《Yet another ”reincarnated as a monster” story, however, this time, it’s a carnivorous plant》Chapter 4: Just Some Casual Talking
Advertisement
i slowly awoke from my dogmatic slumber, and immidetly noticed something different.
i could see.
well, not see as in having vision, but... the formally entirely black space which surrounded me was now tindet in a deep green. kind of like staring at a black wall wearing green glasses.
it felt and looked very strange, but it was refreshing compared to the white or black i experienced previously.
i tried to feel my body a bit.
my legs had grown longer and even more numerous, my neck had grown so long id escaped the earth, and i had a head. or, rather, two. at least, thats what it felt like.
Voice? are you there?
- Yes. -
may i see my status?
- I don’t know, CA-, yes, you may. -

oh? well well well, this is new... Venus’ Sprout, suddent leveling of abilities but i fail to remember how much, new resistance and two abilities, and.... ”The One Who Defeated Georgio”...
peculiar. very peculiar.
now...
what do i make of this? considering my nee species and my new abilities, im pretty sure its safe to bet that im now a sprout. like, a tiny plant. however, i dont know how tiny, nor do i know what i look like. bugger.
well, i think what we really want right now is the ability to see. like, with eyes. i kinda miss having vision.
i can kind of hear, but im pretty sure thats just my legs picking up vibrations and stuff from the ground. on that subject, isnt the ground shaking a bit too much?

...*THUMP*
no, im sure that was something.
uhm, sorry to depend on you so much, Voive, but... is there any way to regain my vision?
- It is possible, there is a way. -
oh, great! why didnt you say so? now speak, and teach me the ways of the optic!
- Sorry, direct assistance is progihited. -
direct... what?...
but, i...
h-, hey! you werent like this yesterday!
- In order to regain your vision, you must grow. That is all im allowed to tell you. -
allowed by whom?...
well, i... i guess thats better then nothing?...
yeah, it is.
well, since thats the case, i guess its time to use grow, eh?
- Unable to use Grow, insufficient E. -
oh
well then
better use absorb instead
- Unable to use Absorb as all nearby nutrients have already been absorbed. -
eh
eeeeeeeh
nono, that cant be.
no.
you cant just tell me theres a way to regain to vision and then tell me i cant!
thats bologna!
despite the words of the Voice, i attempt to use absorb anyways. after around five minutes, i realize she was correct. shoot.
in a desperate attempt to reach whatever nutrients may still be in the area, i use grow, whoch now works thanks to the slow rcovery of energy. thank god.
my legs grope about to the sides and travel in all directs. my neck also grows, but only slightly.
however, the interesting thing was when one of my legs touched something.
OH NO NOT ANOTHER WORM

Reincarnated Cat Becomes a Magical Beast
She is but a street cat who suddenly finds herself dying a sudden death. The next thing she knows is that she is in a new land where magic exists and she finds that she is no ordinary cat anymore. She has turned into a small kitten once more of silver colour, with green eyes that have a tint of red to them. She may sound like a normal kitten, but actually, she now has the power of magic, making her a Magical Beast in this world. She also finds that her intelligence has skyrocketed and her memories are as clear as day. In the future her name will spread as the partner to a grand Magician of the Wilderwolf family. But for now, follow her as she meets this Grand Magician at a young age and grow up together, forming an unbreakable bond along the way. Author's Note: This will be a long project, just fyi. It'll take several chapter just for our little main character to meet her future partner and there will be only a few big time skips to age the characters. I intend to have a lot of this story telling the story of how our duo grow up at a steady pace, so don't expect to see our main characters out saving the world any time soon. XD

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.

A Chimerical Hope
The dream we share is simple: no traitors, no masters, only bugs united. Lucidity is a dreamer's sacrifice to reality, and our sacrifice is the vesperbane. A vile transformation through bat blood and black nerve, the vespertine arts grant a mantis power and control beyond this world. Only vesperbanes can give our grand dreams breath — but all vesperbanes are shadowed by an incorrigible potential to instead become oppressors and defectors. Three nymphs will undergo this metamorphosis, yet each holds another dream in their hearts: a scholar who must learn the secrets of the mind to bring the dead back to life; a servant who must atone for lives taken and find a cause unquestionable; and a rebel who must kill an angel and avenge a destroyed home. In this world, the mightiest wield the power to crush cities or spawn monstrous armies — here, there's always someone above you, and it's a long, arduous climb higher. But true power is wielded by those with the cunning and the connections to direct the mighty. In every shadow a conspiracy dwells, and these nymphs already have killers hounding them, spiders weaving webs around them. Anyone can climb to the top, anyone can tangle in these conspiracies — but what would you sacrifice along the way?
