《Rise Of The Swarm》Chapter 6 Demonic Aura
Advertisement
After talking to Kayla for a few minutes which brought back old memories especially with how strict she sounded, I began to make my way out of the cave as there was nothing to do here except look at magic crystals which was not the best way to pass the time especially if I wanted to learn how to survive.
However before I did that I made my way to the corpses, and stood in front of them before I hesitantly asked with a face of disgust.
'Must I really do this?'
"Yes, if you want to survive." Kayla said as if I had an opinion.
Which I obviously did not, as I gave an audible gulp and steeled myself before I started to slowly eat my torturer, which at first made me want to vomit but I gradually started to take a liking to the beast as I began to eat more rapidly seeming like a wild animal that has not been feed for days.
Well that was before I saw several notifications in front of me.
[*Ding* Congratulations you have gained 750 bio energy by eating a Demonic rabbit, which will be converted into biopoints as host does not have a hatchery.]
This notification made me very excited as I finally knew how to earn money but If I got excited over this notification the next one made me start dancing like Scrooge.
[*Ding* Congratulations you have acquired the DNA strand of a Demonic rabbit.]
[*Ding* Would you like to sell this DNA strand for 2000 Biopoints? [YES] or [NO]]
'Yes.' I said with out any hesitation as me coming from capitalistic society knew the value of money.
[Confirming transaction...]
[Confirmed]
[ *Ding* Congratulations have gained 2000 BP.]
And just like an office worker who just got paid I went back to work eating the rest the rabbit, which made me want more as I stared at the other slightly bigger rabbit while trying to taste the aroma in the air with my tongue, and with nothing to stop me I completely ravaged the rabbit.

[*Ding* Congratulations you have gained 1000 bio energy by eating an Alpha Demonic rabbit, which will be converted into biopoints as host does not have a hatchery.]
[*Ding* Congratulations you have acquired the DNA strand of an Alpha Demonic rabbit.]
[*Ding* Would you like to sell this DNA strand for 2500 Biopoints? [YES] or [NO]]
As I took my last bite and just like clock-work another string of notifications showed up however they were different as they offered more money which made me over the moon but before I could even accept, Kayla advised me to keep it.
'But why?' I asked in a slightly grumpy tone. (A/N: Like a proper Scrooge 😌)
"DNA strands are very important as you can steal abilities of the animal that you got them from." Kayla said which made me realize my mistake as DNA strands where important especially to the Zerg race which was basically a blueprint a larvae needed to follow if it wanted to evolve, but this was the first time I ever heard an ability being stolen without evolution involved.
"That is because of the system's assistance and mine, so you can say thank you if you want."Kayla said seeming a little smugg.
'No.'
" What did you say?" Kayle asked coldly
' Ah, nothing.' I quickly said as I felt a shiver down my spine
" Good answer." She said with a satisfied tone as I sighed a sigh of relief clearly dodging a bullet.
'No' I said.
[Confirmed.]
[*Ding* Would you like steal the abilities of this DNA [YES] or [NO]]
'Yes.' I said but moments later my mind became blank as my body tensed up as I felt like my mind and body were changing becoming more bloodthirsty as I could only see red however this only lasted for a few minutes before everything went back to normal as I felt a bit stronger and lighter too.

[*Ding* Congratulations you have gained a new skill .]

]
I was not confused by it being listed as an innate ability as Kayla already explained to me that they were basically abilities that you gained since birth usually through your bloodline or something else but what I was confused by was it name, as Demons were basically only myths back on Earth created to scare people, but I finally understood when I read its description.
[ Lesser Demonic Aura - an aura that gives off an uneasy feeling at first but as time goes by it begins to create an irrational fear which in turn creates a pseudo demonic aura]

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!

No Absolution, An Antagonist LitRPG
Colin is bored out of his skull and has been getting more and more restless of late, and his wife, McKenna, has noticed. To help, she decided to get him one of the most sought after devices on the planet, A headset for the Ineffable Gaming System and its revolutionary game Rosengard Worldwide. The most advanced virtual reality video game and the only one with a near-perfect total immersion system, McKenna hoped that the activity in the game could help him overcome his boredom for the foreseeable future. On his first day in the game, he's betrayed for loot, killed, and even made to suffer. Unknown to these players, Colin (DevilWalker in-game) was an Assassin for hire that takes loyalty and betrayal seriously. It was never just about business, and this was not just another aspect of the game for him. This game was a gift from his wife, and he wasn't just going to stop. Now these players and anyone who harbors them are on his list. There will be no compromise, no remorse, and No Absolution to any who betrays Colin Drummond, The DevilWalker. * * * * * * * * * * This story is a LitRPG Action/Adventure story that will feature levels, skills, abilities, monsters, douchebag players, exciting and cool equipment with so much more. I have so much planned for this that it should be fun and entertaining for readers who enjoy the LitRPG genre as much as I do. Please join me as I recount the tale of a man who becomes a legend — both in-game and out of it. I plan to attempt a weekly update schedule. Upload Sunday evening(for me). Warning! This story will involve some amount of cussing to help add some realism and some insinuated sex that will fade to black the moment the fun begins. I am hoping to mostly keep this Rated PG-13 with maybe a few Chapters going rated-R due to language.
