Raven and the Squirrel stared at each other without moving a muscle, Raven had tried checking the stats of the squirrel but was told that his level was insufficient, he was still at level 0 and he needed about 100 EXP to level up to 1.
[A/N: forgot to add Level to the Status Page, in the previous chapter]
"Whoever moves first, would be the first to die" Raven muttred under his breath as the squirrel growled patiently waiting for it's pret to move but if it was playing a game of patience, it picked the wrong opponent as waiting was Raven's forte.
After about some time, the squirrel growled impatiently as it pounced at Raven, and it was fast, but Raven still saw it's movement and he instinctively threw a punch which he targetted at the squirrel's head, there was a squeak before the squirrel crashed to the ground, it charged back up and tried to attack Raven again, but he didn't give it a chance as he grabbed the squirrel and kept slamming it on the ground until it turned into meat paste. When he saw that it had finally died, he released the breath that he had been holding and collapsed to the floor, he wiped his bloodied face with the back of his hand, then he looked at the squirrel which had a blue cube hovering over it.
"Hmm..." he stretched his hand to grab it, only for it to disappear into specks of light. He was confused about what happened when a holographic screen appeared before him.
[Energy from F order Black Squirrel, do you wish to absorb?]
[Yes or No]
Raven blinked, _ isn't this just like a game? , So he selected yes and he suddenly felt something enter him and he felt invigorated. He immediately checked his status.

Raven noticed the difference in his stats and he finally understood, anything he killed could give him stats points and experience points, and can also increase his health Points capacity and vitality. He also noticed the constitution now had levels. He selected it and was given a lot more information on it.
[Stone Wukong Constitution: Host level of constitution is still too low, that means he still has the constitution of a normal human, to increase level, host is required to find and consume blood lava rocks]
Blood lava rocks?
What in the hell?_
Still in his stupor, the holographic screen changed,
[Congratulations to host on completing quick Quest]

Raven stared incredulously at the screen as his mouth twitched, "I just got this system and it's trying to get me killed"
************************************************
The World's Government seem to have expected an occurrence like this, as they immediately made a World broadcast explaining the situation on ground. The Planet was evolving, and in order to protect it's inhabitants, it created the World Path System, which provided every human and beasts alike 100 MP, those who can't hold the power have been driven to kill, so the government referred to them as berserkers.
The government also explained that there would be sightings of other races from other planets around the earrh solar system, they were told not to be frightened by them. Also, the military were sent to take in every youngster and train them up, as facilities to do that has been provided. They also gave lectures on how to use the World Path System features, they endeavoured every human to level up to 1 so as to be able to choose a path they will walk on.
Raven walked home as he watched the broadcast which was being shown on the billboards available, he had already leveled up to 1 after killing three F order beasts, not without having to be injured severely though, especially his last kill, which was a level 5 F order Mountain Goat, whose name was changed to Frost Goat, as it used the ice element.
He has also gotten about 3 new skills, adding the one he got from the black squirrel, it made it 4 skills to which he'll check out once he settles down.
Raven hadn't walked far, when there was a loud crash opposite, when the dust settled, Raven immediately dove into an alley and peeked out, standing in the settled dust was a berserker, having not seen a berserker before, Raven picked out a common trait he noticed, the berserker looked humane, except for the glowing red pupils, with black cornea, black rune marks that ran across his arms, also there was a fiendish aura around it. Looking at the face properly, Raven gaped cause it was none other than Focker.
Focker turned his head to look in Raven's direction causing him to dodge back in, Focker's lips pulled into a wide fiendish grin.
"No need to hide, Raven... I can smell you already"
Raven stuck to the wall and moved away, as Focker approached, "you know what... I awakened the metal element despite me going berserk, and another thing, I'm already a level 2 F order" Focker created a rod that protruded out of his left palm which he dragged across the floor, he turned into the alley and noticed Raven leaping over the wall and running away.
"Heh...running won't save you, Raven" Focker's grin widened as he ran after Raven.
