I find myself in a dark, scary place surrounded by skulls and skeletons. The dim light flickers, casting spooky shadows on the cold stone walls. There's a heavy feeling of fear in the air like something terrible has happened here before. It's so quiet that the only sound I hear is my quick heartbeat.
I'm filled with questions as I try to understand where I am. Has death taken me to this dark and hopeless realm? Could this be the afterlife, where lost souls wander forever? Not knowing makes me even more scared and uneasy!
But amid my fear, there's something different about this place. Unlike the pain I endured in the lab, which was constant and unbearable, the agony here is strangely easier to bear. It's like the torment has changed into a more manageable feeling.
Even though it hurts, I realize the pain shows that I'm still alive. It reminds me that I exist. Feeling my heart beating, breathing, and blood flowing through my body makes me feel connected to the world. It helps me understand my own emotions and reminds me that I'm truly alive.
'Where the hell I am?'
All of a sudden, I hear a loud crunching sound in the darkness. It's not caused by me or anything, but by the skull that tried to treat me.
I quickly grab a small object nearby, like a marble, and crush it in my hand. It feels good to destroy, it fuels my determination. Then I saw another skull, a with a fast move, I crushed that one too, feeling a surge of power inside me.
At that moment I realised, something within me had changed after Coming out of that endless empty void
, I realize I have unlocked a hidden power within me. Even though I can't make any sound, a smile spreads across my face, showing my excitement. I know that what I'm about to do is amazing, something I'll remember when I finally succeed.
I can't help but silently laugh, feeling amused by it all. My movements become smoother as I effortlessly move my hand through the skeletons. It's almost like the skeletons themselves are helping me, making it easy for me to grab and control them. and now I was in the article then I umped through the pile of bones, creating a path as I went. The skeletons get stuck, unable to follow me
As I continue through the dangerous swamp, my heart beats faster in my chest. Suddenly, a strange purple light surrounds me. The light makes the scattered bones around me look eerie. Some of my blood mixes with the white and black bones, creating a strange and creepy scene.
P
As the bones fly towards me, I quickly raise my hands to protect myself. The bones hit my hands, but my grip stays strong and keeps me safe. When the attack stops, I stand still among the scattered bones, ready to keep going. Nothing will stop me. With determination, I gather my strength to jump again, ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead in this dangerous swamp.

[Author pov]
In the middle of the ocean, a ship can be seen sailing toward an unidentified island, its destination for unloading. On the ship's dock, Alan and his party stand, with the captain of the ship. Alan gazes at the horizon, lost in thought, while his party members are with a teenage girl who bears a striking resemblance to the captain. The teenage girl has silver hair, green eyes, and pale, glowing skin.
A party member, a man with a bulky and muscular physique, turns towards Martha, the teenage girl. He smiles slightly and asks, "Hey there, what's your name? I'm Joseph Morrow."
The girl hides behind her father, the captain of the ship. Recognizing her fear, Joseph reaches into his bag, which hangs from his waist, and takes out an apple. He holds it out towards her and says, "I will give you this if you tell me your name."
The girl's eyes land on the apple, sparkling a little, and a genuine smile blooms on her face. However, she remains hidden and whispers, "I... I'm... Martha..." Her voice is faint and barely audible, but Joseph and the entire party hear her.
A female party member steps forward towards Martha. She is wearing a white dress like a priestess and has a mature, wise-looking face with yellow eyes. Introducing herself as Rosanna Merry, she declares, "I am a priestess." With a snap of her fingers, she spells,
["FLOWER." ]
Glowing, white flowers come into existence with her simple gesture. They hover in the air and surround Martha, forming a crown atop her head.
Martha unconsciously reaches out to touch the crown, but the flowers quickly dissipate, disappearing from existence. A hint of sadness appears on her face. Sensing this, Rosanna reassures her, "Ah, don't worry, I can do it again. But first, you must answer our questions." She gently pets Martha's head, unknowingly closing the distance between them.
Pointing towards another member of the party, Rosanna introduces Martha to Naryona aka Naro, who is an alchemist. She had, a small figure like a teenage girl with goggles on her eyes and green hair, she shyly waved her hand towards Martha.
Rosanna then directs Martha's attention towards a male figure with a gloomy look. This man has scars on his cheeks and a battle mark on his exposed chest, giving off a strong warrior aura. Despite his appearance, he offers Martha a smile and is introduced as Arthur Boose, a warrior.
Rosanna leans closer to Martha's ear and whispers, "Arthur doesn't know much about the geography of the Earth. We have to teach him. You will help me, right?"
To that, Martha nodded her head and answer

[Onver POV]
I stand at the edge of a treacherous swamp, ready to take another daring leap into the abyss of skeletal. With a determined bend of my waist, I propel myself into the air, defying gravity as I soar above the sea of haunting skeletons.
The gaping mouths of these bony adversaries latch onto me, only to be torn apart by the sheer force of my movement. Droplets of my blood splatter and accumulate on the weathered bones,
With my both hands crossed and cutting through the swarm of skeletons in front of me, I effortlessly cleave them in two, each part disintegrating with a resounding boom.
BOom: -
I escape from the clutches of the skeletal swarm, emerging from the depths of the swamp, the purple hue surrounds me, a vivid testament to my overwhelming power. However, remnants of the skeleton's grasp still cling to my body,
Like a rocket piercing through the clouds, I burst forth into the open, my presence marked by a symphony of echoing bones.
Crash
As I gaze upon the mountain of skeletons that materializes before me, countless open-mouthed skulls glow with the same captivating purple hue. The trails of my blood fall onto their skeletal forms, adding a haunting and macabre beauty to the scene.
A horde of skeletons rushes towards the skeletal mountain, an uncountable number stretching beyond the limits of my sight. Surrounded by this spectral army, I am the epicentre of a thrilling battle, where chaos melds with artistry, and the clash of bones resonates in harmony with the pulsating energy that surges through my veins.
A smile blossomed on my face.
'They are mere skeletons .'
Again I jump in the air appearing a meter above the skeleton swamp and I leap toward the mountains of the skeleton.
