Immortality System: The Last Human's Transmigration

'If that hits...' panic overcame me, causing me to freeze and drop to the floor. A second later I found myself clawing at the ground with my remaining arm, trying my hardest to move out of the way before-

*Whistle*

*BOOOOOM*

The sky was a deep aqua blue given a tone of purple by the rising sun shining from the east with all its radiance and glory, overcoming the darkness and turning the sky into a fabulous artwork filled with so numerous colors, stars, and depth far beyond my imagination.

Yet, within the depth was a shadowy figure, given the dark tone due to being illuminated by blaring rays of the sun from the other side.

All I could see of the creature was but a tiny shadow in the distance, and before I had even realized it, the shadow was becoming bigger... No. It was getting closer.

Its speed was something else. Something that broke several sound barriers with each flap, making the creature only close the distance between the ground and it at an extraordinary speed.

With another flap of its wings, the creature was capable of generating enough force to completely stop its descent.

Yet, this was not all since the whiplash effect from the immediate stop had caused the creature it had been holding onto with its talons could only feel the dreaded feeling of them being torn apart and eventually launched into the ground, creating a huge dust cloud in its wake.

The flying creature held the other creature's head in the grasp of its talons for a few seconds while not breaking eye contact with me... The wide-eyed, shivering, and whimpering me could only watch in awe, fear, and most of all, excitement.

It was an excitement I had never felt before because rather than just enjoying myself, this feeling felt like an addiction corrupting every part of my brain, cell by cell, atom by atom.

Yet, this did not mean that the fear I felt at the moment had nullified, in contrast, it had become amplified causing the two emotions to clash in my mind.

I never broke eye contact with the flying creature that was seemingly using its wings to float mid-air, expanding them outwards to show the thick membrane that formed its wings alongside the bones that went through them, sticking out at the end of each wing-like sharp daggers waiting to stab something or someone...

The flying creature had an elongated head with two eyes on each side capable of moving around and looking in any direction, giving the creature something close to a 360-degree span of vision, leaving almost no blindspots other than the one behind its elongated head which would have blocked the view of anything directly behind it.

Its piercing yellow eyes looked at me with slit-like venomous pupils that seemed to analyze and cut me into a thousand pieces, or at least that was what I had felt.

The tension was only growing, finally getting to a point where once could cut through it like a hot knife through butter.

As the novels back on Earth, or should I say in the future would have put it, I was courting death.

This was not some kind of novel where I was invincible because of some kind of plot armor. Yes, I might have happened to go through time, but for what? just to suffer for days with minimal food and water? To become the meal of some hungry creature that my body would barely nourish due to my small size? To lose my arm and barely have enough time in the day to thoroughly think about anything other than surviving.

Is this the life I want to live? Is there really, in reality, any point in me having to go on like this?

All those questions passed through my mind, yet like the breeze of the scorchingly cold winds of the winter, they eventually did stop, or at least for now, they did.

My eye was still locked with the piercing eyes of the thing in front of me.

Its intense gaze sent shivers down my spine.

My thoughts now were only consistent with the one question anyone as weak as I would have at this moment.

'Will I survive?'

How would I know, after all, I was just another weak human...

The staring contest lasted for what seemed like hours until finally, it seemed to be repulsed by me, eventually flapping its wings and leaving

behind the corpse of the lizard-like creature that had ripped off my arm.

When the flying creature was finally out of sight, I looked away just to have my eyes land on the headless corpse that lay there, motionlessly...

"For god sake! I do all that just for it to say that my rewards will come later! Do I look like some kind of joke to you!?" I roared in anger

I could feel an unrelenting rage build up and boil within my very blood.

The rage was like nothing I had ever felt before, and even though I could understand where it had been coming from, I didn't understand why it was so intense.

A piercing, destructive and chaotic killing intent began to seep out of every pore in my body until I was finally enveloped in a dense red aura.

This was the second time this had happened, but an inkling inside me told me that it was going to be far from the last time.

Before I knew it, my legs had begun moving on their own and I found myself dashing towards the corpse.

When I was finally in front of it, I used everything I had and kicked the body, yet the only thing I received in the feedback of the kick was the mind-numbing pain that reverberated through my entire being, shooting through every neuron.

'God... DAMNIT!' I kicked again as if I hadn't learned from my first kick, making the pain even more intense.

This thing was simply too big, scaly, and overall just too powerful to be moved by something as simple as a kick.

I was also certain that this thing could have been compared to the size and weight of a small truck, and since it did not have wheels pushing it would have been significantly harder than a car.

After a few more punches, kicks, and even some barging, I gave up and began to walk away.

I could have used the creature for food, but its scaled were simply too tough and hard to take off while even if I was capable of taking them off by some kind of miracle, the meat itself would have been too tough for my mouth to chew.

I walked away sulking, my body still aching and my stomach as empty as a bottomless bucket.

I was truly miserable...

I was painfully pathetic...
