"Oooh!" That fight netted me three level ups! Wait why is my health full? Does it get refilled with each level up?
Correct
No reward for that one eh? Probably cause too many people figured out before me. But what happened to the injury on my chest?
It's gone! All praise Proficio Healing! Banzai!
Anyway, 25 unused stat points is pretty good. Alright, 'Add 15 to Agility and 10 to Dexterity'
I don't feel much different?
System are you cheating me?
-1 Wisdom
I am sorry oh wonderful system overlord.
Sarcasm aside so the system punishes back talk, quite the dictator there.
Now onto skills. 'Inspect skill Axe Mastery'
Axe MasteryA skill related to your proficiency with the AxePassiveLevel1 [12%]+15% damage while using an Axe
Minor correction on usage of Axe
That's pretty plain, but the minor correction will come in handy.
'Inspect Berserk'
BerserkA skill when activated makes you lose all reasoning for extra damageActiveLevel1 [0%]-90% to Wisdom and Intelligence
+60% to Strength, Agility and Dexterity
-20% to Fortification
That is pretty crippling for Warrior classes who don't have a lot of Int & Wis to begin with. Wis not so much for me.
Wait classes? Do they exist in the system?
Classes are unlocked from Level 10 onwards. Your class is decided from various factors including:TitlesStatsSkillsPersonality
Sweet classes! Personality? So if I'm cheerful I can't become an Assassin? That sucks.
Right. Upsie Daisy. Time to kill some Walkers. With that I can become level 10 and get my class.
The Walking Dead were even easier to kill than the Goblins especially with my 31 Agility. I made short work of them. I was now level 9 with 20% of the XP needed for the next level. I begin rooting through the apartments, I find a large hiking backpack which reminds me is there an inventory? 'Inventory'

InventorySpace Available: 30 Kilo's
So the Inventory is done by weight not slots. Bummer.
I throw preservable food into the inventory along with a pack of bottled water I found. Time for the next floor. My apartment is on the 3rd of 5 floors total. On the second floor I see two Goblin Scouts, 4 walkers, and two slightly thinner walkers.
'Inspect'
Running DeadLevel11Health80/80StatusN/AUnlike the Walking Dead these corpses are capable of running(duh). They don't hit as hard, but are faster.
So we have 8 enemies total. I would prefer to fight them in smaller groups. I take out a can of food from my inventory and crouch at the stair well. I quickly fling it towards the goblins. As they screech I'm glad the Zombies can't hear cause if they could I was screwed. Proving the Goblins were really retarded they ended up stumbling down the stairs in the anger for having food thrown at them. Now this is too easy. 1 chop. 2 chop.
Fatal Hit
Fatal Hit
The Runners and Walkers are too close to lure them so I guess I gotta bite the bullet, since I already know sneak attacks are worthless cause of my fucking aura. As one of the Gob scouts had a better axe than my current one I pick it up, while aiming my rusted one at a Runner.
*Ding*
Gained SkillAxe Throw
Pretty self explanatory, but the throw didn't kill the Runner. It did do sizable damage but now it was just pissed. It sprinted at me after alerting the other stiffs. Hayai! Before I knew it it was upon me flurrying hits on me.

Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! That thing took out more than a quarter of my health in 4 attacks! Fucking descriptions!
I can't keep up with it's speed I'm gonna have to use Berserk!

"[Berserk]!"
Once I shouted out the ability, everything seemed to become so simple. Blood, flesh, blades, murder, slaughter. All these things are just another necessity, another event on the road of life. All the while thinking this my body tore through the Walkers and runners while screaming for more slaughter. My body ran upstairs while leaking tremendous blood lust. On the third floor was the same as below, more corpses, more targets, more blood .
Before I knew it I had arrived before the stairs to the roof. Through the door I saw a monstrosity of flesh that put Frankensteins monster to shame, it had cracks in it's multicolored skin which oozed blood, it didn't seem bothered by it though. It's body oozed of slaughter and killing intent. My berserk self felt it's blood boiling. As it charged the monster finally took notice of my presence. It roared, angered at me for tainting it's presence, as if I was a lower being. My Berserk self had the bearing of a King like my title said, thus it couldn't tolerate being looked down upon as if it was a slap to it's face. It swung it's axe madly trying to remove the taint of it's pride while the Monster feeling the Aura swelled in size and blood flowed quicker and in vaster quantities through the cracks on it's body.
Thus it began, the axe with no thought behind it's direction swung as the thing was big enough to where aim didn't really matter.
The monster calmly took the hits, then casually swung it's fist down. The axe was raised to block the strike did little to stop it as it shattered under the force, which knocked my body into the wall. That was when my consciousness faded and Berserk properly took control.

"Ugh... *cough* *cough* *spurt*" What the fuck happened!? I pass out and I wake up sputtering blood!?
Blinking notifications flash across my view obnoxiously. I'll start with the oldest one I guess...
Level Up
Huh well that's probably from the stiffs I killed on my way here, no surprise there.
Class Selection has begunExamining Titles... Complete.Examining Stats... Complete.Examining Skills... Complete.Beginning analysis of Personality... Error.Because of Skill use Personality is in disarray.
Will make use of previous data on subjects personality and current personality.
Nani?
So obviously I reached Level 10 but does this mean they gave me a class based on my berserk self!?
I'm not gonna always be in berserk and to be perfectly honest I don't really have much blood lust.
I only kill because I need to. I hide behind a mask of cheerfulness like a fucking coward every day. Fuck! FUCK! FUCK! YOU THINK I WANT TO KILL!? YOU THINK I DIDN'T WANT TO GET MARRIED, HAVE KIDS, AND DIE OF A HEART ATTACK CAUSE OF MY BAD DIET!?
FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!

Isoptera
Reincarnated, Crete finds himself not in some overpowered human body with the basic kill the demon lord cliche. No, he is reincarnated as a weak, powerless, and quite frankly worthless existence. Maybe his was a mistake, as he wasn't even reincarnated as a human but instead a humble and meek existence, A termite. Follow Crete as he adventures, without the memories of his previous life intact, in this New World, Honera. He trudges on endlessly with his indomitable willpower and journeys as a meek termite who is fraught with trials and tribulations; as he seeks for the power to just live in peace and without the prejudice everyone seems to have against his kind. Upload Schedule: M-W-F Hey guys this is my first attempt at a novel, based on the type of fiction I enjoy, it'll be mostly slow-paced at the start as I try to work out the kinks and learn more about "Isopterans". However, if y'all enjoy it leave a few nice reviews, or if you don't, leave some constructive criticism. Both would be appreciated. I also would be setting up a Patreon if any are interested in donating to help fund the story or you can send a donation through PayPal directly. I want to create something that we as RRoaders can enjoy together. You can also access the Discord here [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

With a strange system projected into his mind, an Island called Devil's Nest and without a group to lose himself within—For the first time in his life, August is forced to step into the role of the decision-maker, and the stakes couldn't be higher.
