The Fight
Crap! I thought to myself the creatures here are ruthless and now I have one coming after me.
What do I do! I'm a coward and now an actual monster is heading my way with intent to kill!
Ok, ok think it's still some yards away think.
I have this branch, I grab the branch and then scroll through the crafting options.
Wooden dagger: +1 attack a short wooden dagger made from a fallen tree branch durability 3.
Shit! 3! What the hell am I supposed to do with that! something is better than nothing I thought.
There's gotta be something else I can prepare. I open my status menu:

Shit, I thought, everything is useless. What the hell was a God engine again? I didn't have time to even figure it out because as I was closing the menus the goblin had leaped into the air towards me swinging his dagger down hard!
I clumsily dove to the side. Hitting my head hard on a big rock protruding from the ground.
HP: 14/20
Well if this goblin doesn't kill me I certainly will do it to myself I thought as I rolled away and quickly and unsteadily got to me feet.
Kek kek kek hahaha! laughter!? fucking laughter this little ugly shit green goblin is laughing at me! In a rage!
I rushed fowards dagger at the ready when suddenly I remember how the other goblin did the same and was side stepped and utterly destroyed by this little laughing prick.
I stop in place and with the heel of my foot and turned my body hard in the opposite direction haha something I learned from watching my daughter practise for so many years! pirouette!
As I done this the goblin anticipating expertly that I was going to keep coming sidestepped and thrust hard at the area that would of been my lower left shoulder blade.
Too hard, he stumbled, and fell flat on his little shit eating face! Now it was my turn to laugh.
Which I did, hahaha! what an idiot! I exclaimed, did you really think that would work on me?!
That seemed to piss him off properly, he hurried to his feet, jumped back a few steps and wiped dirt out of his face and eyes.
Then he smiled, an ugly smile with yellowish brown jagged teeth, a smile that only a mother would love I thought.
This vile monster must be up to something.
I thought hard to my gaming days, why did he make such a distance.
Is he scared?
Is he about to run away.
Oh God please run away!
No, but none of that happened, what did happen was cloud cover the light that shone previously.
Now there was but tiny gleaming rays of dim crystalline blue light, just bright enough to see my hand and dagger within it a few feet in front of my face.
Just then a sharp pain exploded up my right side causing me to stumble left!
I felt slick warm liquid ooze down my side, blood! I knew it was blood
HP:7/20
STATUS: Bleeding
Oh God!
It hurts, why did I have to get reincarnated. I mean I get it bad luck I mean just look at that shit stat.
I press my hand to my side as to try and stop some of the bleeding. Luckily the torn leaves from the shirt clung readily to the blood on my wound as to help make some sort of sucking bandage.
STATUS: Normal
Oh great there must have been some sort of hidden effect with this leaf suit actually that's not too bad.
Suddenly, I feel the wind shift. I catch a glint of yellow to my left. His eyes! I thought I can tell where he is by his eyes.
I quickly shuffled to the right, I heard a woosh! The sound of wind whipping as the goblin missed his targeted area.
Again I see those disgusting yellow eyes moving speedily toward my front. I go to step away but instead fall to my knees and
wince as the pain from the previous strike rips through my body!
The goblin doesn't hesitate and jams his dagger in my left arm just below my shoulder.
HP: 2/20
Fuck! Was that one a critical? The goblin expecting me to retaliate then pulls his dagger from my arm and jumps back several feet.
That's it, I'm dead, I'm about to die again! After the worst luck ever. Both my current and previous life flash before my eyes.
Seeing sweet memories of my wife and daughter, memories of being electrocuted and knocked out, memories of work, memories of playing video games and using cheat engines.
Wait... Good engine? Is that what that is how does it go again? God Engine on?
Suddenly! everything slows to a crawl. The goblin, deciding to finish me freezes mid stride. I'm enveloped in darkness, The slowly fades to a translucent charcoal color.
Like watching an old black and white movie but just little less white. A menu appears.
A drop down menu with my name on the top left.
All my stats appeared

I select yes, suddenly I'm thrust back to reality
the goblin's coming at me full speed when I realize. Holy shit! I'm completely healed a quick check of my stats reveal my HP is indeed back at 20.
The goblin is closing in and I say with a Smirk on my face God Engine On!
