《Nirvana》Cave
Advertisement
While camping for more Boars to appear he noticed that they arrived from the same general direction.
He wanted to investigate why this occurred. But his urge to level up made him kill the next few boars.
After about 15 minutes he managed to kill 2 boars which gave him the last bit of experience to induce a level up.
[You have leveled up to level 1]
[You have 5 free attribute boosts available]
Leveling up allowed him to grow stronger. He thought about what stats he could put his attribute points. He didn't want to put it on Spirit since he was more of a swordsman. Although he still didn't have a sword to use.
He also didn't want to put it in the Vitality or the Intelligence stat. He had enough Vitality for level 1 and he didn't have any magic spells to make use of the intelligence stat.
Emile decided to put 3 points into his Strength stat and 2 points into his Agility stat. His Strength became 32. His Agility became 18.
Emile chose to follow his original thought process of finding out where the Boars came from. He waited for a Boar to appear.
After 3 minutes of waiting for a Boar, it finally decided to show up. Emile started to watch the Boar secretly.
The Boar drank water from the creek. It then decided to walk around hunting for small animals such as mice.
Emily waited patiently as he continued to crawl through the shrubs and bushes. He noticed that the Boar was slowly moving towards a specific direction.
After 30 minutes of secretly following the Boar, the Boar arrived in front of a cave. Emile decided to wait until the Boar entered the cave and was out of sight.
The cave was on the side of a hill which was plentiful in the forest. This place was inconspicuous and would have taken a lot of luck to find if the player didn't choose to follow a Boar.
He then entered the cave.
[You have discovered a new location]
[You have discovered The Boar's Cave]
[You have gained 100 fame]
[You will have the opportunity to earn more fame if you clear the cave]
Emile decided to analyze the system's words. He didn't know what the fame did. He noticed that there would most likely be many mobs, Boars to be specific.
Emile wanted to scout the location to see if it was possible for him to complete the Cave at this moment.

Emile encountered a problem as soon as he entered. He couldn't see in the dark. The entrance was the only place with a bit of light.
Emile felt disappointed about not being able to see in the dark. He realized that he would have to get an equipment that allowed night vision or find a torch.
Emile left the cave and entered Song Forest once again. Emile decided to go back to the village to find something that could fix his problems.
After about 20 minutes of walking in the direction of the village, he noticed that there were players farming the Level 0 chickens.
He ignored them and continued to walk forward. Other player noticing that he came from deeper in the woods started to gossip about him. "How did he leave the deeper part of the woods," said one bystander.
"Aren't there like strong mobs in there" replied another bystander.
"I heard that the boar can kill you in 2 hits," said, another bystander.
Emile didn't know that other players were making a big deal about him leaving the woods. Even if he did know he would ignore it.
Emile went towards the Market Square which had many NPC's selling different commodities and services. It also had players selling the beginner equipment.
He looked around and found out that no one was selling any equipment that had Night Vision. Emile didn't know that any items with helpful PvE effects would sell for a lot of money. He wouldn't be able to afford the item even if the item was being sold.
Emile arrived next to a Tailor which created items using different types of materials. Before he got to say anything the Tailor started o yell at him.
"How many times do I have to tell you people that I will not craft anything out of feathers," He bellowed.
Emile tried to appease the misunderstanding.
"I'm not here to ask for an item made out feathers, I'm here to ask if you can make something out Boar hide." He quickly replied.
"What?!? You have Boar hide!?!" He yelled in shock.
The people nearby heard the Tailor yell and looked to see what was wrong. They didn't notice anything and went back to doing their own business.
"Come inside," He beckoned for Emile to enter his home.
Emile took the offer and went inside. Inside the Tailor's home was many different types of hid hung up on the wall. There was snake hide, deer hide, and even a boar's hide.

"Didn't you start adventuring about 2 hours ago, If you did then how did you manage to get Boar hide so quickly." He said in a quick tone filled with surprise.
Emile told him how he managed to obtain a ring which gave him lots of power and he used that power to kill some Boars.
"Show me the ring," he said.
Emile showed him the ring and the Tailor had a look of shock.
"Is that ring called the Fighter's Will?" He asked excitedly.
"Yes," he responded.
The Tailor had another look of shock on his face and said: "Follow me, I'm taking you to see the Village Chief."
The Tailor started to walk away in the direction of the biggest home in the village. Emile followed quickly.
After arriving in front of the Village Chief's home the Tailor decided to knock on the door and yell loudly. The house was made out of wood that came from the deepest part of the forest. It was a very beautiful, fitting for a Chief.
Many players were surrounding the Village Chief's home since he would give the best quests. They noticed that another player stood in front of the door with an NPC.
"Here comes another person, who's trying to enter the Chief's home," said River Bull mockingly. His fellow guildmates laughed at Emile for trying.
"Hey kid, you should give up, if we couldn't enter then you won't be able to enter either," he continued with even more confidence.
Emile ignored his words and silently waited for the door to open. The door opened and the Village Chief angrily yelled out: "Could you adventurers stop bothering me."
After saying this he noticed that the Tailor was standing in front of his door and asked: "Why are you here?"
"I found an adventurer who has the Fighter's Will," the Tailor replied excitedly.
"Who?" The Village Chief started to look around the crowd to see if anyone stood out. He ignored Emile who was standing next to the Tailor since he didn't stand out that much.
"The adventurer next to me." He replied.
At this moment the Chief moved out of the door's way and allowed the Tailor and Emile to enter his home.
The players who witnessed this were shocked and some even started to record this. No one had managed to enter Chief's home before. Many have tried and all of them had failed since the Chief would yell at them to leave or he would slam the door on their face.
River Bull felt gobsmacked. He could feel an invisible hand hitting his face. "I will have my revenge," he thought and left the location while holding his grievances in his heart.
There were many decorations inside the Chief's home. He had a chandelier and a fireplace, a beautifully designed sofa, and some paintings hung up on a wall. It gave off a very cozy feeling.
The Chief sat on his sofa and told Emile and the Tailor to sit on the chairs. After they all sat down the Chief immediately asked: "Can you show me the ring?"
Emile promptly put his hand out and allowed the Chief to take a deep look at it.
The Chief had a look of uncertainty. Emile recalled some things from a guide about video games. He remembered that whenever a character had a look of uncertainty the player should ask the question 'Do you need any help?' This question was the easiest way for an NPC to give the player a quest.
Emile decided to try it out.
"Do you need any help?" he asked.
"No I don't need help but I'm debating on whether I should tell you about something or leave you in the dark." He replied.
"Don't leave me in the dark, I want to know what I can do," Emile quickly responded.
"Alright, let me tell you some more things about that ring. That ring is apart of a duo of rings which have been lost since the ancient times," He paused.
"The other half of that duo is known as the Mage's Will which is located in a cave somewhere in the Song Forest. There were documents of someone writing about the location of the ring, alas the documents were destroyed in a fire." He paused again.
"When the two rings are combined with a few other rare items it will form a legendary ring known as the Ring of the Awakened." He ended his speech.

An Average American in A High-school Academy Anime
An American versed in narrative tropes and more than mildly acquainted with anime wakes up in a completely different bed than the one he went to bed in. Now he has to scramble to understand where he is, what's going on, and hope to God he isn't in a relationship drama. I don't expect this to be good or well-received, but I have plenty of time this quarantine, so I'll try to get a chapter of 4000-10000 words out every one or two weeks. (haha) Please let me know how it can be improved. I'm an avid reader of fiction, but I've never really fallen down a rabbit hole so hard that I can name all tropes and settings and such by heart. I'm not sure if this will be effective satire, so I preemptively apologize. Inspired by: "My Life is Not a Manga, or maybe..." by EO Tenkey and "The Simulacrum" by Eganthale. Check them out if you want probably better stories than this one.
