《Re:BoredBlood》Chapter 3: The Gift
Advertisement
Hey, here's chapter 3, hope you like it :) kinda short sorry
dialogue:
-xxxxx- sword speaking telepathically
italic is Sin speaking telepathically
-------
-Sin, wake up…come on…waaaake up-
Muu, unless you have breastmilk be quiet.
-fufufu such a thirsty boy, sorry but I can’t. You need to wake up though-
Huh?...Uwaaa! who are you!? Other than the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in both lives! Like a goddess!
-Well you can say that I am a goddess, rather right now I’m a sword. I forgot to introduce myself. But maybe first I should change into a ring instead of humanoid because my breasts aren’t where my eyes are fufu-
*baby blush* Sorry about that. I’ll listen though, don’t worry.
-Anyways, my name is Nyx the Greek goddess of the night. Except I decided to inhabit the sword that brat Destiny made, because I was bored-
She’s immaculate and carries the aura of a big sister. Dressed in a black dress that sticks to her curves and every inch of her is perfect. With pale skin that contrasts well with her black dress and black hair, if I were to rate her on a scale 1-10 it would be impossible. Maybe instead of 11/10 it would be infinity/10. And the ‘heavenly’ mountains that stand tall makes me wish she could breastfee—okay I digress.
Wait so if you are the sword basically, doesn’t that mean this sword is too strong. Like it could cut the planet in two?
-No, if I unleash that much power the sword will shatter before you even swing. Plus I have made it just like you want so it grows with you. The sword can’t even handle 0.00000000001% of my power. After all, I was created right after the beginning of everything, so my power and knowledge vastly outstrip most gods. This is exactly why Zeus is scared of me hehehe, I’ve put him in time-out before. Did you know he gives his clothes special names? Like ThunderPants, or his RumbleRobes, oh and even his underwear the BlastBoxers!-

{Meanwhile in Olympus…..*ACHOOO!!!* “Damn, someone must be spouting something about me. I’m sure it’s some secret. Hmph, no worries, I have my lucky CrashCloak I just got done washing.”}
{Meanwhile on Earth…..News reporter: “Yes, it’s true, I’m standing here in Italy where there is the greatest thunderstorm in history! Many people are trying to get to safety right now and some are even yelling, blaming it on the gods. We can only hope that this passes soon! That’s all for Channel 10 news. Now back to you…”}

Nyx this world has magic right?
-Why do you want to learn? I’m willing to teach you. Not like anything else is going on-
Ah, that would be a lot of help, it sounds fun. Maybe there is something I can use to tame Lisa before she hugs me to death. Like a taser…
-fufu that should be interesting. But for now you cannot cast spells. You are too young, and your body could explode from the inside out. So for the next couple years you will be using meditation to help expand your mana pool. Also it will help you better manipulate the mana-
Then Nyx tells me how exactly to meditate and what to look for inside of me. However it is slightly different from what is supposed to happen. At least to normal people, that is.
Usually there would be a mana core in the chest with one color. Sometimes there are rare cases where there is two colors swirling around, meaning dual-element affinity.
My mana core is changing between 7 different affinities constantly. Earth, Fire, Water, Air, Light, Darkness. Apparently that means I have an affinity for all types. That is not the strangest part though, because in the mana core the Roman numeral I is floating in the center. When I ask Nyx what is going on she answers,

-Think of it as a gift from me, I wanted to see you crush your enemies instead of simply killing them, also it’s no fun if you’re an average joe. The numerals are for your evolutions for example: I, II, III, IV, V etc.-
How do I evolve? Go from drinking blood type O to blood type AB-? Go from slurping commoner’s blood to a queen’s blood? Oh, or bathe in blood rather than water mwahahaha!
-Okay enough, you have to have a blood orgy….Just kidding. Anyways to evolve you need me-
Sorry I don’t think biting a sword will help. Even if you’re in humanoid form…but I’ll try hehe.
-Let me explain better: later on when you are able to use me (that sounds wrong) then every time you kill a beast or person you will walk to their corpse, stab them and I, the sword, will drink the blood and channel it into you. It’s easier than bending over and biting them yourself and you also don’t get as strong as you would if you absorbed through sword. In a battle you might find a break where you can quickly draw blood out of a dead victim to get your strength back too-
Why do they have to be dead? Can’t I just absorb and attack at the same time?
-No, when the soul is still in the body, to absorb through the blade they have to be dead. Unless you want another soul inhabiting itself in here along with me-
Wait what? The sword can take the soul of my enemy and put it inside? It slurps from a body, hum, fitting for a vampire though. Come to think of it, what is the name of this thing?
-Yeah that is one of the abilities this sword has. Although I can tell you whether or not there is a soul still inside before you absorb, telepathically in an instant before you actually do absorb. That way we can circumvent such problems. By the way the sword’s name is Midnight Tempest. Its attacks do the most damage when using darkness and air affinity-
Okay so now that I have that answered I should go back and start absorbing the mana in the air and move the mana in my core to all my limbs…minus 1.
Well until my arch nemesis showed up.
“Kyaaaa! Little prince is so cute let me hold you and make sure you’ve been fed well!” [Lisa the Leech]
Guh- fed well?! You won’t be able to feed me anything if I can’t breathe! Her twin towers are going to crush my head!
hehehe not to worry, I already have a countermeasure set up.
*Chomp!*….*Sluuuuuurp!*
“Ahn…little prince don’t take too much….that’s enough…..zzzzzzz” [Defeated Lisa]
Huhuhu enemy vanquished, now time for a little more to finish the snack but keep alive, then back to sleep.

AUTHOR NOTE: So I'm probably going to make a side chapter that has the history and geography and such for this fiction. kind of like a chapter 4.5 or a chapter 5.5 know what I mean? Mainly because I want to get the setting of the story out of the way and focus more on plot/battles/romance.
AUTHOR NOTE 2: All of this above about souls is imaginative so if anyone is die-hard zealots/fans of souls and such, then just know it is randomness and not based on anything :D

In a future timeline, the earth was visited by a species known as the Slarkovs.
8 140It Started with Slime
Before we jump in, let me say that the MC starts stupid, so the language and writing style is straightforward to reflect this. The writing improves with the MC and as the chapters progress (I hope). It is also a gradual growth story, so no zero to hero in ten seconds... with that out of the way: An alchemical experiment has gone wrong and results in a Slime Monster. It doesn't have a name at first and is something that it will need to work out! This story follows a Slime that starts as a Micro Slime with some level of consciousness, and there is more to it than meets the eye. Survival is the name of the game. To improve, it works hard to grow, evolve and become more powerful to survive its harsh new reality. There is a lot more going, and only time will tell if this Slime (all its various versions) can become strong enough to make it through the strife to the other side. It's a harsh world, after all. It Started with Slime is a story with a Monster Protagonist Evolution story. There will be no profanity and no sexual content, and there will be some violence and fighting descriptions. I am a native English speaker, and so the English here should be to a good standard. That said, even though editing, there may be some corrections and typos, so if you see some, let me know! If it bothers you a lot, I am working to make sure all chapters have no typos, but of course, some might slip through. I will endeavour to correct any picked up, though! Also, I started this a few months ago and so any feedback is always appreciated, also reviews and ratings! If you like or don't like the story, let me know in the detailed reviews! That always helps me see what is good and what needs improving. Working on releasing chapters twice a week, I will try to increase that as time goes, but at the moment, that is what I can release. Patreon has more. If the story gets more popular, then I will increase the releases. I am aiming ultimately for a chapter a day if I can get to that. Chapters are roughly 1500 words, with Interludes every five chapters being more or less than that! Enjoy! Edit: Book 1 finished on Patreon, and the format for Book 2 is slightly different with Interludes every three chapters, and the release schedule will be three chapters a week. Cover by: Faren Discord: https://discord.gg/eDuZaEAAqG This story is published and available on Royalroad, Webnovel, ScribbleHub, Wattpad, and extra chapters on Patreon!
8 98Re: Now I'm a Demon, So What?
Description An Isekai-Oriented LitRPG lite, Game of Thrones type (HBO version) set in alternate-Italy during the Renaissance. Warning! This story contains strong sexual themes. Most of it is incidental sexy stuff as opposed to romantic. There is also some sexual violence and themes of revenge and trauma. Synopsis Moments after being born, the cambion began to grow at an alarming rate and everyone wanted to kill him. He knew there was much he had forgotten... he had a life before. He longed to remember it, but the memory eluded him. Truly, this was a fantasy world of might and magic, but it felt familiar somehow. At any rate, the first priority is to survive. And that meant finding something to eat... Re: Now I'm a Demon, So What? is a story about an outworlder main character, who (as of this moment) discovers he absorbs the powers and aspect of that which he consumes through his devour ability. There are a number of other interesting characters you get to meet as the political landscape is unveiled. Bonus! You are encouraged to post comments regarding what you would like to see show up in future chapters! I would like this fiction to be shaped in large part by reader input, so please don't be shy! Thanks for reading this and hope to get to know you through the comments! Oh, and be nice! What I'm posting here is basically a first draft. If anything important in the early chapters gets edited I'll let you know in the author comments. Your feedback definitely gets weighed to help make the work better.
8 132Death Lives
When the universe is destroyed the avatar of death is reborn.Once an all powerful being but limited in scope, Death now has a chance to learn and grow.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is my first novel, please be critical of it where it needs to be. I'm not sure if there will be romance in the future. It is unlikely for the MC but perhaps I will have meaningful relationships between side characters that will be worth adding the tag.The Mature tag is simply because there will be killing, descriptive scenes, and more. There will be no described rape at all in my story, anything of the like will be merely alluded to but not talked about in any matter if at all.Please enjoy and thank you.
