I started to climb the stairs.
When I took my first step, I felt nothing. It was the sa for the second, third and so on. It wasn't until the hundredth step that I first felt a light tingle.
Even then, it was almost negligible. I felt nothing, so I continued to climb on.
Every hundred steps I could feel that the strain started to increase. After five hundred, it started to increase every ten steps and after reaching seven hundred, it beca every five steps.
It was not like the strain didn't increase for every step taken but I didn't feel much difference.
The real trial started after I reached the nine hundredth step.
From then onwards, for every step taken, I can feel the stinging pain caused to my soul.
This trial was as I thought it would be. This was testing my soul but for what purpose? I was able to reach this far because my soul energy was very high.
Months ago, I didn't know if my soul energy was high or average but as started to take the stairs. a small clarity. I could understand that my soul energy is pretty high when compared to others. I don't know if there are other geniuses or what the soul energy would be for soone who is at a higher rank than but I know that I possess strength far beyond what I should at this point.
With such soul strength, I didn't feel much but that changed after the nine hundred steps. The difficulty increased by a lot. Each step felt as if I had taken two or three hundred steps.
The closer I ca to the thousand steps, the more the pressure on was.
It was quite difficult but I managed to reach the top of the stairs, which was the thousandth step.
Hmm, there seems to be a palace and a fort in front of but I am not sure whether it is real or not.
While I was looking at the palace/fort before and contemplating about it, the chanical notification ca announcing the end of the trial.
You have completed the Trial of Soul perfectly.
You have gained 100,000 Soul Energy.
Huh?
Is that it?
There was no extra reward or wait...the reward is different. It is directly adding 100,000 points and that's it. Aah, I thought I might get a 100x bonus like the other three.
From what I read in other stories, improving the soul is the most troubleso thing as there are not many things that can do so. It doesn't matter anyway for as I have other ways to do so.
The only thing stopping was whether it was good to do so at this point or not.
I an it's the soul and I have no knowledge regarding that. If any body part of gets injured, there are healing potions and healers that can help but what about soul injuries?
Is there anyone who can heal an injured soul?
Are there any items that are capable of doing so?
I don't know. So it's best that I don't experint with them without knowing more about it.
You can now enter the Nexus.
Huh?
So it's called Nexus and it seems I can enter. I believe whatever the secrets this realm holds, I can find them there.
Before that let's check my status screen once more.

Everything looks good.
Sprint increased by a level, probably because of the Trial of Agility. There are two resistances that improved and that was a bonus that I gained from the Trial of Agility.
The other trials didn't improve any skills, probably because I wanted to end them quickly and did so. To achieve that I used the best skills which are very high. These are skills I presu won't increase easily anymore.
The trials are weak for but I know that they are very strong and probably no one can achieve a win.
My STR, END, and AGI now appear decent but my DEX still looks bad and that was sothing I need to think bout later, in addition to finding ways to improve those skill levels without others finding out about that.
Well, no one knows that I have so many skills. So if they see finding ways to improve them, then they would co to the conclusion that I most certainly have those skills. if not why would anyone take an interest in improving other skills, with the limited amount of ti one has?
Anyway, that is sothing I need to think about later. Now, let's enter the Nexus and see what it is all about.
