Shogi Looked at the menu and didn't know what saying yes would accomplish. Saying no was even less appealing so he made a decision to give it a chance. Shogi sighed and said "yes". Ping chimed the system. Would you like to see your options Yes/No "yes" shogi said. A list of blocked off content showed itself with only one option being available which was a World known as terrace. Shogi sighed "is this place like earth" the system began to show a brief map of the world the system gave an overview of the known world "Terrace is similar to what Earthlings would call an rpg except it is real life and what you call experience points is called essence which is the energy released upon death. Every living being can gain strength from essence. Unlike earth, Terrace is populated with many humanoid creatures." Shogi thought about this and said "im ready" The system asked "what time would you like to return to this world upon completion" Shogi responded "6:00am".
Shogi felt a jolting sensation as his soul was torn violently from his body and he became terrified as he slid through a portal screaming until he noticed that everything was really bright but every word he spoke sounded like gibberish. As the light became less intense he noticed everyone around him had pointed ears and were beautiful beyond belief. Shogi felt himself rising as a man picked him up and ran out the room towards the edge of the cliff and lifted him up. He heard the man say a couple of words he couldn't understand then something incredible happened what looked like a sea of people was below the hill and a large light was amassing overhead then the man sent his hand toward Shogi at which point he was filled with essence ping level up,level up,level up, congratulations host you are now lvl 7 stats are as follows 18 strength 18 stamina 18 agility 18 vitality 18 dexterity 93 mana. Skills System Lvl 1 Reincarnation Lvl 1. Spirit Talker Max Lvl Nature Magic Lvl 1. Blessing Verus Deus
Shogi expressed his shock at leveling up and asked the system "is there a limit to how much I can level up and the system replied "Yes, the host max level is 100". Shogi couldn't help but be shocked at this revelation. Hearing that he could level up was one thing but actually experiencing it is another. Shogi then asked the system to pull up the display screen and asked "what is the blessing Verus Deus". The System replied "This is a blessing that is always active but the contents of this blessing is locked to the host". Shogi feeling frustrated wanted to know more but was curious about other things that had caught his attention. "What is Nature Magic" shogi asked curiously. The system replied "this is the ability to restore and manipulate plants and restore nature". Shogi laughed and sighed thinking to himself well I guess this means I am a tree hugger now. The System interjected " The host is not a tree hugger no such life form has been detected the host is an Elf" Shogi gasped at this fact and couldn't believe the systems words.
Reincarnation is one thing but to change from being human to not being human was going to be tough as he had nothing in common with elves. He played plenty of video games so he had an idea of what they were like. The other part of him couldn't accept it but reality was not going to wait on him to get a grasp as he felt a jarring sensation and the world was spinning as the man that held on to him spun to his back to protect Shogi from the damage. After sliding for awhile he blasted himself off the ground and yelled " Airgate" this created air that enveloped him. As he handed Shogi to a lady and ran off. She yelled "Sylvar be sure to come home" and at that moment Sylvar did not look back as he muttered "Lyra.." only loud enough for him to hear "May the light be our guide" as he leaped in the air and yelled "Thunder smite" the clouds grew dark as a bolt shot in 8 locations until a groan was heard. Sylvar was so fast it was like he was blinking from location to location as his sword struck down multiple people. The last of the enemies became clear. It was a small group of about 10 hooded men but they emitted an aura different then the others.
The intruders were met with a volley of arrows but they blocked with a water barrier. The men then faced each direction and threw a stone far and wide in every direction in which a dome was erected. Sylvar noticed the wind surrounding him die down as he yelled at the other elven warriors " Get back they canceled our magic. Edrese , Azariah and Killgore we should be enough for this lot". The moment his sentence finished 3 figures appeared at his side out of nowhere. This was enough to make the intruders flinch but the leader of the group of intruders just lifted his hand up as if to say silence then turned his hand into a fist. The group led by Sylvar took the initiative in the clash slashing down 4 intruders immediately The leader of the intruders did a hand gesture and said "Adagio" Sylvar and his men got noticeably slower at this point Sylvar yelled " Volley" a hail of arrows rained down on the intruders with accuracy missing Sylvar's men. The arrows struck down one more person at this point only 5 of the original intruders remain. The leader of the Intruders then did a hand gesture and said "allegro" at this point the intruders began to push back attacking faster and wounds begin to pile up on Sylvars side until one member of the party fell into a disadvantageous situation where two intruders were slashing at Killgore until he stumbled on the ground at this moment Sylvar threw his sword in their direction pinning one intruders footdown. The enemy in front of Sylvar attempted to slash at him seeing this as an opening but got parried with a dagger that Sylvar pulled from his hip and slammed the intruder while disarming the enemy.
Sylvar then threw his dagger in the direction of the other opponent targeting Killgore but right as the dagger pierced his skull the enemy struck his sword into Killgore. Sylvar shocked that he was to late as he watched Killgore's body go limp with the enemy intruders body hitting the ground at the same time. When suddenly a sword went through Sylver's back as the enemy leader whispers " Always be alert isn't that what you taught me " the enemies smirk turned into a face of surprise the enemy spit blood all over Sylvers face as Sylver replied "You let your guard down" as the sword he disarmed earlier was pierced through the center of the intruder's stomach. The leader of the invaders leaped back and yelled retreat as he cracked a black orb with a blood red glow and the bodies of the men who fell in battle disappeared.
Sylvar yelled " Give me a detailed surveillance of the.." Sylver fell unconscious causing the elves that were hidden to dart forward Lyra placed her hands on him and tried to heal him with Shogi in one hand. Shogi watched as the wound began to close fast to the visible eye. Some men picked him up and carried him off. Lyra was crying and holding Shogi tight as Shogi replayed the battle over and over again in his head. The movements of Sylvar can only be called graceful, not to mention the accuracy of the elves to shoot at an enemy with their own people right there. He could only imagine what level these warriors were at. The leader of the invaders was able to slow people down and even increase the speed of his own forces. Magic is something else. While Shogi was lost in thoughts he could see a light flying in his direction. The Light spoke to Shogi and said I don't know how but I can tell that you can see, hear and understand me. Shogi said " I can" The Elven spirit said "I have perished performing my duties and my last duty can finally be completed Lyser has betrayed us and Allied with the humans of the North. My weary soul can rest now" Shogi said " Wait whats your name" the spirit smiled " Oros. young one you will be a fine elven warrior you are loved by mana." the soul disappears.
