Chapter 1: Chapter 1
I, Yoshua Humvee, a 16 yr old high school graduate is now completely laying down in a room not knowing what happened. The room was too bright. It seems endless that even if I walk for an hour, it seems to not even reach the peak of this vast space.
I tried to recall what happen this morning.
I woke up around 5:50 in the morning and checked my phone. After opening it, I seem to have received a message. Inside it has a link. I clicked it without thinking much about what it was. I thought it was probably one of the games that I pre-registered online.
I had been a gamer ever since I was in middle school. I started playing Dota when I was in the Philippines, but when I moved to America, I started playing League of Legends. Later on, my computer was given out to someone else because I never sleep and doesn't go to school when I play an all nighter. And because of that I started playing any games on my phone.
When I clicked the link, it said "Can't go back after opening it. Proceed or Go Back." Without thinking what it could be, I still clicked "Proceed" because I didn't want the same thing to happen with my previous pre-registered game. I thought it was not released yet so, I waited for few more days finding out that it was the real thing so I was pretty much upset because I am so behind the game now.
And after I clicked it...
"I see, so that's what happen. After clicking it, I got here in this white room"
As I said those words. Out of nowhere, old tattered scroll appeared in front of me with a message. For now, lets read it...
[Welcome to Heaven's realm. I am sorry that I can't be there to talk to you personally. There was an urgent matter. I am a God of another world. You have been invited to live in our world. Swords and Magic exist there, it is totally fantasy like. It is the world where the Greek Gods lived. So, you probably know some of them. They used to live on your world but decided to move out somewhere far. Every one thousand years, they invite 3 people to live in their world and grant them some powers. And you are the exception, somehow we got 4 instead of 3. We truly apologize but we cannot return you to your previous world so we decided to make an exception this time. The other 3 people lived in the same era except for you. You seemed to be advanced for 200 years before them. Well, I am not going to tell you much. We will let you select random 5 race you want to be in that world and a special ability. You can only choose one, so be wise. Oh by the way, I am Cronos, The God of Time. Do not confused me with Cronus, the Titan father of Zeus.
Well, goodluck and choose well.]
After reading that, the scroll disappeared and another scroll full of list of what my race will be.
Here is the list, according to Cronos I can only choose 1 of the 5 races that randomly appears in here.
"●Human ●Elf ●Random Beastman ●Demon ●High Human"
Out of the 5 races, my eyes was focused solely on High Human. When I clicked it, a description pop up about it. Here's what it says...
[High Humans are known to be legendary being in the World of Olympia. They have a lifespan of 200-500 thousand years. They are also called demi-gods by the humans. Only 4 remaining High Humans that are still alive in Olympia to this day.
-First, The Great Sage who wandered around the world to seek knowledge. He is also the youngest of the 4 High Humans. Age :1400.
-Second, The Wandering Knight who became a knight at age of 14. Known as the genius of swordsmanship. Some call him the Sword Saint. He disguised himself as normal human to join the knights at young age due to poverty. Rumours has it, he goes city to city wearing his old knight uniform and disappears the next few days. Age :1850.
-Third, The Hermit. Only few people has seen her. She secluded herself in the Forest of Death. No one dares enough to go there due to strong monsters. She once destroyed a whole city when she visited a human country because she was treated bad. Age : 3600.
-Lastly, The Legendary Sea Princess. She had lived for 5 thousand years defending her country known as "Atlantis." It is located near the sea where the God Poseidon used to lived in. She is not known in the public, only by a few royalties that can be trusted. She is also their last card in case disaster befalls on them.]
That was too much information but I guess it was useful to know some fellow High Human. Oh by the way, I already chose my race to High Human as soon as I had seen it. I am familiar with other races since I am a gamer.
After all that, the scroll shine brightly and it turned into golden scroll from an old tattered scroll. It seemed to contain blessing of the Gods, if I choose the God of War's blessing, I might be able to use every weapon and be able to master it 5x faster than anyone else. There was bunch of God's blessings but only one blessing piqued my interest. It was the blessing of Hephaestus, he was the God of fire, metalworking, stone masonry, forges and the art of sculpture. Created weapons for the gods and married to Aphrodite.
When i clicked his blessing, this comes out...
"God of Fire and Metalworking Blessing: Enable the user to become a Divine Blacksmith. The things created by this blessing will be enhanced to a certain degree to be called a Divine Equipment and can use Divine Magic.
Divine Whitesmith, creates magic equipments without needing materials. Only the users magic power to be consumed to create magic equipments.
Extra Skill: Divine Arts Magic"
[Acquiring Divine Arts, user will be given Unique Skills. Which are : Creation Magic, Divine Box, Imagination Magic, and Appraisal]
It seems that I hit a jackpot on choosing a blessing. When I clicked the blessing, everything disappeared. And I slowly felt dizzy to the point where I lost my consciousness.
○○○○●●●●○○○○
When I open my eyes, I was kind of disappointed to where I was teleported. This is not the typical novel that I read where you wake up near a tree and close to a city. I woke up in the middle of the forest, it was night. Night!!!! Not Morning!!!! Ugh, I am too frustrated right now because I am in the middle of a forest and God knows how far it is from the city. And I feel like anytime, a dangerous beast will show up and devours me.
I need to prepare myself, first I need to figure out my Divine Arts. Then find shelter, food, and water.
"If I may recall, before I lost my consciousness. It says I have Appraisal, Divine Box, Imagination Magic and Creation Magic as a Unique Skill due to obtaining the Divine Arts." As I was murmuring to myself while hiding under a giant tree. It was a common thing in the novels I read about saying status and something will show up. Maybe I should try it.
"Status" as I said it out loud. I felt stupid. Nothing came out. Maybe it is different. Since I have appraisal, maybe I can use appraisal on myself?
As I was asking myself, I decided to put my hands on my chest and said "Appraisal"
"Woah, it worked!" I almost jumped of excitement as soon as I said the word, a screen appeared in from of me.
Here's my status...

Woah!! Too much information. It seems that there are 6 magic attributes in this world. And the Divine Arts is like the peak of every attributes there is. The color itself is gold which symbolizes the power of Gods in this world. And it seems like I got a Divine Box which is similar to inventory in games or infinite item box in novels.
Also, the Divine Smithing skills are also ridiculous. I better use my Whitesmith secretly if I use some Divine Mana into it. Well, of course I can also use a normal mana which is okay to use in public. But the forging might be a little bit of a problem, So I should just use it around blacksmiths in this world to get their trust and gain some knowledge about blacksmithing.
That's it then, for now I should just sleep since it looks safe in this giant tree. I want to use appraisal on it but I will do that tomorrow. I am too sleepy.
.

....
.....
...
*Yawn*
"Goodmorning"
I said that even though I am all alone. After I woke up, I decided to create a weapon. A weapon is a must. I need to survive. Therefore, a weapon is a must! Oh by the way, the giant tree was called " Pillar Tree " it is the biggest tree in this world except for the "World Tree". There are 6 Pillar Trees in this World. It seems that each tree has each Guardian Spirit and that each tree has different element. Since the tree I slept in was so gloomy and it looks evil. I guess this is where the Dark Guardian Spirit dwells.
That is why I left there as soon as I learned what it was. That could be dangerous.
As I am walking, I am trying to think what type of weapon I will make since I am going to make a Treasure Class weapon. As a gamer and anime lover. Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works was one of my top 10 anime. I remember Saber's sword Excalibur. It looked badass.
So, I was putting my Divine Mana while trying to materialize the weapon, it felt like as if I am being sucked in to the golden light that appeared in front of me. Since I am making a Magic Sword, it will look exactly like her sword, which is invisible. Well, I can see it clearly but for others, it will look like a wind with a shape of a sword.
Oh, this is the status of the sword.
""Name: Holy Sword: Excalibur
Element: Divine Wind and Divine Light
Type: Weapon
Class: Treasure Class
Owner: Yoshua Humvee(Can't be used by others without approval)
Attributes:
-Strength: 600
-Magic: 1200
●Extra Skill
-Wind and Light Magic will be 2x stronger.
-By gather Mana into the sword, it can form a giant Wind and Light sword depends on how much mana is added
-Sharpness is 10x stronger than regular Treasure Class""
It was indeed strong. I guess I can have fun shouting "Excalibur" when I gather some mana into it.
"Hahahaha this is good. So good that I cannot wait to test it out" I was laughing viscously in the middle of the forest not thinking what might happen.
After equipping the sword, this is my status now "Appraisal"

It indeed boosted me quite high. But my Divine Mana is almost gone. I need to be careful next time. Well, it was worth it.
..
....
After walking for 30 more minutes. I found a river, I was overjoyed because I have not drink anything since last night. I ran to the river right away and when I was about to take a sip. There was a Boar 5 meters away from me. It was looking intensely at me which frightened me a little but instead of panicking, I decided to check how strong this Boar is.
{Name: Forest Boar
Type: Monster
Magic Attribute: None
Level: 23
Strength: 450
Magic: 0
P.Def: 400
M.Def: 500
Speed: 450
Luck:25}
This definitely looks dangerous. It's 22 level higher than me. Don't tell me this forest is not your typical forest of weak monster!!!
Well, I can't do anything about this. I took my Excalibur out from my Divine Box and took a stance. Even though I look so frail and weak. I practiced taekwondo and a few swordsmanship or kendo you might say. Well, of course it's a Japanese Style. I love their katanas so I decided to own some real katanas and practice at home while watching videos for training guides on Youtube.
I put 50 Divine Mana into the sword and the grayish wind excalibur shined brightly and released it at the Forest Boar who is charging at me.
"BOOM!"
..
...
"Damn, that was too strong. Just 50 Divine Mana is enough to sliced it in half."
This is probably because of the Extra Attribute of the Excalibur's 10x sharpness and the wind it releases is 2x stronger than it should be. Next time, I should just use Normal mana. I don't have any Magic skills yet so, I will be relying on this sword.
After beating the Forest Boar, I decided to carry the sliced up boar to the river and washed it. I dismantled it as best as I could. I made sure that I emptied the blood inside it. I prepared some stones and branches to make a grill and cut some parts of it.
Oh by the way, I crafted a magic knife with normal mana. it cost 250 mana so it was pretty normal. Here it is...
""Name: Normal Magic Knife
Element: Fire
Type: Weapon
Class: Normal Class
Strength: 100
Magic:150
●Extra Skill:
-Sharpness 2x
-Ignite Fire""
I created something I can use, I can also alter the extra skill it has but I need to add 10 Divine Mana for those 2, the stronger extra skill I add on the equipments, the higher it consumption of divine mana is required.
Everything was set up so I started grilling it for 20 minutes and it was ready. After eating for 10 minutes. It was pretty normal. It had no salt and any other spices so it was just plain. I put the other meat in my Divine Box for later and decided to continue finding my way out of the forest.
