Waking up, it's still early morning, and the sun is not even up yet.
"I'm still alive, and my deduction is right after all."
Well, to be honest, it still can't be called proven yet.
The electricity is still on, so it seems the civilization still holds on. Of course, there is no way such a green weakling would defeat the government. It would only work if that green weakling had gold to bribe government officials to fuck themselves up. Hahaha.
Got nothing to do, so I try to train and brace myself for whatever might come my way.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5"
A few sets of push up later, it pops up
[The world appreciates your effort]
[Your strength increase]
"Wow, the world actually pays you for your efforts. Now, that is unusual."
I said, joking and mockingly at the weird windows.
Looking at it, my body feels better, and my panting decreases slightly. It does increase, it seems.
I think I could do this a few more times with that kind of appreciation. So, I keep doing my workout, and the same message pops up a few times.
"Now I really felt the increase of my strength, but it was still tiring as hell."
I said while prepping up eggs for my breakfast.
"While the electricity is still on, I should make rice with a rice cooker."
Why deny convenience while you still have it? Am I right?
"Meow"
Misty jumped onto the table near me and put her body closer to me while purring.
"I thought you didn't want me to get close to you?"
"Meow"
Misty is trying to pet her body to me.
"Yes, yes. U're the cutest. It's just too bad it can't change the fact your wet food was running out yesterday."
"Raaawwr"
Said her angrily while walking away.
Now, I am seriously concerned that she understands me.
Just like that, three days gone.
"I think I'm good enough to walk outside now."
I Said to myself to hyping up myself.
Peeking up the barricaded window, the number of ugly green things actually increased quite a lot.
"Am I really good enough?"
Gulp.
Holding a makeshift weapon that looks like a spear made of a kitchen knife strapped into a poke. I opened my door while gulping loudly.
[Second migration started]
Baam!
I slam my door loudly.
"It's happened again? Is there something wrong with my door? Is it cursed?"
"Kiek? Kieeeek!"
"Kiieeek!"
"Kieeek!"
Daar! Daaar! Daar!
Because I slam the door too loudly, those green Monsters hear it and start banging their body on my door.
"Shit, what should I do?"
Without thinking too long, I decided to barricade my door again.
"Kieek!"
Bbbrrrrrr! darr! daarr!
That green monsters are still banging themselves on my door. I planned to fight them initially, but they're just too many, and I don't want to risk it. So I just wait it out.
Baaamm! baamm! bammm!
The earth suddenly rumbles.
"Is it earthquakes?"
The front of the door suddenly becomes quiet.
Crunch!, crunch!? crunch!
I peek at what's going on in my front window as quietly as possible. Looking at it, I feel my pupils dilated. I hold my breath. I cover my mouth with my hands to decrease any possible sounds I may leak. I want to puke, but I can't.
I see a giant-like, gigantic monstrous monster reaching 4 meters in height with its towering back facing me, munching on green monster heads. Slurping green Monster hands like it's some chicken feed.
After having some hearty meal, he just goes like that without any care of the world after noticing another prey show up.
I scared. I don't know what to do. No matter how much I prepare for it, there is no way I can face that thing.
My legs give out as soon as that monstrous creature is gone from my eyesight. I puke right then and there. I can't stand it. I can't, no matter what I think about it. I can't do it. Should I just kill myself and be over with it?
It's been a week, and I am just crouching and hiding myself away in my room. The electricity was gone ages ago. I get by by eating raw noodles and rice.
I lost the feeling in my legs after a long time passed by.
[Third migration started]
I run out of food after 3 weeks.
Misty found herself. A way to reach her own food, it seems. What a clever girl.
I once read cats eat their dead owner's bodies if they're put in the locked together. I hope she does that once I die. So that she would live longer.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I'm so afraid, and my body got so weak I can't even open the door to let you go outside."
"Meow"
That day was the first time I ate expired raw eggs and drank my own urine.
More weeks passed by.
[Fourth migration started]
Hungry.
I'm so hungry.
Huungrrryy.
I see misty.
She runs out of food and becomes weak, too.
Poor her.
Days pass just like that without any food or water.
Misty lie beside me. I don't even know if she is still alive or not. My thoughts are just too focused on how hungry I am.
More days passed by.
My hungry thoughts were stopped by a weird Windows message.
[Talent [the blessed healthy and nutritious body] activated]
[Your mana, strength, and health increased]
[Your damaged body healed]
[Your chance to earn skills increased exponentially]
[Your body blessed]
"What the hell is happened?"
I can speak normally? My throat is not parched anymore?
I feel my throat refreshed as if I had just drunk some Mountain Springs.
I touched the water on my lips. It's red like blood. It is blood.
I saw the half-eaten corpse of Misty. My cat.
My cat. The one left i could call family in my lonely days.
Tears fall down raining, my cheeks.
"Fuck"
"Why"
"I'm such weakling"
I cried for as long as I can remember that day.
