"Ah God, my body feels so. New? Is that the word you say? Eh refreshed? yeah refreshed! " Ray sat up and looked around before a flower bud landed on his head.
He brushed it off and noticed he didn't have hair.
"Ay bruh my beautify luxurious hair!" he ran over to a puddle to see not only was he balled but he was black he blinked his red eyes at the puddle before he backed up in fear.
He looked at his hands to see them black his fingers were slider and black they looked the same but they were now completely black
"What the fuck! " he blocked but he had never seen darkness. But each time he opened his eyes he felt a change in everything he looked at even tho nothing changed.
"I'll just keep them closed." he was shaking as he slowly stood up he kept staring at his black slender fingers as he then looked down at his body to see that it was the same.
"What? What am I?" he walked forward a bit before jumping a few times he noticed he was extremely light and nimble. Whatever he did his body slowed him to do it it felt as if there was no restraint to his body whatsoever.
"It's nice and all but... Do I have to look like this?" he marched forward and picked up a sword that was just as black as he was that was in its scabbard.
The scabbard was black well but towards the end of the scabbard, it had a red strap that was neatly tied to it. He slowly unsheathed the sword from the scabbard and looked at it.
What Ray didn't catch is how easily he pulled the sword out from the scabbard. Usually, when you first pull a sword out one struggles with it, this didn't pass by Ray's mind since this is the first time he had ever been in contact with one.
He looked at the black blade toward the sharp part of the blade red waves were going down to it and instead of the tip of the katana that's usually sharp he noticed it was relatively flat but when he brushed his finger up against the end of it he cut himself.
His blood was a dark red that trickled onto the ground slowly but his wound healed quickly with no problem. 'Yeah that was a dumb idea but I can heal relatively quickly it still hurts like hell so I better be careful."
-sigh-
"Well, this isekai is some bull shit. Didn't even give me money. Not like I would be allowed in a village anyways considering I look like some damn monster from the shadows! " Ray pulled himself to his feet before walking over to a tree that looked relatively healthy and thick.
'I can cut this with a blade sharp enough to cut skin by just brushing it. But then again that was skin and this is a tree' he pressed the sword up against the tree which gave off a clicking sound before he swung his sword at it horizontally half the tree got cut but it didn't go all the way through it.
"Whoa! is it the sword or am I just very strong?"
Ray dropped the sword with a loud clanging against the ground before he pulled back his fist and slammed it against the tree. A loud crack could be heard before a wave of pain spread over Ray's body.
"Ah fuck I'm so stupid! Why would I punch a fucking tree! Ah, fuck! Fuck! FUCK!" Ray dropped to the ground while holding his hand which was throbbing
"Ain't I'm supposed to be stupidly strong when I get reincarnated what is this bull shit?!" Ray gritted his teeth before he sighed again and stood up. The pain was subsiding and he could think properly after a few more seconds had passed. He picked up his sword and put it back in its scabbard.
He looked across the field of grass to the other side where the woods was thicker. "I'll walk in that direction. Hopefully, my luck is in effect and ill see something of interest."
'I've been waiting for a system or something to pop up but nothing there I even embarrassed myself and shouted system as I walked towards these damn woods. I guess if I have one I have one but if I don't I just don't.' Ray pushed a vine out of his way as he entered the thick woods there was a tree at least 5 feet away from the last and it was relatively hard to see anything but trees.
It made Ray feel uneasy as anything could be hiding anywhere. Ray slowly pulled out the sword that he had placed on the lower part of his back towards his butt.
"Well if anything's here best to believe you gonna die with me I ain't going out without a fight and that's that!" he looked around as he held the blade with both his hands while shaking.
Ray started to hear crunching coming from the left of him before it stopped. He didn't get the chance to see if it was a person's since the dense trees made it quite hard for him to see. He decide to open his eyes and see if his actual vision could help. Once he opened his eyes he was able to see a figure through the trees.
It was outlined in red and it wasn't human. Soon a creature stepped out it looked like a monkey with a beak and wings and it was crouched down towards the ground it looked as if it was curious about what it was looking at and its big green eyes shivered as it looked at Ray.
The creature dived behind a tree and this bade ray jumped back into the tree. But as if it was instinct ray landed on a branch and was perched there like a bird.
"Ok. Ok we just saw a weird monkey bird monster first thing we need to do. Remain calm! second call 911... Wait." Ray looked around and premiere he no longer has his clothes let alone his phone.
-snap-
Ray looked to his side to see the creature jumping from the next tree over at him. He backed up to the left of the branch as he swung his sword at the creature he got a shallow cut off on the creature but it still landed on the tree with Ray the long lanky limbs of the relatively skinny creature made it look much more terrifying.
The feathers close to the hands of the creature were as hard and as sharp as a blade. every time it made contact with Ray's sword sparks shot off.
The creature let out a shriek as it got closer to ray it swung one of its claws and ray kicked its hand away into the bench they were walking on. It cut straight through it. Ray jumped off the falling branch and landed on another tree. He ran up the tree as he could feel the tree shaking from the weight of the creature now climbing up it
Ray did a flip as he grabbed onto the tip of the tree before crouching down on top of the tree and jumping off it rocketing himself in the air with a loud swish sound.
He heard multiple crashes before he Heard a loud snap before one of the trees fell and the bird-like creature flew out from the sea of trees up at Ray.
The creature darted up to him before he pointed the sword down at the creature. It slammed head-first into the sword before instantly dying from the sword going straight through its head.
[level up]
"HUH WHAT?! " Ray started to freak out before he started to fall back to the ground with the creature. They slammed into the ground and left a big impact that knocked a few trees down but all in all the creature was dead.
Ray slowly walked towards the creature before jerking his sword out of its head with a low swishing sound as it came out.
"Gimme my shit!"
