The World Serpent

The Orange Sun ascended to the Heavens, signifying the End of the Savage Night and the Start of a New Day. The Charcoal-Black and Rose Bloody World slowly disappeared with the Azure Blue Sky revealing itself. The Fluffy Thick Clouds passed through the Blue Sky with a Gentle Breeze from the Wind. The Dangers of the Savage Night had already Ended, and The Rose Blood Moon disappeared with the Night.

With the Sun ascending from the Horizon. It was time for the Creatures to continue with their Normal Scary Lives. The War that engulfed the whole Forest ended as the Sun rose from the Horizon. Every creature group that participated in the Savage War went back to their territory. But some of their members were missing, and some even lost their limbs. The Result of the Battle was devastating.

Birds flew through the sky freely at dawn. Most of them were in Echelon Formation. Some of them were headed to distant lands away from the Forest. While some of them also went to look around for a place to call home.

The Dawn has started with the Rising Sun. In a Thick Oak Tree with uprooted Roots. A Small Burrow was hiding below its uprooted Roots. Hiding in this Small Burrow was a Reptilian Creature with No Legs. It was a Cold-blooded Creature hiding from the War above the surface. The Creature was a Small White Snake 30cm in length and 0.7 in diameter. The Snake was quite small, but it was understandable as the snake was fairly young.

The Small White Snake was in its sleeping position, signifying that the snake was sleeping. It seems that the Snake was sleeping peacefully. Noticing the War above it but not having the strength to intervene. The Comfort of the Small Burrow was strangely good. The Cold Night had already ended. The Small Snake manages to survive its First Day and First Night in this Strange World. The Snake was a Fortunate One.

Persia's body began moving slowly. She was waking up from her peacefully slumber as it was time to continue her adventure in the New World. It was the first time she slept in comfort in this New World without being forced to. It was a Good and Comfortable Feeling for Persia to wake up Full of Energy. Her Sleeping Position slowly then change as she woke up.

'That was a Good Slumber.' Persia thought to herself without thinking the Irony of her Words. She began stretching her body in instinct as she wanted to wake up in comfort. She began looking around the Small Burrow after she stretched her body. She found herself encased in darkness. It was time for Persia to get out of her Small Burrow and begin the second part of her Adventure.

'I guess it's time for me to leave.' Persia sighed as she didn't want to leave the Small Burrow. It was one of the places where she could feel safe, but it was just an illusion created by her. She will never be safe unless she's strong enough that no one would bother. With this fact in mind, It was better for Persia to spend most of her time getting stronger and bigger to increase her chances of survival.

Persia then turned her head and moved her body. She began slithering towards the entrance of her Small Burrow. The Soil in the Entrance was already soft as Persia passed there. It was easy for Persia to go back to the Entrance and break the Soft Soil to escape. It will take time as she was a few inches below the surface.

'I can wiggle my way out. No need to use my Burrowing.' Persia thought to herself. Inferior Burrowing cost a lot of Stamina. There was even a possibility that the Burrowing made her sleepy. So using such a skill for no reason would be attempted suicide. It was dangerous to use the Skill other than building a Small Burrow.

Persia began wiggling her Small White Snake Body. As time passes by, Persia finally got out of the Small Burrow. Persia got out of her Small Burrow. The Sunlight engulfs her body which gave her comfort, but it also gave her eyes suffering. She quickly turned her head away from the sun as she recently woke up from her slumber.

'Wow...' Persia thought to herself while looking at the aftermath of the Savage War above her. A Lot of Trees were uprooted from the ground. Some boulders were even thrown around, which was strange. Fortunately, Persia found one of the Thickest Tree. If she chose one of those trees that got uprooted, She would probably die getting caught in the crossfire between the Savage War.

'The Destruction is Incredible. There must be Giant Creatures in this Forest.' Persia thought to herself. With trees uprooted all around her. She assumed that there were a lot of Giant Creatures in the Forest. The Whole Forest got more dangerous as Persia continues with her adventure. She didn't know what kind of Giant Creatures were in the Forest, but it was better for Persia to ignore it until she gets enough speed to escape.

'Hmm... The whole place seems Odd? Why is there no Blood?' Persia questioned herself while looking at the destruction in front of her. She expected the whole place to be littered with bodies. But all she found was collateral damages everywhere which was the forest itself. Bodies were nowhere to be found, which was strange. Was she wrong at expecting a war above her? Persia was sure that multiple creatures were battling above her.

'Let's ignore it for now. I have no strength to escape, defend, or kill something strong.' Persia decided to ignore it for now. She would get to the bottom of this but before that. She would rather get herself strong than investigating around with no power. Persia began looking around in every direction to see her next destination.

Looking at the Rising Sun from the Horizon. Persia began heading westward like her original plan. Even though Persia was heading west, The Destination would be different than the first one. Persia then slithered towards the west, and her journey continued. While slithering in the forest heading to the west, Persia noticed many things.

'It seems that vibrations are appearing everywhere. Some are strong while some are weak? The Forest is now teeming with creatures. I don't know if I should be happy or not.' Parsia shook her head. The Whole Forest was now teeming with creatures, and it made hunting easy for her. But the Predators could more likely meet her.

'Now that I think about it. My Seismic Tracking has gotten stronger. Did it Evolved?' Persia was curious. She felt her Seismic Tracking stronger and Clearer. It seems that Seismic Tracking somehow evolved since it was a passive skill. The Proficiency must have increased during last night. The Loud vibrations above ground during the night must have also affected the Proficiency Increased.

Persia continued slithering in the Forest. While slithering in the Forest, She heard every vibration near her and some even far away, but she couldn't detect it. Persia understood that, unlike her Resistance Skill. The Other Skills must have changed in the Evolution. She needed to create her understanding of Seismic Tracking.

'Focused and use the Seismic Tracking.' Persia thought to herself. She stopped slithering and focus her whole sense of Seismic Tracking. The Vibrations slowly echoed deep within her mind. She then stops focusing and finally understood how Seismic Tracking works. She may be wrong, but at least it will help her.

'My Seismic Tracking is divided into two parts. Clear Vibration Detection and Slight Vibration Detection.' Persia thought to herself. The two parts of the Seismic Tracking were the only things Persia understood about the skill. Anyway, the Two parts were easy to understand.

The Clear Vibration Detection was only 10 meters in radius with Persia in the Center. She could clearly sense a creature if it steps in the 10-meter mark near her. She could hear clear vibrations that could help her analyze the Size, Weight, And Ferocity of the Creature. The Clear Vibration was Close Range, but the Info given was clear.

The Slight Vibration Detection was only 100 meters in radius with Persia in the Center. After the 10-meter mark of the Clear Vibration Detection. What comes after that is the Slight Vibration Detection. It couldn't clearly sense a creature, but it could give info from long distances. This means it couldn't differentiate the Size, Weight, and Ferocity but could only report Weak or Strong Vibrations.

Persia stopped thinking about the Seismic Tracking and began slithering her body. The Whole Area was clear, and she found a weak vibration near her. Persia was heading towards her prey that was on top of the Tree. It seems that Prey lives in this Tree. Persia was curious about what Creature was living on this Tree.

'Anyway, Let's climb the Tree.' Persia thought as she continued moving her body. She began vertically moving alongside the Tree. While climbing towards her Prey, A Notification echoed deep within her. Persia gained another skill for the First time on her Second Day. She was curious about what Skill she got, so she began reading the notification.

[You have gained a Skill, Inferior Wallcrawling.]

[Skill Description: The User is given the ability to fasten onto and climb vertical and horizontal surfaces without falling. The Inferior Wallcrawling does not defy gravity but adheres to surfaces unaided using various ways. But the Skill is far from Imperfect as its name is pared with Inferior.]

[Skill Status: Weak.]

'My Nature Ability got turned into a Snake... As expected.' Persia shook her head and continued climbing the Tree. She slithered upwards and was heading towards one of the branches. She was slow and careful as the Prey wasn't slow like the worms. It was also her first time climbing a tree vertically, so it will take time for Persia to adapt.

As she continued to slither upwards towards one of the branches. Persia saw the one simple creature that attracted her. It was time to kill the creature and eat it. The Creature was a Reptile like her. It was a Lizard. It was a bit bigger than her, but she could still eat it. But before Persia could continue slithering towards the Lizard. She began to use her Protocol.

Persia activated her Infrared Vision, and Her Tongue began to flick many times. She looked around the Tree to sense if something was strange. Persia also analyzed the scents of her surroundings and concluded they were alone. Persia sighed in relief when she got the info on her head.

'This is good. Nothing will attack me out of nowhere.' Persia thought to herself. She didn't want anyone ambushing her while also stealing herself. She was taught a lesson by meeting a Bird. Persia continued slithering towards the Small Lizard while hissing. The Lizard immediately noticed Persia heading towards it. The Lizard then froze and fell from the Tree. It Died.

'Wait, What? How? Is it dead?' Persia was confused at what recently happened. The Lizard she wanted to hunt just froze and fell from the tree. Such actions were unexpected as Persia expected the Lizard to have a great escape, but it all ended with the Lizard falling. Persia just shook her head and began turning her head, facing downwards.

'Since the Lizard is dead, I guess I could-' Before Persia continue with her words. The Small Lizard began moving its body and crawled away from Persia. The Lizard made a Great Escape. Seeing the Lizard escaping, Persia was shocked. A Notification echoed deep within her mind after witnessing it.

[You have increased your Proficiency with Inferior Shock Disturbance Resistance.]

[Inferior Shock Disturbance Resistance(1/10)-> Inferior Shock Disturbance Resistance(6/10)]

'Did I just got tricked?' Persia thought while staring at the escaping lizard. That was a great way to escape. Most predators wouldn't care they were tricked and would continue chasing the Lizard. But Persia was different. She valued her intelligence against other creatures.

'I overestimated myself... But I need to regain my honor.' Persia's snake face then turned serious. She would now give her all strength against everything, no matter how weak. It was the lesson taught to her by nature. As a Predator, she needed to regain her honor for such disrespect.

'Hehehe, I got your scent, Little one.' Persia had a strange laugh within her mind. It was a laugh of a maniac focused on killing the one that disrespected it. The Small Lizard's scent was already recognized and with the range of Seismic Tracking. She could track the Lizard and eat it until it disappears from this world.

Persia was acting like a Predator aroused by its escaping prey.
