During this whole time, I couldn't really respond. But the voice felt ..nice it carried the certainty that death has while providing a soft beautiful voice to represent the calm. However when the system messages started again it felt like the gears of my life started again, I felt scolding heat. As something reconstructed me as a new vessel for my spirit, it felt… cramped, I'm not sure how to describe it better. The entirety of my body is smaller than what my spirit was used to, as well as sharing the space with other beings. I believe one of them to be the light I met that I bonded with, the other 2 I'm not entirely sure, the point being all this makes for a very cramped space.
I opened my eyes and was met with a vibrantly colored gigantic rainy jungle, there were plants of all types, none of which I recognized, though it might just have been because of the perspective as this jungle towered over me. Looking down at my body I immediately swore that I would get my revenge on that woman…
“I..I'M A GOBLIN!?”
After reminding myself that I don't know what else could be in the area I attempted to calm down. She took my wonderful totally melting hot sexy body, hehe got it? and made me into what seems to be a small, green goblin-like creature with long claws, I was fortunately still female as I really don’t want to learn… everything again. But still, I quickly took some leaves and made a makeshift skirt and top like grandma had taught me once when I was a little girl.
Having procured some clothing I took a deep breath, taking in all the smells around me, I caught a whiff of something that made my mouth water which made me realize I was incredibly hungry. I couldn’t stop myself and started running towards it even after a variety of colored notifications entered my vision. I thought about how annoying they all were and they quieted quickly. My new body carried some strong instincts, it appeared, as when I passed through some bushes I somehow reacted to what seemed to be a 6 legged armadillo with antlers that charged me with a massive body. I quickly moved to the side and swiped with what seemed to be claws, the claws somehow penetrated the beast's side and it started bleeding a greenish-red mixture.

SKILL ACQUIRED, Swipe
Similar racial ability discovered Scratch
Swipe and Scratch combined to create Claw, LVL 1
Claw, LVL 1
Using natural weapons and techniques the user Claws at the target creating a lingering wound.
Weak against high armor targets.
Damage increases with strength and level
Damage 8 ((3 + Strength)*Damage Multiplier)
I questioned the part where it said "weak" against high armor targets as this guy seemed to take quite a bit. Hopefully, I can use this to my advantage. It howled in pain as it turned around for another charge, I lost sight of it in the bushes, however, my body came with a top-of-the-line nose and I attempted to dodge to the right, as it charged out from some nearby bushes. Even with my enhanced reflexes and instincts it managed to penetrate my hand with one of the horns and started dragging me along with it. shit
A status appeared across the top of my visions
Lilith Hades'
HP: 4/30
Stamina: 15/20
Mana: 80/120
I had a little experience from my scape rune days and I understood that if I took one more hit like that I'd likely die. However, from how much this hurt, it did like a bitch, it's not like I really needed that telling me.
SKILL ACQUIRED, Ignore Pain
Ignore Pain, LVL 1
You’re able to ignore pain to an extent, making it easier to focus in combat
Pain tolerance increases with levels
Percentage pain ignored (2%)
Weird statuses aside, I needed to somehow get into a better position than this as the beast headed for a tree attempting to put me in front of it. So I put my head into gear and used my new skill and clawed out his eyes which made it start flailing and running wildly.
Claw, lvl 1 -> lvl 2
Damage increased to 10 ((5 +strength)*DamageMultiplier)
That was easy.
It wiggled me off and smashed into a tree knocking it unconscious. Standing over its unconscious body I wondered what the hell it was, as I wondered I got a new skill
SKILL ACQUIRED, Researcher
Researcher, LVL 1
Curiosity comes with its perks as you are able to simply look at a creature and determine a few of Its characteristics.
Ability to determine details of the target increases with levels
Ability to make hypotheses based on information increases with Intelligence
Wanting to check out this new skill I decided to use it on the weird armadillo creature
ShellCharger, LVL 14
This aggressive creature excels at charging its prey over and over, eventually reducing them to nothing but a carcass for it to consume. This is a youngling
Researcher, LVL 1 -> 2
Not exactly very useful as I could've realized that on my own but hopefully it would help, later on, the part of it being a youngling didn’t exactly make me confident, however. Not wanting to take the chance I decided that I would take its life, first of all, I didn’t really want it to wake up and come for round 2, second of all I really can’t afford to drool anymore looking at it...I say as my stomach rumbles and with a weird maniacal grin on my goblin face, realizing how I looked I took myself together, I think this body carries some a little too strong instincts at times, I’ll have to learn to control that so I don’t almost die being reckless like this again.

I used my new claw skill a few more times as it went from LVL 2 to 6 after 8 claw attacks, eventually, I got a new notification
ShellCharger Died XP (42)
Bonus experience granted for Level disparity (X4)
168 Experience granted to Lilith Hades
Lilith Hades class, Life Creator leveled up from 0 -> 10
New tree available
New perk available

Endurance increased by 10

Charisma increased by 0
Luck increased by 0
10 free stats given that can be put anywhere
I felt a surge of strength and toughness washing over me, my body felt leaner yet stronger, the wound from the ShellCharger disappeared in front of my eyes and suddenly it felt like a trivial thing. THIS IS AWESOME! Apart from being a goblin, I'm achieving feats no other human can hope to replicate!? Maybe this program thing could be pretty cool!
But first, I. Need. to. eat! My stomach couldn’t take it anymore and I dug in caveman style! I started where I had clawed away most of the flesh and ripped off pieces of flesh for consumption, a slightly bitter taste entered my mouth but at this point, anything tasted like a professionally prepared steak with garlic butter.
SKILL ACQUIRED, Feasting
Feasting, LVL 1
You can live on lower amounts of food, allowing you to savor meals and spend less to feed yourself
The amount of food needed lessens with skill level
That was pretty useful if I was going to live here for a while. I don’t know if I can take on that thing again, even if my stats just got higher.
It was getting darker it seemed so after a few bites just to give me some energy, I started on a shelter. Using some leaves and logs gathered around I created a small wooden hut
SKILL ACQUIRED, Architect
Architect, LVL 1
Using any material you are able to create structures that can serve a variety of different purposes
skill makes time for creation, amount of material and effort lessens with skill level
I’ve gotta admit for creating a small hut I don't feel like this good of a skill is deserved, even if it's the best goddamn hut I’ve ever made. I'm guessing it's because of the new skill, and the fact that I've never really attempted to make a wooden hut, I was never an outside person.
Taking some time to myself feeling safe with the ShellCharger body for me to snack on, I decided to check out the notifications. It seemed to respond to my thoughts and intentions so with a thought I suddenly had a grey floating screen in front of me. I normally liked doing more than reading even though I am a researcher but this seemed to be important so I calmed my impatient self and steeled my resolve, seemingly being a bit easier after the level up, but it could also be from this new skill.
SKILL ACQUIRED, Deep Breaths
Deep Breaths, LVL 5
By taking a moment to focus on inner calm even in harsh situations, you’re able to come back with a newfound vigour, ready for any task.
Regain bonus 10 HP, Stamina and Mana per minute while using skill
Ability to focus is increased by 10% after using skill
Bonus and ability to focus increases with skill level
Again using this new ability to its fullest I kept calm in my shelter and looked at my status ...but honestly, at some point, I just couldn’t comprehend it all, this is insane!
WELCOME TO PROGRAM ONE, PROGRAMMER
-QUALIFICATION. BE A PART OF THE PROGRAM 2-7

Recovery of a Life
The prince of a kingdom was erased from the world. His very existence an enigma. Follow Xopil as he forces his life into a world that refuses to acknowledge his presence. I tried to write a novel without including all the standard things you find in certain genres, or if it is included, I hope it's at least a fresh take on it, this includes me breaking the fourth wall, probably too much. I'm wondering if that helped with humor at all, and also reconsidering if that should be a part of the story. I'm going to be rewriting every chapter at this point... and that chapter I'm extremely disappointed with could likely be deleted if not redone entirely. Now that this story is marked 'completed', I'll be going through each chapter and fleshing out the story a bit, as I found it severely lacking, and I've been saying to myself "I could have done more with that." way more often than I should be. And that speaks to my own dissatisfaction with my writing. I make no warranty-express or implied-as to the quality of these chapters, or the story as a whole. Cover art by Roman Valeyev
