*OOF*
“God Damn! That hurt like hell!”
The stupid black hole couldn't land me on my feet could it?
No, it just had to plant me face first in the god damn mud! I already hate this place, I its a murky swamp.
I look around and I see a huge shadow. A feeling of dread spreads over me, I look behind me and I see a huge toad, with warts the size of soccer balls.
Me and the toad just glance at one another for a good 10 seconds, it doesn't appear to be violent and I'm not risking a fight, maybe it has sentience?
“ Hello there big fella, I'm Nico King”
It tilts it's head to the side, the next thing I see it opens its mouth, which is the size of a door as it tries to take a huge bite out of me, I dodge rapidly by rolling towards the right, it takes a huge chomp out of a boulder and spits it out.
Nope!
it's too big, not even gonna bother, I'm just going to go back home and wait for the end of the world.
“Teleport Earth”
I wait for the black hole to appear again, but instead I am met with a blue screen.
ErrorSystematic teleportation is not available during combat.
“You have got to be kidding me!”
I quickly rummage through my duffle bag in search of my marine sword
“This is not fair! Who teleports someone in front of a giant monster? Seriously, what happened to the usual rabbits we slaughter as noobs to become mighty dragon slaying warriors? or the goblins we usually exterminate?”
As I complain to myself the toad turns around and looks at me and charges at me once again. This time I dodge towards the right swiftly and impale the giant toad in the center of its back, popping a huge wart.
*Sploosh*
*Blahch*
I throw up almost immediately as the pungent smelling liquid sprays all over me. The toad yells in pain and opens its mouth I dodge once again, but then something unexpected happens, it shoots its tongue out and wraps it around me, embracing me in a mucous like liquid with its tongue. He uses its to tongue to pull me into its giant mouth.
“ Oh no you don't! I'm not going out like this!”
I stab through its tongue as hard as I can with my sword, I leave it implanted in the ground I then run up behind the toad, it is trying to bite me, but with its tongue being secured in place with my sword, it is slowly ripping its tongue apart.
“ You messed with the wrong person you stupid toad”
I start kicking the toad in the back. Pummeling it with my fists as well. It gives a couple of loud cries and It starts pulling back and I see its tongue on the verge of snapping, and a pool of blood forming below its mouth.
“HAHAHA! Stupid ass toad! You're going to snap your own tongue off! Don't worry I'll help you!”
I jump on the tip of its mouth and cause it to close shut from the impact, its tongue snaps and I Bolt towards my sword and hold it in my right hand and face the toad.
*RAAWGHL*
It releases an ear defending roar, but due to all the blood in its mouth it’s gargling. I see a Muddy glow emanate from the toad, it's eyes also radiate a pale red light.
The Giant swamp Toad has been enraged. Due to its aura your stats decrease by 10%
Shit, give me a break, it's tongueless, can it just die already!?
I run a boulder near a tree, and jump on it to reach the tree.
“At least this will give me some time”
I take a granola bar out of my backpack and eat it. The toad is still charging towards me and shows no signs of stopping. Hey, you can't be serious! Is it thinking of ramming me down with the tree!? Shit! I look around for someplace to jump onto but can't find anything that is reasonably far to jump onto, well I doubt the toad can ram down this tree but just to be safe I'll be ready.
I hold my sword ready to strike, heck, at this point I'm thinking of prince of persiaing my way down this tree my tearing through it on the way down to lessen the fall.
The toad Rams its huge head in the tree, the impact caused the tree to go crooked and caused me to fall down, I cover my face and start rolling in an attempt to disperse my energy, and it mostly worked, my left arm however was dislocated at the shoulder. I look back at the toad an its head has been caved in from ramming into the tree. Thank god.
Wait… I haven't leveled up, is it not dead yet ? I look at the toad with foam and blood coming out of its mouth, I poke it with my sword and it twitches.
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
“Well, let's level up”
I stab my sword through its head.
You leveled up six times, you gain 30 unallocated characteristic points and 12 skill points. Skill points can be used to purchase skills, abilities, spells, and bloodlines in the shop. The shop is locked until level 15.
That sounds cool, bloodlines? I can be a dragon! Let's just forget about it, it must be ridiculously expensive.

Hey guys! I know I said I would most likely not be updating until September but I had time today, I really felt like saving up this chapter and stockpiling a bunch up until September but I don't know, I just felt anxious to upload the chapter today. Well, that's about all I wanted to say, Please tell me how the story I going and whether you enjoy it, I would also like for you to tell me better ways to improve my writing, Thanks and see you in September, unless I get anxious again xD
P.S I feel as though my chapters are a bit short, should I add a bit more or is it fine the way it is? Some of the tittle boxes go white for some reason, I'll try to resolve this soon too.
