    [allen] there is a flash of light and I''m teleported to a white room and all i see is a kid floating in middle of the room with his legs crossed smiling at me.[AI]hi I''m the ai that is going to be helping you get started first thing first do you want to change your race well does the change help you [ai] some races will start off better at some things than others but if a person worked at it any race can be just as good for example if your starting race waspexi and someoneelse picked giant it is possible for the pexi to become stronger but when you first go back yes the giant would be stronger so do you have a race in mind[allen] are there any races that live longer[ai] yes there are a few like pixie, elf, vampire, high human, demon, angel,to name a few.

 1

    well i need to choose something that fits what i want to be elf will be good at magic and start out with basic knowledge of how magic works but on the weak side in the beginning human is average nothing good but nothing bad vampire is little better can''t be in the sun or church''s and weak to light magic good at Shadow/dark magic and good regeneration but silver will hurt me a lot more there are to many races to look through them all but as i was looking threw them dragon pops up how is that even fair ai why is dragon in here [ai] well you can pick what you want but say you wanted to be a really strong race like demon angel vampire dragon you wouldn''t start off all powerfull lets use vampire as a example you won''t start as a progenitor you would start as a lesser vampire a skrony bald pale white skin monster the only thing lower then them is the ghouls they can make if they bite someone and are basically zombie''s there useless the longer you live as a vampire the stronger you get and the older you get you will slowly climb up in rank the ranks are as follows lesser vampire,new born vampire,then there is vampire once you hit this rank you can bite someone and change them into a new born vampire then Noble vampire,pureblood vampire,ancient vampire,progenitor vampire see what i mean its not unfair the only way to reach the next rank is to be strong enough or old enough so fell better now[allen] ya thanks i want to be a vampire so how do i change how i look [ai]just imagine how you want to look but youwilllook like a lesser vampire until you reach new born[allen] how long does that usually take [ai] about three months if you just age but if you kill people or monsters it will depend on how hard you work.[Allen]so how do i want to look 16 White hair down a little past my eyes dark green eyes that shoud and baby face ormature i go with baby face morelikely to help me thinking im a kid ok im good to go [ai] and also you shoud pick a name its wierd calling you ai [ai] you can call me adam and in order for it to be fair time is different here you and every person on earth will be back at the same time 1 year will have passed so the animals will have a fair chance to get stronger because they are not smart so god gave them time to grow but dont worry they are not overpowered but when the humans return magic will beintroduced to the universe and monsters will start to spawn dont wary the strong monster wont start spawning right away because the mana wont be thick enough so are you ready yes adam see you around allen he waves and there is a flash of ligth and im standing in my roomwell lets see what i look like i go in the bathroomdam that is bad no lips sharp teeth and pointed ears and red eyes man in need to make it to newborn and fast i go to my closet to change clothes put on some cargo pants and a t-shirt and hoodie to covering up my face wouldbe nice if i had a mask now let look at my status windowIf you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent.

    [note the average is 10]


    looks good but now that i look around it has been a year there is dust all over my room i look out the window and see animals attacking people who went outside i reached under my bed and grab my machete now should i power level or wait and let everything die down if i wait people might out level me and I''m sure if someone sees my face they wouldattack first ask questions later i walk up to my door and turn the nod.

    as I was about to turn the door nob I hear something it sounds like dog nails walking across the floor I don''t have a dog ok if the animals have been here for a year growing in power imgoing to need a plan I grab my blanket off the bed and open the door and hide behindthe wall I hear him getting closer and i get mymachete ready when he takes a step around the cornerI swing my machete down as hard as I can it sinks in yes I got it but the blade got stuck and didn''tgo that deep I kick the dog away and the blade comes loosefalling on to the ground it try to grab it but the dog triesto bite me I throw the blanket over him and tackle him to the ground I try to grab the machete but when I do he gets out from under me I back up the machete is now behind him fuck he growls then charges jumped to bite me I put up my hands to block it I fell his teeth sink into my arm as imtacked to the ground his claws dig into me as im strugling the blood from the wond I first gave him drops on my face the world goes red I pull my arm to the left not caring about the skin taring to expose his neck and bite into his neck the dog whines and starts to claw my chest but it is too late he slows and stops moving I keep dranking by the time I come back to my senses there arenotification windows

    knowledgeof the skills flows into my head the feeding frenzy could be bad if it happens around people I don''twant to kill because I don''tthink I can controlit I mean I just turned into a vampire and when the feeding frenzy activated Ijust bit into a dogs neck I still don''tfeel bad about it one bit not that I care about killing it but biting into a neck and sucking blood without even thinking about it well it did taste good I look at my chest when I try to get up because I feel a sting of pain I see that my chest is scabbedover alreadybut not completely healed I guess that is because of life steal when I get up a grab a change of clothes and my machete I check and see if the dog droppedanything but there was nothing by 25%xp but that''sall I got I look out my bedroom door to see if there is anything but it doesn''tlook like there are any more dogs in the house. when I go to the living room I see outthe window the sun coming in hits my arm my arm starts to burn I move my hand fast it is all red well looks like I''mwaiting for the night it''s lucky my window in my room was tented becauseiused to work night shift and couldn''tsleep withoutit ill wait in there till night time. wellif I''mgonnawait for hours with nothing to do I might as well meditate and see if I can find mana I sit there for an hour and feel nothing hmm well the mana just came it''s probablystill to thin and my intelligence is still 10 which is average I guess I''ll work out and see if I can gain stats that way start with some push-ups and i go past 20 that was my limit as a human but as a vampire I go up to 50 my arms are killing me but i did gain 1+ strength it popped up in my vision in small blue letters I guess it would be annoying if every time I gain stats there was a notification that covers up my vision ok lets do a full workout I start to do sit-ups jumping jacks and squats by the end my stats look like this The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

    ok, this gets me wondering all these skills seem like their part of my race except blade mastery so I guess they don''t show till I use them? well, this will help time to head out Ineed to find a better weapon so I start searching houses as im sneaking between houses man im fast I wonder how I would compare to the fastest man on earth before all this.as I''m searching I don''t find one I hear people in the house every once and a whileI just avoid them let''s go to the richest person where I live and see if I can find something there as I climb over the stone wall I look around and see his 3 guard dogs the person who lives here probably got killed by those dogs. guess I''m going to try to see how many I can kill without them noticing my machete is not the best weapon for this I will probably be noticed by the time I kill the first onemaybe even before but I will need a better weaponso I jump down.

    as I hit the ground I look around my heart startsbeating faster that wasn''tas quiet as I was hoping but look like they didn''thear me I start to sneak from tree to tree in the distanceI spotone of the dogs thishas to be quick and clean but how I don''tthink I can get close enough without him smelling me or hearing me I got itI pickup a rock and climb a tree I hope this works I dropthe rock and it hits the ground and the dog starts to walk over he is standing under the tree looking around I take a deep breath to and slowlyexhale to calm down to make the least amount of noise as possible instead of jumping off the branch I let my self slowlyfall from the branch as I fall from the branch I swing my machete not strong but insteadkeep my arm loose and swing as fast as I can it was like a blur it hit the dogs neck and it cut the dogs head off when I landed I was as quiet as I coud I let my toes hit first and then the bottem of my feet and bind my knees that was a lot better I quickley look around and there are no dogs yes I did it when I was done looking this poped up

    I''mstarting to think I don''tneed to hide from the dogs to kill them but no point in taking the risk I kill the second dog the same as the first but on the last dog I decided to fight it head on he charged at me but I sidesteppedwhen he jumped and swung my machetedown on his back and killed him and it lookslike I leveledup.

    now let''s check the house man this place is huge I never liked houses this big I mean what is the point of having 10 rooms if your only going to use 4 but as I was searching I found a room full of weapons, not guns but old swords and armor I guess he must have collectedarmor before all this. I search through it and find 3 piecesI like one is an old Japanese style sword and some chin maile and the last is a mask also I found this when I tried to really look it over in detailLove what you''re reading?

    why wouldit say from a blacksmith who just scratchedthe surface I''mprettysure this would be one of the best swords of the time but I guess they didn''t use magic to make it so maybe that is it I put the chain mail on under my hoodie and over my shirt grabbed the katana now that I''m here Imight as well stay here for the daytime the sun shouldbe coming up soon I don''tthink I need to sleep as a vampire I have been up all night and I''mnot tired might as well meditate and see if I can feel mana wait I almost forgot to use my status points I should probablyput them into intelligence and wisdom I put 3 in intelligence and 2 in wisdom bringing my intelligence up to 13 and some up to 12 lets see if that helps me find mana is set down and meditate while im meditating I notice my mind feels less slugish the only thing I can compare it to is like when your mentley wore out and after I put the stats in I fell like when you wake up wide awake full of energy your mind is so clear ok lets get started and I colse my eyes i sense a slither of mana I try to guide it into my body it flows into my heart and like blood it flows around by body with each heart beat I feel it seep into my bones and musles I draw in more and after the 10 one it started to condence in my heart into a tiny crystal the size of a grain of sandI open my eyes and look towords the cloth window blinds the sun is about to go down lets see if I can do any thing with my mana when the ai showed me vampire it showed vampires are good at shadow magic so I try to feel the shadows I fell it and as expands it I feel something move at the edge of my shadow vision. I get up and grab my mask off the table and put it on and pull my hood over my head.i sneak to the door but when I get near I there someone starts to run off but the footsteps sound light I rush out the door and see a little kid running away I chase after the kid and corner him in a room then when he turns around and looks at me his eyes are grey but they start to turn yellow and sharp claws pop out of his hands oh shit he is a werewolf. I need to stop him before he fully transforms. and I charge at him.
