Everything is ready for hunting. Huh? Why did I throw all of my point like that? Yeah, I am a mage so I should spam mental attributes, but in village I have met a brutal truth. I am weak. My magic is weak. Even as it has a great potential I doubt that I could run away if one of those Behemoth would cross my path. I can’t make a lake evaporate nor move mountains… yet! I am ambitious… but to reach all of that I have to grown stronger, to grown stronger I need to hunt and survive. And for now, for surviving and hunting I need my bow. And bow needs Dex and Ref. Easy? Easy.
I will train my magic between hunting… and while I would … ethem… grown my house… actually I hope that I could practice it even while all that nature shifting stuff. I need to meditate too if I want to grown cores… GUH! Too much to do!
But for now… I took a look at the hellhound. Yup, I did summon it. If you would imagine a hellhound to be wolf sized, muscular, terrifying, completely black dog… well, you would be right. But who cares? I missed my dog sooo much since I came here and now, thanks to this pal, maybe my heart would warm up a bit…
- Who is a good boy? Oh, tell meh, who’s a goodh boyh?! – even as he looked at me as at some kind of madman, then soon him grim expression brighten up and he let me to pet him, aww, that was exactly what I needed! You ever had a problem with girl? Who would cheer you up more than dog? Well… some friends would do too, but they are not so wonderful as dogs! We are unworthy of their company!
- Oh, tell me, who is the most terrifying creature of hell? Oh, who is the mightiest hunter in this forest… well actually that would be those behemots or gryphons… but then that would be you! Haha! Already showing a belly to scratch? What a spoiled brat you are? Tell me, do you wanna to kill something? – he almost jumped from his laying position. I have no idea how did he do it… - so tell me, can you smell something? Just not something extremely big, please? Foxes? Wolves? Deer? I am not sure if I can hunt dragon yet…
He walked in circle few times sniffing both in the air and near the ground. Then he took the trail. But he didn’t rush like some hounds from earth, he crouched near the ground, low on legs and began to slowly march deeper to the forest. That what I call a hunter. Always steady and calm. With you hunting should be easier. I would no longer waste time just to look for animals.
We were walking for 20 minutes. FAST! Normally I would need to first by occasion find some place. Then hide and wait for hours! Oh my wonderful doggie! Guess who will get a great chunk of meat even as he do not need to eat… oh, guess who?
I took an arrow from quiver, put in on string. Now.. slowly, no need to rush things… a lone deer was standing in the middle of forest eating something… wait… is it corpse? It’s eating a corpse?

Bloody Deer level 16Hp: 129/150Carnivorous type of monster.
This monster is both fast and strong. It uses to impale his enemy on his enormous horns.
Dodging may be not as effective on this monster because of its high Reflex and Dexterity
In what kind of shit I have stepped this time? Easy me. let’ just aim for now. If something would get wrong I still can send hellhound at him for distraction and run by myself. Yup it’s not nice of me, but I can re-summon him! As they die in this world they are just being sent back to their realm! And well , if I would get killed, then I would be dead. Once again. Breath slowly, pull the string, now take a deep breath and hold it… a viewfinder appeared again, much smaller than last time, reason of raising dex? It’s a good thing, my shoots will get more accurate now.
I start aiming at its head, the viewfinder was once again pulsating getting bigger and smaller. It depends on it how excited I am, of my heart beating rate and many more. It gets bigger, and now smaller, again bigger, and smaller… now prepare for, I hold my breath once again… bigger… and smaller… now…
The arrow flew through the forest with whizzing sound. Monster raise its head to look for its source and got hit in the neck
Critical hit
Fatal hit
Assassination attemptYou have hit vital spot of your unaware enemy.
The bleeding status was cast on targer
-114 hp
The deer roared in pain… it didn’t sound like deer I know… but it’s almost dead. Even as he would run now he should bleed to death. So, let’s spoil our little new friend now?
- Go get him! – hellhound as only waiting this whole time for this command rushed on weakened enemy. The deer raised from the ground and tried to run, but as hound caught up with it, he jumped at its leg and with powerful bite crushed its leg crippling it. As it could no longer run away, the hound run from its side and clung to its neck reaping it apart
Your familiar [Hellhound] has slain [Bloody Dear]You have obtained 15exp + 5exp
Umm… this +5 is for what? Predatory bonus? It said that I can level up faster in all kinds of forests and dungeons and whatever… kay’ whatever. I still have long way to go. From level 1 till 10 I needed 100 exp more and more for every level I gained to level up… now it’s 250. Looks like every 10 levels it gets harder and harder to become stronger. Well, killing a behemoth is getting more and more tempting… haha! Nice joke, I will thing about it again when I could turn into werewolf again! Well… even then I would think it twice, not cuz of monster, but because of me. When I changed, I was different, no I was not possessed or anything, it was more like all my most primal desires got stronger. I hate mindlessly torture animals. If you need to kill it, no matter of reason, do it fast.
Yet I was there enjoying reaping it bit by bit, shred by shred. This madness was me. twisted version of me, the one that want to show dominance, that want glory and fame, to make everyone bow to me from fear… I have to control it. Even as my race changed I am still human. You are not a human because you were born as one. It’s your emotions and your deeds what makes you a human. I refuse to get lost in madness. There need to be a way
Advertisement
~ actually, there is a way… while you absorb the parts of other creature, depending on what kind of monster it was, certain aspects of your minds, emotions and so on, would get empowered. You can say, that for a time of using its powers you gain it’s mentality. Buut…you can change a monster core… two of them to be accurate, and bind them with those emotions. Make one and anger, another compassion, one love while other would be hate. One would be honorable, why other tricky. You would need to eat both violent and peaceful monster for them to be balanced… and you would start hearing even more voices! Haha! It would be fun as I have no one to talk to… oh, be at ease, you could easily silence them… those would be your advisors, your most hidden parts. You would not get wiped off emotions, yet you would not lose to them. Create them! As time would call for it… every wolf needs a lamb… a yin needs yang… so… as you would have some time, go to some peaceful place, and create 4 monster cores. It will be easy to fill them. You would fill 2 with wolves – 1 with body, one with mind, same with bunny, lamb, rat… whatever. It will be more useful then you can even imagine. As they would be depending of your existence they would never fight you in order to gain body, they will not lie nor disobey. Actually you would split your personality… many of Chimeras like you did so… as they got somehow intelligent… it was simply useful, for as they were fighting they were not blinded by bloodlust. Consider it boy…
Okay, in future I will probably do it. What can go wrong? I am just listening to some voices in my head that took origin in evil book. See? …but better not to repeat it in public.
I pulled arrow back from deer’s body, wiped it of blood and put it back to quiver. How many times I will get lucky? Oh, I am speaking about arrows – they tend to get stuck inside the body… halting by fat, muscles and bones, and while pulling it back they break. I would need to go to the goblin’s village, gave them some stuff and ask for few spare arrows.
I took a corpse and drag it in direction of my soon-to-be-house. There was a nice place when I can “store” bodies through the day, and skin them at evening. Am I not afraid of animals and monster, that could smell the blood, and both eat them and kill me? This is why I have yet other Hex bag. If it would work in right way, it should deter animals from coming near place that it is putted. Well, I have no idea how strong it is thought… we will see. If it’s the last time we are talking, it means that it didn’t, and you should not try it at home… well, actually you shouldn’t try most of things I am doing right now at home.
Sebastian and Walter flew back to me, flapping wings furiously. They really wanted to show me something…
- Okay, easy boys, now, now.. show it to me. – I let them rest on my arms as they show me a memory through the memory-link.
It was a cave, well hidded, even as entrance was enormous, for it was covered in vines. Why were they so excited just because of some… UGHT! What a smell! It smelled like blood… and bodies… not fresh one. Haha… guess where would we come now. DEFINITELY NOT THERE! As I wanted to turn around and walk into completely different direction. Raves flew at my face pushing me back to direction I didn’t want to follow!
- Are you two nuts? I know, that you as the one who eat corpses really enjoy such stenches, but I would prefer to not step there! Not only because of smell! If there are bodies, the one that “collect” those bodies would be there too! And by smell I can tell – there is no but a one or two corpses! More like a whole village!
Nope, they didn’t stop! They actually get even more violent!
- Okay! I got it! I will check it! But if I will say that it’s dangerous then there would be no such force on heaven and hell that would stop me from running!
So we head there. Kaito was weaving his tail happily… yes this is how I called him, and yes, I will honorific him now as human too.
So, here I am, yes is smell as bad as in memories, now what do we…
You have found [Wolf King] natural dungeonThis dungeon contain 48 floors.Sudgested level to complete this Dungeon is 35+For being the 1st person to discover it all exp gained here will double.
No. no. no, no, no and no. Once again no. As simple as that. Not going there. Period. Yet those two are still forcing me to walk inside
- WHAT THE HELL IN LEVEL 35+ DON’T YOU GET? Last time I checked it I was just a little bit lower than 35!!! I will get here back! I promise! I know that 2x exp boost is broken, but I will DEFINETLY not put my life to risk just to get some exp! I will n… YOU FUCKERS!
Yes. I was dropped from cliff. Yes, just about meter or so from entrance was 3 meters tall cliff. I landed on my back. The shout was stopped in my throat as breath was denied from me.
You have entered [Wolf King] natural dungeon
Sweet. It’s so fucking dark here! I casted orb of fire. The fist sized, bright fire ball raised to the air illuminating surroundings. Fuck. Too late. What was seen will never be unseen. The dungeon was painted red… and it was not paint… HOW THE HELL CAN YOU COVER A GOD DAMNED CEILING 6 METERS ABOVE WITH BLOOD?! I hope I don’t have to finish it in order to get away! Well I can’t go back the same way for sure. If th… what was that? Kaito growled quietly at approaching monster… what the hell …
Shade Wolf Abomination level 19Hp: 92/110This monster used to be a Lone Shade Wolf, yet it was denied death.
Now with undead body and possessed by evil spirits it seek for a warm, fresh blood to feel how it was to be alive once again

This monster receive 25% less damage from death/dark attribute source
This monster receive 100% more damage from holly/light attribute

Well. Fuck. What to do… WHAT TO DO?! BE CALM! BE CALM DEAR ME!!
HOW CAN I BE FUCKING CALM YOU IDIOT! THERE IS AN UNDEAD DEVIL WOLF TWICE MY LEVEL FEELING NO PAIN! AND SO WHAT IT GETS MORE DAMAGE FROM FIRE! MY FIRE SUCKS! What to do? WHAT! TO! DO
Idiot me. same thing we always do! We will improvise. I putted arrow on string and pulled it. The tip of arrow was getting covered with fire magic, the explosive spell. As my fire level is too low, I can’t do it from autopilot mode and will need more time and focus
- So , gentlemens, can you buy me some time? – as I said it 2 ravens and 1 hellhound jumped on monster.
- The music is playing and guests are on floor, now, shall we dance, young lady?

Beneath No Sky: Chronicles of the Atmospheric Sector
After bringing themselves back from the brink of annihilation, humanity's future seemed bleak. However, it's remnants, throwing aside the old order and donning a new mantle of progress aimed to rise above their ancient disputes and go forward as one. Once the Earth reached it's natural limit, and colonies around Terra and Luna had shown promising results, humanity finally decided to make the move to the stars. Believing this to be the start of a new age, they eagerly poured across the solar system and further beyond, greeting what space had to offer with hope and optimism. It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope. They theorized that their problems were born of an inherent sense of home and, in order to rid humanity, now comprising of the Terrans as well as all the other known species of the galaxy, of this burden, decided to move far away from civilized space, into uncharted depths, to start anew. Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama. Multiple POV protagonists and lots of unnecessary detail. Somewhat psychological. My first work on this website.
