Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode



Suddenly heard, a voice that came from inside his head startled Clyde. He frowned sharply because the sound didn't come alone but was accompanied by a sudden stinging pain.

"Who are you?" Clyde asked in a sharp tone. He held his head which felt pain as if someone was trying to forcefully enter his brain.

[ "I am the creator of your system." ]

The frown on Clyde's forehead became sharper as the pain in his head worsened with every passing second.

'Do you have a way to talk to me without torturing me?' Clyde asked in a tormented tone.

[ "Unfortunately not. I just wanted to say that what you think about your system is wrong." ]

'What do you mean?'

[ "Your system will be something good for you. You have nothing to fear." ]

'How can I trust you? Are you a member of that Order of Mindweaver?'

[ "Yes. But I served a different Celestial. My master ordered me to create a different system than the others. And now you have that system." ]

'W-Who...' Clyde felt that he couldn't take the pain in his head anymore.

[ "Its God-" ]

Before the voice in his head finished answering his question, Clyde had already lost consciousness. He collapsed on the floor on his stomach.

The pain he felt drained every energy in his body and the end it, also took away his consciousness.

~~~

The next day, Clyde opened his eyes which felt very, very heavy. He felt the cold floor beneath him and his body ached from sleeping on the hard surface.

"Argh... fuck..."

Clyde tried to lift his body. However, he fell back to the floor. All of his limbs seemed to refuse to cooperate when the pain in his head struck again.

'What the fuck is going on?'

Clyde kept trying to lift his body. At least, if he has to be passed out again, he will be passed out on a softer and more comfortable surface.

So Clyde pushed his body as hard as he could onto the bed. After extra effort, Clyde finally made it to the bed.

Not long after, he let his consciousness go again because he was unable to maintain it for a long time in the midst of that great pain.

~~~

Several hours passed without Clyde coming out of his room. Finally, noon came, Clyde was only able to lift his body from the bed because the pain in his head had disappeared considerably.

He came out of his living quarter to look for food. When he opened the room, Leon was already outside his room with Rosie.

They both looked surprised to see Clyde's pale face and the look on his face that looked in pain.

"What happened to you?!" Rosie sounded worried. She couldn't believe that something could cause Clyde this pain. If so, then whatever it is must be something stronger than him.

"I'm fine," Clyde replied, waving his hand in the air. "What's the time now?"

"It's already noon," Leon answered while still watching his face. "We're here because we haven't seen you since morning."

"That... Uhh..." Clyde had a hard time coming up with an excuse. "I have a headache. But I'm fine now."

For now, that's all he can say. He hoped they wouldn't ask more because he couldn't think of an answer right now. All this because of that damn voice that came last night.

"I want to eat now," Clyde said and walked past the two of them.

Leon and Rosie looked at each other in a daze. They finally came to a conclusion, today they wouldn't be going to the Ruin.

Clyde ate his lunch with his mind thinking about what he had experienced last night. A mysterious entity from the Order of Mindwever contacts him via painful telepathy.

He - Clyde assumes from his voice - contacted him after he talked about the origin of the system, then he thought about the possibility of the system that could become a problem later.

'They can monitor me every time?'

He looked unenthusiastic while stuffing his mouth. Realizing that there was someone inside his head all the time made him uncomfortable.

'Shit. What should I do now?'

There's suddenly a lot of trouble happened to him when yesterday he felt that everything would be fine. What he considered to be his own 'plot armor' was actually not that good.

Clyde exhaled and finished his food as fast as he could. He decided not to think too much about it now and focus on the task at hand. That is doing the expedition mission. 

Maybe when he gets out of this Fortress, he can communicate better with the voice from the Order of Mindweaver.

~~~

Clyde gathers Leon, Albert, Wiley, Rosie, and Lola back for their expedition. Even though they already thought that Clyde would not go on an expedition today.

"Are you sure you're all right?" Lola asked.

Clyde nodded curtly. "Don't worry about it. Now, we have to do another expedition. Let's do it in the same Ruin."

They headed for Hammer's room again. When he got there, Hammer had already finished making a crossbow that was smaller than the crossbow Lola was using.

"Now then, young lady," Hammer said, presenting the crossbow proudly. "I made this crossbow with the Mana crystals you brought yesterday.

You only need to flow a little Mana here to create an arrow. Even if you still don't know how to quickly create Mana arrows, with this you will be able to do it easily."

Lola received the crossbow with a happy smile. "Thanks, Uncle!"

Clyde turned. 'Since when did she decide to call him uncle?'

The crossbow was slender and emitted a thin pink mist from the shaft and strings.

Unfortunately, the weapons for the others weren't ready as Hammer focused on the crossbow all night. 

The others didn't have any problem with that since the weapons they currently had were still pretty good after Hammer and his men re-sharpening them.

"Let's go."

They entered the portal and disappeared into the same Ruin. They hunted the remaining monsters in that world until their level was sufficient.
