Rodney was the only one not retreating, he wanted to make sure that he got as many men as possible out of the range of the bear.He saw one of his men who was trying to run away and had gotten his leg entangled in a dried tree branch lying on the floor. He quickly ran to his side and was trying to free his leg from the branch when he heard his men calling out to him;"Commander!""Look out!""Huh?" Rodney retorted and looked up only to find himself face to face with the most terrifying sight of his life.While he was busy trying to rescue his subordinate, he lost focus of the bear for a brief moment, and that brief moment was enough for the bear to leap through the air for an attack.He looked up just in time to see the bear sailing through the air to descend on him."Shit..." He muttered, "I messed up..."****Jason walked silently through the dried-up forest that was completely covered in ice. It amused him how a snow-covered forest looked peaceful and serene compared to a forest in
The bear growled at James and continued circling him. It seemed it was hesitating to attack him because he was stronger than the rest, it was looking for a suitable opening to launch its attack."I see..." James nodded slowly. "You can't reply to me... Well, no matter what your reply is, I won't accept it, that's because nothing can justify what you did here."With that last statement, James jumped toward the bear and the bear used that opportunity to jump towards him too.James was naturally faster than the bear, so it had already lost before the fight even began. James sailed through the air like a rocket and punched the bear under its jaw.The punch was so hard that the sound of cracking bone filled the air and no one needed to be told that James had cracked the skull of a monster bear with just his fists. The impact of James' punch did not end at the skull, it also delivered intense trauma to the bear's brain as the force from the punch threw it into the sky.The hunters couldn't
"Yeah," James affirmed, "all the way from Graylon City. Do you know how I can get back there?""Graylon City?" Rodney retorted.James instantly knew from Rodney's reaction that he was a long way from home."That's in another entirely different continent!""Shit!" James exclaimed and kicked the snow that was on the floor. "Shit!" He exclaimed as he walked to the side to stare into the nothingness of the snowy forest.He stayed there staring for a long time Rodney was tempted to ask him what he was thinking about but he thought twice about it and decided to keep quiet and watch what James would do next.After what seemed like forever, James finally spoke up, "Is there any way to leave this place and go back to my city? Like an airport or train station, or anything like that?" "Hm...." Rodney put his hand on his chin briefly as if he was thinking, "There's an airport around here.""Great!" James' face brightened up, "where–""But–" James' face froze at that word and he suddenly became
"He's just a man who saved our lives..." Rodney shrugged, "he's not from around here so he's looking for a way to go back. I offered to accommodate him for the night as gratitude for saving our lives."Octavius scowled at Rodney and turned to James with a look of displeasure on his face.Rodney noticed this look of displeasure on Octavius' face and asked him, "What's the matter?"Octavius turned back to Rodney without taking the scowl away from his face and replied, "I don't like him. He smells like trouble. You should send him away tonight."Rodney was slightly annoyed by this statement so he grabbed Octavius by his sleeve and pulled him closer, "I don't care whether you like him or not, he saved our lives during hunting and that's all that matters. If the best we can do for him at this moment is to offer him temporary accommodation then we'll do that. If you're not comfortable with that then you can go and hide your head under a rock."Octavius shrugged Rodney's hand off his sleeve
James was running so fast that everything in his sight just blurred past and all he could think about was the different ways he would take his revenge on everyone who tossed him aside.'Just you wait Ryan, you'll pay for all that you've done to me. It's too bad Dad and your mom are no longer alive to receive their payback"He was still running when he saw the airport in the distance. He slowed down and his hands instinctively reached for the pouch of money in his pocket. He wouldn't forget to repay their kindness in the near future."What?" He exclaimed as his Omniscience began to warn him of incoming danger."But there's no one around here for miles unless..." He trailed off as he remembered the face of the strange man that kept staring at him the last night."No!" He gasped as he turned back to head to the village.***"Rodney! Rodney! Wake up! Some soldiers are here" Rodney's junior brother, Finn yelled as he approached Rodney who was ploughing the fields some distance away from th
"Ugh..." James groaned weakly as he rolled over on the dirty floor and faced the ceiling of his confinement cell. The room was dark, stuffy, and stank of dried urine and feces. He tried to focus intently but he couldn't make out anything on the ceiling – the room was very dark.A small rat ran across the room and stopped by his leg which was covered in grime so thick that it depicted how long he had stayed without a proper bath. He was so weak that he couldn't even shrug the rat away so he left it there– after all, its presence made him feel less lonely.'What did I do to deserve all this?' James thought to himself as tears of sorrow and regret streaked down his eyes, 'Just because I'm the unwanted one? They've decided to treat me like trash and throw me away. Well, I've decided to grant them their wish– I'll die here and save everyone the bother of seeing a failure like me.'There was a noise at the metal door and a slot was opened, revealing the hard face of a guard. James squinted

"It functions basically like a game– those of you who played games while growing up will understand of course." General Bush continued, Some people nodded in agreement but the same couldn't be said for James because while his mates played games and enjoyed childhood, he scrubbed floors and washed curtains, his only experience with games was whenever he came into Ryan's room to serve his food while the latter would be sitting on the floor playing games with his friends. James clenched his fists and gritted his teeth at the unfortunate memory, 'If this 'system' should give me powers then a lot of people will p...' "To see your system, think about 'status' and observe the stats that have been placed before you ." 'So that's it?' James thought, 'Status.'
