As he entered the cave , he was greeted by an old man. The man has a very skinny body , so skinny , all his vein is visible. "Hello , young man. What are you doing in here?" Ask the old man. The boy then introduce himself as Alexis." I'm here because the cave piqued my interest" says Alexis. The old man went quiet for a few second before suddenly scream "None shall get the treasure" before he shoots out a giant ball of flame toward Alexis. The old man was a dragon task by a god to protect the secret contained in the cave.

"Aaahh!" Scream Alexis as he tried to avoid the fireball spit by the dragon. With all the strength he has , he further inside the cave in order to seek protection from the blast. After half an hour of running , he stumbled upon a pool of water that has no impurities in it. Drived by his thirst he drink the water not knowing the danger that lurk within' the water. As he started to gulp down the water , he felt a burning sensation all across his body."Ahhhhh!!!" he scream in agony as the burning sensation got hotter and hotter. After enduring it for 10 minute straight , he passed out from the pain.

It has been a few days since he fainted , alexis has already awake at this point wandered inside the cave as for him everything is clear. Nothing was able to escape his eye , snakes , frogs even mosquitoes. He realised he has gained some type of power from the pool but neither did he know alongside the power there was a curse. A curse that keeps the person alive even after they have been killed millions of times. That is the curse given to him for sullying The Pool Of Olympia.

Alexis get out of the cave and continued his way to his home." Nooo!!!" he scream furiously as he saw his house has been burned down by a mountain bandit group that live not far away from his house. Angrily , he punched the ground and the ground started to cracked. He stands up and run to the bandit hideout in order to slaughter them all. His mind was clouded with anger toward the bandit as that is the only thing left by his parent before they passed away.

With the speed of lightning , he arrived at to the bandit hideout. Without wasting a single second , he slaughter all the bandit in the camp. Having killed them all , he went to hide for a few years but he doesn't grow older. His appearance stay the same age when he drank from the pool , which is 17 years old. This doesn't bothered him at first but then he realised that he is immortal after three more years in hiding.
