Lucious nodded. Say something about these blue screens, say they know what a good meal is.
Holding his knife and spoon tightly, Lucious jolted up, getting off the ground slightly backward, then as his foot hit the edge of his chair, he lunged forward, getting on top of the table, and away from the hand that attempted to claw at him.
Lucious turned around, keeping his center of gravity low enough for quick movement.
Level 7 Ghoul
Without a breath’s pause, the 5 feet Ghoul lunged forward again, swiping with both of its claws at Lucious’s feet. Having anticipated it, Lucious had jumped forward, already above the creature by the time it had overextended itself. Lucious extended his foot forward as he was in the air, pivoting his entire body upon the creature’s shoulder as he fell downward. With his entire weight, Lucious stabbed the creature’s neck as he fell. Avoiding the spine, the 3-inch kitchen knife had pierced all the way to its hilt, the momentum carrying it down four inches across the ghoul’s rotting skin.
CRITICAL HIT 100% INCREASED DAMAGE.
Backstabbed 50% increased damage.
Arteries hit, Applies 20% Per Sec Max HP Bleeding until healed.
As soon as Lucious completed his strike, he left the blade inside the creature's neck as he stepped slightly backward and ducked. The Ghoul immediately spun around with a screech, swiping at its assailant with its left hand, carrying the momentum of the turn with it.
Finding nothing, the creature’s attack once again threw it off balance, giving Lucious just enough time to fling himself from his crouching position. The creature being as tall as Lucious, easily allowed him to counter-attack. This time, his fork sunk itself a couple inches inside the beast’s eyeball.

CRITICAL HIT 100% INCREASED DAMAGE
Confusion and Half-Blindness Status inflicted
Now that Lucious was standing inches from its rot filled face, the creature would probably try to bear-hug him. The moment Lucious second blade pierced through, he took a half step backward, allowing himself just enough space to bring his leg in, and then out right into the center of the Ghoul’s chest, knocking the small beast into the table. It landed right on top of the table, splitting the table in two.
Luscious took a step back, panting heavily. Feeling the adrenaline inside his body, an old sensation was coming back, with it a hint of fear. Three seconds after, the Ghoul stopped thrashing

This shit is no dream, Lucious realized as he furtively glanced around. All the Ghouls were engaged, creating a massive slaughter. None of these men or women would be able to fight, and from what he could tell, there was one Ghoul for every two persons. The smart ones stayed and held their ground with whatever the could, while the stupid ones attempted to escape through the locked doors. This was a losing battle.
The blue screens hadn’t vanished yet, though they were transparent enough to see through. After promptly studying them, Lucious came up to the conclusion that he, in fact, did not know what the fuck was going on.
That did not matter, however, for his muscles were aching for more. Swallowing, Lucious surrendered himself to his urges. Thinking would come after he had sufficiently killed everything.

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)
