《Overlord》


 A Hot Landing

    You are being shot in the air very fast, passing many birds as if they were standing still in the air you can feel air hitting you very hard but focusing seems really hard now but eventually you start slowly descending.


    thinking you will hit a an ocean but at the horizon there is a an island and more likely you will be land in it well crash is more appropriate, nothing seem special about that island, trees sand and a volcano in the middle.


    Actually that volcano might be the target you are heading too, knowing this might kill you but there is nothing that can be done at the moment actually you form one wing forming to your side it was small that wing, putting it agents the air it made a very small drag.


    Not sure that did anything as you seem to still going to hit the lava as you descending angle is a steep one now, there is no more strength in you but do try hard to keep that wing but the is not easy. Going through the volcano.


    Waking up after god knows how long, you seem to be in a hole, it¡¯s hot in here very hot. But know you feel that you can concentrate now as the vision is clearer now you can see yourself, its wearied how this is happening but you do see yourself from the outside and what is weirder is your body is a blub more like a moving jelly.


    The only thing that concretes the fact that it¡¯s you is you moving and seeing the jelly move. And you are glowing red with bits of black bits most likely that they are burned bits of you.


    This place is not suitable for you that is not hard to conclude so as you go out of the hole, it getting even hotter as if that even possible but from the exit you know why that is the case, it seems the wing thing worked somewhat as hit the inner side of the volcano barley missing the lava. But the black bitts are forming faster in you it seems like this is not a good way to be going through, so going back in the hole.


    This seem like a dead end, but in the end you try digging but that is very hard when you are well not hard, but you do try to make it tougher the part you are using to dig with. It actually became sold after some time making the digging more efficient you are digging at an upward angle as you were descending you did see the angle of that volcano and you are going at a right angle with it as this is the fastest way to get out but your color is changing as its more like purple now the digging commences faster now but you don¡¯t know how much is left and your color is more like blue now and keeps changing to light blue and it¡¯s getting harder to dig something wrong.


    The black bits are gone but your color is getting more transparent what is the problem, then it clicked energy no more energy. As you head back to the inside of the volcano almost reaching the hole the body is almost fully transparent and more liquid that jelly as was only keeping the shape was hard but upon reaching the deadly end of the hole you start taking a lave tan from the volcano the best kind of tan.


    The body is starting to glow red but it¡¯s still transparent, after some time black bits were forming but the color is a bit magenta but the glow is red, interesting it seems you can take the heat energy but it takes time to convert to make it useable for you further its more likely that taking too much unconverted energy damages you may even kill, how much you can take at once needs more testing well it¡¯s a good time if any, as you go further in the cave it¡¯s still hot in here but you can stay here the red glow is dampening and the color is more blue.


    Going back to lava the body starts to glow again, going in and out of the cave about 3 times you notice that the third time changed nothing in either the color nor how much energy you have, as the color is pure blue not transparent at all, seems there is a limit of how much energy you can have at once.


    Going back in the cave to finish the job, luckily there was only less than 2 meters left for some reason you can see about 2.5 meter radius around you not needing line of sight for it so you actually are seeing a boar sniffing the place you are going to come out from.


    This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.This is problem I don¡¯t know if it''s going attack as it assumes I''m an intruder witch I really am, or is it just interested on what is behind the rocks well I think I should play it safe and use the surprise factor while I have it.


    When there was less than half a meter left, you form a sharp hard cone shape pushing it as hard as you can, the hope was it would be sharp enough that it goes through the rocks and stabbing the boar, well that is not what happened as the rocks broke down but not all the way but there is a small hole now.


    The boar jumped back, well there is my surprise factor, well let''s no jump ahead the boar is coming back slowly sniffing the place. While you are in the cave preparing for the next attempt, the moment the boar put it''s eye in the recently formed hole the harp head went in quick thrust right through its head, well the boar stopped moving to say the least.


    As you contract back to the original form there is a bit of blood in but its dissipating, your color got a tiny bit more transparent, so either the blood is damaging you or it''s something else. You didn¡¯t feel any pain so that is possibility is not likely but a test is due so you extend yourself to the blood spilled on the ground surely enough the blood started disappearing slowly but the speed is accelerating. Your color is getting more and more transparent now but you don¡¯t feel that you are losing much energy actually the process feels good.


    As all the blood in the is gone and no more blood in coming out your body is very light blue and transparent, so you go back to the lava recharging the battery so to speak, as you are back going out of the cave under the sunlight near dead boar you attempt something else, trying to engulf the boar but you are to small for that to only the hands for now as expected it''s almost like you are made of acid eating through it, it only took 5 minutes to go through the hole thing.


    You did not get that more transparent now but you feel more powerful.


    Deciding to explore the place going through the trees, you notch that the sun feels really good and refreshing so you actually avoid the tree shadows, while moving thinking back on what happened you decide to try consuming the dirt under you, it does get dissipating in you but you feel nothing changing seems only organic things affect you.


    At that thought you start consuming all the leaves you go past. Noticing small green glow coming from you going brighter with every leave, also the sun feels even better now further the mass seems to be growing. Only leaves did that then why not trying on a whole tree.


    Sliding up through the tree and starting from the top, it''s getting much easier but the tree is big many times your size it took much longer to finish it all, but your mass is 3 times bigger and your body is getting denser than before, excited from the result you start on the other trees.


    After consuming the fourth tree your body is almost sold now, slimming your way to other places is getting slower, you notch that you can liquefying yourself but maintaining the size is harder that way so you decide to make yourself close to the shape of the boar you eat before as you pass by trees a liquid link extends from your back to tree devouring it.


    Stopping the process as you hear a high whistling like sound from the sky, it''s getting louder and closer by the second, few moments later a metal armor wearing warrior looking guy lands on the ground 2 meters away from you landing on one knee and hand (typical superhero landing).


    Warrior : seems I missed the volcano, but I won''t miss again believe that.


    He unsheathes his giant sword from the side, the sword was a bit taller than his and he was at least 2 meters tall, rising his sword up a lightning bolt struck at the tip of it.


    Warrior : you are dead now.

 An Electrifying Match

    Thank you for all the support I defiantly not expected comments and a rating from the first chapter :D


    I''m still thinking of another title for the novel still nothing that fits came to my mind, if you have one plz let me know.


    anyway here is the second chapter.


    ____________________


    As bolt of lightning hit, it seems the sword absorbed it and started releasing small electrical charges. The warrior lowered the sword facing you with no time to react a bolt went right to you.


    Your vision started to darken, but you see the warrior is charging at high speed sword first, barley moving you push yourself to the side. The sword cut through you¡¯re the side of your mouth.


    Warrior: tougher than what I thought, but still I can¡¯t let yo¡­


    Before he finishes you liquefy yourself and start consuming the ground, going through the makeshift tunnel you are making, it took less than a second for the whole body to e underground.


    Suddenly the ground starts shaking, as metal roads followed piercing through you, and a shock came soon after the vision is dark now but it does get clearer, actually you are not underground anymore you are in a black sphere being healed by that warrior. Though the sphere is not transparent at all but you see clearly that you are in it with the normal vision around you but you can¡¯t see where you are heading


    The material this container is made from is really hard to consume, at this rate it will take you days to get through it so you stop, with the limited vision you have its clear that the trees are much less dense than before and the rocks under are very familiar¡­


    Wait this is the volcano, this is bad. With the speed that warrior is going it only took seconds to get to the top of the volcano.


    Warrior: at least I won¡¯t miss from here.


    You can hear to chuckle in his voice as he throughs you in the middle of the volcano, there is no way you can go through the thing your trapped in and surviving in the lava is something that is not possible.


    Well unless, you start moving your body at random as if mixing yourself but the speed is only getting faster and faster nothing is happening but you still continue, as the sphere hit the lava and going right through it. The walls are being destroyed really fast.


    Shaping yourself to a sphere and start forming a thin outer layer of solid. You are getting more and more transparent now but the moment the lava got through the container you are in and touched your body it started glowing bright red, you are still moving at an accelerated fashion. Tough black bits started forming on you more and more.


    With only 10 seconds passing static electrical energy is going inside your body and the speed you are missing at is very high, the black bits stopped forming and the area around you in solid rock now, as the red glow in reducing you start to relax.


    Good so as long as I use all the energy I get from the lava it can¡¯t kill me that is good to know, in about 7 minutes you feel the descending stopped and you start to go up in the volcanos lava, with your around vision you see that you reached the top and floating now.


    Consuming the top part of the stone ball surrounding you, once the hole was made you see the warrior is standing holding the sword in both hands with the tip facing down and with a beam of light surrounding him, but you see him look down to you with one hand rising from him and the beam stopped.


    Warrior: hah so I this is how you survived, I didn¡¯t miss after all. I¡¯m almost tempted to let you go and see how strong you become, but no that won¡¯t happen.


    You see the warrior doing his lightning thing with his sword, even with space to dodge I can¡¯t, well there is no space anyway. The hit will be taken but there might be a way.


    As the warrior faces the giant sword toward you, with that you start to turn the body fast similar to what you did before but this time at a much higher rate as the static electrical chares took a split second to form, surly enough a bolt of lightning hit you.


    If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it.This time you feel it more like a surge of energy more than a hit, actually this is more energy than what your max can take and no black stuff are forming, though the bolt is still inside you turning inside you.


    Well here is a risk that I¡¯m not sure is worth taking but, you stop moving at once at that moment the bolt shot out to the side hitting the volcano side, hmm so either I time it just right so the bolt goes where I want or well be laze and use a giant rod to aim with.


    Warrior: I would say that I can make a stronger hit but looks like lightning can¡¯t damage you anymore.  Sigh¡­


    Warrior: as first I was amused but now I¡¯m annoyed


    Well time to hit back, as you start turning the moment the color started to fade you jump on the lava directly and your turning speed is still raising with lightning starting to form, but stone is being created mostly likely from you taking the heat from the lava, so as soon as stone forms under you move in 5 seconds you are moving in circles in the volcano.


    But all that time the warrior was just standing in his place not moving, in 10 seconds a layer of stone has formed with no more direct contact to lava, here goes nothing. You stop moving with a huge lightning bolt coming out toward the warrior no it actually missed.


    The warrior extended his sword in its direction, it went from the sword directly to hit body. With smoke coming from the holes in his helmet and the holes in his armor. Did it work?


    Guess not as the warrior jumped in the volcano with his sword sliding on its inner walls looks like its him cutting it.


    Warrior: that was a thank you for giving me a land to come down in, though that bolt was stronger than what I expected.


    That I did not take account for, need another plan then.


    The warrior not waiting for me to take my turn dashing toward me it left solder facing me but I can¡¯t see his sword that is worrying, deciding to dodge to the left, as that happened and the warrior cot close with your surround vision you see the sword being held with his right hand on his back with the back of his right hand facing his back and the sword extended in his leg directing and moving to slice you.


    You are in the air can¡¯t change directing from here and not sure what a cut does to you, there might be a way you extend a small sphere up very fast with a very thin link. With that the main body went down, the sword cut through that link but generally you dodged the attack, as the cut happened the extended part dissipated purple smoke and became transparent. So when a part is not connected you lose it.


    As the warrior stopping from his dash and turn back, you reformed to a boar and charge at him, the warrior took a stance with the sword in his side, is you got close you jump toward him, he is moving the sword to cut you again but as you jumped to change to the liquid form extending sideways a bit in the direction of the sword swing.


    As it got close you move your body around the sword not touching it as the sword in the middle you only surrounded with air, it got through the other side not touching you.


    Hitting the chest armor of the warrior and moving down to, while that you try consuming it with no luck at all with that, but you feel small electrical sparks while in touch with it but that was no the plan anyway.


    You leave his armor and hit the ground making a big circle under him and in an instant the ground under him is consumed and you move to the sold part.


    The warrior dropped in the lava dropping fast, the armor must be heavy, as the extended he held the edge of the sold part with the tip of his hands but must not been able to support his weight as it brock down.


    Too bad I did not eat him, he would have given me a lot of power.


    Moving out of there and back to the forest in the boar form, you look back and you see a beam of light and it radius reduced till it vanished.


    Does that mean he is coming back, guess I need to be prepared for the next time.
