[ Volume I: "THE EVOLUTION SYSTEM." ]

[ DAY 1. ]

[ Tutorial. ]

[ No. 1: "EXP is gained via eating the body parts of what you've killed. The more you eat, the more you'll gain." ]

[ EXP 7+ ]

[ EXP 9+ ]

That explains a lot, really. I'm currently eating those two Horned Bunnies I've killed, stab wounds across both of their necks as I read the Systems manuals while eating.

[ EXP 6+ ]

Apparently this System thing works like an RPG, or something, I mean, the more I eat the more EXP I get. The more EXP I get, probably the more powerful I get, I haven't checked the other functions of this System yet.

So the more I eat, the more EXP I get. I wonder when I'll get to level-up, something cool would probably happen. Probably, I mean, Sung Jin-Woo had to face death hundreads of times before he became badass.

[ EXP 7+ ]

Rimuru Tempest had to absorb, and form connections here and there to build his kingdom. Hiraku, the protagonist of Farming Life in Another World had to farm first; even though he was overpowered already.

And Rou, an Guy Reincarnated as an Goblin had to eat Things, and Monsters to acquire new abilities... Wait, shit, that's too familiar to me, but I ain't acquiring shit.

This motherfucking lowlife novel is rigged, I want my money back, no, I want my life back. Even though I haven't known yet how I died, but I was definitely sure I was human at some point.

[ EXP 10+ ]

Man, fuck this, this meat is just way too good. It's such a shame that I'm nearly full already, I think. I mean, I don't have a stomach capacity indicator floating beside me, so, I'm just guessing shit.

[ EXP 8+ ]

But no way in hell I'm leaving a trace of this meat, fur, and blood behind. I'm slurping, and munching on this things until I'm full. And I'm definitely gonna need the Horns for later use, a makeshift Trident would do, probably.

Don't think, just eat. Don't eat slow, eat fast.

[ EXP 11+ ]

Burrrped, or something Goblin equivalent of that. Anyways, the food was tasty, and I'm full, definitely more than full. And such a shame that you couldn't taste this, I mean, that was delicious.

Delicious at the point that I even ate fur indiscriminately, and left nothing except their Horns and blood trail behind. I ate the bones too, they were crunchy for me, I liked it.

Anyways the pond here is probably 6ft deep, twice, or probably thrice my height. Hell, it could probably even be more than 6ft deep, I don't know. I'm too afraid to jump at it, I couldn't swim.

And with my already short stature I'll probably die, drown; dead before my great awakening, and before I'll meet great bitchsis from across the land.

Yeah, that didn't sounded good, so I'm not doing that. And besides, something inside me, my instincts probably, are telling me not to jump. This species probably hate water, I do wonder why.

Is it because they're not used to water? Or is my senses telling me I'll drown? I don't know, but I'll find out even though I don't know how to swim. Oh, is it because I don't know how to swim? Probably, definitely.

But looking at clearly it's definitely not that deep, I mean, it's an pond; not the gate to neverlands or something along those lines. And besides I'm dirty as hell.

So backing away a little, with my legs feeling a little bit jittery I ran and jump in the pond; I'll probably hit my head if this pond is low depth, but I realized that part too late.

With me already being in mid-air about to splash with water, so I just closed my eyes and look away a little, awaiting my toes to hit the ground underneath the water.

Splash! Bam, spasm, what does water splashing sounds like? I don't know, but thankfully this water isn't that deep, and thankfully it's not that high either. But high enough to graze my feet with the stone below a little.

It hurted a little because I cannoned balled myself without thinking about the outcome. But, yeah, the water is fucking cold, and thankfully there's no dangerous fish-monster sleeping here.

Oh, yeah, I didn't thought of that, shit. Anyways I'm dirty as all hell, and I'm gonna take a bath if you don't mind. Get the fuck out of here.

[ EXP 3+ ]

[ Tutorial. ]

[ No. 2: "EXP is also gained by either eating fruits, vegetables, worms and other such products." ]

I've been walking back to my cave, pass his leaves, pass this bushes, pass this trees, and pass everything I've saw earlier; I'm not dried, still wet from the shower I've just got. But I'll let the sun dry those for me.

Because well, towels aren't invented yet; if they are invented, then I don't have one. So, yeah, I'm walking back home Horns in hand, and an Purple colored Apple in the other as I continue to bite on it.

Apparently this isn't poisonous, it just tastes like shit, like lead. But it isn't poisonous, and I'm more of using this thing to increase my EXP, because, I mean, that has to be useful in the future.

On the other note my body isn't tired, no matter how many miles I walked, weird. And I'm cleaner than I ever been thanks to that nice cold bath I just took, 10 stars definitely would jump in again.

[ EXP 5+ ]

I'll need to mark places here, I don't know how long I'll be staying here, so better safe than sorry. But I'll do that tomorrow, the Sun is about to set, and I'm hearing Crickets. Or something close to that already.

And I hate it. God must have hated this World to create Crickets, the louder variant. I really need to get back home and get some sleep, I don't wanna find out what kinds of Monsters exist here in the night.

And besides, I need to find out more about my System. Damn, am I now an official Isekai Protagonist because I have an System? Definitely. But first let's get to safety.
