Legend of the Immortal

Monarch God

Trial Area 1
3rd Person POV

Bell walked in and an avatar of the [Prideful Ruler] showed itself.

"Hmph! Weak fool! Enter here and die a donkey's death! First trial! Trial by fire, traverse the floor covered by fire even the flames of Hell cannot compare to! The number of people who have died to this test has surpassed the biggest number you can even think of!"

"Pffft, only flames? Might as well hand over the power before this "fool" makes you the fool." Bell remarks nonchalantly.

"HMPH! Go on then, enter. Let's see if you can even last a second! BWHAHAHA!" The avatar replied in a condescending voice at Bell's remarks.

"Very well, let this grandaddy show you his might! Be careful! You may be burnt by my power!" Bell says arrogantly before stepping in.

"Y-y-y-you!" The avatar stuttered, this was the first time he had been talked back to this extent!

His pride would not allow it!

When people saw him, they would bow unconditionally and would be willing to give up everything to lick his foot!

Yet...this infuriating boy dare insult him?

"Good....good...let's see how long this idiot lasts..." then, the avatar takes a look at his progress before spitting out his saliva.

Bell entered the room and immediately felt searing heat almost overwhelming him.

"Tsk, looks like I underestimated the power of these fires. [Superhuman]! Cleanse my impurities and bestow unto me godly power!" Bell spat out.

Immediately, the fires seemed to have been rendered completely harmless by [Superhuman].

Then, with this, he easily passed the first trial within a minute of his entering.

After coming out, he arrogantly shouted out,"OI! Bastard! What 'stronger than Hell's flames' bullsh*t was that? It didn't even feel hot! I was freezing in there!"

The avatar appeared in front of Bell, clearly enraged and shocked by his performance.

"Y-you! How did you do it so fast? It's impossible for someone to be this resistant to fire! Even I cannot stay there for too long unless I want to die! What sort of witchcraft did you use? Answer me!" The avatar spat out, his pride clearly hurt by this heaven-defying moment.

"Have you thought of the fact that you are too weak to be compared to a single hair on my head? HAH! Highest immunity to fire my foot! Hurry up! Next test! Lest you feel you want to submit to me?"

"Stop pushing it! I can instantly kill you right now!"

"I'd like to see you even try to cut off a strand of hair of mine."

"BAH! Talking to you leaves a bitter taste with my mouth. Talk no more. Second trial, trial of savagery. This test is the simplest yet the hardest of the three. All you need to do is kill the single most important person in your life in the most savage way possible!"

Bell's heart chilled to the bone.

He entered the second room and there he was...

"Father..." he whispered in an almost inaudible voice.

He dropped his sword and went to his father's side whispering,"Father...you're not dead..."

His father's eyes turned towards him and said,"You...are not my son. I never asked for you. You were the cause of my and your mother's death. Get out of my sight. You disgust me."
