Prologue
My name is Jack. I am 15 years old. I am an orphan. I grew up with a bunch of monks on a mountain, but I left due to clashing ideals. I am currently in class during brake period, and as always, I am sitting in the back of the class all alone with nothing but my hobby to keep me company, observing people. I watch my class mates talk endlessly about stuff, like how great their date went last night, the new show that aired over the weekend, or what their plans are for the break.
skill obtained
'What the fuck.'
reward for being the first person to obtain a skill calculating.... Title obtained (skill whore)
"..."
"..."
"WHAT THE FUCK."
Everyone looks at me.
'Oh shit I said that out loud.'
"..."
"..."
"Excuse me."
I get up and go to the bathroom to get away from my class.
As I get up, I notice that everyone has a name and a 1 floating over their head.
'Odd'
When I get to the bathroom I see my own name and a 1 in the mirror.
'The 1 must mean level 1. Hmmm'
''
As I scream that one word in my head, a blue window pops up in the same way the previous two did.

After I close all the windows I start heading back to class.
'That was...odd'
When I get back to class everyone was back to talking amongst themselves again.
*ding-don*
That was the sound that break time was over and it was to move on our next subject, PE.
As we were heading to the changing room another announcement appeared in front of me and, by the way everyone reacted, the entire class.
You will now be transferred to the inside of a dungeon at random locations in 5:00
"What the hell!" (Unanimous)

The Nether Wolf [CURRENTLY ON HIATUS!]
THE AUTHOR IS TAKING SOME TIME OFF.NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SMALL HIATUS MENTIONED LATER ON THE DESCRIPTION. WRITING WILL RESUME LATER THIS MONTH (FEBRUARY). Don't you just hate it when you're walking home from school and you accidentally stumble into another dimension? And now you're stuck in there with no way out, thinking of what to do in this medieval kinda world. Well at least it seems safe...It seems that some people have problem with multiple POV (Point of View) characters and so I'm deciding to alter the description to mention, that sometimes in the story we see the world from other people's point of view than our MC's (Main Character). But there is a MC and the point of view changes are few, except for short point after the season 1 ends. These are mostly done to expand the world and introduce plot elements, nothing more.This story is written in manner of seasons, which aren't marked in the chapter titles and don't really affect your reading experience, but between the seasons are small, 2-7 day hiatuses so the writer can rest and plan.Oh, the website released a mature-content tagging rules, so here: Warning, Mature [17+] Violence,gore and occasional swearing. Mainly put it at 17+ so it doesn't restrict me, but story could be considered as 15+, no way 18+ though.
