Chapter 4: ?Fenrir System?
[Congratulations! You have acquired the Fenrir system!]
[Congratulations! You have become the incarnation of the End!]
An articulate voice echoed in his mind, urging him to slowly regain consciousness. Once fully awake, his eyes fell on an unfamiliar ceiling.
"Where am I...?"
A faint voice left his lips, scanning the place slowly, seeing only white walls.
He tried to move a single muscle, but every cell in his body screamed in pain; moreover, he felt something connected to his left arm.
Turned his eyes, towards the arm, which was connected to a probe, and he frowned in confusion.
\'How did I get to this place, shouldn\'t I be dead?\'
Does not know how he came to this place. The last thing he remembered was how that beast crushed his body and placed it on an altar; after that, everything was empty in his memory.
The door to the room opened, and a beautiful, sexy woman walked in sensually swaying her hips, a tray in her hands.
"Ugh... Where am I?"
"Please don\'t move!"
The beautiful woman who had entered was Carol, the nurse in charge of his recovery.
Erik obeying Nurse Carol\'s words, lay down again.
"Where am I?"
"Currently, you are in the hospital."
Carol replied calmly approaching him with the tray.
"So, how did I get here?"
"It was the Hunter Association team that brought you here."
Carol began to undress him, while she responded, to change the bandages.
"The Hunter\'s Association?"
"Yes, indeed. The association."
"Hmm, thank you."
Erik thanked the nurse with a weak smile.
"You\'re welcome. For the time being, just rest and don\'t make too much movement, or else the wounds will reopen."
Carol smiled back, leaving the room after changing the bandages.
Which, she did very quickly, you could tell she was professional at her job.
"Haa... So I\'m in the hospital."
Finds it very hard to believe that he is alive after everything he experienced in the dungeon, where he saw the deaths of Adam\'s entire group.
\'Haa... if only this was all a dream\'.
Wanted to believe this was all a dream, but seeing the state he was in, he knew it was absurd to deny it.
As his gaze was lost on the ceiling, he heard the door open.
\'Why did the nurse come back so quickly?\'
This confused him, because the nurse just left a few moments ago, but she most likely forgot something. So Erik didn\'t think much of it.
However, the nurse did not enter, but rather two figures dressed in black entered the room: one with blonde hair and one with black hair.
"Who are you?"
The two people who entered did not respond; instead, he took two chairs and sat down next to the bed.
"Hello, I\'m Leon, leader of the country\'s Hunter Association special team, and this is my subordinate, Adrian."
The blond-haired man introduced himself as Leon and the black-haired person next to him introduced him as Adrian.
"?!"
Erik\'s eyes widened in surprise, at this information.
He knows very well that the special team of the hunters\' association, only the strongest and most talented people in the country belong to that team.
And the leader of that group is in front of it!
But despite the surprise, I noticed something that didn\'t add up.
Why did the leader of such an important team come to see him, a person who has no skills at all?
It is very rare for two such important people to come to visit him.
"What does the leader of this special team want from me?"
Erik asked cautiously, he didn\'t know what this person\'s intention was for him, so it was better to ask directly than to beat around the bush.
"I see, getting to the point, eh. Well, I don\'t like to beat around the bush either. I\'m here because I want to know what color the dungeon was when you entered and what happened inside."
Leon, with a small smile, revealed the reason why he came to him.
Now he understands why a person as important as Leon came to him, he had not thought of that. If it is because of what happened in the dungeon normal that they came because it is a case that is not normal.
Erik attended and began to relate everything that had happened after entering the dungeon.
He also described the overwhelming force of the huge wolf that, in a matter of seconds, had wiped out the entire group. He also added that the color of the dungeon was green, indicating that it was of low rank.
"And when I regained consciousness, I was lying in this bed."
Erik finished, making sure not to leave out any details.
Leon was silent after hearing the story, finding consistency in the perception that the dungeon was of low rank.
"I thank you for cooperating with us. Take it easy."
Leon after a moment of reflection. He rose from his chair and withdrew from the room along with his subordinate Adrian.
Leaving him alone again.
***
"This, Mr. Leon, about the story..."
"The story sounds real to me, especially when you described the strength of the boss monster. Though what puzzles me most is how he appeared unconscious outside the dungeon and she simply disappeared."
When Erik lost consciousness after he was torn apart by the huge wolf, his body appeared outside the dungeon.
The conditions in which he appeared were disastrous that no unskilled human would endure; and soon after, the dungeon disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
Leaving only the mangled body of Erik who was unconscious at the time.
"For now, we must be on the lookout for further irregularities such as these."
"Yes, sir!"
***
Being alone again, reflecting on everything that happened in the dungeon and on the deaths of the group.
"I feel very strange right now..."
Feels very strange thinking about the deaths of Adam\'s group members. Because he knows that their deaths are, in large part, his fault.
Because if she had not vomited at that moment due to her nerves, there might have been a chance that the outcome would have been different. But despite knowing that.
\'I don\'t feel anything...\'
Although in his mind he feels guilty, his emotions are the opposite, there is nothing but indifference and a feeling of guilt, as if his whole body had blocked all those emotions that had overwhelmed him at this moment.
He didn\'t understand what was going on with his thoughts; they didn\'t feel familiar, but rather like those of someone completely different.
Tti-ring.
[You have unread notifications]
An articulate voice echoed in his mind.
Erik looked around slowly in search of the source of the sound, but there was no sign of anyone.
\'Where is this voice coming from?\'
At this moment he is all alone where that voice came from. But just his gaze landed straight ahead, he found a window floating in front of him.
"What the hell?!"
Erik couldn\'t be more confused now, looking at the floating window that looked like something out of an online game.
Raised one of his hands to touch the translucent window with blue tones, but his hand simply went through it as if it were a hologram, which confused him even more than it already is.
"If it\'s like in those online games I\'ve seen, then to read the messages, how come...?"
Started digging into his memory trying to remember how the notifications opened in the online games he used to watch when he was about 15 years old.
"I think it was... open the notification tray. Ahh, I don\'t quite remember."
When he uttered the word "Open", the hovering window immediately disappeared, replaced by two new ones.
Tti-ring.
[Congratulations! You have acquired the Fenrir system!]
[Congratulations! You have become the incarnation of the End!]
Erik kept his gaze fixed on the suspended windows in front of him, unable to comprehend the magnitude of what he was witnessing.
\'Fenrir System, the incarnation of the End?\'
He wondered, feeling overwhelmed and confused as he read the two floating windows.
While he is distracted trying to come to terms with this absurd situation, one more window appears.
Tti-ring.
[To access the Fenrir system, say \'Status window\'].
Unable to help himself, Erik decided to think no more and accept this absurd situation, and with a long sigh.
"Status window."
And a window appeared completely different from the previous ones, and with more content.

Finished looking at the status window, he decided to focus his attention on the descriptions of the two skills that appeared.
