Rewards and Rescue

After the system announcement, tejasv started looking in the

system and tries to understand its functions.

Then he remembers “oh! Rewards’’

He checks his rewards

“Skill –copy and paste’’

Limit = 5 slots

What does copy and paste mean and what’s this limit for,

Does it mean I can copy something and paste somewhere but I

have only five tries?

“Isn’t this world’s shitty skill” tejasv said.

Then his attention goes to the skill window, he touches it

and its functions were written there.

“You can copy and paste other’s skills but you have only 5

slots’’.

“Now this sounds a bit promising’’ he thought.

What other rewards are there, he checked.

“Can enhance only one of the below properties

-intelligence

-skill points

-physique’’

So these three are the only things that can be enhanced by

the system.

Skill points seems to increase the diversity and control of

skill by the user. Physique seems to refer user’s body composition of fat and

muscles. It may increase agility and strength.

However, what is the use of intelligence, maybe it can

increase the brain’s thinking capacity and forming strategies.

The other reward that was given to tejasv were two battle-axes

for both hands.

He was conflicted about what property of his body he should

consider enhancing best for now.

He then concluded physique to be of great importance right

now because his skill can only be used after he meet someone, so skill point is

useless currently.

Tejasv considered himself good at strategy games, so for now

intelligence is not priority.

Therefore, he increased his physique because now he has only

axes that can only be used with great physique.

After that, he cleaned his house that was looking like hub of

blood and flesh.

He made a grave of his mother in their garden.

After that, he cooked some noodles to gain some strength to

stay ready for another fight.

While eating he was checking the rankings and videos of

other places.

In Most of them humans were slaughtered without mercy by monsters.

He could see every type of fantasy monsters and some even

have dinosaur like monsters.

The top ranking in the world was US marine base; most of top

rankings were military bases where trained soldiers stay.

However, those bases also faced slaughter beyond their dreams,

because the monsters were summoned based on buildings and personnel count.

Therefore, buildings with large population faced large horde

of monsters.

His attention then goes to his ranking that was quit high.

He was placed in top 100000s in his country and top 1000s in

his city.

This should be considered high for a country with largest

population and for a city like city A which is right below capital in terms of

size.

He was placed this high because of the skills he showed

while engaging three enemies alone and came unscathed.

He could also see videos of people still fighting monsters.

Then his window filled with many notifications of people

asking for help, many were even hidden while sending help requests.

However, many people even die trying to help the others by

putting a brave front or being greedy for rewards and fought monsters beyond

them.

Tejasv started thinking whether he should save someone or not.

Then a sudden bounty request was given by military base of

city A.

They were overrun by sudden attack of monsters and were

unable to retaliate with remaining survivors.

No one was ready to accept such dangerous bounty because

that military base is one of the biggest building in their city, which implies that

the monsters summoned there were of high caliber.

Watching army personnel die, tejasv remembered his father

who died in a brawl on borders while serving in army.

However, tejasv is not sentimental enough to not consider

the losses and success rate before accepting any request.

So he started looking for request with small monsters like goblins,

wolfs or some weak looking monsters.

After selecting all the doable requests.

He looked for his father’s gear from army days to battle monsters.

He found some guards, body shield and battle knife that his mother was keeping

as a memory of her husband.

Now he was ready to tackle any situation.

After that, he was flustered about how to leave house to

save them.

Then suddenly a portal to the first destination opened and

he was quiet shocked.

He understood from where these monsters were coming suddenly

in their homes.

The first destination was a small house with only one room and

a wolf looking monster was there destroying things all over.

The wolf sensed tejasv and took a battle stance within

seconds.

Watching it tejasv went for defense stance. He put one of

his axe in a defensive position and other one was ready to strike anytime.

Both of them were looking at their prey with heightened

senses. No one was even blinking and were gazing in each other’s eyes.

They both knew that the one who gets distracted would lose

its life today.

The suddenly an old women maybe about in her 60s came

shouting “you fucking dog’’,

Then she threw a wooden stick on the beast.

This distracted the wolf and with a chance given by heaven,

tejasv went for its neck.

He swing his axe as hard as he could and the next thing he

saw was the neck of the beast in the sky with blood all over him.

The old woman was quite shocked.

She was still shivering; don’t know who she was fearing, the

beast who was killed or the beast that was still standing in front of him with

blood on him.

Tejasv then said “grandma! Are you ok!’’

She was still stunned for some time and after another loud

voice from tejasv could make her calm.

She replied “thanks son ‘’

“I was in the bathroom then suddenly heard some loud sound

from the room ‘’

“I was afraid of burglars, so I kept hiding there waiting

for them to leave’’

Then she explained how a window appeared and she saw request

option and send it to everyone.

Tejasv told her to stay in house and wait for help.

Even though he knew that, no help may arrive and she may die

anytime but he realize a fact that in current situation he cannot save everyone,

he have to gain strength and skills if he aims to give any decent help to

someone.

After that, he asked grandma if she got any skill but she denied,

maybe because she didn’t kill any monster.

For defeating the beast, tejasv only got some coins and he

was not happy with that.

He took his leave from there and went straight for the next

destination.

That was quit big house for a family of five, which he

concluded from pictures of family in drawing room.

“Maybe they are quite well, off’’ he thought.

Tejasv looked for family members in ground floor but there

was no sign of anyone not even any monster.

However, he could hear some voices from first floor he took

his stance and started walking on stairs.

There he saw some human like monsters eating a body and many

were gathered outside of a room.

They were trying to destroy the locked room.

Watching them, the only word that came into his mind was

“zombies”.

While hiding and observing, He noticed their behavior was

similar to zombies he watched in movies.

They were only reacting on their basic instinct but their

senses were dull than a human.

However, their numbers were in twenty to twenty five, so

tejasv was wary of them.

He was even considering the fact about them biting him and

turning him into a zombie.

He prepared a plan and made a loud noise in ground floor.

Hearing the sound all zombies started running towards the noise.

In a room with two gates, he kept one open and other closed.

He stood near the closed one and kept waiting for all of

them to gather there.

He prepared a barrier of shelves, tables, chairs, sofa and cupboard

to keep their pace slow.

All the things in that room were sprayed with petrol.

He went outside with other gate and closed the open gate

from outside.

While burning a matchbox he took from the house he said

“hasta la vista! Baby!” and threw it in the room making a scene worth watching.

He was prepared with fire extinguisher to keep fire

contained only in one room for the safety of the remaining family members.

After confirming the death count, he went upstairs to check

family members.

Hearing voice of a human they opened the gate, only the

father of that family died protecting his family.

Others were safe physically but cannot be said same

emotionally.

Tejasv knew that it’s not time for this but he still asked

them for their skills because he have to keep getting strong.

However, looks like his luck do not wish for the same.

No one had a decent skill that he could even consider

checking.

From there he went to different places without resting and

slaughtered monsters like his arch nemesis.

Many people even aimed at him in fear because of his

bloodier appearance considering him another monster.

After fifteen or twenty quests, he was looking like a lunatic

who was out for blood.

His face could not be recognized now, his body and head was

filled with flesh here and there.

He was looking a monster who baths from blood and eats flesh.

Without him knowing, he became famous on rankings all over

the country and people start knowing him as “reaper”, who is out to have his

revenge on monsters.

He was completing requests as if he was possessed by some kind

of power from underworld.

Then he arrived at a place where he saw the goblins like

those at his home and their laughing voice echoed in his ears made tejasv out

of control.

He killed them in most painful way he could thought of.

There he found an infant whose parents were killed by goblins,

watching him tejasv realise he is also alone like him.

This made him remember his mother and bringing him back from

being a monster to human again.

He took the child and went for the childcare he just saved

and asked them to take care of him.

He also assured them about fighting monsters in their stead

and protecting that place.

Then he came back to his place to take a breather and relax.

He took a nice shower and slept for two hours without any care

in this world.

After a nice a nap, he checked ranking and videos of people

all over the world.

He was shocked to see that the world is going crazy now.

Many people were not only killing monsters but also human

that were only asking for help from them.

When others questioned them about their behavior they

replied by referring killing as fun activity for them.

He also found his ranking rising in this chaos.

His request notifications now were also rising and even from

other countries, he was requested for help.

Now he was in top 1000s in the world.

His rewards were also quit nice after all the fighting; he

even gained a nice skill “regeneration”.

This skill kept him from losing any body part from fighting and

regenerate his blood that was lost.

However, the only drawback is that he still gets tired and

needs rest and it cannot regenerate his head.

Nevertheless, this skill is a boon for a person with a

fighting style like him.

With the coins, he bought new gear for him with good

endurance,

He preferred axes as weapon but with more strength and

endurance than before.

 After the preparation

he said “now let’s save the military base from its downfall”.
