This world became like this one hundred years ago in the year 2023, it first started when a portal appeared in the skies and poured out extraterrestrials and demons from the lowest faction of hell to raid and cause chaos on the earth.
Nevertheless heroes rose from the shadows and saved the earth from that doom, but the chaos did not end.Every single day more than one thousand dungeon appears in each country, it is the job of the heroes to venture into these dungeons and slay the monsters inside.Currently, the richest people in the world are heroes especially the high ranking ones.'To become a hero and get the chance to venture into Dungeons, I must first get my identity registered in CGH but who knows, they might not even accept me because of my identity but there is no harm in trying.' Liam thought to himself.He used the last $5 he had on him to board a Cab to Frieya City, the capital city of Uldra Nation and also the place where CGH is located, it wasn't that far from the hospital.The car stopped in front of a beautiful dome shaped glasshouse of enormous size, look like at it was like looking at more than ten streets merged together.He stared at the structure for a few seconds contemplating in his heart but then he shook his head washing off all the negative thoughts.He walked toward the entrance, a scanner on the door scanned his face to see if he was really human or a monster taking the form of a human.It opened automatically after confirming that he was human. Liam stepped his feet inside the large building and was shocked with the beauty of the inside.Nevertheless his entrance soon draw the attention of others, they stared at him weirdly."Another trash, sigh when will all these trash stop coming to CGH. They are wasting our useful time.""Look at his clothes, it's easy to tell that he is one of those street beggars. Send him out immediately, I can't be under the same roof with such a disgusting person! Humph."Those people talking behind his back did not even care if he heard then or not, they didn't even try to lower their voice.They looked at Liam with so much disgust in their eyes, to them he was just a beggar. The fact that he was wearing torn clothes even proves them right.Just then the door opened and a young man the same age as Liam walked in, he was wearing branded clothes worth thousands of dollars.Two guards with big body build walked behind him."Isn't that Jason Larey the son of the blazing sun king?""It's him, to think that he would come to CGH today"Jason acted smugly when he heard everyone singing his name his eyes turned towards Liam and saw him standing with a calm look on his face.He observed his clothes and hissed!"Send that bastard out of this place." He said to his guards, they nodded their head respectfully and walked toward Liam."Young Man, leave immediately young master Jason can't be in the same roof as you leave peacefully or we would be forced to send you out our own way."Liam tilted his head toward the two men with large build, it was only then that he noticed Jason Larey, he knew who he was immediately."I am here to register, Why should I leave?." Liam gave his short answer."Humph, register my foot. Young master Jason is here to register as well, you don't expect him to register at the same time with a beggar like you.""I was here before him and I'm not even complaining, if he wants to register first he can go ahead I'll wait and register after.""Who do you think you are? Hope you know who his father is? The blazing king of Uldra Nation. Better do as we say and avoid future trouble."Liam sighed inwardly, he looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him with disgust in their eyes.'If I keep arguing further, I won't even get the chance to register, if I don't register there would be no way to make money to treat bella or even grow my powers.'"Ok I would leave." After contemplating for some time he decided to leave, he turned his back but then Jason called out for him.."Wait.. who said you can leave after delaying me, come over here and bow to me before you leave."'Damn, this dickhead bastard won't let this rest. I'm here to get my hero card and leave. You're here for the same thing, so why not get it and leave as well?' He cussed inwardly. Just as he was about to give his reply, another voice came from the entrance."Jason, aren't you full of yourself?"Everyone tilted their heads to take a look at the speaker who had the guts to speak against Jason. However, when they saw the speaker, their mouths immediately tightened, refusing to let out a single word.The speaker was none other than Sasha Larey, Jason's older sister. She was just 18, and she was already a 2-star magic user."Sasha, what are you doing here? Why are you speaking for that beggar?" Jason gritted his teeth and asked."Who said I'm speaking for him?" Sasha retorted. "If you're here to register, just go on with it and stop making a scene, or else I'll send you out."Liam stood at the side, watching the two siblings argue with each other. No one would even be able to tell they were siblings with the way they argued."Hmph, Sasha, if you can stay in a place like this with a beggar like that bastard, then I want you to know that I can't. Hmph. I want him out of this place, but first, he has to bow to me and lick my shoes."Sasha snorted at Jason. She didn't even reply and walked toward Liam, who was about the same age as her."You're here to register, right? Come with me."She took Liam's hand and started leading him toward the escalator.Jason gritted his teeth and sent his two guards to stop Sasha."Young Miss, please wait. Let that young beggar apologize to Young Master Jason," they said as they placed their hands on her shoulder.Nevertheless, they started shivering when she glared at them and immediately took their hands away from her body."Sister, you're standing up for a beggar instead of your own brother. I won't let you..." Nevertheless, before he could even complete his statement, Sasha arrived in front of him, her eyes filled with a mix of disappointment and anger.Without a second thought, she swiftly raised her hand and delivered a resounding slap across Jason's face. The force of the slap sent him sprawling to the ground.Jason held his cheek momentarily stunned by the impact of the slap "How dare you!" he yelled, his voice trembling with anger. "You dare to raise your hand against me? And all for this... this beggar?"Liam, who had been observing the tense exchange, remained composed despite the insults hurled his way. He knew better than to engage in such provocation. Instead, he turned his attention to Sasha, concerned for her well-being.Ignoring Jason's curses, Sasha turned her gaze to Liam, her voice firm yet tinged with concern. "Let's go. We don't need to waste any more time here,"Everyone in the hall stared at Jason with pity in their eyes, none of them dared to get closer.Jason's guards gained their senses back after Sasha left with Liam and immediately rushed to help Jason up."Young master Jason, are you hurt anywhere." They asked with care."Leave me alone you damn lowlifes" Jason gritted his teeth at them and stood up, he walked out of the place with deep hatred and anger in his face.He entered his multimillion car and drove away leaving his guards outside CGH, stranded."What's your name?" Sasha asked Liam as she led him into the registration room."Liam." Liam only gave her his first name."Liam," Sasha repeated, nodding. "Nice to meet you, Liam. I apologize for my brother's behavior. He can be... difficult at times."Liam smiled faintly. "It's alright. I'm used to people judging me based on my appearance. Thank you for standing up for me."Sasha's expression softened, and she placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "No one should be treated that way, especially when they're here for the same reason as everyone else. We all have our own goals and dreams."They arrived at the registration room, where a lady in her late twenties was waiting. She had a stern expression on her face, and her eyes scanned Liam critically.When the lady saw Sasha she smiled sweetly at her and greeted her but when she saw Liam, her face turned stern and unfriendly."Mrs Evelyn, he is here to register.Liam, she would take care of everything from here on I have a meeting with someone." She waved at Liam and then left leaving him alone with Evelyn.After Sasha left Evelyn expression became really unfriendly."Why do you think someone as lowly as you would awaken abilities? I don't understand why Ms. Sasha bother to assist beggars like you." Evelyn said to Liam with a very harsh tone in her voice."Why do you think someone as lowly as you would awaken abilities? I don't understand why Ms. Sasha bother to assist beggars like you." Evelyn said to Liam with a very harsh tone in her voice. "And don't think that I will treat you different just because she brought you. Get that in your head alright." Despite the harshness in Evelyn's tone, Liam maintained his composure, refusing to let her words deter him. He is doing all these for Bella and won't stop or make unnecessary trouble till his little sister is healed. Without uttering a word, Evelyn stood on her heel and walked briskly towards a nearby door. Liam followed suit, his steps determined and his mind focused on the task at hand.Entering the room, Liam's eyes were immediately drawn to the center, where a transparent crystal orb sat atop a glass box. Liam stared at it for a few seconds but he felt as thought there was nothing different about the orb. "That over there is the Enigma Orb, once you place your hands on them it w
Liam arrived in a beautiful part of CGH, it was a place assigned to those who plan to use the special transportation of CGH. It was a train that runs on a railway connected in the air. "Liam, here is it. I have already arranged for your ride, the train will stop at the exact location but you have to wait ten minutes for the next ride to begin." Evelyn said to him with a sweet smile. Liam nodded his head and walked inside the train, there are other heroes inside the train most of them are around the same age or younger than Liam. "Eww, when has CGH started using the AeroTrains to transport beggars." All of them tilted their heads towards him and said bad words. They judged him immediately because of his appearance. He was wearing tattered clothes, and his shoes were clearly worn out, only holding on because of the tiny piece of threads holding them together.Liam decided not to reply any of them, he searched for a vacant seat. He found one at the middle of the train and walked towar
Behold in front of them stood a monster twice as tall as the tallest among them, it has a smaller body and a very large head that has a bony structure, it's eyes were blazing red and they stared down at the three of them with mischief. The sight elated three of them and they immediately moved backward to take a proper look at the position they found themselves. After crossing the route they found themselves in this small compartment, it was as wide as ten living room combined together and there were three other monsters having the same appearance as the first. "Clara, we are doomed!" Leonardo yelled out of fear, right now he was shivering like sometimes who has just been taken out of a freezer "That's a domeskull, a fucking domeskull! Clara, this is all your fault I told you we should take the other route now we are all going to die." "Shut up, Leonardo. No one is going to die" Clara shot a glare at Leonardo, she turned to look at Liam and saw him staring at the monsters with no
Monster cores are the immediate benefits gained from slaying monsters; these monster cores hold more value than you can imagine, despite coming from the same entities whose only goal is to destroy the Earth.Liam looked at the monster cores. He knew only so much about them; this was his first time seeing one, but not his first time hearing about it."How can I use that to make money?" he asked Clara."You can sell it to CGH or those who need it. One of these monster cores can sell for at least ten thousand dollars or more, depending on the market rate," she explained."Oh... So cheap?""For this type of monster core, yes. But other monster cores from stronger monsters should sell for about one million to one billion per core. This one is barely a 1-star grade, so it has a very cheap price in the market."Liam placed his hand on his chin and thought, 'Hmm, then I have to slay more monsters and make money quickly. I still need to pay for Oxy-689 every day; I can't laze around now.'"Hey
'Is this how I'm going to die?' Only that thought crossed his mind right now, he was just a few meters away from his death just a few seconds from now that energy beam would be fired at him and the only result would be death!There was no saving it now but Liam recalled that there is someone relying on him, he quickly placed his hands in front of his face even if he knew it was useless against such a powerful power beam.Meanwhile, the domeskulls kept powering up the energy beam it was holding in it's mouth, it was getting really close to shooting it at Liam.But at that moment, the ground beneath it froze up sending a chilling feels up it's large body.It looked at it's feet and saw the large mass of ice he was standing on top.It's monstrous eyes stared at the ice in confusion as though he was asking 'How did this suddenly appear here?'"Liam here is your chance." Clara alerted Liam immediately.Liam removed the hands blocking his face and saw that the domeskull was no longer aiming
- "Congratulations, you took down the boss and completed the objective. Here's a little reward for completing the challenge."- "The exit portal is ready. You can exit the dungeon before it disappears in the next ten minutes."Aethervoice announced the end of their expenditure. At this moment, these were the words and voice they wanted to hear.Liam leaned on the body of the domeskull, panting to catch his breath, he was exhausted from fighting the domeskull.With the Aethervoice, he was assured that no challenge lay in front of him in this dungeon anymore so he could take his time to rest.After Aethervoice's announcement, a treasure chest fell out of nowhere and landed in the middle of the trio.Liam was the first to notice because he was very close to it.He was confused. Why was there a treasure chest falling out of nowhere? Who sent the treasure chest? What is in the treasure chest?Anyway, he heard Aethervoice's voice talking about rewards. He guessed that was the reward.He sto
Fredrick has been a prick right from the day Liam knew him at the age of 6. He was a bully and an arrogant bastard who did nothing but flex his parents' strength and wealth. He disrespected not only Liam but also everyone in his family – his father, his mom. He saw them as nothing but beggars and weaklings. He would tell everyone around him how weak Liam's dad was and how poor they were. He would call them names like "dirt eater" and "poverty-stricken bastards." If there was anyone he really hated, it would be Fredrick. 'What is he doing here?' The first question popped up in Liam's mind, and he started walking fast toward the house. Fredrick was standing in the midst of two scary looking men with dark shades and bald heads. He was pointing at the building while grinning; whatever he was saying would most likely not be good. "Fredrick, what are you doing here?" Liam asked with a frown. Fredrick noticed Liam's presence at that moment. He turned his head toward Liam and stared at
Liam has been living the past years grieving about his unfortunate life, how he was a weakling and how his parents are disrespected everywhere, including public places like supermarkets.He tried his best to make things go the right way, but they just never did.Throughout the years his parents were alive, they never hated him because he wasn't able to awaken superpowers, they loved him, they advised him, they cared for him, and they did all that in this house.This has been his home since he was 3, when the clan kicked them out of the mansion they used to live in.And now, someone who never cared about him or what he has been going through is planning to shatter all his memory and make it a place for pigs.He could not accept it![You used Martial King skills (flash steps)]He heard the familiar robotic system voice in his ear but he did not care, he closed the distance in a short amount of time now he was right in front of two men.He clenched his hands tightly and sent a punch aimin
