Tim wasn’t having any fun. He could barely recall how he even ended up in these tunnels, but he knew one thing for sure, the tunnels weren’t so friendly towards spiders. He either had to keep fighting, or keep getting attacked by random creatures, which was a real hassle to work around. This was especially bothersome, once he considered that he barely won any rewards in return for all of the fights he put up! He was just running around, and surviving, which was less than ideal. “Magical tunnels should’ve been more fun,” He pouted, “Well, this place isn’t fucking magical, I guess, but it does have magical creatures, and ghosts. Too bad that they’re all attacking me, I’d much rather use them. They could help me find my way out of here, at least, if not show me the way to a soul cave or whatever that thing is called. Oh well, I'll have to shoot at shit for as long as I can.”These tunnels were chaotic, but he had to keep moving. Tim was getting hungry, and the fear of starvation that he

Tim and Skendus eventually walked into a place that seemed a lot like a cave, except it didn't seem like the type of cave that he was looking for, as nothing about it was paranormal. They walked into a wide opening, where life was really abundant, there were a bunch of things to eat here! Tim was really hungry, so he didn’t waste a single second, he chased after a couple of insects immediately!It wasn't easy for one to be an explorative spider, as it demanded a lot of energy. He had over-exerted himself, quite frequently, so he was more than happy to run into these insects now, as they could help bring a bit of his energy back! He moved quickly!“Huhuhahaha!” He celebrated, after he bested a couple of ladybugs. Back on earth, it was frowned upon to kill ladybugs, but the settings over here were different. He wasn't on earth anymore, and he was a spider too, so he couldn’t really be picky; He had to eat them in order to survive!Anyway, Tim then second guessed his kills, at least for

“Oh…” Tim sighed, “You weren’t kidding about the ‘readjustment’, man. I’m feeling a lot of new things!”Skendus the rat remained in the cave with him. He didn’t talk as much now, but one could notice the excitement that he was feeling, as it was very apparent in his gleaming, wide pupils! He wanted to see what Timothy was capable of now.Tim did exactly that, he tried to summon one of his new, soul-based powers. Much like most of the powers that he possessed, it only took a thought to summon these new ones. Through a single thought, he summoned the unpredictable!It was unpredictable, because he was suddenly airborne. For a second, Tim thought that he had detached his soul from his own body, but that was not the case. He was transparent now, much like most ghosts were, yes, but he didn’t actually leave his body behind this time around, but took his body with him instead! This twist of things was phenomenal due to multiple reasons.Rather than detaching from his physical body, he had,

While Tim and Skendus swam through a wide area of shallow water, the both of them had one thing in common, they got bored really quickly! The sea was wide, massive even, so it was very common for a fish to swim for hundreds of meters, miles even, without actually reaching an important location. It would take a while for them to escape these uncomfortable, shallow waters!Since they were pretty bored, Tim decided to browse the rest of the upgrades that the system had to offer. He was offered a list of the available upgrades, and got really excited only moments later, because he realized that he could buy at least two of them! He did a lot of math to figure that out, the math made his head hurt, inevitably, and this resulting irritation that he felt helped him decide which upgrade to buy first. Tim decided to buy an intelligence upgrade. It was a hardy and useful upgrade, promising thirty-five points of brain power!The system said so, she specified. [This upgrade costs 700 system poin

Bone multiplier, electro nerve splitter, and soul grabber were some intense names, first of all, but they didn’t just sound terrifying, they were terrifying! These three magical powers had a necromantic undertone to them, and all things necromancy were frowned upon, even within this world of brute slaughter, and invasive magic, it was shunned. Necromancy tipped the bucket for most, apparently, as plenty of people and or creatures drew the line there regarding how brutal magic should be. Their reasons were purely ethical!Timothy, however, wasn't as ethical. Even with an upgraded brain to his advantage, things like ethics, sympathy, and empathy eluded him. He was far smarter than the average fish now, which shouldn’t make him evasive of such decent principles, and yet he was! Perhaps he was so unethical because he was smarter? It was paradoxical.Tim was more experienced in worldly matters, as he had explored the seas, the lands, and the sky too, and this was a part of what made him cr
