Reset: DPS to Support?!

".....!!!"

Quickly as the ground that held his foot broke off, Shinto abruptly lost balanced as he swayed to the side.

Shinto hastily tried to regain balance, however, the loss of balance was to abrupt, thus he fell just as he tried to get a gripped on himself.

"Tch...!"

Clicking his tongue, Shinto quickly pulled out his sword as he thrust it in towards the ledge of the mountains, allowing him to stop his fall.

As he swayed left and right whilst gripping tightly onto his sword, Shinto turned his attention up towards the narrow cliff's path as he scanned the area in order to see if there was any way he could get back up.

Though... Looking at the situation he is in, the only way to successfully get back up onto the pathways without falling is a movement skill that allows you to jump high up into the sky or a platform in between himself and the ledge.

But he had neither of those options. Although he may have a leap movement skill, it isn't high enough for him to be able to reach the ledge without any problems. He had to be precise in his calculations in order to get the right angle to jump up and barely reach the ledge.

Finding only one option as he scanned the area above him, he averted his gaze downwards, where he sees the evergreen forest of Galevn, if he fell, it would result in instant death. Well without something to break his fall at least, but don't count on it as the branches and leaves of the trees in the forest is extremely thorny, so it wouldn't be able to save him from the fall.

And sadly there weren't any sources of water as far as he could see that he could land in.

'So it's only that option...'

He glanced over to the top again and sighed. Quickly taking a deep breath as he calmed his mind.

Soon after, he swiftly swayed himself to the left and to the right quickly gaining momentum as he focused his attention onto the ledge... He continued gaining the speed as he lets go onto the sword, quickly moving his body upwards.

Just as he leapt, he hurriedly grabbed onto the sword's hilt and pulled it out, then quickly activating a skill.

[ Crescent Dawn Lv 7 ]

A movement skill in which it allows the user to leap higher than normal whilst increasing the user's speed by 20% and the damage dealt while in the sky by 25%.

Activating the sky as he makes his way up, he successfully held onto the ledge of the narrow path,

"Phew..."

Shinto let out a breath of relief as he stabilizes himself, putting force into his body as he moved it upwards in order to place himself back onto the pathway.

Though as he did that... a crack was heard.

"S-Shit...!"

Shinto cursed, belatedly noticing the almost broken ledge and just as he was about to do something about, the ledge broke off.

And thus... Shinto dropped in one fell swoop.

In the situation he's in, it was a lost cause to try to save himself. He couldn't fly nor did he had the capabilities or utility needed to be able to magically save himself from the fall.

There was nothing he could do about this. All he could do was await death's door.

'How long was it since I died, two years ago in-game time?' He closed his eyes as he thought to himself while bracing himself for the hands of death.

...

For what seems to be an eternity of a wait for death, Shinto suddenly heard a loud noise, soon following after, he felt as if gravity is pulling him down.

'...What?'

Feeling a sensation chilling embrace that surrounds his body, Shinto opened his eyes, to see the body of water which surrounded him. He was underwater.

'W-What...? I'm underwater...?'

Shinto thought to himself, how could there be a body of water here? Is he disillusioning? The last time he checked, there wasn't anything related to water below him!

Feeling very confused and doubtful, he glanced over to the top, to see a shining ambience of light which seeps into the body of water and not wanting to stay under here anymore, he stabilized himself as he swam up towards the ray of light that shone towards this place.

He continued swimming up, finally reaching to the surface, where he was greeted by the bright sun. He felt awestruck at the sight of the sun as if it had been a long time since he saw it. But all of this happened in a matter of minutes. To Shinto however, it felt like forever.

Staring at the sun for a short while, he averted his gaze away as he quickly took a glance around his surroundings.

His surroundings... It was very unfamiliar. Shinto hurriedly scanned the area to figure out where he is, though recalling his memories, he never seen this part of the forest before.

The evergreen forest of Gaveln? He wasn't in it. Reminiscence of the thorny trees of the forest was surrounding the place, but that's all he could recognize about the forest, everything else was the unknown to him.

The body of water which he was in, was what seemed to be a lake of some sort from what he could tell.

'...A lake?' he thought to himself. 'I've never seen anything like this here in Galven...' he continued scanning the area, then he saw something—An entrance to a cavern of some sort, with many strange obelisks at its front, caught his eyes.

"What...? A cavern...?"

Bewildered at the sight, he swam over towards land, as he made his way over to the entrance of the cavern.

The cavern's entrance, with four obelisks standing at it's front and a pillar of some sort at the middle of them, it was like a reminiscence of an ancient ruin, with moss covering each of these structures.

"Could this be a dungeon?"

Shinto felt a thrill in his heart, excitement. It's been a while since he last felt this feeling, he smiled as he quickly made his over towards the cavern's entrance.

Stepping foot onto the stone grounds... He received a sudden alert in his system logs.
