Synopsis

Chapter 1 - toxic start

in a beach, there lying on the sand, a white haired young girl lies on the sand, with both of her hair, fox ears and fox tail wet. the girl is wearing a half torn ragged dress.

the girl is 147 cm with a petite body, with pure white hair until the tip ending with a beautiful indigo, reaching thigh length long hair.

down on her hips, comes out a fox tail. similar to her hair, the tail has white for the most part, only turning indigo at the tips of her hair.

and unlike her hair, the tail has two indigo markings on it. the first mark being a six pointed geometric shape, each point is perfectly spaced between every other point, while also resembling all five other points.

the first mark was a snowflake.

the second mark resembled a flame, both had similar colours, but the latter, unlike the first, had its colour faded.

the girl, now showing signs of waking, opens her eyelids only to reveal her beautiful crimson iris's.

thus she awakes in a new "world".

i open my eyes, only to be met with sand, i stand up and take a look around me. infront is a forest, as far as i can see from the right and left, in terms of height, the trees are between 200 tall or 300 meters tall, with a thickness of 10-30 in diamater.

turning around, i see a sea, a massive sea at that. i am at the beach between a forest and this gaint ocean.

'looks like i drifted a shore.' i mouthed, looking into the distance i note, 'note to self, dont jump down any suspicious cliffs.' but non suspicious cliffs are 100 percent fine.

now, brushing off the sand off my ragged dress i mouthed looking at the dress 'i should chang-'.

[New host detected.] the first screen said.

[Synchronizing] the second screen followed in an instant.

'hmm.' i hummed, looking at those two screens, i noticed that i can't see them. atleast not with my eyes. but i can see them with my minds eye?, and hear them not through my ears too.

'geh' i say as i saw countless words and, more annoyingly i heard it say all that in the span of a second. but it didn't stop after a second, but continued for a long time.

as this will go on for a while, i decided to address the situation. first, i drifted ashore, my clothes are wet. second, i have no clue where this is. third, this.

oh? it finshed, it only took a dozen or so minutes of pure torture, just casually driving people insane with mental information over load, how nice.

now, what is this i see?

oh? what's this? a status screen? am i a mahwa/manga mc? i hope not.

what's with the name? what's with the blank text on where the name is? i guess it doesn't know my name. my name is... actually, no.

'soul grimoire...' its a book i cant see. but if i focus, i can perceive it, i can feel it without any of the five main senses, somehow.

'well let's focus on survival for now.' i say, finding nothing with the screen i can do. now entering the forest.

-

after walking in the forest for a bit, i get a bad feeling and turn around, it had been 200 meters of walking in a straight line. now turning 180 degrees i start running for, what id say, 300 meters? i stop.

looking around, i find no trace of the ocean.

'well, looks like I'm lost' i say, now with no point of reference for direction.

'well, i can only continue going at this point.' i continue going at this point.

? that last one i dont get. well, we have something a bit more important, i found food.

i found a bush filled with berries, it may be poisoned, but i can see a trail of ants carrying the berries, so i doubt it is.

crouching down near the bush, i take a bunch and notice that it's getting dark.

"for a 36 hour day, it got dark rather fast." i say looking up at the leaves covering the sky, remembering the old 24 hour day.

i turn around looking for shelter, and after a bit, i find a small grove inside a tree.

it's barely enough for a full grown man to enter, good thing I'm only 1.5 m tall.

crawling inside, i find it barely enough to fit myself, luckily, the insides are much bigger than the entrance.

dumping the berries to the side, i find it already got too dark for me to see.

"good thing i found this." i mumble to myself.

now turn my attention to the berries.

"this could be poisonous, if i get poisoned there is no hospital to help." i say, picking up a berry.

"then again, starving is deadly. and i saw ants eating it from before, so it's unlikely to be poisoned." i also say.

looking at it, examining it, analysing it, engraving it into my mind, leaving not a single atom unanalysed, i just decide to gulp it down.

"geh, bitter." i say, not throwing up since taste doesn't matter.

i eat a dozen or so more before stopping, feeling something off, i wait.

...

---- 〔skill〕 - gained - (instinct) ----

"eh?"

!!!!!

i bend down, holding my stomach, why? because it hurts, IT HURTS!! it feels as if a hole is burning throu my stomach!

---- 〔skill〕 - gained - (acid resistance) ----

SO IT IS BURNING!! atleast i was right about it being not poisoned.

---- 〔skill〕 - gained - (poison resistance) ----

fuck! i jinxed it! of course, if an ant can resist acid then of course it can resist poison!

it hurts so much.

---- 〔skill〕 - gained - (pain resistance) ----

...

IT STILL HURTS!

"whats the point of pain resistance if it does NOT, reduce pain..." i mumble at the irony.

*cough cough*

i proceed to cough my lungs on my hand, only to look and find i coughed up blood.

"fuuuuuu- im going to die goddammit." i curse.

"you know what? if I'll die either way, might as well die with a full stomach." i say as i take almost all the berries, leaving only a few left.

---- 〔skill〕 - leveled up - (acid resistance) ----

ohh! i can live?

....

....

i probably shouldn't have eaten more.

i shouldn't have eaten more.

i most definitely should not have eaten more.

"fuck. im going to die. as they say, if a cliff doesn't get you, the poison berries will!" i say with a bloody chuckle.

---- 〔skill〕 - gained - (cell regeneration) ----

‎ ‎

"..."

"AAAGHHHGHNDF-" the pain got intensified a fuck ton, and now the pain that had reduced from the start got back to full intensity, as of now im swinging around the same way you do when you get a cramp.

------ 〔skill〕 - gained - (regeneration) ------

"THATS JUST THE FIRST ONE!!" i mumble in pain.

i get it, this is hell. i died and woke up (at the beach), now i must face eternity in poisonous pain!

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-

"i really dislike this, what did i do to get this? i mean, i only...." i stop myself, fully realising that i kinda deserve this. and this is only what i did in this life (lets hope earth doesn't get counted)

"ah, im tired, lets just..." i mumble before i collapse from exhaustion.

———~~———~~———~~———~~———

*chirp chirp*

in a grove inside a tree lies me in a pool of my blood, slowly waking up to the chirping of birds i immediately spring back up, only to fall back down.

"eh? im alive? or is this, hell 2™." i say, sitting up slowly this time, i find the blood i spat out awhile ago.

looking to the right i find it daytime outside. now to the left... i find the culprit of last night's 'event'.

"i just remembered, most poisons are bitter, so..." i say looking at the berries.

"so taste DOES matter!" i say, as i take 9999 psychic damage over my own stupidity.

ignoring the culprit, i say.

"how did i survive?" i mumble knowing full well no one will answer me.

with no one to answer, i turn to the grimoire.

----------------------------------------------------

"... thats alot of skills. and whats this?" i say looking at the thing next to the level.

...

i think it's the power given to each skill, but they arent all equal. for example, a skills lv is 1, while another is bloody lv 8.

then there's that adapt skill, but I'll ignore it for 𝖗𝖊𝖆𝖘𝖔𝖓𝖘.

why i know all this? i dont, I'm guessing based on game logic.

well, i can just check them out.

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (instinct) --->

the response given thats engraved into a race.

--------------------------------------------------

what? i get it, but it makes no sense.

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (acid resistance) --->

your body is more resistant to acids and other corrosives.

----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (poison resistance) --->

your body is less influenced by poisons.

----------------------------------------------------

this and the acid one probably didn't do anything, but im sure they did, just barely.

maybe because they're too low leveled?

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (pain resistance) --->

in spite of the pain you feel, you will still be able to function.

----------------------------------------------------

so you don't decrease pain, you biket.

also, i cant die of shock now, right?

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (cell regeneration) --->

the specialised version of regeneration only for cell regeneration.

----------------------------------------------------

so the reason why it hurt alot more is because my nerves regenerated?

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (regeneration) --->

your natural ability to regeneration your body.

----------------------------------------------------

... how is that different from cell regen?

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (poison body) --->

due to being unable to remove the poison from your body, your body has made the poison a part of its inner workings.

----------------------------------------------------

so I'm poisonous? cool. wait, how is it not effecting me?

also, more descriptions are always appreciated.

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (poison enzyme) --->

due to being unable to expell the poison, your body made an enzyme that makes it not effect you.

----------------------------------------------------

that's how it doesn't effect me, cool. cool...

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (acid body) --->

due to being unable to expell the acid, your body has made the acid a part of its inner workings.

----------------------------------------------------

the acid version of the poison body.

----------------------------------------------------

〔skill〕 - (adaptability) --->

āđãpț

----------------------------------------------------

".... what?" i say, all the other one's make sense, but this? i get what adaptability is, but why so, weird? is weird correct description?

adaptability are suspicious as hell.

looking to the right, i see yet again the forest at which it feels endless (which it probably isn't (then again, this is hell, so.).)

"this will most likely attract predators." i say looking at the blood pool that i made.

"okay, time to head out." i say, ignoring Satan's shi- berries, i head out.

now leaving the man cave (torture dungeon), i find the berry bush from last night. but unlike last night, its berryless.

no, actually, there are some berries, but they're at the first stages of growing.

even though i picked alot last night, it wasn't enough for it all to be gone. so someone picked the rest last night.

and even more weirdly, the berries went from gone to the first stages in one night (at least i hope it was one night.). i may not know much in botany, but i know that they dont tend to grow that fast.

with these thoughts out of the way, i decide to go where I'm guessing away from the ocean is.

onwards to doom.
