This really isnt a game!

The ring of metal is heard and the thump of a body hitting the floor.

Daichi: Im a samurai duels like that are my specialty.

He looks back at the body it isnt turning to dust like in the game.

Daichi: I-i killed a person...

Almost as if killing somone killed a part of him he can feel himself losing the moral of not killing this is no longer the same boy who opened the door to get the dlc for a video game whos worse hardship he ever faced was getting a bad grade in school. No this was a killer.

He leaves the cave and stands atop a small cliff. In the game there was an emote here but in this world there isnt.

Daichi: This really... isnt a game.

Daichi shudders as he says this cause hes been rejecting the thought deep down this entire time but just now he gave up on rejecting the thought he truly knows its all real now.

He touches the site of grace and continues on grabbing eventually finding a solid iron door which he lifts open and sees limgrave a grassy mostly flatish area.

He ignores white mask varre because nobody likes him and sneaks past the tree sentinel until he gets to the church of elleh he grabs and breaks a golden rune outside of the church giving him just enough runes to grab he crafting kid and a torch.

Daichi: Thanks kalle youre a true friend.

He heads past the church and kills a couple dozen guards and heads into a cave to the left of them. He cave is filled with wolves but he runs past them and barely makes it into the boss room where he fights a beastman of farum azula..

It attacks daichi but he back steps and sends a flurry of slashes at it. Rinse and repeat a couple of times and the beast man dies giving him a bunch of runes.

Daichi: that fight was much easier in this world than in the game although more physicaly taxing.

He leaves the cave and heads north even more until he comes to another grace when the hooded woman reappears.

Melina: I am Melina and I have come to offer you an accord. Do you know of the finger maidens they give strength in exchange for runes. I can take the place of finger maiden you need just bring me to the foot of the erdtree.

Daichi: I accept.

Melina: Then rest your hand upon mine for but a moment.

Daichi does so.

Daichi:(there's no hud but I can will the runes to transfer strength in different ways and I can just feel how strong that aspect of me is. I should put all of my runes into vigor)

When he is done Melina gives him a whistle when used it summons torrent. It even comes with a free saddle and sleeping bag so seeing as it was getting dark he goes back to the church of elleh and goes to sleep but he he is woken up in the middle of the night only to see mist covering everything kalle asleep and a woman sitting on some stones in the distance she has blue skin dark blue hair 4 arms a giant snow white witch hat and a small stature.

???: Come hither.

Daichi walks closer and she begins talking.

Renna: I am the witch renna I was acquainted with torrents previous owner and came to hear that you are currently in possession of torrent is this true?

Daichi: Yes.

Renna: Torrents previous owner tasked me with giving this.

She gives daichi the spirit calling bell and wolf summons.

Renna: My task here is done farewell.

Daichi: Farewell.

Daichi let's out a warm smile as she leaves and she notices maybe this will lead to new outcomes in the future.

He goes back to sleep and wakes up energized.

Daichi: Alright let's do some preparations.

He heads far north limgrave and enters a dungeon grabbing a second uchigatana off of someone's corpse kinda nasty but after finding a lever he unlocks the door to the boss room.

Daichi: Whew let's do this.

He enters the room and sees his enemy a black knife assassin.

Daichi: You're fast so I should-

The assassin rushes at him instantly nearly beheading him instantly but he was able t evade due to quickstep an ash of war he equipped on his way here.

Daichi: -be careful...

He waits for another attack and when it happens he uses Quickstep to quickly get behind them in an attempt to stab them in the back but they dodge so his blade only Knicks them.

Daichi: Heh you really are fast.

Daichi equips his second uchigatana.

Daichi: Oh you're screwed now.

He jumps towards them but they sidestep in response daichi follows up with a flurry of slashes most of which connect but the assassin backdrops but daichi quicksteps closer and that's when he has a brilliant idea.

It's no longer a video game so he isn't restricted in his use of mana. As he is rushing at the assassin he sheathed both of his blades and begins charging mana into them he pours every ounce of mana into them and when he feels like he physically can't fit anymore into them he draws the blades and mana comes pouring out like jetfire propelling the blades forward Many times stronger and faster and the assassin attempts to evade but daichi is faster and ensures the attack connects cleaving the assassin in half with ease.

Daichi: Well I didn't expect that.

He says this just before drinking an fp flask.

Daichi: Now I have the assassins crimson dagger talisman so back stabs will give health back.

Daichi heads to one more dungeon to get the blue dancers charm which gives enhanced attack the less weight you're carrying which is the one he will be using for now. The total trip took about a month but now he is back and is now heading for storm veil castle which is northwest limgrave. He enters the main corridor after taking out the group of soldiers in the front.

Daichi: Finally made it to you Margitt or should I call you Morgott

Morgott: How do you know that name!

Daichi: Oh I know a lot of thinks like your brother mohg or the fact that this isn't the real you and that you're infact in leyndell right now.

Morgott: You know too much!

Daichi: Oh you have no idea.

Morgott Instantly manifests an energy hammer and lunges at daichi but it's evaded.

Daichi: Heh take this!

Daichi slams margitts shackle slamming morgott to the ground.
