Adventurers

'What is happening...'

[It appears you are inside of the variant wolf.]

'How am I able to stay alive while inside of this wolf.' Hazard opened his eyes and looked around, he was inside of the wolf's stomach.

"Wow this is disgusting."

[Agreed, also I recommend you look at your body, It seems there is a large scar across your upper body in the shape of the variant wolf's teeth... and your clothes...]

"What about my clothes?" Hazard question before looking down. "Oh." His clothes were, gone... he was as naked as the day he created his character. The scar that went across his chest started above the middle of his torso and went down towards his hip on his other side. "Well I can't really do anything about the clothes."

[Applying mosaic formation to... specific part of body.]

"Haha, well how do I get out of here?"

[Impossible at the moment, unless you wish to go through the digestive system. You are able to survive but it will result in acidic burns on over 30% of your body.]

"So yeah, that's not happening, can't I climb out of its mouth or something?"

[No, not unless you wish to be eaten again.]

The area was beginning to shake around. slowly getting worse and shaking around from side to side violently. Hazard was bouncing off the walls, literally. "What the fuck is going on?"

[It appears that the variant wolf is in a fight with something.]

The shaking was starting to make Hazard nauseous, he was known to have a "difficult" stomach in his previous life. (Author: Stomach aches are not fun.)

Suddenly the shaking stopped and there was a flash of light towards the front of the wolf. Blood began flowing into the the stomach and after a few seconds Hazard was standing in a puddle of blood. he could hear noise, voices coming from outside the wolf.

Almost immediately the wolf's head fell off.

"Wow nice kill, Sandra," a woman said.

"Yeah the sword went straight through didn't it," another woman called back, "but still the ice magic Fell shot nearly killed it."

"Haha to bad I didn't get to do much," a final woman chuckled.

After listening for a few seconds Hazard decided to peak out of the wolf corpse, only letting his head and neck show.

"Um, I suppose I should thank you." Hazard said shyly.

"What the..." said one.

"Holy shit." said another.

"How is he alive." the final girl spoke.

"Haha, can we talk about this after you guys give me some clothes, the wolf's stomach acid melted my clothes off." Hazard laughed. "Also introductions are in order. I'm Jay Hazard, and please call me Hazard."

"Fell"

"Sandra"

"Gem and please put this on..."

Gem held out a black robe with golden trim, while looking away and bushing. Hazard grabbed the robe and walking back further into the wolf to put it on. When Hazard walked back out of the wolf he was wearing the robe partially. His legs were covered as well and his groin, but he left his chest uncovered and tied the sleeves of the around his waist letting the top of the robe hang down behind him.

"Thanks." Hazard said while scratching the back of his neck. "I don't know how long I've been in there."

"How did you survive in there without food." Fell questioned.

'Do I even need to eat?'

[Technically no but you would still feel a small amount of fatigue and the pain of hunger, with enough practice you could get over the pain of starvation.]

Hazard turned his head, trying to get out of answering the question. "That doesn't really matter right now, so... where are we?"

"Well, this is weird but as of right now we are in... Death Forest." Sandra answered.

"Geez, what a lovely name how did I not die... oh wait, nevermind." Hazard turned to look at the magnificently large wolf then continued. "So what are you girls doing out here then, I mean besides saving my ass."

"We took a quest to come kill the Variant wolf that leads a pack in this forest." Gem said.

"And we succeeded." Fell added.

"Quest..." Hazard mumbled.

'Sam what are these quests they are talking about?'

[Glad you remembered I am here...]

'Is someone jealous?'

[... Quests are missions that adventurers are hired to go on. They receive payment for completion of these quests. Adventurers are prominent in this world, high pay at a high risk. I recommend you become one after you go to a guild.]

"Hey, hey... you listening?" Gem was having her hand in front of his face trying to get his attention. "Yeah, sorry what's up?" He took a step back and asked.

"I said we are heading out to the nearest town if you want to join us. we aren't opposed to you traveling to the town with us."

"Yeah, that'd be great. Oh wait I'ma need a second." Hazard said while running to the nearest tree and bending over, he then proceeded to vomit.

"You alright, your not looking to good." Fell asked from behind Hazard. "You're looking a little pale..."

*BLAARG* "Yeah I'm fine, just fine... your guys' fight with the wolf shook me up a bit." *BLAARG* "Ohh god, that was not fun..." He had been holding onto the vomit since he walked out of the wolf, and he finally let it out.

"Yeah, here let me help you with that." Fell said and then stepped back and closed her eyes. In a few seconds a green pattern appeared in the air right in front of her hand. She then spoke a single word and particles started to shower onto Hazard from the circle.

{Lesser Healing} 'What is that... Is that magic!?' Hazard screamed internally. He had always wanted magic to be real so this was like fulfilling a childhood dream.

[Yes, this spell {Lesser Healing} comes from skill [Beginner Holy Magic] which this girl appears to possess, I recommend using skill [Appraisal] when you find time on both you and these three girls.]

'Great, next thing you're going to tell me is that there are dragons in this world as well.' He thought sarcastically.

[Would you prefer I don't mention it?]

'Wait, Wait, Wait, so there ARE dragons in this world?'

[Yes, there are many different forms of dragons within the confines of the world.]

'You phrased that like there are dragons outside of this world, why?'

[The only known creatures that have been capable of offworld travel have been Elder Dragons with the skill [Godly Space Magic] and are extremely dangerous, the only way you are capable of killing one at the moment would be if it chose to off itself, they are also capable of speech.]

'That is awfully rude.'

[Mhmm...]

The nausea was beginning to settle, it seems the magic was very effective even at the lowest level.

"Wow, magic really is incredible!" Hazard remarked.

"First time you've seen it?" Fell asked.

"Well yeah, let's just say that where I come from nobody can use magic. I'd love to try and learn sometime, but who knows if I'll ever get the chance."

"Well, after we get to the town why don't you register as an Adventurer and I can teach you something."

Hazard smiled and said, "It's a date."

"Good, we can talk later I've got to help out my sisters."

"Oh they're your sisters that's cool."

" Mhmm, we are triplets. Ok, now you rest up before we head out. living inside the stomach of a wolf much have been tiring."

"Thanks for everything." He said while smiling at her, and she turns around and whispered something.

"Cute."

Of course Hazard didn't hear this.

[Hazard, now that you are alone I recommend you use [Appraisal] to see your stats.

'Ok, why not.'

'Wow, what the hell happened to me...'

[It appears to be a side effect of surviving in the wolf's stomach for so long. When the girls saved you it seems you were given experience, and due to your multipliers your stats went up greatly.]

'What about the new skill and title?'

[The new skill is the result of the new title, [Belly of the Beast] grants passive skill Acid Resistance. The clear conditions are "survive inside of the stomach of an animal for more then one day." also it seems that Basic Immortality can be hidden from sensors and [Appraisal] skill among other things.]

'Good, I don't want to end up as some pawn used for politics, thanks.'

[Your welcome... blush.]

"The fuck? Did you seriously just say blush!?"

"Did you need something?" Sandra called over to Hazard from the carriage.

"Nothing..."

"Get ready, we leave in five minutes." Sandra shouted and Hazard nodded in her direction.

'I thought you were a system, why are you developing a personality?'

[Samantha is capable of learning from the memories and experiences of the player, Twinkle.]

'Know what I'm not even going to ask...'

"Let's move out, we can make it before sundown if we move our asses, get on board Hazard." Sandra yelled, she doesn't seem very friendly...

Hazard Hops into the carriage and noticed they left the wolf.

"We aren't bringing the wolf carcass along?"

"No, the quest only requires us to bring back one of it's claws." Gem replied while lifting a beige bag with blood stains at the bottom.

"Lovely," He said while turning away, blood was a sight he wasn't used to seeing, but if he wants to live in this world... he had to get used to it. "Seems like a waste though..."

Gem raised her hands toward the wolf. "Don't worry I'm lighting it up, {Fireball.}"

Another floating circle appeared in front of her hands only it was red. Next, a spark appeared in front of said circle and grew bigger, until it was the size of her head. The ball of flames then shot out, moving at massive speeds toward the wolf carcass. It proceeded to catch on fire, its red-hot warmth reaching even to the carriage.

The word "incredible" could be heard coming out of Hazard's mouth, as the carriage started moving he stared at the flames while the girls chatted in the front.

I hope to get a consistent upload schedule in the future but for now I will write like a maniac and do what I enjoy.

Remember to leave a review to let me know how I'm doing and also leave comments to help me decide the future of this novel.

Remember to give Powerstones as they give Hazard a power boost... not really I just have an addiction. ;-)
