System Vs Magic

Chapter 4 - Worm

"I-I 'see," he dejectedly said. "By the way, not Rolly, it's Ronny." He continued.

Touching my head slightly, I replied, "s-sorry, uncle Ronny."

"Mhm, hungry?"

"Y-yeah."

"Come with me."

He brought me to a cottage and handed me a bowl of soup. 'While eating, I asked him some questions. He told me that we are on the outskirts of a town. Currently fighting a group of monsters tried to overtake the place. This town is known as Sitona, use to be bustling and had a total of '2,000 people living. But after the incident that was happened last year, the town is desolate.

The town of Sitona is a small part of the empire known, as the Whitestone Empire, 500 kilometers from the wall of the empire, in all directions, what can be seen, was thick fog. A full white view. Monsters came from the fogs attacking every town and city of the empire trying to overtake and claim as theirs.

Since the people here can use different kinds of magic, they tried to fight back and retake the land which was overtaken by monsters.

'When night comes, I was sitting on the ground and there were 15 people besides me encircling the bonfire. They wore leather armor and a thick cloth wraps tightly from feet to their mouth in order to prevent the chilly cold air of a night breeze. Everyone wore a solemn expression 'on their faces. Some are whispering 'and some are loudly grated their teeth.

I think this odd atmosphere was because of what happened this morning. I don't know what they meant by Ratmen lord. 'But based on its name it looks like, it is some kind of big boss, the leader of the monsters. I'm sure this Lord stronger than ordinary ones just like in any games I played before.

Oh right, I remembered I killed one of the monsters and level up. Base on the information paste in my brain. I can call out the windows interface by whispering in minds or out loud the magic word [windows interface].

Bling!

A magical sound which only I can hear follows after I whispered the words. What follows next is a holographic screen with 16 inches wide and 12 inches long.

Nyeee!! I exclaimed in shock while peeking at my title.

"Is `worm' a title?!" I asked myself.

This interface mocking me? I don't know 'whether to laugh or cry. Is it a joke or `what'.

Meanwhile, I noticed the [Talent] section.

Hmm...

This [Talent], I remembered playing a game with this kind of system. 'If I remember correctly in order to increase my success rate for making good quality items or potions I need high proficiency in blacksmith and alchemy.

Hmm...

Next is mental.

'If I'm not wrong, I think [Mental] good for anti-debuff or status ailments. I'm not sure though. Just like what I have said before, I'm a player who populated the games without proper achievements

Anyways no need to explain [Luck]. The [Technique] can also help me with my fighting performance 'and [Critical] can cause higher damage. It increases 'if I have high dexterity as well.

"Hey! Kid"

'While I'm busy scrutinizing my interface someone beside calls 'me.

"Yes," I answered.

"Take this." A bearded old man with gray hairs handed me a cup of hot water? 'Or coffee? No, it's something like herbal tea.

"T-Thank you, mister..."

"Mar,"

"Thank you, Mr. Mar."

"No probs kid, Oh rights, your Ronny's nephew's right? " He asks.

"Yes, why? "

"I see, 'uhm I heard tomorrow your squad will storm the northern part of town," he said.

"R-really? " I don't know what is in there. 'But tomorrow 'huh! Looks 'like I had to go on a battle again.

"Kid, you look calm, " he suddenly said with a slight of doubt.

"Eh, Why? "

"You know what is in the northern part of town? "

"Sorry no."

"I see, then good luck tomorrow and don't die young, " he said 'while tapping my right shoulder with his right hand.

I don't know what he meant 'but he left after leaving those words. I saw the people in my surroundings wore a solemn-looking face. I wrinkled my brow slightly.

'When morning comes, before even the sun fully appears. '200 soldiers are gathered in a large open area outside of town. I and uncle Ronny came here very early. Just like what the old man said last night. We are gathered to storm the northern part of town. These 200 soldiers gathering will be divided into 40 groups. Every group consists of 5 squad members.

Every member had a respected rule. Uncle Ronny is the vanguard of our squad. A guy with a large build and known as Stonehard will be our Tank. A lean looking guy with a handsome face will be our support. His name is Leo. He both has strong magic and good support skills. The last member is a girl about 17 years old. She has shoulder-length black hair. 'And a cold gaze in her eyes. She will be our squad's scout. At her h.i.p.s, hung 2 shining looking daggers. She wore a fitted black leather cloth. 'What a fine-looking beauty, I whispered in mind.

'And me' I don't know what's my rule. Maybe 'allrounder.

'While staring at the girl, suddenly she shows me a `grimace' looking 'face. It looks 'like she notices my gaze.

"Hey! You," Shout by the girl.

I look left and right 'but no other people notice her call. 'So I decided to ignore her as well.

"This idiot! " I heard her annoyed voice. 'But I don't know who she tried to call to. Many people crowded around my surroundings. I don't want to mistakenly claim that this cold-looking beauty was talking to me.

Swoosh!

Thump!

Awwww!!

'While I'm gazing at my surroundings an object came flying towards my forehead.
