----------------------------------------------------------
Will had just taken a shower and eaten some leftover pizza. His refrigerator was empty, he was in desperate need of going to the grocery store to get some food and other materials.
He took his wallet and left his apartment. Everywhere he went people were talking about Wonder quest, they bragged about skills and equipment they received looking for all the attention they could get. But the worst attention seekers that Will hated were the non-gamers that talked about playing the game, but never really played a single minute. If they actually tried playing, they would be addicted. Wil wasnt even sure if there were such thing as non-gamers anymore, everyone loved this game.
Even in the grocery store right now, the cashiers were talking about it. After Will grabbed some microwavable pizzas and some other items, he went to the cashiers to buy the Items and while checking the foods they were talking about how they found a new dungeon, and how hard it was to complete it, Both guys were level 20 and 25 warriors. Will didn't really care, he just wanted to go back home and play the game.
After leaving the store Will went home, packed everything in the refrigerator and logged on to the game.
After he spawned where he left off, in front of the old man's house he began to look for ways to enter the sewer. He walked almost throughout the whole town, and he couldn't find any manholes(Those things that leads to the sewers on the ground.).

¨Seriously? How do I get to the sewers?¨He asked himself.¨Maybe I have to ask some NPCs about it...¨
There were a good amount of people walking back and forth through the streets going places, Will spotted a lady who was walking through the streets and decided to ask her the question. He walked up to her and asked,¨Ma'am sorry for bothering you, but do you know where I can enter the sewers from?¨
After hearing this she looked at Will like he was crazy,¨Why would you go to the sewers?¨ She asked.
'None of your business' He thought but of course he didn't say it, Will didn't really like when people couldn't mind their business.
¨I have a job to do there, Ma'am...¨ Will said looking at her.
¨Ugh, alright just outside the southern Gates, you will find two obvious large holes in the side of the wall, that will be the entrance… Well, at least that's What I heard.¨ She said , and then continued,¨What is that on your forehead?¨
'None of your Business!!!' He thought but once more, didn't really, say it.
¨Its just an accessory miss, nothing special. Thank you for the information, have a good day.¨ Will said as he left walking towards the south.
'I really need a helmet...'
Will left to the southern gates, he looked around and spotted the 2 holes in the wall the lady was talking about. The hole wasnt exactly in the city's wall, there was a ditch going down, at the end of the ditch was a wall and 2 holes. The walls were connected to the city's walls.
The thing that stuck out the most about the location was the smell… The smell forced its way into Will nose, causing him to cough a couple of times.

'cough!, cough!'
¨Jeez!¨ Will said holding his nose.¨Even though this is a game, the smell is still too real… Alright lets go in.¨
Will entered one of the holes and began to move deeper and deeper into the cave. After going deeper into the cave for a few minutes he spotted, 2 red lights that seemed to stare back at him. As he got closer he got a closer look at the ugly creature. Part of its fur was ripped and foam came out of it's mouth.
¨What the hell is that.¨Will asked himself.
Sick RatType:MonsterLevel:10RankGreen TierOnce a normal rat, this rat now has gone crazy and someone or something has caused it...
¨The hell?¨ Will murmured and then continued,¨Raise Hell!¨
The little red devil appeared once more saying,¨My lord my wish is your every command.¨, Along with The little devil, Lucifer's horn appeared as well.
'My slime sword can shapeshift in a way… SO let me try something...'
¨Lets go! Attack that damn rat!¨ Will said as he jumped forward grabbing his sword and slashing it. As he was slashing
Thinking of a huge sword, about his height, The slime sword quickly took shape.
¨Swoosh¨
Critical Hit!
-130 Damage
The rat's life dropped down to about 25%
The little devil raised his hand and began murmuring things to himself. A fireball bigger than the little devil himself appeared over his body just over his hands.
¨Agh!!¨ He said as he threw the fireball at the, rat.
-33 Damage
The rat surprised by the quick attack from both enemies, didn't have the chance to react and quickly died on the spot, dropping a few things.
Level Up!
Level Up!
Level Up!
Appeared on top of the little devil, ¨Lets see how your stats looks like now.¨ Will said as he opened the little devils Status screen.

'Hehe, he got stronger.'
¨Congrats, now lets see what that little guy dropped.

¨So these rats are like material farms, hehehe I hope I find more of these guys.¨ Will said to himself as he heard, weird cracking and scraching noises. The noises got closer, Will looked ahead and spotted something.
Two more red eyes appeared, in front of him/
¨Hehe another on-¨ Will paused as another pair of crimson light appeared, followed by another and then about 6 more.
¨Well… Shit...¨
