Chapter 8 – Stupid Decision
oOo
I got carried away from using *cause it was amazing*, that I didn’t notice how much time had passed. Now I feel hungry, better go for a hunt. * I wonder if there’s like a monster made from steak, or monster ice cream LOL. Maybe there’s another universe where all monsters are food, haha that’s a dumb idea but it’s more convenient ^^*
I’ve learned a lot of things from using the [Eragal Magic], it’s now level 3 and my Intelligence attribute and dexterity got some points for that. I even made a replica of myself, like a puppet I can move it but so much mana is required for it to even walk a meter. I just left it with the other statues that I made using magic.
A few more minutes of walking, I smelled something unpleasant. The odor was so disgusting similar to a dead rat, but being a curious monster that I was, I followed the smell and I end up at a swamp. There were green mist, and mossy dead trees, and some grass plants. *I’m sure this was the place, uuucckk will I encounter zombie here? The smell was now much stronger, the smell in this place were like dead rat, spoiled milk, rotting food, and other shitty smell.* Fuck this place.*
I went around the swamp to investigate *I am not going to that polluted shit swamp*, trees. . trees. . more trees and a big hill with holes?!? It’s like some kind of rabbit hill from cartoons when I was a child, ahhhh memories. .
Using [Eragal Magic] I sent a pebble to one of the hole. I waited about a minute but nothing came out, I sent another one and what do you know same result. This time I sent a huge rock the same size as my head. It entered the hole and I heard a loud noise.
*WOOOAAARR* *woooaaarrr* *wwooooooaaarrr*
With every second, the noises were becoming louder and louder, and seems like it was not coming from a single monster.
*WWWWOOOOOAAAARRRR*
A thing came out from the hole where I sent a rock, it was. . it was. . . it was one hell of an ugly demonic ass frog. It was so big even at a far distance; it has a round body, with two big eyes and more eyes all over the body. Its skin was yellowish green and was like a human flesh that was decaying. *so that’s why it smells in here* its legs were big and has web feet, there were even green and purple liquid coming out from its eyes. *I wish I don’t have a nightmare from this ugly ass frogs.*
Many more ugly frogs came out and were looking at the surroundings looking for something, *yup it’s probably me*. I was currently lying on the ground filled with rocks, this was a simple camouflage but the stupid frogs kept looking around.
A frog was coming closer at me, so used [Eragal Magic] and manipulated the rocks far from its side, and shoot it to the incoming frog. It was a rock that shaped like a spear, the stupid ass frog’s head was penetrated from the side. *it should have many eyes? Why didn’t it saw it coming?*
*Kuwak*
It made a weak sound and then falls to the ground. Some of its kind moved to the position where I fired the rock spear *I guess they’re not that stupid*, they are now on my far right with 3 ugly frog looking for the culprit. I used my magic and impaled them with another rock spear; they were now squirming and making irritating noises.

The other frogs came to help, but I made the spears grow thorns to finish them off. Four frogs down, and . .*one, two, three. . I forgot to count them.* another 15 more. I manage to gain 1 level from killing the four frogs; I stayed hidden and rest to regain some mana.
The frogs were now, shooting acids around the place where the spear came from but nothing. The dead trees were now melting; no it’s more like decaying on a fast phase. *is that poison? I want that, but I would never eat those frogs just to get that poison. Fuck those ugly frogs.*
My stomach was now killing me, *I’m so hungry right now.ughh!! Better kill those guys fast. I don’t want to eat them but, I want to see if I can kill all of them, for experience* Crawling near to the frogs on my right, the close distance will help me to reduce the consumption of mana. There were 5 frogs closed by so I tried to impale them, but I only got 3. The other 2 frogs were more cautious and they jumped high in the air, to evade being impaled by my rock spears.
From up above, they noticed my appearance and start shooting me with acid goop. I quickly dodge and returned them the favor with spears, being on midair was a disadvantage and a big mistake. The two frogs dropped dead, as the other frogs screams in anger.
Six frogs started to run towards me while the remaining four start spiting at me. *disgusting* I evaded the incoming goop, one at a time and using the spikes at my tail. I shot the inclosing frogs, they were getting pierced by my spikes, but it’s like they’re not receiving any damage.
*I guess I need to strike the heart or the head.* with the help of [Rock Armor] the spikes on my tail regenerated in time. I jumped to the side to evade another goop, while turning my body and whipping the two frogs in front of me with my tail. As my tail goes into their soft body, I felt a warm liquid sticking to my tail.
The two frogs came rolling to the ground. I move some distance to dodge again, and impale the other three frogs. Their heart and head was not pierced so I whipped them with my spear tail, *crack* one impaled frog down, *crash* and another, *brurrr* and another.? ?
I run away a couple of meter, and looked at my tail. The tip was missing, and it was starting to hurt, I looked at it and it was starting to rot. *shit this must be from the time I hit the first two frogs. Damned bastards!!* the last frog that came to me, jump so high, while spitting a bunch of acid saliva. *I don’t know what to call them, sorry* I was skipping side to side, and even jumped back using my tail. I used [Eragal Magic] and sent two rock spears, one to its body and another to its head. It kicked the first one on midair, but the other one pierced its shoulders. Some acid goop explodes from the impact to the ground and I got some off it on me. My rock armor was not decaying; it was my flesh, the fluid goes through the small gap of my scales and into my flesh, the rock armor on my tail were starting to fall off. *shit!!*

*BOOM*
I manipulated the rock spear to explode, another one dead, but some part of my body was in pain. The frogs from afar were not shooting any more acid goop, maybe because of the distance. I made a roar, *because it’s cool, just kidding.* but there was no effect, I was expecting them to get scared because I’ve killed a lot of them, but now they’re just jumping towards me very fast.
I used [Body Regeneration] but it was a failure, it only slowed down the process of decaying, my mana will not hold that long enough.
Using [Armor Manipulation] I made my claws a bit longer and sharper. I cannot use anymore magic, because all of my magic was only enough to maintain the use of [Body Regeneration]. The ugly damn frogs were getting closer, so I pounced on the first one, and strike its head with my claw. * I cannot escape now, damn it. I’m so stupid for making a decision to fight them*
Its head got sliced into two, and the lower part was hanging while flesh and blood comes out. Three more left, the two frogs jumped to my side, I moved back a little and when I looked at on one side, I felt a hot liquid covering half of my tail from the end. *shit they got me, that was fucking fast, dammit!!!*
Without any second thought, I rush toward the one in front of me, it was about to spit at me, but I moved to the side, and jump. I sliced its throat up the back of the head. It wasn’t dead but I’m sure that it can’t fight anymore.
*blluuuubb*
Another goop almost got me; my tail was hurting so bad I felt like being eaten alive. “You fucker I’m going to kill you!!” I know it cannot understand me, but I’m going to kill you slowly for payback. I started running, but it seems like the only attack it can use was the disgusting spit. This one was a bit faster in spiting, *maybe it was the strongest?* I can dodge the spit but some also grazed my body. I cannot bite them, because their bodily fluid was very dangerous, and I don’t know what will happen if my mouth starts to decay.
Using my tail to leap, I readied my claws and jump straight to its head. The feeling of slicing a soft meat was so satisfying; its eyes were sliced in half as my other claw pierced its head.
*splash*
Uuuggghhh!!! *shit! Shit! Shit!* I forgot the other frog, it was the one very far away and I forgot about him. It got me from my side, and my body was starting to tremble. *stupid ugly ass frogs!* it came in front of me and kicked my left eye.
Uuuughhhh!! The pain is so excruciating, tears fall from my good eye. Its foot got wounded by my spike and horn that it made its foot bleed, its blood got to my eye. Ahhh fuck! Fuck! FUUUCCCCKKKK!!
It hopped to my back, and started stomping on me like an insect. *ugh* *ugh* I’m getting weak, but I can’t end up like this. Gathering my strength into my tail, I whip it into its back.
*SMACK*
It was thrown in front of me; its back was bleeding severely from the small spiked at my tail. It’s now getting harder to breathe as my rib was hurting and starting to decay. The frogs starts moving, *ughh!! Just die, just die, don’t get up.* it was slowly and hardly trying to get up, I also tried the same thing but my strength was escaping away. *IF I FUCKING DIE HERE, IT WILL BE OVER!! I WILL BE NOTHING. I WANT TO GET STRONGER AND GET OUT OF THIS FUCKING HELL!!! UUUUGGGHHHH!!!!*
Mustering all of my strength, I tried my best to even stand up. I didn’t notice that the frog was now looking at me, while smiling while blood was flowing out of its mouth. *you creepy shit, that smile gives me goose bumps. FUCK YOU!!* his stomach was bulging and purple goop starts to flow from its mouth.
*pant* pant*
Pushing myself to the limit, I took a step forward. Just moving a muscle was so painful, but I continued and took another step, and another, becoming faster and faster until I ran.
His stomach was so big; it feels like it would explo. . *shit was it going to commit suicide? Fuck, I need to stop!!* but my body was not listening to me anymore, It just keeps on running on its own.
Then its stomach stopped from getting any bigger, he looked at me with a devilish eyes and opened its mouth where a burst of purple goop came out. *so it was trying to drown me with a large amount of saliva? Don’t fucking vomit on me, fucker!* Turning back was impossible, and everything was slowing down. I closed my eye and scream while pushing myself. *if my theory was correct, I might survive this.*
“AAAAHHHHH!!!!!” Charging towards the frog, I’m getting devoured by the large amount of goop, my body was melting, but with all of my remaining straight. I stepped to the side, and with my half tail, I pushed myself to its limit and used the tail to leap and point my horns at it.
“AAAAHHHHH!!! Die!!!”
.
.
.
.
*tud* *tud*
Our body collapsed to the ground, I was lucky enough to pierce its soft body. Every part of my body was in an intense pain, I even swallowed some disgusting goop, but I don’t even have the strength to move. I just want to rest, “uuuggghhh, my HP is reducing rapidly, I don’t have any more mana to maintain [Body Regeneration].

The Girl Named Rino
Oh. Hello. I didn't see you come in. No, don't worry. I don't need to hear your name. I already know what it is. I also knew that you'd come up at around this time. But, at the same time, I also didn't know. It's very hard to put into words - but that's what happens when you become the Chaos God. Your psyche gets messed up, big time. That's even more so for me, who was already warped enough to confuse reality with imagination - and, even make the rest of the universe believe that it was so. But, enough about me. Let's talk about you. You seem to come from a very far away land. It's faint, but your presence is there - in a relatively primitive planet. No wonder, no one wanted to stay in, or conquer your region of the universe - there's nothing worth controlling there. Your existence, much like your entire solar system, also seems to be pretty insignificant. Tell me, is your race capable of destroying your own world? Oh, you're already well along the way? Global Warming? Pollution? Overpopulation? Nuclear weapons? Wow... it's been many millenia since I'd last heard of such ancient concepts from someone who is actually living through it. Still, good job getting that far. That means that your world is now, at least, worth considering as a possible place to install a World System. If I find the time, I'll try surveying it. You can just thank me, later. Oh wait! What kind of person am I, not even offering my guest any hospitality. I'm ashamed. Please, take a seat. What would you like? I have everything the multiverse has to offer, whatever it is you want - I can get. Ah! After we talk, would you mind, if I asked you to do me a tiny favor? There's this girl, I want to keep tabs on. She's in one of the Worlds that I preside over, it's called Aiarthe. But, for some reason, I can't see her - not directly, at least. All I need you to do, is check up on her from time to time. Whether you do it as a pure spectator or through someone else's eyes, is entirely up to you. Really!? You would!? Wow! Thanks! You really did me, a huge solid there! For agreeing so quickly, how about I get started on surveying that planet of yours, right now!? You can help yourself, to anything in the fridge! Well, see ya!

Majority Rule
Readers choose from a selection of options for participants of a survival game show known as "Can Anyone Beat Level 10?". Each level has some monsters to kill and a boss at the end. Treasure chests and traps are available. Treasure chests, if opened successfully, give decent weapons, first aid kits, etc. If unsuccessful, treasure chests will either explode, taking some health from player or do become permanently closed. Monsters in dungeon levels depend on the theme of the week. This game show occurs on the first week of every month. The game just showed up out of nowhere and many people were interested in it as they attended the live version of the show. As for its mysteries...well, who knows? Maybe someone will solve them some day. But, for now, let the games begin! This is a story that depends on the votes of the viewers using the poll system. I will probably wait a week or so per poll in order to accumulate enough votes. After the week is up, viewers can still vote but it won't affect the story. This is my first interactive fiction so it might not be on par with the better ones. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoyed reading this story. Thanks.
