"Really, how are you going to help me?".
[By utilizing all the system's new functions]
System's new functions? And how am I supposed to do that?, Rein said in a confused tone.
[Host can view his stats and abilities simply by saying status]

As he did, another prompt appeared in front of him

"This is... quite a lot to take in. Are you saying it's only been a day since I hatched?"
[Affirmative]
And what are all these numbers?, what do they mean.
[These numerical values displays the host's information such as Health, Mana, Attack, Defense, agility, intelligence]
Hmm interesting, and what is this exp thing?
Ding*
[EXP also known as experience points, As a host, you can earn experience points (Exp) by defeating enemies. These points serve as a measure of progress, indicating the host's level of achievement towards the next level up which in tur....
Aghhhh this is way too much information, and it all sounds like random nonsense they're numbers floating midair, a voice in my head telling me random things and me being in the body of an insect.
Ha..haha "I... I must be losing my mind. This... this must all be some kind of hallucination." Said Rein in a shaky voice
*Ding!
[It is imperative that the host calms down and study the system slowly]
*Phewww
the system thing is right let's calm down and take it slow. He thought to himself before looking around to assess his surroundings
Seems like some sort of cave... hey, system, where am I anyways?
*Ding!
[It has been detected that the host is in the "crystalweave grotto"]
"The crystal weave grotto?"
*Ding!
[The crystalweave grotto is a forbidden dungeon located in the kingdom of Xyralithia]
Ah so it's a dungeon, wait if this a dungeon doesn't that mean there are...
[Imminent danger detected. Brace for impact!]
Shit!, Rein thought to himself before dodging towards the right as a huge tail comes crashing down
*BOOM
"What the hell was that?" Rein yelled as he couldn't see in the now dust covered room
Slowly the dust had began to settle as Rein looked at where he previously stood he immediately felt a sense of dread as the ground was smashed in from the sheer force of whatever just tried to attack him
Slowly his eyes started tracing the tail back to it's owner, as fear immediately started creeping over him and his heart sank he felt a pressure so overwhelming anyone normal monster would have passed out or worse died from the pressure and then it happened.
He locked eyes with the creature that attacked him, as he did his sense of dread only grew more as it confirmed the thought that has been wondering in his head from the start, I'M GOING TO DIE!.
Before him stood a massive snake, one who's aura reeked with the smell of death a tainted soul who would stop at nothing to capture it's prey, Rein's legs began to tremble as if something in him was screaming for him to run and get as far away as possible from this creature, and he immediately knew what it was,it was his instinct as a monster telling him this isn't a fight he can win.
And so he did he began to run like his life depends on it.
*Hisssssss
The snake lunged at him with speed so fast Rein couldn't react quick enough before...
*Crunch.... Snap
The snake had bitten a large chunk of his flesh off before his body could process the pain he was already sent flying
*ShreEeeEek
Rein shreeked as his body hit a wall and slid off it like a roach smashed with a shoe his whole body writhes in pain as a hunge Chunk of his flesh had been bitten off he layed there and looked at the snake which was now visible
It was a blood red snake with black markings all over it's body,four eye's and a yellow underbelly towering Over him, the snake just stood there and watched as he writhes and groans in pain as if it enjoyed his pain, occasionally flicking it's tongue as if it could taste his fear with all eye's focused on him and constantly glowing red almost like it was staring at his soul waiting for his will to live to be shattered before devouring him
"Shit! shit! shit! system what do I do didn't you say you were going to help me what happened to that?"
Ding!
[I advise the host to trying crawling into the hole right next to him]
"Hole?" Rein said this while looking to his left and then seeing an opening a hole big enough for him to crawl into but the question is will this monster let him get to it. Rein thought before being reminded of the time he died, he felt that same unpleasant feeling he had when he died.
"Damn it you're all the same every single one of you, this stupid snake and that two faced bitch I'll make sure I Devour every last one of you for looking down on me I'll make you pay and kill you all in the most gut wrenching way possible for all the suffering you put me through, Rein proclaimed while while gritting his teeth so hard he started bleeding from it.
He then started crawling slowly towards the open space in the wall his body battered and bruised bleeding profusely from his open wound, but he didn't care as his goal was to get into the open space the snake watching how this little spider is still struggling to live found it even more amusing as a sadistic grin creeped up on it's face,
completely unaware of Reins plan to make into the hole, with a final attempt he pushed himself towards the hole and the snake then realized what he was trying to do as it lunged to try and capture him but failed as Rein managed to make in the snake angry at having lost it's prey tried to squeeze in but it couldn't as the hole was too small for it
The snake had no choice but to give up and leave as the sound of his onslaught would have surely attracted nearby monsters.
Ding!
[Congratulations host on completing the hidden mission survival and earning a silver chest]
Ding?
[Would you like to Open the silver chest?]
[Y/N]
"Yes" Rein replied with a shaky voice
Ding!
[Congratulations host on earning 50 evo points and 1 level up token Host has leveled up to level 2]
As the system prompt appeared Reins injuries started healing slowly but surely and he could tell as the pain slowly eased up but he no longer has the energy to maintain consciousness and could feel himself going to sleep before he passed out he heard one more prompt from the system
Ding!
[The spirits of the world have heard your pleas and felt your will to Devour All and have granted you the unique skill DEVOUR]
[Congratulations host on earning a unique skill I look forward to your progress]
Was the last thing Rein heard before he passed out and slowly drifted to sleep
