《Unleash the beast》Chapter 5: A bad situation
Advertisement
3rd Pov:
That day back on the realm known as earth, a certain video went viral across nations. It was a gameplay video set in the 'game' of Ragnarok online. It depicts a fearsome battle between a huge 2 metre tall wolf and an equally large ogre who was absolutely packed with muscle, unlike the usual ogres who were normally just ugly fat-asses.
The wolf looked like a rare iron wolf variant, but it's fur, claws and fangs had a more silver sheen to them. This caused a stir up because wolfs and ogres never fought, let alone rare variants.
People watched with bated breath as the scene started with a noble looking wolf sitting amongst bloodied corpses. Then a large green ogre roaring and sprinting towards the wolf, rage evident on his ugly face.
Then they watch with excitement as they fought with expertly timed slow motion scenes made by the unknown producer of the video.
Then the viewers all cheered when the wolf emerged triumphant, leaping into the air and eating the ogres heart.
Then they felt sadness and respect for the dying ogre who remained a good sport despite losing.
That day a legend became known inside the game Ragnarok online, it's name was the...
'Silver wolf'....
3rd Pov: Astral plane
Thanatos: "Hey Loki, I just thought about something, what if the humans create a new 'game' and they lose interest in their current one?"
Loki: "don't worry Thanatos my brother, I have already taken care of that."
Thanatos: "do elaborate brother."
Loki: "I tampered with the earth realm and their mechanics so that they may never create another 'virtual reality game' until I allow them."
Unknown: "very good Loki, I'd imagine that they're all banging they're heads against a wall in frustration right now."
Loki: "thank you for the praise, almighty lord Oden."
Thanatos: "fucking kiss ass"
Loki: "HEY"
1st Pov: Fenrir
I groggily opened my eyes with a loud wolfish yawn, and then remembered my dire situation. So I sat up fast.
*BANG*
Owwwww, it seems I hit my head on something hard. I look up and see thick long metal bars, it seemed that they glowed a soft blue.
'Oh fuck no' I thought to myself.
"Haha! Did to use that, the dumb mutt hit his head on the bars! Hahaha!"
"Calm down ShiningMetal, we are in the Dark bear forest after all."

I look to the source of the sound and I see 3 people sitting around a campfire looking at me, they are staring pretty hard too.
'What do I have something on my face?' I thought bitterly.
Of the 3 people sitting around the campfire one them was the woman I saw, she had long dark blue hair and a well proportioned body. She was quite the beauty. Her blue name tag read:
[BlueBeauty lvl 15] A bit full of yourself there.
Too bad I plan on tearing her pretty head off her pretty body.
Of the two men sitting beside her once was wearing an extra shiny set of full body armour, apart from a helmet for his good looking face. What the fuck? If your wearing armour that expensive you might as well wear a helmet too, you narcissistic turd. His blue name tag read:
[SwordxMasterz lvl 15] wow, what are you like 12 years old, what's with the x's?
The other man was without a doubt the one that frightened me the most, he was wearing leather armour made from various pelts. Some of them were wolves, I could tell with my sense of smell. Luckily none of them belonged to my family. Above his head was a blue name tag it read:
[ShiningMetal lvl 16]
But my situation was not looking good, they were all at least 1 lvl above me and there were 3 of them, looks like I'll have to bide my time before I can escape.
*1 day later
None of them have even logged out once during this whole time, I guess that the announcement that in Ragnarok online time will go by 4x slower compared to the real world was true, there was a lot of arguing about that.
So far, all that they've been talking about was what to do after this, and about how many fur coats they think I could be turned into.
This conversation sent shivers up my spine.
Although they say that they're heading out of the forest and into a nearby town, I realised a few hours ago that we were in fact going deeper and deeper into the forest.
This made me really nervous because I had discovered something during my time living here, the monsters get stronger and more dangerous the further in you go.
And one thing I noticed was that we were being hunted.

Our hunters smelt strong, and I they were so close now I could hear they're footsteps. And by the sound of it they were large creatures, and in this world, large almost always means dangerous.
They sounded just over 150m away, I was getting more and more nervous.
*1 Hour later
The dumb players were just trudging along, totally oblivious to their surroundings. I guess they thought they were going in the right direction.
I was sitting in a cage that was too small for me, so I had to curl up into a ball to fit. I was being dragged around in a small wagon which was being pulled by the two men, while the lady sat in the front of the carriage.
I guess that they've already established a hierarchy, good for them.
"Let's settle here for the night"
""Yes mam""
Oh god no. They didn't, oh shit they did.
They actually decided to settle here while our hunters were closing in on us and would arrive in minutes. I desperately started barking and howling, trying to tell them to get me the fuck outta here.
"Woof, woof, AROOOOOOOOOOW"
"Shut up you mutt"
Oh no he didn't, nobody calls me a mutt. I growl at him which he ignores, then I notice something scary.
Everything just went quiet, every single sound in the forest, the birds chirping, occasional growling and trees rustling all stopped. And the even more scary part...
Was that so did the smell and sound of our hunters. I froze, my instinct was telling me that we were in a very bad situation. A very bad one indeed.
Then I looked in front of me and saw a huge black stone right behind where Mr Narcissistic was sitting, the Rock was huge. At least 4m tall.
'Strange, that rock wasn't there before.'
Then the rock opened its yellow eyes, stood at its full height and spread its huge black arms, and I saw the rock for what it really was.
It was a huge black monstrosity standing over 5m tall, with a barrel shaped torso rippling with Muscle. It stood on two long thick legs ending with terrifying claws, it's arms were almost as thick as tree trunks and had long dark sinister claws, it was also covered in thick black hair. And had a bears head, filled to the brim with sharp teeth.
Above its head read the name tag [Dark Were-bear lvl 22]
Were-bear: http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/12/126696/4094120-6063068485-Bear_.jpg
Then with one lightning quick swipe it cleaved the Knights body into thirds. When the other two players saw this, they didn't even have time to scream as several more were-bears jumped out of the darkness and tore them into little pieces, then one thundered over to my cage.
I pressed myself at the back of the cage at the last moment, dodging a swipe that would have taken my head off. As his claws hit the cage that I couldn't even scratch the cage burst into pieces.
I then tensed my stiff muscles and leaped out if the cage, dodging a downward swipe and the last moment. I then sprinted into whatever direction, as long as I could get as far away from the were-bears as possible.
The trees blurred past me as I sprinted away, at first the were-bears tried to chase me but gave up as I was much faster than them. Soon I reached an abandoned cave that looked like it could fit 5 were-bears it was so large!
I leaped in and checked my surroundings, good it was clear.
I then sat down and thought about my situation, I had let my guard down and been captured. Then I had been rescued by murderous were-bears.
And now I was stuck in the middle of their territory, I sniffed the air and knew that I was completely surrounded on all sides. This part of the forest was infested with were-bears and I was stuck in the middle.
If I tried to use my speed to escape I would be intercepted by a were-bear and cut into pieces, while I am faster their godly reflexes would overpower me.
While I was drowning myself in depression and self pity I heard a loud growl at the entrance to my cave,
"GRRRRRrrrrrrrr"
I looked up and the colour drained from my fur.
There, standing in the entrance to my one way cave was a were-bear.
I was trapped in this cave with a fucking were-bear. It was a David vs the Goliath situation.
And I didn't have any stones.....

8 97Balancing of the world
Just as humanity reached the height of its power, it fell again. Mana was introduced into a previously balanced world, sending everything present into chaos. Humanity losing its technological advantages, fell back to the dark ages, back to when survival was all but guaranteed. Mana though useful for enhancing the body isn’t unlimited, and humanity fell behind fast. From experiments, a being of mana, born into this chaotic world. The first of its kind. Rather than thriving in a world to which it belongs, it has to model the world so it will suit its needs. As a lone being, it has to use its power over mana to influence beasts and humans alike to abide by its will and further its goals. It will manipulate intelligent lifeforms to do its bidding while believing that they are becoming stronger. It will help lower lifeforms and guide their lives until they fit into the world as envisioned by our being. Read how our protagonist starts in a small area, changing it to suit its needs, and then grows until the world is balanced and at peace again. This is my first story, and I don’t have an editor yet. My English should be good enough, but I expect to have to go back and do editing later on. I would classify this story as litRPG. There will be a type of system with blue boxes and all, though the perspective is the system itself and how it came to be and why it does what it does. As a single mighty being, there will be dungeon core influences such as expanding the area and influencing all within though there is no such thing as an actual dungeon. As humanity is trying to survive, there will also be some city/base building influences, and I will have some perspective changes to show how the forces are being perceived by the affected people. As I have a busy job, it will be hard to update consistently, but I am quite a bit ahead of what I have currently uploaded.
8 164I will not be eaten
Litchi is your ordinary Royal Road addict. She can’t resist the call of a new chapter even when she needs to work. Because of too many new responsibilities she promises one week without reading. Sadly, she cracks in three days, because of an Azarinth Healer notification. Taking out her phone she starts avidly reading. It’s just a small promise, she will try it another time. Nothing should happen. Say that to the goblin that tries to eat your face, Litchi! You should keep your promise! She was used to food jokes on her name but it seems that this time her destiny is to be eaten. ---- Hello future reader! I didn’t find a new good isekai so why not create my own? I am an RR addict and amateur writer (in French) and today I decided to publish a story. You will have my eternal gratitude for any advice or constructive comments on the story! One of my objectives is to have developed characters, duo or trio make a fantastic way to character growth. So, I will try to create a deep relationship between a few of them. The first few chapters have a lot of combat, but other characters will soon arrive. Those first few chapters are made to build tension and create Litchi's first motivations. This story has the plot written to the end and important characters already shaped. This story is short in comparison to the majority of RR fantasy stories. Update every two days until I have no more chapters in my pocket. Average chapter length: 2200 words Warning: The grammar can be bad, IMPORTANT CHARACTERS CAN (Will) DIE, contain philosophical conversation as the characters stumble upon morals dilemmas. I hope I will see you soon in the comments and thank you in advance for reading Litchi’s journey. Have a nice day! :)
