C3 Finding Civilization
While lying on the ground, Kyle rested for a few minutes to recover himself.
He took the corpse of the bird to bleed it out and collected some dried twigs to make a fire.
If you're wondering how the hell does he know how to make a fire, when clearly he's just a shut-in otaku, then don't bother cause he took hours before he made a fire.
"Mmmm, nice smell, even without seasonings and condiments the aroma smells so good, maybe its because of the quality of the bird." The aroma of the food was gushing out while he as cooking.
After finishing his meal, he was glad that he was right.
"The beast really has a better quality meat than the one on earth, just one bird, yet I can already feel my fatigue being recovered, I can even feel my vitality rising.
He didn't rushed on his journey and tried to practice some of Whitebeard's moves, like punching the space, scratching it, pulling etc.
"This is really great, just like the gura gura no mi in one piece. I hope I don't have its seawater weakness. Oh wait a minute... when I woke up, I fell in the lake, but I didn't drowned like a hammer."
Realizing this, he was glad and a smile could be seen in his adorable cute face.
"Mmmm, but it might have different effects if it was a real seawater, well, since there's no seawater here, might as well check it in the future.
After a few hours of practice, he was ready to go to find a human civilization.
Days passed by he and still hasn't seen any signs of a human village.
Weeks, months, and a year has passed since he came in this world.
After weeks passed....
He started meeting different kind of wild beasts, but strangely... All the beasts that he met was all in the bird species. He wondered why are there no land beasts out here.
"Is the area that I woke up, some special place"? Kyle asked himself, wondering if there's anything special on the lake.
But, since he didn't find anything special when he explored the place, he forgot about this thoughts and continued to move forward.
He was starting to get thirstier each day since his water supply had already run out, so he was forced to drink the blood of the fallen beasts that he encountered.

Thankfully...It wasn't dangerous for his body, in-fact, it made his body filled with energy and vitality.
After months in the forest... His mentality started to change and became different. He grew up and matured due to the constant battles of living in a kill or be killed environment.
He started gaining a little bit of muscles, and his body was improving.
His height reached up to 5 ft. tall, like a 13 year old kid.
He started honing his skills, he started by coating his fists with his power.
He tried using Whitebeard's powers like kaishin(seequake), kabutowari(helmet breaker) and the others, but he still cant use them, maybe due to the lack of practice, or his body was not yet strong enough.
Kyle knew that WB might be powerful, but he only became that strong because he had years of experience and practice, so he wasn't really worried when he cannot do his skills.
He knew that with time, he can became strong or even surpass WB, especially with his knowledge and with this unknown world where he is in.
-------------------------
In the deep forest, a 10- 13 years old kid could be seen fighting a wild bear, but it wasn't just any normal bear.
The difference with this bear to a normal one, was that this bear is as large as an elephant, its ferocious claws swipe downward to the kid, but the kid wasn't fazed by it.
He clenched himself and launched towards the bear, he brought his fist forward and a weird white sphere coated his fists.
The fist of the kid and the claw of the bear collided, and a large shockwave threw both of. them away.
The bear's claws had cracks on them and the kids mouth had a blood dripping from it.
This kid was Kyle, after traveling the forest for a year. He had finally seen a monster beast that wasn't a bird species.
But he got shook by the looks of the beast. He hadn't seen a bear as big as this all his life, so he got surprised for it and decided to retreat.
The bear noticed him fast and charged towards him immediately, before he could even tried to retreat, so the two was now battling in the middle of the forest.
"Whatthe hell? such a strong claw, I bet his body is even tougher." Kyle asked himself.

"Ahahaha! judging from the strength of this bear, I can already conclude that this really is a Xianxia world or a world with magic. There's no way a bear could get this huge and strong without using some energy or magic. I cant wait to see any civilizations or humans, and learn how to practice or cultivate this energy." Kyle laughed while thinking about his future prospects.
Kyle wasn't afraid of the bear, a year in the forest made his mentality matured and he was starting to change, just like those martial cultivators who hungers for the strong.
He dashed towards the bear and the it gave a loud roar, like it was trying to say "bring it on."
When the two sides got closer with each other, he brought his fist forward and likewise the bear, but this time, before they collided, he suddenly sidestepped and ducked below the bear's swinging arm.
His other fist clenched and he threw it to bear's swinging arm,with a boom! the bear got threw backwards with a missing arm. While blood was dripping from its former arm.
Kyle didn't stop there and dashed towards it again, surprising it, he punched again, but this time while saying Gekishin(Severe Earthquake) in a weird chuuni way.
A large crack appeared between his fist's and the bear, then the bear felt his body vibrate and his innards started to vibrate and disintegrate.
The bear died while its corpse falling on the ground, basking the ground with its blood, making the stench of the blood spread through the deep forest.
Kyle hurriedly took the bear's corpse before any beasts came due to the attraction of the blood stench. His body had now improved greatly, so the weight of the bear's corpse was nothing to him.
Dragging it faraway , Kyle knew that he needs to abandon the corpse soon due to its strong odor that can attract a lot of dangerous beasts within the forest, so he took his makeshift dagger, and cut through its fur and pelt, picking only the important parts of the bear, he was so disappointed about leaving the bears meat, because he knew that with the bear's vitality, compared to the past wild beasts he encountered, the taste of it will be much more delicious and healthier.
He also tried to look for some core or anything important inside of it, but unfortunately... The bear didn't posses one.
"Well, better safe than sorry, its not like I can't encounter another beasts later on." He comforted himself.
A few months passed...
Kyle hasn't fought any wild beasts comparable or stronger than that bear anymore.
This made him so depressed, but realizing that the beasts he encountered are getting weaker and weaker. He started getting some hope, because this means he's almost out of this forsaken forest.
A Couple of days later and he saw a bright light, he rushed to it, and saw something that made him glad.
A few hundred meters away from the entry of the forest, he saw a some makeshift walls made of wood and stones towering over 10 meters. Kyle rushed towards it and took a closer a look.
It looks shabby at first sight, but it still looks dependable and sturdy, he saw some guards above the walls holding some weapons, likewise, when the guards saw him, a child 10 years of age standing outside of the walls, they tensed up and at the same time got curious on why this is child alone outside of the gate. then one of the guards spoke.
"Hey kid, where did you come from? where are your parents?
" I'm sorry sir, but I don't know where they are, all I remember was that, when I woke up, I saw destruction and blood every where, body parts all over the place, I don't remember anything aside from that.
Kyle said with a scared and sad face, then he started to tear up and tried asking for help.
The guards kept on talking to each other. They believe the child's story since there's no reason why to doubt a 10 year old child and in this environment, clans or villages getting wiped out is a common occurrence, so they asked head guard for orders and when the head heard it, he believed it too.
So they opened their walls and said.
"Welcome to the village of Tang kid." A guard said in a comforting manner.

And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.

Shadowrun: Blake Island School of Magic
It's a high tech, low life. It's the Seattle Metroplex in 2074. It rises like a steel and concrete cancer out of the earth. Poverty is rampant, corruption is everywhere, crime is out of control, corporations basically control everything, the old United States is fractured, magic has come back and now it turns out that humanity has been joined by elves, dwarves, orks and trolls. The old world ended but the rent is still due. Life goes on. You'd be surprised what people can adapt to, especially if they don't have a choice. One of the places where life goes on is just west of Seattle. Surrounded by the waters of the Puget Sound is an island. On that island is the Blake Island School of Magic. A decade ago it was known for producing some of the most talented awakened in the world. That reputation was hijacked by the wealthy corporate elite who now park their teenage children there. And since it's a boarding school, their parents mostly forget about them. Three young people, who are certainly not wealthy or elite, are chosen this year to attend this school of magic in hopes of revitalizing their reputation for talent. One from the ash drifts of the Puyallup Barrens, one from the most densely populated slum hive in the world and one from prison. This is their story. -- This story is set in the Shadowrun universe. If you're not familiar with Shadowrun, it mostly tells the stories of deniable mercenaries called shadowrunners in a cyberpunk dystopia. Instead of telling another story solely about shadowrunners, this story will tell the tale of young people navigating a world that is indifferent to them at best and actively hostile at worst. Shadowrunners will be in the story and we'll see them operate, but they won't be its main focus. This story originally began in 2017 as a passion project and continues to this day on the Somethingawful.com forums. The unedited version is over a million words strong. There are currently seven books in this series and I am currently in the process of editing them. If you read this story then you won't lack for content. -- The Topps Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
