Inside a white room that was as bright as an office, stood 2 men sorting through documents.
"The tower of Immortality."
"Yes?"
"Have you checked up on it."
"It has just started."
"I..."
The man paused in fear and hesitation.
"**** just relax, there are always ways to kill an immortal."
"I know but still, how could he even be allowed to participate."
"It's fair game, all the Gods agreed to it."
"Well all I could say is that it is bullshit."
"I will agree with you but what can we do. It's been done, we can't change it."
"Oh I found it."
"What?"
"The tower plan of the immortality tower."
"Oh... Let me see."
The man came close to the other.
"An impossible tutorial, well that's fair game I would say."
"Wait, really a mutated giant at the tutorial? **** must be insane."
"They are all immortal, if I had gotten the job to be an administrator I would have done the same."
"I wonder what will happen if someone actually kills a mutated giant before even reaching the 10th floor."
"Well only one thing, they must be insanely insane."
"Ahahahaha."
***
In the middle of the air stood the administrator of the tutorial and floor 1.
He was looking below at the ground as he watched the humans die for 87 days straight.
Time flows slowly for people like him, but his peaceful life was disturbed by a call from hus superiors.
"Reports on the tutorial?"
The man lowered his head and looked at his wrist.
"Good afternoon sir! It has been 87 days since the start."
"Has anyone cleared it?"
"Of course not sir, there is no one who could ever possibly do that."
[A Mutated Giant Has Died]
A sentence was sent to the man's head alerting that a mutated giant has died and in that sense.
"Sir... I think someone did it."
The man hurried to the location leaving the video call with his superior left hanging in the middle of the air.
"At least end the call ****. Well that will be an interesting report. This is why I said, he should have never been allowed to participate."
And so the administrator went to check on who cleared the tutorial.
65 days ago.
"And so this bone is just useless as its own. That's why we have this acid pool to shape it to be sharp."
Yuri listened to what the man said. He started looking and trying to read the description his naked body was exposing.
To him, the man looked quite handsome not in the young man area but on the old men, mid 40's area.
He looked good but at the same time he also looked a little old.
"Ok..."
"So now follow what i'll do Yuri."
"Ok."
The man dipped the edge of the bone to form a spiked top.
Yuri followed what the man did but he failed to successfully do what the man's bone exactly looked like.
And so instead of just restarting with the bone even if some length is lost, the man took the bone from yuri and just dropped it to the acid pool.
"Now go take another bone from yourself."
"What!"
The man being old wasn't the only thing he was able to pick up.
"If not, i'll do it myself. You know boy, you gotta know how to inflict damage to yourself."
He also learned he was just completely deranged. Or maybe it was normal and he has been isolated for too long.
But that didn't matter at the moment as the man was about to just pull Yuri's arm out once more.
"I'll do it! I'll do it."
He already felt a lot of pain. He knew he couldn't do it.
"But I don't have enough strength."
The man looked disappointed at the guy and ripped his own arm once more.
The man dropped his sharpened bone and Yuri was just sad as he could have just used that.
"Now go break my bone in half."
"What?"
"Just do it."
And so Yuri did it.
"The bone ain't that hard."
The man said as Yuri just got frightened.
"Come on Yuri, you have pelt so much pain just being in this stomach. Pulling your arm out is nothing."
"Fine!"
Yuri inhaled deeply. He relaxed and grabbed his arm. He then pulled it out as fast as he could.
And to his surprise it didn't hurt that much.
"See... I told you it's ok."
"Yeah..."
"Now go shape your bone."
As Yuri did that, the man just talked about random things.
"Yuri, you're immortal now. And as an immortal, pain should be your bitch. Throw it out after using it. It's just not worth it."
Yuri failed once more due to the shock of what he just heard. It was that harsh but the man really just had no restriction.
"You failed, pull another bone out."
"Bu-"
"..."
This time the man just stared at him and Yuri understood. There was little pain to begin with, there was nothing to be scared of.
So Yuri kept pulling bones out and kept shaping them many times as the man just kept on talking.
"Did you know I lost my memory."
"Man I so wanna know what happens if I try to get used to drinking this acid."
"Aghhhhh!!! I regret it!"
"So how was your love life kid?"
"Any parents?"
"Oh seems like a sensitive part, sorry man."
"How did you get in here?"
"Oh unlucky dud, I just went here on my own."
"Well isn't that fun."
"Congratulations."
Yuri finally got his own sharp bone and he could finally proceed and stop pulling his own arm off like he had a personal problem with himself.
"So now that you have that."
The man pulled out his arm and quickly made a sharp bone.
"So for the next step it will be easy. Just start by marking a part of the stomach."
"How? The bone ain't sharp enough."
"That's why we need a mark."
"What mark?"
"Well you know what I'm too lazy for that, just start piercing the same spot. If your bone breaks remember the spot."
"What?"
And so that was the hellish life of the two for the next couple of days.
It took them a very long time and on the first few days there weren't even much of a progress but a place in the stomach now has two small craters in it. And it was really small.
"We are almost there!"
And so days passed.
34th day.
"Wait so your mom threw you away?"
"Yes."
"What a bitch."
39th day.
"Why did he have to die!!! Why!"
"There, there boy."
42nd day.
"Your dad is so nice, I'm crying!"
"There, there old man."
43rd day.
"Why did she have to die!"
"Now that's just fucked up!"
"Ahhhh!"
"I will never leave you!"
47th day.
"Sir can you not really even at least remember your name?"
"Nope."
50th day.
"You know when we get out, we're still inside."
"Yep."
"..."
"What?"
"It wasn't funny?"
"That was a joke?!"
56th day.
"If you weren't here I would have turned insane you know."
...
"Wake up sir!"
"Ahhhh!"
62nd day.
"I have a hole boy! I have a hole."
So on the 62nd day, the two were finally able to make progress.
"So what do you do with the hole?"
"Well you would love to learn this trick."
"What trick?"
The man once again pulled his arm out. But at that point Yuri was ok with it as pulling out his arm was just the normal hour for him.
Even dropping the sharp bone into the acid is just any normal hour.
"So if I throw it out I can just get it back."
The arm floated back to the man as he wasn't holding the arm at all.
"And so?"
"I could do this."
The man pulled out his arm again and at that time as he threw it into the acid. The arm didn't come back, instead the man's body started going to the arm in such a disgusting fashion.
Even Yuri was not used to such sights.
The man's entire body was going to the arm by every vein and muscle fibers slowly but surely.
The man then finished regenerating.
"Well you do that."
"..."
Yuri was speechless. Just because he thought that was so stupid.
"What is it for?"
"You really are stupid, the hole, we can go through the hole."
"What?"
"If I throw a single skin inside we can get out to his insides."
"Which is still in but at least it's out."
"You're understanding me now Yuri."
The man was touched and so he told Yuri.
"You just have to think of the other body part as your main body and start thinking of regenerating there. It's easy."
And so without hesitation, the man threw a small skin to the hole.
...
But it didn't fit, so after a short embarrassing moment, he just used the bone to force the skin to go through.
And so Yuri started to regenerate outside as his entire body slowly passed through the hole.
But there were just two things the man failed to calculate after all of that hard work.
The first was the amount of pain he felt going through the tiny hole. And second was that it was taking so long just to pass through the hole that it took days just to get his entire body out.
And so, Yuri had enough time to practice going through. But at some point he just felt so much pity he didn't wanna do it anymore.
The man couldn't scream aloud as he was just screaming internally as his entire body was like being squeezed out of a tight bottle.
"I kind of don't want to..."
"Don't chicken out Yuri! I can wait!"
"Is it open there?"
"We can fit!"
"Ok! I'm going through!"
And so it took 25 days till the both of them could even go to where they were at.
"See."
"This is so tight!"
"I said we would fit, and i'm right!"
"You stupid old man!"
"Shut up, just follow me."
As the two slowly crawled upward like that were swimming through slimy walls and sticky water, the two finally reached the lungs and the. The heart.
"Are you sure we can destroy it."
"I am pretty sure it won't be that hard."
And so on the 87th day of the tutorial, the man grabbed the heart and killed a mutated giant.
The heart splashed to the man's face and he was covered in blood.
"Well you did it!"
"I did!"
"I can only see red."
"And I can't see at all!"
