《Machinarium》Chapter 8: [Leveling up]

"Anyways, If we are to survive out here we will need to get stronger."
"Maybe, But im not going to kill things!" Bula said
"Ugh, Fine. Just stay here then."
"Fine. Maybe I WILL stay here!" Bula replied.
I roll back outside of my cave with alpha following, And I hear squeaking sounds.
"Huh? What is that?"
[It sounds like something that is living]
"I know that retard."
'Slow, Alpha. We don't want to alarm whatever that is.'
Alpha slows down and crouches to reduce chances of being found.
I slowly roll past the bush and i see a few hundred rabbits jumping around and feeding on the grass. One of the rabbits has giant sharp teeth and is feeding on another rabbit.
"What the fuck is that. Why is there a rabbit eating another rabbit?!"
[Its called survival of the fittest. Plus, this isn't your last world. Things arent "normal"]
'Alpha, sneak up to the cannibal rabbit and kill it'
Alpha begins to sneak through the bushes and gets up behind the cannibal rabbit. His sword extends and he stabs his sword into the cannibal rabbit, tearing open its skin and blood
flying everywhere. It shakes and twitches as it finally dies.
'Jesus, Did it have to be THAT brutal?'
'Anyways, Alpha, pick the rabbit up and let's go back home'
Alpha retracts his blade and grabs the rabbit by its ears.
'Hm, I'm going to have to add a basket to him sometime soon. This is too inefficient.'
We exit the bushes and begin to head back home.
'Hm, what should i do with this rabbit thing?'
[You can fuse items to your constructs using the upgrade menu. Doing so allows you to give your constructs magic or other useful items.]

The sun begins to shine in between the leaves as we finally make it back home.
'Alpha, Put the rabbit down.'
Alpha puts the rabbit's corpse down slowly, as not to damage it.
Bula walks up to the cannibal rabbit's corpse and says "Wait, Isn't this a killer rabbit? How did YOU kill it? Not even 3 orcs can kill it!"
"Well, as I said, I and my constructs are not organic. As such, I can fit many things inside of them. One of those things is this sword."
I queue alpha to extend his blade
"Wait, Where did that come from?" Bula says amazed
"It literally came from him. That's how he killed it."

The Ordinary Life of Tom Nobody
[participant in the 2018 NaNoWriMo Royal Road challenge] The Ordinary Life of Tom Nobody is a LitRPG system story where each person transitions into the system, or SCHEMA as this system is known, innocent and unaware of his former life. Following the tutorial, memories return, but by this point, each person has a better chance of accepting their new world. It also gives them an opportunity to start from scratch, fresh without all the baggage of their former lives dictating their decisions in the early stages of the process. I don’t expect this will necessarily turn into an action-packed heroic tale, my intent is to create a character who wants to have just an ordinary, but reasonably comfortable life. I don’t know myself how well he will succeed, there may be twists and Tom may discover some heroism hidden deep inside. I guess we’ll find out together. This is my first writing attempt. I’ve wanted to write all my life, but I’ve never been able to develop the proper discipline to put in the work. I hope I complete the challenge and work my way past this hump. I am writing this as part of the NaNoWriMo Royal Road Challenge. While I will try to self-edit as I go, the challenge requires close to 2,000 words a day, so parts of the story may be rough, and things like plot lines may not make as much sense as any of us would like. If all goes well, and I complete the challenge, I plan on going back through everything and trying to polish it up. In the meanwhile, thank you for reading and I hope I don’t disappoint.
