gamer )

[WhiteAuthor]

His mind was quickly recovering, though it still felt as if he was looking at everything through a thick fog in comparison to how he usually felt.

Staring at Jeannie who was sitting on the ground, back leaned against the wall, her eyes a dull colour and a dazed expression on her face, Alan felt soft relief slowly start coursing through his body as the terror slowly started subsiding.

'Fuck… fuck fuck fuck, that was dangerous, that was so fucking scary. What if it noticed something or it killed me or…. This was the dumbest decision that I've ever made in my fucking life. Go get stoned, get drugged up, and I was feeling so god damn overconfident too. Ten intelligence my ass, im a fucking dumbass, im dumb as fucking bircks.' Alan thought to himself as he quickly opened up his status panel.

'Status' The second he thought of the word, the blue holographic panel appeared before him.

[ Agility: 0/350 ]

[ Luck: 0/500 ]

[ Normal Stat Points Left: 0]

[ Status: Semi-Complete Magical Drug Intoxication ] [ Intelligence Stat: -5 ]

Looking over his status screen, Alan felt his relief quickly intensify as his eyes moved up and down on the panel and thankfully he didn't see it.

'There's no possession, thank god. My theory that I need multiple doses was correct, but theres something else that's concerning… I'm in a semi complete intoxication and yet my intelligence stat got debuffed more than the others, is it just that the drugs drops the intelligence to one automatically when its in full effect, whilst when its just semi, it only halves it… thats why they could still remember somewhat what happened the last time.' Alan thought as he slowly realised what had actually happened.

Earlier during the day, the three of his friends had told him about remembering the good side effects of the drug, something they clearly wouldn't have been able to do if they had been in the current state that they were in.

'So it takes multiple doses, atleast two before someone gets into this… dazed state or whatever they're in and maybe even more but it depends on the persons body for the possession?' Alan thoughts continued before a soft headache started all around his head, it felt like his mind was being slowly squished.

'Hurts… just that much and I'm already hurting? Is it another side effect? Fuck, can't think. Let's just get the hell out of here.' Alan thought as he lifted his right hand and ran it through his hair for a moment before slowly getting up from the wooden armchair and walking towards the window.

Stopping at it for a moment, he looked down at Jeannie who was sat on the ground, basically unconscious and then at the two boys behind him in a similar state on the couches.

'Sorry… I would have called an ambulance or something if this was a normal situation… but I can't risk it.' Alan thought in his mind before releasing a soft sigh as he felt another pang of pain pierce through the side of his head.

Shaking the thoughts and slight guilt out of his mind, Alan put a hand on the window and vaulted over it and down onto the emergency stair case down below.

*Klang*

The sound of metal rattling was heard as he landed onto the metallic staircase, his vision a slight dazed blur for a moment before it refocused as he got up from his crouched landing position and quickly started heading down the stairs and onto the street below.

'Right, fuck. I'm atleast an hour away on foot from my apartment. I fucking forgot.' Alan thought to himself however he didn't even bother calling for anyone else, he knew a few people but he couldn't exactly trust them and they were just regular humans, humans that he didn't want to get involved into this mess that he had found himself in.

The other option was Alice Cullen and it was pretty clear as to why he didn't want to message the person who he knew with certainty wasn't a human and at the same time knew nothing about, didn't know her intentions, didn't know her alignment, or anything at all really. He barely knew a bit of her personality and even that could have been faked.

Walking down the road, his feet moving quickly, not quite running, he couldn't withstand that with his low strength, agility was usually the stat related to speed and running, however he had found that if one didn't have enough strength, they could barely even stand up, let alone run down the street.

*Sigh*

"Just get home and head into the dungeon, if im correct about my theory on me getting regenerated every time that I level up then I should be able to fully recover as soon as I level up and get rid of the drugs effects on me." Alan muttered under his breath as he kept speed walking whilst keeping his head down low, hoping to not gather any attention from anyone.

If anyone saw his face afterall, they'd instantly suspect something was wrong, his skin was pale, his pupils were wide and his sclera was bloodshot.

Hey Alice, there is someone passing around magical weed and inducing possession. . . You interested in helping. . . .hello?

 

[WhiteAuthor]

~ Alan heads home, shocked about his findings. Gathers his things and heads into the dungeon for hours, overnight since everytime he levels up, his status refreshes. Unlocks level 5, Zombie Dungeon. Gets some gear and all of that stuff with bronze coins.

Almost an hour later, the sun already starting to slowly fall down on the horizon, Alan finally arrived at his apartment, heading inside and closing the door quietly behind him, his mind still feeling like a fog, he walked towards his bed and laid down before opening up the system dungeon menu.

'System Dungeon.' He thought in his mind and instantly the holographic panel appeared before him.

[ System Dungeon ]

[ Dummy Dungeon ] [ Level 1 ] [ Join ]

[ ???? Dungeon ] [ Level 5 ]

[ ???? Dungeon ] [ Level 50 ]

[ ???? Dungeon ] ….

…

'Join' Alan thought and instantly without even moving his finger, the button was clicked as his vision similarly to the last time he had entered started darkining, his senses slowly dulling until he could see, hear, smell or feel anything at all in absolute darkness as if he was in a lightless space in the universe.

A mere moment later, his senses fully returned and he found himself back in the same position he had left the dungeon in, laid down on the green perfect grass, his face facing at the strange unnatural purple cloudless sky.

Slowly getting up, by using his hands as help, Alan remembered that he had forgotten his weapon before he had come inside the dungeon.

'Fuck, I wasn't even thinking.' Alan thought however at that moment as his mind went to it, something changed, a slight pressure appearing on the base of his palm and then a split second later, he felt something appearing in it, as his hand instinctively grasped it, feeling the small weight of the object.

[ Weapon: Rusted Bread Knife has been summoned ]

Looking at the small knife that had appeared out of thin air into his hand, Alan's eyes widened for a moment before a soft relieved sigh escaped him.

'Thank god, I didn't want to actually have to leave and come back here but I wouldn't have had a choice, defeating these things is already a pain in the ass with it, even though it only gives me a plus two boost to my damage, when my damage without it is two, its effectively a double boost to my damage.' Alan thought as he turned towards the closest Straw Dummy that he could find and walked towards it.

'Alright, Just need… to defeat four of them.' Alan thought, already feeling like his mind would explode from exhaustion before he even came close to it.

As he arrived infront of the dummy and raised his hand holding the knife, taking a deep breath for a moment and then releasing it as he swung downwards with all the strength he could and attacking directly towards the part that connected the head and torso of the straw dummy.

'Observe.' Alan thought as he used his skill instantly after the attack.

[ Straw Dummy ] [ Level 0 ]

[ Health points: 97/100 ]

'Three? Right, I'm not in top shape, even if my strength didn't actually get decreased, my body is too relaxed to actually use the strength that i have. It's why I had so much trouble even walking home. Fuck.'

Minutes passed, his right hand raising up and then falling down over and over again, the skin on his palms slowly turning raw from having to use all of his force to both grip the knife handle and swing down towards the dummies.

Almost fifteen minutes later, fifteen minutes that had felt like pure torture and immense exhaustion, he finally achieved it.

[ Ding! ]

[ User has defeated Straw Dummy. ]

[ 10 Experience Points Gained. ]

[ 1 Bronze Coin Looted. ]

'One… one down. Just three more to go.' Alan thought to himself as he slowly walked towards the next Straw Dummy, almost swaying on his feet, his footing feeling like he was on some kind of ship in the middle of a rainstorm in the sea.

The second Straw Dummy took even longer. Around twenty five minutes.

[ Ding! ]

[ User has defeated Straw Dummy. ]

…
'Just… two more.' Alan thought, his mind having grown even wearier than before from the combination of the drugs effects and the physical exhaustion.

Heading towards the third Straw Dummy, he had to switch to his left hand, even though the damage would be lowered even further, to a mere two points of damage, and sometimes even one, he had no choice, his main arm felt like it was going to fall off already.

*Fsshh*

*Stchhh*

*Fshhh*

*Stcchh*

Swing after swing, he continued, his mind faltering and growing duller and yet his will never once did, it wasn't that he was some disciplined fighter or some kind of monk with immense willpower, it was simply the adrenaline that was still coursing through him, the terror of his interaction with the possesion, they were all emotions that were currently fueling him to go past lengths that would have previously made him give up.

[ User has defeated Straw Dummy. ]

[ User has gained 10 Experience Points ]

[ 1 Bronze Coin has been Looted ]

[ Alan Walker ]

[ Level 2 ] [ 30/40 Experience Points. ]

'Just one more…. Just need one more.' Alan thought, even his thoughts having mostly cleared, only leaving the desire to defeat the last opponent in his path to what he felt was his survival.

Arriving at the last Straw Dummy, in what could barely be called a walk, it resembled more of a scene if one tried to crawl whilst standing up.

[ -1Hp ]

[ -1Hp ]

[ -1Hp ]

His attack damage had fallen down to one, even with his main arm, his non dominant one had already become useless, not dealing any more damage whilst using it.

It took fourty two long minutes, of taking constant long breaks inbetween each swing to gather his strength once more before each swing, for the thing to finall crack and fall down onto the ground in a heap of straw and wooden sticks that were quickly disappearing into white motes of light.
