As i slowly regained consciousness i heard a familiar sob
"sob...please Ez don't die..sob...you promised">Lorelion
With a pained groan i responded
"Haaah my head...core...damn it my brain hurts">Eziol
Grief and happiness could be heard
"I'm so glad your alive i thought you were dead...sob...">Lorelion
"I'm fine if i had a normal brain id probably be in a coma,i think."
"What happend?">Lorelion said with a sob
"Information overload.A lot of information i guess i black out dude to it.Note to self make more micro test before doing a macro spell">Eziol
"What do you mean?">Eziol
"In layman terms:The spell i made was too strong for me to use so i blacked out.">Eziol
"So you realy are ok?">Lorelion
"I'll be fine i just need to adjust it a bit.It's supposed to be a location spell based on the bats sonar but damn does my head hurt.So any recommendations about its range?And how big am i?">Eziol
"I don't know much from magic and from what i learned from your memories you should be about 10 micrometers(um) long and about 4 wide with an oval shape">Lorelion
"So now i know how to modify the spell.Lets see......*mumbling*...about..that should do it!">Eziol
"What did you do?">Lorelion
"I set the range of the spell to 10000 um and put a command not to return empty pings. Basically it will only tell me only if it intercepted something">Eziol
"Good thing the spell is simple or you could have died">Lorelion
".....uuhm then it's better not to tell you my next plan or you will faint">Eziol
"Pleas tell me you aren't planing something stupid">Lorelion
"Stupid. No. Reckless and dangerous. Hell yeah.">Eziol
As he watched my preparations he started to worry and get very nervous
"No don't do that its dangerous......no don't twist it will beak.....don't you will hurt your self....">Lorelion

Somewhere underwater...
An Euglena was swimming left and right up and down and was feeling the sun on it's body. It used it's green bits to make food out of sunlight and minerals wich it absorbed from the water around itself. As it was enjoying itself peacfully it saw the light darken as the only thing it could use for navigation was it's eye which could only diferintiate btween light and dark. As light got dimmer it felt the vibrations in the water. Something was coming something small. After all if it could brag it would have said that it was the biggest fish in the pond .The euglena was massive even amongs it own kind it was so big that nothing tried to eat it. Well for an euglena,150um was humungus. Even though it was was so big the small object came straight at it it didnt understand why something so small whould come for it, something thats barely 30 times smaller than it. Yet it didn't stop it kept going faster than enything it ever felt. It's tiny instincts screamed danger but it was already too late. The tiny cell went pasted it. The euglena felt relief too soon as something it didn't notice ripped through its membrane leaving a large hole. If it could it would have cried out in pain, but alas it could not. The little cell arked around and came flying(swimming?) straight trough the hole. Feling it's iminent fate the euglena tried to wigle as the cell dug deepr and deepet towards it's centriole, the moment it reached it a strong presure was feld that shaked the euglena. Its centriole was destroyed and without it it couldn't keep it's shape let alone stugle. Now that the little cell was in it it could feel it. It was weird the moment it entered it felt it getting smaller and smaller not by much but enoughf for it to notice as it destroyed the centriole it slowly started to grow bit by bit, like it was feeding off of it (you dont say?). After that the cell pointed itself towards the Nucleus it created a bit of presure in front of itself and a small object was lauched from it. The moment it touched the Nucleus it exploded opening a hole in it. The odd cell released preasghure again thins time from behind and slowly shrunk while propeling foward, and it ate anything along the way, mainly alot of vacuols and ribosomes. As it dug into the heart of the Nucleus the euglena gelt it's smal spark of life slowly vanishing into the abyss

Preparation phase:
As i started my preparations i could feel the increasing worry of Lor well i cant blame him after all i am stripping my core for usefull materials. I used the only proteins that were not in use in oreder to make 3 vacuols 1 medium and 2 small. For the record i can manipulate evry part of my body freely, well sort of. I can control my core and all of its functions by will alone and evrything else i had to use my centrioles(plural) wich are usualy a conected to the centriol(singular) and are used to support the cell kinda like a skeleton but with stick. now the neat part is that the ones i use are atached to my core and the ones i'm not using for support i can use as tenticles neat right? I gues the aplaus goes to Lorelion for this one.Now after i made the vacuols i made some modifications on them first i made a tiny buble inside and shaped them like pointy ovals. I put the little bubble at the top and filled it with enzyme mix wich i took form my core. This enzymes are used to disolve the the high energy connections between the hydrogen atoms in Adenosine TriPhosphate or ATP for short. Now you might be wondering "Why the hell do you need 3 enzymes for just do it with one." Well my young paduwan ATP has 3 high energy hudrogen connections one enzyme for each the reason being that if all 3 were to be dissolved at the same time well....i thing you know waht hapends when a nuclear reactor goes critical. As for the rest of the main part of the vacuols i filled them with ATP now i have some missiles well i gues they clasify as rockets probably(rocket-ungided:missiles-guided thats my basis). With my weapons ready it was time to satisfy my need for speed as such i had to restructure my hole membrane in the end i made an ass of myself...litelarly. At my back or at least what i considered as such i folded my membrane inwards creating pocleck and reducing my overal size buy whole 2um and increasing my internal presure which was bad but i livable.Next i did the same with 8 other places for manucarbillity, 4 at the front and 4 at the back.Now i need propelant and i had the perfect thing ATP with enzimes yay for biology. But i had a problem i couldnt insert the ATP mix to the front 4 would be jets so i folded the front just like the back but only enought to touch the fron 4 bubbles, the ones on the bakc were touching the core. Now it was time to hunt. Though my size was now reduced to 7um and my internal presure was even higher that before my centrioles were strained the moment i was done with the modifications and filled all the jet bubles with enzimes and the front storige buble with ATP i used my back jet to suck water in and spew it under preshure for movement and wigleling around for changing directions. Though slow it was very cost eficiant at the moment any other cell would not be able to do it but i could fold my membrane thanks to two things my mind and my extreeemly flexible centrioles.As i was teaveling i used ping to find something to absorb and eat. As i pinged i found alot of life around me,how i survived until now was probaly due to it being mainly plantlife though i can't be sure, you know the whole im blind thing. So i set my course to the nearest and bigest known life form a humungous euglena, im pretty shure euglenas look like that. As i set course.

Plantal combaaaaat
As got within 500um i turned my pinger to passive, a new mode i made for combat the long range one gives too much info and i cant focus on anything else so i made it able to use short range constant version, and due to the blobs returning in the form of beams i lose very little mana though i don't know how to regenerate it i got plenty to spare for now. As i got within my range i opened my back bubble and filled it with cytoplasm currently i had too much and i can lose some weight both physically and off my centrioles as i release the pressure i shot forward faster than i thought and i was heading towards the back of the euglena. That's the place where the photo-receptors are and the tail connects so it would be a bad idea if i smack into it, in fact i don't think int is a good idea to smash at all. So i filled two of my jets with bit of ATP which released a lot of energy and shot the cytoplasm with a bang. I managed to change my course just enough to barely dodge as i got closer i prepared the smaller missile and released it like a bomber all i could feel was the pressure wave. As i prepared to do a tight maneuver i closed my maneuver jets a bit and used them to make a loop and point myself at it.Activating my main jet like the others i felt like a bullet and flew straight into the wound.Once inside i actively pinged around to find the centriole and headed straight for it,destroying it with my second small missile.Without even the slightest hesitation i pointed my tip towards the Nucleus and fired the big missile after it detonated i shot in a curved line taking any vacuoles and ribosomes on the way. As i entered the wounded Nucleus i began synthesizing enzymes to dissolve its defenses and proteins to repair myself. As i broke through i began to devour its DNA like a hungry Italian in a pasta restaurant.
-----------------------
Even though i complained i made 3 whole chapters with average of 9000 symbols in one go so rejoice and im sleepy so i will edit this tomorow if im not busy so save your complains for saturday

Embrace the Blade
Born crippled, it was no surprise when James Ransom died young, but he was offered an opportunity - a mission: to go to a new world and become strong enough to kill the hidden boss behind the final boss. Now in a new world he must research and study the system to take advantage of it, find his strengths; form alliances and find party members to become strong enough to face the end. This story does use Multiple perspectives and tells stories that add to the MC's. I've been given this feedback enough that I feel the need to mention that growth (levels, skills, classes, etc.) is slow, intentionally so, but constant. Credit for the cover goes to a commission for KemptBones from DeviantArt for the cover. This book is a rewrite of the original Embrace the Blade. The timeline for this one is completely separate and you do not need to read the original to understand what is going on.
