[Age 8: Influenced by the adults, the young Borisin cubs of the settlement constantly cause trouble for you. They call you a 'half-breed,' and you are furious...]
[1. To hell with these brats!]
[2. You need time to grow. For now, you will endure.]
Looking at the options, Victor fell into thought.
Bullying is the kind of thing that happens either zero times or countless times. The more you back down, the more aggressive they become.
Besides, he is now a Borisin, a savage race that highly reveres the law of the jungle.
No one will sympathize with him. Forget being bullied—even if he were killed, he'd have deserved it. After all, who told him to be 'weak'?
In the Borisin mindset, the weak are only fit to become blood-food for the strong.
Of course, there was another reason...
'To hell with these brats!'
This option brought him a sense of satisfaction.
Before transmigrating, he had suffered greatly at the hands of brats. If he had to be bullied by brats after transmigrating, then his journey here would have been for nothing.
Victor decisively chose to strike hard.
[You appear thin and weak, but due to the powerful bloodline within you, your physical constitution far surpasses that of an ordinary Borisin.]
[You beat the group of brats to a pulp, and even 'accidentally' killed the three ringleaders.]
[With three cubs dead at once, the situation escalated. The fathers of the three cubs came looking for trouble.]
[According to the Borisin way of thinking, as the one who was ganged up on, killing three of your attackers is not only acceptable but would even make you a hero. Conversely, your opponents would become the laughingstock of the entire hunting pack.]
[However, that is only under normal circumstances. Due to your father's 'favoritism,' they were given the chance to challenge you—you alone against the three of them.]
[Besieged by the three Borisin, you managed to kill one and severely injure another before being sneak-attacked from behind by the third.]
[You have died.]
Victor frowned but said nothing.
When he chose to kill the brats, he had already anticipated this outcome.
He just didn't expect the system to pull such a dirty trick on him. He didn't die at the hands of the brats, but instead fell victim to the classic 'beat the young, and the old will come.'
Since he didn't meet the minimum requirements, Victor gained nothing from this simulation.
Without much delay, Victor started the simulation again.
Soon, the simulation reached the previous critical choice.
Since one path was a dead end, Victor could only suppress his annoyance and choose the other option.
'Is this damn system trying to train me to be a sly old fox...'
Victor couldn't help but think.
Unexpectedly, the system had another 'surprise' for him.
[You choose to endure for now, waiting for the right time to grow.]
[Your concession only made them more aggressive. During one assault, a young Borisin cub took the opportunity to sneak up behind you and struck the back of your head with a rock.]
[You died again.]
Damn it! You're not even giving me a chance to live, are you!
Victor flared up in anger!
But his anger was fleeting.
Getting this top-tier trait really isn't that easy.
Thinking it over, both 'Battlefield Command (Blue)' and 'Glutton (Green)' were traits with great potential, but they required time to become effective in the later stages.
However, this simulation clearly didn't give him enough time to develop from the start.
Therefore, he should choose traits that could quickly increase his combat power.
In other words, his initial direction in selecting traits was fundamentally wrong.
Now that he had found the root of the problem, he naturally had to correct it.
So, this time, Victor chose to start over from the very beginning, preparing to select his traits anew.
After he chose to start over, the trait list refreshed, displaying a new set of options.
Except for the unchanging 'Perfect Bloodline (Gold)', most of the traits had changed.
[Slaughter Expert (Blue): You are an expert in killing. Your slaughtering techniques have been refined through countless trials and have become instinctual. No matter what it is—be it a piece of paper, a pen, or even a melon seed shell—it can become a deadly weapon in your hands. Of course, this also includes all parts of your own body.]
[Swift as the Wind (White): Your movements are as fast as a gale.]
[Focused (White): No matter what you do, your concentration is highly focused.]
[Hunter (Green): In a 'hunt,' the roles of hunter and prey can be reversed. You are proficient in various 'hunting' techniques, allowing you to switch to the role of the hunter at any time.]
[Born of the Sword (White): You are a natural expert with sword-type weapons. Any weapon with the 'Sword' attribute will exert its maximum power in your hands.] (Collect all seven Dragon Ba... cough cough! Seven traits of the same series, such as 'Saber, Spear, Axe, Bow, Hammer, Staff,' can be fused into 'Weapon Master (Gold)'.)
Victor unhesitatingly chose 'Slaughter Expert (Blue)'; this trait would clearly provide a massive boost to his combat power.
Next, Victor hesitated between 'Hunter (Green)' and 'Born of the Sword (White)'.
Normally, one would definitely choose the higher-quality trait, but 'Born of the Sword' was clearly a rare trait with extremely high growth potential.
Furthermore, the description for 'Hunter' indicated that the trait primarily enhanced tracking and counter-tracking abilities.
After comprehensive consideration, Victor still chose 'Born of the Sword (White)'.
After selecting his traits, Victor immediately started the simulation.
[Age 0: You were born.]
[You are a hybrid of a Borisin and a Foxian. An unknown mutation has occurred in you, and you possess the most perfect bloodline.]
[Age 1: From a young age, you displayed astonishing combat talent.]
[Age 2: Your talent moved your father. He wants to forge you into the sharpest blade under his command. To control you, he has imprisoned your mother.]
[Although you possess powerful talent, you need time to grow. You can only choose to endure and submit to your father's arrangements.]
Victor's eyes lit up. The simulation's plot had changed!
[Age 3: To train you into the most powerful battle slave, your father subjected you to incredibly harsh training. While other cubs were playing and roughhousing, your only playmates were your instructor's fists and various weapons.]
[Age 5: Your combat power has advanced by leaps and bounds, already on par with the ordinary warriors of the hunting pack.]
[Age 8: Your physique is now comparable to that of an adult Borisin warrior. Almost everyone who sees you for the first time can't help but exclaim, 'He's f*cking 8 years old!?']
[A dozen or so young Borisin cubs teamed up to ambush you, but you single-handedly inflicted heavy casualties on them, killing and wounding many.]
[The fathers of the five deceased cubs wanted revenge. Your father did not stop them; instead, he arranged for you to fight them to the death.]
[You understand his intentions perfectly. After years of training, he now wants to test your mettle.]
[After a brutal battle, you defeated them. You cut off their heads, which became your trophies.]
[Seeing this, your father roared with laughter.]
[He believed the blade he had been forging was nearly complete!]
