Shujin-sensei will always be an icon to me. Every day with him is a breath of fresh air, be it an illusion, a system or reality. You’ve given me a new reserve of strength, and trust me when I say that I delivered.
Stage after stage, brawl after brawl, Daemon after Daemon, I fought, each fight proving tougher than the last. It seemed the system had only registered feats shown within the memories of the Space Core himself and the Player partaking in the system’s string of training curricula.
I barely defeated Ihann, the final challenger of the gauntlet. I guess I have him to thank for holding back so much during the invasion. If not for his persona for playing with his food, I guess this would have been a level that I would not have been able to pass.
I still wonder what exactly would happen if I genuinely died in this system. Would it be for real? Or would I just start the training stages all over again? Oh well, I’d rather not find out.
