Exp And Other Drugs

"What's a title? does it taste good?" Sha Na asked Intalru after the two managed to drag the river monster on dry land. "I don't think you can eat them.." After replying to Sha Na I use my claws to cut the fins and whiskers off of Mr fish's dead body.

"Did you level up Sha Na?" "I did brother and I feel like I'm close to leveling up again." she replied while giving me a toothy grin before taking a bite out of our meals back scale and all.. "You know it would be easier to eat if you cut it up first right?"

Sha Na looks up from her meal and gives me an odd look. "I like to watch it disappear bite by bite." I forgot my Sis is a psychopath, I wonder if all my siblings are this way? I hope not otherwise I may turn out like them due to acclimation..

After finishing our meal I pull the spear out of its eye and push my hand in.. Soooo gross!! it's as mushy as I thought it would be, but the issue is the slimey feeling. Anyways after getting my arm shoulder deep in gray matter I finally feel something Solid maybe half the size of a baseball. After grasping hold and pulling Shplop! I remove my arm from the skull.

"Appraise"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Mana stone

Type: Water (Small)

Description: A stone naturally formed inside of monsters as they age. The type of stone formed is dictated by environment, diet, and elemental affinity of the monster. Stone size is in direct correlation with age of the monster and it's Mana density.

Possible uses: ??? (Appraisal skill level is too low to see this information)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hmm why is this one considered small as well? it's almost four times as big as the others.." While Muttering to my self I began washing all of the Mana stones that we collected from our kind patrons.

After I washed the stones I finally took a glimpse at my reflection. An ugly lizard creature is staring back at me. It's head has a couple of boney nubs sticking out from between the scales going directly down the center like a mohawk. The lizard creature also has frightening red eyes that contrast sharply against the brownish green scales. Strangely there seems to be a pattern across the scales as some are darker and lighter in different places slightly resembling war paint. Look we all know that the creature in the water is me I just can't bring myself to say it because.. I'm ugly!!! Give me back my devilish good looks!!!

"You may be the best looking from our clutch brother but you shouldn't be vain.." Sha Na says disapprovingly after stuffing herself to bursting before she laid down and promptly fell asleep.. I'm one of the handsome ones? how does my race reproduce if most of them are uglier than me? I seriously doubt brown paper bags exist in this world.

As Sha Na slept Intalru began counting all of the Mana Stones while humming an old nursery song. As the night slowly faded to morning the flowers stopped sending light to the moon and began to wither. Noticing the change Intalru made his way to the tree.

After all the petals dropped from the flowers a grin spread across his scaley lips. "Appraise"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Moonlight flower

Description: It's a flower...

Uses: ??? (appraisal skill level is too low to view this information.)

(Bonus knowledge from a past life: This plant has a chemical compound that when refined causes hallucinations.. use with caution)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hahaha they ARE morning glories!" After Intalru verified his suspicions he gathered as many seed pods as he could find and made a small satchel out of leaves and vine to place them in.

Ding! Crafting skill 'Tailoring' has reached level 1. "Thanks beautiful" As the announcement went through Intalru's mind he placed the seeds in his bag and made another pouch for the Mana Stones.

Intalru walked back over to wake up Sha Na so they could make their way back to the cave that the two hatched in. "Ssso early brother, I need more beauty sleep.." She said while rolling to face the opposite direction of the rising Suns.

"I heard the best prey can be found early in the morning but I guess that your sleep is more important.." Intalru said with a wry grin. Sha Na's eyes shot open as she sat up. "I'm pretty enough for now let's hunt!" I knew she cared about her stomach above all else.. the two set off with this thought passing through his mind.

On the way back 'home' they managed to hunt a strange frog with antlers that made chicken noises bringing Sha Na up to level 4. "So sister how did you like hunting with me? better than one egg I assume?" Intalru tries making small talk again realizing that Sha Na only initiated conversation the first time they met.

"The hunt was more successful than I thought it would be brother.. honestly I thought you may have been lame when it took so long for you to hatch I was worried I would have to feed you, but I was pleasantly surprised." Sha Na replied with a smile. Why is her tongue sharper than her teeth!!

"Sister you are too kind but in the future could you keep the negative parts of your compliments to yourself?" Intalru says while rubbing the back of his scaley head. "What was negative? I was worried you were lame but you're actually somewhat smart.. I never would have thought to make a spear to catch the fish."

She said it again! fine whatever maybe our race is just mean as a default. "Hehe thanks sis anyways do you want to level up again before we reach the cave?" .... silence Intalru turned around to see Sha Na staring at him before she opened her mouth. "Brother you ask dumb questions maybe you should watch what you say in the future.."

Ack! It's ok it's going to be ok she's just mean and lacks proper conversational skills that's all.. Seeing as leveling up was the most important thing right now Intalru remained quiet as they searched for more prey.

Not 20 minutes later Intalru had a cold feeling run down his spine all the way to the tip of his tail. "Watch out sis!" Intalru yelled while rolling out of the way. Ding! danger sense has reached level 8.. Not now my Queen!!

Crash!! Btoom!! "Verdammt, ich habe es verpasst!!" Was that German? I turn around to see a young man with long blonde hair standing in the middle of a crater where my sister and I were just standing..

Blondielocks seems pretty upset that he couldn't skewer us with the spear he stabbed into the earth. I see that the letters over his head are Blood red having a bad feeling I appraise him.

Sh*t! he's way too high leveled to f*ck with we gotta GO!! Before I could tell Sha Na to run she pounced on Blondie... well F*ck! looks like we're fighting.. "Sister he's poisoned Fight defensively and don't let him hit you!!!" Looks like she has some decent battle sense, the moment I warned her she kick flipped off of our pally to be like a Kung Fu master.

"Zu langsam!!" the moment those words left his lips Mikeal stabbed his spear into Sha Na's stomach, Time crawled to a halt.. Did he just kill my sister? The one F*cking person I actually know in this whole world is dying in front of me. This B*ST*RD must die!!!.

Ding! active skill 'Dragons wrath' has reached level 1. Shut Up B*tch I don't need any f*cking skills give me back my Sister!! "Raaaawr!!!!"

Ding! Ding! Ding bloodline skill bahumat's.... I said SHUT UP!!!! Everything went black..

"Oh my head... F*ck Sha Na!!!" "Yes brother?" I opened my eyes to see Sha Na's scaley face over mine my head resting on her l.a.p.. "Are you ok I thought you were dead!!" I jump up to make sure she's not bleeding but all I can see are a few miscolored scales where the spear had pierced her.

"I was dead for a moment but you brought me back to life and passed out.. How did you kill the smooth skin? Why do you know my name before I could tell you? and when did you get so strong!!" as Sha Na started assaulting me with questions I noticed that everything around us was either burnt to a crisp or completely destroyed..

"Did I do this?" I asked ignoring her questions. "Yes brother when I woke up the Smooth skin was torn asunder and his heart was devoured I thought you liked cutting your food up?" She was smiling when she asked about my food preferences.. apparently that was more important to her.

"Well when I watched you die something snapped inside of me.. your the only family I know and I kinda went crazy seeing you get shish kabobed on his spear.." While I was trying to remember what happened Sha Na started patting my head like a good dog...

"I'm glad you feel that way brother but we're from the same family so maybe you should save those emotions for your future mate."

I'd swear she's teasing me right now... Let me make this clear to you people I AM NOT A SISCON!!! "You can love family and still love your mate you know" the moment those words left my lips Sha Na tried to push me but I barely budged. "Ugh!! you're too strong how can I bully you as your older sister now?"

Looks like she wants to change the conversation so I'll oblige her this time. "Of course I'm stronger than you now, I killed a level 18 'Smooth skin'!... You can have what's left of him if you want?" I try really hard not to look at the pieces of the ex-paladin but he's literally everywhere..

"No thank you! I tried to nibble on a piece of it's hand before I went to check on you and I almost died!! I think it has too much Mana for my stomach to absorb." Sha Na says while shaking her head drastically.. Wait a minute... the first thought you had was about food and not your awesome brother that brought you back to life!!! where is the familial bond!, where is the feeling of devotion to your savior!! where is the.. you know what never mind I could kind of expect this from my psycho food loving sister..

"Brother what is your name? for you to have this much power it must be amazing!!" ... "Brother?" I don't know any cool names for our race so I guess it's better to tell the truth. "Ahem uh my name is Intalru!" I shouted my name to make it sound cooler but all I got was.. "Pffft hahahahahaha" okay you know what? I have a new saying to live by now, and that saying is F*ck family!!
