Chereads / Rise of The Crimson Empire! / Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

Well what do I say? I guess I'll start with... well I don't know where I am and or the things that are around me. What do I mean by this you say? Well I woke up in what I assume to be a cave with nothing but this weird moss like thing on the walls that emits a light green glow.

But the next strange thing is that although there is some light I can still see perfectly fine as if I was outside when it was midday. That's not normal from what I know. Well there's also this that's strange but I guess the biggest question is, is this not the after life or hell? I guess I should have probably listened to that voice before I forced my self into a state or unconsciousness.

Anyway I guess I should get up and look around to get my bearings to figure out my next actions. Hmmm from what I can tell I'm at the bottoms of the cave and there is only one way to go to I guess I'll go and check it out. As I continued to climb higher and higher at least I believe I was climbing up the sound of running water entered my ears.

Hearing this I picked up my pace and fairly quickly saw sunlight at the end of the cave, or the entrance of the cave? Well doesn't matter as long as I get out. As I neared the entrance I peeked out to see a river and a lush green forest in my view. What peeked my interest though was the strange green creature that stood in the shallow part of the river with a sharpened stick. It was I assume trying to get a fish and not paying attention to me.

As I focused more on the creature a screen popped up scaring the s**t out of me but I quickly calmed myself. As I read the screen I came to know that the creature was called a goblin and was under the category of monster ranked F. I had known what a goblin was from the games I have played in the past I just didn't process that it could have been one.

Wait what do you mean how could I have know what it was when I was essentially a slave to the organisation? I was still given some money I'll have you know hmph. Anyways back on track from what I know they were one of the weakest monsters and if I could kill it maybe I could gain exp? Well let's give it a try won't hurt to not kill it an not gain anything.

Saying this I picked up a sharp rock and quietly made my way to the back of the goblin. What I fount strange was that it was a lot easier than before to sneak about. Is this something normal or just me? Well never mind that I was now right behind the goblin so I used the rock to hit it right on the back of the neck breaking it and killing it instantly. That was a lot easier than I though it would be.

After I had done this that voice appeared in my head again notifying me of what I had done and earned. 'Host has killed for the first time allowing the system to download and sync with the host. Downloading progress 1% ... 23%... 64%... 89%... 100% download complete, hello host'

What the f**k is with that download speed?! If only I had that in the past I mean living in a cheap room in London and trying to download my games like that was not fun. Anyway can this system hear me? Or is it just a thing that going to just randomly pop up and give me information that will be relevant to what I just did?

'No host, I am here to assist you in anything you wish to do. I can help you get stronger and doing so will allow you to live your new life happily to how you wish. That is my main purpose and by killing that goblin you have unlocked some new function I suggest you try saying status.'

Well I guess that answers my question so I guess I should do what it says? Well not like I wasn't going to try saying something like status anyways.

With that said a said status and this is what popped up:

Wow wasn't expecting that to say the least. Isn't that a bit much for level 1? I mean 5000 hp and mp isn't that quite high? Also what's with the skills? They seem quite op in their own right and it even seems some skills from my other life passed over. And now with this enhanced quick learner I can even remember how to make ketchup which I had read up on once out of pure curiosity. This will come in handy hehehe.

After I had further checked out my stats the voice that I am now naming Amy in remembrance of my one and only friend from my last life explained more about the stats. She explained how the max value for my stats in twenty and how I am very much stronger than a human and could easily kill many of them. Not something many people would want to hear but I don't really care.

She also explained how I am unique in both ability and skills. I am able to improve my stats to the max that would normally be impossible and I am able to gain skills either by drinking blood for a chance to learn or later when I am able to access it in the shop. The shop will allow me to be able to buy many things and I will even be able to upgrade my self to allow for more power later.

Also when I killed that goblin from before I had also gained some money that can be used in the shop or taken out of my inventory to use as actual currency in cities and so on. Apparently there is only one form of currency used across the whole planet that all races agreed upon to allow for better trade and monetary problems to become easier between each country. This is what Amy has informed me of.

But for now I had decided to stay in this forest for many reasons. One being I am able to get stronger here before trying to look for any trouble as I had by chance seen my appearance in the river. And I can tell you it could be considered an world destroying beauty. Long sliver hair that reaches the knees, beautiful red eyes that look like Ruby's, skin white like snow, pink lips, an overall ethereal beauty that looks like the gods sculptured it and a figure with all the right portions. If I say so my self I am quite the beauty. Ahem anyways the second reason being is that vampires don't actually exist here meaning I am the only one in the world. This also means I may be more desirable to certain people almost like a trophy.

And I also don't plan to become a mans play thing, that's just disgusting and I also hate men. I much rather prefer women, yes I swing that way. Got a problem? No? Good. Well I am also staying here so that I can learn more about the world by getting access to the shop and buying books about the world. And with my new found intelligence and memory I only need to read them once to remember everything so it won't take me long.

Apart from these things I am just hunting everyday to level up and for food. The goblin I had first killed although reluctant to I drank it's blood and although it's not a five star dish it was better than I had expected but still not good. This is how I had spent my time here in this forest living in that cave.

Oh almost forgot to say, yeah, sunlight doesn't affect me in the slightest bit according to Amy but light magic does which is slightly confusing but I decided to role with it. Yeah all those stories back on earth lied to me. Although what can I expect when vampire don't exist there. However this isn't all, apparently at some point I may be able to but a bloodline that can help get rid of this weakness but that may be further down the line.

So that's another goal I am summing towards, the less weaknesses the less chance to die right? Well anyways I'm just going to continue this life style for a while so I'll see you guys later bye bye!
