《Known Danger System 42》Chapter 4 - Easy Insights
Advertisement
As a chill ran down my spine. I again glanced around me at the bodies of my victims and come to a realization. I absolutely do not want what just happened to them to happen to me. Taking a seat on a fallen log I sit and start to ponder.
How am I going to get out of this place alive? What can I do to make sure I survive whatever other dangers lay in the place?
Glancing at the giant piles of leech body parts scattered all over the ground. I think about what I have seen so far.
A scary as blue balls looking giant rat thing and some type of weird mutant leech creatures. I reason that if I am going to make it out of this place I am going to need to be tough and sturdy at minimum and that it is probably guaranteed at some point that I am going to face something that is able to hit me back.
So I need to able to take a hit.
I make my decision and without hesitation I divest my newly acquired attribute points to be split with 15 into strength, 20 into constitution and 15 into endurance. Looking at my status page I notice with satisfaction that my health has more than doubled. Even better than that, the increase had caused my wounds to heal slightly faster and my health had already risen back to nearly its capacity. The wounds on my arms are almost completely closed and scabbed over.

Easy mode! Suddenly and with no warning I felt a pain like I could not describe. It was like my insides and skin where on fire! Like every cell in my body was igniting. I doubled over off the log and fell on the ground in agony. What the hell? I could do nothing but writhe on the ground in my torment. I had never felt anything like this before. I wondered fleetingly if this is what it would feel like to burn up in the atmosphere, fall into a volcano or get electrocuted to death.

After what seemed like an eternity, the pain finally started to fade. I slowly struggle back onto the log I had been sitting on before. What was that? I had no sure answers, but I figured it had to do with my sudden attribute increases. I did more than just double in strength and endurance. Looking at my arms they do seem like they are significantly larger and sturdier than before. I rested on my seat feeling pretty self-satisfied with the not so subtle transformation of my body.
Super Jax is in the house.
I try to reign in my enthusiasm. After all, I still have no idea where I am and what else might be lurking around. Looking back at the bits and pieces of the leech bodies I have to admit that I am kind of surprised that I gained so much experience and levels off them. They honestly where not that difficult to kill. At least with their attention elsewhere as it was. If they had all swarmed me en mass when they came out of the pond then I might of been fish food by now. Or leech food? Whatever. I won and they died. No sense in telling myself I should have died.
If I was to be honest to myself. Which I always do try to be. If I could get gains like these from killing opponents that where distracted. I would probably do it this way every time.
I think to myself, I should probably make it a goal to figure out a way to gain experience, levels and attribute points as safely as possible. After all, I have no one here to rely on but myself.

Essentia Animus
Second Book of the Soul - Celesi Veil Trilogy When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions. Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive. While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone. This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology. The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book. What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense. While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story. The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough. Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become. This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death. While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries. While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress. Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death. Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.
