Max Health set back to 121

Do you wish to rename it?

Armo's smile grew even wider as he answered

Armo:"Yes."

Ping*

System notice!

What would you like to name "The Nameless"

 Armo looked at the screen while jumping behind a tree waiting to ambush the goblins that were chasing him

Armo was playing with the scythe handle while listening for the goblins. (Hmmm... it's a scythe which talks  so i should name it something demonic....) Armo thought while hearing Voices of something running behind him.

Armo's lips grew a smile as he heard a high pitched Voice

Goblin: "Elf man  this way! Follow me!"

Armo was smiling behind the tree while emitting bloodlust, itching for a fight,after all he was a soldier to the bone. He was counting seconds for the moment to jump behind the tree and launch a surprise attack.

The first goblin was ran past him, looked back, and noticed him. Fear grew on the little goblins face as he sensed the bloodlust Armo was emitting at him.

Before the Goblin could warn his comrades Armo readied his scythe behind his back, The white blade was reflecting the sunlight that hit it past the trees, Jumped at the goblin and with a one clean swoop,  sliced its head off from it's neck. As he looked at the head flying and the goblins body was falling to the ground, he hard a already familiar sound.

Ping*

Armo decided to ignore the message for now, As he knew that more goblins were coming from behind him and, almost instantly dropped his left leg knee to the ground and did a 540 degree spin on the ground, his right leg extended, tripping the goblin that was about to backstab him and then jumped on it's neck. instantly shattering its windpipe. 

Ping*

Armo didn't stop there, but instantly readied his scythe and jumped at the next goblin without hesitation and cleaved it's head in half. Armo continued his onslaught, only to realize, that the scythe was lodged in the goblins  chest, as it had cut through, the head and the neck.

"Shit!" Armo yelled and let go of the scythe and dodged an incoming dagger blow from an goblin by jumping to the side.

Armo got up instantly and noticed a goblin running at him full speed with it's dagger extended. Armo, noticed his chance to obtain a weapon, and grabbed the goblins wrist while side stepping.

The Goblin, being smaller, weaker and less experienced,, came to sudden stop, and was dragged to Armo's location, only to be stabbed by its's own dagger.

 as Armo ducked under an another's goblins strike. Armo tossed the goblin over him and as it was falling to the ground grabbed it's wrist and wrestled it's dagger from it's grip and used it to slice another's goblins neck, and kicking the head of the goblin on the ground, rendering it unconscious.. Armo got up and looked around, only to notice that the rest of the goblins were running away.

"Coward's huh? Armo said while wiping sweat from his forehead and taking deep breath's. Armo stood in a battle stance for a while, waiting for a second attack, but it never came. As Armo was confident that there were no danger close to him

he relaxed. letting his hands fall to his sides and legs straighten. "Whew.....I really am rusty" Alexis said as he let his body fall to the ground. He was laying on the ground recovering from the battle, when he decided to look at his messages.

System notice!

"Show new messages Armo said while raising his back on to a sitting position, and started to do stretch's 

System notice!

Due to you decapitating the target, you have induced fear in the rest of the targets.

(Oh?!, There is an instant death system in the game?, interesting....) Armo thought after reading the first message and continued reading while stretching his thighs.

System notice!

You have dealt an deadly blow!

Target's health fall instantly to zero.

(I knocked down the goblin and jumped on his neck. Instant kill?. It died?.....So...Goblins are weaker than humans. At least around the throat area....) Armo said while changing the legs to stretch

System notice!

You have dealt an deadly blow!

Target's health fall instantly to zero.

(This is where i lost the scythe, I need to go get it back from the corpse) Armo, thought while glancing at the goblin, which was almost cut in half, only to realize, that the scythe was missing. Armo jumped up and started looking around looking for the scythe from his field of perception, and walking all the way back to the clearing where he ran from the goblins while looking around from his surrounding's moving along the forest in a zick zack kind of manner

"Did the goblins take it?"Armo thought out loud as he walked around the clearing where he ran from the goblins, looking from the scythe. "Those goblins better be sorry for stealing my scythe, or i will cut their balls off and feed them to them!"

Armo  roared at the forest while walking around the edge of the clearing, looking for scythe.  even though he had not had the scythe for long, it was an legendary articraft, which Armo, being a little Knowledged of the gaming culture, knew it meant that the scythe was super good.

As Armo was walking back to the Tree, where he fought the goblins he looked at his third message.

You have lost "The Nameless"

Do to you being bound with the item,

it is automatically send to Your inventory

Armo, stopped on his tracks, and read the message again. 

(I have an inventory?, Why i did not know this?) Armo thought as he walked through the forest and the remembered the woman who claimed to be an Goddess. Who Exploded his eyes and tried to kill him, only to be saved by an mysterious person who called her his sister, by sending him to the hands of Death itself. As he was walking thorough the woods        Armo murmured "Bitch.....killing.....next time.......her again" After being reminded by himself what happened in the "Tutorial isle"

Armo shook his head, bringing back to the present and looked at the other messages

System notice!

You have dealt an deadly blow!

Target's health fall instantly to zero.

"This is where i stabbed the goblin with it's own dagger." Armo  said to himself as he was already close to the place, where he fought the goblins, and slowed down his pace and sat down on a fallen tree, and started going through the rest of the battle in his mind putting his felt hand under his chin and leaning on his knee, with it.

System notice!

You have dealt an deadly blow!

Target's health fall instantly to zero.

(Slashed an Goblin's throat and knocked out, the last one,) Armo thought while starting to read his last two message.

"Oh! I levelled up!" Armo said as he got up from the tree and started walking again, while reading both messages twice to be sure. (Hmmm.... if i say the command "show status" or "open inventory" could i get them on front of me?"

Armo decided to try, stopped walking and said "Show status!" in a commanding army sergeant voice, while waiting for something to happen. Suddenly a screen popped up in front of Armo's eyes.

Armo read through his status calmly, and noticed that he had 2 skill that he didn't know off.

(How do i get extra information on them) Armo thought and put a hand on his chin, a bad habit that he used to have that showed people when he was thinking.

"Show Undominatable" Armo said and a another screen popped up.

Undominatable

which can never be, altered or controlled.

Armo looked at the message and his jaw dropped.

(I can not feel fear or confusion?, immunity to mind magic?, as in i can't be brainwashed? I have traits from real life?, wait.... does that mean...)

Armo thought. and then let his hand fall back to his side, cold sweat started forming on his neck as he realized that there is a chance that everything of him was in the game. Including his "Bad side"

Armo snapped his head back to reality and decided to read his skill before hopping on conclusions,

"Show Limit break" And an another, window popped up in front of him

Limit break Beginner 1 (0.00%EXP)

(Level up this skill to increase skill duration and decrease skill penalty)

Armo read, the skill information, and breathed out relieved gasp, He in the game was not a perfect copy of him in real life, as he had never had any experience of anything like an limit break. Still, He was doubtful, that the system would not notice such an huge thing as his "badside."

"Better,be careful for now" Armo said and walked to the location, where he fought the goblins, only to notice that all the bodies were gone, not even blood on the ground,  expect from the one He knocked out. Which seemed to be waking up.

Armo had no time to think of the missing bodies as he sprinted to the waking goblin and jumped on top of it and slapped it to it's cheek.

"Wake up!" Armo said to the goblin, which snapped out of it's "Sleep" from the slap and was startled by Armo sitting on top of him and shouting at it.

The goblin pulled his to protect his head and screamed out of fear "ELF MAN! ME NO DO ANYTHING ME SWEAR!"Which on the other hand went out of Armo's expectation, as he thought that Goblin's were mindless monster who's primary words were Eat, Drink, Shit, Piss, Fuck and Woman. "Calm down i'm not going to hurt you if you answer my questions." Armo said as an attempt to try  calm  the goblin which was shivering in fear under him and hiding it's face from him with it's hands.

"ME WILL TELL EVERYTHING PLEASE JUST ELFMAN NO HURT ME!" the goblin yelled at him and tried to turn to his stomach, so he wouldn't need to face Armo, which was impossible as he was sitting on top of him.

"Why did you attack me!" Armo asked the goblin, which answered immediately with "ME SORRY ELFMAN ME DIDN'T WANT TO BUT OTHERS PRESSURE! SAID THAT ELFMAN PRETTY SAID THAT ELFMAN GOOD TRIBUTE FOR CHIEF!"

"Chief?" You have an Village!" Armo asked now interested in a chance to fight, after all. The last fight was only a warm up for him. The Goblin now decided to show it's face. And it was ugly, The goblins headshape was that of an balloon, which was slowly leaking Air, Round, but not really. around middle of its face it had an big crooked nose, which had snot coming out of.  on the base of its nose it had two, small yellow eyes which were begging him for mercy. Otherwise it had big, pointy and green ears and its face was full of wrinkles, and in its mouth were a full row of yellow and brown teeth.

The Goblin started speaking to him suddenly "Will Elfman let me go if me tell where Village?" The goblin asked, now hope shining from it's eyes  as it realizes it can save it's life by selling him the location of his Village.

(Truly a cowardly bunch these Goblins) Armo thought while getting off the goblin and letting it stand up.

"Where is the Village?" Armo asked the goblin which was smacking dust off its loincloth. The Goblin raised it face to him and answered happily, as it knew that it was going to live another day if it tell him "That way!" and the goblin pointed towards the forest. 

Armo smiled at it, said "Thank you!" and snapped it's neck by grabbing it's head and twisting it.

The goblin's face was filled with shock and fear as it's lifeless body falls to the ground, and Armo walked over it. and started walking towards the way the goblin pointed at. Armo looked back at the corpse and said to it. "Sorry, i don't have any mercy for traitors," put his hands, in his pockets, only to notice that he was naked and cowered in blood.stopped and realized  that he had an inventory. And said the first command to open the inventory that came to his mind

"Open inventory" Armo said as his a void of space manifested in front of him and he got an list of what it contained in his mind. Well, in a way. Technically he just "Knew" what was inside. Inside the inventory were

Beginner training gear.

"The nameless"

a jug of water

10x Rye bread

1 wooden club

4 rusty knifes

 3 silver and 2 copper

6 Goblin throfie's 

Armo pulled out his trusty scythe and was surprised that the scythe didn't speak anything to him.

(Guess it's sleeping or something, it sounded pretty tired in our last talk)  he then got clothed in the basic training gear, which were basically, all white. Running, boots, padded trousers, padded shirt and padded gloves.

Now, that Armo was geared up he started walking to the Village, while he was walking to the Village

he Looked at the Scythe and said to it "Now, what shall i name you?"
