《The Returner’s One Millionth Life》Chapter !%@ - The Red Liquid
Advertisement
'It's dark,' you think to yourself as you sweep your eyes across the room covered in darkness.
You try to remember how you got here but-
"All you remember is clicking on a chapter of a web novel before you got here, yeah yeah we get it so buzz off," a man suddenly says in the darkness confusing you with what he is talking about.
"Well if you didn't take a month to write this I wouldn't be inturupting," the man comments while light slowly enters your vision allowing you to see your surroundings
"Aaw, I was hoping to keep them in the dark a bit longer," you hear as you notice a man sitting across the table at you.
The man in front of you has a grotesque appearance, more of akin to that of an orc than a-
"Hey stop giving them the wrong description," the man roars at no one making you think that he is quite insane.
"Shut up," the man once again shouts into thin air, "If you don't correctly describe me correctly I'll leave."
After hearing the man's pathetic wimpering you begin to blink in suprise as the once orcish man quickly turned into a beautiful man shaming even most supermodels.
The man was about 7 and a half feet tall with long auburn-blonde hair that came all the way down to his waist, his beautiful jade eyes prominatly standing out on his bronze skin, and as your eyes moved down you saw his rippling muscles on full display on account of him not wearing a shirt.
Also, you note, because fo the large table you cannot see the man's legs, not allowing you to tell if he is wearing pants or not.
"I am wearing pants thank you very much," ejaculated the exhibitionist.
"Oh, shut up," the exhibitionist grumbled.
"Anyways don't you have more to describe," the exhibitionist says as he tries to change the topic.
Turning your attention away from the man, you begin to look around the spacious room, while looking around you notice numerous pillars all evenly spaced out, as you try to look past the pillars you notice the fact that there are no walls visible in the room.
Looking back at the table you notice the man smiling at you while he sips some sort of red liquid out of a glass.

"So are you done looking around now," the man asks, but before allowing you to answer he continues, "I guess you want to know what's going on here, huh?"
After saying that the man empties his glass and puts it on the table and continues to speak while you watch the glass fill up with liquid, "Now I can only reveal a bit for now because of a certain stick in the mud that doesn't like spoilers."
Seemingly thinking about what he should say next the man picked up the glass and brought it to his lips before it suddenly turned into sand, making the man quite litteraly eat sand.
Annoyed the man lowered the glass now full of sand before it once again turned into the strange liquid it was before.
With a sigh the man looked at you and began to speak while the glass disappeared, "Well for now I guess I should introduce myself, you may call me Bubba and I am-"
Suddenly you see a cloud of dust form in front of you and as the dust settles you see the man holding a giant sword by the blade and glaring in the direction of the hilt of the blade. The blade, you notice, has a double helix design with a beautiful snowy white blade with intricate ruby red symbols carved all the way down the blade, while the guard is shaped like a cresent moon with the hilt ending in a teardrop shaped teal jewel.
The blade alone reached about 6 feet which made the sword seem large even in the giant man's gorilla sized fists.
Looking extremely pissed the man growled into the air, "Unlike a certain someone I can still die when I'm killed, so stop throwing your sword at me," the man finished saying as he hurled the extremely heavy looking sword in the distance with relative ease.
"Since mister Lunar Blade here is getting his britches in a bunch about me using his nickname I guess you can just call me The GM instead," the man says turning back to you before taking a sip out of the glass that reappeared on the table at some point.
"As you may have guessed I am the game master, or the guy in charge of the monsters if you're so inclined.

"And mister short tempered over there is what we up here call the orginator, but that isn't really all that imprtant to you," Orcface finished explaining.
With slight annoyance flashing across his face for a brief moment he continued to speak after taking another sip, "The reason I am here talking to you is to maybe answer some questions and also clear up some things mister whinny britches did a bad job explaining.
"But since a certain someone takes so long to write a single chapter it has yet to be seen if I will make a return in your lifetime," the man prattled on before taking a break to once again take a sip of the liquid that imediatly turned into sand.
With a mouthful of sand the man once again disappeared the cup and quickly glared of into the distance before turning back to you and continued explaining, "So for now I will talk about the magic and skills begining with magic.
"In this world there is two types of mana, mana inside the body, which is typically known as life force and is the thing that keeps living things, well, living, and then you have the mana in the atmosphere, which is commonly known as nature mana.
"Typically mana is a sort of limiting factor on how much magic one can use, however, in real life it is possible to use magic infinitely as long as there is mana in the air, while it is also possible to use the mana inside your body it is often frowned upon because while your life force mana is easier to manipulate than the nature mana it is also your life force and as such using it will decrease your life span and in extreme cases kill you out right.
"However, even if it is true that it is theoretically possible to use magic infinetly because of no restrictions on the mana consumption, magic is extremely mentally draining becasue of the complex formations used in order to use advanced magic which you have to hold together with your mind while also drawing mana in to power the darn thing.
"Now spells are not normally needed inorder to use the natural mana but spells are what gives natural mana it's attribute. Naturally it is also possible to use the already elemental mana from sources directly, however, usually except for wind you will not have a constant supply of said resource inorder to get the naturally occuring elemental mana so normally magicians would have to first learn how to change the property of mana using a spell befoe they learn advance techniques."
The man finished his explanation and went to pick up a cup that is no longer there and looking annoyed he looked up at you and continued talking, "Normal skills and advanced skills are both have three levels; high, medium, and low. Naturally most advanced skills are upgraded forms of normal skills but there are a few that are advanced skills normally. There are also three types of unique skills but for now that is unimportant.
Finished talking the man reached down for the cup that had just reappeared, and as he went to take a sip when it suddenly shattered spraying the red liquid everywhere.
Being thourghly drenched by the red liquid, the man pulls a towel out of nowhere before wiping his face with it while looking throughly pissed.
After finishing with the towel he puts it back into nowhere and waves his hand at the shards of the glasss scattered all over the place which immediatly began to piece itself back together like some sort of three dee puzzle.
"My magic doesn't look anything like a 3D puzzle," the man snapped at no one, "And why did you say three dee so wierd, and don't make me say it too."
"Anyways," the man says looking back at you and immediatly you are surrounded in the same blackness as when you first arrived and kept talking, "My job is done so I'm gonna end this chat here or else that fool will take another month to release this chapter."
Upon hearing those words of the man you consciousness began to black out but not before hearing the shattering of glass once again and hearing the man shout angrily into the air.
