Chapter 5. Quests
7 days had passed, and there were 7 more to go before the second Elimination Round.
The sound of stomachs growling with hunger echoed through the small underground room where Shin and the others stayed.
They hadn't eaten in two days now—surviving only on water. The stalls were completely empty. Shin had been scouting for food each night, sometimes bringing back two dried slices of stained bread... sometimes, nothing at all.
The only supermarkets still stocked with goods were the ones Darren had conquered and made them his own. But stepping near them was like tying a noose around your own neck—instant death.
But hunger wasn't the only problem. They were also unable to level up, and the second Elimination Round was drawing near.
Then, like divine intervention, all their systems lit up with notifications.
"It's a quest!" Shin jumped up before even reading what it was about.
But when he did...
> [Quest: Use Lewd-Reap skill once and steal someone's skill]
[Reward: 50XP + Stolen Skill]
He sighed, glancing down. Same quest like the one the system had given him some days ago. Not only was he completely unprepared to use the Lewd-Reap skill, but the reward wasn't even enough to get him to level 2. He needed 100XP for that.
