《To Banana or Not To Banana》 Wake up! Ugh! My head hurts. Who am I or what is me? Why am I here? Huh? What are these handy bony here? Oh, it''s shaking ooohhh. They look like my hands. Huh? So confused. ''Look down.'' Oh, I have bony leg too. What is this? Hmm, I''m a skeleton huh?! Hmm, I need a name. Let''s call myself Skely. - You just named yourself Skely. What is this weird board? Why is this pop up in front of me? Nevermind, just skip this. (£þ¨Œ£þ)¥Î I''m too lazy to think. I bet that I have no brain also. Where is this place? Am I underground? Why are there walls after walls? Even the top is filled with bricks. Let''s just keep walking straight to see if I can find a way out. Oh, there''s a Skely homie. He''s walking here. Maybe I can ask him something about me. - A wild Skeleton appeared. 1. Fight 2. Run This weird board keep popping up¡­ Ugh, why is this homie look so angry???? What did I do? Wait!!! He has a sword... What should I do? What should I do? Me no weapon! Me no fight! Me run, modafuka run! 2. Run - Escaped from Skeleton. Oh oh oh! (¨R?¨Q*) Finally, I ran away from that scary homie. - A wild Jello appeared. Nani?! Are you kidding me author? What the heck is this story-line? I supposed to look for items or level up something. ͹?Òæ?)͹ *Author grabs popcorn: My novel, my rules and you deal with it. What should I do now? This author will break my precious beautiful white bones into pieces if I keep running. Let''s talk to that Jello. Oh, I don''t have a throat. Can''t talk. I doubt that Jello has enough IQ to understand Skely language also. ''Looked down on Jello'' (?£þ§Õ£þ)? This Jello look like an ez-lo. Let''s see what option I have here. 1. Fight a. Throw rocks (3/3) b. Hit with a stick c. Special Ultimate Skill prepared by Author - Picked ''Throw rocks.'' - Threw a rock at Jello - Jello took 0 damage. - Jello looked down on Skely and formed a smirk. (? ? ?) My ego¡­ Did I just get disrespected by a mere mob? *(¨° Ãó ¨® ¨p) Author: Yes, you did. Look down on you. - Skely took 3 spirit damage by internal bleeding from rage. Let''s use my Special Ultimate Skill. - Middle Finger Ultimate skill pop up. ͹?Òæ?)͹ Skely was on his knees. He already gave up. He lost faith in humanity and skeletity. This author is trashy af. Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.- Jello looked. - Jello felt sympathy to Skely''s patheticness. - Jello walked away. - You just escaped a fight with Jello by being pathetic. - 3 exp earned. After that, Skely wandered around. He found a stairway to go up. He also noticed a notice pop up in front of him. - Exit to the 8th floor of Zhaka Labyrinth. Would you like to continue? - No. "Let''s just keep exploring this floor first! So this place is Zhaka Labyrinth huh," Skely thought He then found a sword and a trashy armor in a treasure box. Narrator: With his simple mind, he didn''t even stop for a second and think why the heck there is a box in the middle of the way waiting for a newbie like him to pick up some beginner''s items. Author: They see me rollin'' they hatin''. Skely: I''m not stoopich. You''re mama iz stoopich. Author: *Your Skely: F@#! You! (¥Î?Òæ?)¥Îáê©ß©¥©ß Skely kept wandering, wandering, wandering¡­ He felt no hunger nor tired. "Maybe because I have no stomach lol." "Why didn''t I see any other mobs besides those two at the beginning?" - A same old Skeleton and a same old Jello re-appeared. Skely: Did you just toy me around? (¥Î? ¡É?)¥Îáê( o¡ão) Author: ''whistle'' Nope. Skely: Oh! They are fighting. Author: Yeah, you can see if you have eyes¡­ Oh nevermind¡­ Skely stared at author with his two black holes on his skull. Author: Oh oh oh, that skeleton gonna dieded. Help Jello and get a kill secured. Skely rolled up his sleeved and showed his "muscular" bony arm. He landed a punch. (((??£þ??£þ??)?¡ª????o - Skeleton took 3 damage from Skely''s punch. - Skeleton died and dropped an item: a soul essence. - Skely picked up soul essence. "No need to thank me you Jello" ¨C shit Skely said. Jello: ( ?§¥?)¥Î ''speechless.'' Skely: "I already said no need to thank me. Oh please stop looking at me with that idolized look. Just please stop. This is what I should do." Author: Shameless. Narrator: Very shameless. Author: Oh, he literally has no face. After that, Jello devoured all the bones from Skeleton. Jello became a little smaller and its crystal in the middle of its body became brighter a little bit. Skely: "Hey Jello! Do you want to go to the 8th floor with me?" Jello: (;£þ§¥£þ£© Skely: "No answer means Yes. I understand you man." Jello: (¨p?Òæ?) Narrator: They didn''t know this was where an adventure of the gods who will control multi-universe and time began. Survive in the Labyrinth (1) "Rumble, rumble, roarrrrrrr" a weird noise resounding behind Skely¡­ Skely: Did you hear that Jello? Jello: (£þ(¥¨)£þ)©g Jello: Roarrrrrrrrrr, rowrrrrrr Skely: Oh, I didn''t realize that you have a stomach. Usually Slime doesn''t have a stomach. Maybe that''s why you are a Jello. Hey! How do you do No.2 dude? I saw you keep eating but you didn''t gain any weight. Jello: ((¨p?©n?)) Skely: Okey okey, it''s your secret. I''m not afraid of gaining any fat either. Why should I care about my weight huh? I want to eat something too. Let''s go hunting. - A wild Turkey appeared Skely: Oooh! Remind me of Thanksgiving Turkey¡­ 1. Fight 2. Catch Let''s fight it and cook something for Jello. I wonder why I know how to cook. I''m just a mere Skeleton. Maybe I''m not a regular skeleton. Not so many skeletons are as handsome as me. - Fight - Magical swinging bony Slash. - Turkey took 5 damages. - Turkey died. - Turkey is a special food in Thanksgiving. You can eat that with your family and close one. Hmm, let''s cook this one but I didn''t have any equipment or spice to cook. - A wild corpse of a dead adventurer appeared. - You can loot items from that corpse. - Found a pot, a magical cooker, many pots of spices. Skely: I''m giving up of this author already. He didn''t make any sense out of it. Is this really a novel or a scripted writing? Author: Of course, you bony skeleton! I''m cooking while writing this chapter so why not? Anyways, let''s loot this and cook some nice things for Jello to eat. Hmm, can I eat tho? I don''t have tongue nor stomach to eat. Can I really taste anything out of this Turkey? Good question. Nevermind, let''s try some Turkey meat later. Jello: Tic toc tic toc Skely: The heck?! Are you drooling or are you pee-peeing? Let''s me try to cook this Turkey. Hmm, how to use this magical cooker anyway. Author: It''s magical, baby. Season the turkey and then put it in and say Abracadabra. GGEZ Skely: (?? ¡òÇú¡ò)?=???? ? stop being lazy you lazy monkey bonobo. At least write something fancy. You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.''Abracadabra'' - Your Turkey is ready to eat Skely: Here you go Jello. Half for you and half for me. Jello: (*¨Rm¨Q*) Skely: Bon Apetit! Author: Itadakimasu! System: ³Ô·¹ÁË! Skely: ¡­ Jello: ¡­ Skely took his first bite. Hmm, this Turkey is exceptionally tender. Cooked to medium rare, the meat just melts in your mouth. Due to the location of the cut, the part doesn''t have the marbling that''s found in other cuts, but it''s easily the most tender you can get. What it lacks in marbling, it makes up for in tenderness and flavor. Still need mushroom and some other vegetable to stuff this Turkey but it''s still a masterpiece of a fine cook. 10 out of 10 I shall say. It worth my effort to fight that Turkey. R.I.P Turkey. Thank you for the food. Wait!!! How the heck can I taste things? Where did the food go after I swallow them? Narrator: And then, Skely realize the white floating thing covers all his body. Skely: What is this thing? Is this magical air or Chi in Fantasy Novel? Author: It is Mana and yes, you are MC of a Fantasy Novel. Skely: Oh, okay then that make sense. - Danger! Danger! Danger! - Found a mysterious powerful existence coming - Suggested Skely to make a quick escape in 5 seconds Skely: What? How can I escape if you only notice me 5 seconds ahead of time? - A wild Minotaur appeared - Minotaur is one of the most powerful creature in this floor - Suggested a noob like you to bow down and beg for mercy Skely: Since when was System savage like this? Jello: (£à???¡ä+) Bowed Skely: ? ?? really???? - Minotaur looked at you. - Minotaur stared at you. - Minotaur breathed out heavily. - Minotaur was waving giant axe. - Minotaur ¡­ Skely: Stahppppppppp! Okay okay, I bow now. Please show this noob Skeleton some mercy. - Minotaur picked up your turkey and ate it. - Minotaur is kinda happy. - Minotaur pat you on your shoulder. - Minotaur just left. Err? What about my lunch? ? At least leave me something to eat ? Narrator: In the end, Skely was successful to maintain his diet to become a supermodel. Survive in the Labyrinth (2) "Phew, that cow ran away. Farewell my first lunch since birth, I will miss you a lot ?" "I need to gear up and level up. I have a system with me and maybe I can level up and get some skills. I can''t just run away or wait for enemy to spare my life like the ''fight'' with that cow." Skely thought. Skely: Jello, I know you are a slime, but do you know any place to farm and level up?" Jello: ?(????)? Skely: That''s a yes rite? Jello: ?? ? ? ? ?? Skely: Okie, I''ll follow you to that place then. After walking for a while, finally Skely and Jello went to a place full of Skely''s homie. (?_?) Skely: Dude! I asked for a place to farm not to die man! Jello: (*£þm£þ) Skely: Alright! Alright! This is a maze after all. Let''s lure one out so I can practice some martial arts. Maybe I will have an old grandpa to teach me stuffs or maybe I can fall into a valley then become a Martial Artist Master after receiving some Ultimate Secret Sacred something. Jello: *No emotion* Skely: Go Jello, I choose you. Jello: *Pika Pika* Jello lured out a big Skeleton with a heavy armor, a big sword and a shield. Skely was in a ready stance - Encountered a Skeleton - Fight - Use Slash - Skeleton took 7 damages (18/25) - Jello used Acid Spit - It was affective. Skeleton took 14 damages (4/25) - Skeleton used Rush and stunned both Jello and Skely. - Jello and Skely took 5 damages (Skely 27/32, Jello 16/21) - Skeleton slashed Skely. - Skely blocked it with a sword. - Jello used hit and finished Skeleton. - Skeleton dropped a soul essence, a heavy armor, and a shield. It was Skely''s first serious fight. Skely was almost panic and couldn''t block the slash. Somehow, he managed to block it with his instinct in a mere second. He couldn''t realize that his fighting instinct was already in his soul for a while before he became a Skeleton with a human mindset. He has been shaken the whole time not because of fear but the thrill of fighting again. "Nice job dude! Let''s loot this monster." After changing all the equipment, Skely looked at his old stuffs. "Hmm, what should I do with these items? Hey System, do you have inventory like any other usual novels?" - Open Inventory ( ? ? ) At least give me a manual to use this system, you monkey Author. Let''s see! I have 20 slots here. Oh! Look at this, this is my equipped items, and this is my space to put items in. Skely threw in all his old items. Skely picked up Soul Essence. "Hey system, just look at this. Can you tell me what this is for?" - Skely used inspected Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.- Soul Essence can be used to level up your skills and items. Soul Essence could be dropped from Elite Monster and Bosses. "Oh! I killed 2 Elite Homies already! What are you doing Jello? Why are you devouring my homie ?? Jello: ''Gave Skely the look: You just killed them and used me as a meat shield. Now you are talking about me eating your homie????'' Skely: Okie! Okie! Let''s see how I can use the first Soul Essence I''ve received from 9th floor. - Use Soul Essence - Learned new skill: Back Step (Self-casting, CD: 1 minute) - Back Step can be used to dodge a physical attack. Skely gave Jello a Soul Essence. Jello looked at that and shake his body. "Oh, you couldn''t use this huh?" Jello: ?( ? ? ? )? Kept on devouring the Skeleton. "Okie, I''ll use this then." - Use Soul Essence - Learned new skill: Speedster (Self-casting, CD: 30 minutes) - Speedster can be used to double your agility for 5 seconds. Skely was channeling the Soul Essence and didn''t notice Jello''s orb brighten up a bit after finish devouring. Jello''s color turn from Black to Yellow and from Yellow to Black repeatedly. Jello''s orb finally stop brightening. Jello became increasingly darken. Jello was shaken a lot. If Skely was conscious at this moment, he will notice that Jello got a small horizontal split in the middle of his body. After learning new skill, Skely noticed Jello''s changes. "Did you just evolve or something? How do you look much cooler than before?" Jello: ?(¨°_¨®¡¦)? Skely: Oh! You became stronger. What can you do besides Spitting and being a meatshield? Jello suddenly opened his split. It was a huge eye ball. Skely: Dude!!!! How the heck did you get an eye? So cool... Jello closed his eye. Jello seemed like too exhausted to open that eye. Skely: Oh! You can only open it once and then close it¡­ Still cool¡­ Maybe you will gain Sharingan someday dude. Jello: (¥Î?Òæ?)¥Îáê©ß©¥©ß Jello moved to a corner and sat there taking a rest. Jello was too exhausted from the evolution. Skely decided to take on the Skeleton''s pack alone. Our MC was not that boosted to go against a whole pack. He lured one by one out. Used his Rush-Slash-Back Steb-Slash combo to finish one by one. After finishing each Skeleton, he sat and rest for his HP to completely heal. After the clear, he didn''t gain any other Soul Essence or items. Skely thought maybe it was because the first two monsters he killed was Elite Monsters. Narrator: His first day in Labyrinth was almost done. Jello was still asleep. Skely picked Jello up and find a corner to sleep. They didn''t know what will be waiting for them the next day. A Random Dude (1) - Warning! Warning! A mysterious creature is coming. - Its power is over 9000... *Vegeta meme added* A regular guy who looked like a regular teacher appeared. That guy was a little bit surprised to see a weird duo combo like Jello and Skely. He put on a guarded stance and slowly moved closer to Jello and Skely step by step. Skely was surprised because this was the first time he saw a human being in this Labyrinth. He felt unexpectedly happy. He tried to wave his hands to show peace. Somehow, the teacher understood that and put his guard down. Skely ran toward the dude without any caution while Jello was quite afraid of the stranger and stayed back. - Warning! This stranger also has a system named Library of Heaven''s Path. - His system can help himself to learn everything in an instant, to find out others'' weaknesses in certain conditions, to create God-Tier martial arts, and to create a clone of himself to travel through time without his memory. "Wait what?! How can his system be much more op* than mine? Oh, does he know that I also have a system?" Skely was kind of twisted in his feeling if he should run away from this stranger. "Hey System! How can I talk to him if I have no throat?"Stolen story; please report. - Guugle''s translation is activating. - You can now use Guugle''s translation to type and communicate with others (??¥î?)?*:??? ???: *©c(?¥î?©c) wow!!!! "Hello, my name is Zhan Xuan and I''m not from the novel Library of Heaven''s Path." Author: Absolutely not from that novel. Trust me. "I stepped into a Celestial Master Teacher''s trap and woke up in this place. Would you please tell me where this place is?" Zhan Xuan asked with a nice manner as if he wasn''t talking to a Skeleton and a Slime. Skely typed with "Fast & Furious" speed: Arigato! Toyota! Yamaha! Kimochi! Ito Ito! Kawaii Ipon Ipon! Zhan Xuan: ?_? Skely: Sorry! I need to set up this Guugle for a minute. Oh it''s worked. Hi! My name is Skely and this is my friend Jello. This is Zhaka Labyrinth. We are currently in 8th floor. Zhan Xuan: Do you know where the exit is? I want to go back to my place because my students need me. Skely: Sorry, I don''t know where the exit is but we can help you to find it. Zhan Xuan: It would be my pleasure. If you want, I can teach you some martial arts. Would you please to pass out for a moment? Skely: ?¨q¨r? Excuse me?! "I''m a Skeleton and this guy asks me to pass out. Will he do any weird things to me? I didn''t know some people might have such a fetish to Skeleton but he said he will teach me some martial arts. Maybe this is what he ask for if I want him to teach me." A completely messed-up thought appeared in Skely''s skull. Skely: Senpai! Please be nice to me this is my first time Zhan Xuan: ? _ ? Zhan Xuan: You got it wrong. I mean I need to make you pass out for further research puprposes. Trust me. I won''t hurt you. Is this your fist time? Skely: Umm! I understand you. Just be gentle okay? *Shy* Zhan Xuan: Okay. Jello: ©ß©¥©ß ¦à©c(`§¥¡ä)?¦à ©ß©¥©ß What da heck is this conversation? I''m out. Author: What da heck am I writing? Narrator: What da heck are you writing? *op: Overpowered (usually in a video game, in which a person or group becomes or is too powerful; has become very popular in the mmorpg crowd) The Amazing Art of Teaching Zhan Xuan tried to knock out Skely but he failed. Skely didn''t have any nervous system, the only thing Skely had was his bones. Zhan Xuan started to give up and then he suddenly realized that he could ask Skely to have a fight with him to analyze Skely''s Martial Arts. Zhan Xuan: Hey Skely! You can''t pass out so why don''t we fight each other so I can analyze your skills. Skely: Okie! Take this, Zhan Xuan! Zhan Xuan: Skely! Skely: Zhan Xuannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! Zhan Xuan: Skelyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Narrator: One hour later - Skely used Speedster. Agility is doubled for 5 seconds. - Skely slashed. - Zhan Xuan dodged narrowly. - Zhan Xuan took no damage. - Zhan Xuan used Heaven Path''s Fist Art. At this point, Skely felt a sense of danger. He decided to immediately use Backstep - Skely used Backstep. - Skely successfully dodged Zhan Xuan''s skill. - Skely came back with a melee slash. - Zhan Xuan put on his defensive stance. - Zhan Xuan took 10 damages (9989/9999) Skely: Nani?! How could your HP be that huge? How can I fight you? Zhan Xuan exhaled a turbulent wind: We can stop now. I already analyzed your Martial Arts. The way you ran. The slash routine you just used is left-handed. Let me give you a suggestion. Try using your right hand to strike again! "Try using the right-handed version? This can be also considered as guidance?" Skely thought that but still did what Zhan Xuan asked. Skely tried to practice with his right hand repeatedly. After he finished, he felt his skill became much stronger than before. Skely decided to find a stone pillar to try. - Skely slashed the stone pillar. - Skely dealt 40 damage to stone pillar. (???) "Wow! Did I just improve my skill? How is that possible?! Unbelievable!!! OMG!!!" Previously, Skely''s slash did 12 damage on average and now that it had risen to 40 damage, that was over twofold! That was¡­ more than a 300% increase! Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions."Was that for real?" "I¡­ I¡­ Is this from me?" "Zhan Xuan!!! You are an amazing teacher." He never cared if he was right-handed or left-handed. However, never could he imagine that his right-hand strength would hold so much strength! That was twofold more compared to his right! Zhan Xuan shyly smiled: "It''s your talent. I just helped you a bit. No need to say that." Skely suddenly gave Zhan Xuan ''the look''. Even though Skely didn''t have any eyes, everybody could see that he had sparkle sparkling in his eyes as if he would jump onto Zhan Xuan and offer all his bones to Zhan Xuan. Skely suddenly made a move. Zhan Xuan: What are you doing? Me No Homo!!! Oh wait, I don''t know what gender Skely is and Skely might be a girly skeleton. Wait!!!! What am I thinking? I don''t have a skeleton fetish ¡­but, but Skely is a special Skeleton. What will be will be. Skely rushed to Zhan Xuan with the speed of light and ¡­ gave him ¡­ Jello: ( ? ? ? ) Me see nothing!!! A big hug!! Author: What did you think Skely will do to Zhan Xuan? You pervert!! Look down on you. Zhan Xuan was scared for a moment and he gave Skely a big hug back. Skely: You are the first person who treat me so nicely like this. I''ve never been treated this way before. Why didn''t you come sooner? I was so lonely. Zhan Xuan: Don''t worry Skely! You have me now. I will take care of you. I won''t let anyone hurt you. Skely: I wish I could have met you sooner. I''m like a bone and you are like my flesh. We are born to be together. Skely: Senpai! *Blink Blink* Zhan Xuan: Skely! *Hair majestically fluttering in the air* Jello:©d(*?*?)? _____________ ©d(? 3?3)? Senpai! Notice me ? Author: Dear Jello, you just got abandoned. Grab popcorn! This shit gonna get gud. Narrator: Suddenly, a black hole appeared right behind Zhan Xuan. He got sucked in right away. He could only yell Skely''s name one last time. Skely was completely shock and couldn''t do anything. He was on his knees and kept yelling: "Zhan Xuan Oppa! Saranghaeyo!" Narrator: #No_homo A Fish Skely could not cry because he had no eyeballs. Deep inside, he felt like his heart was not there anymore. And, of course, it''s not there because he didn''t have any heart from the beginning. He felt nothing but numb and cold without his missing flesh and skin. He felt like he couldn''t breath because he didn''t have lungs. The image of Zhan Xuan inside his brain wasn''t there anymore because he didn''t even have a brain either. The way he was walking now was exactly like zombie in on of those famous series "The Walking unliving" in Hollywuud. He missed the time when he did swordfighting with Zhan Xuan. Those times was full of excitement and pleasure. Even though, everytime it would end up with Skely asking Zhan Xuan not to stop and keep doing it harder, stronger, more and more until they collapsed and look at each other with a fullfilled smile on their face. He kept walking aimlessly. Jello was confused about Skely''s feelings but Jello didn''t know how to make Skely feel better. (?¨°¦à¨°?) - Goldfish appeared If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.- Goldfish is a friendly animal. Far far away, there was a goldfish walking to their place. Yes, a goldfish was walking to their place like a boss with his sunglasses on in a dark Labyrinth with weak lights from all kind of gems attached to the walls. Goldfish: Hello! My name is Goldfish. Jello & Skelly: ¡­. Goldfish: Hello! My name is Goldfish. Both Jello and Skelly felt a little bit embarassed by getting reminded by a goldfish to introduce themselves so Skelly immediate turn on his system and used Guugle translate to communicate with Goldfish. Skely: Hi! My name is Skely and this is Jello. Goldfish: Hi! What''s your name? My name is Goldfish. Skely: Oh! You didn''t understand this. Let me change the language setting. Okie, done! Hi! My name is Skely and this is Jello. Goldfish: Oh hi! Nice to meet you. But do you know where my son is? His name is Nemo. I''m looking for my son. He has a small fin on the right and he cannot swim well. Skely: Can you explain to me a bit carefully? How did you lose your son? Goldfish: Huh? What son? Whose son? When did I have a son? Jello: ¨q(?¡¥§Õ¡¥?)¨r Skely: ¡­ Goldfish: Oh right! I have a son but what is his name? Skely: Nemo¡­ Goldfish: Oh yes! The last time I saw him was when a sushi chef caught him. I have been looking him for years. Skely: How did you end up in a Labyrinth? Goldfish: I don''t remember. Who are you by the way? Skely: Skely and Jello Goldfish: Oh hi! Nice to meet you. Skely pointed to a crossroad: Look! I just saw Nemo ran that way. Follow him! Goldfish ran to the direction where Skely pointed and never came back. Skely breathed out a big sigh: What a crazy fish! I should have capture him and make some Sushi. Long time no eat Sushi! That fish is fat though. Jello: (*¨Rm¨Q*) Narrator: They didn''t know that was the God of Fish who was looking for his Son. Banana (random 1) There was once a big Banana. This Banana had no children yet for none of his seeds had ripened. He waited patiently day and night for his babies to hatch. One day, as he was sitting on his nest of seeds the big banana felt something move beneath him. Poc!! Poc!! Poc!! Never mind! He just had a regular morning banana like any healthy young Banana. Filled with happiness, the Banana watched as, one by one, his little banana became bigger and bigger. "Thanks god! My banana is still usable." He was so excited to grab the napkin to... *cough* watch his favorite movie collection like any other healthy banana would. Ite! Ite! Ite! Kimochi! His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy There''s liquid on his sweater already, mom''s spaghetti He''s nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready To just come, but he keeps on forgettin'' Bam! Finally, his seeds ripened! He was so excited to lead his children to the farm and teach them all the ways of being a banana. Unfortunately for the big Banana, one seed was left to ripen. This seed was smaller than the rest. This seed was darker than the rest. His little bananas impatiently waited for two more days and nights.If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. "I want to go to the farm, Popo," one baby banana said. "Let''s go! Let''s go!" two more said excitedly. But the big Banana made them all wait, for he promised himself that he would love all his children the same. At the crack of dawn on the third day of waiting, the small dark seed began to vibrate. It shook and shook as all of the bananas watched in awe. Then suddenly: KIMOCHIIIIIII! Out from the small dark seed popped a large, strange looking head of a banana (just like a mushroom) that didn''t look much like a banana. This baby''s head was a little too weird (just like a mushroom), his hairs were a little too scruffy, and his face was a little too ugly af! But, nonetheless, the big Banana promised himself that he would love all her children the same. He led his children into the nearby pond and began to teach each banana how to be a proper Banana. He taught them how to peel. Each bananas peeled. PEEL!! PEEL! PEEL!! PEEL!! The ugly banana peeled. Ouch!! So hurt!! All of the bananas in the farm stared at the ugly Banana and began to laugh. The father Banana sadly took his little bananas over to a different part of the farm. The other bananas were giggling and making fun of the ugly one. Two nearby Banana passed by and grabbed at the ugly banana''s hair. "This one looks nothing like your others!" one jested. "This one is ugly!" the other scoffed. The ugly banana hung his head in shame. The father Banana became very embarrassed of his ugly banana and made him stay in the corner of the farm while the others practiced Kama Sutra, 69 Stances, Missionary, Cowgirl, Bug on a Leaf, Side Rider, Leaping Frog, Banana Split... All of those special stances would be needed in a special time when all those baby bananas grew to be a bigger and harder banana. One evening, as all of the bananas in the farm had gone to sleep, the ugly banana decided that it was time for him to leave. He knew he was causing his father distress and he did not want to live in a place where he felt unwanted. So the little ugly Banana ran away. Narrator: The end of Part 1 What happened? Skely regained his consciousness and now was the second day after confronting "that thing". Also Skely finally came to understand that this Labyrinth was a dangerous place with full of monsters. Monsters like, some black Mango looking thing and other giant cock which he dislike. This place probably isn''t California. This place probably is kind of Chichen Itza. Skely always knew that Mexico had black cocks, giant insects, walking bananas, and some kind of bear with 4 arms. Skely should have paid a more attention to things outside by watching discovery. That way Skely could have known that there was such a dangerous country out there... Skely cried T_T Anyways, let''s test the [Backstab] Skill. As if by instinct, Skely just blink to the back of a skeleton captain and stab it. System: Skeleton died. - [Backstab] Skill leveled up by using soul essence. - Skely gained 4 exp. Wow, such a powerful skill. Did you see that Jello? Jello: (????) Sigh, I wish Jello can talk to me. I feel like I''m going to die from loneliness. I''m about to start crying. [Resistance Skill [Solitude Resistance: Lv1] was acquired.] Nani?! Wut? Hey yo system! I don''t think that skill will be necessary. Your consideration makes me happy though, but it isn''t what I''m looking for. I want the warmth of another person... I miss Zhan Xuan-Oppa I''m not a man who can endure being alone, I don''t want to become a lonely man. I don''t need to be the strong, i just want to keep living as a banana who feel my little banana every morning when I wake up Banana life huh, something like waking up to be a Skeleton means that I can''t understand. Which reminds me, when did i come here? How did I end up in this place? I don''t seem to remember. I do recall that I''m just a skeleton, and i still have my common knowledge which tells me that monsters shouldn''t exist. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.I don''t quite remember if I was a skeleton or not, but probably a skeleton with a gaming system like this ain''t bad. Was i abducted and brought to Chichen Itza? Then, I wonder who was the one brought me here. Hmm! My head is hurt. What happened yesterday? Ouch ouch ouch! How did my skull get hurt a lot like this? Oh yes, I remember. Yesterday, I encountered "that thing". I was almost dead. How was I still alive? My HP was very low. Skely: Did you save me Jello? Jello: (?+?`¦Ø?¡ä) Skely: Oh I see but can you please tell me what happened yesterday? Jello: ( >§Õ< Skely: I forgot that you can''t talk. It seems that HP can be recovered by just taking a rest or leveling up. For a whole day, Skely has paid a lot of attention in order to not get hurt and end up dying because of "that thing". Skely has been avoiding monsters, eating everything Skely could find and little insects, and drinking some weird liquid. Though Skely didn''t want to, it was inevitable. Skely thought Skely was going to die from hunger. Even if my level goes up... Will I be able to fight? I don''t think I would be able to fight a monster anymore. Author: Stop bullshitting! You just killed a Skeleton after waking up. Skely: I had a trauma because of what "that thing". Leave me alone!!!! Since I''m a Skeleton. When will I evolve? Will I become stronger? Will I need to defeat monsters to become stronger? That''s impossible!, I''m just a mere skeleton! Weapon? Why do I have a new weapon. Didn''t I steal from "that thing"? Could it possibly be that it was from "that thing" nest? - Warning! A dangerous creature appeared. - A Big Dark Worm made its debut - It is huge, black and stinky. - After killing its enemy, it will go deep inside enemy hole again and again and again. Skely: Hell no!!!! Jello: *wave a board "Please be gentle"* "Let''s check the Dark Worm status", Skely said. ©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\ Name: Big Dark Worm Race: Worm Rank: Elite Status: Normal Lv: 20 HP: 90/90 ??????? ??????? ??????? ???????

My agility was slightly better than his, but for now I should escape from here. Now I knew why that guy was so obstinately aiming for me, it was because of that strange Special Skill that he had. It really probably was because of that. An agreement was impossible. It would have been inadvisable to communicate with that thing. Skely still didn''t know what to do. However, Big Dark Worm didn''t stop. It launched its first attack. Jello: *Cover his eyes* *Peak* Narrator: Skely was in such a dangerous situation. How could he survive? What happened to him before? Let''s grab some tea and we all wait for next chapter. What happened? (2) Skely was being chased by the Big Dark Worm. Skely and Jello have been running for hours. Skely: Hey Jello! Can you lure him to a place where I can have an advantageous position? I cannot fight him face to face like this. His stats are much better than ours combining. We can split up and attack him from different direction which will make him confused. Jello: =????( ??§Õ??))) Skely: I''m counting on you. Skely and Jello started to speed up and then they suddenly split at the crossroad. When the Big Dark Worm arrived at the crossroad, he found himself got sandwiched by Skely and Jello. - Jello used [Rush] - Skely used [Back-stab] - Big Dark Worm took 25 damage and 10 damage extra by a combo - Big Dark Worm used [Harden] and [Regeneration] - Big Dark Worm gained ???? [Defense] and 10 [Hp] - Skely used [Speedster] and gained double agility - Skely used [Slash] twice and Jello used [Acid Spit]Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. - Big Dark Worm took 45 damage (20/90) - Big Dark Worm used [Bite] to Skely - Skely dodged it with [Backstep] - Big Dark Worm hit the wall and left a big hole. The Dark Worm hissed at Skely. Skely could see that if he took that [Bite], he would be dead bone. Immediately, Skely decided to attack again to finish this Worm. - Skely used [Slash] and killed Big Dark Worm - Gained [Hardened Worm Skin] and [Monster Orb] Phew, I won!, I really won! I beat an opponent that I thought I could only run from. I finally killed that Worm. Let''s see what I can do with this skin and orb. - Inspect [Hardened Worm Skin] and [Monster Orb] - [Hardened Worm Skin]: can be used to make Leather Armor. You can get this from Elite Worm Monster. Other uses are unknown. - [Monster Orb]: ???? Skely suddenly got confused with those "????". He got the same situation when he tried to check out the Worm''s stats. This was the first time Skely got into this situation. Maybe the system is not omnipotent at all. "I should stop depending on System." Skely shook his skull. "Now, time for dinner. Hmm, I suppose that I should eat him. The idea of eating this giant caterpillar is quite dreadful if you ask me. But I suppose that it should give me good nutrients for my growth. I''m still in my growth period. *blink* *blink* Ain''t I, Jello?" Jello: (;£þ§¥£þ£© ~Skely-can-cook showtime~ First, you have to turn on the heat. Heat a wok over a high heat and add a dash of oil. Season the worm meat with salt and pepper, and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until golden brown all over but not quite cooked through. Toss in some garlic. Throw in some sugar. Prepare some vegetables on a dish for decoration. After it got cooked til crispy, put them on top of vegetables. Now, you have a delicious Worm dish. ~~~~~~ Time to eat, Jello. This is my first time I cook a worm. I hope u will enjoy it. For better taste, you can wrap them around bacon. Jello: ( ??¦Ø?? )¦Ò Skely: Ch¨²c ngon mi?ng Author: Bon Apetit Narrator: Skely and Jello finally got out of dangerous situation but Skely still didn''t remember what happened to him the day before. Will he remember? Let''s find out the next chapter. Meow! (1) After eating the worm, Skely and Jello decided to move on. Narrator: Hey author! Did you forget that Skely wants to remember what happened to him a day before? Author: :/ Skelo: What did I forget? Author: Nothing... Skely: Okay... Skely was walking like a boss in the Labyrinth while Jello is cute as F. Too bad nobody gives a single F about them. They had encountered many different; some of the monsters from Magikarp to Pikachu. Some were friendly, and some were not. Suddenly, they found something weird on their way. It has two panels that meet in the middle with a board of two buttons not far from its side. Its look was shiny, magical and random... "You just found a magical elevator!" Readers: Nani?! Elevator????? Did you run out of idea? Author: Nope... Just watch Skely: Hmm, what is this one? Oh, there are two buttons. Let''s click the one in the bottom. Jello: (????) Skely: Oooy! System! What is "Elevator"? System: Searching the result from WykyPedia "Elevator is a type of vertical transportation that moves people or goods between floors (levels, decks) of a building, vessel, or other structure. Elevators are generally powered by magical motors that either drive traction cables and counterweight systems like a hoist or pump hydraulic fluid to raise a cylindrical piston like a jack. In agriculture and manufacturing, an elevator is any type of conveyor device used to lift materials in a continuous stream into bins or silos. Several types exist, such as the chain and bucket elevator, grain auger screw conveyor using the principle of Archimedes'' screw, or the chain and paddles or forks of hay elevators. Languages other than English may have loanwords based on either elevator or lift. Because of wheelchair access laws, elevators are often a legal requirement in new multistory buildings, especially where wheelchair ramps would be impractical." Readers: WTF Author!!! Did you just copy and paste from Wyky to reach 1k words ...? Author: You imagine things... I''m not that shameless... Ding!! The elevator opened. Inside, there were four glass walls. A classical song was played. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.The elevator''s walls were a boring white color. Due to the passage of time, the corners were slightly darkened from dust. On one wall of the elevator were ninety-nine green buttons with numbers on them and one huge, red button. The red button has the huge skull on it. Skely and Jello walked into the elevator. Skely saw the red button and was so curious about that. Skely didn''t stop for a second and pressed the button... Jello: (???????) Skely: What do you mean? I''m just curious what will happen after pressing the button okay? Jello: ¨q(?¡¥§Õ¡¥?)¨r Skely: See? Nothing happened. Come on man! Trust me, we''ll be fine... Poof! Skely and Jello suddenly appeared in a dark room and got chained to the wall. "Do you want to play a game?" - A puppet rode a bicycle to Skely and Jello asked them. Its face was pale white with a protruding brow and cheeks that had red spirals painted on them. His red lips formed a grin, his eyes were black with red irises and his head was topped with black, messy hair. Additionally, he wore a black tuxedo with a white shirt and gloves, a red bow tie as well as red shoes and always had a red handkerchief in his breast pocket. Skely: Sure, why not? What''s your name by the way? Puppet: I''m Billy "You will have to give correct answers to my three riddle. If you give me a wrong answer, you will die. If you cannot answer, you will die." - Billy the Puppet talked to them with an evil chill tone. "The game will start now" "Ms. A is sexy. Ms. B is cute. Ms. C is beautiful. They all just got out of an airplane. What did people at the airport think about them?" Skely: Nobody give an F about them... Billy: Correct! Jello: (¨s¡ã¡õ¡ã£©¨s¦à ©ß©¥©ß Readers: (¨s¡ã¡õ¡ã£©¨s¦à ©ß©¥©ß Author: ?_?? Deal with it "This is the next riddle. Ms. A and Ms. B were 17 and were not old enough to get into a club. The guard stopped them. Ms. A and Ms. B happened to know some Kungfu. They beat the guard up. After that, can they get into the club?" Skely: Nope... They got caught and had to go to the police station. Billy: Correct! How are you so smart? Skely: My IQ is 200/200. Author: 200/200= 1... "This is my last question but also the hardest one. You are the one and only who can make it this far. Be prepared for my ultimate riddle. Ms. A is a pretty and elegant girl. Ms. B is a smart and sexy girl. Both of them fell in love with a guy. In the end, everyone lives happily ever again. What happened to them?" Skely: This is really a hard riddle. Please give me five second. Billy: Five... Four... Three... Tw... Skely: Got it! That guy is gay. He found his true love. Ms. A and Ms. B realized that only girls can bring each other happiness. They became an Yuri Couple and lived happily ever after. Jello: ... Readers: ...
