The 6 Trials Of Hell (pt. 1)

(Kurian)- "So now that we know each other's names, when do I start going up this tower?".

(Headon)- "Well of course you first have to pass the test to truly start climbing the tower" (showing off his signature smile).

As soon as Headon was done talking he (it?) pointed towards a giant cage that took up the entire right side of the room. And if you looked closely you would see that beyond the giant bars it looked like an ocean was there but not quite an ocean at the same time.

(Kurian)- "What is that strange substance?".

(Headon)- "That is divine water or what it is commonly known as shinsu. It makes up everything in the tower such as air, water, food, and basically everything in the tower is made up of shinsu".

(Kurian)- "So everything in this tower is made up of shinsu… hmm".

(Kurian)- "I have a few more of my questi…"

(Headon)- "Ah, ah, ah, I have already said enough if you want to know more you must climb the tower and gain the answers you seek yourself".

There was silence as nothing was spoken for a full 5 minutes.

(Kurian)- "Fine then when do we start".

(Headon)- "All you have to do is break that stone in the center of the cage".

(Kurian)- "Cage?".

(Headon)- "Ah, yes I almost forgot you have to survive the divine fish first. And let me tell you it is quite pissed as it lost its prey earlier so it will probably not fall for the same trick twice".

(Kurian)- "Am I allowed to kill this giant tuna fish?".

SILENCE

(Headon)- "Hahahahaha, you truly are interesting to call the divine fish a tuna fish truly. I don't know if it's arrogance or if you truly are just that strong".

(Headon)- "But yes, you can kill it if you have the ability to".

(Kurian)- "I see. Then I shall go ahead and start".

As Kurian started to walk towards the giant cage with the divine fish inside, once it heard footsteps coming towards it, it immediately saw Kurain walking towards it and the creepiest smile appeared on the fish's face.

Kurian stopped at the entrance to the cage, and stood there for a few seconds then he took another step and was thru but as soon as he entered the divine water his body changed. If one were to look at him now they would see no difference but for those sensitive to shinsu they would be shocked, no, horrified.

As the shinsu around him went inside his body a bloody aura started to appear around Kurian, and then the entire ocean of divine water started turning red, or to be more accurate, it turned into blood.

And everything that came in contact with it disintegrated and also turned into blood. It was a horrifying image as the divine fish which thought that it could finally have food was screaming for its life as the blood turned shinsu started to touch it.

It tried to flee but it couldn't as it lost its entire lower half in 5 seconds then another 5 seconds later there was no more screaming as the divine fish no longer seems to exist. Then the blood shinsu started getting closer to the pitch black orb in the center of the giant cage, as soon as the blood water made contact with the orb it started to corrode then cracks started to appear on it, then it slowly crumbled away.

When Headon saw this scene he didn't know how to respond. All he could do was stare at Kurian with an odd look.

(Kurian)- "So can I head to the next floor?".

SILENCE

(Headon)- "Ahm! Of course but before that let me not forget to give you this"

As Headon said that a tiny black ball appeared in his hand, then he threw it towards Kurian and as soon as it got close to him it stopped and hovered before him.

(Kurian)- "What is this?".

(Headon)- "This is a pocket, it will allow you to understand and communicate with the other climbers in the tower. Now just press your hand on it so it can connect with you".

When Headon was done talking Kurian put his hand out and touched the pocket and it glowed for a second then it stopped.

(Kurian)- "Is that it?"

(Headon)- "You can make it invisible by saying invisible mode and it will be out of sight".

(Kurian)- "Invisible mode".

The pocket then glowed again then disappeared before his eyes.

(Headon)- "Well now that that's done, I will send you to the next floor irregular, or should I say Emperor Kurian" (as he flashed an evil grin).

Then light flashed all around Kurian and then he was gone as if he was never there. And as soon as he was gone a laugh could be heard and it got louder and louder as time went and 2 minutes later it stopped.

(Headon)- "Hahaha, truly a very interesting ability, but I know you are hiding something more".

-SECOND FLOOR-

As soon as the light flashed it disappeared as quickly as it came and Kurian found himself in an open field of grass and a few small hills. And as he looked around and was about to start exploring the area.

BZZZZZ- MIKE TEST! MIKE TEST! ONE! TWO! THREE!

HELLO EVERYONE!

I WOULD LIKE TO WELCOME ALL REGULARS TO THE SECOND FLOOR OF THE TOWER!

OR BETTER KNOWN AS THE 6 TRIALS OF HELL!

AS FOR WHY IT IS CALLED THIS, BECAUSE YOU WILL BE GOING THRU 6 HELLISH TRIALS TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THAT YOU ARE WORTHY OF CLIMBING THE TOWER!

NOW THAT ALL OF THAT HAS BEEN SAID, I WILL NOW BE STARTING THE FIRST TRIAL OF THE 6 TRIALS OF HELL!

THE FIRST BEING A BATTLE ROYAL!

NOW FOR THE RULES OF THE FIRST TRIAL THERE ARE EIGHT-HUNDRED OF YOU ALL TOGETHER AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE THAT EIGHT-HUNDRED INTO TWO-HUNDRED WITHIN TWO HOURS! (yes I did mean 200)

YOU ARE ALOUD TO USE ANY MEANS NECESSARY TO ACHIEVE THIS!

WELL THEN EVERYONE TRY YOUR BEST TO SURVIVE!

As soon as the announcement finished all hell broke through as within just thirty seconds of starting over fifty people had died. This was truly a blood bath.

(Kurian)- "What an interesting name for a test, truly striking fear into the hearts of all".

He said in a sarcastic tone.

But just as he finished speaking an arrow was flying towards him or more specifically his head. And almost in an instant the arrow 'pierced' through his head, and he fell to the floor.

(MOB CHARACTER)- "Hahaha what stupid fellow and here I thinking that those people of the royal family were strong but they are simply to weak or maybe I am just to strong! Hahaha".

But as soon as the lizard-like creature finished a shing sound could be heard then its body was split in half, with a smile still on the creature's face.

SHING

(Kurian)- "What an interesting creature it looks like a night beast but it possesses a 'higher' intelligence than normal night creatures".

The arrow that had 'pierced' his head was on the ground shattered into a hundred pieces and if you looked at his hand one of the golden claws was a purple glow with strange words circling around it, almost like it was enchanted.

(Kurian)- "To think I would be able to actually do this, it truly was not just my imagination".

-FLASHBACK-

We see Kurian walking into the cage with the divine fish and as soon as he entered it was as if time had stopped and in that moment knowledge on these strange abilities came to him. Things such as what he did to the divine fish from before the 'Blood-Domain' which turned everything within a three mile radius into blood if he wills it.

And another one which allows him to enchant items of course there is a limit though such as he must use blood essence as experience points instead. (1 being of any type = 1 blood essence)

There were quite a few abilities but most of them had to do with blood, of course that was not a problem as he was the blood god if he didn't have any abilities related to blood that would ruin his image.

But not all of them were and one of these new abilities (not really new just upgraded) was his body, as he was half pigman half human he had a physic that was several times stronger than the average human to be specific ten times stronger.

And now that he was emerged into shinsu and it reinforced him it was now one-hundred times stronger and would keep growing with him, and even if by someway someone got through his defenses he would heal almost instantly.

Truly making him a demi-immortal.

-End of Flashback-

(Kurian)- "Now I can try out this power and test the limits and I don't have to hold back while doing it".

And then he vanished.
