《Doll of Death》Chapter 2
Advertisement
After checking my status I proceed to survey my surroundings. It's a cave. I knew that but what else can I say besides I can either go left or right having no idea which goes to where stronger monsters are. Something I noticed is that since I don't have eyes my vision is based on my magic core, which I could feel inside my body. It gives me a full 360° view all around me, making me very difficult to sneak attack.
Let's take the left path for now. I proceed to walk along the path making sure to pay attention to my surroundings and checking around any turns I have to make. After about 5 minutes of walking, I spotted something. It looks like a scorpion. Besides the fact that it's at least 1.5 meters, it looks like any normal scorpion. It hasn't spotted me even if it did turn around I could just lay on the ground and pretend to be a pile of rocks. Let's appraise it before making decisions.

Endurance: 10
Attack: 25

Skills:
Poison Sting (F+)
Weak. Can I even be poisoned? I'm made of rocks.
Lesser Demon Scorpion:
A weak insect monster found in deserts and caves only poses a threat to unprepared beginner adventurers due to its poison. Danger Rank: F+
I feel insulted that its rank is higher than mine despite how weak it is. Since it still hasn't moved much let's sneak up to it. I carefully move close to the scorpion and right when I'm in range I charge and do a body tackle. It connected and the scorpion tumbled a few meters.
Lesser Demon Scorpion
Level: 3
HP: 26/60

Dealt a little over half, considering I didn't go for a vital my attack would've done 20 damage but got a 70% increase for being a surprise attack dealing 34 damage. Before the scorpion gets up I run at it and smash its head.
Gained 38 experience points. Level Up! Reached Level 2!
It's dead. Since I got experience points it has to be dead. I leveled up too nice. A crystal came out of the scorpion's corpse.
Level 3 Lesser Demon Scorpion Magic Stone:
Magic Stone of a Lesser Demon Scorpion.
Magic Stone:
The source of life and magic of monsters dropped upon death. It can benefit other monsters.
I can do something with it? I use both rock hands to somehow grab and hold it. I can't tell what I can do with it, I'll just break it. It turns to dust with little effort.
Absorbed 50% of the core's magic.
I gained from it? Interesting I'll just crush all magic stones I get. Let's check my status.

No need to show skills since there's no change. Now what to do with this corpse. kicks corpse Since I don't need to eat and have no use for it, as well as it is too inconvenient to bring along I'll just leave it here. Some lucky monster is getting a free lunch.
...
Let's just use it as bait. I'll leave it here and wait over in the corner and pretend to be a pile of rocks.
A few hours have passed since then, what happened you ask well it's simple I've killed 3 more monsters. A goblin, another scorpion, and a bat. I gained 75 experience and am level 3. These were the goblin and bat statuses.

The Shape of Home
The world of Alvelotyl is one of fantasy, one filled with many races, an expansive magic system exploring themes of identity, some LitRPG elements, moral ambiguity and no small amount of magical inventions similar to those in our world. Dragons with blogs showing off their hoards of treasure live alongside [Hunters] chasing Giant Toads, or [Bandits] using rifles charged with Fire Magic. The Shape of Home is a story within this world, and follows the exploits of Yuri Scalesmith, a budding Lizardfolk adventurer from a small country town with a knack for inventing, and how her life drastically changes after she’s taken from home forever following a single catastrophic event. After being taken from her previously normal life, Yuri is thrust into a world of sprawling streets, magically mutated monsters, and a crime war for territory stretching across an entire city. The Shape of Home normally updates every Tuesday and Saturday at 6PM GMT, but I'm trying out different upload times to see how people react and attract others in differing timezones. There will be two week long breaks after each story arc's Interlude. This story is also a participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!

Empress of Blue Flower Mountain
Once upon a time, there lived two great and mighty spirits on the mountain. One loved humans, the other hated them. When their differences could not be reconciled, they came to blows, and the human loving spirit was chased out. The banished spirit wandered the world. Rather than an exile, the spirit viewed her situation as an extended vacation. She saw all the sights and people she'd only ever heard about on the mountain. But it was a little lonely. No one could see her or hear her. She was a rootless spirit with no place to call home. And then, one day, she found a friend. When anger and jealousy take everything, only love can create something new. This is the story of perseverance, sacrifice, and forgiveness.
