"*Cough* *Cough* *Cough*" Alan was coughing as he just got hit in the stomach by a flaming boar who was extremely aggressive

"Harder," the boar's flames grew even more intense when he heard what he said rushing at Alan angrily who closed his eyes ready to embrace death once again

But out of his control, Alan swung his sword down at the boar as its flames tried to push it back

In the end, it pushed both of them back as the boar ran at Alan who side-stepped the boar before pushing his sword into the side of the boar leaving a huge slash on its side

"RAAHHHHHH" The boar was shocked that his defense was countered by a kid before he rushed at him a lot slower this time

Jumping above it not bothered by its flames he plunged his sword right into its neck killing it

"*Sigh* Life is hard...why is it so hard to die" Alan kicked a pebble that was close to him before glancing up at the really tall trees that covered the entire blue sky

"Even the Forest is suppressing the light" Alan watched his surroundings looking at the large trees and bushes that rattled from the breeze

Deciding to do something worth his while Alan decided to walk around finding his time here boring

Alan ended up finding a kind of lake surrounded by beautiful flowers and trees making it hard to find

"It's...Ugly" Alan walks around the place observing the flowers and smelling them

"Interesting" Alan smells the delightful aroma that the Flower gives off

Getting up from crouching Alan then walked to the lake that was as calm as the Oceanus Sea that was known for housing dangerous sea creatures because of the relaxing nature

Alan dipped his finger into the water and what came over him was a wonderful sensation that he hasn't felt in all of his time living

Keeping a straight face Alan felt all of his stress relieved while taking his finger out of the warm, clear water that Alan could see his reflection in

Alan was quite tall standing at 180.34 cm tall with dark purple hair and dark purple eyes coming with his tall body he was slim not having that much muscle or not having any at all

Alan was wearing a ripped and dirty black Cotehardie with black pants and was surprised that he still had shoes on his feet

Alan began to take off his shirt revealing his bare chest before he took off the rest of his clothing leaving him exposed before he jumped head first into the lake

Splash!

Alan created a splash that disrupted the peaceful flow of the water but as soon as it appeared the lake went back to its peaceful state

Alan floated around the lake looking up with a blank face before he closed his eyes enjoying the quietness of the place around

Even though Alan didn't show it on his face he enjoyed the feeling of the water brushing up against his bare body

He enjoyed the feeling and the peace and quietness that he longed for...it was like this place was made for him, a place where he could rest until his time came

Alan out of nowhere went underwater opening his eyes to see what was under the lake what he saw surprised him but didn't at the same time

It was a type of tunnel that looked like it lead to the bottom of the lake making Alan wonder what the tunnel lead to

Sticking his head up out of the water breathing in as much air into his lungs as he could before swimming down into the water

Once Alan got not even halfway he felt like he was going to pass out so he swam back up to the surface breathing heavily

"*Breath* *Breath* *Breath* *Breath* *Breath*" Alan was breathing hard while holding his chest hearing his beat as he tried to control it

"...My physical condition is not up to par" Alan then looked down at the lake after he got out of it before he closed his eyes

"My Lung Capacity is not as strong as before...same with my physical attributes" Alan stretched his arms before he got busy exercising

Getting down on the ground before getting in the position for a push-up before going down for one with his arms wobbly and his breathing hitched as he finally got to the optimum position and tried to bring himself up

Bringing himself up slowly as his muscles could barely do it Alan pushed through the pain as it wasn't even that bad to his standards since he experienced much, much worse

Finally completing his first push up Alan sat back up breathing heavily and tried to get it under control as he inhaled as much air as he could into his nose before letting it out slowly through his mouth

Alan repeated this process multiple times before he got back to doing his pushups to build his chest strength before he gradually started doing other exercises

Alan went on to Do Pushups, Pull-ups, and Burpees for his chest before doing Plank ups, Tri cep dips and inch works for his arms before multiple exercises to build his leg strength

Alan also Carried, pushed, and punched boulders to help with his training but also remembered to take rests and drunk lots of water to help his body get used to it

Just like that two months of training went by and Alan has increased his muscles making him the right size for his height, he was standing in front of the lake not letting any emotions show as he got ready to jump inside the lake

'Before I die... let's satisfy my itch' Alan then jumped inside of the lake creating small waves that then disappeared like nothing happened as Alan sunk deep inside it

Opening his eyes underwater Alan saw what looked to be an endless void staring back at him as he swam into not scared of what danger could await him

After swimming for a little while Alan felt the water get a little more resistance as he swam harder not going to get pushed back that easily

A little while longer it felt like every second the water was getting more and more resistant as Alan's lungs began to ware out needing air but Alan didn't turn back like he did last time

He pushed forward as he began to black out second by second until he was fully unconscious as water rushed into his lungs

Alan's body went limp as it flowed to the bottom of the lake as the resistance suddenly stopped making his body float like a feather in water

Is this the end of a tale that has yet to begin?
