《Branch Adventurers Guild [Dropped]》Trial of Monsters
Advertisement
Waking up, I felt pain covering each part of my body, trying to push my body to sit up, I fail due to the pressure keeping me down. Opening my eyes, I began to examine what is around me and due to the limited amount, all I see is a black ceiling and most of it was covered with moss and some type of unknown tree vines.
"Is someone here?" I said with my weak voice yet I heard nothing back and decided to ask one more time "Hello? Is someone here? Answer me"
No sound, No wind, nothing.
Turning my body around, I began to crawl slowly as I struggled very hard to see a corridor. Pushing myself hard, I kept crawling, I didn't know why my entire body was weak but I noticed that my arms were still in that previous form.
Slowly, my power was returning and for some reason, I felt like I had to reach the end so I pushed my body even harder ignoring the pain and stood up to walk. One thing I realized, there was no light within the corridor yet I can see it as clear as it was daylight inside.
Crack, Crack, Crack.
Looking down I was wearing nothing and my legs were creating cracks on the ground, I saw that my body was recovering fast and I began to walk faster as the pressure on me lessened.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
My body began to adapt to everything, light began to appear by the end of the passage yet no matter how much I kept walking it wasn't close so I began to run faster than I have ever ran before.
Swish!
I saw the corridor disappear and a very large room big enough that I can't see its end yet I can see the ceiling on top of it. I stopped running and stood where I was before turning back to look.
"?!" My shocked face couldn't describe how I was feeling because the corridor disappeared and all I saw was an old man standing next to the wall with reverence.

Taking a step back while facing him, I kept looking at him for a long time, not a word escaped my mouth as I was trying to prepare myself for anything unexpected.
"Are you done?" The old man said as he stroked his long white beard and smirked.
"Where am I?" I said while positioning myself in a defensive stance.
"You are not qualified to know, I don't have much time to waste on newcomers so I will be explaining fast what you need to do." The old man looked at me with disdain as he began to explain what happens here.
"First, you will be sent to fight against many, the numbers depends on how long you can stay alive… its infinite which means either you have built your foundations well or you will just become another trash" The old man said with a laugh.
He continues "Second, once the exam finishes you will be sent to the strategic center if you are a leader, Battle center if you are a soldier, Tras- *cough* Crafter or Gatherer Center… that is if you are weak"
I smirked at his last words because I know this man hasn't seen what I can do yet but I erased it fast before he can notice.
"Finally, after all that is complete, you will have to choose your role and work hard to improve on them before coming back here again" Concluding his words the old man waves his hands and sends me to the middle of nowhere.
"Sigh, how hateful" I shake my head and began to observe my surroundings, noticing the sand under my feet, I nodded and closed my eyes.
'Open Book'
Nothing happened, seems like I will have to rely at myself. "Asura?" I asked and no sound was returned after the question.
'Sigh'
Opening my eyes fiercely, I clenched my fists and took the sly tiger stance. Slowly the sand surrounding me began to form into a specific monster.

Inspecting the monsters, I smiled "Goblins", Without waiting I move my body and launch an assault towards the goblin without putting any pressure in my punch.
My fists extends beyond my expectations tearing the goblin as the fists opens up a bit leading to the claws coming out of my nails to stab inwardly and tear up the goblin leading up to the goblin that formed behind it.
"That was awesome" For some reason I felt great pleasure in this so I continued to fight with different styles, some low kicks, some high kicks, some low punch, left and right punch.
Time went by and without noticing I began to move further and further from the mainspot I was at. The land behind me was littered with goblins of all kinds, some big ones too but I really didn't care that much, I was actually enjoying my time!
------------
"My god… I didn't tell him he can finish this after killing at least 10" The old man face was pale as he was watching the entire fight. Next to him was an old lady that was holding a stick ready to use it on this old man.
"Husband, what did I tell you about explaining the rules? Seems like I haven't taught you well for the past century" The old lady smiled while saying this to the old man and light hitting the stick on her hand to prepare it for something.
"Uhm, He will know…" the old man said as he looked at the numbers which kept changing every second displayed below the glass ball floating.
[Goblins Killed: 32,875]
[Stage 5]
---------------
Looking at the giant hanging bellow I tore the goblin skin off and began to tailor it with the bones made into a sharp object, slowly I began to connect everything together and finally got something to cov-
Plak-
I club has stabbed my bottom, luckily only the outer zone.
Waving my hands back I destroyed the goblin and wore the skirt fast. Taking the goblin club I was very angry and began to use a weapon for the first time since I became an adventurer (other than the pistols of course hahaha).
Crash Crash Crash!
Body parts began to fly away.
"Hahahahaha!"
--------------
"Scary…" Observer A said while fixing up his buttons on his shirt.
"Elder Troll huh… Haven't seen one in a long time" Observer B smiled as he was playing around with his bat.
"... James will be tortured today by his wife hahaha!" Observer C anxiously said while looking slowly behind him at the old man who was being beaten up
"Hel...Ugh, Ahh!" The old man screamed as he was being beaten up by his wife. "I dare you to scream!" The old lady said as she kept hitting the old man and crushing the ground under him from the force of the hit.
"Ahhhh!" The old man screamed and then placed both his hands on his mouth, "I double dare you" The old lady looked like a devil at this moment.
[Goblins Killed:99998….99999]
[Stage 10]
[Completed]
[New record created]
-------------
"Hmm, where are they?" I said while trying hard to eat some meat which tasted amazing for some reason, sadly the horns coming out of my mouth were poking my eyes everytime I ate without care.
A large ball appeared in the sky and a few words were written on it.
[You have completed Stage 10 of Goblins, prepare to be sent to the second race!]
"That old man lied! He said it was only 1 stage!" I said as I fiercely ate the meat before poking my eyes again.
"Damn it!" I threw the leftover away in anger.

God complex
A hero is summoned to another world, vanquishes evil, yadda yadda, saves the kingdom and lives happily ever after. There is no such hero in this story. Just a desperate youth with great ambition and very little to lose. A zero to hero style story set in a country clearly inspired by modern USA with just as many issues and the minority of mages often pulling strings from the shadows. I am also hoping the whole thing won't turn out edgy enough to cut me. I want to rely on actual good writing rather than cheap powertrip gimmicks. edit: Please don't mind Zetari's salty review. He is quite literally making up any use of the torture and human experimentation trope and says MC is blank after 4 chapters where he conveniently stops reading just at the start of his first character development. For extra entertainment, I will be uploading chapters two at a time and compose a relevant poem through the chapter names. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
