Chapter 3 - The bloodfest
A nearby goblin shark spotted her within the vicinity, unable to contain its own hunger any further. It strives to devour her whole.
She immediately sensed the existence of the goblin shark that is steadily heading her way.
However, unlike a normal goblin shark. She is by far stronger and more intelligent than the ordinary aquatic fish.
By the time that the goblin shark has reached her location, she would have already taken action, by anticipating the goblin shark's movements. Always staying one step ahead of her opponent.
The goblin shark made a straight beeline towards her, like a shark torpedo, it cannot turn but go straight forwards.
As the goblin shark is drawing closer, during the last few minutes, she reacted by swimming out of the goblin shark's line of trajectory, and it missed her.
Whilst going around the starving goblin shark to its side, its own blind spot. Her extendable jawline extended revealing rows sharp jagged teeth.
She then activated her newly acquired skill Venom fangs, as her jagged teeth start to gain a purple tint, secreting out toxic venom.
20/130 MP
Since she doesn't actually have an actual functional poison gland within her body. To compensate for this, mana is expended, artificially generating a varied level of different components and substance which made the poison venom.
Her jagged razor-sharp teeths then sink into the pale skin and flesh of the starving goblin shark, injecting it with her newfound venom fangs.
The secreted venom is then injected into the starving goblin shark's flesh and muscles. Slowly, the poison then makes its way through the starving goblin shark's body and enters the bloodstream.
Within seconds, the toxic venom then coagulates and immediately blocks the constant flow of blood around its body. As well the harmful components that made up the venom, starts to attacks the red blood cells inside the starving goblin shark's body.

The starving goblin shark writhes in intense pain and agony, as it's inside and organs are being destroyed by her venom.
Its health points are quickly dropping into the red bars, right before her very eyes.
It did not give up, before violently ramming its body around on the bottom of the sea bed, sending out a flurry of sand, as a last-ditch effort to escape death.
However, she remained strong with her grip. With her jagged teeths sinking deeper into the starving goblin shark's flesh.
The liveness in its greyed eyes vanishes, with its pale skinny body becoming still and quiet.
She then rips a big chunk of flesh out from the dead carcass of the starving goblin shark she killed. The blood of the dead goblin shark then mixed with the ocean's seawater turning it red.
System Log You have killed a Goblin Shark! You've gained 250 experience points! System Log Your experience points have exceeded the designated point! You have levelled up! Plus 4 unallocated stats points and 5 skill points!
'Sweet! A level up!' She exclaimed in excitement.
'Status'
She says the keyword inside her head, immediately her status screen pops up. It then covers the vast majority If her vision.
'I need to hurry!' She exclaimed out in a panic.
Status Screen Name: Ruby Age: 1-week old Gender: Female Race: Red-Eyed Goblin Shark Job: Squire (pawn) Level: 2 Fame: 15 Title: Stats/Attributes Health points: 110/110 Mana points: 62/ 172 Fatigue points: 3 Status condition: Healthy Strength: (-) 8 (+) Wisdom: (-) 8 (+) Agility: (-) 7 (+) Intelligence: (-) 9 (+) Defense: (-) 4 (+) Charm: (-) 2 (+) Vitality: (-) 10 (+) Luck: (-) 3 (+) Unallocated stats points to distribute: 4 Unallocated skill points to distribute: 5
'Add all four unallocated points into strength!'
She hurriedly adds all four of her extra unallocated stats points, that she gained from her levelled up, all into her strength stats.

She then presses on the obvious green plus mark, located next to the stats attribute value. All four of her unallocated stats point are spent, as she instinctively felt the slight improvement made to her body with the stats increased.
'I felt a newfound strength growing within me...'
However, her thoughts were suddenly cut short, as a nearby group of goblin sharks spotted her.
One of the starving goblin sharks then rams into her, from the side. They tried tackling her, with their sort of pointy nose head, by ramming into her body.
The ramming attack does minuscule amounts of damage to her, but it sort of flips her body around onto her side, within waters.
This sort of behaviour actually disorientates sharks, as it sort of confuses their visual and magnetic senses.
This sort of feeling really wants to make you hurl up.
'Augh!'
The starving goblin shark's nose head slid across the side of her body, and then over her.
She reacted on instinct, and immediately swam forwards despite her confused state.
She dodges the starving goblin's bite attack after the ramming charge, otherwise, it would have bit into her side, and she would be powerless, just like her first victim.
It didn't take her long to recover from her disorientated state and flip her body around, right side up.
'Now you've gone and done it! Now I'm mad!' She said so having become slightly enraged.
Like a raging eyed bull, the redness with her eyes then intensifies, glowing much brighter. As she swam away and curved her body to turn left or right. She now faces the direction of the group of starving goblin sharks that attack her.
'Now you're dead!' She said so with fury and a strong intent to kill.
Whilst, the first goblin shark failed to deal a lethal attack on her. While it was distracted, with all of its attention focused on her.
The other goblin sharks then turned on against it, biting down on the one that failed the attack made against her.
It's a dog eat dog world out there. Only the strong survive and the weak die off.
The weak become food to feed the strong.

1984 had indeed come, however it was 100 years late. In 2084 a man named [Sovereign] had taken control of the entire globe and the destiny of Humanity itself was in his hands. Many called him evil, perhaps he was, but Sovereign believed that he was cultivating the future of humanity; he knew that if Humanity continued on its current trajectory it would not last. However his plans came to an abrupt end when he was tragically murdered by his closest confidante. For a time after that the world finally found peace as their evil overlord had been overthrown but as Sovereign had predicted the world indeed came to an end.

However this was not the end of the story for Sovereign, but a new beginning. Born again in a world of swords and sorcery he quietly evaluates the mettle of these new humans. Should they not come to meet his standards then 'Sovereign' would also be reborn.

Maitbudi
Fermboi was a man of one ideal: make the weak strong. When his rebellion against the king proved futile, he was given another chance at life. This time, he sought to do nothing after realizing the hopelessness of it all. Aventina wanted to do nothing more than to follow her father’s footsteps. On a retaliation raid against her tribe’s enemies, her brothers perished. Spared by a leader of her enemies, she returned home to find herself the chief of her tribe. Bolahulag, half-civilized and half-barbarian, half-lowborn and half-royal. Raised in his mother’s civilized tent in a sea of barbaric shelters, Bolahulag was hesitant to follow his paternal way of life. After a battle between a civilized king and his father, Bolahulag was sent as hostage to learn the economy and military of the nation his father defeated. Derai knew nothing more than being an orphan, but when a merchant took her in, the world she thought impossible soon became a reality. Monghe, stuck in a school exemplifying strength for most of his life, began to understand what he needed to do in order to be strong instead of weak. Story is mostly about nothing. Fermboi does most of the nothing. Aventina does most of the military things. Bolahulag does a balance of economy and military. Derai focuses on economy. Monghe spitfires what it means to be a typical hero. Hopefully this is enough to give a general idea to people who don’t like going blind aside from the work being purportedly “good.” Who am I kidding, my writing is terrible. I hope it improves though.
