Chapter 13 - Plan

[Player: Yuki Kaito]

[Level 2: 26400/40000]

Once Yuki had finally managed to kill every monster, he wanted to return to the shack to rest. As he tried to take one step, he felt his body collapse and land face-first to the ground. He had overdone it. The sun began to set and Yuki decided he would rest in the forest for the day. As he began to close his eyes, he felt a sharp shock in his lungs. The drawback to his ability had begun to activate.

In exchange for such an overpowered ability, Yuki sacrificed his sanity. He had used his ability a total of 11 times that day. This meant that he would have to deal with that excruciating pain for 11 whole hours.

He began to roll around on the ground in hopes of easing the pain but that seemed to have the opposite effect. His body was already past its limits which meant that if he tried to move around even a little, the pain he would experience would instantly increase dramatically.

Yuki lied down on the ground dealing with the extreme pain within his chest all night long without moving in the slightest. He had not gotten any sleep but at least the stars in the sky made him a little happy.

Once the 11-hour pain timer was finally done, Yuki began making his way to the shack. After arriving, he paid for 1 room and headed upstairs, and collapsed on the bed.

Yuki slept like a baby for the next 48 hours. Once he had awoken from his slumber, it was as if he was born again. His entire body was back to its peak form. While he did feel regenerated, he was very hungry. When he got out of his bed, he could barely stand let alone walk. Regardless, he went out to look for any shops that might sell any food.

The street was full of stores all for different uses. Yuki had not been able to admire them before as he had been focused on solely leveling up and getting as far in the game as possible while being as efficient as he could. After walking for what seemed like hours, he found a place that looked like a fast-food store. It wasn't fancy which meant that it couldn't be a restaurant and it wasn't noisy either which meant it couldn't be a bar.

When he entered, there were about 10 people inside already. They were eating greasy junk food which meant that his suspicions were correct. Yuki went up to the cashier register and ordered everything on the menu. The lady behind the register looked confused.

"Sir, I don't think you understand how much it'll cost," she told Yuki.

Yuki hadn't realized it yet but from her perspective, he didn't look like he had a lot of money. All his clothes were torn apart and the pieces that were left were dirty.

"How much will it be?" Yuki asked.

"About 200 silver, we don't negotiate here!" the lady replied with anger.

Yuki didn't care that she was giving him an attitude. All he wanted was his food.

[Extract: 300 silver]

"Keep the change, hope your day gets better," Yuki said as he walked away to sit at one of the tables to wait for his food.

On a normal day, he would've been agitated however, all Yuki wanted to do at that moment was to eat. He didn't care what he had to do to get his food.

Within 30 minutes, his food arrived. The lady from the register was not able to look Yuki in the eye after how she treated him. She placed his food on the table and walked away without saying a single word.

Yuki ate all the food presented to him without hesitation. He didn't care what others thought of him. All that mattered to him at that time was the food.

Once he finished, he felt as if he couldn't move. Even though he didn't want to take another step, Yuki knew that he still had some unfinished business to take care of. He threw out his garbage and began to head back to the shack.

Once Yuki had arrived back at the shack, he headed right to his room and began planning a way to kill the master of "INFINITE HOTEL". A person who can easily adapt to a new environment and set a plan into motion for a long time of success is dangerous to Yuki. There was no need for someone who may pose a threat to Yuki to continue to exist.

Yuki began to analyze the type of person the master would be.

"He's most likely weak as he relies on money instead of strength. Likely, he hasn't leveled up yet and is choosing to stay out of danger so he could gather as much money as he possibly could," Yuki thought to himself.

"It can be assumed that he won't be a threat to me personally, however, if he is even the least bit intelligent, he would hire bodyguards or mercenaries to come to his aid if anything were to happen to him," Yuki continued.

"While that would be scary, I shouldn't have to worry about that either since I'm one of the few people who would know about the forest of monsters, let alone be at level 2. The stat difference between level 1 and 2 is just too large to compensate for even with a large group of people. However, I should be careful just in case someone who's at level 2 comes to his aid," Yuki finished.

Once he had finished gathering his thoughts, Yuki prepared to look for a couple of weapons to assist him in the battle. Worst case scenario, the master of the shack would have an army with him so it would be better to carry an abundance of weapons.

"I should probably also wait for my ability reset timer to end as well, If it turns out there's someone who can stand against me, I can change my ability to completely overpower them," Yuki said as he went throughout the city to look for new weapons.
