Chapter 353: Newborn

As I lay in the arms of this newborn body's father, I tried to steel myself for the path ahead. Gauntlet of Suffering - the words echoed ominously in my mind. This was going to be the greatest challenge I'd ever faced.

I couldn't help but shed a mental tear of pure fear towards the future. It quickly became evident that I would be trapped in the body of an extremely abused child for over a decade's worth of time.

As a primordial who was meant to live for millions of years and lead his own species toward greatness, experiencing such diverse and different perspectives could be beneficial. However, I firmly believe that it was too soon in my case. I didn't even spend three months of my life as a primordial yet and I would be forced to live a trauma-filled childhood for over a decade.

Anyhow, I could only accept reality for what it was. Even if I could get out of the test and go back to 'reality' I would just get blasted by a fire spell the moment I returned.
