Good morning.

The time was 9:30.

I headed out and got something to eat for my breakfast.

After eating I tried going into the nearby forest to kill some animals.

I hunted a few snakes and wolves with some traps and used combat that I had learned.

Unluckily I ran into the white tiger but it didn’t notice me.

I ran away because it was not something I could do with bare hands.

I sold the animals and got some money.

I really wanted to get better at magic and gain some skills so I could be stronger so I picked a few magic books and went home.

“ Basics of Magic “

Well it seems pretty interesting why not read it.

I went through the book in the normal world and then thought of training into Devil’s domain later.

“ Basics of magic “

“ Magic got discovered few years back after the change known as Maxim”

“ Anyone in the world can create and use different types of magic “

“ Although there are various magic in the world the most common one’s are fire, water ,earth , wind “

“ There is no limit on how much and how many types of magic you can learn either”

“ To use the basics you need to firstly imagine the magic and collect all the energy from your body to the mind “

“ Then focus on letting it out through different parts of your body as you want “

“ Most cases in the beginning can result in activation of magic right in front of your body because while activating the magic you need to also change the thinking and the way it unleashes itself.”

“ To do ranged attack from the hand you need to imagine the magic coming out of a very small area so it's like forcing its way out so it travels further”

“ For close combat explosions you need to imagine containing the magic in an area and unleashing it at once without setting any direction just like breaking a pot full of water”

“ After using magic for the first time you will get a skill related to the magic you used and further use of skill and normal magic will lead to unlocking more skills”

I read this book twice and was ready to go into the devil’s domain .

“ Devil’s Domain” ( Akuma no ryoiki)

1 second into 10 years

I opened the book and didn’t get a single bit of it.

( 2 weeks 3 days later in domain)

I remembered everything in the book so I started training.

“ Imagine the magic and send the flow of magic into the brain “

“ Throw it out of a part of your body part with small area as unleashing point “

I opened my eyes and luckily the fire didn’t explode on my hand.

It looked like the fire magic didn’t work at all.

I peeked into my hand just to see some fire coming out that was nearly around 9mm in size.

“Wow”

“ I wonder how hot and painful my hand will be when I get out of here.

Several months passed inside the domain and I tried to use all kinds of basic magic.

2 months on fire magic to make it at least look visible.

1.5 months on earth magic to get an earth ball with 2 cm radius.

2 months on water magic to get around 1/4th of a small cup of water.

2 months on wind magic to blow a leaf away.

Humph.

I could blow a leaf.

While working I also spent time on other stats.

I didn’t had to sleep nor would I get exhausted.

Finally I was able to spend around 1 year.

It's finally time.

I never forget the feeling of going out of this domain and experiencing the pain.

OOF.

*crack* *crack*

And I came bac-

Ouch.

I felt sleep deprived,exhausted,getting crushed by two elephants, my brain nearly exploding and all my body burning and cooling continuously for over 1 minutes.

I slept on the ground that day because I couldn’t move my body properly.

Next morning

I went to bathroom and saw the mirror and -

Holy shit !!!

Who is this???

I looked extremely changed from before.

I had proper eyebrows, jaw line, and eyes.

I even had a better height than before.

“ Lets see my stats “ ( starts to say it in a musical tone)

“Holy god gracious”

“ My stats “ ( teary eyes )

I fell on the ground.

And looked at my stats as if I was watching some kind of blessing I had received.

“Why is my luck still this bad?”

“Well it was bad from before “

I set my fake stats to 3000 on all of them.

I got to see the stats of some guys on my way to the restaurant I was gonna eat at.

“Hmm so most of them around here have around 9000 stats”

( enters the regular restaurant he used to eat)

“ Can I have some sprite with my regular meat please “

The owner went like “ I am sorry but it's actually your first time eating in this restaurant “

Huh?

Huhhhh?

I mean I knew I had changed but not to this extent.

“ Oh I am Akuma, the guy that usually eats chicken and gave you some wolf meat to eat one day, you remember??

“ Oh the aku- WHAT, you are not akuma. He was like this tall and didn’t look as good as you are. Stop lying.”

( didn't looked good pierced my body like a sword)

“ I really am akuma. I even gave you some meat the other day, remember??”

( She looked at me as if she saw some ghost )

“ How can someone change this much in a few days?”

( she started doubting me as I waited for my meat to arrive and finally believed after 15 mins of quarrelling )

“ Can I have a sprite and my regular meat please?”

“Oh! Sure “ She said it in a good voice and went to get it.

“ Lets try to learn swordsmanship now.”

I walked for a few minutes and here I am.

( Falco smithens)

“ Is there anyone here?”

“ helloooo.”

*thump*

“What do you want, kid?”

“ I am really interested in swordsmanship. Are there any available swords.”

‘ What kind of sword do you want?’

“Wha-”

I didn't know what kind of sword I wanted.

“Umm, Can I get a regular sword for training” ( my voice sounded a bit smaller from before)

‘ You don't know what kind of sword you want, do you?

( He figured me out)

“ well, ummm”

‘ So you actually don't. Kids these days oof.’

‘Where are your parents?’

“ I d-don’t have a-any now”

‘Now???’

‘ what are you trying to say???’

(I had tried to forget about them after they abandoned me but I couldn’t even after those years.)

“ Th-they abandoned me.”

‘THEY ABANDONED YOU!!!’

“ I am sorry but can I get a sword for training?”

( He knew I didn’t wanted to recall the memory so he stayed quiet)

‘ Here use this one, This is called Katana.’

‘ It is single edged and requires precise technique. Even if you are a newbie if you learn this then you might be able to use other double edge swords too. I would have sold this for 250$ but you can take it at 249$.’

‘ Giving you a great discount here ‘

*Glare with dead eyes*

“ Ok here is 249$”

I got the katana and the scabbard for it and got some books related to the swordsmanship and went home to practice.
