"Hahaha I gave that stupid man a funny name, looks like I get the last laugh! Serves him right for calling an angel weak!""Well you did lose to him, is that how you return his favor of not killing you? Not that either of you will remember anyway though. Whatever, go get ready, you'll be in the next batch."Everything is black'Where am I?''Who am I?''My name is poko…''what a dumb name, who the hell came up with that''Why can't I remember anything?'Suddenly everything turns white'Are these my hands? Guess so'As poko looks around he sees other people just like him, confused and looking around. Everyone is spread out seemingly randomly and they go as far as he could see in every direction. The closest person is probably 40 ft away. Someone in the distance yells"HELLO? WHATS GOING ON HERE"And as if to answer, a screen suddenly pops up in front of everyone that reads:[Welcome contestants! You are the first batch of challengers to the tower, your memories have been wiped to make

Poko left in the direction that the Goblins came from, except he walked along the edge of the forest rather than risk an ambush in the weeds. After a couple minutes of walking he found another batch of 5 heading in the direction of the door. One of the green bastards actually had a sword and Shield.After a quick thought Poko decided to ambush them since they hadn’t noticed him yet. They were walking right towards him as he hid in some brush behind a tree. ‘As long as I can kill that sword guy and get some distance I should be fine. Although it might be better to deal with the easier guys first since he has a shield and could block the blow. I think I can kill two before they respond so let’s try that.’As poko waits and tenses up he regrets not trying to meditate for mana but it was to late for that now. As they walk up to the tree Poko is hiding behind he suddenly lunges out swinging his dagger using piercing stab on the closest creature and swinging his sword towards another. It

An hour later Poko was slowly, stealthily getting closer to the settlement. At this point Poko had 12 health again although his wounds were still sore and stiff. Dusk was going to set in in about an hour and poko was determined to not get caught today. Unfortunately hide wasn’t a very powerful skill, it only passively helped him hide, mostly when he was sitting still. But he still used this advantage to slowly get closer and closer to the settlement, keeping low and in the thicker grasses when he could. As another hour passed and dusk settled, Poko’s health reached 17 making him feel much more comfortable. The encroaching darkness also helped him blend in as most of the goblins returned to the small village. As poko got closer he heard all sorts of occasional fighting, even witnessing a small child goblin being killed and the two adults laughing. But that wasn’t it, in the center of town was a big fire with a pot which they threw the body into. The goblins later ate out of that pot

Poko ran quicker than a babysitter’s boyfriend when the car pulls up. He got to the nearby river and dives straight in. After about 20 minutes of only coming up for air he finally leaves the water. Taking a total of 2 damage from the stings.“This honey ingredient is a trap! Damn you ingredient knowledge! Never again! How did the bear do it?? Did he pick the right one or maybe they can’t pierce its fur? Well I’m not touching them anymore!!”Poko slowly went to the shore ready to cast lesser fire, flinching at the sound of buzzing nearby, ready to cast the spell while jumping back in at a moments notice. Suddenly Poko realized, their were bear prints along the river. And these bear prints were bigger than the other bear. Poko curiously walks in the direction the prints came from while watching the trees and looking for plants. Unfortunately he lost the trail quickly but keeps walking in the general direction.About an hour and a half later of carefully walking along Poko finds a gi

“KHKHKHKH”The worm gives a weird cry in pain and charges. Poko decided to step into the big room since he did not want to get trapped in the long corridor with that things mouth behind him. When the worm gets close it opens its mouth and Poko does not wait to see what it’s doing. Using quick steps Poko increases his speed as he feels a bit of energy drain from him. He rolls to the side just as tiny pointy rocks fly from the worms mouth, hitting the other side of the corridor. ‘This thing definitely can’t turn well.’Poko runs behind it, giving the worm a wide berth. He starts to cast lesser fire and surprisingly the worm rolls to its side and whips its tail right at Poko. He uses his shield to block and gets whipped to the side, taking 3 damage and breaking his concentration. The spell fizzles and Poko loses 5 mana. The worm turns its head to him and poko uses quick steps again just as the cooldown resets, dodging another breath attack. This time he goes a bit further away, makin
