Chapter 5 - I Hate This World II

"I… Said… Likon my balls, bitch!" I do my best to shout despite it being just a barely audible whisper it's enough to cause the entire group to freeze. As I finish by spiting blood in this asshole's face.

And with that, I feel the pressure around my neck tighten until…

*SNAP*

And I lose all feeling in my body as a cold darkness fills my vision and the last thing I hear is Likon saying, "Good riddance scum."

[Achievement Unlocked: First Death- Murdered by the Angelic Scion of Clan Nudreen, Likon Nudreen for having the misfortune of crossing their path.]

The message passes across my screen before I wake up in the alleyway once more.

[Death Count: 1]

"Fuck!" I shout as I rub my neck and the phantom pain from being murdered by that asshole slowly subsides. "Who knew this game would be so violent! Shit!" I curse before digging around the trash to find a coat that I could use to hide my wings into and wrap my tail around my thin waist a couple of times to keep it hidden underneath my shirt before grabbing a crude covered cap to hide my horn nubs.

Checking into the shattered mirror, I now look like a young elf instead of an incubus, though my features make me look a lot more androgynous than I anticipated with the clothing hiding my body even more making my body shape more indeterminate.

I also noticed that a bruise in the shape of a hand now wrapped around my neck. I grabbed a scarf to cover up the wound.

"Fuck… I'll make due with this for now, but I seriously need to bulk up if I'm going to seduce any hot babes…" I say aloud before going back into the throng of the crowd to try and figure out what this world is and what it has to offer.

Walking around this time, the looks I receive show a mix of pity, indifference, and occasional lust… Except it's by shady-looking pervy old men who catcall me as I pass asking things like, "Hey baby,", "How much for an hour,", and "Come with me, I'll make you a real woman,", to which I respond with by either glaring at them, flipping them off, or cursing.

Needless to say they got the hint and I was able to explore this new world with a minimal amount of lecherous gazes impeding my study.

I pick up a discarded newspaper and find out that this world is called Aqua, and it has approximately the same amount of water my old world did, but lacks continents and instead a large number of archipelagos dot this world's oceans. Each island or chain of islands serving as the 'nation' of a race or races.

After snooping around I discover the 'Dark Zone' is about a quarter of the entire size of 'The Zone' and where most of the dark or traditionally evil races call their home. And only really powerful dark-raced individuals or those who travel in disguise can travel the rest of 'The Zone' without being harassed or degraded. I definitely fall into the latter.

I wander around the streets looking for food before eventually giving up and sleeping under the bridge in a park I was familiar with. Finding some dirty clothes to act as a makeshift blanket before sleeping for the night.

I wake up to a new notification.
