Chapter 23: Dream?

I found myself in the middle of a hall, looking into a 20-foot mirror right in front of me. I haven't seen a mirror like this before.

"Where am I?" I clearly remember taking a nap after finishing the body-building task. I was sitting on top of a tree when a warm sensation came over me and I think I fell asleep. Why am I here then? Is this a dream?

I have a peculiar feeling about this place, it's somewhere I've been before.

There are a lot of pillars in this hall.

"DON'T YOU DARE!!!"

I heard a voice behind me. It made me feel sick to my stomach. I did not know who was behind me. I felt someone was strangling my throat as the mirror before me started glowing.

I suddenly saw a white shadow passing through my heart

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was just a dream; I am sitting on the top of a tree right now.

"FUCK!!!" I was scared to death. It was a horrible dream, but I felt like I knew that place, and that voice, I had heard somewhere before.

................

Somewhere far from this space and time, a voice was heard

"You've finally returned! Hahaha, now things will get interesting"

"I'd love to see his face."

"HAHAHAHAHA"

................

It was a pretty realistic dream. Fuck!! Even Hollywood movies will fail in front of it.

I can even make a movie packed with heroines. The name should be legendary.

"Hall of Pillars" This would be perfect.

"Fuck!!! I am awesome."

"Eve?"

"Yes Host"

"Do you even sleep?"

"It depends on the host"

"???!" I was covered in question marks. Can't she answer the simple question simply?

"What are you trying to say?"

"I am inactive when the host's brain goes to sleep."

"You mean to say, you sleep with me?"

.....

"HAHAHAHA" this is the First time Eve has been struck speechless. See my awesomeness even a system can't answer my question.

[EVE'S POV]

"What the fuck is this shit"

[ALAN POV]

Anyway, I have a serious question to ask.

"Eve, answer me a serious question?"

"Yes, Host"

"You can see my dream?"

"Once Host grants me access, I can see your dreams."

Awesome, it's a cool feature

"You can record the dream?"

"Yes Host"

Hell!!! I can make a movie now.

"Eve, record my dreams in the future"

"Affirmative, Host"

Now that all that has happened, I have noticed that it is the middle of the night. I don't even feel sleepy anymore.

But why I fell asleep? Oh, yeah! It was just after that body-building task.

Now that I realize the effect of that manual on my body, I realize it will maximize the effectiveness of the workout.

However, the first thing I have to do is find clothes. Fuck!!! I've been jumping naked here and there. Despite being a monkey now, I feel ashamed of it.

I can look for some animal skin, an alligator would be ideal. I can show off my alligator skin underwear to my ladies.

I fell asleep thinking of this blissful feeling. I even dreamt of my previous earth, where I was the hot commodity in the market. Hah, I really miss those days.

In the morning, I started my routine exercise; it is the best time to do it.

I also felt my body developing after I was done with my task; I saw my eight packs taking shape. "Hell!!!, my future is limitless."

After resting for a while, I again checked the store to find something useful.

"Basic Fighting Manual [I]" This shit is looking good

As soon as I bought that manual, I was filled with information about it.

"100 Left-hand Punch"

"100 right-hand punch"

"100 times Ducking"

"100 Left leg Kick"

"100 Right Leg Kick"

I can tell you that this isn't just any punch or kick.

It was worth spending the coins on this. I have spent my 100 EC on the cooking manual. And the remaining on seasonings.

The storage facility was even rented to me at a monthly rate of 5 coins. At least I'm not carrying all this stuff.

I started hunting after completing all the tasks. I will cook for the first time today. The last time I went hunting, I spotted a chicken in the jungle.

After searching for some time, I finally found the chicken, and my first dish would be roasted chicken. It took me around an hour to prepare that.

The moment I was about to devour my roasted chicken, I heard a roar of an animal, probably that of a lion, followed by a gunshot.

"FUCK MY LUCK!!!"

Hunters are here.
