《The undead who yearned for life》10-Experiments and comprehension

Jack viewpoint
So, by following a game-like logic, now I should say: "Skill window"
INNATE SKILLSEndless memory: thanks to your out of the norm soul, you can now store your memories inside it, no matter if good or bad, from now on you'll never forget anything you experience (this includes all the senses you have or gain; other perks will appear as you discover them)Severed by fate: strange skill that enables your soul to directly alter some of your statsFate vision (sorry, can't have you alter other people's fate, you're not me *Goddess of fate*): enables you to see other people fates, which includes their trials and their life expectancySteady hands: gives a 50% accuracy bonus and 10% critical chance; it's immensely useful in many different jobs Blessing of the Goddess of Fate: strange blessing given by the the goddess, those who possess it are said to not have bindings and be able to go against the flowRACIAL SKILLSInstinct of the beast: in a range of 50 meters, allow you to detect any life form (at max 15 levels higher than you) that are not using stealth related abilities, also gives you a rough estimate of the other party strength by means of fearGlutton: by eating any living (or fresh killed) life forms, you're able to heal fasterImmunity system: because you're dead, not many viruses can affect you, and because you're an undead, every other kind of viruses, bacteria, exc. are killed off
Not bad, not bad at all; it's a pity for the skill, but I can more or less understand why the Goddess would not permit me to use it, depending in how it's used, it's quite OP.
Probably because there is the revival rule, I'm starting to think of this as a game; and the first thing that you do in a game is: levelling. Though I still haven't seen a living soul... or a dead soul, or even a body without soul, I'm sure they're somewhere in this endless plain, it's just that I'm near the border, so nothing comes here.

I started to run while trying new words, but it seems that there aren't other menu-like functions, or I still don't have the permission to use them; if the system can be upgraded from lvl 1 to lvl 2, there must be a lvl 3, lvl 4, and so on.
While running I stabilized my body, and once you understand that you're faster on four limbs than you're in two, the speed of the body far surpasses the theoric 20 points in agility. If I have to guess, I'd say that strength is also helping with the movement speed.
Congratulation, you figured out how to calculate your movement speed, from now on, you'll be able to see it in your status.
+2 wisdom, +1 intelligence
I was reading the notice when the first undead came into range, it was a simple skeleton, but between the instinct warning, and the blue windows, I panicked.
I ended up passing right through the skeleton at the max speed I was capable of. It resembled the crash between a truck and a human... the truck always wins.
Congratulation, you discovered a new skill: charge
Congratulation, you killed your first foe and received your first experience, from now on, you can see how much experience you accumulate in your status
Congratulation, thanks to killing your first foe in a single hit without giving him the possibility to retaliate, the skill charge evolved in charge+
...Well, for something that I had not planned, nor expected, this is quite the lucky found. It seems, skills can be acquired by performing certain actions, and they can also be awarded or upgraded by the system, if I play my cards right, I can become quite powerful.
"show skill charge+"
Charge+: when you're at more than ten meters from your target, this skill gives you a large boost of speed, if you manage to hit your target, you deal +15% of damage and inflict the to the target for 2 seconds. If you gather speed before using this skill, the effect will vary depending on the speed achieved.

Consumes: 10 EP each use
After checking the details of the skill I continued to run, while killing some stray skeleton along the way. Thanks to my new skill, my speed improved, and because I was continuously using it, it soon reached novice lvl2.
After the morning passed (or what I hope is morning, the time here is difficult to keep track of) I arrived to a forest of tombstones, and when I say forest, I mean a lot of tombstones easily higher than thirty meters.
Let's make this my new hunting ground. Advertisement Previous

Demonic Requiem | The Epitome of Evil
He feared none but himself. As a human, Elias walked a cruel path which only got more vicious as he became a demon. Born as the son of the most powerful man in the continent, but lived a life no worse than a slave. His only friend being solitude. The further he endured, the further he began to lose his humanity. Even a point came when he lost all rationality and lived as a senseless demon. But no matter the obstacle. He endured. He learned. He survived. He evolved. As the rumors of his endeavors spread, many dreaded him, many worshipped him and many bowed before him.Nonetheless, Elias continued to walk on his path. The path of a demon. As time passed, Elias terrorized the world with his evil and devious means. People deemed him as a threat who could no longer be ignored. Many empires united. They allied, and an all-out war started. But, be it the cruelty of fate or their foolishness, the alliance lost. Elias stood as the lone survivor, but alas, he lost his life from an unforeseen cause. But for better or worse, his story still seems to have not ended. Elias gets reborn back when he was young, and the path he walked once, he will walk again, but this time the one who suffers will not be him. What to expect: This story is based on the concept of "What if a villain, gets a second chance?". Hence it contains a lot of torture, torment, and inhumanity. Revenge or such feelings do not drive Elias, so it's not a revenge story. There won't be any rape scenes or incest. It's also not a story like that. But expect some cruelty and torture along the way. Also, it's a slow-paced novel. In short: A lunatic who terrorized the world with devious power and cruel means gets reborn, this time becoming even more powerful and ruthless. Link for the Cover Art:

Dreamland
Dolores is a lucky girl with a high-level avatar in a very popular game. She did not level it up; she got it through some fortunate circumstances. She is not interested in fighting and levelling; all she wants is to have some fun and follow her own fantasies. If only there would not be all those idiots who intend to kill her, capture her, or simply use her. And those flaws in the game! Wait, what? Those pesky game characters now appear in the real world? And they can do magic? How did this happen? Adding to her troubles, her crush does not even look at her. As Dolores tries only to survive and hide between 'normal' people, she encounters stranger and stranger things that force her hand and, in the end, she has the answers to a lot of questions. It is a slow-developing story. I had a lot of fun writing it and hope to share it with you, dear reader if you also enjoy it. On the other hand, putting it in an acceptable form requires much work and energy. I intend to bring it to its end and not let it unfinished. I hate it when I encounter unfinished stories, so I understand the feeling. This is not a classical isekai story. There is travel between the two worlds, and the game world seems to be so very real... well, this is one plot of the story. This is not an MMORP game story. Part of the action happens inside a game world, but it is treated as a real world. Updates on a weekly basis, at least Monday and Friday, with additional bonus chapters as time and energy allow. Cover art: White Flower as A Dark Fairy by Darkrealmsmaiden Yolanda gracefully allowed me to use her dark fairy as cover. There are many more beautiful works of art to be discovered at her site: https://www.deviantart.com/darkrealmsmaiden Additional Grammar Trigger Warning: As a non-native speaker, I do my best. Unfortunately, this is not enough for people with a low tolerance for warped sentences and... they may want to skip the story :( Well, you have been warned :) I appreciate it when a reader points out a sentence that needs rework. That may spare a follow-up reader some pain and helps me understand where my English grammar problems are. * We thought we made the best game in Earth's history We thought we made the best interfaces ever seen We thought we made it - lifelike But it far exceeded our expectations. Dolores, I hope you're happy now. I hope you're alive now...
