《Eclipse Online》Chapter 3
Advertisement
A flash of light blinded me before I got sent to a simple desk that had a sword, bow, staff. Ariel appeared next to the counter with a gentle smile.
"In this room, you can do anything you like without having to worry about dying, mana, or physical exhaustion."
"so I get to train?" I asked her
"Yes," Ariel responded.
"Can I spend however much time I want here?"
"Yes?" she responds with a questioning tone
I had read my fair share of litrpg and thought of an idea, but I sure it wouldn't work, would it? I got down on the ground and started doing a set of 10 pushups before changing my position to plank. I repeated this for ten to fifteen min before I receive the message I wanted to see,
STR +1
"holy shit, it works" I said to myself
I kept going with my training for two hours straight rotating what I was doing to increase my overall stats.
STR +8 VIT+6 AGI+9 DEX+10
I felt amazing as I the new power surge through my body. I used to read this and think that it exploited that probably would have been handled, but the fact it didn't just amaze me.
"Status," I said
Status Window
Name Zero Level 1 Gender Male Class - Race Human Profession - Titles - Health 160/160 Health Regen 5.5/min Mana 50/50 Mana Regen 5/min Stamina 240/240 Stamina Regen 15/min --- Strength 19 Vitality 16 Agility 24 Dexterity 26 Intelligence 6 Wisdom 5 Luck 9
I couldn't help but smile while looking at my stats, they were to that for a level five. luck probably wouldn't be affected by any training that I know of, but I need a way to raise intelligence and wisdom. Letting it go, for now, I went over to the desk with the weapons before grabbing the sword.

"Hey, can I get a practice dummy?" I asked Ariel
"Huh? Oh yeah sure, here" Ariel said after been dazed off for so long.
A practice dummy appeared, and I went to stand in front of the dummy. I swung the sword and hit the inanimate object, recoiling from the holding the sword wrong. I readjusted my grip and went forward with my strikes at the dummy for half an hour until something broke my concentration.
New Skill Obtained
Sword Mastery (Novice) Level 1
Description: Increases damage and proficiency with Swords (1-handed only)
STR+3
I gawked in happiness over the new skill and stats decided to move on to the next weapon the bow and once again got with shooting at the dummy. I missed every shot for the first ten minutes before I finally hit it. I was glad and was able to keep hitting the dummy every three-shot until I was able to get it down to hit it every time, not anywhere deadly, but still hitting.
New Skill Obtained
Bow Mastery (Novice) Level 1
Description: Increases damage with Bows
DEX+2
I repeated the process with the magic staff, but instead of receiving a magic spell magic stat boost, I received nothing.
"Okay Ariel, I think I'm done," I told her
Ariel had long ago fallen asleep and was laying her head down against a desk snoring. I walked over to her and poked her forehead a few times until she reacted.
"No mom, I don't want food," She said quickly getting up quickly
She looked around before finally remember what she was doing
"oh you're finally done? good, cause I'm tired of having you here" She said looking annoyed "I will now send you to the starting point"
With another flash, I was teleported to the middle of a city which I happened to read online was the capital, Selene city.

Flashback: Siren Song
The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter. This story isn't a full length novel--its a novella length work (25K words), and is part of my Yancy Lazarus series. Its already free on Amazon, so I thought I'd post chapters here for the good folks of Royal Road. If you don't want to wait for updates or would prefer to read it on Kindle, you can pick it up for free here: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B01066TLC0
