A leveler in Equestria

I woke up in the morning and got up and saw Twilight not there so she must’ve gotten up already so I stood up and saw that my mana is at 0 so I went down the stairs and heard Twilight talking.

“So what type of creature do you thing he is Spike?.” I heard Twilight say.

“I don’t know Twilight he seems like a bald minotaur with weird hind legs to me.” I heard Spike say and I don’t know why but I was offended and shocked.

“So there are minotaurs in here.” I said as I walked in the kitchen and saw Spike looking at me like he was caught with the cookie jar.

“Uhhh…. no offence.” Spike said with a sheepish smile.

“Don’t worry about it Spike.” I said.

“Care to join us?.” Twilight said.

“Look I’m already intruding and I’m not hungry anyway not now at least so I’m going to the everfree in was nice getting to know ya Twi.” I said and turned around and began walking towards the door.

“Oh so you did find your camp when you went out yesterday.” Twilight said.

“Actually no I did something else.”

“Oh what did you do.”

“eh nothing just took a walk I wasn’t sleepy.” I said,

“Ok then come again Mr. Mike” Twilight said.

“Just mike is fine.” I said. and went to the door and got outside.

I was thinking about how to get back when it hit me how really hungry I was. “Hmmm.? does mana makes your metabolism faster or something.? I’ve never been this hungry before.”

“No time for this I need to find a way to get home.”

hmm let’s think this with logic I’m completely lost and I don’t know how to get back….. hmmm…..

“GOT IT.” I yelled then remembered where I was and saw everyone in the market looking at me with strange looks and I think I saw one pass out.

“sorry don’t mind me.” I said but they just kept staring until they began walking again.

so it’s either Rainbow dash or Applejack they know where Zecora lives and Zecora knows where the castle or somewhere near the castle so I need to find either of those two.

so I walked to a random mare that was wearing clothes.

“Hey excuse me miss.” I said and she turned to me and I immediately felt disgust coming from her after moments of looking at me.

“Do you know where a mare named Applejack or one named Rainbow dash lives?.” I asked.

“I’ve never seen anypony in my life that has no dignity and self respect like you.” She said with venom in her voice.

“Hey what’s up your ass?.” I said and she gasped.

“I won’t let that pass you dirty ape talk to me with respect I’m a mare.” she said getting louder.

“Hey fuck you you’re the one being a bitch and hell I would rather die than talk to a lowly being such as yourself with respect.” I said.

“WHAT’S GOIN’ ON IN HERE” I heard a familiar voice yell.

I turned around and saw Applejack walking towards us.

“THIS LOWLY MALE INSULTED ME AND WON’T TALK TO ME WITH RESPECT.” The strange mare yelled.

“yep she is crazy.” I thought to myself.

“Hey I just wanted to ask you something and you just went into bitchy mode on me so go fuck yourself.”

“NOW CALM DOWN BOTH OF Y’ALL.” Applejack yelled.

“Y’all need to apologize to each other and move on.” Applejack said.

“You know what fuck this I’m not apologizing to this bitch I’ll look for Rainbow dash instead.” I said and turned around and began to walk.

I saw the ponies staring at me and whispering but I didn’t care but I saw some stallions some looking at me with shock and disgust some with awe.

I continued walking and looking for rainbow dash but I didn’t see her anywhere and I gave up and turned around and went back to the entrance to the everfree.

……

I was running like a mad man in the everfree and was going crazy with how hungry I was at least I found some apples and berries to hold me back a little but it wasn’t enough.

“Goddamn it I need to find Zecora or the castle I can’t handle this anymore.” I said and continued running and stumbled upon a pack of ten wood wolves.

“You’re not even edible for fuck’s sake.” I said and they began growling.

“Well you don’t know who I’m the manticores are smarter.” I said. I ran at them and began killing them one by one and I finished them off rather quickly.

YOU HAVE LEVELED UP.

“AHHH- oh that scared me been a while since I leveled up.” I said and put the point in strength and continued running.

The box appeared again and said.

YOU GOT STRENGTH AT LEVEL 50.

Your strength will increase noticeably.

“Oh nice so every 50 points at a certain stat it will be better than the normal 50 points that’s a nice perk.” I said. and resumed running again.

…….

I was going no where I wasn’t even close to finding the castle or Zecora.

“How much bigger is this place I didn’t even find a way that feels familiar.” I said and stopped at a place.

“Oh fuck my life.” I said because I was at the entrance of Ponyville.

“Oh this is bullshit I fucking can’t believe that I was so fucking lost that I found my way back to the starting point instead of reaching my destination.” I said and walked towards Ponyville with an angry expression.

“What’s the matter with ya Mike.” I heard Applejack say from the right I turned and looked at her.

“Oh nothing just lost that’s it.” I said back. My stomach grumbled rather loudly.

“.....” I blushed hard.

“Oh ya hungry aren’t ya well you’re in luck ‘cuz us Apples always return tha favor.”

“What do you mean?.” I asked.

“Well would ya like to come to the barn and get a quick bite?.” Applejack said and I wasn’t going to pass that offer.

“Sure I feel like I’m dying.” I said and Applejack looked at me strangely.

…..

We reached an entrance to an apple orchard and man was it big no it was huge so many apple trees it must be hard working on all of those.

“We’re Almost there.” Applejack said and I didn’t respond.

We reached the barn and Applejack opened the door and motioned me inside and I went in.

I saw a large red stallion who looked at me and he was getting ready to charge.

“Now hol’ up there Big mac this is Mike he’s the creature that save Apple bloom and me from the manticores.” Applejack said.

He immediately stopped and looked at me and smiled.

“I suppose that’s a thanks?.” I said.

“Eeeyup.” He said back.

“Well suit yer self there Mike while Big Mac prepares the food for ya.” Applejack said.

“Hmm I thought you would cook didn’t know that Big Mac can cook.” I said.

“Of course he knows how to cook he’s a stallion after all.” Applejack said.

“Wait mares don’t cook?.” I asked.

“Yes they do cook but it’s commonly for the stallions to cook and take care of the place while the mares go to work.” Applejack said.

“Wait so the stallions don’t work?.” I asked.

“They do work but it’s rare to see ‘em work if they're in a herd.” Applejack said.

“So that means this is like humans but on reverse but they’re a bit not too evolved.” I thought.

“Wait that’s why I seem to get strange looks from the stallions and the looks from the mares were like the medieval humans saw a woman with light clothing but just disgust with no lust.” I thought.

We had a light conversation about how I knew Zecora until big mac signaled for us that the food is ready.

I sat down on one of the weird chairs and saw Apple bloom coming from upstairs and an old mare that looked like she was ancient came to us and saw me and smiled.

“Nice muscles you got there young colt.” she said.

“uhhh… thanks?.” I answered confused.

“Well it’s time to eat.” and The table immediately was filled with every apple related food apple pie apple salad and everything.

We began eating and it was actually good and I checked my mana and it was filling until it was full and I was filled to the brim with food.

“Oh boy that was good you sure know how to cook Mac.” I said.

“Sure he does.” Both Apple bloom and Applejack said.

“Well it was nice to meet all of you but i’d hate to intrude thanks for the food.” I said. “By the way Applejack do you know a place that will get me some money from my hunts?.” I said.

“Whataya mean sugar cube.” Applejack said.

“Like the manticor-” I looked at Apple bloom and she was looking at me confused.

“Can I talk to ya privately Applejack.” I said.

“Sure sugarcube.” Applejack said and we got out.

“You know I hunt manticores and it will be useful if I found a place to sell some of the remains of the corpse.” I said.

“Well shoot sugarcube yer strong like a bull but I think Twilight told me once about how they use manticore bones to make strength potions or something.” She said.

“Oh that will be useful do you know where?.” I asked.

“No Ponyville doesn’t have a potion store maybe in Canterlot but not here.” She said.

“Oh too bad… OH by the way do you know where Zecora lives?.” I asked.

“Why?.”

“Well I lost the place that I stay in and maybe she remembers where.” I said.

“Oh well then sugarcube follow me.” She said.

We reached Zecora and I explained to her that I’m lost and thankfully she remembers where she found me so the three of us walked Applejack back to Ponyville and Zecora took me to the castle.

“I don’t know how to repay you Zecora you’re a life saver.” I said.

“Don’t worry about it Mike next time you need something just come to me.” She said and we told each other goodbyes and I went to the castle.

When I got inside I saw a manticore sleeping so I went and killed it and it dropped two magic crystals and I took them and broke them and thought of the store.

The box popped up and I saw available skills and it was only one stat.

Purify so I saw that it was a skill to purify wounds and purify any type of meat and fluids making it edible SO I purchased it and it took my 2 mana points.

I found a place to sit down at and opened the purify skill book and began reading it.

2 HOURS LATER.

“Well this skill was easy.” I said and went to the manticore corpse and purified it and the nasty smell of death disappeared.

The purify skill took 10 mana points so I skinned the manticore and stabbed it with a log and started a big fire and sat down and waited for it to cook.

while I waited I thought that I should see how meditation works so I sat down in a comfortable position and began focusing on myself and I felt the mana in my body running like a looped river.

I started imagining it getting bigger and began counting.

after a minute I noticed the river increased in intensity so I opened my stats and saw that the max mana is currently at 101

“So for every minute of meditating my mana increases by one.” I thought.

I continued meditating for an hour and the the outer layer of the manticore finished cooking so I ate half of it and my mana filled.

I used mana channeling three times and I was at 10 left and I felt full so I thought that I can’t eat anymore but the box appeared again and this time it said.

Side note: when you are full and eat the food immediately turn into mana and if you eat while being full your mana will fill faster.

“Oh that’s good.” I said and began eating the manticore again and I took a good chunk of the meat not too big but as big as my head and my mana was full.

“oh that’s good.”

I used my channeling again until it was with 10 left and ate another chunk of the meat and repeated it again and again until the outer layer was gone so I gathered more wood and started the fire again and began cooking the inner layer and sat down.

this time I meditated and counted to 59 minutes and my mana now was at 220 so I used my channeling 4 times and went to the manticore and this time it took one and a half chunk to fill my mana.
I repeated the last process of using the skill eating and using it again and I felt like I was cheating the system.

…..

….

….

….

…

…

...

My channeling skill still took mana after me using it for 327 more times so I was left with the last layer of the 90th manticore for the span of a week my mana was now at 820 and I gathered 53 magic points

I went and took some bites from the meat filling the new 60 extra mana and used my skill again and began the process again with there was a few bites left from the meat so I ate them and it filled my mana to 180.

I used the skill one time and the box appeared.

YOUR BODY IS USED TO USING THE SKILL.

Mana channeling

Rewards: every time you use mana channeling it won’t take any mana.

“FUCK YEAH FUCKING FINALLY THIS WAS FUCKING DEPRESSING TO DO MAN THIS WAS HARD IM SO FUCKING NOT USING THIS METHOD AGAIN.” I shouted.

I tried to use my channeling and looking at my mana reserves I did my hand and it was still at 120 and expanded it to my fore arm and it didn’t change when I reached my back I stopped and it didn’t change.

so I started to use channeling on the other arm and it didn’t change so I went to the river and did it again until my whole upper body was black and it didn’t take any mana so I started using it at my leg when it reached my calves I noticed that my pants was turning black too.

“Hold on if this is like what I imagine that this is crazy.”

“I went to the pile of purified bones of the manticores that I was planning to sell and took one and used my channeling at it and it turned black again so I hit a rock with it and the rock broke like an egg.

“Ohhh holy shit if that’s the case this is so worth it.” I said.

well then thanks to the manticores I'm at level 14 I have 3 extra points that I didn’t use and began thinking about to use it on what.

So I looked at my stats.

Strength: 50. Agility: 48. Charisma: 45. Stamina: 47.

Health: 300/300. Mana: 120/820.

“Hmmm I think I will make my agility at 50 and stamina at 48.” I said. and I put the points into agility and stamina and the box appeared.

YOU GOT AGILITY AT LEVEL 50.

your speed will increase noticeably.

I tested my new speed and is more that my previous speed by much I was basically leaping between places so I tried to run with no leaping and saw my legs were looking blurry with how much speed they were going in.

I ran at full speed and noticed half a dome appearing and but it was barely noticeable and was faint.

“Oh my god I think 20 more levels and I will be faster than the speed of sound I will be supersonic.” I thought.

……

……

after 2 days of testing my channeling I was headed to Ponyville when I reached it I went into the market and began walking looking for a store that may help me sell the bones but I didn’t find anything so I continued walking.

I found a store that looked like a barber shop and I needed a cut my newly grown beard was long and annoying and dirty

and my hair was getting annoying and needed to be shorter.

it’s been a while since I’ve been walking then when I saw….

“Is that a gryphon?.” I said and started to walk towards it and I felt a malicious intent coming from it so I started walking slowly to see what it would do.

It stopped at a cart selling apples and I saw Big Mac selling and the gryphon walked towards him and they began talking and the conversation was getting louder.

so I trotted towards them and began hearing.

“Where is your sister huh what are you doing selling apples your place is the kitchen and you should be there not sell apples.” The gryphon said loudly and I heard the crowd gasp but I noticed a few who were smiling.

“Ma’am p-please lower your v-voice my sister is b-busy and I’m helping h-her.” Big Mac said while his ears were flatten on his head while shaking slightly.

“OH HELPING HER HOW ABOUT I SHOW YOU WHAT YOU SHOULD REALLY HELP WITH.” The gryphon yelled and raised her claw and swung it at Big Mac who closed his eyes awaiting the inevitable but it didn’t come.

2nd person POV:

Big Mac opened his eyes and looked at the gryphon who had her claws grasped by a familiar looking set of claws He saw Mike the one who Applejack invited to lunch sometime ago holding the claws and pushed the gryphon away from Big Mac.

“Now now no need for violence.” Mike said.

“WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!.” The gryphon yelled.

“Heh no one just a friend with the guy you tried to hit earlier.” Mike said calmly.

“How can he act so calm in front of a female.” Big Mac thought.

“YOU’RE GOING DOWN.” The gryphon yelled and pounced at Mike while raising her claws.

When she reached Mike she swung her claw at Mikes neck with all her might but when her claw collided with his neck there was a sound like when a sword is unsheathed and some sparks flew.

“What was that?.” Big Mac thought and looked at Mikes neck and saw it completely pitch black and he stood there smirking at the gryphon.

Mikes POV:

She thought she could take me with a simple swing and I was done with this fight so.

“Hey this is your last chance get lost before I hurt you.” I said to the gryphon.

“I’M NOT LOOKED DOWN AT BY A MALE.” She yelled and jumped at me again. I sighed and saw her coming at me and I simply ducked the swing and hit her with an uppercut to the stomach I didn’t hit her hard but I intended to push her away and she flew for 20 feet before she could stop and began flying.

“YOU’LL REGRET THIS YOU INFERIOR MALE.” She yelled and flew away.

I walked to Mac to see him staring at me with wide eyes.

“Hey you alright?.” I asked and he didn’t respond.

I snapped my fingers in front of his face multiple times before he snapped.

“YOUR NECK!.” He screamed before looking at my neck and just stared at it.

“Sheesh dude calm down.” I said while picking my ears.

“But how I saw her slash your neck?.” Big Mac said.

“That’s a secret buddy.” I said.

“Hey what’s wrong with you?.” I heard a voice say.

I turned around and saw Twilight.”

“What?.” I asked.

“Why did you do that?.” She said.

“Well she was about to hit Big Mac.” I said back.

“Well you shouldn’t interfere the guards would have subdued her and took her to court.”

“I don’t care I saw her about to hit Mac and I couldn’t just stand there and watch while the guy who made me lunch just takes a beating.” I said.

“Well you should be aware gryphons are known to hold a grudge she will come back with more of her friends to beat you.” Twilight said.

“Twilight dear I eat manticores for dinner what do you think a couple of gryphons could do to me.” I said and Twilights face got a little greener and she was about to say something when we heard a gasp.

We turned around and I saw a yellow winged pony with a pink mane and a shy look looking at me with wide eyes.

“I-it-its y-you.” She said and began to back down before she ran somewhere.”

“What’s with her?.” I asked.

“That’s Fluttershy the one Spike told you about last time you were here and she could talk to animals so she figured that you were the predator and that’s new the one the animals told her it hunts manticores and eats them and it seemed to have no limit to the amount of food he needs.” Twilight said and I heard everyone in the group gasp.

“uhhh… could you lower your voice?.” I said. “I don’t need a whole town scared of me.” The ponies began to get back to their normal lives

“Oh sorry about that.” She said. “So why did you come to Ponyville today?.”

“I have a collection of manticore bones Applejack told me that the bones are used to create potions so I want to sell them but the market doesn’t have any store that buys the bones.” I said.

“How much bones are we talking.”

“What do you use to measure weights?.” I asked

“Kilos.” She said.

“Thank you Mrs. Smith for teaching us the European measuring systems.” I thought.

“I have about 100 kilos of manticore bone.” I said and Twilight gasped.

“Are you lying to me.” She said.

“What would benefit me if I lied to you about that.”

“But how if you have this collection how are you keeping them they begin to rot after a while.” She said.

“That’s the secret of the business.” I said.

“Well you could talk to Mr. and Mrs. Rich they can take the bones to sell them and take some of the bits.” She said.

“By their names I feel like I’m scammed already. Dear Twilight how much is a kilo of manticore bone’s worth?.” I said.

“A kilo is 150 bits.” She said.

“Well cool can you take me so I can see them?.” I asked.

“Actually that’s Mr. Rich over there.” She said and pointed at a stallion haggling about a bunch of carrots.

“Well it was nice to see you Twilight.” I said and walked to Rich while trying to look professional but my appearance of a ripped hobo doesn’t help me I stood beside him and he didn’t notice me until I cleared my throat.

He turned around and looked at me and his eyes widened.

“uhhhh…. c-can I help y-you?.” He said.

“Mr. Rich I assume?.” I asked.

“Yes, do you need something?.” He said.

“Yes I do actually see I would like to make a business offer for you would you like to know about it?.” I asked.

“No kind sir my wife doesn’t like it when I make a deal without her so if you would be so kind we could meet somewhere she choses and you could elaborate on the deal with us.” He said.

“Well then would you be so kind and take me to her so we could agree on a date and a time?.” I asked.

“Yes follow me please.” He said and began walking until we reached a destination… a spa….

“Uhhh why did you bring me here?.” I asked.

“She’s in here getting her hooves trimmed.” He said.

“Okay then hey by the way are the females the dominant sex in all the sapient species here?.” I asked.

“Hmmm gryphons, ponies, minotaurs, changelings, buffalos,...etc. Yeah every species.” He said.

“Alright.” I said and we went inside I was met with a blue mare with a pink mane.

“Welcome to La Te D-” she stopped when she saw me enter after Rich and I walked at her and she looked up at me and was shaking slightly.

I leaned on the counter so I would appear less intimidating.

“Hello there is Mrs. Rich here?.” I asked calmly with a smile and she stopped shaking and sighed.

“Yes she’s getting her stuff to get out.” She said.

“Oh well thank you miss…?” I said.

“Lotus. Lotus blossom and you?.” she said.

“Mike I like your accent by the way.” I said and she widened her eyes and didn’t reply.

I went back to Mr. Rich who was looking at me surprised.

“So you like Lotus?.” He asked.

“What?.” I said.

“Well you said that you liked her accent though it is strange to see a male admitting interest in a female but good for you she’s nice.” He said and I looked horrified.
“What no no no I just didn’t want to be rude that was a mere compliment do you ponies think a compliment is admitting feelings?.” I said.

“No but you said you liked something about her and walked away that means you signaled to her that you’re interested and you would come back a day later and if she compliments you back as soon as you start a conversation it means that she is interested as well.” He said.

“So wait that’s how I admit feelings here?. Just walk to someone strange and say that they look good and walk away.?” I said.

“that’s what I said simply.” He said. “But it’s the mares who compliment first not the stallions.”

“Well you got it all wrong I’m not interested I just wanted her to calm down she was shaking.” I said.

“Oh but what if she admits being interested too?.” He asked.

“Well too bad for her a rejection is coming her way.” I said.

“Oh that’s cruel I think you should clear things out.” He said.

I walked towards her again and she looked at me and blushed but was trying to appear dominant with how she puffed her chest and stood at full height and was talking firmly.

“Hello Mr. Mike how can I help you.” She said.

“Drop the bullshit I want to clear somethings out.” I said. Her ears flattened.

“Sorry if you got it wrong but I’m not interested I was trying to be nice sorry.” I said.

“Ohh….” she said and looked away from me and her eyes began to tear up.

I walked back to Rich.

“What’s with her.” I asked.

“What is wrong with you?.” He said.

“For the second time today nothing.” I said.

“You’re cruel.” He said with venom.

“What is going on here?.” I heard a voice say.

“Oh hi sweetie.” Mr. Rich said.

I turned around and looked at light pink mare with a dark purple mane and she looked like a real rich middle aged self entitled woman.

“Hello there miss I assume that you’re Mrs. Rich I’m Mike and I approached your husband and asked him about a deal and he said that he’d prefer if you were there with him.” I said casually.

“What type of a deal is it?.” She asked.

“Oh your husband said that you could tell me a date and time for us to meet and discuss the details but you’re straight to the point aren’t you.” I said and she just looked at me.

“Well I have manticore bones I would like to sell but this town doesn’t have a store dedicated to potions so somepony told me to come to you.” I said.

“How much does your bones weight?.” She asked.

“I don’t have a clear measurement but it’s 100 kilograms of manticore bones or more.” I said.

“Hmmm that’s a tempting offer how about 60% of the profit gets to us and the rest is to you.” She said.

“I don’t know why I would accept this offer.” I said firmly.

“Well considering that we’re taking the bones from your hunting team and we’re taking it and selling it I think we’re doing more work.” She said.

“Just so you could know I hunt alone and it’s dangerous and I do the work of skinning and extracting the bones and cleaning and keeping them fresh and I’ll bring the bones to you you don’t need to send workers to retrieve it I think it’d be fair for you to get 40% of the profits instead of 60%.” I said.

“Well 55% of the profits final offer.” She said.

“Ok then it was nice meeting you.” I said and stood and began walking to the door.

“Wait.” I heard her say.

“if you can bring the bones by tomorrow with an exact weight measurement we will agree to the 40% deal.” She said.

“Deal. Where do you want them to be at?.” I said.

“We’ll be waiting for you at the train station tomorrow at 9 AM.” She said.

“Alright then see ya.” I said and went out and started heading to Twilights library.

…..

I knocked on the door and heard a sound like scratching on wood and the door opened and it was spike.

“Oh hi Mike you need something?.” He asked.

“Yes, is Twilight around?.” I said.

“Yeah she’s here hold on for a second” he went in and after a moment he came with twilight.

“Oh hi Mike Spike told me that you wanted me.” She said.

“Yeah I need some help please.” I said.

“What do you need.” She said.

“It’s about the manticore bones I need a place to store them because I need to bring them to the train station tomorrow and I can’t just bring them with one run.” I said.

“I don’t know about that Mike this is a library not a storage room.” She said.

I sighed. “Well do you know someone who can help me?.” I said.

“No I don’t think so.” She said.

We stared at each other for a second before she said.

“Why don’t you go to Rarity she has a large collection of big boxes because of how much fabric she buys.”

“Damn Twilight you really are smart not just a librarian just for the money.” I said and her cheeks were with a hint of red now.

“T-thank you….” She said.

“Well I’m going to her now bye for now.” I said and headed to Rarity and knocked on the door.

“Coming” I heard her say.

She opened the door and saw me.

“Oh hello mike what do you want?.” She said.

“Hi Rarity I’ve been wondering since you have a boutique Twilight told me that you purchase a great amount of fabrics and have spare large boxes.” I said.

“Yes darling I do have a few do you want them?.” She asked and was visibly happy.

“Yeah I do need them can I get about 3 or 4?.” I said.

“Absolutely darling I wanted to get rid of them for a while now.” She said.” “Wait here for a moment.”

She bought the boxes were really large like they were not what I expected and I was thinking about how she would take them out when she opened what seemed to be hinges on both sides of the door and opened another set of doors.

“How didn’t I notice those?.” I thought an she brought the boxes to me.

“Well darling here they are.” She said.

“Thanks rarity.” I said and took the boxes to Twilight again and made her weight them apparently she had a spell to measure weights so I took them to the castle.

I packed the bones and sat down and began meditating.

……

it was night time and my meditation didn’t do me any good because I kept zoning out so I just went to sleep to hopefully wake up the next day early in the morning.

……

I woke up and jumped in the river to clean my self a little and took a drink and grabbed some vines from the forest and knotted the boxes together and took them to Ponyville and sat down by the train.

…..

After I took the bones to Twilight they were at 278 Kilos.

The riches came and we greeted each other and I told them about the weight of the bones and they took them and went by the train.

“Well they’re coming back after 3 days so what to do in this time.” I thought and was walking in ponyville market but something was bothering me.

“Who the hell is that.” I thought. There was something that was watching me since I left the Richs and I can’t find it.

“I’m just going to ignore it.” I thought. “Hmmm since I have 3 days worth of free time lets check what skills I can unlock.”

“All of them are trash and there is no healing skills.” I said.

“Well let me see what this skill does.” I said and clicked on the skill.

MANA MANIPULATION.

A skill that lets you manipulate your mana to create unlimited stuff from your Imagination.

The mana cost depends on what you create.

“What does that mean?.” I asked. “I can’t get anything and I can’t try it until I purchase it. But the real question is it worth it.” I thought for a minute.

“Well fuck it it’s not like I can’t get anymore crystals.” I said.

I purchased the skill and the book appeared in my hands so I headed back to the library and just barged in.

“AHHH- BUCK Mike don’t you know how to knock.” Twilight said in an angry tone.

“Uhhh… isn’t this a public library and the first time I visited I heard you complain about how they knock instead of just going in.” I said.

“Wait yeah you’re right sorry you just startled me a little.” She said. “So what brings you here?.” She asked.

“Came to read a book.” I said.

“What is it’s name.” She said.

“I doubt that you have it but I brought it with me.” I said and showed her the book.

“Mana manipulation?.” She said. “What’s it about?.”

“Just a book.” I said.

“Yeah what is it about.” She said.

“Eh nothing important.” I said and walked towards the reading table and sat down and began reading.

…

It’s been two hours since I started reading and twilight was stealing glances on the book every now and then and she tried to make me do a tounge slip so she could at least think of the book’s about.

“Hey can I get some quiet time I need to focus.” I said to Twilight who was becoming visibly irritated because I refuse to let her know about the book.

“Well if you would tell me what the book is about I will give you some quiet time.” She said with a smug grin plastered on her face.

“Oh Twilight you really don’t want to have a battle of wits with me.” I said.

“Oh I’m not taking a battle of wits I’m just doing what I do I’m a librarian after all.” She said the smile still on her face.

“Just 3 more pages Mike only 3 more.” I thought and ignored her last comment.

She was persistent and she became more intense in her buggin but I did my best to ignore her.

“Well then I’m done.” I said and closed the book that I just finish.

“Oh will you tell me about the book.” Twilight said.

“Nope I’m done I finished it.” I said.

“Oh how about I buy it from you.” She said.

“Nope.” I said simply.

“Well you’re clearly out of bits right now and it would be nice to have a couple on you.” She said.

“No how about this.” I said and opened the book and lowered it to her face.

She squeed loudly and walked to the book before she could read the first word I ripped the book to shreds and crumbled them.

“........... get out.” She said quietly.

“What was that dear I didn’t hear you.” I said now I’m the one with the smug grin.

“GET OUUUUT.” She screamed and started to push me towards the door.

“I’VE NEVER MET SOMEPONY WHO’S RUDE LIKE YOU ARE AND SHAMELESS AS YOU ARE GET OUT I CAN’T BUCKING STAND YOU.” She was red and screaming and her horn began to glow.

“Hey hey calm down now.” I said.

“DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO YOU’RE JUST A PATHETIC APE YOU WON’T FOOL ME WITH THE MANTICORES JOKE AGAIN YOU BUCKING BALD MONKEY.”

“What was her name?. Butterfly or something I forgot but she proved what I do.”

“NO SHE PROVED THERE WAS A PREDATOR IN THE EVERFREE NOT A BALD MONKEY WITH NO NATURAL DEFENCES AND SMALL CANINES JUST GET OUUUT.” She screamed the last part and a beam flew towards me from her horn.

“Damn you’re really that angry.” I said and flicked the beam away and ran out I turned around and saw her at the door.

“DON’T EVER COME BACK YOU FREAK OF NATURE.” She said and closed the door.

“Fucking bitch who do you think you are.” I muttered and began walking to the everfree.

“It was just a fucking book but no why do I have to deal with all the crazy ponies in this town.

“Ah just what I needed.” I said and turned around and saw everyone staring at me but that didn’t bother me what bothered me was the intense feeling of being watched from before is back.

“Ah I’m not dealing with the creeps the crazy ponies are enough I said and went into the everfree.

“Well what ever it is it’s scared from the everfree.” I thought.

…

I Reached the castle and began testing my skill.

I imagined a sword in my hand and it started forming and I saw my mana being taken.

“Damn I need to get used to this skill but the question is how?.” I said.

the sword finished forming and it was slightly transparent and blood red and I swung it and it felt like I was holding nothing.

I tested it on a boulder and it cracked.

“Hmmm what if I do this…” I said and began channeling the mana slowly towards the but it didn’t turn black and I felt my mana stops once it reaches the sword.

“How do I deal with this.” I said.

“I need to have a way to make it stronger.” I said.

“Hold on.” I imagined the mana in the sword increase in the amount but hold the shape and it was getting darker and darker until it went it was a darker shade of red and I swung at the boulder.

“damn.” I said the sword cut through the boulder like it was dough.

“this is really sharp but I’m almost out of mana.” I said and went to one of the purified manticore corpses and began cooking it.

“Oh boy I have nothing to do but I don’t want to meditate.” I said.

I opened the my skills again and began looking at them.

“Boy they all are stupid like why would I need a skill that allows me to eat grass why isn’t there a healing spell.” I said.

I opened each skill and the description was as stupid as their names until I reached the 8th skill.

“Walker would possibly benefit me from a skill named walker.” I said and opened the description.

WALKER.

This skill allows you to train you’re mana skills in your sleep without the use of your real mana but the benefits of using skills still applies so you can get used to a skill.

“Holy shit now that’s straight up cheating.” I said.

“But it can’t be that good there must be a twist.” I thought.

I purchased the skill and the box appeared instead of a book.

You will receive a fatal injury and will be passed out for a day you have 5 minutes to make prepare for the wound if you make it you receive the skill walker.

“Well that seems easy.” I said and prepared my self for a leap towards Ponyville but when I pushed my leg I just did a normal one leg jump and fell down.

“What!?.” I quickly got up any tried to use my channeling to get my self there faster and the box appeared.

All of your gained stats and skills are blocked until you finish the test.

“SHIT.” I screamed and began running for my life towards Ponyville.

I kept running and falling down because of small stuff like twigs and vines that I’m used to just rip out with my speed.

“hah… hah….hah….hah.” I’m panting and tired from the running and my heart feels like it’s going to burst.

…

I looked at the box and there was 2 minutes left.

“oh no no no no.” I said. and began to push myself to my limits attempting to reach ponyville.

I was near the edge of the forest.

“Almost...hah….there.” I said. and my legs were about to give out.

I made it out of the forest.

“Just...hah...need….hah….to….hah...find….hah...a....hospital...hah.” as soon as I said that I felt an indescribable pain across my chest.

“AHHH.” I yelled and fell to my knees while holding my chest.

“I looked down at my chest and removed my hands and saw a hole the size of my fist in the middle of my chest.

I tried to yell but I when I tried I felt myself plop to the ground.

…..

….

….

….

….

….

….

….

….

….

I began hearing noises.

“He’s not going to make it.” I heard a faint sound.

“Three quarters of his heart are gone.” the faint sound repeated.

“All we can do is make him a magical artificial blood flow so his brain doesn’t stop.”

“He’ll live for a few months and these months he will spend bedridden until it’s time for his inevitable end.”

The sounds stopped All I can feel is darkness and nothing.

I can’t feel my body just the darkness.

the darkness around me the darkness in me the darkness loves me.

It doesn’t want to let go it wants me to stay.

Its cold its cruel.

I’m scared I’m empty I’m lonely.

I didn’t go through the mind taking process of getting used to one of my skills.

...

“....ughhhh….” I’m lying on something soft.

“....where am I….” I said.

I opened my eyes to see a white roof at my face.

“...huh?....” I woke up in a.

“...hospital room.” I said.

“hospital room.” I said again.

“I made it….” I said as I remembered everything.

“heh...heh….heh…”

“AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH IN YOUR FACE BITCH.”

“YOU”RE NOT TAKING ME.”

“I ESCAPED YOU FOR THE SECOND TIME.” I was yelling until it hit me.

The pain.

The horrible pain in my chest.

I felt like I was about to puke.

I felt lightheaded.

I felt nauseous.

I felt sick.

I see a black rectangular.

I focused my sight it was.

“the box….”

CONGRATULATIONS.

You have passed the will to live test.

you received the skill.

Walker.

you can develop your skills in your sleep.

The door to my room barged open and I saw a pony with a lab coat and a another pony with that seemed to be a nurse with the hat she was wearing on her head after them came Applejack, Twilight, butterfly or something girl, Rarity, and Rainbow dash and this time there was another hyper pink normal pony.

The box appeared again.

HEALING WOUNDS.

I smiled at them and the doctor pony was about to say something but I stopped him when I stood up.

“SIR LIE DOWN YOU’RE INJURED.” He screamed and ran at me.

I pushed him aside and grabbed my bandaged chest and ripped the bandages I heard all the ponies gasp except for the nurse who looked at me with wide eyes.

I began feeling the familiar feeling of the yellow glow.

Rarity fainted and Twilight threw up the yellow one ran out of the room before the doctor even ran at me Applejack and Rainbow dash just looked green and the pink ones hair straightened and she seemed less pink.

I saw the nurse look at me with awe when she saw my heart repairing and constructed itself back again and fibers began forming and my lungs came back then the bones and the muscles between the ribs and the rest and my skin was there again no scar no side effects.

I looked at them for a minute none of them said anything.

The doctor stood again and saw that my injury is gone and just stared.

I walked out from the hospital and stood outside.

I did my channeling and it worked so I that means my skills and stats returned.

…

I looked at the forest and saw Zecora coming out from there so I went to her.

When I was close I noticed something.

Fear. A lot of fear she was shaking her eyes were wide and her breathing is fast.

I ran to her. “What’s wrong Z.” I said.

She didn’t answer didn’t even look at me she just looked at the forest.

I walked to the forest and she stopped me.

“DON’T GO IN THERE.” She screamed.

“Why.” I said.

“No Mike there is a horde of creatures they cut trees break stones they were too fast I couldn't see them.” She said.

I just ignored her and went to the forest again.

The place seems more grim than usual.

…

I continued walking around the forest trying to find what the strange creatures are until I reached Zecora's hut and I saw it.

“A chimera.” I whispered but it heard me and turned and saw me.

It didn’t growl all it did was pounce.

“GAH.” I yelled and jumped to the side but not in time to dodge its claws and there was a good sized gash on my skin.

it was almost as fast as me.

“This is not good.” I said.

and it pounced again this time I used channeling on my arms and put them in front of me and it slashed it.

I felt it it scraped my steel like skin.

“Goddamn it.” I said and pounced at it with channeling on my legs and punched it with all my might on its cheek.

There was a shockwave that came from the contact and the speed of the fist but it didn’t move it just titled it’s head to the side.

“FUCK.” I yelled as I felt the snake on its tail bite me in the shoulder I felt the venom going in me.

I punched it again and jumped back and purified my body.

“This is not in my favor!.” I said. and looked at the chimera waiting for its next move but the next move surprised me.

I saw a fireball coming from it’s mouth towards me.

I quickly dodged it and jumped to the side but I was rammed in the back. Hard.

I flew for a few meters before colliding with a tree and fell down on my knees.

“If this keeps going I’ll die yet again.” I said. The chimera was preparing for another pounce.

“I will use everything.” I said and got up to my feet.

“if this doesn’t work then I’m doomed.” I made all of my remaining mana turn into a sword this time using everything it was a black with a shade of red.

“I have to do it.” I said and held it with two of my hands and channeled my mana to to my arms and back and my legs.

We pounced at each other and it was about to strike me with its paw but I swung at it with my sword with all my might.

The sword cut its paw clean and it cut all the trees in its field of attack and it fell from my hand and was dispelled.

The chimera was about to jump back but it couldn’t do it fast enough as I punched it in it’s head with all my might and this time it flew back to a tree.

“AHHHH.” I jumped at it again and began punching it with every punch there was a shockwave.

I punched it again and again and began stomping it and it’s snake tail died but the chimera was still alive.

“JUST DIE ALREADY.” I yelled and began punching it again and again until it went limp.

“hah...hah...hah This is bad if there are more of it then I need to get stronger.” I said and the box appeared.

YOU HAVE LEVELED UP

YOU HAVE LEVELED UP

YOU HAVE LEVELED UP.

“Three levels from just one of them they really are hard.

The chimera dropped 25 magic crystals and I broke them.

I put the 2 points in stamina making it at 50 and the one left in strength.

I thought for a moment before opening my skill store and one skill caught me off guard.

SPECIAL PERK: TRUE OMNIVORE

A perk that lets you eat raw meat like any carnivore and the ability to eat plant matter like any herbivore.

You can just eat meat or just plants and it won’t have any side effects if you neglect one of them.

“Neat.” I said and purchased it.

“what the.” I felt my front teeth and canines change my canines were longer and leaned forward and my front teeth were getting sharper I felt them with my tongue and my front teeth felt like they were razor sharp and my canines could break apart bones.

I felt my grinders and the were slightly pointed but the grinding part was still there.

I grabbed some leaves and tried to eat them.

“why the hell do these taste good.” I said and began munching them.

I looked at the chimera corpse.

“I wonder?.” I ripped the skin and grabbed a muscle and tore it apart from the bone.

the smell was intoxicating my mouth was watering and I felt my heart pounding faster.

I bit down the muscle and my teeth cut them smoothly.

“Holy shit.” *munch* *munch* “ this is amazing.” *munch* munch* “this is the best thing I ate in my life.” *munch* munch*.

I began eating the chimera like a mad man but it tasted amazing. its tongue brain muscles some bones.

“Ahh I’ve never felt this filled from food in all my life.” I said and patted my stomach.

“Well I’m tired I gotta go back to sleep. Need to try the walker spell.” I said and got up and was about to go to the direction of the castle.

I felt a menacing presence a kind presence but a strong one.

I turned around and saw a horse not a pony but a horse a smaller horse but it was taller that any pony I ever saw taller that Big Mac.

It had both wings and a horn a long pointy horn her mane was flowing in a non existing wind and there was an ass tattoo of the sun on her butt she was clear white.

I got into a fighting position.

I flashed my teeth and growled by instinct I didn’t plan to do that.

“Please calm down.” She said in a nice female motherly tone that was somehow calming.

I stood normal and closed my mouth.

there was a mix of ponies in armor who all looked identical coming out from behind the trees some were male some were female.

“Who are you?.” I said firmly.

“I’m princess Celestia ruler of Equestria.” She said.
I just looked at her and she looked like she was waiting for something.

“SHOW RESPECT AND BOW TO HER.” One of the female guards yelled.

“I’m not bowing to anyone.” I said and looked at the guard with a neutral look.

“YOU BU-” She was cut off when Celestia raised her hoof in front of the gaurd.

“Silence.” She said firmly.

“Do you know what did this to the chimera.” Celestia said and pointed at the chimera one of the guards looked at it’s mauled body then looked at me then threw up.

“Celestia looked at the guard before she looked at me again.

She looked at my bloody hands and the wounds on me and my lips that were red from the blood.

“Was it you.” She said and her eyes widened and her wings stood a little.

“Should I tell them?. But she’s the princess of this land and I doubt she would let me off that easily if she knew.”

I went into liar mode.

“No I just found it and it was a free meal so I took it.” I said.

“Then why are you injured?.” She said and narrowed her eyes a little.

“Oh this I had an accident with a sword I wanted to learn how to use a sword but I failed when I tried to block a manticore and the sword went to my arm.” I said.

“What’s wrong with the chimera anyways it’s just an animal.” I said confused and tried to get some answers.

“I thought they went extinct but I was wrong. These creatures are fast strong and dangerous one of them could maul over 100 guards.” She said grimly.

“So?.” I said.

“If the monster that was able to kill the chimera still loose I’m afraid for my little ponies safety.” She said.

“What would you do to the monster that killed the chimera.” I asked.

“I’m going to send it to tartarus.” She said casually.

“Oh too bad for it anyways I was about to head home.” I said and turned around and began walking away.

“YOU DISRESPECTFUL MONKEY.” I heard a yell and the sound of an unsheathing sword and the mare that screamed ran at me.

I turned around and was the pony swing the sword with her magic at me and I used my channeling at my hand and grabbed the sword.

I squeezed the sword blade and crushed it.

“You’re playing with fire pony.” I said grimly my voice was carrying a growl with it.

Her ears laid on her skull and she began shaking a little.

“HALT. you are under arrest for disrespecting the princess and an assault on a guard.” Another mare said and they began to circle me.

I looked at celestia who just looked at me like she was…

“She’s wanting to see what I’ll do to see if I was lying.” I thought.

“I didn’t disrespect your princess and the guard that you say I assaulted attacked me first.” I said trying to act scared.

I used my channeling on all of my body but it was not to the point that it turned black just to have some protection just in case.

The guards ran at me and I got into a defensive position.

“STOP.” I a voice that sounded like twilight yell.
And it was Twilight indeed.

The guards stopped and looked at Twilight.

“Princess you’re mistaking this is Mike the creature that I told you about the one who tore apart the book.” Twilight said.

“Twilight Sparkle my faithful student.” Celestia said.

“HOLY SHIT I GOT WITH THE BAD SIDE OF A STUDENT OF THE RULER.” I screamed in my head.

“He didn’t get rid of the chimera he can’t do that he’s just a liar that convinced us that he can kill manticores so he could have some fear from him so no one would bother him.” Twilight said.

“Ouch” I thought.

The princess looked at me with a raised eyebrow. I just smiled sheepishly at her.

“Twilight looked at me and her eyes widened.

“Wait. Mike doesn’t have canines like those.” Twilight said and she began getting closer to me.

“Today I saw Mike when he got out from the hospital he had small canines.” She said again.

She looked at the mauled chimera and at me again.

Her face went green.

“And Fluttershy told me that the animals of the everfree said that the thing who kills the manticores cooks them everytime he doesn’t eat them raw.” She said the last and she was about to throw up but she got a hold of herself.

“You look like Mike but with bigger canines. Who are you?.” Twilight said and narrowed her eyes.

“uhhh.. I’m Mike.” I said.

“You’re not fooling me with anything if you are Mike prove it.” She said.

“Hmmmm… OH. The book that you went nuts over was named mana manipulation and you called me a shameless pathetic ape and a bucking bald monkey.” I said with a smile.

She looked surprised then she blushed quickly and looked at the princess who were shaking her head in a disapproving manner.

“Sorry Mike I was just confused with your new teeth.” Twilight said.

“Don't worry about it.” I said.

“But how did this happen?.” She asked.

“Uhhh…. I hit puberty.” I lied.

“What!?. How is puberty related with your change of teeth.” She said.

“When my species hit puberty their theen change.” I said.

“But I don’t know any species that do than.” She said.

“Well we do so just deal with it.”

“Wait how old are you?.” She said.

“23 why?.” I said.

“Do you really want me to believe that you just hit puberty in a matter of an hour and you hit it at 23?.” She asked.

“I’m not answering anymore questions after all you said that you can’t stand me and didn’t want to see me again.” I said.

“uhh…” She was about to say something but I cut her off and turned around and left them.

…

I was preparing to go to sleep and test my walker skill so I laid down and used the skill and began drifting to sleep.

…

…

I woke up in the next morning.

“What the fuck.” I said.

I stood up and was looking at the sky.”

“DID I GO THROUGH THE TEST JUST SO I COULD NOT USE THE SKILL.” I screamed.

“OH THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING.” I rambled for about an hour.

“God damn it I’m hungry.” I said.

“The Richs came back today how about I go and get my cut and see what the restaurants in ponyville have to offer maybe get a haircut and get some clothes.

I went to Ponyville and asked about the train.

It came back an hour ago.

I went to the riches and knocked on the door.

The door opened and I saw a pony in a butler suit.

“How can I help you sir.” He said.

“Are Mr. and Mrs. Rich here.?” I asked.

“Yes they are here. What do you need.?” He asked.

“Tell them that Mike the manticore bones guy is here.” I said.

“Uhh… Come inside sir.” He said and stepped aside.

I went in their mansion and while we were walking I checked my passive stats.

PASSIVE STATS:
Perception: 80 , Dexterity: 45 , Intelligence : 45 , Metabolism: 55 , Reflexes: 90.

“Oh wow so the main changes are in perception and reflexes.” I thought.

“So everyday uses of the passive stats makes them level.” I thought.

…

We went into the living room and the butler went into another room and another butler came.

“Would you like anything to eat or drink sir?.” He said.

“Now that you mention it could you bring me a cup of water sir.” I said. He looked at me and I noticed confusion coming from him.

“Uhhh I’m a butler so just call me a butler.” He said.

“I’m not calling you that you’re a living being so I don’t care I will call you however I want to.” I said.

He smiled a little. “For a wealthy individual you really are a nice guy.” He said.

“Wait I’m wealthy?.” I asked.

“Uhhhhh I thought you were in the manticore bones business.” He said.

“I think so this is the first time that I do it. And before that I was dirt broke I didn’t have one single bit on me.” I said.

“Oh.” He said. “I will bring you the water.” he left the room and the door the previous butler walked in opened and came the Richs.

“Hello there Mr. Mike.” Mrs. Rich said.

“Hi there.” I said.

they sat down and began to talk to me about how I’ve been and all.

“Let’s get straight to the point I said.”

“How much did you sell the bones for.” I said.

“Oh we sold them for 150 bits for a kilo.” Mrs. Rich said.

I noticed deception.

I flashed my teeth and began talking with a growl.

“I don’t like being lied to.” I said grimly.

Their eyes widened.

“uhhh… 200 b-bits f-for a kilo” She said.

I noticed deception again.

I a fraction of a second I was in front of her and I towered over her this time my voice was a complete growl.

“How. MUCH.” I said.

“350 BITS 350 BITS PLEASE I’M SORRY.” She screamed.

I didn’t notice deception.

I did the maths in my head for a while.

“That’s 97300 bits so that means….. hmmmm…… ah 58380 bits.”

“I would like to get them please.” I said. hiding my teeth and sitting down again.

“T-they’re in p-Ponyville b-bank.” She said.

I got out of the house without anything more to say.

I began walking around town seeing the ponies living their lives happily.

But their smiles and conversations stops as soon as I enter their field of view and it was making me sad.

“Heh I’m the freak of nature to them after all.” I thought and continued walking until I had enough of walking.

I walked to a pony selling carrots.

“Hi there.” I said.

“Hello would you like to but some carrots.” She said.

I didn’t feel and fear coming from her she just felt slightly happy.

“No actually I want to ask you where is the bank?.” I asked.

“Oh it’s down this road third street to your right.” She said with a smile.

“Thank you.” I said and went to the bank.

I walked in and saw every pony in the bank stand still and look at me with wide eyes.

“I’m not robbing the bank calm the fuck down.” I said.

The bank staff sighed and continued working and I was approached by a pony

“You must be Mr. Mike.” A stallion said.

“The one and only.” I said.

“I believe there is a business deal with you and the Richs.” He said.

“Yeah I Have 58380 bits in here that I want to take.

“Hmmm I don’t think that’s how much the Richs told me that you owe.” He said.

“Oh really you can ask them but they sold the manticore bones for 97300 bits and they got 40% of the profit so the rest is to me.”

“You seem right but could you wait here for a minute.” He said.

“Sure.” I said.

I was waiting when I saw a minotaur come into the bank.

“Nice pecks.” I thought and he went to one of the receptionists.

Then 4 more minotaurs came in and two blocked the door and the first one said.

“EVERYPONY GET YOU’RE BITS AND GIVE THEM TO US OR WE’LL KILL EVERYPONY IN HERE.” He screamed

The ponies eyes widened and some began shaking while some who seemed to be on the poor side began to tear up.

“Ya ain’t takin’ a bit outta me.” I turned to the sound and it was granny Smith.

I stood and watched as the minotaur walked to granny Smith.

He raised his fist about to punch her.

I Ran between them and when the fist was about to reach her I grabbed his wrist and looked at him.

“Get. Lost.” I said grimly As I crushed his wrist.

He screamed and raised his fist and tried to punch me only to scream again as he felt like he punched a block of steel.

I dispelled the channeling from my cheek punched him in the chest. I felt his ribs break and he flew back a little.

I walked slowly to him and grabbed his head and began dragging him towards the minotaurs on the door and they looked at me with wide eyes.

I heard the other minotaur scream as he ran at me but I channeled my hand and punched him in the face and saw his muzzle push back into his skull and 6 teeth came out from his mouth.

He went out cold and I grabbed him too and dragged him towards the minotaurs on the door who were shaking.

I looked up and gazed in their eyes.

“What would you like. Come with me or suffer the same fate as these two.” I said calmly.

They walked away from the door and I opened it and saw guards standing on the door surrounding it and there was the stallion from earlier with them.

I walked towards them.

“HALT. You are under arrest for the attempt of robbing a bank.” A stallion said.

I just continued walking towards them and threw the minotaurs at them and knocked out the remaining two and brought them to the guards.

“These are the robbers not me. Don’t believe me ask the ponies inside.” I said and looked at the bank stallion.

“I believe we you were about to give me the bits.” I said and he nodded and came with me.

…

…

I was walking around Ponyville this time the ponies smiled when they saw me and some thanked me and I felt happy about it.

But there was the few I noticed hate coming from them.

“Guess that rule stands where ever you go.” I thought.

I opened a bank account and took some bits and bought a saddlebag it was weird but it works.

I went to the carrot selling mare.

“Oh hello again. Need something?.” She said.

“Yeah how much is for a carrot?.” I asked with a smile.

She looked at my teeth and canines.

“Uhhh… I don’t think that would be healthy for you.” she said.

“Why?.” I asked.

“Aren’t you a carnivore?.” She said.

“Oh no dear I’m an omnivore.” I said.

“Okay then three bits per carrot.” She said with a smile.

“Hmmm…. some of your carrots seem to be going bad.” I said.

She sighed. “Yeah every plant selling shop here have this problem and it’s annoying.” She said.

“Don’t you ponies have a spell to keep them fresh?.” I asked.

“Yes, we do but do you know how much expensive is to get a unicorn to use the spell.” She said.

“Oh sorry I brought it up I didn’t know.” I said.

“Don’t worry about it.” She said and I noticed a hint of sadness in her.

“How about I pay you back?.” I said.

“What do you mean?.” She asked.

I grabbed a rotting carrot and held it in front of her.

I purified the carrot and it got back its colour and the rotting disappeared.

She gasped and looked at me.

“Is this for real or is it just an illusion.” She said.

I took a bite from it and gave her the carrot. “Try it.” I said.

She seemed hesitant but took a bite and her eyes widened.

“How did you even do that.” She said.

“That’s a secret dear.” I said.

I purified the whole stand of carrots and they were a lot so my mana was hanging.

“I don’t know what to say.” She said.

“Oh and don’t worry about them they won’t begin to rot again.” I said.

“What do you mean?.” She said.

“Didn’t you say there was a spell to keep the food fresh?.” I asked.

“Yes but the spell elongates the amount of time it takes to the rot to set in.” She said.

“Well consider this a favor. The carrots won’t go bad ever you can leave one of those carrots for 10 years and it would still be the same.” I said.

She began to tear up.

“It’s too good to be true sir.” She said.

“How about a bet.” I said and she looked at me. “If one of those carrots begins to rot you’ll owe me 1000 bits.” I said.

“You’re that confident in this are you.” She said and one tear fell down her cheek.

“I-I-I uhh I.” She stuttered and came to me and hugged me.

“.....Thank you.” She said.

I didn’t respond I was weirded out.

“Is it really that hard to keep this work?.” I thought.

I ran my hand on her mane and we broke the hug and she went back on her stand wiped her tears.

A pony came to the stand.

“Good harvest this year eh Carrot Top?.” The pony said.

Carrot looked at me and I shook my head in a NO.

“Yes it was.” Carrot top said with a smile.

The pony bought some carrots and took a bite from one of the carrots.”

“IMMMM I’ve never tasted carrots this good. Keep up the good work Carrot Top.” The pony said and walked away.

I was about to walk away when carrot stopped me and asked for my name.

I told her my name and left this time I looked for a restaurant.

I was walking looking for one when the hyper pink pony from the hospital appeared in front of me.

“HiI’mPinkiePieyousawmeinthehospitalIwa-.” I grabbed her mouth shut.

“Take a breath and talk slower please.” I said.

she nodded and I took my hand.

“Hi I’m Pinkie Pie you saw me the other day at the hospital I was with Twilight and the rest of my friends I didn’t talk to you because you seemed like a bad pony but I saw how you caught those bank robbers and Applejack told me how you saved the crusaders so now I think you’re a good pony and I want to apologize and what’s your name.” She said all of this in one breath.

“Uhhhh…. I’m Mike.” I said because I just had a brain fart from her rambling.”

“Hello Mike come to Sugarcube Corner after an hour.” She said and began hopping somewhere.

“what the fuck.” I said.

…

I found a restaurant and went walked in.

I sat down at one of the tables and picked up the menu.

“Hmmm…” I was looking through the menu and the waiter came to me.

“Good day to you sir what would you like to order.” She said.

“I can’t choose anything what would you recommend.” I said.

“if I were you I would order hay fries with a daisy sandwich and mashed potatoes with a chocolate milkshake.” I didn’t care about anything but the last word got me off guard.

“You have milkshakes!.” I said rather loudly.

“Errr yes we do sir.” She said.

“I want a plate of the things you recommended and 4 chocolate milkshakes.” I said with a smile.

“Oh sir I don’t think you’d want to eat this.” She said.

“Don’t worry I can eat like you ponies so it’s not a problem.” I said.

“Okay then that would be 93 bits.” She said.

I handed her the bits and began waiting for the food.

I felt like I was being watched so I started to look around and saw a few mares looking at me all of them had one thing in common.

Lust.

“Oh fuck.” I said.

“Humans didn’t look at me like this but ponies do.”

I sighed and waited until the food arrived and once the pony began putting the food on the table I smiled as soon as I smiled I felt my watchers increase dramatically.

I looked from the corner of my eyes and saw the ponies looking at me confused.

I took a small amount of hay fries and began munching on them.

“These are not half bad.” I said as I got another bite for the fries.

“Then I tried the mashed potatoes.

“Tastes like mashed potatoes from home.”

I opened the sandwich and took a daisy out and ate it.

“Tastes strange but I kinda like it.”

I took the whole sandwich and ate it.

I was full but there was still the hay fries and the potatoes and most importantly the milkshakes.

So I ate and my mana filled as well so I tried something.

I imagined a spoon forming using my manipulation but I imagined it invisible to everyone else except me and I formed it.

The ponies didn’t seem to notice so I imagined an invisible hand form and made its way to a pony I waved the hand in front of them but he didn’t notice it so I poked him and he turned to see nothing.

“Heh this will come in handy.” I thought and every time my mana filled I just used manipulation to form a big block filling it again with mana every time I felt full.

I finished the food and the milkshakes were great.

I pulled 50 bits from my bag and put it on the table.

I got out and the waiter came after me.

“SIR SIR.” She said.

I turned towards her.

“You forgot some of your bits sir.” She said and handed me the 50 bits.

“Oh I didn’t forget those that’s a tip.” I said.

“I can’t accept a tip this large.” She said.

“Okay then do what ever suits you.” I said and walked away.

“This town’s cozy.” I thought.

“Maybe it won't be so bad if I lived here.”

“Think about it later let’s see what does the pink demon wants.” I thought.

…

I’m in front of Sugarcube Corner.
