Volume 1 Chapter 4: Luckily unlucky
Me: “Ugh….”
I let out a small groan as I felt intense pain all throughout my body...
It's a feeling that as if someone used me as a training dummy and repeatedly truck me with a metallic bat non-stop....
It’s so painful that I can't feel anything else but pain...
Me: "...This place?"
Looking around, I noticed that I was not in the yard anymore...
Me: "This place is... my bedroom in [Mistel]"
I quickly notice the room's interior has the same look as [Mistel]. I could be wrong... I Hope its [Mistel]
I wonder what happened, did my experiment succeed? I can't remember what happened yesterday. In fact, it feels like some parts of my memories are missing... I would have laughed at this if this was my typical forgetfulness but this time is different.
Me: “Ugh… [Show status effect]”
Just to be safe, I opened up status effects.
System:Effect:Time:Weakened
Self-Sacrifice
Regeneration54:12:49
54:12:49
99:99:99
Me: “Weakened? Self-Sacrifice?”
Regeneration probably came from the [Temple], but these two words are new to me.
System:Status effect: WeakenedDecrease your stats by 50%
Diminishing Effect
System:Status effect: Self-SacrificeSelf-Sacrifice is still in effect
Diminishing Effect
I could make a wild guess regarding Weakened as it could be a recoil effect because of the experiment's result, but I can't make anything out of Self-Sacrifice.
Me: “[Show Status]”

>Customization [Note: I forgot to include skill Natural Talent... Sorry my fault] Oi oi oi! This is more that 50%! All of my stats are now at 25! Shouldn't they be at 50? It must be because of Self-Sacrifice... When did I even get this? System:Skill Name:Self-SacrificeSkill Rank:Skill Level:Skill Type:A3ActiveDescription:The ability to sacrifice yourself for others or for your own goal Eh? I think I got another piece of the puzzle... But why is it lvl.3? I don’t remember allocating points to a skill I never knew existed... I tried allocating some of my skill points to Calm Mind and Creation , it failed… But it was normal when I allocated points to my active/passive skills Just to be sure, I tapped at Special Abilities to get the description. System:Special Abilities:[Special Abilities] are unique skills that closely resemble a person’s nature. You can even say that [Special Abilities] are innate to the person itself. …So Special Abilities are skills related to me? Is that the reason I can’t increase its lvl by allocating points into it? Then it means God Abilities is somehow the same as Special Abilities? What about Professions? since I don’t have one I can’t really test it. Me: *Sigh* “…I guess I’m stuck in bed for two and a half da-” While saying that, the blanket that was covering me slightly moved… In my current state, I could barely move my body because of the pain. I can only lift my head a bit and stared at the part of the blanket that moved. I stared at it for a good 60 seconds before deciding to go back to sleep as I started to feel drowsy But Before I could lay my head down on the soft pillow, the blanket moved again and this time, a head was slightly showing itself out of the blanket Seeing this, I began to move despite the pain. I try to move my body away, but it seems that the person underneath the blanket is pulling me! I was left with no other choice but to wiggle my whole body hoping to break free from the grip. Me: “Let go of me!” ???: "......?" The blanket slowly begins to rise, revealing a beautiful girl hiding underneath the blanket. She slowly approaches my face while intently staring at me... looking directly into my eyes. Her face is very close to mine as I could feel her warm breath, but I noticed that her blue eyes appeared soulless... Me: “…uh” I was confused at the situation unfolding in front of me... We stayed in that position for a minute before the girl lay down on the bed again and hugged me... I stared at her while still confused...

I could say that the experiment of Creating life succeeded? Ah~ I feel tired... I guess I'll just sleep... This girl seems harmless enough, I'll just ignore her for now... . . . . . . I woke up the next day feeling a little bit better than yesterday, I'm now able to move my body to a certain extent but it still hurt... I choose to stay in bed and rest a bit more... I feel like an old man with my actions right now... Me: "That girl "Feruniru" is nowhere to be found.... Did she wander out? That's fine, but I don't think she left [Mistel] though…" I softly muttered.... I somehow feel sad/worried about her. I don’t know how or why though, but I just had the feeling she won’t leave me…. I continued inspecting my status while I lay in bed. The descriptions were a bit weird as I read them. Strength - “Able to break mountains with a single strike” Agility - “Able to tamper with space and time” Endurance - “Able to achieve invulnerability” Vitality - “Able to achieve immortality” Intellect - “Able to use all forms of magic” Let me take a wild guess here~ So if you pick an attribute and pair it with your nature, it will become your title? For example, picking [Strength] and you 'love to fight'; you’ll eventually have the title [God of War]? Maybe it’s because of my poor habit of choosing… I don’t regret picking luck though but… somehow, the description was something to make me greatly worry. The description was written on the mysterious white screen instead of the standard blue screen… > Good Luck? Bad Luck? It's still the same luck! Something will definitely happen! Are you familiar with the term: The Butterfly Effect? It has this very strange aura around it… It makes me think that “I’ve dug up my own grave haven’t I?” As for [The Butterfly Effect], I believe it was that “Even for the smallest action, it can change the universe or something” I have a very bad feeling about this… I hope this bad feeling is from the Weakened or Self-Sacrifice status effect.Advertisement

The Triumphs and Tribulations of Kai Jameson
Kai Jameson is an average everyday young man. He still lives at home with his parents after having just graduated from college. He loves playing video games and his job at the local Buy More is tolerable. Of course that all changes the moment the system arrives and the Earth is connected to the Nexus. Turns out Kai was trapped in time for about eighteen months while the people already here got a headstart on him. He lucks into being rescued by some people from a town called Donnyton and learns that if he wants to survive in this New Earth he'll have to work harder than ever before. The rewards are worth it. This is Kai's story, the moments of his triumphs, and the moments when he feels that things couldn't possibly be worse. Thanks to puddles4263 and his story The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound for the inspiration on the world this is set in. If you have never read that I highly recommend it, and if you have read it and enjoyed that story then I hope you'll enjoy mine as well. This is the first story I'm ever putting out for public consumption so reader beware on that. Any constructive criticism is always appreciated, simply leaving a half star review tells me that you're a moron who doesn't know how to use words. I'm constantly trying to improve my writing and feedback and criticism on what works and what doesn't is the only way to do that at the point I feel I am at. Last, I just marked all the content warnings because you never know where a story will take you and I don't want to exclude anything (though there will never be a harem). I am going to release 1-2 chapters per week on Fridays. Thanks and enjoy.
