**THE SYSTEM**
Roshan picked the book and looked around it, he tried to open it but nothing was working, he even used his dagger to pry open the book but nothing worked however as he tried using his dagger, the knife slipped out of his hand and grazed his finger causing a small drop of blood to fall on the book.
Immediately the blood fell, he heard a monotone voice
*Bloodline recognised*
«Bloodline?? What the hell was that» Roshan thought but before he could think of anything else, he heard another statement
*Roshan Talon*
*Would you like to access the System*
«What kind of name was that? The person who made this thing must have been really boring» Roshan thought to himself. He actually wanted to know what was in the book but he felt like he needed to show his father before he did anything because this object was really strange
His Curiosity took the best of him
“Yes, I would like to access the System” It felt even weirder saying it
A bright light was shown and immediately the object disappeared from his hand. Where was it? Damn, he should have just kept it for his father instead.
Then a sound echoed in his head
‹Ding›
*Roshan Talon, you have successfully gained control of the System*
Before he could even react, a screen appeared in his head

Quest: Kill a Level 1 beast
Quest Reward: Instant Level up
He ran through all the message, each one of them shocking him as he couldn’t even understand. He had a lot of questions running through his head at the moment.
He was least surprised at his mage status because he knew he wasn’t meant to be a mage, he was impressed at the creator of this System but what exactly is it.
His eyes went to the screen in front of him and landed at the quest in front of him.
He had yet to kill a Level 1 beast, he hasn’t even fought one in order to gauge its strength. He was wondering if he could actually do it, immediately looking at the possible reward his eyes glittered in the dark.
What would be the possible reward if he is was to level up instantly. The curiousity gave him a new resolve and he climbed out of the ditch, he could see it was already very dark. His parents must have been worried, he realised that they still had a little food enough for just the both of them and if he came back with a Level 1 beast meat, that would mean that they would have enough for two months and even more.
This was a good opportunity, he thought as he smiled.
******
He took his dagger and ran off deeper into the forest as he noticed the foot prints of a beast, from its size, he immediately knew it was the beast he was looking for and judging from the fact that it was the only footprint. It was a lone wanderer.
He immediately ran in the direction and saw the beast laying down on the grass as if it was ready to sleep. This was his chance, would this day be any luckier he thought as he smiled.
Stealthily crawling up to the beast, he saw by the look of it that it was a Dim Dog.
Dim Dogs were the weakest of the beasts, they mostly travelled in large group as a result of their weak strength. A hundred Dim Dogs were enough to take down a level 30 Human Soldier.
The Dim Dogs were led by their King, the strongest of all and it was at King tier, A level 30 beast. With that power, it could command thousands of Dim Dogs.
Seeing that this one was alone, it was obvious that it was separated from the herd. The softest part of the Dim Dog was its neck.
He drew closer and slammed his dagger into it’s neck, out of shock the Dim Dog eyes flew open and it started running, squealing and Roshan knew this would bring him a lot of trouble if the herd were to hear one of their member’s cry.
He was already on top of the Beast as he dragged his dagger out of its neck and slammed it onto the beast head, it was too short to go any deeper and he needed to affect the brain.
He took out the dagger and kept stabbing it and he went deeper. The Dim Dog didn’t know why it was feeling this unbearable pain as it kept jumping and howling.
Seeing this, Roshan stabbed the sides of the beast with his legs as dived deeper with the dagger till the beast suddenly stop and fell down unmoving.
Roshan heaved a sigh of relief as he couldn’t hear any signs of approaching beasts. He climbed down the beast and felt proud that he actually killed a Level 1 beast.
The Dim Dog flesh was very nutritious and tasty and it would make his parents proud. As he started to savour this victory. A ding echoed in his ear

He immediately got into his fighting stance as he grapped his sword.Taking light steps towards the source of the sound.A large looking pig like shaped creature with the head of a rodent jumped out of the bush taking Roshan by surprise but due to his speed and agility, he was able to avoid the attack.He would have said the creature looked like a giant rat but the protruding biceps on all four of its limb contrasted with its thin body that the shape of its ribs were visible and it was a pretty ugly shape.The nauseating smell made the black haired boy cringe his nose in disgust.“Crystal Iris activate” He mentally said*Raret*Level 1*Ability: Poison*HP: [10/10]Now that his crystal iris had levelled up, he would be able to tell the health points of his opponent.“Hmmm…poison, that would explain this horrible stench” Roshan thought as he pointed his weapon at the beast who was growling at the intruder in its territory.‘sssssssssst’ green gas flowed out from the skin pores of the b

They both had to face different opponents, and their opponents weren’t giving them a breathing space. “Let’s go, Roshan.” Hera said, and at the sound of her voice. She activated her spells “Light element: Judgemental Rods.” At the sound of Hera’s voice. A dozen thick rods formed in front of her, ready to launch at the Daegi. “Would you need any help?” Hera said, directing her question to Roshan. “I don’t know yet.” Roshan replied calmly. He really didn’t know if he would be able to kill this thing but he definitely wanted to kill it. ------ He just wanted to get the satisfaction of killing it, the one thing that was the cause of his parents’ death.

“Welcome.” Heath uttered with a wry smileRoshan only stared at him with boiling anger powering the intensity of his fire.“Shut your mouth, Heath. We aren’t done yet.” Roshan yelled furiously.“I’m done with you, Roshan. Weren’t you meant to be leaving? You had your chance to go and now you returned because of your selfishness. You neglected your friends and family to come back here, Roshan.” Heath cried out, and laughed.“Roshan, you fool. You have been blinded. This is what I like. A hero who thinks only about himself. I’m so happy that you are finally true to yourself.” Heath grinned widely. His face contorting into one of pure madness.“I said, Shut up!” Roshan moved swiftly, putting his attributes to use. A sword made of fire immediately appeared in his hand, burning fiercely as it mirrored the raging emotions of its wielder.Roshan brought the sword with full force but Heath had already moved away.

DAEGI'S RAMPAGE
“We need to get out of here immediately.” Roshan blurted out in a rush. He straightened his body but he still couldn’t get rid of the pain. “What do you mean, Roshan?” Hera looked at him. She had picked up Siera who had just woken up, and placed her on her shoulders. “A Daegi is out there.” Roshan uttered, a look of worry etched on his face. This was something that would kill them. “A Daegi? “ Hera’s eyes shook. She clenched her fist, she didn’t know if she could face an actual Daegi while she had to protect these kids. The last time she held off a Daegi was because she summoned him, but would she be able to do with the current amount of mana she had left. “How many rings did you see?” Lans asked, he didn’t know why but he just couldn’t get rid of the suspicions he had for this kid. “I… I don’t know. We have to go see it ourselves.” Roshan spoke, and he moved to his father. “I’m so happy you are saved.” Roshan said with a smile and he placed his arms around Old man Fyi, giving

Hera turned around in an instant, grabbing Lans’ collar, and she slammed his back onto the cold hard wall. Lans looked at her directly in his eyes before bringing his head low. It was his responsibility to take care of them but he had done a terrible job. He couldn’t bring himself to say it to Hera’s face. “Answer me, Lans.” Hera growled at him. “Heath took them away. He had taken away Siera as a ransom and a bet saying that if we found Roshan’s father here, he would release her.” Lans replied her. “And you let him?” Hera’s hold on Lan’s collar tightened, and cracks started to surface on the wall.She felt a touch on her hand, and looked up, it was Read. “Give him a break. We had no choice.” Read said with a low voice. Hera sighed and released Lans. “Where is Roshan?” She asked, her eyes moving towards Lans.“The coward was taken after we lost consciousness due to a gas.” A soldier muttered but Hera heard the words. “Coward?” Heath questioned, looking at the soldier that had sp

KNOWING THE TRUTH
“My father?” Roshan looked at Heath as the boy in white paced around the laboratory, holding the bloodied scalpel in his hand. “Your father was a killer.” Heath’s voice rang out. His eyes held no emotion as he spoke.“I know.” Roshan replied back to him. His teeth was clenched as he struggled to keep his focus on Siena and calculate how much time she had left.Roshan’s father being a killer wasn’t new to his son. He was a war veteran, he would gotten rid of the head on the neck of the enemies and Roshan as his son had grown to accept it. “...” Heath was silent before he let out a low chuckle. The sound of the scalpel hitting the ground echoed in the laboratory.“So you know he killed my parents?” Heath’s eyes grew cold, and for the first time, Roshan was sure he saw a strange emotion on Heath’s face before it quickly switched back to normal. “My father would never do such a thing.” Roshan replied. He had trust in his father. The man was too simple to harm his fellow human unless h

He had visited this place before, but he wasn't placed in such a position.The last time he came here was when his system had shut down after the Arkon's tournament fight with Siera.Looking back now, he realized that he had truly come a long way, and he was a lot stronger than before.However, last time, his parents had visited him, but why weren't they here now?"Wake up, Hero."

Everyone turned their heads to Roshan waiting for him to say something to them. He couldn’t possibly be the coward that Heath was talking about. He had saved them a lot of times. Heath quietly watched the scene from where he sat. It was just as he planned.He wouldn’t even have to do anything, he would just watch them destroy each other from the inside.It was quite hilarious to see the little faith that they lacked. “Roshan, if you have a way for us to get out. It’d be much better for you to do it now. It’s your father we are after.” Roshan listened as Lans spoke, but he couldn’t tell them about his powers. He would have to explain a lot, and they would not even understand him. How could he explain his abilities when he couldn’t even absorb mana. “I have nothing to say.” Heath smiled when he heard Roshan’s words. Why was the boy so adamant on keeping his powers secret?Well he didn’t have much time to waste. They would find out sooner or later. Lans was about to say something

It had taken a lot of effort for Roshan to calm but that was after his rage made him tear of someone’s limb.
