《Re: Turtle》 Prologue + Chapter 1 Prologue + Day 1 I don''t remember much from that day it''s been so long since i actually thought about it but since i don''t have much time left i may as well start from the beginning. This whole journey has been a crazy experience i never thought a place so wonderful could exist but iv''e had my fun me friends and wife''s have passed and this world is coming to an end. It all started on a pretty normal Saturday evening i was sitting at home on my computer doing the usual playing some games with my friends while i waited for an email from work i was suppose to receive I remember hearing a loud bang and that was about it i think i was shot but i can''t really say i had my headphones on with the music blasting funny huh my mom was always telling me i had to turn the volume down but i never listen''d never even heard the person come in. After that it all went dark i don''t know how long i had been there just sitting in the dark but it was a long i can tell you that by the end of it i could barley remember anything it was just kind of blank like i was daydreaming the whole time but after a while i was flooded with colors and sounds i had never heard and then that''s when i met him the one who rules all of creation. As strange as it sounds I cant really remember what he or more like it looks like but when he spoke it was as clear as day " Yo hi there my dearly departed it seems like you''ve been floating around there for a while that''s not really suppose to happen and i apologize so ill make it up to you we don''t usually do this but well keep it a secret" all i could think about was that this guy was absolutely nuts but then it a bunch of screens came up in my face " These here are your identification screen you''ll need it for the place your going it''s a fairly new world i just made it myself about 10 minutes ago so you''ll have a real long time to get comfy while things develop around you but go ahead and chose from the races there since your gonna be the first resident i threw in some real risque races" I scanned the page in front of me and i saw 9 different races in front of me starting from the top the list when as such 1. God 2. Demon Lord 3. Holy Seraph 4. Xenomorph 5. Dragon King 6. Enslaver 7. Time Lord 8. Immortal Hero 9. Turtle I was absolutely baffled these races were beyond broken what the hell is a Enslaver anyways but what caught my eye the most was Turtle why the hell was that on the list with these super OP races i had no idea but the life of a turtle sounds kinda fun it would be nice and relaxing and id have plenty of time to just take it easy so i looked whatever it was straight in it''s face ( i think?) and said " I choose Turtle" he looked at me for a second before laughing like a mad man " AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WHAT THE HELL HAHAHAHA REALLY? HAHAHAHA whew sorry its just been so long since someone has chosen Turtle i don''t even know what to think ok Turtle it is the turtle can evolve and you''ll find some pretty interesting paths with the turtle but i guess that''s it from me off you go oh and ill give you some nice perks just because you''ll be fun to watch i''m gonna throw in universal language and i''m going to make it comfortable in your new body it''ll feel natural don''t want you dying from not being able to move you''ll be the only one on the planet for about 200 years so have some fun build a lair or something i dunno welp off you go" after that it was dark again. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1 I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water for miles i was on a small patch of land with a bunch of leafs. There was nothing but water for as far as i could see which isn''t saying much i was super tiny i was about as tall as a water bottle and as long as my old keyboard. I don''t know much about turtle sizes but i think i''m pretty average first off that thing said i was gonna be alone here for 200 years so i may as well take this time to explore and power up maybe? Ah there was that character screen right lets see '' Character Screen'' i thought in my head and a window popped up in front of me. Race: Turtle Lvl: 1 Health:593 Mana: 25000 Str: 10 Agi: 5 Int: 125 Wis: 500 This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.Luk: 999999999999 Evolution Requirement Level 100 more achievements unlocked the greater the Evolution Skills: Swim, Universal Language, Comprehension, Ok so first of what the hell is with my mana well at least i have swim it seems i have to level for these Evolution''s he was talking about ok so level 100 sounds rough but i have 100 years so ill take my time first off iv''e been feeling hungry since i got here and these leafs look delicious. I started to chew into the first leaf next to me and all i can say is mmmmmm meat was good but i don''t know if its because im a turtle but these things are delicious its like eating a gourmet dinner with every bite just wow. While i was thinking of how i was gonna stuff myself with all these leafs a window popped up Ding! Leafs of the One True God Consumed! Following Effects will be acquired 2000% xp for the next 200 years. Xp can now be obtained through walking, swimming, flying, and or Sleeping. Stamina is now endless for next 200 years. Achievements will be auto unlocked once evolution levels are hit. You have also been given the same name as the world congratulations Viroew. Well that answered most of my problems well then time to finish these leafs and start on my journey these next 200 years are gonna go by pretty slow but i might as well enjoy them not everyday you get to sight see in a newly formed planet. As i finished up the last of the leafs I was pumped full of energy guess that''s the endless stamina sheesh maybe if i had some of these back when i was still human i could''ve kept a girlfriend but anyways i started to walk into the water and proceeded to swim forward i don''t know where i''m but not like anyone can tell me so forward i went i saw a few volcanoes underwater as i kept going forward but that''s about it i don''t know how long its been i must be super small. I think its been about 4 months since i started swimming a pretty good workout if i do say so myself iv''e gained quite a few levels i''m currently sitting at level 96 a few more to go till my first evolution pretty good i think i mean it did take 4 months of swimming and i do have a 2000% xp buff. Ok who am i kidding THE XP SUCKS but i''m not gonna complain with that thought i saw it a Huge landmass in front of me Yippers we found our first continent I kept swimming until i hit it. I feel like Christopher Columbus right now what am i gonna call this place hmm i always did like that place so were gonna name it Antartiroupe not the best name huh ok guess ill just forget about the names when some human life forms ill just stick with there name i don''t have the best naming sense anyways. Onward to discover the mysteries of Antartiroupe. I walked for a while i think its been about 30 minutes haven''t seen anything place is a wasteland sheesh thought there''d be dunno more than this after about an hour more of walking i found a nice cozy spot in a newly formed cave i just swam for 4 months straight i think i deserve a nap so that''s just what ill do i snuggled up inside of my shell and closed my eyes just as i started to doze off i heard a Ding! Evolution Requirements met please choose from the following 1. King Sea Turtle (Super Rare) 2. Wandering Turtle (Super Rare) 3. World Turtle (WTF Rare) Um ok i dunno i just wanna go to bed but World Turtle sounds like the best lets go with that. World Turtle Is final evolution takes time to grow but possibilities endless please choose carefully the responsibility of being the power of the world is not for all Accept Decline I hit accept and nodded off its been a pretty productive time since iv''e been here lets see what tomorrow holds Chapter 2 Chapter 2 I slowly opened my eyes as i did i heard a familiar Ding soon following the sound a window appeared in front of me User Log: User has slept for 195 years 8 months 12 minutes and 37 seconds following changes have occurred Height increased 66 meters (20 stories) Width increased 99 meters (30 stories) Stats have been adjusted accordingly User has gained skills Worlds energy - User Gains Stamina based on the number of life on the planet the healthier the world the higher the stamina. Mother Natures Blessing - The world moves at with your will the land and waters flourish with your Presence Mother Nature has given you her power to wield as your own take care of it for this is something she rarely gives out. Transformation - Must be tiring being so big all the time huh? this is a gift from me to you don''t say i never cared O.< lets you change into a humanoid form though not as fun as your big o''l turtle self i''m sure you''ll need it sometime soon hehe. The Spirit of the World - As the first being and World Turtle to exist in this world you are tasked with the same mission all World turtle''s before you had you are tasked to watch this world protect it care for it nurture it for when you die so will this world. And with that the information stopped flowing that was an awful lot to take in 195 years and 8 months huh that means i only have 4 years left Until life start''s on this planet not to bad i guess 4 years and endless stamina time to explore! Being a world turtle seems to be a pretty heavy job if i die the world die''s whelp not like i plan on dying anytime soon so well just forget about it for now time to go. As i stood up I had completely forgotten that i had grown 1 step and all i heard was BOOOOOOOOM! wowzers seems like the cave i was in grew around me i was Wondering why it was so dark sheesh ill make sure i pay attention where i step i don''t wanna deform the planet as i thought that i took a step forward but this time something different happen''d as i my foot hit the ground it felt as if it was cushioning my steps hmm maybe i won''t have to worry about my steps after all i guess Mother Nature''s taking care of that. I continued onward while thinking about what i wanted to do hmm so many things i wanna go to somewhere nice and Sunny get some excersice after all that sleep. My istincts were screaming at me to go south guess that''s also mother nature all i could do was offer a silent prayer and continue on. I walked for about 25 minutes before i came across what i could only call Herbivore Heaven THERE WHERE SO MANY DIFFERENT KINDS OF LEAFS there were yellow leafs poison leafs red leafs i was drooling right now as soon as i saw the leafs i booked it and started devouring everything it was DELICIOUS I guess not eating for 195 years will do that to you. These leafs tasted like a fine cooked New York Strip they were yummy especially the poison ones i dunno why but they gave me a real tingly feeling. About 20 minutes into my buffet i realized i had completely wiped this area of any vegetation....... i mean you can''t blame me can you? no really come on can''t a turtle gorge himself in leafs after 195 years sheesh. After my little *Cough* Meal i continued southward to my destination. Keeping in mind that i have endless stamina still i was making top speed i''m pretty sure it would take me a day to make a trip around earth i don''t know about this place haven''t figured out how big it actually is. As i was coming upon my destination i wanted to face palm my senses were taking me to a freaking Volcano what the hell Mother Nature not what i had in mind at ALL but you know since im here theres something iv''e always wanted to try i dipped my head into the volcano Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.and took a big gulp. What common you can''t blame me don''t tell me you''ve never wondered what lava taste like well your welcome i''m here to tell you it''s like drinking black coffee with a shot of caffeine just don''t do it my mouth is super bitter right now bleh not the best idea i ever had but you know happens. This my friends is how i spent the next 4 years just wandering around from place to place doing what i want. Found some pretty neat places even a few more volcanos I even named another continent i''m proud to present Chimerica easy enough to remember sadly Chimerica wasn''t that big only probably the the size of Australia back on earth but with that time passing i grew another 2 stories in width and length i am now huge if i do say so myself. The past 4 years exploring where great but now came the start of it all with a little twinkle in the sky and comets falling towards me The Gods came into existence once they had crash landed in front of me i saw 9 of them they all had on some weird toga like clothing im not gonna say anything cause well it would be kind of awkward to point out. " Hello world turtle i am Xenios we 9 were sent here by the creator we will create life in this world and help it flourish" blah blah blah then he went on some long rant and introduced everyone i''ll be honest i didn''t pay 2 much attention he was just to boring he said some stuff about suggesting i hibernate for a while as life wont be here for a long long time i kinda agreed with him on that i wouldn''t mind a nap after 4 years of non stop exploring might as well right? After he finished his explination 8 of them blinked out of existence and 1 of the gods stayed behind. Ah her silk white hair that flowed to her thighs her deep blue eyes she had a nice slim body no fat but no real lets just say Umf to her physique but she looked beautiful it took a while of me just staring but finally i heard " Well u-um well this might be rude of me to ask i am only a low god the rest are high gods i know i''m asking for a lot here but would it be possible even just a little bit for you to hibernate in my domain i am the goddess of snow my children will have it harder than the rest as they will have to adapt to the harsh conditions but your presence would warm them and allow plants and animals to breed and thrive in the environment i can''t offer much but i can offer myself if that is enough payment please consider it" I was kinda blown away by what she was saying first of all because i had no idea my presence would warm people but also because she just looked so darn cute being all nervous. I looked her straight in the eyes and said " Ok i''ll do it on the condition that you marry me" I swear i saw her face go bright red she looked like a tomato for a while there until she finnally responded with " Tha-Thank you so much ill marry you of course i would never deny you i already have a place set up for you i kinda pre planned sorry hehe it will be really comfy! we can have our Wedding after you wake up in front of all my children!" as she said that i felt the space around me warp and i was on a nice cozy lake IN THE MIDDLE OF A SNOWSTORM WTF this woman well it is pretty comfy i wont lie and i can already feel my mind dozing off ugh i hate to admit it but this place is pretty nice. I started to doze off the last thing i heard and saw was a sweet goddess kissing my snout and whispering in my ear " My name is Sakura " and with that i slept. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for all the advice last chapter ill try to use more punctuation to make it a bit smoother to read and if your wondering why all the time skips well ( Did you really wanna read 200 years worth of a Giant Turtle finding a place to use the bathroom?????

Man I would have loved to sleep for some more time but i guess it''s that time I wonder how much time has passed this time. As soon as i thought that a familiar Ding! sounded in my head. User Report: User has slept for 3,492 years! Stats have been adjusted accordingly New title Acquired! The Sleeping Giant: You have the longest sleeping record for any other being on this planet! to top that off i''m pretty sure your bigger than mountains! your a true giant and you can nap like a baby!

Sakura''s Husband: For being the Husband of the goddess of snow and earning her affection you are now a stud! Effect: Allows user to command power of snow! Well then that was a lot to take in i''m still not used to all the benefits sleep has. As I opened my eyes i saw nothing but darkness...... what the hell uhhh i''m pretty sure i fell asleep in a lake. As i stood up i felt a little resistance above me but finally it gave in ah fresh air it''s been so long. Looking around I saw what I was inside of..... I wanted to facepalm falling asleep in the middle of a lake a turtle thinks to himself nothing can go wrong right. Wrong o how wrong I was sitting on top of me that whole time was a FREAKING MOUNTAIN WHAT THE HELL. Whew i need to calm down i really wasn''t expecting that one bit sheesh at least a warning next time would be nice. Well then time to contact Sakura but i''m not actually too sure how to do that so lets go with the old fashioned way i took a deep breath and yelled " SAKURA WHERE ARE YOU ITS TIME FOR DINNER " as soon as I finished yelling i regretted it I had forgotten I got bigger so with that yell as you could expect the freaking trees and plants around me started to all blow away sheesh i need to learn how to use that Transformation skill. Welp i can''t do anything about that now soon after my yell i saw a familiar face blink into existence " Ah sweety your awake it''s been a while " Sakura said with a sweet smile on her face. I could only chuckle and say " Yah it has been a while wanna fill me in on whats happen''d? " She looked at me for a minute before saying " Sure but one thing first your name you never told me what it was i told you mine! " My name huh what was the name i was given again oh yah i remember " Viroew that''s my name but just call me Vi " I said with a smile. The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.She looked at me for a sec before saying " Vi huh I like it " as she said that she came in and gave my snout a big o''l kiss. I''m still not used to that i''ll be honest here i only ever had 1 girlfriend before and that was back in high school my face is bright red right now I stared at her for a bit before finally she spoke " Ok well sweety not much has happen''d i mean it hasn''t even been 10,000 years so nothing much has changed really other than the land has started to become more detailed and changing according to what god''s domain it is like here for example this is my domain so the land has started to become harsh from the cold but thanks to you sweety the soil is nice and fine and can support all kinds of plants " She said that last part with a big smile on her face. All i could do was sigh " Ugh i wanna go back to sleep well not much else to do so i guess ill practice on that Transformation ability so i can move around and not cause craters everywhere i guess " Sakura looked at me a bit strangely before saying " Hubby Transformation magic doesn''t exist other than Dragons no one else can shapeshift but whatever i have to go help this others with pouring mana into the world tree so i have to go now bye bye sweety " As she said that Sakura blinked out of existence ugh this is gonna be a long day. Welp i think i was worried for nothing the Creator wasn''t kidding he really did give me a gift i was sitting around thinking of how i was gonna activate the Transformation skill until i just said " Transformation " out loud and surely enough Ding! was heard. User Transformation Window: Please pick from following 3 forms Male - Child Male - Teen Male - Adult Warning: Form will be permanent cannot change may revert back to original form only. Form will age 1000x slower than Human. Hmm 1000x slower well taking that into account i only really have 1 choice i don''t wanna be an old man by the time i actually see life and seeing as how much i sleep i think Child is the best choice as soon as i thought that the window dissapeared followed by a blinding light. As soon as the light faded i felt different like really strange everything was a lot bigger than me now as well oh and another thing I WAS SOAKING WET. Sheesh next time remind me not to Transform in the middle of a Lake Bleh as i paddled my self to shore I brushed myself off and did some jumping jacks to get a feel for my body I was now tiny compared to my old self I have no idea what I look like right now next time ill ask Sakura for a mirror probably when i wake up next time seems like she had some pretty important business to attend to. My limbs started to feel more comfortable and as soon as they did i started running i mean i wasn''t going very fast but I had tons of energy i wanted to let off after sleeping for so long as i was running I started thinking about what i wanted to do in the mean time while I waited for life to start hmm i think ill try learning magic i mean i have plenty of time even if i suck at it i''m sure I could get decent. While i was lost in thought i suddenly felt nothing underneath me and as i looked down uh oh i should really pay attention " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA " was all that would come out of my mouth as i plummeted 100 feet as landed on my bum all i could feel was pain Sheesh that really hurt I need to pay attention to where i''m going. As i looked around in the place i had landed I saw a nice cozy crystal bed hmm i think i''m gonna nap here might as well i mean looks nice and comfy. I walked up to the bed and layed down ah this really feels nice i started to doze off before i remembered I was naked and with that thought I fell asleep.
