It's been a few days since I enter the portal. I was astonished at first after seeing the beautiful surrounding. The flower-like gorgeous green forest and the beautiful clear blue sky of the "Paradise Valley". It is said to be the most wonderful land on the continent, but also one of the most dangerous places. This Valley contains lots of precious herbs, stones, treasures, ancient weapons, and others that are useful for the growth of body and power.
"It's been so long time I have visited such a beautiful place. Ah," I take a deep breath and continue my journey after a five-minute break.
"I should find someplace to rest and check my data in a microchip. Also, I need to find some safe place to train myself before getting dark. The more beautiful is this place in the day, It's the most frightening place at night," I continue on my walk until I realize I was deep inside the forest.
"Hmm, why is the ground shaking?" I stopped in the middle of the way to verify it and I saw the herd of wild elephants is rushing toward my way at a speed.
"WHAT THE…..? I can't fight with that thing with my current condition. I better run away, or I will get killed," I start running as fast I can, but the wild elephants didn't stop chasing me.
"AHH HH, what's the problem with you dude? Why you guys keep chasing me," I keep screaming looking at the herd of wild elephants and run almighty I can. After a long hour of running away from the herd of elephants, I find myself in the deepest part of the forest. It was nearly the end of the forest. I rest my body near the tree to hold up myself, my breathing was unstable, and it was being hard for me to move any further step. I lay down on long green grass, resting for a while, and my sights saw a small cave at the corner of the woods. Furthermore, I took a deep breath and walk toward the cave moving slowly.
"Well, it doesn't look like any animals or creature home. Looking at its state, this place has been forgotten for long decades. This might be a good place to hide out for some days," I cut down the tangles of thin trunks. I step inside the cave, continue my slow step walk. While I was walking inside the cave, tiny stones were all glowing. It wasn't in a good shape, and it was crimson in pigment. I dig out some of them and put them on my space ring. After a few minutes of walk, I can see a light coming from the deep of the cave. I rashly run over there, and it was a big surprise for me.
"Wow, this was the only word that came from my lip after seeing it. The view was more delightful than the outer side. The diamond-like shining pond, showing thin mist around it. I also can breathe in the scent of herbs. And above the surrounding, there were lots of crystals and stones glowing. I take a good look at those crystals.
"Did I hit jackpots after getting chased by a group of mad wild elephants? They are rare crystals.," I dig one crystal, and it was midnight blue pigment. The midnight blue pigment forms after being under the moonlight for thousands of years. It has great properties to increase a person's magic ability into A++, but it cannot be consumed that easily. It has to take according to the level of Star.
" I should dig every crystal and store it in my space ring. It will be of great help for me in the future, I can't leave this precious crystal. Haha…," I started digging every midnight blue pigment. In the process of digging, I find a rarer crystal than it.
"Hahaha, this is for real? It's a scarlet gem," I dug everything I can find and put it in my space ring. The scarlet gems are also the A++ creation but unlike Midnight blue crystal it can be used by any level star person to increase the strength. The strength will increase according to the body type of the person.
"Finally, I finished transforming them all in my space ring. Phew, that was lots of work. Now, shall I take a good shower at this magnificent lake, enjoying the most relaxed time I ever had in my life," I removed down my clothes, putting them on the side of the lake bed. I stepped down inside the lake, dipping my whole body into its warm water.
I start feeling the aches, pain, and stabbing with the knife all over my bare skin. Not only that, but I also can feel the changes in my body circumstances, from inside and outside. The pain continues to increase and also the condition of my body increase in a proper direction. The more time I spend inside this water, I can sense more the purification of my blood flowing through every corner of my nerve system.
"How about I add these white petals herbs on water, though I don't know what this herb works on. Since it has grown wildly in the side of the lake bed, it must be some useful. It might help a little to increase my energy.," I take a gamble into knowing it's having risk, I pulled out the white petal herb with its root as much as I could and put it in the lake with the four-scarlet gem.
My body flinched more than it was, and the pain increased by triple. I can feel like my whole body has been stabbed with countless needless, piercings through my bones and my muscles can be ripped into pieces at any moment. The temperature of my body rapidly rises into hot and reduces into the cold.
"Sheesh, this body is fragile," I maintain my posture and close my eye to concentrate on the inner of my body. I can view the new energy flowing all over my body and purified blood fluid on my nerves. Also, there was a fresh circle of fire and water being disorderly with each other on my abdomen. I take all my focus on the abdomen, controlling the balance between fire and water. After being the cooperated of fire and water balance, the pain, and t*****e in my body is slowly reduced and the temperature of my body went stable. I moved the balanced circle of fire and water slowly into my heart, creating it an origin of my internal energy.
BEEP BEEP
You have reached level 2 star, S2.
Please check the growth of your body.
I opened my eye after hearing the wristband tone. "Hmm" I check my data and my body condition, star level has improved at double speed. Not only did my star increased from 1star to 2star, but also the level of start has reached S2. Along with the stars, they are also level into five categories S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5. It takes many years just to pass over these levels.
"Looks like my strength has grown more than other things," I smiled while looking at the thin screen floating in the air.
Registered Number:- 0000236
Strength:- B to A+
Power. :- B- to A+
Magic. :- C- to C
"It's good that my strength, power, and magic have grown more than expected in short days. I still have a long way to grow stronger," I sighed and walk out of the lake. I touched my body and the muscles around the whole part and abs seem to tighten more than before. Also, I sense my body feeling more light than usual, and the energy is running inside in a wild over my body.
"Let me test," I punched over one of the walls at the corner, and it made a huge hole. "....woo...", I was stunned by it.
"Having this kind of power by the ordinary person is super cool," I changed my dress and picked everything I can in the surrounding. Then I put everything on my space ring.
"The rest is over now I should move on my journey, and train harder" I smiled and walked into the hole made by myself.
