Dust billows forth upon impact, covering me and what is left of ‘Mr sparkles’ from the outside world. Quickly searching the corpse I find a space ring that I use to store the corpse and my space ring. Still, under the cover of the dust cloud, I make a hollow replica of ‘Mr sparkle’s head and fill it with 20 monster crystals.

Attaching a string of spider silk to the base of the skull, I walk out of the dust cloud. Heading over to the bird-headed man and the telekinetic dude I throw the head up before catching it few times as if taking a leisurely walk in the park. Once I am about 50 m away I throw the head at the telekinetic dude. The head travels a good distance before stopping 2 m away, floating in mid-air, facing the telekinetic dude.

“Hey, I got you a present!” I yell in a joyful tone.

Telekinetic dude looks briefly at the head before freezing and staring at the floating head. “What have you done?!” Yells a shrill and definitely feminine sounding voice. I feel intense waves of loss and anger radiating from her(?).

“Oh shit, was he your lover? I feel a little bad now, sorry. And here I thought I was giving you a nice gift, but it's the thought that counts right? But don't worry I was only going to feed his corpse to my pet bird and then fuck his skull.”

“I will fucking kill you, you piece of shit! You will regret the day you were born and wish you were dead when I am done with you!”

“They are completely unoriginal threats...”

While me and telekinetic dudette were having our lovely talk I was giving the bird-headed man a deep sense of fear so he would back away to a safe distance.

Power bursts forth from the telekinetic dudette causing her black cape to barbarically lash around her.

[She is just going to stand there?]

"I mean this is just from the top of my head but you could have said I will tear apart your atoms as I masturbate to your screams. Never heard that one before."

the ground shatters around her as she incoherently screams.

The bird-headed man was now running away to a safe distance.

"Well, this is a rage power up scream if I have ever seen one."

The head floats towards her so she can hold it in her hands as the air starts to spin around her at high speeds, producing an ear bursting screech.

[Is she actually going to do something or does she expect me to let her power up?... Still going...Bored...boredom is FUCKING SHIT.]

"Welp, nice knowing you telekinetic dudette."

I take control of the monster crystals.

“Tick, tick,...

“Wha…”

...boom"

The explosion devastated the surrounding area creating a crater 5 m deep with a radius of 15 m. Telekinetic dudette lied on the ground barely alive until I send a crossbow bolt imbued with aura lighting into her heart.

[ She would have probably survived if not for being injured by the bird-headed man and me distracting her.]

(In case you have forgotten the beast cores and monster crystals explode when Jacob tries to control them.)

[Ok now on to stage two.]

Just as I had hoped the explosion caused the fighters to look in my direction and while I don't like being in the spotlight it was necessary for the plan.

I sent out a pulse of aura which does not last or cause any physical effect outside of my body but it has the desired effect of producing a large amount of bloodlust and a feeling of carnage which pressured everyone on the battlefield and the close part of the camp. I then used my empathy to influence everyone apart from bird heads and Selena's emotions.

I made everyone feel intense loneliness, depression and a shit ton of fear while I removed all positive emotions. This had larger effects on some than others due to their strength of will or how powerful they were, but most fell to the ground crying as they curled up into a ball and pissed themselves (Sounds like my typical Saturday night).

I smile as I tap the back of my head.

One of the people my empathy had less of an effect on was Selena’s opponent who looked to be winning moments ago. While he was not crying in a puddle of his piss and shit he still froze in fear, and like everyone still standing who I did not recognize Shade dive-bombed them. driving her beak into the base of their spine, paralyzing them.

With the strongest of the opposing forces dead and me recognizing some of the Grey beaks who rode out to fight, everything was dealt with without an issue.

“So I heard something about a feast? Oh and Mr bird head I suggest you round up everyone you do not recognize as part of your tribe so they can be detained, and Selena you should probably call your father.”

With that Shade landed on her perch on my shoulder and I walked back to the camp.

POV MC After healing

After the incident, I slept for a whole day and night as my body and mind recovered. And when I woke up I was given the title ‘Willbreaker’ by the people of Grey beak which they now refuse to call me anything else but their given title.

The male guards were originally furious with me for having Amy killed but eventually came around to the notion that she was an evil manipulative bitch.

Selena called her father and we found out why everything was happening. The person Selena was fighting with stone constructs was her illegitimate brother who wanted to inherit the noble title for himself so he planned Selena's death while planting Sophie as the culprit [Which could have worked considering it was the concussion I first came to. Plus it would have been suspicious If he was the only child left to inherit the noble title.] with the original plan in ruins, he came himself with his guard and some mercenaries. Now Selena and Sophie's father will meet us at the Arch city while the Grey beaks will escort us there where the merchants and I will get our rewards before we part ways.

The fight between Kristoff and Jane was announced on the third day. To ensure Jane's victory I Injected Kristoff with hallucinogenic poison when we shook hands before the match I also made him very overconfident while making Jane calm and collected.

Although It looked like I didn't need to bother as Jane kicked his ass with her power over plants [Explained how she got past the luos flowers so well.] After the fight, I gave Kristoff a virus to give him a quick but hopefully painful death. It would agitate his nerve endings while damaging the hemoglobin (Hemoglobin is the protein molecule in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs.)

Since her victory against the carrier of my disease Jane appears to be happy yet stressed out. She keeps coming into my borrowed tent to try and talk. Luckily I have the excuse of needing to heal to avoid the conversation because I am currently considering a race change.

[I am used to fighting with extra limbs and tentacles from my time in the forest but so far all I have found in the book the merchants gave me the cliche races from my past memories.]

I skim through a few pages with a look of disinterest on my face until I find something interesting.

On the last couple of pages of the book where a list of races that were low in population and/or have little knowledge about them. They only had a simple diagram with very little information about them.

A couple of the mysterious species had multiple limbs which was what I was looking for, but most of these were too different from my current appearance or, from the little information I had and intelligent reasoning, were not suitable to this environment. For example, the zorbict (My naming sense is great.) looks like a crocodile mixed with a human. But it had a more cylindrical body with three arms, with the additional being where its back would have been, and a head that can move in a 360-degree motion. Zorbicts live in swamps which have large hollow trees which their three arms help them internally climb.

But the species which caught my attention was the Xeno. A worrier species focused on speed and finely tuned strength. The diagram showed a figure which looked like a typical elf with four long arachnid-like appendages. It was difficult to tell but it looked like the eyes had X shaped pupils.

[This looks perfect. The little amount of information provided doesn't give me much but I can expand on it when I find a proper information source. But the little it did provide shows that t would be a great match for me. the extra limbs allow for more extreme movement and attack Opportunities which I have trained for, and their physique is similar to what I have now.

Changing into a Xeno now would raise questions but by the time I get to the city, it would be too late.

I will slowly change my appearance and hope people don't notice the changes too much to raise suspicion. I won't be changing many aspects of my appearance anyway.]

I look at my lean, scared coved body.]

[As for the arachnid legs, I think I will just let them walk in while covered in bandages with my new legs on display and then hide them under clothes. this will hopefully avoid any suspicion in the future.]

"Well, now I guess it's time for a makeover."
