《Celestial Beings: Evolution》Stage 1: Fight Fight! I (Chapter 4)
Advertisement
I was panicking, I hadn't allocated any of my Stat Points since Aly rushed towards a large Bang, and honestly, I have no idea what it was. It was most likely a result of a fight, although, who could produce a Bang, like an explosion - magic? If it's magic, I'm beyond jealous.
Aly was a few steps ahead by now, she's either a Battle Junkie or... well she's most likely a Battle Junkie.
We were here, and the findings were... strange. There was a group of maybe 8 lesser beings, whom ranged from Green - Red.
bang
This time I saw the bang in person. As did Aly. We made a mistake. Two of the Greens used magic. Both fire. Shit a brick.
I tugged on Aly, but she didn't want to move, she didn't even move forward or backwards, she's frozen. I didn't want to leave Aly, we can't join this fight so we had to run. We had no option. I used [Search] on both the Green people.
[Leo] - Lesser Being: Level 8.
[Io] - Lesser Being: Level 9.
danger
All I could think of was danger. On the bright side, my [Search] skill could now mention species which is great.
What do I do, I dragged Eloxus with me and now we both are in serious danger. We're done for. I don't know what to do, I can't move. My body and mind won't cooperate with eachother. I don't want this to be the end.
[Celestial Aurora is interested in your actions]
Aurora? Celestials? Nows the not the time! We're both going to die if we don't do anything. What good is it if we die here? Someone help us. I'm sorry Eloxus this is all my fault. I assumed someone was on the verge of death so it would be free experience.

Does she not understand that I'm only Red? I haven't done anything by myself, I've only been here for a couple of days and done nothing by myself.
I looked up - nothing. The bright yellow shone down, piercing my eyes.
After the two Green Magicians killed the six Lesser Beings alone, they changed their targets onto Eloxus and Aly. They both started chanting their magic.

ᚠᛁᚱᛖᛒᚨᛚᛚ
The flames were both targetting Aly, as they assumed she was the weakest. Eloxus was able to grab her and move her out of the way. Both the Green guys were startled, instead they ran up to them both.
Aly finally moved, although she didn't run away, she ran to them both, Eloxus had no chance but to follow.
Although Aly was in a daze, she thought on the spot and assumed they both invested into Wisdom, that's why they were able to get magic so quickly, unlike Aly. Aly almost invested all of her points into Agility, and a few in Wisdom, here were the results.
[Aly] Level Three
[Species] Lesser Being
[Class] None
[Instrument] Aurora is intrigued.
[Unspent Points] 0
[Agility] 11
[Endurance] 1
[Strength] 1
[Vitality] 1
[Wisdom] 6
[General Skills]
[Limitless Communication] Beginner - Level Zero
[Search] Beginner - Level Two
[Species Skills] None
[Class Skills] None
Although Aly was scared, which was evident on her face; she also had a spur of confidence, and she didn't know where from.
I was starstruck, where did Aly get this speed from? Was she only investing in speed? This had to be the case, anyways I need to focus. This combat seems serious in comparison to our fights against [Sand Worms], they were barely even able to hit us, we only became tired due to the fact that we had to exert quite a bit force since they had pretty tough skin.

Aly intercepted first, however, this wasn't a 2v2 anymore, it was a duel. Aly quickly hit him from the side, but no reaction, nothing, he didn't even budge. Alys reaction was all over her face, it was completley unexpected despite only having 1 Stat Point being invested in Strength. Although Aly could dodge if she was paying attention, but it was hard due to only investing in Agility, her Endurance wasn't there. Many people assumed Endurance would make the skin tougher, but they were wrong. It was also a Stamina stat but neither Eloxus or Aly knew that.
Aly's breath was going wild, she kept moving, never stopping, she didn't know why her body was deteriorating this fast, she only knew that it was happening.
The other fight was also taking place. Eloxus was actually holding up quite well despite the majority of his points going into Wisdom, he also assumed this was the case between these two, because why else would they be able to use Magic? He completely forgot about the potential of them two being Instruments, but luckily for him, they weren't.
Eloxus was hit. Through Eloxus's face twisted. It hurt like hell. He got back up, but could barely stand, he needed to use his Stat Points but he couldn't catch a break.
For once, he tried to use his head, what would happen if he ran to help Aly, and took him down, would we able to?
Eloxus thought this was his only chance, since there was no way he was able to kill them on his own. Eloxus was barely able to stand up, and Aly was completely flustered, she was on the defence. Although she sort of had the upperhand at the start of the battle, that was only because Aly was much faster in comparison, but that's all she had. She didn't have Strengh, Endurance or Vitality, and Wisdom right now proved to do nothing in this moment.
If anything, Eloxus and Aly was lucky the Green guys weren't that smart despite their Wisdom stat being high, if this was a range confrontation, they would have no other option other than to run.
If anything, it may have been better to run than fight with them, since this fight only lasted a few minutes and they were already on the verge of death.

Stranded in a foreign land, without even knowing the language, his creations may be the only company he would ever find. He wasn’t powerless. But was he really that much better off?

Outlook: The Stars (Consciousness Unbound Book 1)
The year is 2152. Rune Yahui is a nineteen-year-old failure, not having gained entrance to college or the military, with no significant prospects in life. Even worse, Rune is the poorest of the poor, hailing from the mega-slums of New Southern Chicago, the lowest pit of America. In a desperate last-ditch attempt to gain a future more lustrous than toiling the rest of his days away in abhorrent conditions in one of the near sweat-shop level factories that dot the megapolis, Rune signs up for the Virtual Citizen program, a program to cull the excessive world population by transferring just their brains into a video game. In a stroke of rare luck, Rune is admitted into the program and happily submits himself to the surgery and digitization process. Unfortunately for him, he wakes up several hundred years later than he expected... or does he? **Author's Note** This isn't a type of story typical to RRL. You may have noticed LitRPG in the tags, but it's a relatively minor element in the story until later. You may also notice Slice of Life is in the tags. This story is going to be slow and there won't be any power tripping until way later if at all. The focus will be on character development. That doesn't mean I won't still have action/excitement, however. I encourage you to give the story a try. Maybe it will be your thing, maybe it won't. Thanks for even taking the time to read this, and if you do give my fiction a try, I hope you enjoy it. If you don't, well, I hope you find something that you do enjoy. Happy reading!
