《My Life is a Series of Questionable Choices》Chapter 1 - My New Life
Advertisement
Chapter 1
A warm breeze blows against me. I slowly open my eyes and am greeted by the sunlight.
Where is this…?
I try to move my body, but it doesn’t respond. In a panic I look down, but all I see is grass.
What happened to my body?! And why is everything so huge?
It’s true. The trees and grass here are tall! I feel like a midget… or a gnome.
Suddenly a text box appears in front of me.
Welcome to your new life. Please be careful not to die again that would be troublesome.
Oh, right. I was reincarnated. And that last part wasn’t needed.
Even though I don’t remember much of my previous life, I do know that I was human… probably. So shouldn’t I stay a human?
Maybe in this world humans are small? No then they would be dwarves or something right?
To view your current status, please wonder ‘How am I doing today?’
HUH? The text box changed to something stupid.
Oh wait, status. That thing before said it was important right? Guess I better check it but… How am I doing today?

So this is the status. I think I can more or less understand it? But there is a huge problem…
What the hell does it mean by Pebble as my species?!
You are a small, shiny and smooth pebble. Probably would go far if skipped across a lake or something.

Is this text box trying to start a fight with me?!
If I had hands I would-!
I am the advice from the Unique skill [Help from Beyond]. If you have questions I’ll answer them.
Really? I can’t help but doubt that but…
If that is the case, why am I reborn as a rock?
You’re a pebble though?
… Hey, stop nitpicking.
It is probably the price for getting [Help from Beyond] as your gift?
Why are you asking it like a question? Aren’t you supposed to know the answers to what I ask?
No, no I’m Advice. I’m not always right.
Hoh boy, what a complete letdown. This gift sucks. I want a refund.
… Well, whatever. What’s done is done.
I can understand things like strength and defense, but magic? So there is magic in this world, with wizards and witches? And I can use it?
Yes, any object that possess a soul and have a certain amount of Intelligence can use magic.
The excitement. If I had blood it would be boiling right about now!
You’re a pebble, don’t get your hopes up, it’s ridiculous.
Damn you Advice! Don’t throw cold water on my parade! I’ll cry you know!
So the reason for my Intelligence and Mind stats for being what they are is because I can think to a certain extent, I guess.
My titles are supposed to do something as well right? Like power me up and stuff? I wonder what they do…
[One Who Seduces Women] The owner of this title will find themselves irresistible to most women they come into contact with. It’s easier to get dates, threesomes, and lower repercussions from ‘One night stands’.
Well, that’s useless as a pebble. I’m guessing that the other one is the same but with men?

[One Who Seduces Men] The owner of this title will find themselves irresistible to most Men they come into contact with. It’s easier to get free drinks, sausages, and lower repercussions from ‘One night stands’.
…I want to throw up a little. But it’s okay, I’m a pebble.
[One Who is Unfortunate] The owner of this title will frequently encounter misfortune, however as each misfortune accumulates, the next time a fortunate thing happens it will be amplified by the number of misfortunes.
What is this?! What a terrible title! Was my previous life really so miserable?! I don’t think many bad things equal one super good thing.
[One Who Went Out With a Bang] The owner of this title will be guaranteed to always go out in style no matter the situation.
That’s not enough information! This one is dangerous, more so than the one before it! Go out in style? I’d rather stay bland, thank you very much.
I wish I could sigh right about now. A new life as a ro-pebble.
…A new life as a pebble. Is this what they call karma?

The Monster Inside: The First Vampire
Despite appearances, there was once a time where monsters did not exist. Where peace and prosperity reigned over all life. But those sinful and demonic forces that had hidden themselves in the shadows just couldn't help themselves could they? They wanted a piece of that prosperity too. They wanted to taint it, corrupt it, revel in its dark side.This is the story of a boy who was tainted. Of a boy who unintentionally bore a seed of sin and who in his naivety let it out. This is the story of how that boy was shamed and disgraced. Of how he was outcast for simply being. This is the story of how that boy learned to embrace the darkness that made him different. A darkness that would later make him known as the Lord of Night. Note to Reader: I understand this book is not for everyone, if there is a writer that can write to please everyone, I have never heard of them. The MC can be frustrating in his decisions as he learns to grow and accept what and who he is. I believe this reality is unavoidable. That being said, if you feel the need to give a review, please do so, just know that I will report you if all that review seems to do is blab toxic language and insult my literary choices without giving constructive advice or alternatives. That's not just a me policy, that's a policy of this website. I'm not writing this note because I'm a writer who does not acknowledge that there are faults in my work. I know there are. That's what happens when it hasn't been professionally edited by someone other than the author. I'm saying this because I'm sick of reading 1 star or 0.5 star rated reviews that seem to do nothing but hate on the book because they don't like the story. No comments on grammar, ways to improve or suggestions for better story arcs. Just plain hate. It's not on, and I frankly shouldn't have to write this note, but needed to get it off my chest. In saying all that, thank you to those who do leave reviews that don't fall into the above category. Your appreciation of my work, or alternatively, your willingness to give advice for improvement, is appreciated.

Maitbudi
Fermboi was a man of one ideal: make the weak strong. When his rebellion against the king proved futile, he was given another chance at life. This time, he sought to do nothing after realizing the hopelessness of it all. Aventina wanted to do nothing more than to follow her father’s footsteps. On a retaliation raid against her tribe’s enemies, her brothers perished. Spared by a leader of her enemies, she returned home to find herself the chief of her tribe. Bolahulag, half-civilized and half-barbarian, half-lowborn and half-royal. Raised in his mother’s civilized tent in a sea of barbaric shelters, Bolahulag was hesitant to follow his paternal way of life. After a battle between a civilized king and his father, Bolahulag was sent as hostage to learn the economy and military of the nation his father defeated. Derai knew nothing more than being an orphan, but when a merchant took her in, the world she thought impossible soon became a reality. Monghe, stuck in a school exemplifying strength for most of his life, began to understand what he needed to do in order to be strong instead of weak. Story is mostly about nothing. Fermboi does most of the nothing. Aventina does most of the military things. Bolahulag does a balance of economy and military. Derai focuses on economy. Monghe spitfires what it means to be a typical hero. Hopefully this is enough to give a general idea to people who don’t like going blind aside from the work being purportedly “good.” Who am I kidding, my writing is terrible. I hope it improves though.
