Chapter 02: Rules of Engagement A note from Bragi Fire please leave some comments and thoughts First, that the start point is always the same. The face on the mud. If only he could change that. It is not a good feeling waking up to that Second, there is some rules to this. Henrik doesn’t know what it is yet, but he believes if he survives long enough he would find out the rule. Of course, by now he has quite a good idea what is happening to him He seems to have the ability to return back to the point before he dies. But how was this point, or what he called checkpoint is determined is something he did not yet understand. This mechanic of dying and then reviving also did not explain anything to him. As natural as the mud on his face That is how he described the mechanic of this revival. It is like some kind of natural laws He also thought that maybe he would have some kind of powers or abilities. After all, he was an avid reader of online novels before Maybe he would have some abilities like magic like in some Japanese isekai novels he had read before. Unfortunately, no, he did not have such thing. No magical power or divine strength. Then he thought maybe like some Korean or Chinese novels where he got some kind of game like system where he could level up and raise his stats. No, he doesn’t have that either. What he does have is this ability to die and live repeatedly Like he is stuck in a loop. And unless he survives, he probably would never escape this loop. He doesn’t know yet whether these loops would grant him anything or whether he would have any benefit in escaping the loop. Or maybe this loop itself is a reward for him Because judging from his initial reaction, without this loop system, he would have already died in the ditch And considering his lack of survival skill, he would never survive that long anyway without this kind of looping mechanic Thirdly, the stick is not the best weapon. He had learned that the hard way And he also has some other options by now “I just need to time it right” he thought to himself as he got up. It is still the same scenery. There is mud on his face and near his mouth. But even that disgust has long faded away. He has done this nine times Right now, he is very calm. The first few times he was still panicked. But after nine times, it is like he is in a game trial where he could be calm. By now he is quite sure, even if he dies, he will just get revived again He now has the leisure to look around. “It would take three minutes and thirty-seven second before that squire would come here” Henrik doesn’t know if that person is a squire. But he already met a knight. And that person who had killed him does not seem like a knight. He has a sword and he has armours, but the sword is not as sharp, and his armours is not as complete as the arms and armours of the knights he had met before If he times it just right, some knight in a few meters away from here would have his sword disarmed and that sword would be flung a few feet away from his original position of revival. Henrik himself doesn’t know who has the capability to fight against a knight and force that knight to have his sword being deflected so far away. But that is not his concern. What he needs to know is where and when the sword is going to land. On his fourth try, he did not run and he look around and watch everything and try to remember anything useful. Of course, that in turn make him an easy target for that person who kills him. On the fifth try, he managed to get that sword just right and then he fought against that person. But he lasted only three moves before that person cut off his throat A squire. That was and is and currently would be his enemy. It is understandable that he would lose. He is probably a peasant. And he has no experience of fighting with a sword. He did not know how to deflect, how to strike effectively and how to dodge efficiently. Not to mention, he himself is not a large man. And his strength is not particularl
