Time had flown swiftly in this enigmatic world, and Koti now found himself at the age of four. Gone were the days of stumbling steps and tentative movements; he had grown into a young warrior full of vigor and determination. His body, honed by tireless training, possessed a newfound agility and strength.
Thor, the wolf who had become Koti's steadfast companion, observed his young charge with a watchful eye. Most of the time, Thor sat in silent contemplation, ever vigilant as Koti pushed his limits, honing his skills amidst the serene forest backdrop. Koti's relentless drive to become stronger intrigued the wolf, and a bond formed between them that transcended mere guardianship. In Koti's eyes, Thor had become more than just a companion; he was now a trusted ally and friend.
On one particular day, Koti engaged in a training ritual reminiscent of the "Iron Fist" exercises he had practiced in his previous world. He struck the towering trees with precision and determination, channeling his inner strength. As he relentlessly pummeled the trunk, a strange message materialized before him, defying the laws of physics.
(Name: Koti Level = 2 Strength: 8.9 Durability: 21 Speed: 4 Extra Skills: None)
Koti's eyes widened in astonishment. It was as if the very fabric of reality had been twisted, blending his memories of RPG games with the world in which he now lived. For a moment, he questioned his sanity, blinking in hopes of dispelling the surreal revelation. But the message remained, urging him to accept the truth of his new existence.
With a mixture of wonder and determination, Koti clicked on the
Koti's mind raced as he processed the possibilities. "So, my stats are not merely a result of my natural abilities but can be honed through deliberate training and combat," he murmured to himself. The realization filled him with excitement and newfound determination.
Without wasting a moment, Koti dropped to the forest floor and began a set of push-ups. As his young muscles strained, he marveled at the ease with which his strength grew. However, due to his tender age, he could only manage a modest seven push-ups in ten minutes. Nonetheless, he felt a surge of satisfaction, knowing that with time and dedication, his progress would be exponential.
As the day wore on, Koti continued to challenge himself, relentlessly pushing his limits. His body grew stronger, his movements more fluid and precise. His desire to harness every ounce of his potential burned within him, propelling him to greatness.
In the midst of his training, Koti paused to stroke Thor's sleek silver fur. The wolf, previously asleep, awoke and met Koti's gaze with adoration. The bond between them had grown stronger, and Thor had become more than just a protector. Koti bestowed the name "Thor" upon the wolf, a fitting title for the guardian who guided him through this mystifying world.
As the sun began to set, the forest came alive with rustling sounds. The encro
aching darkness carried a sense of foreboding, alerting Koti to the imminent danger lurking nearby. He contemplated leading Thor to the cave he had discovered months ago, a sanctuary from the unknown. But a different idea sparked within him—a desire to face the challenges head-on.
The bush rustled violently, and the night grew thick with tension. Without hesitation, a bear burst forth, its massive form charging towards Koti. Thor, ever vigilant, assumed a combat stance, prepared to leap into action. However, Koti intervened, placing his hands protectively in front of Thor's face.
"Leave this one to me," Koti spoke softly, giving Thor a reassuring smile. In that moment, he felt an inexplicable surge of confidence and strength.
The bear lunged, jaws snapping with furious intent. Koti, displaying reflexes beyond his years, evaded the beast's bite by leaping onto its massive head. His gaze swept the surroundings, and a falling stick caught his attention—a weapon that nature itself had provided.
With lightning speed and unwavering determination, Koti thrust the stick into the bear's skull. The creature fell lifeless, its dark blood staining Koti's face as a testament to his victory.
Exhausted but exhilarated, Koti collapsed onto the ground, his small frame heaving with exertion. The thrill of battle coursed through his veins, mingling with a sense of accomplishment that surpassed his tender age. In that moment, Koti knew that his journey in this extraordinary world was far from over. The challenges ahead would test his resilience, his strength, and his unwavering spirit.
