《"I woke up in...uh, am I a Murci ?!"》Chapter 19
Advertisement
Then, again, he puts water in his little hands and when he was about to put it in his mouth, he notices something strange in the blurred reflection of the turquoise water. He looks for a few seconds. He looks again to see if he can't see wrong. 《What is that black thing reflecting in the water?》 《Mmmmm...》 It has pink and a weird shape.》 《Could it be a mineral?》 The reflection of the water becomes clearer. A dark, eight-legged something with little pink dots can be seen in the reflection. Likewise, four pairs of red eyes glow in the reflection. "Oh...this is bad, Eliz." She sighs wearily. [Eliz] "What do you mean, Master." He looks for a few seconds towards the water. Receiving no response despite asking, She realizes what her master's words meant and unconsciously mentions.... "It's definitely bad, very bad, Master." "That thing is ugly, giant and scary." When he hears his guide's words he smiles vaguely. "I don't want to look up, I feel like if I do I'm screwed." 《That thing is still standing still and looking at me with all those eyes, I have to move fast from this place or I'm going to be literally screwed, to top it off, my position is pretty bad, really bad, I'm turned around and with my back to an enemy that can finish me off in the blink of an eye or so I think.》 The being is still and watching me.》 《That I know, I know because I can easily see it by the reflection in the water.》 》 While he kept thinking about how to get out of the situation he was in, this being remained still and without moving a hair. It watched the Murci' calmly and patiently. The Murci' maintained that if it moved from the place it would die. He came to this conclusion because he had not received any attack from the beast while it remained completely still. Eliz, the guide, kept thinking of ways to help her beloved Master, but no matter how much she meditated, she could not find a way to help her. The seconds passed and the situation remained the same. La Murci' did not move and this being did not attack. The more the seconds passed, the more it reaffirmed the conclusion that she was not going to be attacked until she moved from her place. It was strange, but credible. She wasted no more time and made up her mind. Rather, between the two of them they made a decision. That decision was to move. Both the guide and the Master thought that standing still wouldn't do much good, so she had to risk moving. Murci' is confident of his speed, but he has very little knowledge of the enemy's method of attack. 《I think I'm at a disadvantage, but if I don't take the risk nothing will change, there's no choice.》 《I'm not afraid, after all I will do my best to survive and taking the risk to try is a sign that I want to live. Besides, Eliz is with me and we both agree that something has to be done.》 》 After meditating with his gaze glued from all the eyes of that beast, he lets out a breath and closes his eyes. He concentrates and at great speed shoots off towards the front. It crosses over the wide lagoon and reaches the other side. It was wide, but not that wide and not deep at all. As she was moving at top speed, a loud bang is heard behind her. The loud bang is heard from where she had departed and pieces of rocks and minerals fly out ahead and the surrounding area. 《Ohhh, what am I up against!!!》 《If all those things went flying up in the air, then it's a monster with a lot of strength and speed, I have no idea what I'm facing, after all it must be my first time facing such a being.》 .... 《Of course it's my first time. Sometimes I do say stupid things. He reaches the other side of the small pond. He turns around and looks at the place he had started from. "Uh, you sure did destroy it completely." His body twitches for a few seconds. "If I had been caught by his attack I don't know what my body would be like currently." He watches as the dust from the attack slowly disperses. "Mmmm... What did it attack me with." "I don't see anything where I was." 《This is weird.》

She leaves aside the way she was attacked and starts to pay attention upwards, towards where the beast she had seen in pure reflection in the lake was. "Shit! It's the first time I've seen such a big one." "Luckily I'm not arachnophobic, otherwise I'd be running and crying by now." "My god, it's huge!!!!" She mentions loud and surprised between squeals. Eliz, also surprised by what she sees, it was her first time seeing something like that. Eight immense legs and completely black with little pink dots. Red eyes all over its face. At such features, Eliz can't help but ask in amazement. "Master, what is that beast!!!". Hearing her ask that question from a guide caused the Murci' annoyance and astonishment at the same time. 《Buuuuuuuu....Buuuuuuuu..... Buuuuuuuu...I still find it odd that a guide has no knowledge at all about where we are standing, but bue'...》 《I seem to have more knowledge myself, than my guide.》 《Seriously, it's super weird that I don't know what a spider or a dragon is, even though this spider is very different and weird, you can tell it's one. That's why I had no problem recognizing it now that I got a better look at it. However, its size gives me a bad feeling. Compared to the rats this one is a total Boss. "That's a spider you see and it sure has venom or so I think." Eliz repeats the name several times in a curious and surprised manner, as if it was some great historical find or something. As the Murci said those words to her, the spider came down from the ceiling little by little and face up. Once it reaches the ground it turns upside down and its gaze falls on the poor bat that was lying in front and on the other side of the lagoon. [Eliz] "I think it wants to kill you." Hearing those words, the Murci' does not hide her face that seems to say "No shit." It changes that face to its normal appearance. "He definitely wants to fight." "And here I thought this could be settled peacefully..... Naaaaaaaaaa, I never thought of that, it was just a joke, it was obvious I was going to fight that spider." "I'll have to kill it, there's no other way, after all this is about Self overcoming always isn't it?"

And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.
