《The undead who yearned for life》33-The ancestor's notes
Advertisement
Note from the author: in the previous chapter, I added a quirk to the that I had forgotten but is the reason for the name of the race, so just go to re-read it fast, I corrected both the tables.
Regarding the MC not wanting to kill for blood I want to say: it's not like he doesn't have the mindset to kill, it's just that who would want to be disturbed in the middle of the night by a sudden need for blood?
Ah, this will also be said by the MC later in the story, but I'll say it before: he does have the Defier of fate skill, that protect his mind from altered mindsets; I know some men can be dickheads, but c'mon, not all of us are like that.
A friend of the author: yes, sure, and who was that turned his head to look at that chick ass yesterday?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before I could even notice it, four days passed; getting used to a body countless times more powerful that the one you just had is difficult, if then you add the fact that I changed race three times in a short time, one of which I completely abandoned my old body... it was difficult, veeery difficult.
In the beginning I planned to use my dimension, but I soon understood something: no matter how much I train myself in there, the muscle... bones memory doesn't change, so I would continue to feel awkard in my own body, the only way remaining was to train in the other side of the dimension.
This being said, the forest that I used for training my agility once I was able to run straight is now a plain. The reason? As one can image it was me, in the beggining I was like someone who never drived a ferrari: once I started running, by the time I understood what was happening, I was already on the other side of the forest.

True, I bulldozed right through everything, so I have some confidence in my strength, but if I can't even avoid a tree, isn't it just sad? At the end of the fourth day, the forest became a plain, but I managed to control my own body.
After two hours of regrowing the trees (my plant control skill leveled up three times) I finally exited from my dimension; fortunately the mansion still wasn't invaded by the undeads, I intend to search every room for the notes that the ancestor left, this way I'll have an idea on what to expect in all the remaining circles of Hell.
While searching in the rooms, I found the wardrobe of the ancestor, but apart for one suit, all the others were useless; after replacing the shoes with a pair of boots, I must admit that I looked quite badass in the mirror (http://imgur.com/6BCmoN4).
While searching, I started to undermine the foundations of the manor, so that later with only a single blow, I'll be able to completely destroy it... I always wanted to destroy a house with a punch, this will be the upgraded version of it on my .
Good thing is, even though my senses are now limited to twenty meters (it raised when I evolved twice), I can sense literally everything in the various rooms, I also obtained some weapons: a sword, a alberth, a bow, a dagger and a scythe, but they're nothing really impressive.
Once I get a body, I plan on showing to this world what a weapon really is; between my knowledge and the one the Earth Goddess passed me, I'm sure that after a few tries, I'll be able to come up with the best weapon ever existed.
After a day, I found the notes left behind by the ancestor, in them there is a brief explanation for every circle of Hell from the 1st to the 7th, in the notes there are also the description of various and where to find them... it seems I just gained my target list, but first I need to hit level one hundred again.

After reading the informations, I just burned the notes; in the end the various circles all have their respective trials in them that one needs to pass in order to reach the next circle, however from the 5th circle to the 9th circle, all undeads are mindless, so very rarely an undead pass the trial, while from the 4th circle until the 1st is the place where intelligent undeads gather.
In each layer there is are some thing, but I narrowed that down to only three or four undeads that I really need to visit.
All in all, I would say that meeting this ancestor was a blessing in disguise, but it's time to move on... ah, now that I think about it, after I pass this circle, I will need to upgrade the God od the Underworld castle; I wonder if the offer for the way to master neutral magic is the payment for hastening me to work or it replaces the reward.
Mmm... thinking about it, the system did not change the reward for the quest... should I try my luck and cheat a God? Though there could be consequences, is he not the God? As a Dark God shouldn't one of his aspects be trickery? Ah, talking about it, how many Gods there are? It would be better to ask about it to the Earth Goddess, but how should I lure her?
Too many problems, let's not think about it, for now I should concentrate on destroying this manor. I neared the entrance of the manor and created some stairs until I was in the middle of the external wall, then I used the elemental claws skill with concentrated fire mana, adding explosion damage, then I punched.
Because of your body, the skill Elemental claws evolved in the skill Elemental blow.
The manor was blown up. There isn't a better way to describe it. I think that even if I hadn't damaged the foundation, with the power of my punch I would be able to blow up all this whole manor.
I may have underestimated my newfound power, I need to go over all my skills that use my physical stats to determine the damage and try them all, else I might use a gun to kill a fly... more like a rocket launcher to kill a fly.
After coming down to the ground, I decided to try using the skill Elemental charge... the result was me killing effortlessly thousands upon thousands of undeads, and because I was using the scythe I must have been resembled the reaper... if only I could take a video, it would've been epic.
While in the 7th circle, I tried every skill I possess, so that I could understand how much things changed... the skill that changed the most was the stealth skill, I can now walk in front of them and not even one undead is able to see me, it's like I don't exist anymore when using that skill, and its mastery level is low.
I'm beginning to fear this skill, I need to upgrade my senses fast, or someone else more skilled could easily kill me when I least aspect.
In the end, while slaughtering my way out I ended my stay in the 7th circle, it's now time to go to the 6th circle, the volcanic layer.

The Casual
Notice: On hiatus. *profanity tag added just in case a bit of swearing is required, but I'll try to keep it as profanity-lite as possible* RealWorldIII came with the motto "Bringing the imagination back into the gaming" with an innovative skill combination system that promises to create unique (see: not-actually-unique) characters tailored to each player's preferences (see: we-swear-it's-not-random) Alex is a random guy with the motto "Well... whatever" with a history of being at the top of the gaming scene (see: he was a kid back then) that after twenty years of working for daily necessities finds himself facing a tough dilemma: do I go back to being a corporate slave, or do I gain money by playing a game no questions asked? (see: not really a dilemma) The only question is, can an actual "casual", even if ex-pro, survive constantly playing a game? or will he end banging his head on the wall? The story will unfold mainly in-game, with little if any real life events happening.

The Guild
The world is broken. The apocalypse came and went, and only a fragment of humanity is left, scrambled into an unrecognizable mess. The remainders of the earth are filled with monsters from imagination and worse. Gates open periodically, leading to alien worlds, while dungeons form from damaged minds, creating nightmares for the unsuspecting. Some might see it as the end times. A hellscape. A story of humans pushed to their breaking points, desperately grasping for the last bits of humanity as the world crumbles around them. But a few might disagree. One man, in particular, sees opportunity. A chance. A path forward, to bring humanity from the depths of despair and turn it into a victory - a luxury. To remake the world even better than it was, dragging earth forward onto the galactic stage. It will require violence, lies, betrayals, magic, more violence, and the occasional genocide. But, hey. Everything worth doing is hard, right?
