《I reincarnated as a Hive Mind Slime》Chapter 1
Advertisement
Hello there people or person of the Void or what ever you are, it is me the soul you told that it would be reincarnated, but didn’t.
At least I don’t think you reincarnated me because I am quiet sure reincarnation means I would live again, and I don’t think I do.
Now don’t get me wrong I appreciate that you give me a second life, even if I don’t get to keep my “subjective” memories(what does that even mean), but could you please do whatever you are doing a bit faster, being a formless soul is making me feel weird and wrong, not that I have a body that could feel weird.
It’s just that keeping still is seemingly impossible as my soul keeps drifting in all directions like a gas, and every time I draw myself back into one place it feels as if somthing has changed I think I’m not putting everything back at the right place and I don’t know what will happen because of that.
So please any update on what’s happening?
... ... …

Ok that’s a lot.
I’ll start on the top left and work my way to the bottom right why?
Because I think it fells right, that’s why.
So first Name and then blank I guess I don’t have a name.
Well maybe me getting my status means I will be reincarnated soon, maybe getting born gives me a name?
I think there was somthing like that.
So second Body Vocation.
Why is there a none next to it?
Why isn’t there a blank like with my name?
And most importently what does Body Vocation mean? What has it to do with my body does the status explain itself?

Body Vocation
A temporary physical alteration, for specialization, of one Body.
Ok I guess that explains some things but I still have many questions.
Like how temporary? Is there a time limit?
Well I guess the system awnsers some questions.
Maby I have to ask less question if I have seen my whole status.
So I’ll glance over my status and then ask questions again.
… … …
Well I certainly have more questions now but let’s restart were I left of, system what’s a type.
Type
Different categoris in wich living beings belong based on shared traits among them.
Ok then what’s a Monster?
Monster
A type of living creature all of them have a core in wich they store their magic energy. All monsters posses the skill evolution.
Ok thanks system, now what’s the skill Evolution?
… … …
Hello? Ok whats a magic core?
… … …
So no answer to thing not on the front of my status?
Ok next what’s a level?
Level
Granted by a Leveling skill it displays your current level.
Rather easy to understand I am level 0 because I haven’t used my Leveling skill yet.
Now what does body’s mean?
Bodies
Displays the current and the maximum number of Bodies
Now what is Bio Mass?
Bio Mass
Any mass assimilate into the user by a consumtion type skill.
Displays the current and the maximum number of Bio Mass.
Now this will be a lot.
Ok what’s ATK?
ATK
The amount of physical damage you can deal by using force, sharp parts of the body or body produced substances such as acid or poison.
Ok not quite what I expected but now I know.
What’s INT?
INT
Your summised cognitive capability. A high INT can mean very different things dependent on the specialization of the individual. In a Researcher it might improve logical thinking, creativity and memory but in a soldier it might improve motor funktions, reaction speed or interpretation of senses.
Well some parts I understand but some… not so much.
CORE DEF?
CORE DEF
Because of the huge importance of the core in your species and with how exposed it is the DEF of the Core is listed separately please refer to DEF.
Advertisement
Ok thanks for the extra info and non explanation of that stat.
But now I wonder, why would my core be exposed if it’s so importand, has it to do with the liquid body skill is my that why my DEF is 0?
Ok enough of that so what does DEF actually mean?
DEF
The amount by wich you can ignore/reduce damage dealt to you.
Might not apply everywhere on body if the body isn’t uniformly hardened.
SPEED?
SPEED
How fast you can move.
(Doesn’t help with perceiving things fast)
MAGI?
MAGI
Indicates your Magic Power and the amount of Mana you can hold.
HP?
HP
The amount of life force in your body.
High HP can’t prevent wounds but makes wounds inflicted shallower.
High HP doesn’t help heal wounds but helps you survive wounds others couldn’t.
Now a big one what is a Skill?
Skill
A system aided ability.
Well that raises the question what the system is and why does it help?
…
Well next what is Liquid Body.
Liquid Body
A part or all of your body is liquid this skill allows to control that liquid at will.
That seems pretty good, I have a part of me that can’t really be hurt and that i can send to attack somthing at will, helps if I have to defend myself.
What is Self Duplication
Self Duplication
The ability to create an exact copy of your body by consuming Bio Mass
I guess that explains what Bio Mass is for, at least one of its uses and I have a suspicion that the next skill has somthing to do with this one and that Bodyies part from before.
But I’m getting ahead of myself.
What is High Hive Mind?
High Hive Mind
Your consciousness is shared across multible Bodyies it is as if you were controlling all of them at the same time since information between the Bodyies and the Hive Mind is exchanged instantly.
A Higher Hive Mind is detached from its bodies, because of that all bodies inside of it are equal and no body is a true or main body.
Well seems being able to attack safely with Liquid Body isn’t that important after all, as long as I don’t lose all my Bodies, I will be fine.
But again I shouldn’t get ahead of myself.
I only have 1 Body for now I don’t know when I will get another.
And now that I think of it it’s kind of strange that it say that I have a body because I am still here in the Void, hopefully that changes soon.
So what does Acid (Low) mean?
Acid (Low)
Your body is (weakly) Acidic.
My whole Body?
Not just the liquid parts?
Well I guess it doesn’t matter.
Gluttony Leveling?
Gluttony Leveling
A being with the ability to gain levels has inherited the power of Gluttony to strengthen itself by consuming.
Levels are earned by consuming Bio Mass.
Extra stats and ability are earned based on what is consumed.
Another use for Bio Mass, no extra comment.
Vocation?
Vocation
Two skill that could be held by a single being but were never meant to be combined have been fused and the resulting conflicting energy’s have been separated into two new skills.
Keeping the aspects of physicly changing the user from evolution and classes a Vocation changes the body to suite to type of Vocation selected.
Vocations are gained instead of evolutions.
Because of the nature of classes Vocations aren’t permanent.
Vocation Archive?
Vocation Archive
Two skill that could be held by a single being but were never meant to be combined have been fused and the resulting conflicting energy’s have been separated into two new skills.
This skill let’s you duplicate and reuse previous Vocations.
It also allows you to refine the the absorbed essence from consumed matter.
Well I guess that all the Information I’m going to get for now.
I guess now I don’t have anything better to do than think abo……..
Wait were is the unending darkness of the Void.
My body doesn’t feel gassy anymore but Liquid?
More liquid than I would have thought.
So I’m in a forest, an wait what am I?
Am I a slime?

Paladin
When the first derelict alien spacecraft fell to Earth, humanity took what was found in it and propelled themselves to new heights. In their new Golden Age, humanity developed technology that they had only dreamed about. The following years saw hundreds more ships crash into the planet, spurring even greater technological leaps. An unassuming spacecraft, one of the dozens that fell yearly, descended on Siberia in 2021. The world took no particular notice of it. However, this one contained something beyond the miraculous technology that had made humans so prosperous. Three years later, in a top-secret underground facility in eastern Colorado, the automated construction of an army of Paladin Mobile Infantry Suits was underway. With this new, state-of-the-art weaponry, the military would turn the tide against the alien incursion that was consuming the planet. Humanity fell before that could happen. Sam was an engineer responsible for overseeing the facility. Now alone, he lives in utter boredom and near insanity, his only company the base’s pseudo AI and an army of empty Paladins. With the world gone to hell around him, and the things that caused it still living above, he decides that he is much better off staying exactly where he is. Unfortunately for him, that is no longer an option. This is the first novel I've written. The first fifteen or so chapters are going to be a little slower. I want there to be time to get to know the characters before they start blowing stuff up. Also, though the MC will be strong relative to the world, he won't be OP, and won't win every fight. Not every fight will be physical either. Currently, I'm aiming for something like 5 fairly short chapters a week, after the introduction part is done, but we'll see how that goes. Thanks for reading, and please let me know if I've made mistakes!

All the sudden I have a splitting headache and I’m trying not to show it because I don’t have sick time and I don’t want to go home sick and lose money. Suddenly a screen comes up but it just looks like floating text. It says Welcome to the System. Hell I read at least 5 novels a week that start that way so I’m like hell yeah so worth the headache. I’m over here saying status and character screen and anything else I can think of to bring up my stats and it doesn’t do shit…. 15 minutes later I get a message that says loading…..

Samael was a half human-half demon which is a result of a human experiment. He somehow did not lose his sanity unlike other test subjects, and the Devil jewel shard infused miraculously. He escaped with the help of the jewel’s power and was on the run. The kingdom has issued a huge bounty over the last remaining test subject, to be retrieved dead or alive.

Fall of Jupiter
What happens when the most powerful man in the world loses his soulmate to a heart attack? What happens when an innocent woman is dragged into a world of magic, and superheroes? Who is the true hero of the story? Note: This is the first book I ever wrote seriously. (I even had a cover made before I decided against publishing it) I'd like to think my writing style has improved with practice, and the multiple other books I've worked on. It felt wrong to leave a nearly completed book gathering dust in my google docs, but I don't think it's good enough to be officially published. As a result, I'm putting it here instead where it at least won't be totally wasted. Eventually, I'll put in the last 10 hours or so to finish it for you guys. Hope you like it :)
