OptionsOption 1:Random Skill with highest available LegendaryOption 2:Random Item with highest available LegendaryOption 3:Random Title with highest available Legendary
This one is sort of a no brainer.
Option 2 we don't know whether it has a level requirement or if it'll grow with the player. So that's out
Option 3 is better but still not as good as titles have the possibility for a skill it's not definite and it could be a bad skill.
So Option 1 away
Are you sure you would like to select Option 1?YesNo

Jackpot! It is basically the blessing out of No Fatigue with a bonus to XP. I am surprised it isn't classed as Epic. Wait, if Orange is legendary does that not mean that Gold is Epic? So I have two Epic skills and a Legendary!?
Lucky! But my luck is only at 18 how am I getting this lucky? Is 18 luck actually really good for this point!?
Title GainedNaive
God I know we nearly fucked up the world and you want us to suffer and see the light but can you please leave my spirit be T^T.
OK. Next. Items woo. Except not so woo. All the items are crappy the only good thing I got was a couple more potions. So I picked up the Rusty Axe I had and went on my merry way to the apartment. Follow the bloody brick road! Follow the bloody brick road!
Though I doubt Connor is still alive and kicking as the door was broken down and he was out cold in a drink coma. Oh well good riddance.

Fourth Wall BrokenInitiating Repair...Repair Complete.
Since I was already basically at the complex when the Renewal started I jogged for a minute and was there. I bounced my way up the stairs. Just as I reached the first floor I hear screeching, metal and groaning. Not the most common combo.
I peer around the corner to see three darker shaded goblins eating a corpse and corpse walking around like corpses do you know?
I quickly inspected them.
Goblin ScoutLevel8Health120/120StatusN/AThe Goblin Scout is what it says it is. A scout. It is fast and is skilled at escaping.
Walking DeadLevel10Health150/150StatusN/AA human before the Renewal hit. Slow but hits hard.
So we got some Speedsters(gotta go fast) and some tortoises with some bite.
I crouch to stay out of the line of sight as I attempt a sneak attack.
Just as I get close a pop up message appears
*Ding*

Fuck. No sneaky sneaks for me. Ever.
As I was trying for a sneak attack I am pretty close to the Goblins.
They screech and howl after detecting me, and charge forward.
One was faster than the other two, it quickly aims it's dagger at my throat. Bad move shorty.

The Gob left itself open for a direct chop with my axe.
Fatal Hit
Level Up
As it collapses I grab it's dagger and fling it at the goblin who thought it'd be a good idea to jump attack me. Fucking numpty. As it connects the last one overtakes it and starts wildly swinging. I jump backwards and now both Gobs are upon me the un-frenzied one swings too close and gives me the chance to kick him into his buddy's wild swinging. With a quick slice there is only one left. After seeing what happened to it's friend the Gob goes even more berserk and begins to change.
Goblin Scout has evolved into a title monster in it's rage.
"Inspect!"
Short RoundTitled MonsterLevel12Health500/500StatusEnraged, FrenzyShort Round was a standard Goblin Scout until a rude and naive human killed it's friends causing it to evolve in it's rage.
"Hahahahaha" I just couldn't help it. Short Round!? What a fitting name for the now yellow midget. My laughter only causes Short Round to get even angrier. I quickly focus up. As it's in a frenzy there wasn't much thought behind it's hits. But it's speed and health wasn't to be messed with.
-42
Shit I can't take many of those!
As it gets cocky thinking it did sizable damage it goes for a lunge at me. Scwiiiick. One arm gone.
-188
That did more than a third of it's health. It's damage should also be reduced as it can't use both hands for it's weapon. It's also bleeding pretty badly, I could stall and let the bleed damage do the trick. But no let's let it go down in a blaze of glory.
The thing didn't even flinch from it's arm getting cut off because of the frenzy. As it charges and slices towards my dominant arm I let a kick out of it's abdomen and quickly hop back that creates a good distance between us. And just as soon as I jump back I throw my axe right at it's head.
Bullseye.
Fatal Hit
I quickly check the notifications I had pushed out of my view, pick up the loot I see and I run to the stairwell before I aggro some Walking Dead.

"What existed before the Big Bang?", "Why are 7/11 taquitos so good?", and "What lies at the boundaries of our universe?" are all questions that have forever haunted the best and greatest minds humanity could offer.

Looping, oh the fun! (Naruto)
Naruto and Sasuke are looping, and they're bored. They've already destroyed Konoha 15 times, taken over the world 15 times, gathered a harem 20 times and failed each time, joined ANBU 78 times, created their own villages over 30 times... What should they do now?For those of you who don't know what looping is, basically, it's time traveling done over and over and over again. Sometimes, it can also be dimension jumping (which appeared in my story). Something always triggers looping. Most of the time the trigger is death. If a character dies, he will wake up back in time. Do things, die again, and wake up back in the same time again. Or in some circumstances, wake up and find oneself in another dimension. See "Naruto Omake Files Innortal Style" for reference. Recommend Chapter 7 New Intros.
