I painted a blue star on the grass and performed the hand gestures. This was the ritual for increased strength. The star glowed, as did my hands. Then, a fly flew above the star. Oh no. The ritual's been messed up. I watched as my left hand faded away from existence. I panicked. The star turned red. Okay, there's a way to fix this. I need an Enix Gem. They can be found in demon lions. I went into my house, grabbed my sword, and ventured to a cave that was rumored to have one. I arrived at he mouth of the cave, already seeing a sleeping lion's silhouette. I walked toward it quietly. It lifted its head. It saw me and sprang up. I rushed at it, aiming for the temple. It ran at me. My blade pierced right into the head. I let go of my sword. I jumped back to avoid it. It stood for a second before collapsing. It dissolved into liquid, and among the liquid was the gem.
Back home, I placed the gem on the star. My left hand faded into existence. I went to a rock about half my size and pushed it to test this strength. It felt as though I was pushing feathers.
