《I Died and Got Summoned to Another World as a WHAT?!?!》Ep. 5 The Pit Part 2
Advertisement
Since I'm out here I should check out the central room, I was kind of in a rush last time.
'Activate Stealth!'
MP: 30/50
Once I am concealed by the skill I walk carefully back to the well room. I look around and see that there are no goblins, however there are several more rats nibbling at the goblins corpse. Still in stealth I slowly move closer until I am right behind one of the rats then I extend my claws and stab down at the rat's neck killing it instantly.
*DING*
Congratulations! You have acquired the active skill Sneak Attack!
Sneak Attack
Level 1
MP Cost 5
Attacking from Stealth deals 5% more damage.
Of course all the other rats bolt and are gone in seconds, but I don't mind because now I have more food. I am about to return to my room with the rat when I notice the goblin corpse has a rope belt over its loincloth. I don't want to touch the loincloth even though I am tired of being naked, but rope is always useful so I untie it and remove it from the corpse.
I get a pleasant surprise when I remove the belt, I find a sheathed dagger on it when I pick it up. Taking my spoils I quickly return to my room. Once safe behind the illusionary wall I set the rat down and pull the dagger to take a look at it.
I am immediately disappointed as it is rusty and looks fairly dull, but it is still a weapon so I decide to see what I can do to make it useful. I stare at the dagger while I try to think how to remove the rust and sharpen the blade with what I have available.

Congratulations! You have acquired the passive skill Observe!
Observe
Level 1
Int +1
You can identify common level items.
Not that I need a skill to identify that this is a rusty dagger but the Int point is nice. I try using some coarse dirt to buff the rust off the dagger, it works somewhat but takes a lot of elbow grease. Then I use a claw to notch one of the leftover bricks and repeatedly draw the dagger back through the notch to sharpen it.
*DING*
Congratulations! You have acquired the craft skill Repair!
Repair
Level 1
Str +1 Int +1
You can repair common items somewhat.
Once the dagger is kind of sharp again I use it to skin the rat. Then I use it to scrape the rat pelts clean. Once the pelts are as clean as I can get them I use the rat's organs as a tanning agent and stretch them out and pin them down with bricks.
*DING*
Congratulations! Skill Skinning has progressed to level 2!
Skinning
Level 2
Agi +2
You can skin small to medium animals.
It won't work as well as a frame but I don't have enough wood to make one. Hopefully I've remembered how to do this right. After all I only saw it once on a random survival video.
Then I take the rat's guts and stretch them out and twist them tight and leave them to dry. Next I cook the rat meat, not as hungry this time I fully cook it. It doesn't taste any better but it is easier on my stomach.
Then I go to check the basin and while it is only half full the water is crystal clear. I drink my fill and then curl up on the floor to try to get some sleep.

When I wake up I am stiff and sore from sleeping on the cold stone. I stand up and stretch out the kinks then drink some water. Next I go through another workout routine to warm up my muscles.
*DING*
Congratulations! Skill Fitness has progressed to level 2!

Okay that is going to be my morning routine from now on. At least I think it's morning? I guess I can't really keep track of time down here. Let's see how I am doing so far. STATS!

Hmm my stats have gone up nicely just from getting skills, but I'm still not healing very fast. I wasn't hungry or thirsty last night when I went to sleep so that wasn't the reason. Maybe healing is just this slow without any kind of items? I need a skill to help me heal faster....
Now that I think about it, in a lot of martial arts manga the characters can use meditation to heal so maybe I can create a similar skill here? Worth a shot I guess. First I try to sit down cross legged but with my legs bending the wrong way I have a hard time. It takes me a few minutes to find a way to sit that works with my new legs, then I slow my breathing and work to clear my mind.
*DING*
Congratulations! You have acquired the passive skill Meditation!
Meditation
Level 1
Wis +1
A skill for recovery. HP 5/hour MP 5/hour
'Yes!! It worked!'
It's still kind of slow but it's better than sleeping. At this rate I can be fully healed with sixteen more hours of meditation, and maybe it will improve if I level the skill up. Then I meditate for the next two hours.
HP: 75/145
*DING*
Congratulations! Skill Meditation has progressed to level 2!
Meditation
Level 2
Wis +2
A skill for recovery. HP 5/hour MP 10/hour
Okay leveling the skill was fairly easy. My MP recovery went up but not my HP recovery? Oh well, maybe next level up. I get up and get a drink before returning to my meditation. I meditate for four more hours before the ding breaks my meditation.
HP: 95/145
*DING*
Congratulations! Skill Meditation has progressed to level 3!
Meditation
Level 3
Wis +3
A skill for recovery. HP 10/hour MP 10/hour
Alright that is much better. Five more hours of meditation and I'll be fully healed.

A Collection of Tales
This is or rather will become a collection of short stories set in the worlds of The Misplaced Dungeon and Unexpected Consequences as I am finding it difficult to avoid including some amusing ideas that would sidetrack those stories. And now also include stories from the world of And Dungeon Makes Three. Unless otherwise stated these stories happen in the background and are here because they seem to want to get out. Updating will be irregular.

The Dungeon Draft (A LitRPG novel)
All families must enlist one child into the draft at age ten to contribute to their survival. Few make it through the six months of mandatory service inside one of the numerous dungeons surrounding them. However, those that are chosen can greatly improve their families status depending on how long they survive, and most strive to provide for their loved ones even if their chances are slim of ever seeing them again. Three children from different factions are thrown together by fate, and perhaps a fair amount of luck, into a dangerous dungeon where nothing is as they expected. No one believes they will come out alive, but with tenacity and unexpected teamwork, they might just have a shot of proving eveyone wrong.

Shonen Hero System

The Core of a Factory
An abandoned steampunk arms factory, in the middle of a conflict torn former state of the Empire it served, gains a soul. This transforms it into a Lord, capable of turning land into power. Beset by enemies on all sides it must figure out how to win the war its creators lost a century ago. This is a progressive Dungeon Core novel (which is to say the core will progress and expand in scale, eventually) across multiple dimensions with different characteristics (e.g. steampunk, magic, mythological). It has rationalist leanings (paragraphs of reasoning) and litrpg leanings (there are stat blocks). The core game mechanical idea is something like "what if different flavors of magic power actually did come from controlling land" and then the story is: "what if there was a flavorless (artifact deck) dungeon core". Chapters will be relatively short (my aim is that in three column format each would fit on a wide screen monitor), the first few chapters - setting up the main character and mechanics - are currently the longest in the entire series. I write chapters in blocks, and then release them one a weekday (M-F; 6 PM GMT, unless RoyalRoad's publish thing screws up) until I run out. There may be a few days of gaps here and there if someone finds an egregious error I have to re-write around or if I am behind. In general though one can read this once a weekend. I may do slight retconns and edits, I'll make sure to put it in an authors note if I do.
