《The Archer of a new world》 Chapter 1. I opened my eyes and saw I was in some sort of black room. It was nicely furnished with an old Victorian style table and 2 simple looking chairs. I also saw a nice bed in the corner of the room. On the table was a small envelope and a plate of cookies. "Cookies!!" I screamed with joy. I ran up and ate the cookies until they were all gone. "I''d only rate them a 7 out of 10 points." I said, though still satisfied to be able to eat cookies again after that incident. Oh, I guess I should mention this important detail. I''m dead as far as I know. Though it was such an embarrassing death! How the hell do you die from slipping on a banana peel and falling out a window on the 48th floor?! No I didn''t die from that since I luckily reached my hands out and grabbed the 47th floor balcony right below my apartment. I called for help and a goddess appeared out of the apartment! The woman was so beautiful that I accidentally let go of the balcony and I resumed my falling descent towards death. Trust me, it hurts a lot when you''re traveling 40+ miles per hour straight down to the ground due to the stupid wind. Luckily though I bounced off a tent and into some bushes with only some bruises and possibly a broken wrist. As I got back up I think I slipped on the grass due to the morning dew, and possibly died from breaking my neck on a large exposed tree root. Sigh, thinking about that is such a pain. Well metaphorically and literal. Well guess I should read this stupid letter now. As I tear open the envelope I pulled out a sheet of pink paper fell out and I quickly read it. Dear Participant, You''ve been chosen randomly by a RNG machine that I connected to a special reincarnation crystal that I won in poker from one my identical sisters which she was gonna sell to some stupid goblin king just cause she was bored. Anyway, since you''ve been chosen you get certain benefits and all that stuff. Originally I would''ve been here myself, but one of my sisters dropped Pandora''s Box in lair of a Great Hell Dragon King so I need retrieve that. Why do I need keep babysitting my sisters and fixing their problems?! It so dam annoying!! Anyway, you got the option of picking a Class like you would for a game. Yes, the world you''ll be going to will be similar to a game in which you can lvl up, get quests, fight mobs, and that sort of thing. Well you''ll see the other stuff you can choose on back of this letter. There''s a pen next to the plate of cookies if you didn''t notice, From, Luna the Goddess of Games. Wow. I feel bad for her. Must be a pain having to fix your family problems over and over again. Well luckily I was an only child so I didn''t have to deal with that. I flipped the letter over and saw what I had to fill out. Name: [This has a great effect in your life. Choose wisely] Gender: [Yes it''s obvious. Though may change depending on Race and Class selected] Race: [Will give Racial benefits and disadvantages depending on what Race] Class: [Similar to a job, but can evolve over time. Can only be changed under Special circumstances] Skill: [ One randomly generated from Unique Rare to Unique Godlike skills. Affected by name, race, and class] Seemed simple to me. Oh who am I kidding?! They all greatly how my next life will be! What if giving myself name Bob makes me a king, or even if I choose Bill but become a criminal?! Dam! While I was remembering some light novels that had similar beginning like my situation I unconsciously picked up the pen next to the plate and randomly started to write stuff down. By the time I noticed I had already filled out everything except the Skill slot. Name: Sebastian Ultima Deus [Changed to Celina due to Gender and Unknown Goddess] Gender: Male [Changed to female due to interference from an Unknown Goddess] Race: Human [Changed to Elf form Goddess due to several Unknown Goddesses] Class: Mage [Changed to Archer* Class due to Race and Name] Skill: [Currently Generating] I was speechless. Everything I wrote was changed by thanks to some unknown goddesses!! Even the Mage Class I wanted was changed! I mean sure I learned how to use a bow in middle school, by my precious dream for magic just disappeared..... "WHAT KIND OF BULL CRAP IS THIS!!!" I screamed in anger as I grabbed a chair and threw it against a wall. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Unfortunately whatever material the wall was made off just indented slightly and shot the chair right back at me like some sort of trampoline. I quickly jumped to the side as the chair flew pass me and landed right where it was previously before I''ve thrown it. Dam, so I can''t destroy anything I guess. While I was thinking about ways to release my anger a sudden pink flash appear on the table. I went back to it and saw the letter was slightly glowing but with one slight change. The Skill slot was filled. Name: Celina Gender: Female Race: Elf form Goddess Class: The Archer* Skill: [Bow Summoning*] I got a skill called Bow summoning. Does that mean I can summon a bow? Sigh, there''s just not enough information to decide if my skill is even good or not. Though it does fit that stupid Archer class I got with that asterisk. Wait, why is there a glowing asterisk next to Archer and Bow Summoning? Curious I went and touched them. Right then words appeared right next to my Class and skill. Class: The Archer: Unique God-like Class that once belonged to original Goddess of the Elves, Celina Ulimi Tunia Est¨¨ who sadly died during after sacrificing herself to kill the last God called Hades in order to protect the elves and her sisters.

Skill: [Bow Summoning] [Novice Lvl 1] : Unique God-Like skill once owned by original Goddess of the Elves, Celina Ulimi Tunia Est¨¨ who sadly died during after sacrificing herself to kill the last God called Hades in order to protect the elves and her sisters.

Though why did it say Hades was the last God? What happened to the other gods? Why are there only goddesses left? I had so many questions, but I felt sleepy. Can a dead person even feel tire? Well whatever. I went to the bed and the moment I landed on it I fell asleep. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Author here :) What you guys think about the Class and skill? Didn''t feel like having to talk about rank system in future so I just integrated it into the Skill. Are they too OP? I made sure the class had some negatives and skill get crazy mana cost for stronger weapons to try balance them out. I will make some improvements to this chapters if needed. Though I think I did a decent job with this chapter. I think... (>_<) Chapter 2: Dont get overconfident Chapter 2 I woke up to the smell of something familiar. Something that no mortal could ever resist unless they were the undead. "Fresh Cookies!!!" I yelled as I jumped out of the bed and ran towards the table with batch of cookies on a plate and a new envelope that had green hearts on it. Like yesterday I ate all the cookies before I went and opened the envelope. [Dear participant, I see you like my cookies. Though did you seriously have to rate them?! Anyway, I''m writing this to inform you that due to my sisters pranks on your character creation I''ve decided to give you 2 things. The first will be a new skill related to your class. The second one will be a very rare passive skill. Though it will be selected by my sister Emily who''s the Goddess of Luck and Lust. If you ever see a beautiful woman with red hair, blue eyes, and holding a purple crossbow that''d be her. Don''t try run away since her Class has a special Tracker skill which is a pain in ass.....] As I read this woman name Luna started ranting about her sisters and all that. I''ll just give a brief summary about them. Luna has 5 sisters who''re currently alive. She has two sisters that are considered dead who were Celina the former Elf Goddess and Cleo who seemed to have been the original Goddess of Lust. Though it''s said that Cleo went missing during the Great Celestial War some 300,000 years ago. Now for the ones that are alive the first one was Black Aria the Goddess of Priests who rules over the human race. Seems Luna was jealous she wore good clothes of Origin rank and her personal tiger guardian is a primordial tiger who strength is near God rank. I''m guessing that skill rank system in my Bow summoning skill works for everything. Though my Class did say Unique Godlike so maybe that ranking is incomplete or its in those spots that say [LOCKED] on there. The second sister is Shiro Neko, though I''ll just call her Shiro, who''s the Goddess of Life and Death. She rules over the Beastmen race. Seem she always stealing heavenly fruits from Luna''s garden even with Divine rank traps due to dismantling them. I''m guessing that Shiro''s class is some sort of Rogue class since they''re usually the ones with dismantle skills in games. The third sister was Alice the Goddess of Dungeons. She was the one who made sure there were dungeons alive and governs any race that they create. Seems Luna was mad when her bedroom got turned into a Divine rank torture dungeon and being trapped in there for 5,000 years with all sorts of methods. Ouch, I don''t think I''d been able to last a day being tortured. Heck, I''d got payback the moment I got out and torture this bitch myself if I was in Luna''s shoes. The fourth sister was Emily the Goddess of Luck. Though there wasn''t much information about her sadly. The final sister was the most interesting of them all. Her name was Kymael and she was Goddess of GodSlayers and governs over them. She is the most dangerous out of the five sisters and is Luna''s twin sister. It seems Luna was jealous that she had a full female army of GodSlayers. I know I''d be jealous also. Though I do also find it ironic that there''s a goddess who governs the enemies of all gods. Though why did Kymael only have an army of female GodSlayers? Sigh, so many questions but nobody to answer them. It seems Luna ranting is finally done. [.... Oops, guess I wrote too much. Anyway I got some unique positions for your attribute since your past memories seems to slightly affect the choices the system can give you. Also if you wanna see your status just say Status and the window should pop up since I finally hooked your soul to the Main system. From Luna.] I turned the letter to the back to see what Luna mentioned earlier and wow those were some unique Attributes. Select Goddess Attribute (May select 1 attribute): Goddess of Love Goddess of Trash Talk Goddess of ROLEPLAY Goddess of HipHop Goddess of Rock&Roll Goddess of Dance Goddess of Internet Goddess of Disco .............................. When I accidentally touched one of the dots before the last option it gave me a whole new set of options. There were 8 option on one page and 30 dots. That would be total of 240 attributes I can select!!! "What the Hell?!" I accidentally shouted when I realized all the options I could choose. I spent the next few hours looking through the options. On the last page I found 2 attributes that I found interesting. Goddess Attributes: Goddess of Attributes Harem Queen Goddess The Harem Queen attribute was exactly what it meant. I''d have an easier time creating a harem, but it had some demerits such as having +40% chance of getting a Yandere type person in your harem. I know for a fact that those types of people are very dangerous due to all the anime I watched. Though the bright side is that I can choose what gender it targets so I won''t accidentally get some stupid male harem. Hey?! I''m a guy still even if I will become a girl when I''m reborn. Well if that makes any sense. The other option gave me +10% Affinity with all attributes and allowed me to have 1 sub-Goddess attribute. So that meant I could choose both options if I chose this one as my main attribute. The only problem would be that it''d take 50% of its max potential so that was a pain in my opinion. Especially since all the combat related attributes I could choose needed 100% or else they''d be useless. Though it would help with that Yandere demerit so I guess I''ll try that out. As I circled the Goddess of Attribute with the pen I was given a choice of selecting a sub-attribute which I obviously chose Harem Queen Goddess. Though I only chose these options since even the combat classes were stuff like Goddess of FOOD FIGHT and other crappy stuff. Though they did have funny benefits. Now I guess I should try what Luna said to do. "Status" I muttered and a gold color screen appeared in front of me. ______________________ Name: Celina Gender: Female Title: Goddess of Attributes, Harem Queen Goddess, ???, ??? Race: Elf form Goddess Class: The Archer* Skill: [Bow Summoning*] God Lvl: 1 HP: 2,040,320 (4,080,640) MP: 4,450,390 (8,900,780) STR: 5500 (11,000) DEX: 4600 (46,000) INT: 9635 (19270) Charm: 10,000 (20,000) Luck: [Must be reborn to gain access] HP regen: 200 HP/second Mana regen: 850 Mana/second Magic Attributes Affinity: Nature: 50% Water: 50% Earth: 50% Wind: 10% Fire: 20% Dark: 35% Light: 35% ???: 100% ________________________________ So that''s how my stats are. I am so OP!! I''m guessing the numbers on the left are my original stats before the Class bonus and everything else. Though those ??? marks are kinda annoying. Also 100% affinity to an unknown magic? That''s just weird and suspicious. Though I might know where that came from. I clicked on Harem Queen Goddess title to look at the information again. Harem Queen Goddess: A unique title/ Goddess Attribute that''s must better then the Harem God who died of Divine rank STD. This title gives many benefits to the one who owns it. Here are the benefits: The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.+25% chance of a male/female falling in love with you. + Option: Can select who this title targets. Male, Female, Both +20% of finding a Yandere who''ll join your harem. + Limit size of Harem can be unlimited, but not highly recommended. +5% have a noble fall in love with you. + Unlocked unique magic [Passive only] [Must figure out by yourself] + 45% Loyalty boost from whoever is in your Harem. + Decrease chance of harem killing each other over jealousy by 10% + 10,000 Charm Yep, I was right about this being the culprit. While I was at it I selected it to only target women. This may seem good and all, but it''s gonna make life tough. Imagine when I enter a town and they see me. They will go chasing after me like in t*nsei M*yo W*r of Gem*nar main character I bet. Luckily the bonuses all decreased by 50%. As I was thinking about this I realized my chest seemed heavy for some reason. I looked down and I was stunned. Instead of my rock hard abs I obtain from my previous life I now had breasts. Realizing this I quickly pulled my pant down and looked for the little me. It was gone.... I fainted on the spot. While Celina was on the ground unconscious a beautiful woman who''s beauty would cause wars appeared in the room. ???: " Now Celina it''s time I sent you to the mortal realm.... Eh?!" The woman noticed Celina was on the floor with her clothes in a mess. This caused the woman to blush greatly. ???: "This woman has no shame at all!! But she''s kinda beautiful...... Wait, get yourself together Luna it''s just her charm stat that''s high!" Her body though reacted differently then what she expected. The woman while saying this walked up to Celina and lay next to her. Luna: "Wow, she even smells good..... No Luna!! You must resist temptation!!" Even as her mind protest her body clings to Celina and she stays there for hours. Though while Luna was arguing with herself to get away from Celina a faint gold image of a collar appeared for a second before vanishing. Luna would''ve noticed if not for staring at Celina chest the whole time. After some time Celina woke up back in the bed. Once her sleepy mind woke up she started crying as if someone forced her to kill her own puppy. If someone was watching they would''ve found it tragically heartbreaking. Celina finally stopped crying after a while and got off the bed. "sigh, well I can''t do anything about that for now. Well let check my skills. If this is a game then I guess I should say Skill List?" A new gold screen appeared before Celina. ________________________ [Bow Summoning] [Arrow Creation] [Bow Prodigy] __________________ Well let''s see what these new skills can do. I opened both skills descriptions. [Arrow Creation]: Allows you to create an arrow out of pure mana or other materials if you have them. + create Common rank Arrow for 10 Mana, 50 MP for Mana Arrow + Create an Uncommon rank Arrow for 100 Mana, 500 MP for Mana Arrow + Create a Rare rank Arrow for 1000 Mana, 5000 MP for Mana Arrow + Create a Unique rank Arrow for 10,000 Mana, 50,000 MP for Mana Arrow + Create a Legendary rank Arrow for 100,000 Mana, 500,000 MP for Mana Arrow + Create a Mythical Rank Arrow for 1,000,000 Mana, 5,000,000 MP for Mana Arrow + Create Exotic Rank Arrow for 10,000,000 Mana, 50,000,000 MP for Mana Arrow. + 1% chance to summon Origin rank Arrow for 100,000,000 Mana, 500,000,000 for Mana Arrow. +0.0000000001% to summon Divine Rank Arrow for 1,000,000,0000 Mana, 5,000,000,000 Mana Arrow. + [LOCKED] [Bow Prodigy]: You have talent as an archer that hasn''t been seen in the last 500 years. +20% damage with bow +20% Accuracy +15% Critical rate +30% Critical damage I found these two skills interesting.The Prodigy passive skill seems simple but was pretty dam strong if you think about it. With my current mana I could create one Mythical rank Mana Arrow, but 8 of them if I have the right materials to create them. I was happy though since I now had a magic spell I could use. Let''s try it! "Mythical Mana arrow!" A golden arrow of pure energy appeared in front of me. I cheered for my success, but that turned out to be a big mistake as I would soon realize. The arrow shot towards a wall and started bouncing around the room similar to the chair I threw yesterday. "oh shit...." I said this as I realized the arrow was heading towards me. I tried to move to the side but the arrow was too fast. Before I realized the arrow slammed into my chest and then disappeared. The only evidence left was my ruined shirt and the pain I was feeling. "Health Status" A gold screen appeared with some terrifying numbers. _____________________________ HP: 1,029,810/4,080,640 _____________________________ Just a single mythical rank arrow took away 3/4 of my health. Dam, luckily I couldn''t try using any of the higher rank arrows or a bow with it otherwise I''d most likely be dead again. Sigh, I think I''ll limit myself to Rare rank mana arrows for now. As I was thinking this two doors appeared on one of the walls with some writing on them. I walked up to them and read what they said. "Door one: Reborn as an infant, Door 2: reborn as an adult (Will go to compatible body)" Wow, did I hit the jackpot? Usually those characters in light novels never have a choice in how they are reborn and 99% of them will be reborn as an infant. Haha! Now I won''t have to live through those dam embarrassing moments!! I don''t care if I take someone else''s body since I''ll finally get out of this stupid room! As I went through the second door I thought I heard some giggling before I once again blacked out. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello peeps. Here Chapter 2 already. Once again please tell me if there''s any errors or ways I could improve my writing. Also if someone could give me some kind of link to how make table that''d be helpful. Also i read people comments so give me your opinion on how I''m doing please >_< There are some reasons for giving Celina the Harem Queen title, but you guys will see later. I know I''m laughing already from what I''m planning. (^~^)/) Chapter 3: Chapter 3 As I slowly woke up I heard the sounds of birds chirping. "Where the hell am I?" I said as I looked around, only to see trees and bushes. Dam, I''m stuck in some kind of forest I guess. As I got up I noticed I was wearing some sort of leather armor, and a black hood. Then I saw something that shocked me. RED HAIR!! I had freaking long red hair!!! I seriously need to find some sort of lake soon and see how I look. Hope I don''t look like a Barbie doll. That''d give me nightmares. Wait, maybe I could kill someone with it? As I was thinking about this stupid idea I heard two loud roars behind me. I quickly hid behind a tree and looked to see what it was. "What the hell?!" I unconsciously screamed in a very girly voice. In a small meadow stood two creatures that couldn''t be found on Earth. A 5 meter large black triceratops with red lightning covering its body on the left side. On the right was a freaking 3 meter large Velociraptor with blue flames. I hoped they kill each other cause I don''t want either of them to see me. Oh the fight is starting! The velociraptor sprinted across the meadow, leaving a trailing blaze in its path. As it got near the triceratops it spat out several fireballs from its mouth. The triceratops horns were glowing hot red since the beginning of the battle now unleashed whatever kind of energy they held. Two red hot lighting shot out of it''s horns and smashed through the fireballs. The velociraptor unfortunately couldn''t completely dodge the attack and a third of its tail was burned to a crisp. The velociraptor got enraged and its whole body turned into blue flames as it charged at the triceratops. It kinda looked like a running Phoenix, but with razor sharp teeth and claws. The triceratops created some kind of barrier with the red lightning, but that didn''t stop the raptor from shattering it and slamming its flaming jaws in its neck. Lots of blood started gushing out of the wound. I''m guessing an artery got cut, but I''m no doctor and I''ve definitely never seen the anatomy of a dinosaur. Dam, only been 30 seconds and they already unleash crazy attacks. During their battle I was climbing a tree to get a better view. As I climbed to a good height I saw something interesting. As the two dinosaurs fought the triceratops tail was glowing so red it slowly started turning black. I don''t have a good feeling about this..... Luckily their battle was heading away from where I was located, otherwise I wouldn''t have the joy of watching this epic battle. Too bad I don''t have a camera to video tape this. My cousin would kill me if she knew I saw this without her since she''s one of those dinosaur fanatic. I felt slightly depressed thinking about my cousin. I wonder if I''ll ever seen my family again. Do they think I''m dead? Do they miss me? Did they forget about me? I put those questions aside as I continued to watch the battle. Though I''m surprised my vision is this good. Guess it''s some hidden perk from having either Archer class or being a Goddess. About an hour later the triceratops slammed it tail to the ground as the velociraptor tried to go for the finishing blow. "BOOM!!" That was all I heard as everything within 200 meter radius around the triceratops exploded in red lightning, causing tons of debris to shoot into the air. "Ouch!" Dam it, stupid branch just hit me in the head! As I rubbed the red mark on my head the debris finally cleared and the result was devastating. There was a large crater with the triceratops and raptor in the center. The raptor blue flames were gone, revealing a bloody and most likely dead raptor. On the other hand, the triceratops was on its knee barely alive. Seems that last attack took all its energy. Too bad for him since he''ll probably soon die from blood lost. Lucky for me though since I now had a food source. I think I''ll put it out of its misery. I know I said I wouldn''t use this spell, but I''m so not getting near that field while it''s still alive. As those old elderly people say, A corner dinosaur is more dangerous then a normal one. Or something like that. "Mystical mana arrow" I made sure it was aimed towards the neck wound since that seemed to be the best spot to hit. The golden arrow shot toward the weakened dinosaur and pierced its neck. "RRRRRROOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!" The triceratops unleashed some sort of sonic boom roar as the arrow pierced it neck and all the tree within 50 meter radius disappeared. Then the triceratops collapse. Dam, it had a suicidal skill. Good thing I had a long range skill. Then a gold screen appeared. ________________________________ You have slain Tricer the Ancient Triceratops Demi-God. +Gain 9032 levels worth of Exp. -Exp gained is reduced to 500 levels worth for only dealing the finish blow while it was at 0.001% Health and dealing 0.5% Damage. +Divinity stat unlocked with 1000 points. +Gain 1000 Divinity +Title Gained: Demi-God slayer +365 Intelligence for stealthily waiting for right moment to kill. ______________________________ Dam, well that''s a lot of level ups even if I can''t get it all through kill-stealing. Though seriously?! Only 0.5% damage from Mythical rank arrow?! Looks like I''ll have to be careful since it seems I won''t be able to go wild around here. "Let''s check my stats!" I said happily since I knew I''d have lots of points to upgrade my stats. ______________________ Name: Celina Gender: Female Title: Goddess of Attributes, Harem Queen Goddess, ???, ???, Demi-God Slayer, Spouse of Luna Race: Elf form Goddess Class: The Archer* Skill: [Bow Summoning*] God Lvl: 501 HP: 2,040,320 (4,080,640) MP: 4,620,000 (9,240,000) STR: 5500 (11,000) DEX: 4600 (46,000) INT: 10,000 (20,000) Charm: 10,000 (20,000) Luck: 0 [777] (1554) Divinity: 2000 (4,000) Unused points: 2500 HP regen: 200 HP/second Mana regen: 850 Mana/second Magic Attributes Affinity: Nature: 50% Water: 50% Earth: 50% Wind: 10% Fire: 20% Dark: 35% Light: 35% ???: 100% ________________________________ I hope that title isn''t what I think it is....

That means I need be level 1001!!! DAM IT ALL!!" I screamed with all my might, scaring any nearby animals away. And trust me, an angry goddess''s scream is something you don''t want to hear. For an hour I cursed in every profanity I knew until I finally calmed down. After calming down I realized some of the benefits to this title though. It gave me a free revival once a day. This title also gave me 777 to my Luck stat which is doubled to 1554 due to my Class doubling all stats besides dexterity. That meant I would have had 0 luck without it and would probably died when I saw those two dinosaurs when I woke up. I knew how important luck was since I lost a lot of poker games in the past due to not having it. Sad how this world taunts me with that 0 right there. Is my luck really that bad without outside help? After a gloomy moment I tapped on my other new title. ____________________ Title: Demi-God Slayer Obtained by having killed a Demi-God. +20% damage against Demi-Gods. +20% resistance against Demi-Gods attacks. ___________________ Well that was simple explanation. Was whoever typing these screen being lazy? As I thought of this a new screen appeared __________________ Shut up you bastard. I was on my lunch break when I made that. _________________ WHAT THE HELL?! How am I supposed to know you''re a living being?! I can''t know everything in this world! ____________ You could''ve just asked dumbass. Now hurry up I wanna eat my lunch! ?? >:( ____________ Dam, screen is a bitch, but seriously how could I''ve know to ask this? Hell the screen even has Emojis! This is just creepy. I tap the divinity stat and a new screen appeared. ____________ Divinity Stat: Similar to Mana and Ki that mortals use, but much more pure and powerful. Can only be used with Divine rank spells. ___________ Well that wasn''t much help from the obvious. Also why only divine rank spells? If it''s similar to mana and Ki I should be able to use it for any spell I have. I felt that some information was intentionally left out. Guess I''ll need to head to a library to research the information. Why can''t this world have Internet?! ____________ Actually there is Internet. Though I''m one of the few beings who can connect to it. ? ___________ What?! Bloody bastard, give me access to the Internet then! _________ No! I don''t want my membership access being revoked! ? ________ Once I get my hands on you you''re so dead. While I was trying to think of methods to persuade this screen to give me access to the Internet I walked up to the two corpse. Feel bad for whoever has to clean this mess up. This place went from nice forest to wasteland fast. Anyway, as I got next to the two corpses a new screen appeared. ________ Would you like to convert corpses into resources, or use both materials to create a high rank weapon? Either choice will place items in inventory. Resource Weapon _______ Well that''s new. I should''ve realized there was an inventory, this is a game like fantasy world. I selected resources and both corpse disappeared into thin air. Now how do I open up the inventory? _______________ Just say Storage Displace. Sigh, why do I have to deal with this beautiful bastard? >_> ______________ I think I''ll just ignore that last comment. "Storage display" As I said this a screen appeared. ____________ Inventory: 7,802.5 kilo of raw Demi-God meat 4,780.7 kilo of burnt Demi-God meat 1 Demi-God Triceratops monster core 1 Demi-God Velociraptor monster core 1 Demi-God Triceratops skeleton 1 Demi-God Velociraptor skeleton 1 Demi-God Triceratops skin 1 Demi-God Velociraptor skin 10 pieces of Rye bread __________ Wow, that a lot of meat. Least I won''t have to worry about eating only Rye bread. I was forced to eat that as a kid and that food is disgusting. As I was thinking this my stomach started to growl. Guess I''ll be eating the burnt meat since that''s already cooked. I selected the burnt meat and took out enough for a decent meal. I hesitantly tried the meat and surprisedly it was delicious. I quickly ate my delicious lunch. I guess I should try the Bow summoning skill now. Hmm, I''ll try the Mythical Bow summoning since I seriously need a strong bow if I''m to survive in this forest, or whatever I''m in. "Bow Summoning, Mythical Rank" As I say this I felt as if I ran a couple miles nonstop. A large blue sphere appears in front of me on the ground. After a few seconds it disappeared to reveal a simple looking black longbow. As I pick it up a black screen appears. _______________ Cupid''s Cursed Dark BowChikaBowWow (SEALED): Mythical+ Rank A bow designed to forcefully enslave anyone pierced by an arrow shot from it. Cupid used this to enslave dozens of goddesses before he was finally killed by his own bow after it became sentient which ironically turned out to be his long lost sister who soul accidentally got trapped in it. Attack: 2,000,000-12,000,000 EFFECTS: Can enslave anyone shot by it''s arrow. This can only be used once per century until deemed worthy as its new owner. Drain 400,000 Health and Mana per second while being used until deemed worthy. ??? ??? Restriction: 8,000 Dexterity _____________ Ok, as good as this bow is its too dam dangerous to use for now. Hell this bow would kill me if I''m using it for more then 10 seconds! Also why is part of the name BowChikaBowWow?! Seriously? Though why was the screen black instead? Well I''ll just hold one to this for now and wait until my mana is full before trying again since I was running low even with this decent mana regeneration speed. I put the bow into my inventory and climb up the closest tree and took a nap for an hour or two in it. What? This place is dangerous if you hadn''t noticed. Day 1 and I''m seeing crazy dinosaurs fighting. No way am I''m sleeping on the ground. Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author. When I woke up I tried summoning two more bows of Mythical Rank. The same thing happened with first bow, but they hung on a tree branch in front of me. I go pick up the first Bow which is a beautifully carved bow made out of some kind of mineral. ____________ Jokester Bow: Mythical Rank Created as a joke gift for when a mortal asked God Hades for help to avenge his family. Made from Mythical rank ore named Nirvana Grail Attack: 1,000,000-2,500,000 Requirement: Can only be used after you died. 2,000 Dexterity ___________ Haha, that God Hades is such a douche for doing that. What the point in getting this when the poor guy had to die to use it? ___________ The man who obtained it became an Undead to wield the Bow. Sadly he died since this bow had hidden requirement that you must not be undead since it''ll destroy you. __________ Wow, that''s such bad ending for that guy. Lucky I''m not an undead. Though that requirement is gonna be a pain. I don''t wanna kill myself to use this bow. What if I find something dangerous that kills me later today? I''d have used up my revive already so that''s be end game for me. Well let check this other bow then. I grabbed the second bow , after storing the Jokester Bow, which was a pale pink color and radiates girly all over it and the screen appears. _____________ Amazon Woman Nina Bow: Mythical++ Rank Created by legendary female blacksmith Wilma Everglades Enitre Dosin Made from Mythical Rank ore Maiden Tears Bow string from Mythical++ Rank BOSS SpiderQueen silk Craft time: 2 years and 7 months Once belonged to legendary woman from Amazon tribe which consist of purely women.

Why the hell is the only bow I summoned that''s actually usable have to taunt me for all the things that went wrong when that goddess summoned me here?! Also why is there so much information on this bow but not the others? I didn''t see any special skills on the other two, but they were definitely made by gods. __________________ That is due to one of them being sealed and the other being a prank item. Though if you hadn''t noticed the screen for that Cupid bow was black idiot. That meant it''s rank has been Demoted due to it being sealed. Also there is this much information due to my cousin being married to an Amazon woman and no I can''t tell you the Amazon tribe''s location. :P _________________ Well that answered some questions I''ve been wondering. After climbing down the tree I started practicing summoning weaker bows since the time to summon a bow was pretty long. Anywhere between 5 to 20 minutes to summon each bow. I''ll need weaker bows anyway if I don''t want draw attention and get mugged when I find a town. I practiced for 3 whole hours, summoning thousands of bows from Common to Unique rank at the same time thanks to my large mana pool. Sadly 99.5% of all the bows I summoned were either broken or too old to be used anymore. The ones in good condition did only had attacks ranging from the weakest being 60 to strongest having around 2500 damage. As I stored the bows I asked the Screen a question that''s been on my mind for a while. "Hey screen, can you tell me some things about this world?" I asked while curios on how it''d react. I pulled out some more burnt meat to eat. _____________ You didn''t read the introduction book? 0-0 _____________ "Introduction bo-" I saw but then suddenly started choking on the meat I ate. I luckily spat it out and survived that deadly sneak attack. Also screen, no I didn''t read anything. All I saw was a girly book that had title Sweet Home on it. I think that was some kind of cliche romance novel and I don''t really have an interest in those. _____________ You''re a dumbass!! That was the introduction book that Goddess Luna created!!! ____________ After that I was stuck being taught by Screen the history of this world for next 4 hours. __________ Now give me a summary of what I taught you or I''ll give you a history lesson on Goblin reproductions with Elven women. >:D _________ I''ll skip the boring stuff and say what''s needed to know. This planet is called Nestra and is about 200 times larger then Earth. The water to land ratio is the same as Earth was. The common currency is copper, silver, gold, white gold, and platinum. The ratio from copper to silver is 100 to 1 and that ratio is the same as currency goes up. A common family of 4 can live a year with 5 gold coins while a family of nobles live with 10 white gold coins. The platinum coins are used by rich merchants and the empires for large trades. There is a special coin though called a Sharite coin. It''s a 5 inch rainbow colored coin that can only be found in exotic rank dungeons and higher. It''s used to by emperors and empress to buy items from their Race''s Goddess or from another one who they''re on good terms with. A Sharite coin is valued at 200 Platinum coins and only a max of 5 coins can be found in a single dungeon until it resets again after being conquered. You can buy exotic rank items and higher, but they''re all extremely expensive and powerful. Even the cheapest weapon cost a whopping 50 Sharite coins while the most expensive cost 5,000,000 Sharite coins. Though the Screen did tell me that you can get that most expensive weapon by looking for it in one of the Divine dungeon, but she doesn''t know which one. There are 5 continent with each being extremely large, possibly larger then Pangea in Earth''s prehistoric history. The western continent named Trante is controlled by the humans, who ironically aren''t that much different from Earth''s humans in their greed for power and such. It''s ruled by Empress Susan since her husband mysteriously died a few hours after their marriage. She is one of the most powerful close combat Mage in human history. Though there are rumors that she has a talent for poisons that haven''t been seen in last 1,000 years of human history. Though Screen told me the rumors was false and it was actually in last 10,000 of planet Nestra history. Dam what a scary woman. The eastern continent named Jeniu is ruled by the demihuman, or basically the beast men race. Their leader is Empress Yuna who''s a legendary 9-tail fox demihuman. Interesting thing is that they select their Emperor or Empress by having a tournament when the former ones die. Then the winner will become ruler, but can be challenged to take their throne. This meant that Empress Yuna was currently the strongest person in their continent currently. Then we have the southern continent Zetra. It''s ruled by the demon race with its ruler being Empress Pandora. This Empress is a rare succubus variant that used some powerful magic to become the ruler. Though it isn''t known exactly what kind of magic it was since everyone she''s used it one were killed and given to her pet tigers as snacks. Next is the northern continent Cinder which is ruled by the dwarfs. The best blacksmiths usually wereThey''re ruled by Emperor Netro. He''s a good and wise emperor who''s ruled over the continent for last 150 years. Though he will die in a few weeks due to old age. His 8th daughter Emily will take over the country as the new empress since his three sons have swore an oath not to become emperor in order to try and surpass their father in blacksmithing. Then there is the central continent named Eterna. The most dangerous and mysterious continent of them all. It''s ruled by the high elves and dark elves as two separate empires. The high elves are ruled by Empress Lucy who''s known as the best Elven archer in the world currently. She''s ruled for about 700 years and has been able to lead the empire to prosperity. The Dark Elven empire is ruled by Empress Asuna. She''s one of the best assassins in the world and is payed by other empires to help take out nobles that have very high influence. She is also a high class thief and dungeon explorer. Her personal wealth is estimated to be 15% of the total wealth of the world. The dark elves and high elves are always blocking each other''s paths whether in trade routes, peace agreements with other countries, or even using taxes. They''ve had a bad long history with each other. Though there was one funny piece of information that Screen taught me. Both of the Empresses are step-sisters. Except for those two and now me there is nobody else that knows. Now I might have a bargaining chip if I''m ever captured by the dark elves. Oh, you''re curious as to where I''m at currently? Well I''ll tell you then. I''m in the one thing that keeps the two empires from going to total war. The Sacred trees of the Ancestors. It a large magical forest dungeon that divides continent in half and has some of the most dangerous magical creatures in the world. Though there are some paths that are considered safe, but they can only be found during certain times of the months. Otherwise you got a death wish if you enter this forest unless you''re strong like those Demi-God dinosaurs. This dungeon is a Divine rank, but due to the difficultly in it never being beaten it''s been given the title Adventurers Grave. Next we have the ranking system. It''s used for everything from items, monster difficulties, to even guild adventurers ranks. Yes, there is an adventurer guild set in every continent. Those Demi-God dinosaurs were only at the Exotic Rank difficulty so they aren''t even close to top of the food chain in this forest. Also all emperors and empress are usually in the Exotic or Origin Rank for their adventurer rank except for special situations. It seems the goddesses wanted to make it easier for the people to live so they created the Adventurer Guild. The Adventurer Guild is a special government that can''t be controlled by any empire since they were created by all the goddesses. It basically meant that if you harmed the guild you''d become an enemy of all the goddesses which in return made you the enemy of all your own people. There was one foolish demon emperor of Origin Rank who burned down an adventurer guild while drunk. The next day he was found dead with a special cursed weapon from the six remaining goddess. Though I think that''s all that''s currently important for now. That good enough Screen? __________ Yea, that''ll do for now. Also call me Lucinda. It''s annoying if you keep calling me Screen all the time. >_> _________ "You''re a girl?!" I was shocked since during the time I was training my bow summoning to summon a new bow faster I kept seeing screens with perverted comments. Honestly I thought it was some perverted old man behind the screen. __________ Hey I heard that you idiot! __________ At least that''s one less thing to worry about. As I was thinking about things to do I saw the sun setting. _________ You better hide before it gets dark brat. ________ "Why should I?" This was the first time the screen, I mean Lucinda actually gave me a warning. ________ Monsters in this world gain 50% boost to all stats during the night. It''s also the time when the real strong monsters come out to hunt. _______ Dam, well I better get off the ground I guess. I climbed one of the large tree and hid in a hole in the trunk. I barely fit through due to my chest. Seriously, why did my breast have to be so big?! I think I was a size E or something. _______ Actually you''re a size H. ______ Don''t tell me stuff like that!! I don''t need to know! I quickly went to sleep in hopes of forgetting what Lucinda said. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks for reading this chapter. Please keep reading and giving me your opinions. I want to make better stories for everyone to enjoy. Well almost everyone. Can''t satisfy everyone you know. Please inform me of any grammar errors and such. I make sure to read your opinions and will reply when I can. Chapter 4 "I''m so gonna kill whoever made this forest" I said while slightly annoyed. _________ Don''t blame someone for a battle between the Aqua Monkey tribe and Blazing Baboon tribes last night. _________ Like Lucinda mentioned, there was a battle outside the tree I was hiding it. There strange monkeys were launching some kind of water magic while the baboons were spitting out purple flames from their mouths like primitive flamethrower. Also, there wasn''t only a few dozen but thousands of them! The only reason the battle finally stopped was due to another magical beast that was much more powerful then both tribes combined. It was some kind of dark red rabbit with pinkish cheeks and small amount of electricity around its body. It was so adorable I wanted to run and hug it until it released a huge shockwave, killing hundreds of those primates in a flash. Luckily it quietly left while dragging a few extra fried corpses. "Lucinda, what was that magical beast from earlier?" I asked, still slightly shocked about what happened moments ago, no pun intended. ______________ That was the Origin Rank Zabrabbit. One of the dead gods made it after reading some books in your world cause he was bored. It was originally a Common rank, but their rank rose quickly by getting struck by lighting or living in highly dense mana areas like this forest. Though they aren''t easy to find anymore. _____________ So a freaking rabbit is able to be that powerful?! what the hell! That not fair! Why am I so weak compare to a rat?! _____________ You are only lvl 501. To mortals that''d be high level, but for anything in Mythical rank that is below average. Also your an Archer not a Mage you idiot. Try using that mana arrow with a bow for once! ____________ Sigh, she doesn''t have to be so blunt about it. Well let loot these corpses!! After quickly eating some burnt meat I carefully exist the tree I was hiding in and climbed down the branches as quickly as I could. Dam those monkeys made it look easy. Once I finally arrived at the bottom I started collecting all the corpses on the ground. I did this for a few hours with no interruption. Seems that red rabbit or whatever scared off any beasts nearby which was great since I didn''t want to become someone''s dinner. "Now let check Inventory", I said slightly proud of myself. ____________ Inventory: 15,927.5 kilo of raw Demi-God meat 6811.7 kilo of burnt Demi-God meat 1 Demi-God Triceratops monster core 1 Demi-God Velociraptor monster core 681 Spring Monkey monster core 582 Curse Flame Baboon monster core 1 Demi-God Triceratops skeleton 1 Demi-God Velociraptor skeleton 681 Spring Monkey monster skeleton 582 Curse Flame Baboon monster skeleton 1 Demi-God Triceratops skin 1 Demi-God Velociraptor skin 681 Spring Monkey monster fur 582 Curse Flame Baboon monster fur 10 pieces of Rye bread __________ I quickly realized something important. I had enough food to last forever, but I didn''t have any water. ___________ Now you realize Baka? Seriously, did all the nutrients go to your bust instead of your brain? ___________ Once I find this woman behind this screen I''m so gonna teach her some manners she won''t forget... I started walking in the same direction that the red rat went off to. Yea, I''m calling it red rat from now on. Zabrabbit sounds too funny for something that dangerous. I figured that if I follow the rat it''s presence will keep all the other predators away from me. After an hour of walking through the forest, realizing how truly small I was compared to these ancient trees, I soon find a clearing up ahead. In the middle of the clearing was a large lake that seemed to stretch for few dozen miles before I saw trees in the distance. Around it were small trees about my size that were full to the brim with black flowers. In the lake were many of these flowers, floating peacefully on the water, giving it a calm feeling as if this place was safe. As I stare at the lake I soon realize that I can finally see how I look like now. As that though struck me like lightning, I ran up to the lake as quickly as I could, avoiding the large roots that lay hidden in the grass. I was in for a world of shock. In the reflection was a beautiful woman with long crimson red hair, sky blue eyes, and long pointed ears. This was a beauty unlike anything I''ve ever seen in my old world. With the flowers floating around, it seemed as if it was a painting instead of an actual person. "I look beautiful!! Just who body did I take to look like this?!" I asked while still shocked about my face that I''ve now finally seen. ________________ You took over the body of Princess Celina. Missing for last 120 years and daughter of Empress Lucy. Yes, you both have the same name. The System made that a requirement for your new body. Also don''t worry, the princess died a few minutes before you took over due to a curse from an Origin rank Curse Golem. _____________ I am a princess?! How the heck out of all people I get the body of a princess?! _____________ Your Luck stat duh you dumbass ____________ "Sheesh, why you got be so rude girl? Not like I did anything to you" I said, slightly annoyed for being called dumb. At that moment a new screen appear. _____________ Title ??? can now be revealed. Title ??? Is now Title: Princess of High Elves ____________ I quickly opened the title, feeling that I''d soon regret it. ___________ title: Princess of High Elves Given to daughter of Empress of High elves. Effects: + Respect from all High elves + Royalty + Able to aim for the throne against Princess Helen If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.- Many nobles will try to marry or capture you for political gains. ___________ Wow, being a princess seems more dangerous then expected. Lucinda, can I not be a princess? ___________ Yes, but you must meet Empress Lucy and present a branch from the Tree of Life to be able to do that. __________ "So where''s this tree?" I asked while drinking some water from the lake. __________ Center of this forest... __________ "Dam it! Why can''t things be easy for me?!" I yelled out loud, creating an echo that lasted for a while. This would turn out to be a huge mistake. the lake suddenly exploded, creating a large pillar of water in the air for a few moments. Then in my sight was a large 15 meter black scaled serpent with bloody red eyes. It''s fangs were as long as my Amazon bow, making them seem more like large swords. On it''s scaly back were large black batlike wings that seemed to stretch a dozen meters, creating a large shadow over me where I stood. ________ Suggestion, RUN!!! ________ That exactly what I did. I ran away from the winged serpent as fast as I could. As I ran I heard trees being smashed like twigs as I was jumping over huge tree roots and charging through bushes, feeling small thorns scratch me a few times. My feet were hurting slightly from running bare footed, but it was either suffering a little pain or enjoying a life in a snake''s stomach which I''d surely hate.. I looked behind and saw the serpent was only 20 meters behind be and getting closer then ever. As I make a turn around a tree I slipped on the grass. Dam it, why couldn''t the goddess have given me some sneakers! Within moments the serpent was mere meters away, striking to take a bite out of me. "I''m so dead" I said knowing that my second death was near. Then something flashed over my head and pierced the serpent right between the eyes, causing blood to splatter everywhere on the ground with some covering my feet. The snake trembled before collapsing to the ground, obviously now dead. "What just happened?" I said, confused as to what occurred. "What happened is that I just saved your life once again." a unknown voice said, filled with slight annoying attitude. I turned around and saw a beautiful woman with dark skin and elf ears. She was wearing dark green color leather armor that seem built for speed as it only covered the vital areas. In her hands was a large purple bow with a thick red string. The bow itself gave off some kind of dim glow, but other then that it seemed like a normal bow to me. Lucinda this a dark elf, right? ____________ Bingo, you win a prize! Nothing :P ___________ Shut up Lucinda! "Thanks for saving me, but aren''t you a dark elf?" I said with slight fear and curiosity. Fear due to my Class penalty with Dark elves, and curious as to why she even saved me. The woman looked at me like I''ve gone insane. "Mistress Celina, of course you know what I am. I''ve been your slave for last 5 years you bumbling idiot." The woman said while slightly annoyed. As she mentioned this I noticed she had a thick steel collar on her neck with some unknown symbols that would occasionally flash. I have a slave? When did this happen?! I never even met this woman! _____________ She probably the slave to previous body owner. Luckily she can''t tell it''s not the Celina she knows yet. _____________ "So what was your name again?" I asked carefully and quietly, hoping I didn''t trigger another death flag. "it''s Maria, Mistress please stop forgetting my name. It''s annoying you know" Maria said while sighing. I got off the ground and went towards the corpse. Maria quickly went and blocked my path. "Mistress, I''ll go and dismantle the corpse. You don''t know how to do that remember" Maria said while giving a forced smile. I wonder if the princess did a horrible job dismantling before I came. My inventory automatically does that for me. Though I guess I should keep that hidden for now since I wouldn''t want to somehow blow my cover. The deceased princess seemed to have been an airhead or rather forgetful. That should help in my act to convince her I''m her mistress or whatever. Though this just kept confirming that I wasn''t a man anymore. "Fine, just dismantle it quickly. I don''t want stay out in the open for too long" I said while feeling uncomfortable as Maria was staring at me. What? Try having a beauty glare at you in the eye and say your not imtimidated by it. I dare you! _______ I didn''t say anything. _______ Sorry Lucina, bit on edge after nearly being killed again. I went to sit on a large tree root, laying my bowhile Maria started dismantling the serpent and putting parts of the corpse in a bag, not even sparing the blood which she carefully collected and stored in glass jars with strange symbols carved in. Hey Lucinda, how is she fitting all those parts in that small bag? She already put in like 30 kilo of meat already. ________ We seriously need to get you the Identification Skill later. Also, that''s a inter-dimensional time storage. Or called storage bag. It''s a more primitive version of your Inventory. This one seems to be a high rank one since it has the Royal seal. _______ As Lucinda said there was a seal on the bag. It was the image of a white Phoenix holding a bow in one claw and what seems to be a white katana in the other. Other then that it seemed like an ordinary cloth bag to me. While chatting with Lucinda I soon realized that Maria was done dismantling and was putting bones into the bag. It''s only been 40 minutes and she''s already got that huge serpent in the bag, leaving nothing but a large patch of red grass which seemed to have absorbed some of the blood. "Mistress, I''ve finished dismantling the Demi-God Imugi" Maria said as she put the last bone into the bag and closed it. Oh, so that''s what it was called. Why didn''t you tell me Lucinda? _________ 1, we were running away and 2, I didn''t know if it was a serpent or a dragon variant so I couldn''t check the Internet or System database. It''s not like I''m able to access any source of data instantly. _________ Sigh, I really wish I could access the internet right now. I then lifted my head, realizing that Maria face inches from mine. "What?!" I fell off the tree root and landed on the ground, knowing that I''d be sore for some time with that fall. "Mistress, did you even hear what I was saying?" Maria was obviously annoyed at being ignored, not even caring that I fell. "Yes Maria, you were saying something about killing some Great fire apes" I said while getting off the ground, dusting off any dirt on my clothes. Maria just sighs as if expecting that answer. "No, I said we are gonna AVOID the great fire apes so it''ll be easier to get to the center of the forest. It''ll be too dangerous fighting against those apes in this forest where they have the advantage. Then we can get that Life tree branch that you wanted to obtain." "Hey Maria, I changed my mind..." I spoke while looking to the forest as if I saw something interesting. "About what mistress?" Maria asked while checking on her bow, testing the strength of the string. Then I dropped the figurative bomb. "I don''t think we need to go to the center of the forest." The forest was dead silence except for the slight rustle of the leaves in the wind. Maria grips her bow tightly, turning her knuckles white. "What are you implying mistress?" Maria face was slightly red from anger, making her look more beautiful, but I couldn''t tell as I felt a cold shiver run through my body.. Cold sweat trickled down my back as I was face with an immense pressure. Is this what bloodlust feels like?! what did she go through to make her this scary?! "Well I thought with all this traveling we could head back to a nearby town and rest for a while. We know the territories of most of the creatures and what they are. With this information we can easily come back to this point faster then our current time and more prepared!" I said this all in one breath as I felt Maria''s bloodlust increase. Minutes went by as Maria glared at me. If there were any animals nearby they''d have been long gone by now. I''m even seeing red smoke around her body. What kind of trick is that?! _________________ Well seems you''ve failed at bluffing dummy. Looks like you pissed her off enough that she manifested her bloodlust into an aura. _________________ "Dam! Well bring it on dam elf!" At that moment I did the only thing anyone would do when faced with an angry woman..... I ran away screaming for help.
