So... After a night of sleep, all my stats are at their maximum values, now I only need to understand what relates to what, and on which scales are those numbers.
First things first: "Help"
H.E.I_.P.So, what you called me for this time? Know that I can only say explain things you already discovered
"Well, for first can you give me a rundown of this status? and also of the Hell".
H.E.I_.P.I had to imagine it that you wouldn't even understand those simple things, why did they assign me to you? Shouldn't you be a reincarnated being with great intelligence? Did it disappear?
"Just what kind of help are you? did no one ever said that you're able to drive someone to suicide with that kind of talk? Can't you simply answer to my questions?"
H.E.I_.P.Ehi, no one ever said my name is Help, I'm Hell Evilest Interface Underscore Program, mmm... killing someone just with talking... it would be quite the achievement. Why don't you die at least once? You'll come back anyway and you're still lvl 1, so you won't suffer the death penalty
....So if I die, the penalty is a reset. Well it kind of make sense, if you think about it, resurrection should be not possible, it's only thanks to the fact that I'm an undead and I'm in hell that I survived.
Now... how to ask about the stats? let's try with flattery: "By those words one can clearly feel your cruelty, this one wanted to ask about the meaning of those numbers, but after such display, I don't think I'm worthy of your words, I fear that I would be killed if I hear more of them"
H.E.I_.P.But of course, I'm the Evilest in all the Hell after all, no one can kill people with words better than me. I think that if I try some more, you'll just drop dead, so here we go: the normal cockroaches, also called humans, have all the physical stats at 13/14, and mental stats at 4/5, obviously, they change them by leveling up and throught their jobs/class

It turns out that humans are weaker than monster; it's probably beacause of their... our bodies, which brings me back to a question. How do I look? I don't think I'm the kind of human ghoul that always appear in anime: "ah, stop, this is too much, I think I'm going to suicide if I were to see my apparences".
H.E.I_.P.Well, we can't have that, here we go... http://imgur.com/8ciNfqR quite the beauty, right?
It seems I can't go anywhere but in Hell with my current apparences, let's finish this in single swoop: "Ah, now that I look like this, how can I ever go out of here? This is too cruel, the only crueler thing would be by giving me hope, only to take it back"
H.E.I_.P.What are you saying? there effectively is the possibility of gaining better apparences, you just need to level up to lvl 100 and change race! depending on what you kill, your magic proficiencies/resistance and luck, you'll have more choises... Ah, I forgot, in Hell there are only ugly undeads, and even if you're able to to become a vampire, they all die at the light of sunrise, not even the ancestors can survive. I'm reeeaaally sorry to have given you those sad news.
This is easier than it seems, I just need to let him mock me some more, and I'll have all the info I need... did I really managed to let him call me idiot yesterday? It was probably fault of my poor condition.
"Well, the good thing is that I don't even know how much time I passed wandering in the previous layer, probably my sister is already dead from hundreds of years, so I don't need to go out of here"
H.E.I_.P.Nope you wandered in there only for twelve odd years, no more than that... Ops, I shouldn't have said that, now you know that they're out of here, but you can't reach them.
Good, not much time has passed, I'm still in time, I only need to find a way out of here: "So you're saying that I can only live inside Hell now? Let's just hope that this is a good place to stay, until now the rules are very enticing"

H.E.I_.P.Yes, it's really good, you can revive every time in order to fell the pain of death again, here there are 9 layers, in which is present the light essence. The degree of the light essence goes from weakest, where we are now (and is called the 9th circle), to the strongest (which is called 1st circle), so the more powerful undead are placed near the center, and the weakest to the border, this way everyone gets to die at least one time a week
Not a bad way to give punishment, they give hope only to take it, and no one becomes strong enough to get out of here; this will be tricky.
But if everything is as Help said, then why I'm not feeling anything right now? In the 8th circle I was continuously roasted, I'm not feeling that sensation at all now? Following that logic, I shouldn't even able to regenerate, but I recovered from quite the large injuries (based on how many HP i had yesterday)
Too many questions, and the only one who can answer them will probably just shrug it off. I'll need to experiment with my stats for a time before making a serious plan; what's more, I need to find a way to evolve in something pleasant and at the same time acquire light resistance.
Ah, right, Help slipped some information during all that cursing, let's try: "magic proficiencies and resistances"
Lightning magic proficiency0%Lightning magic resistance0%Fire magic proficiency0%Fire magic resistance0%Earth magic proficiency0%Earth magic resistance0%Air magic proficiency0%Air magic resistance0%Water magic proficiency0%Water magic resistance0%Nature magic proficiency0%Nature magic resistance0%Light magic proficiency0%Light magic resistance-100%Dark magic proficiency0%Dark magic resistance7%Neutral magic proficiency0%Neutral magic resistance0%Ki proficiency0%Ki defence0%
Uuuuh, this is quite something, let's start the experiments Advertisement Previous
