The four pathways and the wolf.
"Since you wish to anger me I will show the consequences of your actions." said the goddess before everything went black.
[Welcome to the Harrowing plain!]
[Traveler has not selected any class during the character selection and therefore will start without a class. All of the traveler's attributes will therefore start with 10 and will be given 10 attribute points to spend.]
When Slade regained his vision he was standing in a massive green plain without much vegetation. After looking at the system logs he was both happy and fearful. Happy because he has the freedom to build his class and fearful because he was not sent to any beginner's village like he was supposed to.
"Damn that petty woman, I was just joking with her, but now where am I?" he muttered as he looked around to find any life. All he could hear was the wind with nothing around and what is with the unnerving name of this place.'At least it is a bit more interesting this way,' he thought as he decided to check his status.

Strength will define the amount of physical damage you cause when attacking with your bare hands or a weapon. This attribute is primarily used by attack-based Warriors. 1 point of STR equals 2 attack power.
Agility defines the rate you have to avoid the attack of a monster, NPC, or player. 1 point of AGI equals 1 of accuracy and 1 of evasion. Increasing Agility will also make your movement speed faster
Vitality represents the number of HP your character will have within the world. This attribute is the most important at the beginning of the game because if your HP is too low, you will not be able to resist a monster's attack. 1 point of VIT is equivalent to 10 HP.
Intelligence defines the number of skills or magic you can use. If your INT is low while you are in a battle, you cannot use any skill that requires mana consumption. This attribute is the most important one for Mage-type characters because 1 point of INT is equivalent to 10 MP and 2 points of magical damage.
Endurance is the amount of physical damage you can take. Increasing endurance increases your physical defense as well as lowers your chances of getting a physical debuff. his attribute is the most important one for tank-type characters as 1 point of endurance is 1 point of physical defense.
When you first choose a class the games will set your attribute points towards your class requirements and only after leveling up will you get the freedom of allocating your own points. This was one of the reasons Slade did not choose any of the default classes. The other reason why is that when you select your class you learn and upgrade class skills faster by a rate if 2 times and 2 times slower for other skills.
After Slade was done checking his status he started checking out the item he owns which was admittedly quite a few. Just a cotton Tunic, pants, basic shoes, and a rusty short sword.

As of now, Slade has no items to help him find where he is. So he started to look around the area and after 20 minutes he came back with some findings. The plains are empty no plants no lives and no mobs. There are four places he saw he could go, going forward from where he was would le to a big mountain with lots of cliffs and valleys. To the left leads to a desert that never seems to end and where you could actually feel the blistering heat from just looking afar. To the right is the most mysterious lake with cold mist steaming out of it. And last but not least behind him is a huge jungle with giant trees.
Now, where should he go, the desert is obviously out, the lake looks too dangerous and he does not have the energy to go hiking. The only choice left would be the peaceful-looking forest that looks like a trap.
Walking and gazing at the changing scenery while listening to the birds and insects and feeling the humidity in the air can be relaxing until you spot a 2-meter grey wolf that is giving you the same look like your friend when you left them hanging for an hour because you were sleeping.
"Hey sorry for disturbing but I will head out now," Slade said confidently before walking naturally.
'Inspect'
[Grey Wolf

"F*ck...please let me go I'm only level one!" cursed and pleaded Slade while running from the bloodthirsty beast that is way faster than him and catching up.
"Let's talk this out no need for violence."
'i hope this works or else I'm dog food, I'm starting to really get angry at this shitty goddess.'

"*phew*im glad that worked."Slade smiled when he saw the claws of death that just missed his throat "hahaha hahaha what's wrong you got to try harder...Oh shit." He felt stupid because his taunt made the beast go faster. While he was running he got an idea as he rapidly started climbing a tree on his way just to look at the dumb mutt that ate some bark.
While looking down he got a great idea as he unsheathed "Look up here boy! That's a good boy!" shouted Slade with an inverted grin on his face as he started free falling parallel to the tree while holding his sword with both than hands.
The wolf only saw a sword's edge and a human with an excited look on his face before...*splat*the wolf's lower jaw was impaled on the ground while the young literary started kicking it while it's down until it stopped moving.

Slade was panting and wheezing after kicking the wolf for the umpteenth time"hahaha hahaha that was epic...damn I'm awesome...hahaha thats what you get you stupid dog hahaha" he was reveling at the moment until...
"Guys this is not what this looks like ...*sigh*screw you Elaina!" shouted as looked up with a face of despair and saw 7 wolves of the same type he slew but bigger and fierce closing upon him in a semi-circle formation.
