Immortality System: The Last Human's Transmigration

Holding up the remaining body of the wasp, I quickly pushed down on it and pushed out a long and pointy stinger. I did not even have to touch the stinger to see that it was extremely sharp and could pierce through almost anything and everything with a single stab.

"Goddamn." I exclaimed with a beaming smile.

I was jubilant about how my mini-plan had to been going so far and it was for good reason.

Through that kill, not only had I gotten a weapon that would make other kills a lot easier and efficient, but I also gained something else through killing the wasp, something for later.

"I really don't want to touch the fleshy part of the stinger, but at the same time I don't want wield around a weapon I can barely use due to my grip." I contemplated aloud while looking around to see or find something useful for a situation like this.

"If only I had rope..." My eyes wavered and finally landed on a plot of land filled with plant fibers and other straw-like materials.

For a second, it seemed like my brain might have short-circuited since I had found myself frozen in place with my eyes half squinted and my back laying on a tree, allowing me to relax and simply look at the same place for a few minutes.

I wasn't wasting time if there was nothing specific to look forward to any time in the future, right?

Another lightbulb seemed to shine and hover over my head as it finally clicked.

"The string cheese method!" I shouted a little too loudly causing me to quickly cover my mouth, yet the excitement never left my eyes.

The string cheese method was a method where one can obtain lots of thin fibers, an example being the plant fibers I was looking at a few seconds ago. After obtaining them, you roll them and wrap them until you get something that resembles a rope.

I did not hesitate to follow the steps as I had remembered them.

I quickly separated the plants and fibers, and immediately got to making a rope. After completing the task on my second try, I quickly ran around for 30 minutes and found a rock and a fairly short branch which I spent another 45 minutes trying to form into the shape of a spear's handle.

After getting something relatively close to what I wanted, I quickly shoved the stick into the fleshy part of the sting before wrapping both of them with the rope I had just made.

I grew even more elated after seeing the notification, but I quickly closed my eyes and shook my head after realizing a blaring issue with my current spear.

"I'm going to have to re-tie it every time I used it since it would probably become loose, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem, right?" I asked myself with an inquisitive expression.

"Yeah, it should be fine." I replied to my own question before chuckling a little and beginning to walk away from the body of the wasp before anything else comes.

However, right before I was about to leave, I heard a faint rustling coming from a couple of dozen meters away. I knew that the red energy hadn't been activated which caused me to be subtly surprised by how far I could hear things as faint as a rustle.

My eyes immediately darted towards the direction of the sound, while my hand had tightly clenched around the handle of my makeshift spear.

I lowered my center of gravity and did not move my eyes away from the direction the sound had come from. I knew that the thing must not have been too dangerous since I didn't feel any dread, yet there was a chance that it might have been as strong as me if not a little bit stronger.

'Maybe my dread tingle is adapting to the threats around me? It might see things that are at the same level of strength as me, as being a non-threat, while only alerting me if my life is actually in danger... This might be a problem tho-' I couldn't finish my thought since another rustle, one which was much closer than the other one, snapped me out of my daze.

"I'll just run I guess." I spoke out loud as if I was announcing my departure before sprinting the other way without looking back.

This did not stop me from hearing the rustles move immediately after I sprang into action, while at the same time sending a shiver down my spine due to how fast they were closing the distance between us

"There should be at least two..." I mumbled before taking a sharp right turn, running up a tree and beginning to jump from branch to branch.

*Bzzzz*

*Bzzzz*

*Bzzzz*

"Oh for god sake. Give me a break." I cried as I once again jumped from one branch to the other.

The moment I landed on another branch, I felt a little bit of dread come from 5 different directions, 2 from below and 3 from the same level or above me, ones that I could only guess were the wasps that had appeared.

I instantly ducked down and dodged a stinger coming towards my face before turning around and thrusting my spear in another direction.

*Pitu*

The needle stabbed right through something, yet on further inspection, I realized that it was not a wasp that had come after me.

Yes, the one that had come after my head has been a wasp, but the second entity had been a dragonfly, one that looked identical to the ones that had attacked me a week and a half back when I had come into the world for the first time.

"Were they always so slow?" I asked under my breath, weirded out by the fact that the same creatures that haunted me on the first day were so weak compared to other entities that I had fought against.

"How the hell did they even catch up to me before." I asked with a frown before quickly spinning my spear and smashing down on the dragonfly with the butt of it.

The spear once again twirled and deflected an incoming attack from the same wasp that had attacked me the first time before stabbing it in the head and ending its life.

*Swoosh*

Something shot right past me, yet it did not take me very long to realize what it had been.

My eyes squinted towards the direction it had come from, allowing me to see a mildly feathery bird flying high and raining down razor-sharp feathers like the ones that had just slashed my cheek and forced blood to be drawn out of me.
