"My head!"

After the Kersas countdown, I found myself with a headache.

But more importantly

"Where am I?"

When I awoke I was in total darkness, yet my eyes were slowly getting used to the absence of light.

"What the...?"

After a few moments, a faint glow caught my attention.

Opposite me, a door emitted a timid light that barely illuminated the room.

Curious, I approached and noticed a number engraved on the door: the number 1.
And just above it the number 101

"Why does this look so familiar?" I murmured

The door itself is nothing special, but I keep getting a feeling of already seen, even though I'm certain I've never been here before.

[Would you like to start the tutorial?]

Just as I was pondering the mysterious door, the quersas' voice snaps me out of my thoughts.

"Is that you Kersas ?"

[Do you want to start the tutorial?]

Instead of answering me, she just repeated the sentence from earlier.

"Yes," I replied, shaking my head.

Due to the fact that she didn't even obey her owner, William, not to send her into the novel, so it would surprise me if she could listen to me.

A few moments later, a window similar to that of a video game appeared before my eyes, accompanied by a long text.

Taking the time to read it carefully, here's a simple summary of what it says:

I've been given the power of the system thanks to my "author" skill.

This skill apparently allows me to obtain information about myself by using one of its functionalities.

"Let's give it a try."

After analyzing my statistics, only one name catches my attention

"F-fari!?"

Fari is the name of a clan unable to use magic.

That would explain my lack of mana

"Also..."

It's a clan decimated by the empire because of a simple request for independence that the empire considers an act of treason.

At the time of the attack, all the children and their parents of the Fari clan were grouped together and hidden in one place.

However, the clan leader is aware that sooner or later the empire's men will find them.

So, to save the new generation, the chief revealed an ancestral secret

A ritual to open the door of the sanctuary

Once inside, those present will face individual tests.

If they fail, only death awaits them.
On the other hand, if they succeed, they will be rewarded with immense power and will be teleported far away.
