《The Ruby Eyes Serpent》
Prologue - The day that I die
Prologue - The day that I die
On this day, at 4, she was to meet her ''many'' friends beside an old well, on the outskirts of town.
"What took you so long, Ruby.¡± Her friend asked her.
"Yeah! yeah! I¡¯ll make sure to pay you back the next time!¡± She said having grown slightly annoyed.
After saying this, she pulled her jeans up and got up on the outer rim of the old stone wall. Not before taking her last breath.
"Well, are you going to do it or what?" Her so-called friend further instigates her to do the dare.
"I¡¯ve had enough! I say I will do it in a minute! So just shut up or else I¡¯m gon. . ." She shouted out in great frustration.
The two friends at the top of the collapsed old stone well, saw it all happen, as she plummeted to the ground.

"It seems that I''ve kicked the bucket, huh! Goodbye Life, and Hello Death!"

Drip, Drop! x2
The sounds of water droplets enter her ears, as her body lay down against the floor unconscious.
She woke up to find herself in a white room, devoid of anything but a golden pedestal at the center of the room. And on top of the golden pedestal, there is a human shape hand imprint on the surface of it.
When she tried to get up, her body felt extremely heavy, whilst her mind is extremely confused.
"Where is this place?" She asked herself.
She remembered dying and such, but now she is here. Where exactly is here to be exact. Is this the afterlife, heaven, purgatory, or maybe hell.
"Young child, who died before her time. I offer you a second chance of life in another world." A mysterious voice then enters her head.
Chapter 1 - Goblin shark?
Chapter 1 - Goblin shark?
She instinctively reacted, turning her body around frantically, trying to locate where the sound is coming from, but to no avail.
"What do you mean a second life? Is it reincarnation or something." She called out to the mysterious voice.
"Why yes, you are exactly right. All you have to do is step up and touch the podium, and your choice of reincarnation would be up to you." The mysterious voice said.
She then walks up to the podium and examines it closely, before placing her right hand on the hand-shaped imprint on the surface of the podium.
Her placing her hand on the podium has triggered the podium''s hidden mechanism, as the whole podium starts to glow.
"Okay, so what now? What am I supposed to do after I activated the podium?" She asked the mysterious voice inside her head.
Her inquiry is cut short as a holographic blue screen, that which is commonly seen in sci-fi movies has appeared hovering above the podium in front of her.
| Please choose a heritage |
| Human |

"Wow, this is some sci-fi shit that you have here! And what does it mean by your chosen heritage? Mr. Disembodied Voice." She asked the mysterious voice inside her head.
"Well, since you are being reincarnated. I thought that it would be best if I were to give you a varied amount of choices, to choose from. Plus in this world, that yours don''t, we have something that which is called magic." The mysterious voice inside er head explains.
"Well, that is all nice and all, but I just want to live my life as an ordinary human." She says this to the mysterious voice, whilst her hand is accidentally pressed against the blue screen.
Without her noticing, she has already selected a choice, and there is no going back. There are no redo buttons.

| Congratulations! You have chosen the ''Aquatic Heritage''! |
She then looks at where her fingers are pressed against the screen, and she immediately sighs, realising that it was her own fault for not looking where she leaned on.
After the system announcement disappears, the screen is then replaced with another.

"The skill points are used to buy new skills from the monster system. To access your skill list please press and hold onto the skill point option." The mysterious voice answered.
Since she has nothing else left to lose, and she plentiful of time. So she does as what she was instructed, and pressed on the skill points tab, and hold it for 3 seconds.

"Okay, I think I sort of got it, but what is a goblin shark." She asked the mysterious voice inside her head, whilst pointing on the species tab ''Red-eyed goblin shark''.
"Well, the Goblin shark is a rare species of deep-sea sharks. With a horrendously ugly appearance that resembles a goblin, and breeds fast and adaptive like a goblin. The red-eyed part is due to a special gift from your previous incarnation." The mysterious voice inside her head answered.
"Okay, so I''m basically becoming an ugly deep-sea fish with glowing red magic eyes. Oh great, never in my whole life would I expect that to come off my mouth." She said.
"Yes, and I know the exact feeling." The mysterious voice inside her head responded.
"Well, I''m now ready. Though is it possible for me to take this thing with me, but in a much smaller version. You know since Im going to be a fish and all. It may come in handy." She asked the mysterious voice inside of her head.
"Sure thing, but I''m going to have to take all of your skill points for it. The whole equivalent exchange thing..." The mysterious voice inside her head said, with a light grain of salt.
"Low blow dude! Low blow..." She talks back.

"Well, good luck then. I hope that you have a safe journey then." The mysterious voice said to her.
"Wait a minute! I..." She didn''t get to finish her sentence when the whole entire white room starts to break down, as the whole ceiling collapsed letting the waters flood in.
With the whole room flooded with water, her body is then enveloped in white light, as her body is then transformed into that of a Goblin shark.
This is her first step on the road to becoming the red-eyed demon, feared by all.
Chapter 2 - A bloodbath
Chapter 2 - A bloodbath
As the white room is flooded with cold waters. Her body starts to slowly grow in size, transforming into a large pale skin fish, with razor-sharp jagged teeth popping outside of her mouth.
With her distinctive ruby-red eyes that have no irises or pupil, making it fully red, whilst giving off the mere illusion that her eyes are made from actual rubies.
Once the cold waters fully consumed her, she unknowingly gasped, as the cold waters then enter her newly formed gills, starting up her newly reborn heart.
"Kuhargh! Kuhargh! (Cough! Cough!)" The sound of her coughing.
''Ow, I''ll never be doing that again!''
She then swam her body around, looking for anything that is still of use within the white room, before swimming through the large crack in the ceiling.
As she escaped out from the white room. She then looked back at the sight, all along the white room was actually her own egg.
After learning of this particular fact, she then became slight amused.
''If it was already decided that I will be reborn as a goblin shark, then what is the point of asking me to pick a chosen heritage.''
She then took a quick look at her surroundings. Within her line of sight, there is a swarm of goblin sharks; the same size as her, with pale skin, and glowing white pearl eyes.
To them, their perspective, her ruby red eyes are indeed abnormal but is nothing at all impressive.
Once she took a look more closely, she saw that the goblin sharks are pushing each other out of the way, to get to the corpse of something that looks like a crossed between a black striped eel with a bloated pufferfish.
Her appraisal skill immediately activates, displaying the intended targets skill and information.
| Black-striped venom blade eel Lv.26 {dead} |
| Random skill extraction is hereby possible on the intended target! 100 MP cost per use! |
Out of curiosity, she activated the Ruby Eyes skill on the dead ''Black striped venom blade eel'' as her intended target. She immediately felt her mana draining at an alarming rate.
Her ruby red eyes start to glow intensely bright, as a piece or fragment of the Black-striped venom blade eel''s soul is then ripped out from the intended target dead corpse.
The soul fragment or piece of the Black-striped venom blade eel is then hereby absorbed by her.

''Well, sweet! The skill is pretty cool! Venom fangs, huh!'' She exclaimed outward in excitement.The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
* * * * *
Meanwhile, as the horde of goblin sharks are swarming towards the corpse at breakneck speed.
One of them managed to shove the other into the corpse''s protruding spikes, that if she had to guess were secreting out poison because the other goblin shark that was impaled by the protruding spike before immediately stopped moving.
Its lifeless cold body then floats down to the bottom of the sea bed. dead!
Stomach growling!
With her stomach growling, she slowly swam towards the horde of goblin sharks, with her tail fin flapping back and forth propelling her forwards.
''This will surely take me some time to get used to. My first step towards success.''
In her mind, she sees the swarm of goblin sharks all coveting the sole dead carcass for themselves, as a possible hazard. The odds of her dying during a feeding frenzy or getting involved in an accident is extremely high. So she decided to think of another alternative.
''So if I am going to satiate my hunger with something. It will be something that I have a better chance of surviving.'' After having thought of this, she starts to have a look at her surroundings.
Her pair of ruby eyes then landed on the dead carcass of her brethren''s; brothers and sisters, that are lay to rest, and lying at the bottom of the sea bed.
She swam to the bottom of the sea bed, readying her razor-sharp jagged teeth out. With little to no remorse for the dead, she began to tear apart at their flesh, chewing and swallowing it with glee.
Munch! Munch!
The sounds of chewing, and tearing of meat, coming out from her mouth.
''This taste extremely horrible like shit. Nevertheless, it''s still food. I should be grateful for whatever I get.''
As she finishes her first meal within this world. Several sounds of beeping enter her head.

''Well, that''s nice and all it still does not help with my current situation, like I even care about having familial relations with a bunch of ugly fishes.'' She made a snarky remark on the goblin sharks.
However, there was a sudden change in the horde of the goblin sharks'' behaviour, as the food source is starting to run out.
There are several hundreds of goblin sharks to feed. So they all start to turn on themselves, whilst seeing the other as food.
They began a huge massacre; chaotic red bloodshed that spans across several entire regions of the sea bed. An ethnic cleansing of the weakest in the goblin shark horde.
''This is a bloodbath!'' She exclaimed out in great alarm.
A red blanket of blood mist soon covers the entirety of the bottom of the sea bed.
Chapter 3 - The bloodfest
Chapter 3 - The bloodfest
A nearby goblin shark spotted her within the vicinity, unable to contain its own hunger any further. It strives to devour her whole.
She immediately sensed the existence of the goblin shark that is steadily heading her way.
However, unlike a normal goblin shark. She is by far stronger and more intelligent than the ordinary aquatic fish.
By the time that the goblin shark has reached her location, she would have already taken action, by anticipating the goblin shark''s movements. Always staying one step ahead of her opponent.
The goblin shark made a straight beeline towards her, like a shark torpedo, it cannot turn but go straight forwards.
As the goblin shark is drawing closer, during the last few minutes, she reacted by swimming out of the goblin shark''s line of trajectory, and it missed her.
Whilst going around the starving goblin shark to its side, its own blind spot. Her extendable jawline extended revealing rows sharp jagged teeth.
She then activated her newly acquired skill Venom fangs, as her jagged teeth start to gain a purple tint, secreting out toxic venom.
Since she doesn''t actually have an actual functional poison gland within her body. To compensate for this, mana is expended, artificially generating a varied level of different components and substance which made the poison venom.
Her jagged razor-sharp teeths then sink into the pale skin and flesh of the starving goblin shark, injecting it with her newfound venom fangs.
The secreted venom is then injected into the starving goblin shark''s flesh and muscles. Slowly, the poison then makes its way through the starving goblin shark''s body and enters the bloodstream.
Within seconds, the toxic venom then coagulates and immediately blocks the constant flow of blood around its body. As well the harmful components that made up the venom, starts to attacks the red blood cells inside the starving goblin shark''s body.
The starving goblin shark writhes in intense pain and agony, as it''s inside and organs are being destroyed by her venom.
Its health points are quickly dropping into the red bars, right before her very eyes.
It did not give up, before violently ramming its body around on the bottom of the sea bed, sending out a flurry of sand, as a last-ditch effort to escape death.
However, she remained strong with her grip. With her jagged teeths sinking deeper into the starving goblin shark''s flesh.
The liveness in its greyed eyes vanishes, with its pale skinny body becoming still and quiet.
She then rips a big chunk of flesh out from the dead carcass of the starving goblin shark she killed. The blood of the dead goblin shark then mixed with the ocean''s seawater turning it red.

''Add all four unallocated points into strength!''
She hurriedly adds all four of her extra unallocated stats points, that she gained from her levelled up, all into her strength stats.
She then presses on the obvious green plus mark, located next to the stats attribute value. All four of her unallocated stats point are spent, as she instinctively felt the slight improvement made to her body with the stats increased.
''I felt a newfound strength growing within me...''
However, her thoughts were suddenly cut short, as a nearby group of goblin sharks spotted her.
One of the starving goblin sharks then rams into her, from the side. They tried tackling her, with their sort of pointy nose head, by ramming into her body.
The ramming attack does minuscule amounts of damage to her, but it sort of flips her body around onto her side, within waters.
This sort of behaviour actually disorientates sharks, as it sort of confuses their visual and magnetic senses.
This sort of feeling really wants to make you hurl up.
''Augh!''
The starving goblin shark''s nose head slid across the side of her body, and then over her.
She reacted on instinct, and immediately swam forwards despite her confused state.
She dodges the starving goblin''s bite attack after the ramming charge, otherwise, it would have bit into her side, and she would be powerless, just like her first victim.
It didn''t take her long to recover from her disorientated state and flip her body around, right side up.
''Now you''ve gone and done it! Now I''m mad!'' She said so having become slightly enraged.
Like a raging eyed bull, the redness with her eyes then intensifies, glowing much brighter. As she swam away and curved her body to turn left or right. She now faces the direction of the group of starving goblin sharks that attack her.
''Now you''re dead!'' She said so with fury and a strong intent to kill.
Whilst, the first goblin shark failed to deal a lethal attack on her. While it was distracted, with all of its attention focused on her.
The other goblin sharks then turned on against it, biting down on the one that failed the attack made against her.
It''s a dog eat dog world out there. Only the strong survive and the weak die off.
The weak become food to feed the strong.
Chapter 4 - Survival at its finest
Chapter 4 - Survival at its finest
The other goblin sharks then immediately turned on the one that attacked her. One goblin shark tore into the creature''s back fin.
Another goblin shark completely eviscerated the poor creature''s side fin, and tearing off its pectoral fin.
The lone goblin shark screams of agonising pain, being muffled out by the sounds others, as the poor creature was being eaten alive.
Meanwhile, the other starving goblin sharks were busy chewing and devouring on the lone one, whilst it is still alive. The poor thing. She still didn''t let matters go.
Whilst, holding a deep grudge on the group of goblin sharks, that decided to target her. She swam towards the lone goblin shark that first rams her, with her jagged jaws raised opened.
She clamped down on the poor creature''s nose head, with all of her strength, and tear apart the poor creature''s skull.
She didn''t stop there; with the first bite, it tore through the poor creature''s skull, whilst leaving its vulnerable brain out in the open. The second attack will deal the final killing blow that will end it all.
She charges forward, but this time she activated her stolen skill Venom fang, as her rows of jagged teeths then becomes slightly purple.
| System Log |
| You have activated the skill [Venom fang] 10 MP is hereby consumed! |
She sank her rows of sharp razor jagged teeths into the poor creature''s brain. The secreted artificial poison is hereby injected into the poor creature''s brain, destroying its brain cells and matter.
She tore a big chunk out of the poor creature''s brain, immediately killing. Without a functional brain, the poor creature is basically a living corpse.
With the severe injuries, it incurred from the other starving goblin sharks. It is bound to die any seconds anyway.
''Let''s reap all the benefits, whilst taking all the experience points for myself, and used the dead carcass to draw more hungry (goblin) sharks in.'' She convincingly thought.

''Well, this is awesome! Two level-ups in one go! Now for the other ones!'' She laughs sinisterly, whilst staring at the other goblin sharks that are busy eating away at her spoils.
''There is no way that I''m having any one of you left, leaving alive!" She proudly pronounces a declaration of war.
Whilst, the other goblin sharks were busy and distracted by feasting upon her spoils. She went in for the kill and completely decimated her competition; with every bite, she took being extremely lethal to them, as the fast-reacting poison would begin to destroy their insides.

''Tch!'' She clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction.Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings.
It would seem that the last goblin shark was intelligent enough to realise the deaths of its other companions, and immediately fled the vicinity before she got it.
''It seems this bloodfest won''t end anytime soon.'' She speculated.
In fact, it is growing more intense as time progresses. With each level up, the individual goblin shark would grow stronger, alongside their size and appetite.
It would certainly mean an instant for a low levelled goblin shark to come face to face with a high-level one. It''s just basically seeking death.
''While anybody isn''t targeting me! I better hurry and allocate my newly acquired stats.'' She says to herself.
''Status!''
She said the keyword inside of her head and the magical blue status screen then appears in front of her.

''Add twenty unallocated stats points into strength and the rest into agility.'' She thought first before action.
She hurriedly adds twenty of her unallocated stats points, that she gained from her levelled ups, into the strength stats. And the rest all into her agility.
The system has a sixty seconds delay for when the stats allocation is added. Therefore after the sixty seconds time limit, the use''s allocated stats will become permanent and unchangeable.
The moment that she completed the stats distribution, consuming all of her extra unallocated stats points, that she gains with each level-ups. Her body improves by leaps and bounds.
Though it is not obvious of her appearance, because she can''t see her own reflection, but she has grown more than double her original size from when she first reincarnated into this world.
Her long protruding rows of razor-sharp teeths outside from her mouth, now resemble cutting chains of a chainsaw. Very frightening!
With each individual level-ups, the tip of the nose head of a goblin shark becomes harder, as it becomes as hard as bone cartilages.
This is so that it could help improve the strength of its ramming attack, while at the same reducing the risk of head trauma and damages to its head.
''While this is still going on. It''s time to increase my bloody level!'' She exclaimed out in excitement over the bloody ordeal.
She couldn''t contain the eagerness and hunger to hunt any longer, letting her beastial instincts kick in at full throttle.
''It''s time to hunt!''
Chapter 5 - The aftermath of the bloodfest
Chapter 5 - The aftermath of the bloodfest
Time passed rather slowly, with their perception of time has become distorted from the chaos. The seemingly several hundred groups of goblin sharks, now reduced down by more than a half.
Eventually, those that survived through the whole ordeal, grew to massive length and proportions, with some certainly exceeding four to six meters in size.
To someone who is from Earth where the animals are quite ordinary and normal, not as much impressive as the monsters in this universe. Very scary?
A full-grown adult great white shark would grow to four meters, with the most largest great white shark being around six meters.
However, that is not the tip of the icebergs; with a full-grown adult male goblin shark, being at maxed level (lv50). Their overall size would no doubt certainly exceed the great white shark six meters limit, and even reaching as far as nine meters.
This does not include skills, traits, or titles that which would influence the growth of the individual, similar to a stats multiplier.
How menacing and terrifying can the goblin shark grow up to be?
The goblin shark is one of the many deep-sea creatures hidden away from the surface. And it''s not even close to being at the top of the food chain, or close to becoming the apex predator of the sea.
The vast majority of the now surviving goblin sharks has reached levels close to the late twenties, with some managed to break into the level thirties boundaries.

''Add twenty-four unallocated stats points into strength, nineteenn into agility, twenty-two into defense, and the rest into vitality!'' She thought before she acted.
She allocated all of her hard-earned bonus stats point into their respective stats attribute value.
Within seconds the effects of the stats increased began to take effect, as her vitality steadily increases to the proportion of her levels.
The effects of the bloodlust from the recent killings began to calm down, as their sense of reasoning began to return to them. Due to the level up bonus stats, they gained with each levelled ups, their intelligence starts to slowly rise.
Some of the goblin sharks are showing signs of starting to develop sentience. However, they are not capable of human speech yet.
With the effects of the bloodlust soon fading. They all noticed the obvious changes made to their bodies by the system, as a sharp burning painful sensation unravels from withinside their guts.
Due to the vast amounts of experience points gained after the bloodfest. Their levels exploded astronomically to twenties near upper twenties or thirties.
Their mana pool increased exponentially within a short amount of time, that which their newborn monster body could not easily handle. It is what is causing the burning sensation they are feeling inside their gut.
All of the surrounding mana they gather withinside their monster bodies began to flow to one place, their stomach abdomen, thereby forming a small vortex.
The small vortex then rapidly sucked in all of the surrounding mana that they each possess within their monster bodies. The experience would drain them all of their energies and strength.
The small vortex would gradually begin to grow bigger, becoming a spherical big mass of fluid energies.
The ball of mana energy then shrinks and compresses on itself forming a mana core.
| System Log |
| Congratulations! You have successfully formed a tier 1 monster core! |
| Your monster core has advanced to 4 ¡ï! |
Once a monster has accumulated a thousand points of mana, they would then form their own monster core, and be officially labelled as monsters by the world.
With each two-hundred points worth of mana, the user gained after they formed their monster core. 1¡ï will be added to their monster core.
Once the user has gathered up to 5¡ï, an equivalent of the two-thousand worth of mana points. They are able to promote their tier 1 monster core to tier 2.
The formation of the monster core withinside the body is extremely agonising, almost to needles piercing your body, whilst you are burning alive.
The sounds of a hundred goblin sharks screaming and roaring, reverberates across the ocean sea bed, as all aquatic life within a few miles quake in fear of the absolute.
