YM778.TV Chapter 76 1: Dungeon System
[Congratulations! You have received the Dungeon System]
[You have received the title \'Player\']
\'Dungeon System? Player?\'
Roel asked inwardly. His eyes glued to the floating words didn\'t blink.
Sleeping on the street, Roel was a poor man. He couldn\'t even afford to rent a place. He barely survives doing manual labor.
Like always he slept on the street, but today while sleeping he was greeted with this magical text.
\'Am I dreaming?\'
He pinched his cheeks and felt pain which made him sure whatever he saw seeing wasn\'t fake. It was real. Real like a fantasy.
As he touched the window, a ripple formed. From the small window, a long vertical screen flashed.

Roel:??
Roel stared at the vertical window.
Stats?
From the words written under stats, Roel could roughly guess their meaning.
But the thing he didn\'t know is mana.
\'If I think about it, I have heard about mana when I was working. The Venators guys said something about skill needing mana to be used.\'
Roel fell in a daze, the holographic screen in front of him was magical, and the layout gave him a satisfying feeling.
Besides the stats window, the second notification floated waiting for Roel.
He touched the \'player\' notification and a series of ding sound reverberated followed with a series of blue screen.

Roel looked at the quest window with some interest. Afterward, he lost interest and lay on the roadside.
"Time to sleep."
Feck the dungeon, feck the system, sleep is all I need. You, who disrupt my sleep can\'t rest in peace.
Roel was just too tired for the dungeon. He had to wake from 6 am and work at about 10 pm. Part of the time is wasted in finding a job, finding a place where manual labor is hiring, and more.
Being an orphan he couldn\'t afford his tuition and could only graduate high school. Because of his low education, he could barely get any job inside the city.
Heck, no one didn\'t even want to give him any job.
Living a life that is even worse than an insect, Roel could only feel helpless. He didn\'t have the courage to kill himself.
****
This world, Earth, evolved at an incredible speed. The trees that were going to be extinct from this world because of the high deforestation rate, fought back.
Huge trees that even advanced cutting machines can\'t cut grew, and bombs couldn\'t even scratch their skin. It even gained minor intelligence and used branches to fight with humans.
This was the first case of abnormalities. Then the land shook, and the gate appeared. These gates were made up of stones and glowed blue at their entrance.
Entering this dungeon leads to a whole different place, monsters that roam inside the dungeon attack humans on their first exploration.
Well, the monster didn\'t leave the dungeon, so humans were relieved.
Then came mutation, animals mutated. They reproduced like crazy, millions of animals were birthed every day. Be it rare, or at the rate of extinction, even the animals who didn\'t have males on their side got pregnant.
Afterward, came the final attack.
The monster left the dungeon, and chaos, only this could describe the state. The monster ran rampant on lands destroying anything that came in their way.
Mutated animals, monsters, trees, and even insects, and birds, the earth changed totally.
But it came with benefits.
Humans also evolved. They gained superpowers. The first superhuman of earth killed the monster and obtained a skill book.
That changed the whole world.
Those who have awakened could learn more skills from these skill books.
Technology advanced, people advanced, inflation went up, and money became harder to earn. If you aren\'t a hunter or a person who has an important profession like a doctor, you can consider that you won\'t live a good life.
Roel woke up feeling the light piercing his eye. His body felt sore from sleeping on the concrete. He stood and stretched his body.
Walking toward a park, he washed his face on the sink installed in the park and drink the water. After freshening up, he walked toward the place where he was given a job.
"Roel, you came early."
A middle-aged man said with a smile on his face.
"I had nothing better to do, so I thought it would be good to start early," Roel said bowing slightly.
"Haha, young people sure have energy. Well, let\'s start right away then."
The middle-aged man laughed and patted Roel\'s shoulder.
"Are we the only one?"
"Yeah. Well, we are the only ones short on money, so better to earn more."
"Yeah."
After the conversation, they walked inside the long building. A middle-aged fat man stood in the middle of the lobby talking on the phone. When he saw Roel and the middle-aged man, he stopped talking and walked toward them.
"Are you the one who will carry the furniture inside?"
The fat man\'s voice was cold, he didn\'t care about them and looked down on them. The middle-aged man scratch his hair and nodded.
"Ok, the truck will come after some minute. Carry all the furniture inside.":
"Ok, boss!"
Roel and the man nodded.
As they were talking, the truck drove to the building and parked outside. Five people exited the truck and opened the shutter at the back of their truck.
As the shutter opened, the fat man signed them to go. Roel nodded and looked at the man beside him.
"Let\'s go."
He said politely.
"Who is Mr. Ken?"
"Me."
The middle-aged man, a.k.a Ken\'s name was announced by the driver. Ken walked there and chatted with the driver.
After some talking, he signed Roel to start working. Roel nodding. Pulling his sleeve, he helped the workers to put down the furniture.
Then, he carried the huge computer desk, it was heavy. Heavy like heck, it made him stagger while carrying it.
Suddenly, the event of yesterday night came to his brain.
"Stats!" He exclaimed to himself. People beside him just ignored him and carried the furniture with him.
"System." He called the system in a soft voice, but nothing appeared. He thought he was dreaming last time.
But, he opened his mouth again. "Stats window."
With this keyword, a window appeared. He didn\'t care about the content inside, and just pour 2 stats points on his strength.

Roel felt a surge of energy flowing inside him. His muscles tense. The heavy desk became lighter. With only 2 strength points, his strength increases a lot.
The heavy desk became lighter, too lighter that he could run carrying that, but it would awkward and difficult.
Carrying the desk, he put it inside the room that he was directed to. After placing the desk, he walked again to the truck and picked up another piece of furniture.
"Wow." Roel was amazed by the strength he got. Other people who carried furniture with him looked at Roel with surprise.
"Isn\'t he kind of strong?"
"Yeah."
The workers said that and returned to their work.
Let\'s forget about that kid.
They thought it inside their heart and did their work.
*****
After many hours, the work ended.
"Ha!"
Ren sat on the ground breathing deeply. Exhaustion piled inside his body. His body ached, and his shoulder felt sore.
The swollen muscles gave him additional pain. Sighing, Roel sat on the ground.
"Here."
Ken brought a can of juice and gave it to Roel.
"Oh, thanks."
"Not a problem."
Roel and Ken sat side by side and conversed with each other. After some minutes, he stood and bowed down.
"I will go now."
"Ok, take care."
Roel bid farewell and returned to the slumps. He lay on the ground wanting to fall asleep. But his wish was soon broken by the mechanical voice that echoed inside his head.
[Quest Failed!!]
A huge red window covered the sight of Roel. He was stunned at first and remembered that he would get a penalty if he missed the quest.
He didn\'t know what penalty he would face. A worried expression flashed, and his heart throbbed. His instinct told him something bad is going to happen.
[Quest]
[Level up (Daily Quest) - Failed]
[Use Points - Failed]
[Dungeon Entry - Failed]
[Penalty calculating]
Hiss!
Roel gasped. His body was paralyzed, he felt electricity running through his body. The pain that came with this electricity made his entire body numb.
Afterward, his consciousness wavered. The surroundings blurred, and when his vision returned. He found himself on the floor.
