Spell To Win A Competition

“Welcome, Player. Enter your world and change your fate. But beware: victory is not what it seems.” Samuel Thompson was a sharp and resourceful man, but even he was at his wit's end. Bills were piling up, his sister’s condition was worsening, and his final paycheck from his bankrupt workplace barely covered a week’s groceries. Just when he thought he had exhausted every option, a mysterious box appeared at his door. Inside was a game with a promise: a chance to compete for life-changing money. It felt like a lifeline. No entry fee, no catch—just a simple login. But the moment Samuel logged in, everything changed. He was transported into the game itself, where he found himself among 99 other contestants. Each of them had their own desperate reasons for being there, but the stakes were the same for everyone. The game was no ordinary competition. It tested their mental, physical, and survival skills in ways they could never have imagined. Alliances formed and broke apart, secrets emerged, and the line between friend and foe blurred. And then there was the ominous rule: there could be more than one winner, but there was also a real possibility of no winners at all. Will Samuel use his intelligence to overcome the challenges ahead? Or will the game’s hidden truths prove too much for him and his fellow players to bear? One thing is certain: the game is far more than it seems, and the fight for survival is just beginning.

Consequently, he died at the age of 19 as he simply had too many enemies to fend off with just wit and resources alone, he was struck down by the magic spell of his lifelong brother-in-arms at the forefront of war. What surprised Sora however, was the fact that not only was he given a swift death, but he was put further down on the path to reincarnation, Rather than being revived 100 years later where his name would still be very well known, he was revived 1,000 years later in the modern era.
