"I actually have a talent with extraordinary abilities. How come I never felt like I had anything extraordinary about me before? Also, why is my magic attribute zero?"

[System notification: The host's transmigration is a case of body swapping. The body has been baptized by the power of time and space, gaining extraordinary talent, and the body has regressed to the age of eleven.]

[However, since the host does not possess magic power, they can only acquire magic power through cultivation or special items.]

However, please don't worry, the newbie gift pack will help you solve this problem.

"Then hurry up and open the newbie gift pack!"

Chapter Two: New Player Gift Pack. Log in to the game!

[Open the newbie gift pack. Congratulations, host, you have obtained 'Treasure F: The Clever Husband 3'.]

【Twelve Trials: A Noble Phantasm from Fate/stay night, which transforms the user's body into a tenacious armor, making them immune to attacks of rank B or lower (in this book, a rank B attack is equivalent to the power of an armor-piercing shell).

It has the effect of automatically reviving the body after death, and it stores enough for 11 revivals.

This means that the owner will not die completely unless killed 12 times in a row, and can recover the number of times they can be revived by replenishing their life energy.

In addition, whenever the owner is attacked, their body will increase its resistance to that attack until it becomes immune.

(Since this Noble Phantasm lacks the appearance of a weapon or armor, the system has modified it into a talent.)

[Manifestation Times: Allows you to materialize items from the game into this world.]

"Is this the solution you were talking about? That's impressive!"

"Doesn't that mean that if I give myself a big bite, even Voldemort won't be able to kill me?"

[Please calm down, host. Different people have varying degrees of mastery over the same spell. Furthermore, as the Dark Lord, his dark magic certainly extends beyond Avada Kedavra. He could easily kill you 12 times in a row.]

[Please first integrate the twelve trials, host.]

"That's true, but in any case, I now have the means to protect myself in this world."

"System, integrate the twelve trials."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zicomo felt his body begin to heat up.

Gradually, the burning sensation turned into a scorching pain.

Zicomo knew this was a physical modification, and in order not to wake the Granger family, he had to endure it and remain silent.

Fortunately, the renovation went quickly and was finished in no time.

Zicomo clenched his fists, feeling every muscle in his body brimming with explosive power.

He really wanted to find a bull to test his current strength, but the current conditions did not allow it.

You can only open the system panel to view your own data.

[Host: Zicomo]

[Talent: Exceptional Aptitude, Twelve Trials]

[Physique: 28]

【Spirit: 15】

[Magic Power: 10 (Level of a newly graduated wizard)]

[Current Game: None]

[Number of Manifestations: 3]

Backpack Items: None

[Evaluation: You now possess a certain level of self-defense capabilities in this world. Begin your game journey!]

"Wait, why did my physique only improve by so little? And my spirit didn't change at all? I remember Hercules was incredibly strong!"

The Twelve Trials are a treasure for enhancing the body; they do not directly enhance the host's spirit. Only if the host suffers a mental attack will their spiritual power be slowly increased.

Hercules' strength came from constantly growing stronger through battle. If the host wishes to become stronger, they can utilize the 'Twelve Trials' to increase resistance after being attacked, thus improving themselves by continuously taking hits.

"Hmm, then forget it. I don't have a masochistic M-type."

"Let's take a look at my first game first. System, start drawing games."

[Instruction received, commencing execution]

[Successful draw. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the game "Elden Ring"]

"Hey, I didn't expect to have such a connection with the old man's ring. System, let me enter the game and take a look."

[Entering the Elden Ring Road]

[Please begin character creation.]

"Do I need to create a character?"

Yes, the host's entry into the game is only a matter of consciousness, so a character needs to be created as a vehicle to move around in the game.

That's good, since he looks like a child now, and he probably can't handle many of the weapons in the game.

"Then system, just create a body for me when I'm grown up, based on my current appearance, like when I'm 18 years old."

Zicomo is really bad at character customization.

As mentioned before, he has mild face blindness. He had tried creating his own character's face before, but afterwards, he always asked other players for help with character creation in games.

[Host request received, role creation complete]

Please select a profession.

[System notification: Talents can be carried over into the game. While death in the game is not a true death, the sensation of pain is real.]

[Each death has a 24-hour cooldown before resurrection.]

[When the host is on either side of the game or reality, the time flow ratio is 3:1 compared to the other side.]

"Ok?"

Upon seeing the system's prompt, Zicomo, who had been torn between the swordsman and the hero, immediately made up his mind and chose the stargazer.

That is, the profession of a mage.

Some might ask why Zicomo didn't choose the Knight, a class known for its high health.

Please, this is a Soulslike game by Miyazaki.

What's the unique feature of his game? The BOSS can kill you in three hits.

Zicomo said that if he chooses a ranged mage character, he can deal massive damage and kite them to death as long as they can't hit him.

Moreover, he has twelve trials. When enemies attack him, the rate at which he loses health will slow down until he becomes immune to enemy attacks.

Then he can even pull out a melee weapon and experience the joy of being a melee mage.

Thanks to the system's newbie gift pack, the game difficulty was reduced from Hell level to Normal level.

[Choose your class, enter the game]

…………

"Ding! Ding..."

Accompanied by the sound of Queen Marika striking metal in the cutscene, Zicomo's immersive gaming journey begins.

Zicomo opened his eyes and was greeted by the familiar, dimly lit, and dilapidated church: the Royal Hall.

A woman dressed as a witch lies dead on the right front.

Before her was written: "Even though the guidance has long been broken, please become the King of Elden!"

He knew that it was his personal finger witch, a guide-like being, equivalent to Paimon the Traveler.

During his first playthrough, he didn't know who killed her, so he went to research a lot of information.

He suspected two people: one was the limb-splitting nobleman guarding the door, since the finger witch had died inside the royal hall, and the limb-splitting nobleman was guarding outside.

The other one is the white-masked Vanley. When Zikomo came out of the Cave of Learning (the tutorial), this guy immediately said: Unfortunately, you don't have a witch with you.

Especially the aristocrat who had his limbs extended, who was given a plot-driven death right from the start.

Zicomo wondered if he could just kill him directly now that the Twelve Trials were around.

He opened the game panel to check his status.
