“Now, how to go about this. I should search them first.”
Victor had just killed the adventurers, and the thought of raiding a dungeon was making his spirit burn with excitent. This was sothing he always read in manga and watched in ani, wishing he could partake in the experience. The only sad thing was that it was impossible. Dungeons didn’t exist back on earth. But now…
He went through the adventurers belongings, and almost instantly found a map. At first, he didn’t know that it was a map, because of the way the device looked. It was a cubical chanic device with a red button on the side. After pressing the button, a holographic image of the entire floor appeared from the item.
“Wow, nice. It seems this world has advanced past my own earth. Maybe the outside has flying cars and giant cha robots… Let’s not think so much about it.”
The device seed to detail out the entire floor he was on presently, although there were so places he noticed were not on the map, it still did an overall ok job. A red dot that updated in real-ti showed where the device was in the cave, therefore, where the person holding it was.
The hologram had a backlight of green, and the cave’s layout and routes was imprinted on the hologram, like a paper map. Victor also saw that there were two points with a red and blue square respectively..
“If the red one is in the direction of the entrance, then the blue one should be for the door that leads to the next floor.” Victor said, as he left the place where he had brought the adventurers.
He turned to observe the zombies, and noticed that they didn’t rush to eat the corpses before them. Maybe it was because they were under his control? He thought. But even after he released one from his control, it still didn’t rush to eat the corpse. This only ant that not all the knowledge he knew from his forr earth were applicable here.
He was just about to leave, but then turned back towards the dead adventurers. “These guys ca here to harvest so valuable ores and treasures, right? Then how did they plan on caring everything back with them?” Victor questioned as he walked closer to the corpses.
He couldn’t underestimate this new world he now found himself in. If there were dungeons and holographic devices, doesn’t that an the existence of such a thing like a storage bag was possible? He simply had to quench his curiosity.
He started ravaging the lifeless bodies, searching for sothing unknown. Maybe it was because he was now an undead, but there was absolutely no feeling of regret or a reparation from his conscience after taking the lives of the adventurers. ‘No need to think about it too much. It’s killed or be killed in my case.’ Victor said in his mind as he finally found sothing in the level five adventurer’s waist.
“How did I not notice sothing so obvious?” Victor battered himself for missing the clear sight of sothing that hung there the whole ti. There was no doubt, it was a storage bag. The looks fit perfectly with what he had thought it to look like.
Just as he was grinning widely after taking the storage bag, the system popped a notification out of nowhere. ‘I haven’t done anything though. Why am I getting a notification?’
Victor went ahead to check, and to keep it short, the system told him that he already had a system inventory, so he really didn’t need the bag. This piece of information threw Victor off a bit.
Previously, he had made sure to check the system well, but he didn’t find any other panel or function available except for his status screen. Now that he had been introduced to the inventory, he couldn’t help but wonder if there were other regions that the system was yet to open up to him. Maybe a shop?
As he opened his status to check, he found that a new tab had appeared above the status panel that read [Inventory], there was also another one that read [Character] beside it. This [Character] was also a new one.
Victor wasted no ti in checking out the new additions, and just like he expected, his inventory was empty. Though, what he didn’t expect was that the inventory size was much. It had exactly 5000 boxes that he could store items. Since one box ant one item, and if so items were stackable, it ant that he had just been blessed.
Next was the character section. Just like a ga, there were sections for each part of his body where he could strap a gear or item on. The sections were head, chest/body, legs/lower section, and arms. There was also provision for rings, which had two boxes respectively. Of course, all the boxes were currently empty. It seed the system didn’t recognize his current outfit as clothes, probably as base wears.
“This is good, but… Can’t I just wear clothes normally? Do I need to use the system?” Victor wondered. To his question, there was only one way to find out.
He took the trouser of one of the adventurers and wore it. He was able to wear it without any problems, so he tried the second option and equipped it through the system. First, he had to move it into his inventory, then equip it by willing it to enter the lower section of the character set up. Luckily, the tabs could opened separately, so it was easy.
He equipped the trouser, and to his astonishnt, it was equipped, but it didn’t appear physically. This perk made Victor grin widely. This was too good. If this was how it is, doesn’t that an he can always walk around with his best equipnt, and nobody would know? He could be naked and still remain invincible!
“Good. Very good.” Victor said as he stood up.
He didn’t mind taking the adventurers’ shirts, as each had a hole through it. However, he unequipped his new trouser. It had no effects, so it would better be used as actual clothing than gear.
Finally, he left the place where the adventurers dead bodies were.
There was sothing he needed to check, and so questions he needed answers to.
It was quite obvious to Victor that levelling up his skills would be extrely costly. He needed to sacrifice so stat points to level up skills, but what about in later levels? The skill will only demand more stat points. He would need to constantly level up if he wanted to increase his skill’s level. This was not at all cost efficient, so he wondered if there was another way.
“System, how much will it cost to level up my skills in later stages? Victor asked.
[Depending on the skill, the amount required varies. The amount of state points required can range from 1 to 50, or more. So skills may require more]
The system’s answer wasn’t at all comforting. Victor could only rub his chin while thinking. “Is there any other way for to level up my skill?”
[There is. As a substitute for stat points, system coins can be used. However, once you choose to use coins, the option of using stat points will no longer be available to you]
“Coins huh? Was I right about the system having a shop? Probably. Why would there be a need for coins if not so?”
After a bit of deliberation, Victor accepted the use of coins over stat points, and just like that, one problem has been solved. Now, the next was..
“Evolution.”
