《The Gambling Demon King is full of Misfortune》Chapter 8
Advertisement
I woke up, the sun blinding me.
“Time to hunt”
I said with a small grin, as I hopped out of my bed, grabbed my shortsword and club and left for the forest.
I was in a part of the forest that was mostly filled with rabbits and wolves.
After a few minutes of walking around, looking for something to kill. I came across a rabbit… with a weird horn on its head.
‘It’s a horned rabbit’
I thought, as I readied my shortsword and club, and I pounced on it.
“Die!”
I shouted as I hit it in the head multiple times with the club, using the shortsword to block its horn.
I killed it… but, it’s inedible… mostly because I hit it too much… now, it’s literally an amalgamation of blood, guts and… fur.
“Eeergh!”
I shouted in disgust, as I threw it away.
“Grrrr”
I threw it right into the mouth of a wolf.
“Well then, let’s fucking do this!”
I shouted as I sprinted towards it, prepared to kill.
It was taken aback by my sudden movement, which allowed me to give it a swift… multiple club strikes to the head.
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
I laughed, as I grabbed the wolf and took it back to camp, to be cooked.

“Alright then… let’s get some more exp”
I said, as I returned to the woods.
Only to see… another fucking ogre!!!
“Oh… me and my fucking luck… god damn it!”
I whispered angrily, as I readied my shortsword and club.
“Come get some!!!”
I shouted, as I stabbed it in the back of the leg.
“ROOOAR!!!”
It roared in pain, as it swung its club at me.
“Oh fuck!”
I shouted, as I dodged the club.

I then counterattacked by stabbing the ogre in the leg, causing it to cry out in pain.
“GRAAAAAAH!!!!”
It swung its club downwards, trying to crush me.
“Oh fuck!”
I shouted, as I rolled out of the way of the club and stabbed it in the toe.
“GRAH!!!”
It roared as it kicked me in the stomach, causing me to go flying back.
“Guh!”
I shouted in shock as I tried to get up.
“Bring it on you son of a bitch!!!”
I shouted with a grin on my face, as I rushed at it.
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
I woke up, covered in blood with the ogre lying next to me. With its head lopped off, and a dead rabbit next to me.
I slowly got up.
“Never… doing that… again”
I said, as I limped back to camp, with the dead rabbit in my hand.
“This’ll be a decent snack”

When I got back, I got several notifications.

“Looks like I didn't kill the ogre using the club… damn”
I said, as I began to eat my dinner, which was a cooked wolf and cooked rabbit.
“I know that this should’ve been a snack… but, it’s better to go to sleep on a full stomach”
I said to myself, as I continued eating.
“Oh, right… [Status]!”
I said, as I remembered about my status.

I said, as I began punching a tree.

“Well… that’s pretty good, I at the very least have a better will than the average person… now… time to take a break”
I said as I laid on the grass and looked at the sky.
‘Just looking at the sky like this… reminds me of my past life… I had so many regrets… I want to live this one… no regrets… at all’
I thought, as I began to fall asleep.

I woke up, around half an hour later.
“Aaaah~ That was a good nap… now, do I have anything left to do today… oh right! The lottery!”
I shouted in sudden realization.
“System!”
Yes?
“Lottery, please”
Rolling.
I saw several words scroll past.
“Paladin”
“Demonic Blade”
“Gauss Rifle”
“World Key”
“Red Dragon”
“Blunt Sword”
“Wooden Dagger”
“Child Slave”
But, what I got was… Curse of the snake (Minor)
I looked at it for a second, confused. But then, rage overcame me.
“Are you fucking shitting me! Gah!”
I shouted, as I felt an enormous amount of pain come from my mouth.
“Gyaaaaaaa!!!”
I continued to shout throughout the night.
“What… happened… to me… it… hurtsssssss”
I said, with a hiss.
“What… was that a… hisssss? Oh god! Cursssse of the ssssnake! Sssshit!”
I shouted in anger.
“Thissss isss fucking bullssshit!!!”
I shouted, as I kicked a tree.
“Sssssystem!”
I shouted.
Yes?
“What happened to me!?”
I asked angrily.
The curse of any living being, no matter how small. Will always result in a mutation. Your body has suffered from that mutation. So, you’re part snake. But, there’s a good side to this. You can secrete poison from your fangs.
“Fangsss!? Poissson!? Fucking hell! I can’t talk with the letter ssss anymore! God damn it!”
I shouted angrily.
You are also immune to certain types of poison, like the ones you have at your disposal
“Onesss… like… more? What typesss of poisssonsss do I have?”
I asked.
Numbing, Venom, Petrifying and a poison that can work as medicine. In small doses.
“Ssso… I’m immune to medicine to?”
I asked.
No, you’re not.
“Okay… good… now, I’m going to sssleep”
I said, as I passed out.
Oh, and you’ll be compelled to sleep when it’s hot out. Sort of like hibernating… and snakes will be more attracted to you.

The Fracture
It was a normal day for the inhabitants of ERT-5901, more commonly known by the populace as Earth. A beautiful planet with lush resources and fertile land, well at one point anyways. Children were born, the elderly died, and Man was as corrupt as ever. But hey, what can you do about that? Can’t change human nature… But that's not the point. Basically the planet was peaceful, for the most part. Certainly they were better off than the species on FTL-3470… We don’t talk about them. Better to leave that book unopened. Anyways, that was all until January 5th of the year 2025. When the sky broke. Fractured. Stunning ocean blue cracks were spotted in the sky all over the planet. A spiders web of cracks and crevices littered the blue skies, tearing all that global peace to shreds. All while Wyatt Walker, a sad example of a human being, was black out drunk in a bar somewhere in LA. This is a post-apocalyptic, portal isekai, high fantasy kind of story set on our very own green Earth! The world has fractured, broken. The inhabitants of ERT-5901 are in for quite the quick and dramatic change in their way of life. Murder, theft, and death have become the norm. Survival of the fittest to the extreme. If you can’t keep up, then good luck playing the game. Hello, Kaiser here! I am the author of this lovely story and I would just like to put a few disclaimers down here. First, English is, in fact, my first language. This by no means I will have perfect grammar and there are bound to be spelling mistakes (please forgive me) and places where I accidentally put plot holes. If you find anything, I would appreciate it if you could let me know so I can fix / change it. I also welcome any constructive criticism or opinions you might have about the story (doesn’t always mean I will change something). Second, I am by no means a professional writer here. Just a confused student who wanted to write something. So, uh, here's my story? Third, if you can’t handle any of the following I recommend you find a different story as I will by no means change any of these topics. [Gore, Profanity, Twisted themes, Dark scenes, and Death] If you’re a sensitive person or a queasy person I would highly recommend a different story. Fourth, I would like to write with freedom so I will by no means be lenient with my writing. I intend to write without mercy. Characters will die, bad things will happen, blood will be spilled, and humans will continue to be humans. I would like to write things as realistically as possible while still having that dash of fantasy. Not everything will be all dark and gloom, there will be happy and funny moments mixed! (Hopefully, not a lot of edge) Enjoy! ッ
