Chapter 4: First Undead
[Sophia's POV]
Notice [ Continuous training has increased the following: DEX +2, AGI+5, STR+8]
After some intense grinding for many hours I finally received some sweet dings in my head and a mechanical voice that sounds like Siri, apparently the system has enough tact such that it will wait for me to stop for at least five seconds in my training before sounding out that notification, that or I am just a child of god so Siri... I mean the system doesn't want to annoy me.
I mean, surely hearing dings again and again while you're sprinting is just annoying, and oh, by the way, after my sweet exercise, my stats are such:

Well, I must say my luck didn't increase much but at least I am not like some cliche Isekai MC with -123456789 (This is a Hyperbole, Obviously) Luck and it will lead them to every precarious situation in their world's existence.
Then again, having Zero luck is just awful as having a negative numerical value... I hope nothing bad happens. Anyway, no need to grind any further, my feet are already dirty, unfortunately, I do not have any water source here I only got rehydrated because of that watermelon I gobbled up earlier, and now that I look at the entrance (as I assume it is), the sun is already gone and only a small thread of red-orange light is visible meaning that I am training for approximately five to six hours straight and the sun is already setting.
I looked at my supplies and just saw two apples in them, right I have to already set out tomorrow and once again train so that I can get common skills, I didn't do it here inside because of the lack of resources, only some rocks as big as my newborn of a head are available and I can thankfully lift 'em all without a problem and I don't want something as lame as [Throw] as my very first skill I want it cooler and I am so tired right now that even laziness is already shouting at me to stop training and I am rarely seen lazing around.
Thinking so, I started to use the blanket under the fruit to wipe my feet, who knows maybe my baby's skin will get infected with germs.
The blanket is white colored so it got dirtied easily, but it's not like I particularly cherish this blanket or anything so who cares, after some minutes of wiping my feet alongside my equally dirty hands, I also used the blanket as a sleeping carpet, I laid down in the blanket while using the scarf as a blanket, I looked at the root-filled ceiling of the hole I am in.
This day is pretty messed up, after millions of years of staring at nothing but literally black, I woke up in a forest and transmigrated in the body of someone abandoned just like my former self, but the only difference is that no one is stopping me from progressing, hell even a fucking god adopted me the moment I opened my eyes, though I can't still see him...
But, a necromancer huh? That's cool, I mean the concept of being a Necromancer itself is already cool but the fact that I am the first Necromancer of this world is cooler, who wouldn't want the title "The world's First", right?
That's just how that certain LA Lakers Player that when became the first bench player to record a triple-double in the whole Lakers franchise history, his resistance to becoming a sixth man disappeared like it never existed in the first place.
That's just like me, being in this place got me resisting that very fact, but when I learned that I am kind of like a pioneer of Necromancy here, I unconsciously got inclined toward the idea and now, I am raring to go outside of this place to become the very best that no one ever does.
As I was thinking of those things and imagining myself conquering the world with my legion of undead that Never Fears, Never Tires, and Never Hunger even though I don't even have a single Risen Undead on me, my eyelids slowly became heavy and with a single question in mind has fallen asleep rather quickly despite the ridiculous situation.
I wonder what my first undead will be...
And just like that, My first day as Sophia Demiurge ended without any trouble except for a few bantering with my skill.
I heard a few rustles in my side but I am too sleepy to bother about it, I even thought this thing is a whole ass dream but the gigantic rabbit bigger than me in my new body is proof that this was real... Wait... What?
What does a rabbit doing here?
Ugh... Too sleepy, I don't care, just get out you punk so that that I can sleep peacefully.
The morning sun appeared at the entrance once again and pierced through my eyes, forcing me to wake up, right, I am now a baby and I need to preserve and replenish energy more quickly than an adult, that maybe is also the reason why or how did I managed to suck all of the fruits in that basket with only two pieces remaining, I woke up slowly, noticing the trail of saliva in my soft baby right cheek, I used my impromptu blanket, the scarf to wipe the drool out of my face.
I stretch my limbs with a cute sounding "hnnn~" sound because my vocal chord is still that of a baby, and yeah, I can already speak (a little), but I don't want to because hearing my voice is somehow... Not right, I mean... I have a baby's voice right now so... you know, sigh it's hard to explain but anyway, today is the day that I will go out of this rabbit cave (?) and see for myself what this new world of mine is to offer.
Will it challenge me that I will be able to use my full brain capacity? Or will I once again become a cheat code of this world and will dominate it again from front to back like what I did in my previous world?
Well, nothing can be known for now, but we have to go and find out.
As I was thinking of something like that, I took my basket and saw two apples, yes there are two apples before and so as now, but the problem is, WHY THE HELL ARE THE TWO ALREADY HALF EATEN!?
I looked into my memory from yesterday, and all of the things I did most of it is to train and eat over and over again as well as my shenanigans between the intervals of the two are perfectly sketched in my brain and are being flipped out, but I can't see anything that indicates that I have already eaten the apples half by half and then suddenly I remembered a giant rabbit and I immediately knew it.
That fucking rabbit ate my fruits and if it's not enough it has to disrespect the food by not finishing it!
My Filipino blood disagrees with that! If you ate something you got to finish it until only the plate, the spoon, and the fork remain in front of you, that's what the elderly says.
No, no, more importantly, now I realized that the reason why this hole is so big is that someone that big is living in it and thankfully, rabbits in this world are herbivores and didn't eat me on the spot, but still, the rabbit made a single mistake that will end his life, no one takes my food and get away with it, unscratched.
But first, I need a proper plan for my revenge, I want it dead, so I have to give it a single blow in the head, I bet despite being a herbivore that rabbits have an ability that is probably linked with AGI because rabbits can hop well in my previous world, and if my conclusion is correct then this world's rabbits can do better than that, good thing they are still preys that will stick their head out like an idiot without a proper cover... At least that's what my hypothesis is saying.
And because I am confident enough that this will work, like I said I became like those genius protagonists who will always think that all things will go according to their desire, I started to tilt around and make a perfect revenge plan and about three minutes later I have finally crafted the perfect plan.
First, I found a root that is two to three feet protruding out of the soil wall, one that has a two-pronged end, and one that is preferably in the side back and a little away from the entrance, after I found some, I then found a rock, those rocks as big as my head and then lifted it, instead of being a rock it's just like a bowling ball for me because of the STR I have, or so [Guide] explained while I am carrying the rock.
After that, I used my scarf and bent the root until it made a mini catapult, the scarf then was tied to the other end of the bent root loosely so that I can easily release my mini catapult without me needing to hack my scarf, after all, that's my only garment as of now.
And as if the rabbit wants to die so early in its idiot of a life... damn I must say it's fucking gigantic, it's two feet in height while on all fours, and it's freaky because the bunny is an albino and has red-colored eyes.
Anyway, the apple I used as bait was immediately sniffed by the bunny and then immediately approached it, judging that the time is already ripe, I loosen my grip on the scarf and thus the rock flew in an arc, the rabbit seem to hear the small swishing sound of the rock and turned its head into me, the rabbit eyes widened in shock, it seems like the idiot didn't notice me and immediately stopped eating but with a loud "splat" sound, the rock smashed right on his face and the creature slumped immediately after his whole skull was crushed by the catapult's bullet.
Oh, it seems like I have successfully killed my very first kill in my two lives, suddenly another dinging sound and a Siri-like voice sounded in my head.
Notice [You have successfully killed a Giant Bunny +57 EXP]
Oh my, oh my, that's some nice EXP, but still, for a creature this weak, it sure drops lots of EXP, I wonder why...
Before I can even conclude, another Siri's voice spoke in my ears.
Notice[ Unique skill [Necromancy] can resurrect the corpse of the Giant Bunny and make it fight for your cause, will you use the ability of [Necromancy] to resurrect the creature?]
[Yes or No]
Two options appeared in front of my eyes floating and waiting for my decision, hmm... So this world is like Tensura... I mean in a way because common skills have only one function while Unique Skills have many, and one of the abilities of my unique skill [Necromancy] is to rise things I killed to die (again) for me.
[Guide], if I resurrect this bunny, will it lose its stat?
[Master, no, it will not, The God of Undead thought of the said mechanism of Necromancy as annoying and decided that the undead, as long as you have killed it and is not higher or equal to your level will not lose any stats.]
Oh, I see, but then again, I don't have food right now so I might refuse... LIKE HELL I WOULD!
Rise Undead! Saying to myself and selected yes, and a black smoke suddenly appeared in the rabbit's body, the head that was mangled was stitched by what it seems to be needles and thread and a crooked but still acceptable rabbit face once again emerged with many stitches here and there.
The bunny bowed at me slowly.
Notice[ You have successfully raised your first undead]
I looked at the notification gleefully and started jumping around.
[Please Select a name for your very first Undead subordinate]
Oh? That's rather... Interesting.
