《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?

Titles
[One Who Seduces Women] [One Who Seduces Men] [One Who is Unfortunate] [One Who Went Out With a Bang]
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?

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
