- AT AN UNKNOWN AREA -_

Zoi appears in an abandoned area, it looked just like a city just that everywhere was on fire and had some places filled with lava, oceans we're lava, rivers were lava everything that was meant to be water was lava, he couldn't even sweat, the heat was so intense that immediately he excreates sweat it evaporates.

Zoi tore off a part of his shirt and immediately tied his left arm exclaiming in pain " YOU HAVE ARRIVED AT THE PENALTY ZONE " the system displayed " ack, dammit I can't believe it hadn't even undergone it's complete mutation while I was fighting it " zoi yelled as he punched the ground " dammit, it was just toying with me " zoi murmured as he began to tear up " ouch " zoi exclaimed immediately removing his hand from the ground " damn it's hot " " DON'T THINK YOU'RE SAFE NOW, YOU'RE GONNA FACE SOMETHING MORE PAINFUL THAN WHAT YOU'VE EXPERIENCED. " The system displayed as a lot thud immediately shook the ground, it began to crack spewing lava from within it " I have a bad feeling about this " zoi said holding on to his arm as he faced the direction the sound came from, immediately his eyes widened in suprise, a mob of skeletons we're running towards him, but wait they were different, they we're pitch black and the cracks on their bones were red with smoke emitting from them and all of them were equipped with weapons, zoi seeing the death approaching danger, he struggled to stand in order to avoid the mob but he immediately fell to the ground, he felt pain from his feet, to his supprise the sow of his thick leather boot had melted off burning his feet, other part of his clothes had also started to burn including his skin, he exclaimed still trying to crawl out of the way but the pain didn't let him to " System " he called out " YES. " The system replied " put all my stat points into my strength and speed " zoi stammered as he managed to stand " YOU REALLY DON'T WANT TO GIVE UP, LATER YOU'LL STILL END UP DEA-" shut the fuck up and do what I told you to!!! " zoi yelled ".... heh, I'll end up... dead,..... fine but I won't go down without a fight " zoi murmured as he staggered towards the mob that was fast approaching, his feet continued to burn but despite that he held it in no matter how much he wanted to fall he kept standing with one single thing on his mind ' KILL ' as soon as the fore runner of the mob reached him about to attack him it skull immediately broke into pieces the others immediately stopped in suprise the speed of zoi's punch was on a whole other level they couldn't see how the skeleton was defeated instantly, but that didn't stop they're morale, they all screeched in anger and kept coming towards him " DING! CONGRATULATIONS YOU'VE DEFEATED A LOW LEVEL CHAOS SKELETON, ALL STATS INCREASED BY 1, YOU'VE GAINED 3 STAT POINTS. " the system displayed as zoi bent forward, calmly waiting for the skeletons to reach him his blood began seep out of his leg but immediately evaporating, as soon as the distance between zoi and the mob closed zoi immediately punched the ground directly in front of him immediately destroying it uncovering the lava beneath it, all the skeletons around there immediately fell in dying instantly, numerous system windows started to appear with the same notification but zoi ignored them all, he leapt over the hole close to reaching the other side but began to fall towards the sea of lava, but he wasn't freaked out at all, because he knew among the remaining mob of skeletons there would one dumb enough to try to attack him on air, right as the skeleton was about to slash him with a sword he immediately stepped on it's head using it as a foothold and jumped again pushing it down into the lava, as soon as he landed at the other side the skeletons gave him no test the immediately jumped after him, he was surrounded by skeletons at his front and a deatg pool inviting him to come swim behind him, he looked at them as they were about to land on him with a cage of swords and Spears with a fierce expression, immediately he felt the tip of the weapons making contact with his body he immediately jumped forward away from the area causing the skeleton to crash into each other and fall into the lava there was 5 remaining he picked one of the rusty, old swords that laid on the ground and pointed it towards them, he spat out blood and looked at them with blood lust, it felt like they were knocking on death's door, they all turned around and began to run except one, it looked different from the others and had a top quality weapon including armor obviously, " so you're the ring leader, huh " zoi said as the skeleton immediately appeared at his front, it grabbed his head and slammed him to the ground, pushing him further into the ground attempting to smash hi skull. Zoi tried his best, trying to push the skeleton away but the skeleton maintained it's dominance over him, it pushed his head deeper thinking of drowning him in lava, it began to seep out through the ground and burn zoi's face, zoi screamed in pain squirming around, but no matter what he did the skeleton didn't let him go but instead push him deeper, zoi swung his arm and legs around until he made contact with a rock beside him, but the skeleton hadn't noticed zoi held tight unto it and smashed the skeleton's skull with it, unlike other parts of it's body, it's head wasn't sheltered, but one strike wasn't enough to take it down, zoi kept on striking and striking until he was freed from it's grasp, before it could regain it's grasp zoi attempted to hit it again, but it immediately slapped it away from his hand and raised it's fist about to punch him, but in the blink of an eye, zoi held unto it's chest armor and gave it a nice head butt,pushing it away from him, zoi held unto it again but this time through it's eye socket and dragged it towards the crack created on it's skull, immediately splitting it's skull into two, the remaining four skeletons that came back because their ring leader who had the upper hand was now defeated, attempting to make a run for it they took a step back, but immediately zoi fell to the ground unconscious, they grinned mischievously and ran towards him to finish him off but immediately crashed into each other, they looked at themselves in confusion and all of a sudden they turned against each other trying to rip each other's skull off, only one can be the true champion, they had become blinded by greed wanting to seize the victory for themselves, the fight went on, until finally one of them stood victorious over the others dead skeletons, just one problem it was at it's limit, it fell to it's knees and looked into the sky as a shed of tears dropped from it's eye socket, immediately it's skeleton fell apart and then just like that it died. " THESE USELESS BASTARDS, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DEFEAT HIM, NOT THE OPPOSITE..... WHATEVER I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M DOING THIS...." "CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU SURPRISINGLY SURVIVED THE PENALTY ZONE, ALL ABNORMALITIES HAS BEEN HEALED,YOU SHALL NOW BE TAKEN TO THE STARTING POINT, OH AND FOR A MATTER OF FACT, WHAT HAPPENED HERE WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN, WE'LL MAKE SURE YOU CAN NEVER CLEAR IT AGAIN. HAVE A NICE DAY~. " The system displayed as zoi immediately disappeared from the area.

- AT THE THANATOS RESIDENCE -_

Zoi wakes up blinded by the brightness of the system's screen, he waves his hand around trying to get it away from his face, he immediately looks at his left hand with a suprise expression, it had grown back perfectly, as if it was never bitten off, he looks at his whole body noticing all his injuries were gone " what the heck, is this the work of the system " zoi wondered, flexing his left arm " I see you have awoken " zoi hearing the familiar voice immediately sat up, spotting a girl around her 20's, she had pitch black hair with some strands of white and red eyes, she sat calmly just in front of the bed zoi laid, she sipped from a cup of tea as she stared at him, " what the heck is she doing there " zoi wondered with a terrified expression.
