Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law

Chapter 05 - The vengeance System

(Back to when Roger was in the Dungeon!)

Roger rubbed his eyes two to three times seeing a black window that popped out in front of him out of nowhere.

“What the….?”

A black window with golden-colored words was hovering in front of him.

Ding!

[The User has reached level.1]

He still couldn’t believe his eyes.

“What the hell is this?’

He repeatedly swung his hand in the air, checking if he was dreaming.

“Did I finally go crazy”

He himself was having doubt, that if he had gone crazy or something, but no matter how much he tried to deny it, the window in front of him was still there!

“I finally awakened!”

Unable to control his tears, he finally burst into tears!

“Damn!"

Words weren’t coming out of his mouth at his happiness!

All this time the humiliation he faced! The criticism and the dirty gazes he got…

‘Wait for me bi*ches!’

He didn’t even know what to do but he was sure of something…

“I am gone f*ck you all…..”

He screamed as loud as he can, releasing all his frustration at once!

And as if waiting for it, the message notifications continued, going on without a stop.

Ding!

[The condition for awakening the system had been met]

[Congratulations! You have awakened ‘The Vengeance System’!!]

[System installation will start in 3s]

“What Vengeance system??”

Roger thought as it was weird, He heard that some people would awaken with some special skills but what did System mean?

He was thinking about what it was when it happened!

[3s…2s…1s…]

[Initiating system installation]

[Please brace yourself for it]

“What do you mean brace yourself…!”

He didn’t need to ask as he got to know that soon enough.

A sharp pain induced in his head as it started to spread throughout his body!

His whole body started shining with a red and black aura, He felt as if his bones and muscles were being ripped apart.

 “Arhhhhh!!!!”

The pain was unbearable…

“heuk!...ahhh….”

And it seemed as if it wouldn’t subdue anytime soon!

Roger gritted his teeth ‘This is the chance I have gotten, I will not lose it by any means!’

He was not going to lose the opportunity even if it killed him.

The pain slowly reduced as a soothing and calm feeling came to his mind!

Ding!

[System installation has been successful!]

He heard the voice in his head again!

He was still confused as to what this system was, but before he could do anything the voice itself answered with a black window.

[Welcome! Host]

[You have successfully acquired ‘Vengeance System!’]

[All your stats have been increased by 10]

Ding!

[You have successfully awakened mana]

[You have acquired a special class, Avenger!]

[You have acquired a skill ‘Resentment’]

[You have acquired a special skill ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth]

[You have acquired a skill ‘Devotion to Revenge’]

[You have acquired a skill ‘Hateful strike’]

[You have acquired a special skill ‘Eye of Vengeance’]                                                                                                                                                                               

A swarm was messages invaded his field of vision as Roger was completely overwhelmed by the number of messages.

As he read through the messages, he became more and more shocked!!

 “What the hell…. a special class? And what’s with this absurd number of skills!?”

Normally, when a person awakens, he would have normal classes like Swordsman, mage, fighter, etc. based on their hobbies and their life.

And only a small amount of people, about one in tens of thousands would have awakened with a special class, It was so rare that there were only about a hundred people with special classes in the country.

Not to mention the skills that he got!

A normal awaked would have two normal skills and in an extreme case special skill, special skills were even rare than the special class, so much that a person with even a single special skill will be welcomed in any of the major guilds with open hands!!

And in such a situation! Roger, who was a common man until an hour ago, acquired a special class along with five skills, that too two special skills at that.

Slap!

Roger slapped himself.

“It must be a dream!”

Slap!

Now to another cheek.

“Wake up you bastard, Enough with the dreaming!”

He just couldn’t believe that he awakened a special class and skills!

Until just yesterday, he was so desperate to just awaken but now suddenly, it was like this!

“The pain! It is real!”

Tears started to roll out of his eyes involuntarily as he just couldn’t suppress the feelings!

“God! Even if it is a dream, let me enjoy this movement for a bit longer!!”

He cried so much that, all the tears that he had held back for years came out all at once.

After he had calmed down enough, he wiped out his tears wondering, “I know about the skills and class but what is this System?”

And as if to answer his question a black window appeared again.

[The Vengeance system is a power that has been born due to your will]

“Born due to will….??”

[Your will of getting revenge on those who humiliated you has taken a form]

“What the….!!”

[‘If there is a will, there is a way” there are many cases where the Will of a strong person has taken a form but it is the first time it has happened for a weak man like yourself]

“I somehow feel offended at that sentence”

[Facts hurt people!]

“….”

He was speechless at the comments that were coming out of that black window!

“Wait then who are you?”

[Are you stupid! Didn’t I just say I am the thing that is born out of your will?]

“oh…! Then this system thing…”

[That’s just a way for me to communicate with you]

“Whaooo!!”

[And for your wish to come true, I, your ‘Will’ will help you]

“You will help me?”

[Yeah!]

“How will you help me?”

[Every time you achieve a part of your wish, I, your ‘Will’ will get more powerful]

“whoa!”

[So, I will provide tasks for you in the form of quests, every time you finish the quest, I will gain power, which in turn will increase your power]

“Isn’t that too similar to a game?”

[That’s the most convenient way I could come up with to explain to a blockhead like you!]

“Aren’t you too cocky for someone who was born from my will?”

[You should try saying ‘Status’, your abilities will be shown if you do so]

The system completely ignored him saying what it wanted without responding to him.

Roger didn't seem to mind that too as he was too excited to check out the special abilities he got!

“whoa... that’s convenient! STATUS”

Roger was over the moon seeing his status, skills, and stats, he was about to check their description when he started to feel dizzy…

“What is happening….!”

The surrounding around were becoming blurred slowly as his eyes were gradually forced shut!

[Oh! Forgot to tell you, there is an after-effect of implementing a system, you will probably have to be knocked out for two to three days, good luck surviving here!]

[May we meet, if you are still alive that is!]

“you fu*king syste….”

Soon his vision turned black and he collapsed to the ground!
