《Celestial Beings: Evolution》Stage 1: Fight Fight! II (Chapter 5)
Advertisement
Eloxus did what he planned. He charged the newborn fighting Aly, and punched him in the face. The impact wasn't as good as he thought it would've been, but it hit - that's all that mattered. Aly quickly saw this opportunity and used both her fists to jab him in the sides. He fell. He wasn't dead, but he was near. Again, although Eloxus was beyond tired, he needed this newborn to die. A fist landed. At this point the Io was on floor pretty much unconscious, but not dead. Aly hit him twice again, however she was hit for the first time, completely unexpected.
Aly was shoved across the floor. She didn't get up. She couldn't. She was on Death's Door.
[Io has been defeated!]

[Eloxus] is now Level Five!
[Eloxus] is now Level Six!
[Eloxus] is now Level Seven!
[Aly] is now Level Four!
[Aly] is now Level Five!
[Aly] is now Level Six!
Eloxus laughed to himself after looking at the Notifactions come through. He looked over to Aly, confused. She looked dead, yet she she hadn't shattered. He could only guess that she isn't dead.
However, this predicament was garbage - utter dogshit.
They had three options.
Run and get shot by Fire magic.
Fight 1 on 1 although Eloxus has exerted most of his energy.
Or die.
No matter what he did, there was going to be repercussions.
What do I do, it had been 20 seconds since Io died, and for some reason, his teammate didn't come forward, he also didn't shoot magic either which was beyond confusing.
Eloxus took this unexpected chance.

Still no Magic? What in the actual fuck? This is beyond stupid, I've done all this work for nothing. Wait a minute, where has that Green guy gone? He hasn't attacked me for some odd reason.
Eloxus stared at him, however, he didn't stare back, actually, he wasn't even looking into Eloxus's direction at all, if anything, he was looking the same way Eloxus was. Then a pair of eyes stared back.
Eloxus used his brain and ran for Aly. He was still tired as shit, but he needed Aly, without Aly he was practically nothing. He was unable to do anything on his own. He needed allies.
He grabbed onto Aly and swang her on his shoulder. She was light, almost too light. It didn't matter to him, instead it benefitted him in this instance.
He ran and ran, he wasn't even being chased. The terrain never changed. He was still in the disgustingly dry biome with the odd tree every now and then.
poof
He collapsed, and Aly went rolling off him.

I feel a tad stronger, and faster. It feels like I'll be able to run a marathon in a few minutes (hyperbole). It seems stat points are very important. Again, Wisdom has done literally nothing for me, yet a Celestial being wants me to upgrade it? I'm assuming it's linked to magic, although I haven't gotten a skill, like at all. She also wants me to upgrade it along side Agility? That's so strange, what a weird combination, I wonder what Eluxo upgrades, maybe he's an all rounder since it looks like he's gotten a tad bigger. Do you think that's why she's contacted me? Agility + Wisdom, I can't imagine many people upgrading those stats since they don't really go hand in hand. Honestly, Wisdoms quite an awkward thing to upgrade since it's doing literally nothing.
Is she colour blind? Is she aware of my colour? I don't understand. Am I really going to have a chance to be an Instrument? If so, how? I didn't really do much, I just struggled against someone and got knocked out in one hit, well, atleast I think I did?
How am I alive?
I got up and saw Eluxo, still laying down opposite me. He must've been the reason why I'm alive right? Also who took out the those two? They had fire magic and from my memory they didn't use it once. I have so many questions, yet I can't get them answered since I can't even speak!
I wonder what my Dad's doing, we were teleported together yet we were seperated from the get go, when the beautiful Princess was explaining our rules, my Dad was nowhere to be seen. I wonder if he's alive. I can only hope.
I woke up. We're alive. We made it. As I looked at the Notifications it seemed that the last newborn had died, which I'm glad since I got more Experiene. I would've felt bad, however they attacked us indiscriminately, so we had no choice. I didn't level up, although it feels like I'm on the cusp of levelling up, which is great. Also, the Levelling System is weird. It feels like I'm Levelling up very slowly in comparison to Aly, or maybe I'm imagining it. Most likely.
I looked at Aly, Aly looked at me. We both smiled. It's not like we could say anything, so we just walked. Unfortunately, I didn't realise by the time we got back there that we walked right back where we were. Right back where the crime scene happened. However, I still don't feel bad, I wouldn't be surprised that in their evolution they would've become Devils.
I couldn't even tell Aly that there was a creature here. So I nudged her to walk left instead of going that way, it may have been flat plain (although it's still the red sand to begin with) with a few small hills here and there, but in the distance, there were mountains. So I thought it would've been smarter to go around the mountains.

I'm an Alley Cat with a Status Screen
I'm a (not so) humble alley cat that found a portal to a fantasy world. The system immediately gave me self-awareness and taught me the meaning of words. Now I can't seem to find my way back to my old world, but that's ok, because this world allows me to become a fearsome predator by earning levels and skills. Follow my journey as I wage a bloody vendetta against the dog headed kobolds and any other dog-like creature I happen to enounter. Also, treats and chin scratches are used to bribe me into helping hapless cat eared people. Other adventures await! Warning: Gore tag is serious. People get eaten by monsters. Monsters get eaten too. Lots of blood. Not for the faint of heart. Cover Art by kgy121 of Experimental Wuxia Novel Disclaimer: The views portrayed by characters in this novel are not the author's own. I don't actually hate dogs.

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
