My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

Immediately the werewolf appeared, the big countdown clock also appeared. And when it counted down to 0, Jake dashed towards the werewolf with full speed. When he got to the werewolf’s position, he swung his sword quickly towards the werewolf’s stomach but the werewolf quickly pivoted sideways therefore avoiding the hit and allowing Jake to keep on running forward. A second later, Jake stopped running and quickly turned around to face the werewolf.

’Woah! Have I gotten faster?’ Jake thought.

"You foolish host!" Zee chided. "Have you forgotten, your stats have all increased so definitely, you have gotten faster."

"Oh I totally forgot about that." Jake said taking a stance while not taking his eyes off the werewolf. "Oh well, I just have to get the hang of my new speed as well as my new skills."

It wasn’t only Jake that noticed he had gotten faster, his regular three fans had also noticed it because they had always watched Jake’s match from ever since when Jake defeated them in the match and so it was easy to spot that Jake had gotten faster. This only added to their excitement.

The werewolf was now smiling at Jake which also causes Jake to grit his teeth in anger. ’Why did they have to make this game so realistic. Looking at this werewolf, keeps on reminding me of the one we encountered yesterday.’

Not letting his anger get to him, Jake closed his eyes and breathed in and out before taking a stance again and calculating the best way to approach the werewolf. Finally coming up with a plan, Jake ran towards the werewolf but without his full speed.

While the werewolf ran towards Jake but with its full speed. When the two were about to collide, Jake quickly activated skill to get behind the werewolf then he also quickly activated therefore boosting his strength by 10 percent.

From <45> to <55> therefore making him stronger than all Peter and Sophia but not as strong as Jack when he uses Qi. And then Jake rather than use his sword, decided to quickly use his fist therefore punching the werewolf with full strength. The hit caused the werewolf to go flying instead of skidding. Instead of moving, Jake stopped and looked at his fist for a second in astonishment.

The spectating stands were also very quiet with what they just witnessed. Because in the history of Reality X gaming, no silver player had ever sent a werewolf flying like that. It was only possible from the Gold rank and above. Quickly snapping out of his astonishment, Jake smiled and dashed towards the werewolf again with half his normal speed.

He didn’t want to use his full speed for what he was about to do now. When Jake was now one metre away from the werewolf, he quickly activated and . The stun strike made the werewolf unable to move for a second while Jake was going through the motion of the step shift.

The step shift made use of short, quick movement to create or close distance and gaps within one metre. When Jake activated the step shift, he got the timing wrong therefore sending him stumbling in the path of the werewolf who was now finally free from the effect of stun strike.

Seeing Jake stumbling towards it, the werewolf readied its fist and then it swung it hard and fast therefore sending Jake flying to the other end of the platform. After some minutes, Jake came to a halt from the impact of the Werewolf’s punch. And then he slowly stood up but he was on his knees coughing hard.

"Shit shit shit!" Jake cursed angrily. "How on earth did I get the timing wrong?"

"You didn’t get the timing wrong, more like, you got the speed wrong." Zee said.

"What do you mean?" Jake asked with a raised brow.

"Didn’t you read the skill description? It said short and quick movements to close or create distance or gaps." Zee said.

"Yeah I know that already. What’s your point here?" Jake asked impatiently.

"My point is, I’m tryna advice you. The system was tryna tell you how to use the skill by saying short movements to create gaps and quick movements to close gaps or distance. So my point here is, use short movements to create gaps or distance while the quick movements to.."

"To close the distance." Jake replied. "I see my mistake now. I used short speed or movement to try and close distance instead of using quick and fast speed. Thanks Zee."

"You’re always welcome Jake."

Jake’s talk with Zee only took a minute while in reality, it took only a second. So now Jake finally stood up from the ground with a smirk on his face. ’Time to pay a werewolf back.’

The werewolf calmly walked towards Jake with a grin on its face meanwhile, Jake checked the time limit on the strength Surge. Seeing he had 3 minutes left before the skill was over, Jake quickly dashed towards the werewolf with full speed this time and when he was almost a metre away, he activated another skill. as the name implies, he locked the werewolf down therefore rendering the werewolf unable to move.

Then when he was finally a metre away, Jake now activated the to close the distance between him and the werewolf and this time, it successfully worked. Jake was now in front of the werewolf who was now starting to be free of the effects of Lockdown but it was too late for the werewolf’s face was now met with a full on fist from Jake sending it crashing down again.

Then Jake quickly moved forward and used his sword to stab the werewolf on its head therefore ending the game with Jake being declared the winner. The spectating stands were now totally silent and amazed by the splendid performance Jake did. And then finally, they all snapped out from their daze and applauded Jake loudly while also cheering him on.

It was because of the cheer, Jake now acknowledged that there were people In the spectating stands. Not caring about them, Jake wanted to just move on to the next game of the day. One new comer in the stands, was confused with the people’s excitement and cheering.

"I don’t get it, just because he defeated a virtual werewolf, you all are now suddenly excited."

One of the first initial three fans of Jake whose name was Nate decided to reply him. "Huh? Oh now I get it, you haven’t been following the wolf hunter from the beginning. That explains why I haven’t seen you before."

"And so?" The man asked with a raised brow. "You still haven’t explained what the fuss is all about."

To which Nate just chuckled. "The reason everyone is excited, is that, the wolf hunter doesn’t disappoint. Anytime he log out, he always comes back stronger than ever. Like the skill where he closed the distance between him and the werewolf, he didn’t have it before nor did he used it in his previous matches."

"Oh really?" The man asked.

"Yes. And he was definitely not strong enough before to punch a werewolf and send it flying like he did earlier. It’s like he just got a strength boost all of a sudden and it wasn’t even a week when we last saw him play the game." The other initial three named Sam replied.

The man didn’t ask any questions, he just stroke his beard and continued watching Jake who was now starting another match with a werewolf. It wasn’t strange for men to be playing the game, it was because some of them usually used it to practice and sharpen their skills. And in the spectating stands, most of the spectators weren’t using their gaming avatar.

Most of them appeared the way they were in reality. Meanwhile no one could identify Jake’s identity because he was using his gaming avatar. The man after hearing what Nate and Sam said, was now in deep thought.

’Could the wolf hunter be the one?’ The man thought as he stroke his beard. ’Could he be the one I have been looking for? The kids said he always comes back stronger than ever and anytime he comes back, he uses skills that he didn’t use before. Could he actually be the one? If so, then I have to get him as soon as possible.’
