All Chapters of THE DEVILS CASTLE: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

It was August, and the sky was bright with a harsh sun.Even though the thick curtains were drawn shut, the venomous sunlight was still visible.The only light in the room came from it, which shone through the gaps in the curtains to form a square border.Ring!Once more, the phone rang.It went to the answering machine after three rings.“Mike? Doctor Frank is here. You will turn eighteen years old in one year. You will completely lose your chance if you wait to start your genetic treatment!As usual, polite and official.Mike focused on the game cartridge in his hand and ignored the message.Bright red color with a thumbnail-sized size.Mike pushed the cartridge that had consumed all of his savings into the virtual helmet's cartridge slot after checking it.Tuck!The speaker of the virtual helmet let out an alert.He didn't bother.When it came to an underground game, there was evidently neither a manufacturer's warning nor a safety hazard warning.This game made the claim that it c

Before putting the backpack on his back, he gave the corpse another look, then turned to the water bottle and canned food. The lighter was always in his shirt pocket. His attire had already begun to resemble that of the city's civilian population before he entered the dungeon in front of him. Fortunately, it was not damaged.Mike was getting ready to leave, dagger in hand.He had no more reason to stay in the empty room.Mike's retreating steps accelerated as the sunlight slowly faded through the gap in the tightly sealed window.The criminals would come out at night.Because Mike didn't intend to confront a gang of criminals head-on, he wouldn't stay in this room that gave away his presence.At some point, any house would become a target for raiders."The sewers or drains would be a much better hiding spot!"Mike was contemplating his next move.It didn't have to be cozy; all that mattered was that it be big enough for him to hide.The underground seemed like the best option because

A half-empty pack of cigarettes fell into Mike’s hands.[Name: Cigarettes][Type: Miscellaneous][Rarity: Common][Attribute: Has a small effect on fear and anxiety.][Effect: None][Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes][Remark: In the face of true fear or panic, it’s better than nothing!]A second lighter was also there, in addition to the pack of cigarettes. The newly discovered lighter had the same design and details as the ones Mike had previously acquired.Mike put the new lighter and the cigarettes he was holding in his shirt's pocket after looking at them.He did not use tobacco.Firstly, due to his health, and secondly, due to his financial difficulties, he was unable to be.He kept his distance due to his genetic condition and the fact that a pack of cigarettes can cost as much as two meals in the real world.However, he would not mind smoking while playing the game.Naturally, this was not the time.Mike sat down, carefully examining the body once more. He left after verifying

He was forced to act. It was a matter of life or death.He kept smiling as he looked at the attributes window.[Stamina: 20]His stamina had dropped from a hundred to twenty during the battle.However, as he kept taking deep breaths, he was recovering by one percentage point per second.After a short rest, Mike was able to stand up again.He quickly searched the body in front of him for potential loot.[Name: M1905][Type: Gun][Rarity: Damaged][Attack: Normal][Magazine: 7 rounds][Attributes: None][Effect: None][Able to bring outside of the dungeon: Yes][Remark: This is an 11mm handgun that has not been maintained well. Beware of jamming bullets!]……[Name: Bullet][Type: Ammunition][Rarity: Common][Attributes: None][Effect: None][Able to bring outside of dungeon: Yes][Remark: Rounds for an 11mm handgun. Potent handgun bullets.]…….Mike was limited to two M1905 handguns and six rounds of ammunition.Other than those, there was nothing else that was useful to carry.Mike fe

"Seems like I'm in serious trouble!" Mike spoke softly.He wanted to learn more about Colleen from her.Because he had always had to work for a living as a child, he had developed the habit of never trusting anyone completely.especially in situations where life or death is at stake, like this one.We're both in trouble, and you're not the only one. When we killed those shooters last night, there were witnesses back there. They will travel to the Vulture to tell him everything. He will immediately begin his hunt for us if he learns that we killed both of his men. He'll assign all of his men to the task. Until he sees our dead bodies hanging, that fucker will not stop! He uses it to protect his ego and pride! Colleen spoke with clenched teeth.She then said, "My food will last me about two days," turning to Mike. What do you think?Mike responded, "About the same," widening his backpack to reveal the remaining cans of food inside.Because Mike was sincere, Colleen believed that she als
