《Necromancy Domination》Chapter 6 — Humans are Humans.
Advertisement
Leon was looking around the settlement; mainly the largest hut, which supposedly belonged to the leader of the Orcs. Every Hut was gross by itself, with human remains and other creatures as accessories and decoration but the leader's hut takes the cake.
It was painted red, obviously blood. There were rotting intestines circling the top and one table was filled with skulls. There were skulls that were used as a candle holder and there were bones used for God knows what. However, there was one thing that stood out from the rest, a bracelet that was weirdly clean. It was shining in a room full of filth, and in the middle of the bracelet was a red jewel.
"An item?"
Leon wore it around his left-hand and he felt weird; he felt stronger. He opened his status for the second time to check what was going on.

______________________
Leon realized there was a [plus five] on his strength; it must've been the bracelet. He leveled up two times and he didn't even knew it. It looks like this kind of system doesn't bother telling you what you achieved.
"Thank God it doesn't have to. Imagine in the middle of a battle and a screen pops up in your face."
Leon seemed to leveled both of his skills, which means his understanding of the Way of The Sword has now leveled up. The Necromancy, however; he has still difficulty on understanding on the nature of Necromancy. Yes, it resurrects the dead but is that all there is?

"There is one I noticed tho."
Earlier in the fight with the Orcs, Leon saw one of the sparrows gets crushed from one of the Orc's attacks but looking at the numbers; no sparrows died.
"So that means."
A sparrow came out from his body and landed on the hand that Leon opened. He took the dagger from his scabbard and with a simple slice through the neck; the head came falling down to the ground. In just seconds, the head turned to ash and the sparrow was still standing, like nothing happened. Little by little, a muscular-tissue like substance came out from the wound and formed into a head.
The sparrow was healed to the very speck of his injuries and with that; it returned to normal.
"It regenerates, and it's really fast too."
With this discovery, Leon can have new strategies in the future for him to use.
"But they should be back by now."
"Kwaaaah!"
Sparrows returned from the sky as they returned to Leon's body. The visions of the sparrows gave out a location the Orc's was trying to hide; and it must be were the remaining humans are.
Those sparrows was the birds that followed the human earlier from the fight with the Orcs. Leon was using counter measures if those monsters would ever find out someone was trying to find their hidden stashes of human flesh but Leon was simply over-thinking. However, it would be a good Flanking Strategy in the future.
"Let's go, shall we?"
Leon found the location, which looked like a cave. There was no one guarding it; which seemed strange so Leon ordered the sparrows to navigate the cave. While laying his guard down; he heard the leaves make a sound as someone with a knife was flying into him.

"What the—!"
Leon covered his face with his hands; closing his eyes in the process. Leon realized that after covering it in a certain amount of time; the bandit that jumped to him didn't touch him at all.
Leon opened his eyes to see the human he resurrected holding the bandit by the head. The bandit was struggling to get out as he smashed the undead in his fist as the undead crushed his head with his bare hands; causing guts and blood to spurt all over.
"You know, I should name you something... Like Agris."
Leon muttered as he was amazed by the vanguard Agris just executed; he never forgot the first command that Leon said while he was still at town. To kill if an intruder was to be of threat.
"You deserve that name."
Leon said as he looked at the bandit-looking human. Now, Leon was suspicious; if these bandits cooperated with Orcs to capture woman. Maybe for slavery.
The sparrows came back from the cave to Leon's body; giving Leon an exact visual map on the cave. Leon was angry as he found Humans and Orcs hanging down as the townspeople was in a jail or cage of some sort. His blood lust seemed to have peeked.
"Agris, massacre those fuckers."
Leon said in a calm tone. He bowed his head as he bit his lips; just to stay sane before his anger controls him. He couldn't think that humans would kill humans just for their own greed but thinking in the previous world. It was all the same. Leon thought he was transported in an another world but in reality; he's just in the same world but with different rules.
In just a matter of minutes, Leon heard the shouts of Orcs and the screams of the bandits. Leon; in this time, lost his forgiveness for humanity. He always hated this kind of people and hated humans has which is called being human. Why does human have to be so human? Why can't they be like other creatures that follows the rules of nature? Why do they have to be so greedy.
Yet, Leon smiled.
"But ain't I the same?"

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
