Cursed by Randomness

Ch.81 [ Ugly Tree Root ]

///

Appearing on a branch of Yggdrasil, William was slowly and gently treading on top of the massive branches. The area was so... fucked, even when he was trying to use plethora of different sensory capabilities.

"Did someone ever tell you, that you are fucking annoying?" William said looking at the great tree, receiving no answer. 'I'm forced to rely only on my normal vision.' He slowly walked forward, but suddenly the bark that was in his sight at front changed and as he looked around, he could tell he was a bit higher.

After few minutes of having his place replaced into another by the tree, he just sat down and closed his eyes as if to rest for a moment. 'What can I do for fuck's sake? This place is constantly intertwining the space around in such manner that I can't even walk without getting bitch slapped by a branch! And to top it off none of my powers work!' He grumbled under his nose and looked at Sys.

Sitting calmly, he started sensing around in himself. As he let his energies to spread a bit around, and noticed something about Chaos.

Demonic and Goddess powers worked as a form of a shell, the less in amount of the two is. The more Chaos can he bring out, but it also shown a con. A clear instability in the said three powers. Gently spreading Chaos around him in same manner as in the technique, he could see how the two others were used as form of a foundation to let it slip out of his body, so he quickly took everything back.

"One long a day, or up to three short one's is my limit right now." He muttered to himself and stood up once again. Gently flaring his aura it became one with wind as he this time chose to do something reckless. "I'll live anyway." Smiling he walked to the edge of branch he was on which didn't throw him into another yet, quickly jumping off the branch he started falling.

Everything would be normally fine, except a specific fact. As he was falling he had to create small mana explosions at his sides as he was changing the direction in mid-fall to not hit any other branches, but he also had to keep his head steady and calm as he was constantly assaulted by form of a disorientation as he was constantly entering and exiting different spaces with different conditions, time and space itself.

*Thud*

William fell even higher than before, as he was now laid face-front into bark of a branch, right by the main body of the great Yggdrasil. "This way you'll never go down." He heard a male voice as he turned his face up and found a human sized squirrel which was quite... big.

Spitting out at the tree, he picked himself up and stood up. "Thanks for telling me." He said a bit sarcastically, but chose against continuing as he started thinking about the possibilities. Something which could help him trave-...

"Wait..." He muttered and turned to the squirrel "Ratatoskr?" hearing the question the squirrel only scratched its ear "Yeah. Saw any other handsome guy traversing Yggdrasil so easily?" retorting to William, he had a cocky squirrel grin.

Choosing not to commit any atrocities against the mythological squirrel. "Can you help me go down?" He chose to suck up his, whatever pride he had and asked the Squirrel for help. "What do I have from it?"

"A God's favor?" William answered as the squirrel giggled "Half-God at most. I saw way toooooo many like you, like half of one-eyed fucker's children." Hearing the retort of the squirrel, he could choose violence and take the squirrel for a Shadow. But with how easy he can escape him, William opted to back off from that idea.
