As Corey looked at the group of Smileys outside, the whistling sound increased suddenly in his ears and mind causing him to groan and take several steps back.
The moment he took those steps, the whistling sound reduced giving Corey a massive relief.
"What the fuck is that sound?"
Corey muttered and then looked outside, he was a little farther so he had to squint his eyes a little to see outside, but when he did, a baffled expression appeared on Corey's face.
"What in the nine blazes of hell is that?"
In front of the glass door was a Giant Smiley holding a spear, but what was strange about that Smiley was the fact that it had black lines all over it's body. It would have looked cool if the black lines were like tats, but the black lines were like large veins and arteries of the monster, so it just looked…weird and strange.
Just as Corey was observing the Giant Smiley, it turned it's head towards his direction frightening the shit out Corey.
Corey's breath stilled and his body became stiff like a statue, he did not dare to move.
'Oh please, whatever god can hear me right now, please don't let your boy die. I'm still a virgin, I've not yet tasted the sweet taste of a woman.'
Corey had an expression of grief as he stood still, not daring to move at all.
And was the grief just cause he was a virgin?
Nope
He was tired of it all!
He just wanted to leave this damn scary building and go home!!
Was that so hard?!
It was like a higher being was toying with him.
Tears threatened to spill out of Corey's eyes but he forced them back inside.
'I won't cry. I won't give whatever fucked up higher being that's watching me the opportunity to see me cry. This daddy will not cry!'
Corey thought, encouraging himself internally and then used the side of his eye to see if the Black Smiley was still facing his direction and to his delight and relief, he saw no Smiley outside the glass door.
His tensed shoulders relaxed, the breath he had been holding in came out in full force and a drop of sweat fell from his chin unto the floor.
He was so scared to the point that he didn't even know he was sweating and he had been holding his breath for quite some time.
He just knew that the Black Smiley was so strong to the point that he would not even be able to put up a defense. His body was instinctively scared of it.
"I wonder which one is stronger between Black Smiley and those sealed monsters in the corridor." Corey muttered but he felt like the sealed monsters in the corridor were stronger.
He felt like there was a reason they were sealed and Black Smiley was probably not their match.
When he thought of Black Smiley once again, he remembered the whistling sound which warned him and his mind remembered something so he called up his status screen and looked for it.
[DANGER SENSE(Level 1): A passive skill that allows the holder to sense dangerous situations ahead of time. If the danger level surpasses a Tier 1 situation, the skill would not be activated. The higher the level of danger, the more warning is transmitted to the holder. The lower the level of danger, the lesser the warning transmitted to the holder.]
"So it's the skill that warned me."
Corey muttered and dismissed his status window.
"And from what the description says, Black Smiley should not be a Tier 1, but should be so strong that I definitely won't stand a chance."
Corey looked at the glass window with a strange glow in his eyes and then he spoke.
"When I'm strong enough I'll kill it. A Black Smiley should be more fun to kill than a normal Smiley."
A small smile appeared on Corey's lips unknown to Corey.
A few seconds later, Corey scratched his head slightly and with an uncomfortable look, he spoke.
"Uhmm. Don't know if you can hear me but thank you Universal System for giving me the skill danger sense, I would have died if not because of it."
"I promise not to beat you up too much in the future. Don't worry, this daddy always keeps his promise."
Corey patted his chest with a righteous look on his face and a second later, an embarrassed expression appeared on his face.
" That was so weird. I'm never doing that again."
Corey muttered with a slightly embarrassed look and then shook his head.
"I need to meet people. I think I'm finally running mad."
Corey said and walked towards the glass door with an excited expression on his face.
He was about to leave this damn building.
But just as he was about to leave, he heard a whistling sound.
His danger sense was warning him.
"…"
"God damn it!"
Corey cursed and looked at his surroundings with gritted teeth.
He was definitely not running back to the stairs or back into the building.
He was one step away from leaving this damn building and a damn Black Smiley was not going to stop him from leaving!
If he did not leave and find people, he felt that he might truly go mental!
Just as Corey looked around, he noticed a large flower pot approximately ten meters to the glass door and close to the flowerpot, he also noticed a plank.
His mind spun and the whistling sound became louder, almost reaching the unbearable level of the first time.
Corey wasting no time, dashed towards the double glass door and opened the door further away from the flowerpot. After doing that, he immediately ran to the plank, carried it and thanking the heavens in his mind once again for his increase in strength or he would have struggled with the plank.
After carrying the plank, he ran to the flower pot, placed the plank vertically by the wall close to the flowerpot and hid behind the flowerpot. f(r)eewebnovel
The whistling sound caused by the 'Danger Sense' skill was already so loud that if not because of the life and death situation at hand, Corey would have groaned and cursed the person that made the skill.
Tap Tap Tap
Corey heard sounds of footsteps and ignored the whistling sound.
He didn't dare to have a look at the Smileys entering inside.
He moved closer to the flowerpot and a few seconds later, he could see a huge figure climbing up the stairs from where he was.
When he saw the large figure, which he presumed to be Black Smiley, climbing up the stairs, Corey released a breath of relief and decided to take a peek so as to see where the other Smileys were and if a Smiley was close to the door.
Corey stood a little and peeked over the flowerpot, spreading the flowers in the pot apart just so he could see.
Though the moment he spread the flowers apart, he lost his balance slightly and pushed the flowerpot forward a little, but that little made Corey's eyes to widen and a fearful look to appear on his face.
The flower pot which was pushed forward slightly grazed the plank which was beside the flowerpot and because of that, Corey could see the plank falling in slow motion in his eyes.
He stretched out his hand to catch the plank before it falls, but his hand just barely grazed it and…
GBAM!!
"…"
Corey turned his head shakily towards the Smileys and Corey saw who?
Black Smiley! towards the end of the stairs, looking at him.
"I'm definite cursed."
Corey said with a grim smile and ran towards the plank immediately.
ROOAARRRRRR!!!
An extremely loud roar, much louder than any roar he had heard from a Smiley was released from Black Smiley causing Corey's fragile heart to race and luckily for him, he had fear resistance or else, he would have been petrified on the spot.
He grabbed the plank and rushed towards the door with a mad expression, ignoring his pounding heart, the roars of the other smileys and the terrifying presence he could feel getting closer and closer to him like the grim reaper coming for his soul.
Just as he was about reach the door, he saw a smiley appear outside the glass door and was about to enter the building through his only way out.
"Fuck off!!"
Corey shouted and without hesitation, slammed into the smiley causing it to fall and tumble a few meters.
Meanwhile Corey, after regaining his balance quickly turned back and saw Black Smiley ten meters away from him.
Wasting no time, he slammed the door shut, almost breaking the glass and placed the plank in between the door handles.
After he did that, he looked at Black Smiley and got another fright of his life.
Black Smiley was in a throwing position and before Corey could say anything or react, his spear was released.
Woosh!
BANG!!!
Corey petrified on the spot, looked at what looked like a round translucent shield which appeared in front of the door inside of the building, and prevented the spear from breaking the door.
Corey whose heart was beating so fast that he could hear it, looked at Black Smiley and it looked back at him.
Without roaring, saying a word or a change in expression, Black Smiley walked towards his spear and picked it up with the same creepy smile all Smileys always have.
It looked at Corey after picking up his spear and walked towards the stairs.
Corey backed away from the glass door a few seconds later and just as he was about to turn, he heard growls.
He turned and saw eight Smileys with their creepy smiles looking at him.
"…"
"Oh no no no no no. Gimme a fucking break!!!"
