*Gasp!*
"I see you are awake, good."
"Uuggghhh..."
"Take it easy kid, you have just recuperated from a vast amount of damage, quite frankly, i would consider it a miracle if not because the gods are assholes who hate us all."
"Aaaahh... Shit... What the hell was that?"
"That was, in no uncertain terms, magic. First time?"
"Seeing it? No. Being hit by it? Yeah."
"Bad luck then. Most aren't hit by that level of magic until third or fourth batch, and don't survive it, wich brings me to the question, how did you? It shouldn't have been possible for someone so weak, and certainly not with all limbs intact, so, how did you do it?"
"Yes, of course, no clue."
"Pardon?"
"Not a clue, sir...?"
"Oh, oh! Of course! You do are new. I am Tathe, mage division. Now, i have been told you have pact making, right?"
"Yes, sir"
"Then concentrate on it and visualize yourself, think about who you are, what you can do, etcetera...."
"Yes,sir."

"Traits, traits... this is..."

Emergency Regeneration:
·Adds 'Change' stat to 'Regeneration' stat at the cost of 'Change' in bodily stats. Stat loss will be regained gradually upon deactivation.
·Adds 'Soul Energy' temporary resource at the cost of bodily stats. Stat loss will be regained by reinbursment of energy after deactivation.
"Hmmm... Yes, this must be why... interesting indeed, a rather useful trait given enough time to act, hm? Why that face? Let me guess, this is similar to some capability you had before you came home, am i right?"

"How... how is this here? I... don't have the body i did back then, do i?"
"No, you certainly don't, but the body you have now is constructed by your soul, so anything you feel subconsciously that you should have, you will have, within the limits of your power of course, so i suggest you make a couple tests and find out if you have any other surprises waiting. Use your vacation well."
"Yes, siWait. Vacation?"
"Huff. Yes, vacation, to all soldiers participating in this battle, we will call you again when it's over."
"Thank you, sir. Farewell, sir."
Vacation, vacation... what do people do with their free time?... Oh well, i guess i will just tour the place. Oh, my things, i have to get them back, are they even here anymore? Let's see, poncho... pretty damn singed, and my pants are now shorts but... meh, now crossbow... it has gone flying quite a way back, a bolt in the crossbow, two in my now-shorts, and there should be two more by the hill... oh shit, this one's broken, snapped from the middle... well, i guess i'm lucky everything else is okay and no one stole anything... Can things even be stolen from us? Are they soul-bonded or something? I guess that would make sense... if they have to stay as long as i stay they wouldn't steal them but can they be stolen while in hell?... Huh, things to consider, for sure.

8 201Broken Sky and Shattered Earth: Apocalypse Convergence
Participant in the Royal Road Writathon Challenge! (Updates sporadically) Wilfred had been thinking about ending it all, but then it all ended before he could.The apocalypse came in a matter of hours. Not from weather, not from nuclear strikes, but something far worse. Mankind lost its dominance over their own planet in a short afternoon, and now Wilfred is one of but a handful of survivors who must make sense of the catastrophic nightmare world that they once called their own.While the Earth is many things after the end, it is anything but the sole domain of humanity. As Wilfred and other survivors discover, their planet was not subject to just one world-ending event, but several. The undead roam the once proud metropolisis, and inhuman beasts stalk the countryside. The physical fabric of reality itself is twisted beyond repair in some places as unnatural distorions that warp physical laws appear across the landscape, and even a simple jog across an empty street can prove fatal to the unwary.The ones who died in the initial catastrophes never had to face the horrors that followed. And for Wilfred, a man who found no purpose in life before the apocalypse, what is there to be found after?

After an unexpected incident, a new era had begun in the world.
8 141Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)
