The familiar dizzy feeling hit Aleen after leaving the portal.

He shook his head and read the information in his head before frowning and looking to the surroundings.

‘Another level two? Could it be…?’

Aleen didn’t need search for long to find the figure he was searching for.

In a corner of the room, a petite silver-haired girl was holding her head in pain while a silver cat touched her thigh with its paw.

“You… You are a level two!? And how did you enter the portal with me!?”

Aya, still holding her head, looked up to Aleen and tilted her head.

“Huh?”

She then grabbed the cat in her arms and carried it to her chest.

Looking around, she noticed the strangeness of the place. Before Aleen could say something, she used her emotionless voice to speak.

“… Where is it?”

Aleen expression turned to surprise. “You don’t know?”

Aya shook her head.

Aleen put a contemplating expression and spoke to himself. “… Are you not the other level two then? No, the others are still sleeping, so you must be the one. Then, have you never been here before? Did you acquire your skill on earth?”

Aya only tilted her head in confusion.

Seeing it, Aleen sighed slightly waved his hand. “Wait a moment, I will explain everything after I wake up the others.”

Besides Aleen and Aya, another seven people were lying asleep on the ground. Two of them were women and the other five were men.

Two of the men attracted Aleen’s attention; they were around two meters tall, and both of them were dressed in black. Aleen thought that they seemed like bodyguards. The other three men, however, were pretty average.

Among the women, one seemed like a white-collar worker, and the other like a college student. Aleen did not dwell on their appearances and went to wake them up.

It was Aleen’s first time doing it, so he wasn’t sure about how to do it. Finally, he decided to use the method John used on him when he first entered the game.

Taking a deep breath, he infused a bit of mana in his shout.

“Stand up, the game already began!”

Immediately, all the seven people lying on the ground opened their eyes in surprise; but before they could react properly, the two women and a man wearing glasses began to vomit.

Aleen frowned when he saw it, but he remembered that he was also like this in his first game. Thinking about it, that memory seemed pretty far away now.

Unfortunately, now was not a good time to remember the past.

Giving a quick look at the eight people around him (Including Aya), Aleen sighed in his mind and thought about what he would do now.

He found the answer faster than he thought.

“Welcome, you all. You were unlucky enough to be chosen to participate in dimensional paradise. There isn't time to lose, so I’ll be quick.”

Pausing for a brief moment, he stared to the eight people to gauge their reactions and then continued. “This place is hell, and you were brought here to die. Now, there is a very small probability of surviving, but most of you will probably not do it.”

Aleen continued without giving them time to interrupt, explaining briefly about Dimensional Paradise and the games. The eight people made astonished expressions hearing his story, but Aleen ignored it.

“I will go to complete the mission, and you can decide if you want to stay here or come with me. I will say it from now, though; I won’t guarantee your safety if you follow me. Of course, I will help you if I see you in danger, but if the situation is too dangerous or you don’t follow my orders, I will leave you behind.”

Without waiting for them to answer, Aleen walked towards the door of the room.

But before exiting the room, he hesitated slightly and then turned to the silver-haired girl. “Aya, take a weapon and come with me.”

The silver-haired girl hesitated slightly, but at the end grabbed a short spear and followed after Aleen with Lily on her arms.

Aleen frowned briefly, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.

The remaining seven people stayed on the room with pale and astonished expressions. At that moment, however, one of the two bodyguard-like men whispered something to the college girl. The girl then nodded and the three of them followed after Aleen.

Seeing it, the other four people hesitated slightly and finally decided to go too.

Aleen noticed it, but he remained expressionless. Two games taught Aleen that it’s impossible to save everybody; the best he could do is give them a helping hand and increase their possibilities to survive, but if they show the sightless intention of causing trouble, Aleen wouldn't hesitate to leave them behind.

Outside the room was a long corridor. The place seemed recently abandoned, and Aleen noticed traces of blood and scratches on the walls.

Putting a serious expression, he took the sword, Dark Night, out of the ring and held it firmly in his hand. He had worn the armor before being summoned to the game.

Fortunately, there wasn’t anything dangerous in the corridor, but when he reached to a window, a gasp of astonishment escaped his lips.

Outside, it was filled with people.

No, they weren’t people.

Their eyes were white, and their bodies were filled with blood; Aleen could see countless injuries in their bodies.

A word appeared immediately on his mind.

“… Zombies.”
