Journal Entry #1
(1)
It's my first day in the dungeon, with the forest spread across everywhere except for that one free field of grass, which is where I normally train.
There's also that Tome regalia— it's essentially a martial arts style tome, for both the sword (Odachi) and CQC (close quarters combat). Otherwise don't know where I'm going to get a sword from, I certainly can use these hands.
Unfortunately (or fortunately), I haven't gotten any experience with Frenzy beasts (monsters), although considering my current skill and level, it would definitely be safe or not to fight against those things. Not saying that I haven't attempted to fight against half frenzied beasts, essentially mutated animals. But, I've lost every single encounter.
Now, aspects of reality are essentially attributes/affinities from any sort of game/ novel. And although I don't really have that much experience using them (and since I haven't unlocked the ability to check what they actually do), I can't really use them to their full potential. The best I've done is teleporting with [Traversor of Endless Worlds], which I assume Will give me more variations of space manipulation later on.
Basically— I'm doing pretty good right now. And it also seems I don't really have to worry about sleeping or hygiene either when it comes to this dungeon, really convenient. Although, there is something that bothers me about my aspects of reality.
[Uncrowned emperor]
I wouldn't really see myself as the guy to lead others, so I don't see why I have the ultra powerful AoR that is [Uncrowned emperor], which only the antagonist obtained after making a contract with an Eldritch Devil and meeting the requirements, along with the protagonist... So why would I have such a power?
And I can't even use any of its abilities too, so that's a bummer.
Anyways, That's it for this entry log. Bay-bye!

Now I've finally started to use more abstract uses of Prana, along with just getting way better at martial arts. Too bad I don't have a weapon though...
I've also asked Delta various questions about the person who's reincarnated me, but they simply refuse to budge. I've also tried to look in my memories in the game to find a person called "Solus Zetta Artoria", with the weirdest part being that I have a middle name.
Commoners only have a first name, with nobles having a first and last name. Only royalty have middle names— so it's either this is self-given (which would be a crime), or I'm actual royalty, which I doubt. Not like I can remember the character anyways— so I can only assume that this body was specifically made for me or something (but it's not like I can remember everything)
Oh, I've Also engaged in combat with my first frenzy beast. Only now do I realize how bad having a bag covering your head is. Not only does it limit your vision, but they're also naturally easily destroyable... Due to me not following my flaw, I suffered an extreme amount of pain that day, until I could finally repair the bag with more Prana (if only I knew that earlier...)

Now I effectively hunt frenzy beasts daily, which I now realize are limited to snakes. I wonder if I'm going to fight orochi or something for the boss monster.
I can also confidently say that I've reached the current limits of my martial arts without enlightenment, although that's probably just because I haven't foughten any other humans who also use martial arts, or really any other humanoid creature— I would definitely receive enlightenment from that. Also, it's been about 3 months since my reincarnation, which is given me plenty of time to master Prana manipulation with this body of mine, But of course, I'm completely self-taught. I'm probably not that skilled.
I've stepped on to trying to manipulate Aeon but there's been almost zero progress. However, I have also learned to differentiate frenzy and wisdom Prana, furthering my control over the energy. Also... I've started to look deeper and deeper into the forest today, scouting, ya'know? And I found a massive black door that would supposedly lead to nothing— it was clearly the entrance to the boss monster. I'm thinking of training for a while more until I dare fight the thing.

Today is the day. I'm going to finally fight the boss monster, although I'm currently resting since I've had a serious fight with a couple of frenzy beasts trying to kill me— if I were to scale myself with every monster I've fought, and take an unknown variables such as mutations, I'm probably top five in this entire Forest. Top 5.
It's not like the boss. Monster is always the strongest in the dungeon as well, since of course, mutations and other unknown variables.
I've also started to control Aeon more frequently recently, and my manipulation of my AOR has surged. Although I don't remember receiving enlightenment, it's probably just me being a bit more... Imaginative.
An example : with [atraverser Of endless Worlds], I could amplify the amount of kinetic energy I could generate to essentially create a massive blast. Does it follow the laws of physics in any shape or form? No, energy can only be changed and transferred (supposedly)— so I don't really know how it works. I've also been trying to talk to myself I guess... There's this voice in my head (I might actually be schizophrenic), and I swear they're so prideful.
And no, I'm not talking about Delta. I've decided to call them...Reighn, for now at least.
