《Living Life as a Plant in a Magical World, Quite Strange Right?》Prologue: *Sigh* an average day at work
Advertisement
I am Lamerian Porina and I'm a botany scientist which are people who study about plants and their functionality, like how the plant works and whatnot. It seems like today will be another day of workload about the extremely difficult to understand Star Dragon Fruit.
It gives the user the capacity of gaining more stamina, strength, or something along those lines. The side effect is atrocious as we learn soon enough that when it is eaten, the person faces particularly abdominal thirst, distorted sights, high amounts of pain, delirium, and would soon die afterward.
This is an extremely dangerous fruit that should not be eaten at all cost but if we can remove the dangerous part of the star-shaped fruit then we can create a type of super boost that is capable of breaking a human's limit. I thought in my mind, as I stare at the fruit which was placed on the table surrounded by glass.
Everyone else is eating lunch, so I'm here by myself as I analyze the fruit a little bit longer before shrugging off my shoulders. I decided, that if I'm going to test anything else on this fruit then I will need the team to help me on this or else I might find myself in a bad situation.
I soon heard thrashing sound coming from the door and quickly took out my gun in my lab coat. Don't ask me why I have a gun in my pocket just accept it and get over it as I slipped over to the side of a table and took a ducking position before aiming my gun towards the door.
Multiple people wearing SWAT armor with assault rifles and riot shields busted in and cleared the way, as I decided they were going to kill me even if I surrender. Since they don't seemed to be the type of people to take prisoners by their aura that they are displaying right now.
I started sweating because I'm completely outnumbered but I know this lab like the back of my hand and rolled towards a box covering a little gift that is in the form of a canister. Now, what this is, is poisonous mustard gas that was sent to us by the agency that works on plants.
These were for testing out on plants and seemed to be the right kind of thing to use at the moment. It was also hidden there just in case we need it for later as we always know where to put our dangerous equipment at. I swiped the mask under the box as well as I prepare to use it.

The SWAT like people were also using gas masks because they were using tear gas but I would be able to do something about that. I took the canister and press a button on top of it releasing the gas before throwing it at them. I shot their gas tanks and make them lose out air.
We got into a long gun fight until they finish me off with more troops pouring in with riot shields and whatnot. I breathe a sigh of relief as this ends with me as the final victor, as I heard gunshots right behind the SWAT like men. Everything went dark as blood flushed out of my system faster than a toilet being drained.
It hurts like a bitch but it seems like I will see myself in the afterlife, I thought to myself before closing my eyes one last time before my vision gone completely dark. My vision suddenly rewind as I open it once more and see only whiteness as it spreads far and wide.
Really, I'm in the afterlife? I thought to myself before finishing up my thoughts as a beautiful snow white lady appears in front of me in an oddly nicely tucked clothing which is also white. "Hello, my name is Seria and I'm a goddess who is basically a replacement for my stupid brother who got trapped."
Seria speaks to me with a calm expressionless face as she practically said that she was a replacement? I didn't go into further details with that and began to ask my questions that is interesting me more. Such as..."Seria can you tell me why you suddenly wanted me?"
She taps her expressionless face before giving me an answer to my question that I was hoping for. "It's because I felt that you had a unique personality and decided that I will put you back into the reincarnation cycle but you will have to pull it out of these boxes."
She said as and a three boxes appear out of nowhere with a snap of her hands as I looked at each one with questionable eyes. Each one of them not telling me what they are for but Seria will probably tell me or I'm just making everything up in a large dream which I highly doubt.
I looked at right and gesture for Seria to continue and explain what these boxes are for and what they do. "The one on the right is the race card that you will pull which practically means what kind of race you will start as, while the middle is to decide what kind of advantage you will have, like still having your memories, and the last one is for what kind of situation you are put in."

Seria stops for a couple of seconds before continuing on explaining on the boxes of each one. "Depending on which cards you will pull, it will have a letter grade for each one as well as an explanation to specify each one. So, it will promptly tell you about what you will get.
Now, the explanation is over why not get started with the real fun." She said before gesturing me to take a look at each one, as this is random I take no time to pull a card out of each one which lets me have three cards that tell me what I have. Seria expression face flickers a bit before she looks at all three of mine and made a faint smile.
"Oh no, I looked like my brother now, oh dear maybe I should really keep my expressionless face." She said to herself as I'm over making an "Eh!?" stare at what kind of cards that I had grabbed. The things that had made me make such a weird sound was none other the kind of race I had picked out that made me have a bewildered expression.
"Oh, it seems you got the Creatia plant species that have the ability to create other things to fight for it but has to use points that are gained through stealing life force like some sort of parasitical creature. By either killing or stealing it through other means, quite the good catch as it can also evolve into an B species with time.
While you also get the past life memory remember which is an A+ rare card that is almost hardly ever given but sometimes it's given out crazily by strong individual who aren't even that strong compared to me, maybe they are a little bit weaker than me, around .00000000001% of my power, I guess that's enough to revive people with their memory intact.
As I can mostly likely beat them without using much of my power at all, but enough talking about myself and let's see the final card you get, which is an C average card which means you get an average head start." I completely realized something that made me question what she said right at that moment.
"W-wait how much is an + in this equation", I said in an inquisitive way to get an answer out of her. The reason why I said this is because C should be an average, and I should get an average creature as such, it should be a dog or something similar to those who don't have any special features that make them stand out. She bolts her head towards mean to look at me with her expressionless face again.
"The + means quite a lot as this is choosing your species for the rest of your life, then it means that it has to be greater than a normal creature who don't have anything that makes it stand out and there are quite a lot of creatures with unique abilities so that one will be difficult." She promptly answer my question before I had one last thing to say before making my exit the new world.
"What are you?" I said in a manner not to defend her in any way but it was a question that's really been stuck on my mind for quite some time. Yes, I know she is God but why a replacement, what happened to the original all of this makes my head swirl around like a world pool.
Seria makes a smirk as she turns her back on me and looks away in the far distances. "Indeed, that is a good question but as I said earlier, I am a replace to god nothing more, nothing less. There is a reason for this but I might talk about this towards you when you have grown into something that is a little more powerful."
Seria said before snapping her hands and making me disappear as the last thing I saw a smile and a good bye.

Unfortunately, the new capsules cost $100,000 and not many people can afford them, either way the new game World of Destiny was a hit with over 110 million subscriptions!Meet our tragic MC Feng Jun, an injured psychopath that simply wants to get his next kill. He has no MO, he doesn't even care if what he kills is an insect let alone a person. He just has to kill every once in awhile to scratch his itch.

Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)
