I awoke hours later to a slew of blue screens all demanding my immediate attention. I half-heartedly dismissed them all before looking around myself.
The sun is well on its way across the sky. Considering it was early evening when I first saw the lizard, I must’ve been out for quite some time. I look down and realize I’m covered in gore. Dried blood has matted my feathers and practically glued me to the corpse of the monitor lizard. I’m honestly lucky no other predators or scavengers have come along. It seems these guys are the only things that could fit through the roots. In my current condition, I don’t think I could even fight off one of those beetles.
Don’t get me wrong, I feel the increases from levelling, and my body definitely doesn’t look half-dissolved any more, but I guess HP and SP aren’t a perfect representation because I feel like absolute shit right about now. According to my status my pools are full, sure, but I can barely move. My everything feels sore, and my if I didn’t know better I’d swear my bones were solid lead, not hollow …..calcium? Collagen? Whatever chicken bones are made of in a world with mimics and magic systems.
Speaking of the system, I get the feeling these evolution options aren’t the darwinian kind.

It’s a tough decision honestly. On the one hand, Adult rooster is probably going to give me the biggest immediate boost. If I’ve learned anything in the 24 hours I’ve been alive, its that I’m weak and I’m only surviving due to a basic ability to plan and a fuckton of luck. I need to get stronger and I need it now if I want any chance of surviving the next 24 hours. On the other hand, the Red Junglefowl probably won’t be as big in the short term since it’s still juvenile, but if I’m understanding it right, it’ll be a better investment over time.
But then theres the monster core. Definitely the most vague option, with little to no clear benefits in the short term, and uncertain benefits in the long term.
But its magic.
Who wouldn’t want magic?
Honestly it might be worth the extra risk, just for the possibility I get something cool. I could be a fire breathing chicken! Like a phoenix, but mightier obviously. Or maybe like a sun monk phoenix, since I’ve already put a bit in agility and obviously a rooster worships the sun, why else would we crow at dawn.
I remember when I was 11 always waiting, wishing I’d get that letter in the mail that tells me I’m actually special, and that I have magical abilities I couldn’t comprehend.

Sure this isn’t that, but it’s certainly the next best thing.
I’ll have to think about it.
In the meantime, I really need a bath and something to wash the acid taste out of my mouth. Time for another trip to the river.

Cinder Souls II
Dark Souls is known as one of the hardest game series to have ever existed and with the third installment of Dark Souls, being Dark Souls 3, the makers of the game decided to not make another. With the licensing of the game being put into limbo, a game company called Virtual World decided to buy the right to make another game in the series, this game was called Cinder Souls. Something was different about this game compared to the rest of the series and that was it is on the World Gear, a device that put your consciousness inside of the game and gave you complete control of your character's body. This game exploded and sold over 5 million copies in the first week since it had something other games didn't. Freedom. You could do 18+ actions, take over kingdoms, destroy guild bases entirely, and even rob NPCs. Of course there are laws in certain areas that prohibited certain actions but that all depended on what guild was in control of the land you are at. There are 4 continents with there being several countries dividing each continent into different sections and each having their own difficulties. The strongest continent of them all is Land of the Gods, which only the most legendary of players can enter and become apart of. It is a small island which only has 10 inhabitants but these 10 people could easily take over any other continent on the planet but decide to lay dormant on the island, waiting for something strong to spice up the game. Each of these 10 players is considered a God in the game and even have their own following base. Each God had major influence over the millions of other players in the game but that was all in the past. Now it is time for an update, a completely new world with new enemies and new beginnings for all and that update is coming soon. Its supposed to arrive in one day in fact. This update would have new quests and new adventures and the game title will be changed to Cinder Souls II, whether you kept your character or not is unknown but what was known was that the real world was excited for this. Since it was an update, you didn't have to repurchase the game so old players began to dust off their old copies and prepare for the copious amounts of fun in store for them. This story follows one of the best players to have ever graced the game, Frew, the God of Miracles, and his new adventures but it is not as expected. Not one of the 14 million players could expect what would be coming up next in Cinder Souls II nor would anyone be prepared for it. *****WARNING, IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE VIRTUAL REALITY ASPECT IT IS NEXT TO NONE EXISTANT EXCEPT FOR CHAPTERS IN THE FAR FUTURE***** For the original cover picture, check out this link! ----> https://www.pinterest.com/pin/420875527667199123
