The two-horned rabbits ran towards me as if their life depended on it.

Their crimson eyes gleam with malice, as they rush together with their sharp horns!

If they were to hit me right now, they would easily impale me to death.

But I quickly dart away and evade them!

They might be a bit faster than me, but they have a very hard time changing the direction of their charge.

I can easily jump and evade them on time, but the bad thing is that they are way too coordinated now.

They keep chasing after me.

After I evade them, they stop and quickly run back to me.

But something seems off, they seem to be using a pattern.

Just like the System told me, they don't really seem like living beings.

Living beings always do many things, unpredictable ones, they also often learn and try to attack you differently.

But these guys keep doing the same thing over and over again, with the same exact pattern.

They are just like a game mob.

I abuse this, of course, as I used to be a decent gamer before becoming a web novelist.

Though I am quite rusty because I haven't played many games since I started writing, the knowledge I got seems to be helping in this situation.

The rabbits run towards me as I stay still.

I let them approach me and at the very last second…

Jump!

I put all of my strength into my tired legs and jump quite high… is this the boost of the system stats?

Then, I land on the left side, while the rabbits were not able to change their direction nor stop in time, and hit the wall right behind me.

They ran so fast that their horns get stuck into the walls.

I glance at them with a malicious smile, as I raise my bloody bat.

Bye.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

I quickly make the rabbits into pulp, and right after, they explode into black smoke…

Oof.

I somehow did this.

I quickly gather the gold coins as I see that I gained a bit more EXP and two more Skill Points, I have now three… I don't think it amounts to anything, I bet Skills will cost like 100 Skill Points or more.

These Systems are always scummy, but that is often a sign of a good story, if the main character is helped too much by the System, the story really becomes dull and boring, the guy got to have the challenge to make it fun, right?

How can you keep your audience entertained if you don't bring them the action they crave from their boring daily lives where nothing supernatural happens? I guess I am not such a main character…

Ugh, I know this is not a novel or something, but god, give me a better cheat.

Ding!

[Congratulations, you have completed Room 1!]

[Monsters are the primary enemy in all dungeons, getting to know and realize their attack patterns to win against them is the way to go!]

[Now, proceed to Room 2 for your next challenge]

Suddenly, a large door opens up in front of me, right in the wall.

I sigh.

I quickly open my Inventory as I drink almost a whole liter of water, I am beaten.

I don't think I have run like this in a while.

I also eat an apple to feel a bit more refreshed, I didn't have breakfast but was too hyped that I completely forgot to eat something before entering, although I didn't forget to pack food, how weird.

Phew.

I rest a few minutes until I feel ready.

Alright, let's go.

I step into the next room as the door behind me closes immediately.

Ding!

[Welcome to Room 2!]

[In this room of the Tutorial Dungeon, you will learn about traps!]

[Traps are scattered all over the place, and you need to discern them with your sight]

[A slightly tall brick in the floor, or a strange protuberance on the wall. Sometimes traps come in all shapes and sizes]

[There is a chest in front of you, can you grab it while evading the traps? You will be able to complete the room by doing so!]

[Good luck!]

Good luck my ass! This is horrendous!

What am I supposed to do now?

I glance at the room.

It is the same as before, and there doesn't seem to be anything bad or weird about it.

But indeed, I have to discern it with my sight.

So I keep looking around me, I keep looking.

I have to look at everything.

But everything seems… normal.

Where exactly are the traps?

I walk a few steps ad nothing.

Maybe the system was trying to fuck with my mind?

No, I believe it was serious, I don't have to underestimate it.

The chest is just a few meters away from me.

I slowly step around, making sure to look for anything weird. Click.

What?

I suddenly realize I stepped over a slightly taller brick on the floor.

How would I have known?!

It was less than a centimeter taller!

Click, click, click!

Suddenly, a whole ass mechanism activates, and the walls suddenly open up, and arrows begin being shot at me!

Fuck!

I quickly run towards the chest, but out of desperation and ineptitude, I keep activating more traps!

WHOOM! magic

A whole log almost hits me and crushes me to death!

And when I ducked to evade it, a sharp pain takes hold of my back, as I see an arrow deeply encrusted on my flesh!

AAGH!

I quickly run as fast as possible, to the chest, to the damn chest!

However, as I keep walking, suddenly, the floor changes, and large needles begin to pop up every few seconds!

My feet are suddenly pierced by them and the pain is so horrendous I almost pass out!

Shit...

I am… so close!

My hand faintly touches the chest with my index finger.

Click, click, click…

Suddenly, all traps deactivate and go back to normal.

My entire body is showered in blood and pain.

I have to treat these wounds…

Ugh…

Ding!

[Congratulations, you have somehow survived!]

[Every time there is a chest near a trap, it often means that it has a healing potion to help you after you got through that hell!]

[Open the chest and heal yourself]

Are you serious?

What a sadistic System…

I slowly open the damn chest, and there it is, a few gold coins and… a beautiful vial filled with blue-colored liquid.

I grab it and drink it all.

Sweet.

Suddenly, a faint blue glow covers my wounds, as I take away the arrow from my back pain, and the pain slowly recedes.

The blood stops flowing out of the wounds, and the wounds slowly heal, but not completely straight away.

Nonetheless… it is better than nothing.

Ahh… And there are two more rooms? I am going to die before finishing this… I want to summon a waifu for fuck's sake.
