《A Mouse's Grand System》The Forest of Stones
Advertisement
Arvion awoke to the rich smell of rain and the harsh wet sensation of water droplets drenching his fur. After that instance, he scrambled awake feeling out around him trying to gather where he was. That was when he saw it. A gigantic tree standing at least hundreds of feet into the air, Arvion just a mere few inches tall, felt just how significant his small size was.
As Arvion turned around he was confronted with hundreds of these hundreds of feet tall trees. He was in a forest for sure, but just how large this forest was a mystery. But from the size of a mere mouse, the size was sure to be incredible.
The second most important thing Arvion noticed was the fact that he could barely even see over the huge grass. He stumbled into a standing position which felt oddly straining. Looking around seemed to open his eyes as he found a plethora of plants and different bugs that seemed to live in every inch of this forest.
A cloud of butterflies flew above Arvion and before he knew it he was in a flurry of colors that were passing by. Many red and blues and greens and purples. It was a sight that was a stark contrast to the deathly blackness of the previous void he was in for what felt like forever.
' These things.... may be dangerous. I should be careful until I figure out exactly what I can do with my new skills. '
'I wonder if saying status works like in all those novels?' Arvion thought to himself as a blue status filled his vision.

'Where are my stats?' Arvion thought as he saw a lack of anything that defined his skills as he saw in almost any novel. Though they were fuzzy he felt like he remembered that these things existed in his life before his death though he couldn't pinpoint any specific details.

'Hmm.. I have 5 evolution points whatever those are. Are they like stat points? Put in one point to Lifeforce.' Arvion thought tentatively.

'So lifeforce is what increases my hitpoints. And I can guess that endurance improves my stamina then. '
'I better get out of the open before some scary predator comes and tracks me down and eats me.' Arvion thought before scrambling around the forest floor.
He found his speed was refreshing as he glided across the forest floor with ease almost as if his body was used to the speed and environment. After finding a small hole to hole up for the day in a tree he cozily settled in and began to allocate his Evolution points once more.
'Right now if I had to guess it would be highly likely for me to get one shot from about anything so I think health is the most important value right now.'
'Put the remaining 4 points into Lifeforce.'
As the system successfully allocated the points Arvion could feel a change fill his body as his muscles curled and grew more resistant than they were previously leaving Arvion with a refreshing and warm feeling coursing through his body. The comforting feeling slowly overwhelmed him and he felt himself nodding off to sleep in the middle of the warm tree.

Arvion awoke with a start as a system notification urged him awake.
'What the hell do you me-' Arvion was cut off mid-thought as a crunching noise grated his ears. The entire tree began to move as Arvion felt his body go into a limp state as he began to be thrown around the inside of the hollowed-out tree.
'What's going on?!'
The tree had begun to move forward as something had just grabbed it and proceeded to walk with it through the forest which seemed nearly impossible with these behemoths trees. The tree was being thrown around wildly as something seemed to be using it as a weapon.
After a quick impact against the ground, Arvion finally realized how bad of a situation he was.
"What the hell is using my new home as a mallet?! And why does it hurt so much!" Arvion squeaked out loud. After he spoke however the tree stopped moving for a second, almost as if registering his voice but quickly continued moving. Arvion peered out of the hole that led outside the tree and found himself staring at a gigantic beaver with bright blue fur. Arvion was about to question his sanity before the creature quickly moved its head towards him staring directly down at him.

A loud screech was let out before the thing accelerated its speed in which it was moving the tree and quickly Arvion lost his grip as the tree got swung around at an incredible speed.
Arvion awoke from the rounds of pain, the excruciating feeling of being battered into the ground by a giant taking its toll, and finally managed to gather up his strength to dash out of the hole of the tree. After finally finding himself free from that hell of prison he dashed with all his might through the forest floor.
A loud hissing noise could clearly be heard as the beaver attempted to slash down upon him with the large tree but Arvion just managed to dodge with his 10 dexterity.
The range was insane but if he could get behind a tree then he would manage to evade the beaver!
The beaver raised its tree once more in an attempt to crush Arvion but arvion swiftly dashed behind a tree managing to evade the attack.
After about an hour of playing cat and mouse with the beaver the beaver began to grow frustrated and tired, but so did Arvion.
'I can't keep doing this all day. He has to give up at some point...' Arvion thought to himself as he quickly turned his head to look where The Beaver would be at next but only found an empty field. He had unnoticingly walked into an open field!
'Curse this tall grass.'
Arvion quickly reoriented himself and looked around only to be confronted with a large log house that looked to be at least 20 feet tall.
A simple-looking human was chopping wood with a large scary metal ax. The human looked to be a young boy no older than 12. He was dressed in simple cloth clothing with a leather strap going from his waist across the opposite shoulder with a button-down shirt.
After looking at him in silence for a while Arvion let out a breath of relief.
'Humans at last.' Arvion thought to himself as he almost made a dash for the little boy before realizing once more that he was no longer a human-like before but instead a mouse.
'Well at least there is shelter... but I must be careful. In this form, they would rather kill me than let me set foot in their household.'
He slowly snuck across the perimeter before stopping after noticing something. There was something above his head in a small font.
"Wait there is a limit to how many skills I can have? What a rip-off." Arvion squeaked to himself before quieting down for a moment.
He continued forward for a few moments slowly making his way forward towards the house while looking for small holes in the foundation of the house.
After what felt like an hour he finally scouted a small house that led to the crawlspace underneath the house. After closing his eyes and resting for a moment he finally relaxed and decided to check out what other secrets the system could be hiding from him.
'System open up skills.'

A weary mind awakens in an unfamiliar body, lost, confused, scared, and very far from home. He doesn't know where he is, he isn't sure what he may become, and his stomach growls hungrily. But he knows one thing. He must feed and he isn't too bothered on how, only when. Through his struggles to survive trying to take his place in this world. It, the world will be forever changed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My first story here so let's do it! hopefully with flying colors. (This story is not about an insect that goes on an edgelord, death rampage, so those who came for that, know now what you are reading and stop rating down thx, still, some murder and mayhem is involved) Feel free to critique, I will be checking on reviews and comments every now and then to see what others think of my writing and how I might adjust it in the future. (although I'm also doing this for fun so don't get your knickers in a twist if things don't change to your liking). (Know that even if you comment/review that doesn't mean I will respond or that I will take your advice, after all, I too have my own preferences). A chapter tends to come out every fortnight, however sometimes it may be sooner or later, It depends on how lazy I'm feeling or how busy I am. Ps. A friend of mine drew the cover art, appreciate its homebrew goodness. PPs. serious readers may want to read the author's notes as well. PPPs. If you rate down please say why, I want info, not merely ratings that don't tell me anything, preferably in comments, so I can try to best satisfy my audience, or at the very least understand their reasons.

8 170The Love of a Lazy Potato with Cheats- MCU FanFic
An ordinary but lazy person, with a very ordinary life, dies due to someone else's squabbles. However, death is not the end. He is offered the chance to live again, in a world which he has seen only in the movies, as part of a mysterious entity's entertainment. After agreeing he is given 3 gifts with no proper explanation for them. Some of the explanation makes little to no sense and some of the explanation is even meant to mislead him. This is the life of a soul who explores his gifts and turns them into broken cheats, while unknowingly falling for the greatest weakness known to man, love! [This novel is MCU, not Marvel. There is a difference between both.]..............................................................................TO NOTE FROM AUTHOR- READ THE TAGS BELOW AND ABOVE!!! If you don't like any of the tags please don't read it. This is my first time writing fanfic. Remember the first 30 chapters are intricately linked. Somethings won't make sense unless you read the first 30 chapters and all the authors note. If you can't be bothered to do that and drops it before that then goodbye. I don't need you announcing that with a review or chapter comments. If you want to leave then leave, don't announce it like a child seeking attention. I don't give a damn if you leave. This novel is not for everyone. It is aimed at a select few audiences who likes the romance genre and small amounts of actions. So don't read it if you are expecting anything else. I don't need you to tell me which direction to take my MC and my novel for the plot and how to utilise my MC's powers. This is my novel so I decide what to do with my MC. You either suck it up or drop it! Also, I am not looking for readers who want to change my novel or my MC. You either read it and ignore the minute plot holes, things that make you uncomfortable and deal with the fact that there are some things here that you can't make sense of cuz this is a fictional world or drop it. I won't bother to respond to every single haters, logic spotters. But I do welcome grammar corrections. If you don't like who the MC is, again just drop the book. Don't come saying I don't like MC change him because I don't appreciate you enforcing your ideas into my novel. There will be heavy 18 plus sex scenes and violence so don't read this if you don't like those kinds of things. Not good with writing so don't expect perfect grammar or sensible sentence. I welcome grammar Nazi's to come forth and point out to me mistakes with the suggest edit functions. This story will have one of its main focus as Romance tag and his relationship with his love interest. Also, the plot won't be heavily changed from MCU, even though MC tries to change parts of it, so be cautioned if you like heavily changed plotline. This is a free novel. Any attempt to translate it without my permission and taking money for it from people will lead to me taking down this novel. If you want to translate this, you ask me permission and you do it for free. Otherwise, you are not allowed to translate my novel no matter which bigshot country you come from.

8 2635Children of the Sun
Abigaël Chase, an ordinary physicist with an ordinary life on Earth got transported to another world. A world of magic and war, a world where death was never very far. She unexpectedly survived for many years thanks to a hidden power she didn't think she had. The same power that many people, gods and demons alike, wanted to annihilate no matter the cost. Hunted and cornered, Abigaël bet everything on a daring move which nearly ended up in her death. Having acquired a new body, Abigaël must do everything in her power to return to Earth. For Earth was in danger and only herself held to key to its survival. WARNING : It will contain mature content. I checked LitRPG not because there will be game-elements (pop up screen from the "system", the god or something like that) but because of the world mechanic itself (there will be level up, quest/mission, guild, etc?).
