First mission
Aaron was in the white room, breathing with some difficulty while around him lay a group of dead wolves and goblins.
"Good job boy, you finally managed to finish them off"
"{Pant} This got a lot more complicated when you started adding wolves, not to mention those archers… Who would make them ride wolf's?"
"Out there you will find more bizarre things boy, but you did well, I thought you would fall a couple more times until you make it"
"I was lucky that the archer lost control of the wolf, otherwise I would not have been able to take care of him before the other one filled me with arrows"
"Ha, that was fun."
"Not for me"
"Cheer up boy, I have good news"
"Really?"
"And also a bad one"
"..."
"The good news, you no longer petrify yourself when you split something in two and your skills improved, you can check your status, during these three days I have made a couple of improvements"

"And this means?"
"Simple boy until now ,only the maximum stats were shown, I apply the temporal status to your statistics, so you will not have to do the calculation on your own"
"I see ... What are SPs?"
"Stat points, when you level up, you will get two, also when you complete missions or feats you can get them"
"..."
"You know, usually players are more excited after a patch like this ..."
"… so? What's the bad news? "
"So that was why ... Do you remember that I mentioned that time doesn't pass here, right?"
"Yes..."
"Well, it has a limit and you are about to reach it"
"Wait, what? What is the limit? "
"Look boy, when you enter here, for you time passes normally, but for your body not, this causes great stress on it and may cause damage, I need you to rest so that your mind and body are totally synchronized again"
"And why didn't you say it before !?"
"Easy kid, as long as we respect the limits nothing will happen"
"... well, how much do I have left?"
"A couple of hours, it's not long but you can rest and prepare for what awaits you out there"
Without saying more, Aaron decided to meditate as his mother taught him to pass the time, after three hours Hal spoke.
"Are you ready boy? It's time"
Taking a deep breath Aaron opened his eyes and said
"I hope so"
"You'll do fine boy, don't worry"
After that Aaron disappeared from the room, and before he realized, he was back in the forest.
Getting up slowly, he faced the bushes from which a group of four goblins and an orc two meters high emerged. They had some injuries on their bodies and were clearly hungry, they looked at Aaron and with delight to see that he was alone they laughed.
Seeing this, Aaron stepped back placing himself on guard in front of the fire thus covering his back, seeing how his prey planned to resist the orc snarled and the goblins began to surround Aaron who only prepared his sword.
Seeing that, one of the goblins took a rock and threw it at Aaron who defended himself without major problems. Taking advantage of the moment when he thought Aaron was distracted, one of the goblins lunged at him to which Aaron responded with a dodge causing the goblin to fall to the ground and be impaled by Aaron.
Without any pity for their fallen companion the three remaining goblins pounced on Aaron who, seeing this used the weight of the sword to rotate thus severing the arm of an unarmed goblin and pushing another who managed to cover himself with his club.
The third goblin seeing what Aaron was planning, ducked dodging the cuts and waited for Aaron to stop so he could jump on him, but to his bad luck Aaron seeing this threw his sword which by inertia ended up impaling the unfortunate goblin.
Regaining his balance Aaron quickly grabbed the fallen goblin's club and ignoring the goblin who screamed in pain as he escaped he lunged at the remaining goblin on the ground finishing with a single blow.
Seeing that all the goblins were out of combat, Aaron returned his gaze to where the orc was, only to see that it was no longer there, realizing his mistake Aaron turned his gaze only to find the fist of an orc which threw it next to the fire.
In pain Aaron searched something to defend himself and he quickly found the backpack that the chosen one had left him, from which a dagger protruded from one side.
Seeing how the orc was about to finish him off with a stomp, Aaron rolled to dodge him and approaching the backpack he took the dagger and faced the orc, seeing this the orc approached extending his arms to take Aaron to prevent him from escaping to which Aaron reacted by rolling between his legs and severing one of the orc's tendons.
This caused the orc to fall to the ground under its own weight, seeing the opportunity Aaron hastily positioned himself next to the stewpot and breaking one of the three supports with a slash of the dagger, made the boiling soup fall on the orc.
After that, Aaron quickly jumped on the orc who could not defend himself from the pain and buried the dagger in his neck, causing the orc to throw him aside but for the orc that was his last attempt of resistance before stopping all movement.
Seeing that there were no more threats, Aaron sighed as he went to pick up the dagger from the orc's corpse and saw a window appear in front of him.

"What is this?"
"A small achievement, is what I mentioned recently"
"..."
"Putting that aside, you did a good job, at least they didn't kill you"
"It was close, but at least it was all over"
"Not so fast boy, after that fight other beasts will soon come because of the blood, pick up the camp and let's get away quickly"
"There is not much I can carry, I will just take the backpack and the dagger"
"Right, you are not a player, I forget that you do not know obvious things of the system"
"...?"
"Your inventory boy, you can put things in it as long as you do not exceed the limit, you can consider it as a type of space-time magic"
Following Hal's instructions, Aaron picked up the camp and started walking east for an hour.
"This will be enough boy, walking through the forest in the dark is dangerous for now climb a tree and rest"
Climbing up the first tree he found, Aaron settled in and whispered to Hal
"Okay, now what do you suggest?"
"I don't know boy, you're the one who knows this place"
"..."
"Okay ... For now, I think the best thing we can do it would be for us to go to a city and build a camp nearby, from there we'll see what to do"
"... In that case the best thing is to go to Caya. I know a good place, it is a hill about no more than 20 kilometers from the city. From the highest part we can see the city as well as the coast. I used to go with my father to that place..."
