Congratulations,Jack you have gotten a unique soul bound weapon
Jack stared at the screen with a awkward smile. For 30 seconds, the screen just kept repeating the word 'spinning'.
The lottery ticket in his hand started to fade out of existence and from the soft glow, a pack of cards emerged from it.
Joker's cartes
A Joker is judged by their skills and tricks and one cannot go without a pack of cards. In a pack of cards there are 54 cards. Everyday the Joker can draw 5 cards. With each card having different effects.
Diamond - become as strong and as durable as a diamond.
Clover- ones fate changes with luck and can be influenced by even the flick of a hand
Hearts - heals one heart , and ones body will naturally heal
Spade - the strongest of the cards and yet the weakest
Diamond increases defence and strength by the never on the card
Clover puts an special effect on a target based on the number on the card
Heart heals a target with the ace being able to revive a person
Spade can be used as a weapon with the damage being based on the number on the card (disappears after 24 hours)
Joker's are unpredictable and use with caution (#error)
Cool down 90 days
"Ok... That looks scary and unpredictable. Ok on to the next skill ticket." Jack stuffed the black box of cards into his pocket. Before picking yes for the skill ticket.

"This could be quite useful to get away. Ok time to find out more about what happened." Jack turned on his laptop and opened the internet. Electricity was cut due to unknown reasons. On the internet, forums were filled with people spamming about how it was the end of the world or that it was god punishing the people.
Jack continued skipping the spam to read useful information. Half of city A was destroyed by something that looked like a dragon. People that got close said it was a greater black wyrm with a Lv with three question marks. City B was being invaded by an army of wolves with a supposed named Lv 90 big white wolf. City Centre,the city Jack is in is being destroyed by a fight between a chimera and an army of goblins. City D was...
As Jack read through the forum, he began to plan what he should do. Jack does not have many friends as he quit school when his parents passed away in a car accident leaving Jack a gigantic sum of money. Jack dropped out of school and spend most of his time learning card tricks and how to gamble. Surprisingly Jack realised he had a knack for gambling and that was how he spend the rest of his days.
First Jack looked out of his two story building and outside was carnage incarnation as there were people's body parts and blood littered on the street outside his gates and thanked the heavens he did not go out. There were many goblins outsides doing unforgettable scenes. One goblin was killing a baby while letting the mother watch while another was raping a body that lacked almost half of it while the other half was lost in the mountain of body parts all over the place.
Jack almost puked seeing what was happening outside. Jack did some breathing exercise he was thought when young to stay calm and planned what he would do next. Jack decided to make a checklist on what he should do.
Checklist
1.pack weapons and food into a bag (because system does not allow inventory till Lv 10. Stupid system)
2. Find Kelly
3. Survive and find a meaning in life
Ever since his parent's death, he gave up on most things and he sometimes did not eat or drink anything and Kelly was always there for him. She cooked for him interacted with him so he did not think of doing something stupid and even saved him once when he forgot to eat and drink something for a few days. He literally owed his life to her.
Jack picked out a Camo patterned backpack that Kelly had given him for a birthday present even though he did not use it and headed to the kitchen while ignoring the cold body of the goblin with it's guts and gory bits sticking out from it.
Jack picked out a few sharp knifes that could be used for throwing and ignored ones that were too big to be thrown as he had his antique sword which had better stats. He made an improvised knife holder around his belt and started stuffing energy bars and water bottles into his bag. Enough to sustain him but not heavy enough to impact his movement. He had many energy bars as he always said that as long as it provided him with energy it was good enough for him which made Kelly rebuke him several times about it.
Jack than decided to check his house for anything else he could use after changing out of his torn clothe and found a few interesting stuff
Antiseptic (Lesser)
Cures minor infections
Bandage (minor)
Increases healing by 10%
Ring of agility (common)
Increases agility by 2
Jack found the ring of agility by the corpes of the goblin and realised he had missed it when he picked up the things. After double checking whether he missed anything important, he faced his parent's pictures and asked for protection and thanked them one final time before he left the house with a slight tear in his eye.
