Chapter 1: Meeting the players

  It's been a weird day for me, if you think about it, if I was a "Player" I wouldn't feel as much pain from wounds or fatigue from over exertion of energy but as a part of this world, I feel, smell, taste and any sense there is, 100%... I've talked to the players regarding the pain they get whenever they fight mobs outside the village and all they say was.

  "Eh? I guess it's something like a scratch you'd receive from a cat or something of the sort I guess?"

  And something along those lines. Of course, I went ahead and tried to fight the mobs outside, it was a horned rabbit?

  I suddenly received a pop-up of the same kind after I looked at the mob.

  Huh? NPCs can receive skills? What was the word the players kept saying again... Ah!

  "Status Window Open."

  Huh? Other than my luck stat, everything else seems normal. The titles however doesn't seem normal. World Jumper... I suddenly feel like one of the players, except for the fact that the term "NPC" is plainly stamped on the first title I have.

  Well, I shouldn't be bothered by it now, I already knew it from the first few hours I was here.

  Let's get back to business, killing that mob. It's only level 2 and I'm like level 15 so I don't think I need a weapon for this.

  And so, I charged straight at the enemy.

  "Thank you very much for saving me."

  "It's fine sir, but next time, make sure not to get too close to the monsters, they tend to be very ferocious." The girl waved goodbye and went on her way.

  She was quite beautiful, and deadly.

  I tried using Observe on her but all I saw was "???" even on her name.

  Still, if it wasn't for her, I might have known what would happen to an NPC once HP drops to 0. This is bad, I've already died once, I don't want a repeat of that, especially since there might not be a 'round 2' for me in this game.

  "Equipment Window"

  Huh. So I barely survived thanks to a crappy starter leather set and the starting level and stats I got. My attack is non-existent. I should do this safely from now on. Too bad I wasn't able to ask that girl her name...

  "Achoo!" a girl sneezed out, alerting any enemies of hers around the vicinity.

  "Well, that's that for stealth. You alright Aisha? Your cold just wasted plan A."

  "I'm fine Vik. Let's just go with Plan B then, pretty sure everyone here prefers that anyways." hearing those words, the others couldn't help but laugh and nod.

  "Alrighty then, ATTACK!"

  "Finally! Where have you been, you brat?!" I suddenly felt a hard fist hit my head as soon as I heard this voice.

  "OW! What the heck old man!" talking like this caused me to receive another hit on my head.

  "You disrespectful boy, is that any way to talk to your father?!" Gulp. He's the father of this body?!

  'Observe'

  huh? Leveled up? Is there a skill window?

  "Skill Window"

  Only that? Well, I guess I should be thankful to even have a skill I guess.

  "Hey Zeke, your mother was searching for you. You better head home soon or else... Gulp, you know how your mother is when she's mad, I don't want any part of it so you better hurry."

  Oh! A Quest. Well, this seems a bit easy since the difficulty is G and the village itself isn't that big... Wait a sec. Where the hell do I live?!

  I turned around only to find that my 'Dad' is already gone. Crap.
