DIY (1)

After stumbling through the woods as the whole surrounding forest fell prey to little ants devouring them, in order to nurture me back to full health, I still can not get used to the widespread destruction after each fight I survive. But as much as I try to get used and get better at fighting, it feels like I am in shambles after nearly every fight I participate in.

My body gets stronger and stronger the more I get hurt, but this only works if I am able to escape or win the fight and once again I can not fathom exactly how strong my body is. What happens if I stumble into someone who just uses fire magic to incinerate me directly? After experiencing getting pierced by ice magic, I noticed that even though my body is able to absorb magic, it is unable to influence the law of physics surrounding them. For example, even though I was able to weaken the potency of the magic, its property could not be changed by me. Once the magic interacts with the real world and gets turned into something tangible, I am able to absorb the potential energy residing in it, but I am still vulnerable to all physical aspects.

If my hypothesis is true, that means every kind of magic can be deadly against me used in the right circumstances and if I can jump to such a conclusion in a matter of minutes, I doubt that those nutjobs are unable to do the same. I have no clue what kind of influence magic has on the laws of physic. Are they able to heat the surrounding air with their spells, if so does that interaction depend on the quality and purity of the mana, or is it limited by the amount of mana they pour in? Or are both of these factors at play here? I lack the theoretical knowledge of magic to determine, what is important in this process. And do not get me started linking this knowledge to the fact, that those powers might derive from their faith.

I will not get any satisfying answer to this matter, in the near future. That is why I have to consider ways to counteract against the potential threats that magic poses to me. My defence against magic that threatens to pierce or cut me just depends on the quality of my skin and all it takes to improve that quality is to just injure the whole body over and over again, of course, I would have to wait for my body to be rebuild in between.

Finding a method to deal with heat or cold is much trickier. I have no clue, how intense the flames are going to get nor do I have any way of knowing whether the magic is responsible for the transfer of heat or works as radiation influencing everything around it.

In order to test some fundamental laws, It was unavoidable to use me as a test subject. Catching wildlife and experimenting on them would not help me unveiling the relationship between mana and this fabricated world. The problem was that this world always returned to its status quo. Destroy a tree, it will regrow sooner or later. So creating a fire, without mana as a primer was a race against time so that your resources do not disappear before you succeed.

According to what I read about magic, It can turn into an element there is, though most devotees focus to on learning one kind of magic to the extreme. They insist on praying to an individual god and acting according to his faith, if the gods accept your devotion and virtue, your magic gets stronger. This theory seems a bit stretched in my eyes. After all, every human being is born with different potential, some can cast ice magic better than fire and so on. For that very reason, there are so many churches who develop their believers.

Magic is even able to influence space and time as well, though that particular magic is very rare. If that claim is true, then I can only deduce that the laws of physics in this world differ a lot compared to the ones on Earth. But I just can't lay a finger on how they are different. There is the same feeling of gravitational force, there is the same kind of heat or feeling of cold. I have to be very careful with my deductions here because I am stuck in a manmade world, that is a depiction of how the world was back then. Magic could have changed the world and the laws surrounding it fundamentally after all.

I have not enough information to come up with a good explanation. I need to get back to the main point. What can I do to test the limit of my body? Do I seriously have to kidnap a player capable of fire magic, to test my body? It is so annoying that everything has to revert back after a certain time frame. It would be so easy if it just could remain permanent like my rocks or web.

Wait a minute permanent? So the things that were made in or out of my body are able to exist in this world without being turned back. That means, that the rocks that are connected to me were made in my body as well. Even though that solves my current problem, it brought up many questions and concerns. I mean the rock feels like a rock, but if it was a rock than there would be no way it would stay in that shape. They could not have found it in the woods, after all, I did spend considerable time searching for rocks back then.

This is the same for my jeans, what materials were used to produce it. I have a feeling, that the approach they took might be effective but a bit creepy as well. What if my jeans are made out of human flesh, specifically my ski. If they can fix my muscles and the tissue, I do not doubt that they are able to replicate the whole system +.

To test this all I had to do was rip a piece out of my body and wait for the bugs to recreate it, then watch whether the piece of skin would continue to exist without being connected to my body. After smashing myself with the rocks a few times to get the skin bleeding I decided to put my fingers into the wound a tear a bit out of flesh out. Well, that was the plan, but getting myself to bleed took a lot more effort than previously imagined. After having already strengthened the skin by doing this stuff over and over again, the rocks were of no use any more.

Well, there was one spot, which I did not strengthen as much, in the off-chance I want to procreate but the chances of having offspring seem quite low giving my current situation.

Well in the name of science sacrifices have to be made. The sounds I omitted after a successful try, will not be talked about because every reputation I had built up by now would crumble instantly. I did not expect it to hurt to such a degree, after all the shit that has happened to me thus far. I thought I got used to it, turns out a vasectomy without anaesthesia is quite painful.

The repair began quite soon afterwards and as I kept track on how the flesh in my hand would react or rather if it would not react. As time ticked slowly and my manhood returned to its former glory, I noticed that the piece of flash on my hand was still the same. After waiting for some time, my theory was proven to be correct.

That knowledge opened a whole new world of possibilities. It gave me the possibility to conduct realistic experiments without risking my life, now it was possible to create many different things. Tools, weapons I am curious If I can use the human flesh and turn it into different materials. Could I turn it into leather?

The first thing I have to consider is how to get the most of my body after all I had to get it off of my body first before I could work with it. It is not helpful if my body gets stronger and stronger and I need to go to more and more extreme measures just to get stuff to work with. I could throw myself in battles all the time hoping to get hurt as much as possible, then tearing off my limbs and wait until I am healthy again. Though that strategy is seeking death in the first place and it is limited to the strength of my enemy, due to the reason previously mentioned.

But I am sure, there are several ways to hurt my body and if I can not break it from the outside then I am just going to hurt myself from the inside. There is always a way, sometimes you are just forced to get a little creative here and there.

But I am curious, what happens if I let my peace of meat interact with the world. So I dug a little hole and put the meat inside of it. I kept the dirt in my hand and waited for it to revert back. After waiting for a bit I decided to see what the result was after I dug on the spot I chose previously I noticed that the peace of meat was greatly compressed. In theory, it might even be possible to create stones or oil that way. Though that is a process that takes several millions of years and in its current form, it seems unlikely to produce such a result.

I have to conduct several tests, to see if there is any difference if it is solid or in a liquid state. Does it not mix in the slightest and if it mixes what are the characteristics it gets? Is it possible to recreate functioning organs? What if hypothetically I were to recreate my body piece by piece would that be possible?. If I were to cuff players with my something made out of my skin, what would this worlds system view it as? Would it get dissolved instantly or does the system not recognize it, because judging by the rocks and jeans an interference is possible? The only concluding observation I have made by now is that some sort of pressure is created if something out of my body is in a place, where a matter out of this world is supposed to be.

There are so many interesting concepts and ideas that can be accomplished now. Could I make a sword out of my spine? Could I make a sword if I just sharpen my nails and rip them out over and over again? Could I make a sword out my teeth? Could I make a sword If I were to rip out my hair over and over again and putting it together?

There is quite an easy way to fight the transfer of heat like that, if I use the principle of the onion skin, I could just wear different suits, heck even a full body suit would be possible, made out of myself. if they are thin enough, the loss of warmth is minuscule. Though many layers of "dead" skin would also prevent some damage done by heat, even though that is not the best solution, because it keeps warmth in and does not let the warmth from the outside stay there.

A possible solution to burning wounds is to use the water bound in my body, to fight the damage it does or did to the skin. Though I am not sure, whether this body even has water in it. Come to think of It I have not yet drunk water, all I did was let the bugs replenish me. It does indicate that my biological needs are only partly reflected in this world. Most of the times those needs were induced to a high level of stress.

I am intrigued, what limits my body brings with itself, so I am all ready for a DIY-session. Let me see whát the limit is.
