Is this a game anymore!?

Daichi: Ugh my head! What happened...

The migraine is met with a sudden rush of memories, memories not of the lands between.

Memories of a world where the lands between was a video game called elden ring made by fromsoftware a company known for making notoriously hard video games.

Daichi: So I bear the same name in both worlds interesting same age too.

As he tried standing up he suddenly got very dizzy so he decided to just sit down and regain his bearings.

Daichi: So I am a reedlander child son to a famous samurai I was raised to take over my father's position as clan head and samurai but at the age of 13 our clan was I Vader by a rival clan and all were killed except for me who was snuck out and across the ocean to the lands between but i woke up in an eternal city inside some empty room with mimics and some dragon parts. I snuck out of there and got back on my boat followed a rover which led me out of the underground into the sea in which i woke up here and seeing as I'm tarnished we can assume a tarnished married into the clan at somepoint oh and I was born with a birth defect that caused zero pigmentation in my hair and my eyes but not my skin oddly enough.

Daichi: Okay I think I got everything in order now it's just time to find out how to open the menu...

He then spent 30 minutes trying to open his menu and eventually came to the conclusion that he cant open the menu or more like there wasn't a menu.

Daichi: Thats..That's... not so mildly concerning more like absurdly concerning! IS THIS NOT A GAME!?

After a couple minutes of trying to calm himself down he eventually does calm down and starts to get his equipment in order.

Daichi: I have the body and undeveloped muscles of a 13 year old, well for my age their rather developed due to how I was raised but compared to most adult warriors I'm weak so most of my gear has got to go.

He removed his helmet chest plate gauntlets bow arrows and and then he put it all back on cause he realized he won't be able to beat the grafted scion and should deal with his gear after getting to mainland .

Daichi: Grafted scion here I come.

He reaches the stone archway where he sees the giant statue of marika he walks closer to it and he hears the familiar rush of air and then a crash.

Daichi: Grafted Scion, Bane Of Noobs!

The grafted Scion pierces at him but he jumps back and shoots 6 arrows and fire arrows at it which did small chunks of damage but the scion closed the distance so he switched to his uchigatana and went in too hitting it with unsheathe before dodging a couple of attacks and returning more hits until the boss got to half health and activated its skill enveloping its blades in golden aura.

Daichi: Great now I gotta deal with a bajillion arms a shield and 2 super powered shortswords!

The grafted scion jumps in the air and plunges down on him doing major damage he squeezes out from under it and in a panic runs away in whatever direction he can.

Daichi: Oh God!

He looks back and the grafted scion has already closed the distance and just as he is about to be killed the grafted scion suddenly slows down to a fifth no maybe a tenth of its original speed giving daichi just enough time to lean out of the way of a couple attacks and he was going to attack back when his foot slipped and he fall off the cliff into the ocean.

In some wet cave a hooded woman and a horse... ox thing stop next to an unconscious daichi.

???: This is the person? What do you see in this scrawny kid torrent?

Torrent neighs at the woman as if communicating.

???: Fine ill do it since youre so confident.

The woman pulls out 2 bottles one red and one blue and places them in his satchel.

As the woman and torrent disappear daichis wakes up nearly seeing them.

As soon as he wakes up he instantly checks his butt.

Daichi: Oh thank god i dont got the bottles on my butt.(iykyk)

After sighing in relief he gets up and looks at a ghost sitting on a chair. He can hear faint talking coming from the ghost its telling him to jump into the cave below and so he does.

Daichi: Ow my legs i forgot this isnt a game anymore.

After a little walking he comes across his first sight of grace he pokes it and the golden glow dissipates for a few seconds before reforming like a glowing cloud.

Daici: Hm i wonder how these actually work.

He sits infront of the grace and feels a nice warmth from it. He can also feel the pain in his legs from fall disappearing. The liquid in his flasks also vibrate as if trying to refill but they cant gain anymore than already in there.

Satiating his curiosity he stands up and looks into the depths of the cave.

Daichi: Lets do this.

He walks deeper into the cave and comes across a necrotic peasant.

Daichi: My first normal enemy.

The peasant slowly tries to slash at him but he steps back and counters it with a slash of his own since they dont wear any armor it was a fatal hit.

Daichi begins walking to the next enmy when something dawns on him.

Daichi: Wait are the peasants dead or alive... the game never explained that and my memories of this world dont have anything related to the lands between because im a reedlander.

Daichi examines the peasant closer seeing its skin sinking in its eyes almost rotting and comes to the conclusion that they were on the verge of death. Easing his mind he goes on to kill the rest until he approaches the boss room.

Daichi: Okay my first non tutorial boss i got this.

He enters the room and a soldier begins approaching him.

Daichi: Rick! Soldier Of God! Our battle will be legendary!

The soldier rushes at daichi but daichi sidesteps and returns in kind but the soldier backsteps.

Daichi: What!? You never did this in the game!

Soldier: What? What are you talking about?

Daichi: He speaks!!!

Soldier:...

Daichi: My bad lets finish this.

Daichi sheathes his uchigatana preparing to end the fight in one hit.

The soldier of godrick picks his stance ready to end it in kind. Unsheathe vs square off the battle of instant death.

Both slowly circle until they get within range of eachother and both release their blades along with their killing intent.
