《Player of Trials》Another Trial
Advertisement
"Ugh, my head," I said as I rubbed my head. Leveling up is really painful. I feel like I have a hangover. I wonder if every time I level up is going to hurt me this much. Well, I can't know before trying it.
"Looking at the same still white world. Really boring," I murmured.
But now I realize I feel stronger than yesterday. Touching my stomach, I can feel new muscles. Putting those attribute points to strength really pays off. However, I can't just touch my belly all day.
By wrapping the piece of clothing left from the goblin around my waist, I take out my rusted sword from inventory. Now I am ready for a new trial!
[DO PLAYER WANT TO GO TO THE NEXT TRIAL?]
"Yes"
Pressing the yes button this time, I observe my surroundings. Even though this is my second time experiencing this, it still amazes me. I mean, what kind of technology is this? Or should I say magic? However, it seems, it is gaining a forest looking like before.
"I should focus on the new trial," I said to myself, pulling myself together.
At the end of transformation, this time, three light forms are shaped. Ah yes, goblins again. How many times am I going to kill them?
As soon as they gained their shape, I made the first move and started running towards them. As the saying goes, "Strike first, strike hard." With my full speed, I appeared in front of them. Giving my power to my arms, I blow my strike on the goblins' head before they gain their consciousness. While my sword crushes his head, blood splashes in the air.
"One gone, two left"
Looking back I see the other two gained their consciousness. The one on the left has a spear and the other one has a sword in his hand. As I prepare myself, they come to me. First the spear wielder reaches me. After dodging his attacks, I hold his spear from its body and pull it to myself. Because of my overwhelming power, he can do nothing but let it go. With a kick, I sent him back. While I fight with a goblin, the other one attacks me, taking advantage of my carelessness. I can't dodge it with my sword in time. It cuts my left arm. I take a few steps back. Luckily, it is not too deep, but still hurts.

To take my revenge. I run to him, close enough I jump and swing my sword. From the strength difference, he can't hold his sword against me and drops it. As soon as he dropped the sword, I cut his throat, and went to kill the other one. As I took the other one's weapon earlier, he couldn't resist my attacks even for one minute.
[TRİAL 2 HAS BEEN COMPLETED]
[YOU'VE GAINED 60 EXP] [LEVEL 2>3]
[+5 ATTRIBUTE POINTS]
[+1 SKILL POINTS]
"It was really worth the effort," I coughed while holding my left arm.
Afterwards, the surrounding area turned into its previous white world state. My body got covered by a sudden light. It felt warm, not like burning, but rather like being in your mother's womb. After the light disappeared, the wound on my left arm was gone and all my tiredness was gone with it too.
"So after trials, my wound will be healed. Good to know."

Hmm, too bad I can't afford any of them, all of them need at least 5 skill points. I'll have to save up some points if I want to buy. And the only way to do that is completing trials to get stronger.
"I can't even die here, nothing to lose. But if I am here for these trials, I will eventually pass them. I am literally immortal. So what is the meaning of completing trials? To test someone's skills? No, if it was the matter, rather someone who is much better at fighting than me would be summoned here. Then what is the point of it? I don't know, and it seems so if I don't keep moving forward, I won't know. All I can do now is complete these quests."
[DO PLAYER WANT TO GO TO THE NEXT TRIAL?]
"Yes," Leon says with a determined look.

Fearful even of their allies, the Orellens come up with an extraordinary and deadly scheme to protect themselves. If the most powerful sorcerers in the world wish to kill the ninth-born, they will have to find him or her first. And that's not going to be easy when the Orellens have called upon dark magic to create hundreds of heirs. The boys and girls are given new bodies, new names, and even new magical talents before they are scattered across the continent. Only one among them is the real ninth, but all of them will have to grow up in a world where they are fugitives. Kalen, once fated to die, is now an Orellen heir in hiding. And he is determined to survive, even if he has to master his strange new powers to do it. The Last Orellen is a long, character-focused progression fantasy set in a vast universe about a boy's journey to become a powerful mage. Reviews are deeply appreciated. Please do not repost my work elsewhere without my written permission. What type of reader is this book for? You might enjoy The Last Orellen if you like... Clever and resourceful protagonists. Big fantasy worlds. Multiple cultures, lots of characters, many different types of magic--this story is expansive rather than closely focused on a narrow storyline. Progression fantasy that takes its time. Our main character will be progressing through magical ranks, but this is going to be a lengthy story. If you're more about the journey than the destination, this might be the book for you. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

In the boundless multiverse, all possibilities, no matter how remote, exist somewhere. Universes are born, or are created, and die, or do not. In the vast Myriad Heavens Cosmos, a reality far away from our own, a mysterious energy called Mana provides the basis for both physical techniques and magical techniques, and interweaves and is part of all matter, all spirits, and all energy.

There are many such paths, known as Dao, but they all feature Shards! When a being, man, beast, or otherwise, gains a large enough Mana sea in their body, a crystal core, known as a shard,containing the essence of their power, the ideals and emotions that motivate them, and the essence of their soul will form. A beast which cultivates to the level of forming a shard is called a Magical Beast. A human or other being that does is known as a Mystic. A shard may be a Mage Shard, allowing one to use mana to attack with the elements and produce fantastical, reality bending spells. A shard may also be a Warrior shard, channeling elemental and mana power into one’s physical form, shaped into projectiles, or various other uses; or it can be a Immortal Shard, with the abilities of a Warrior and Mage shard both, and others besides. Anyone who forms an Immortal Shard has the potential to shock the vast planes of reality! In the eternal struggle between the living, who will gain advantage, and for how long? Who will live and who will die? Who will protect and guide the commoners, and fight rogue Mystics and Beasts? Into this world, a child with a potential beyond his wildest imaginations is born. But on the journey of cultivation, there are no guarantees! Will he reach his fated glory, or will he die an ignoble death?
