"I stir my consciousness clicking back into place as I sense how much my body felt wrong in so many ways, I try to move only to feel something hard press against me on all sides like a barrier all the while getting a better feel at my lack of fingers and toes.
How the hell did I get here and what happened to me? The last thing I remembered was going to my shitty job for my 996 when the last thing I saw was a....I got truck kun didn't I!?
Well there's nothing I can do about that not like I can lobo myself back to life, I should be mad or sad maybe even flicking the imaginary bird to whatever rob was out there that didn't even ask for my consent before giving truck kun the go ahead to king chariot me and sending me off to this place but I didn't if anything I felt empty?
I shifted around in the dark getting use to my body despite how foreign it feels and press against my prison when....crack ,my prison broke letting in light that was blinding so not letting up I began to open up the hole more and more until I was able to pull my body out and onto the ground, it was then that I got to feel the extent of just how different this body was.
The fuck! I would say out loud if I had the vocals for it because the funny thing is I don't have a torso matter a fact I barely have a body you see I was what you would call a head on a stick or in my case a head with a total of 12 rods that made up body with their colors being yellow that got darker the lower they went as smoke billowed from my body and if you played Minecraft you would know who these belong too.
Yeah you guessed it I'm a FUCKING BLAZE you know that one mob you can kill with snow and water, a mob that exists to die so you can go slay a dragon yeah I'm that guy, ok ok don't panic from what I see I'm very realistic so I don't have to worry about a silent 6ft pickaxe weilding maniac coming to farm me, what I need to focus on is seeing where the fuck I am and what to do from there.
I somehow got up although on shaky legs? This body connected yet separate at the same time a odd feeling as the remaining 6 parts rotated around me, I turn my head getting a good look at my surroundings, blood red sand with random black rock sprouting from the ground surrounded me turning my head a full 360 I saw as waves of red bashed the sands both staining and eroding them but the one thing that stuck out in all of this were the eggs.
All around me were eggs of all color, shapes and sizes and it seems like I wasn't the only one who hatched as the eggs were either in or finished their hatching process, welp shit I think I know where I am and it ain't good assuming it's anything like the original especially since I barely read much of the damn book, if you don't know I was talking about custom made demon king and the fanfics it would spawn.
I looked towards my black color egg knowing what needed to be done, I made my way over to the egg that looked more like a misscut rock someone chiseled with a spoon, it had a black liquid leaking out onto the ground and a new problem arise.
How am I supposed to eat this? I don't exactly have a mouth or any form of biology, I reach a rod out to touch it the moment it made contact it turned to dust and flowed into me solving my problem while also hitting me in the head with a wall of knowledge that made my body literally fall apart in a pile of rods.
I pulled myself back together after the info dump and went through the process of trying to see if I had a golden finger, anything that let me be more than a living resource.
Menu, panel, stats, status?
{Ding! System downloaded}
There we go now let's see what we have here, I pulled up my status in the open completely forgetting I was surrounded by genocidal baby demons that were beginning to kill each other but given that I wasn't organic in anyway none of them seemed interested in the floating head with hot rods for limbs".

"Ok thats alright I guess I'll go through it more once I'm in a better spot than this beach, he didn't bother seeing if the system was intelligent because if it was it would've talked to him by now, a commotion nearby took him out of his thoughts looking to his left he could see a ugly worm demon with a gaping maw of teeth headed his way, the beach was still filled with combat but there were clear winners.
He wandered why the worm wanted to take a shot at him when he realized that while he was 100% inedible his soul wasn't yet for some odd reason he wasn't afraid maybe it was his reincarnation or because he became the most emotionless thing alive either way he already knew how to rid this pest and perhaps get some extra souls while he's at it since his system was straight forward except with some things he'll need to figure out.
Now you'd expect a demon would be resistant or immune to fire and in some cases your right tho only if they have a affinity with it and even then if you went up against someone with a stronger affinity in fire magic than kiss your ass goodbye.
I waited for the worm to get close enough when I decided to act, I didn't even need to give my only offensive skill a thought when it felt as natural as breathing, my body ignited in flames and smoke as three charges shot out 2 impacted the worm head on while the third struck it side, chitin and flesh cooked as the recently born demon shrieked in pain as it inside cooked and in no time it was as good as dead, he saw it soul leave it body before it could leave he instinctively seized it with a rod surprisingly he could actually hold things, he absorbed the soul and checked his system, sure enough he had 1 soul at his disposal.
Checking his surroundings he saw some unhatched eggs and newborn demons that haven't yet killed making them a easy target, why am I thinking like this? I just took a life albeit a horrid one but I committed murder yet I feel....nothing, screw it! I got no time for morals I'll cry in a corner later but first I need more souls than I need to get the fuck out of here.
I made my way over to the nearest egg using my rods as legs a weird but effective means of mobility and energy conservation even if I was currently capped, reaching the egg I raised a rod and slammed down on the egg cracking it open to reveal a malformed looking demon with too many arms, without hesitation I raised my rod again and brought it down again and again until I saw it soul leave it body I snagged it and repeated what I did before in no time I had 8 souls total and accumulated 160 exp meaning I got 20 per demon.
He then made his way to the demons near him and was quite surprised with how easy they were to kill either because of his strange appearance and Inedibility or this batch of demons lack those that could use fire magic, in no time he racked up 5 more souls and have a total of 260 exp putting him 2/10 of the way there, looking around the fighting stopped and the demons all headed towards the area low rank demons resided in, with nothing left to do I followed and decided to use this moment to reflect.
Holy shit! What do I do now?, take a break cole you have time now, since I'm technically nonliving I don't have to worry about sustenance or air so I can channel my inner camper and hide in a far corner until I'm strong enough given my stats and how bs my level requirement is, but how much do I wanna bet random bullshit won't strike me let alone get me dragged into a battle I'm under leveled for.
No my best bet and hope is seeing how much this system offers me and how my blaze formation work, if it does what it says than I very well can survive this cesspit, with that I brace myself for what I was going to be put through and as we reach our destination I like the others ran like the wind away from our birth place and into the hell hole.
