Eren who came out of the luxurious car, stood marveling at the dungeon portal that has formed in the middle of a forest.

It looked like a pitch-black space covered by blue energy!

“This marvelous portal could very well become my grave…haha”

He said sarcastically, giving a wry laugh at his own fate!

The driver he bought was still standing in the distance as he ordered.

Actually, Eren told him to go back but the man refused, saying it was his duty to take him anywhere he wants.

“Julia, Scarlet, and this stupid driver…. My life isn’t completely bad I think”

He murmured as a smile unconsciously found its way onto his face.

Even in the middle of all his sufferings, there were still some kind and honest people because of whom he could endure that hell.

He was getting emotional remembering all that...

But suppressing his further thoughts he walked near the portal, there were some people from the ‘Awakener’s Association’ that managed the portals!

As soon as they saw Eren, a man came near him…

“Are you here to raid the dungeon?”

He was a bulky man whose belly was as big as that of a pregnant woman, His looks were average with a face that people would find hard to remember.

The Awakener’s Association has made it compulsory for an individual to have an Awakener’s license if he or she wanted to enter any dungeon.

It was to stop suicide cases and to prevent mindless people from going into the dungeon recklessly, furthermore if a person of lower rank wanted to raid a dungeon above his rank, then he must be accompanied by at least a one another awakener with the same level as that of a Dungeon.

Since Eren wasn’t even an awakener, it would have been impossible for him to enter the dungeon, well, it would have been impossible if he didn’t suddenly push the officer and jump right into the portal!

"Hey, you fuc*ing bastard..."

Before the portal guard could even scream something, Eren's body disappeared into the dungeon portal.

"Mast....."'

Even Ircus who saw his reckless act screened in hopes of stopping him, which ultimately did nothing but fade into the ears of Eren who disappeared.

***

Eren who suddenly jumped into the portal could hear the cursing officer and the concerned voice of his driver who was running towards him, but the noises were soon cut off as he appeared in a completely new space itself!

"Arhhh..!:

There was a slight pain in his head due to the dimension transport but he got better after some time.

Eren turned to look all around him.

He was in the middle of what looked to be a forest, there were lush green trees on all his sides, and numerous bushes and shrubs were grown there, it seemed to be a place that was untouched by the humans.

It was currently night in the dungeon and the whole forest was lightened by the shining moon that was hanging in the sky, amidst the countless stars!

“Wow…”

Eren was marveling at the beauty of nature when a White furred fox, which was as big as a normal dog jumped out of a Bush!

swosh!

“Wohh!”

The fox with white fur stood out in the night as the fur itself seemed to glow in the darkness!

Eren was surprised by the immediate appearance of the monster but he regained his posture relatively well as the fox was not much different than the ones he had seen in zoos.

He didn’t waste the time marveling at the monster and he took out the knife that he managed to slide in by hiding it under his coat.

“Now shall I check my limit!”

Eren has never been to a dungeon.

It was his first time being in the dungeon.

Although it was an F-ranked one, A dungeon was still a dungeon and the nervousness was not easily avoidable.

It is said that the monster in the F-rank dungeon was only slightly stronger than that of wild animals, Eren didn’t know if it was true or not but he had decided that he would fight in the dungeon, either till he awaken or till he dies.

Giving him no time to prepare the fox pounced on him.

Eren who didn’t have much experience in fights took a step back raising his hands.

He tried to dodge the fox but the claws of the fox met with his hand, piercing his skin.

Blood gushed out of his hand as Eren jumped back, pressing the wound using his other hand!

“Damn it”

 It was an expected result! No one can become One p*nch man in a day, even though Eren had fit physic that was stronger than the common people, at the end of the day, he was also a non-awakened man with no battle experience.

But He didn’t give up on that!

He had already resolved himself, even if he had to die today, he would try his absolute best to fight the beasts.

Ignoring the bleeding hand, he held the knife backward like a dagger, concentrating on the fox that was getting ready to pounce on him, and soon it did so.

This time, Eren didn’t back down, rather he sprinted forward, slashing at the fox even before it can move its hand.

His knife pierced its skin and blood gushed out, painting its white fur red!

But the fox didn’t die at that, rather it went berserk!!

“Fu*k, the first monster I met had to be a mutated one?”

When coming to the Dungeon by Car, Eren didn’t just simply sit in the back, he did some research about the Moon Fox dungeon.

From what he found on the net, it was a normal dungeon except that some monsters in the dungeon, have undergone partial mutation, gaining the ability to go berserk when they take a certain amount of damage!

Maybe his bad luck, Eren met the Mutated monster right at the start!

The Berserk skill would make the monster more savage, partially immune to pain, and increase the attack damage.

Just like a mad bull charging at red cloth.

Eren quickly backed down, observing the fox intently, since he wasn’t awakened, he didn’t have any skills or mana, so if he lost concentration even for a movement that would mean his death!

The fox which was now covered by a layer of the red aura, sprinted in his direction, jumping on him right from the front!

Even though its ability has increased the side effect of Berserk which made the monster’s intelligence decrease made it very easy to read its attacks!

Eren who saw the Path it was going to attack, readied his knife holding it in both hands.

And right when it jumped on his head aiming at his face, He stabbed the knife through its neck!

“Arhhh!!!”

The knife went in, piercing through another end of its neck.

Eren tossed aside the knife along with the fox.

The fox fell to the ground with the knife, limping, it tried to get up but soon succumbed to the pain embracing death.

“Huff…Huf…. Wow! Just defeating a simple normal monster is so hard….”

Eren was already gasping for air, even though the battle lasted for a very short time, It was his first time fighting in three years.

“Now that I think about it, all I did in the last three years was to take a beating…”

He smiled sarcastically at himself remembering how spine-less he was.

Pushing those thoughts aside, he was about to go take his knife back…when….

Ding!

[The User has reached level.1]

Ding!

[The condition for awakening the system had been met]

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

“What….!!??”

    Eren 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 a 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!

    "Uggh!!" Eren woke up holding his head as a sharp pain was still lingering in his forehead. "Where am I?" He slowly got up from the bed he was laying on, looking around himself. A huge room with a luxurious bed, on top of which he was lying. The same old room that he remembered, which was uselessly rich and lavish! Be it the tea table near the window or the matrix on the floor, everything looked luxurious. The cleanroom which was free of even a speck of dust was painted in a white and golden combination giving it a gleam of royal characteristics. But Eren's face paled seeing his surroundings and Beads of sweat started to form on his face for a different matter than when he felt it in the past. This place...It was his own room!! "Why am I here again?" He said, desperately trying to get out of bed. tap!tap!tap! But before he could get out of bed, he heard the hurried steps of someone coming near his room!

    "Dear...you...you awakened? Are you joking now?" A look of disbelief appeared on Julia's face as soon as she heard Eren saying that he has been awakened! She knew that Eren wasn't a man who would joke on serious matters like this but even then, she asked if it was a joke. Eren in turn didn't say anything but gave a warm smile. Eren was expecting her to be astonished. He thought she would be shocked at his awakening and would be happy, but what happened wasn't something he had thought of! Tears rolled out of her scarlet eyes as her face turned red, Eren who saw her starting to cry again got agitated... "Dear...why are you...ok...ok...calm down...Calm down..." He was confused as to why she started to shed tears again all of sudden. was she unhappy that he awakened? that's impossible, she would be happier than Eren himself, then why...? "You...! Did you go to the dungeon putting your life at risk to awaken? were you that desperate?" Eren froze! Right, as an awakened herself,

    "What? stop blabbering and tell me what you really want?" Aden couldn't probably believe that his son-in-law, who was literally locked in his own room for almost three years now, wanted to return to his hometown. He just thought that he wanted some money to play around with and was beating around the bush not knowing how to ask him. "That is really all I want" Eren couldn't possibly say that he wanted to train secretly for about three to six months until he feel safe himself so that he could survive in the midst of the ' Monsters of Rozentals". "Why?" The reaction he got was scary. The look on the face of Aden Von Rozental was distorted. He looked very scary at the movement. Eren instinctively took a step back and dug his fingernails into the skin. "Why would you say that?" Aden made Eren change his last name to Rozentals as the condition for agreeing to their love, because he didn't want his loving daughter to go to some no-name-named family, and since Eren was an Orphan,

    (In the office of Aden von Rozental after Eren left) A butler entered the room holding a vase and started pouring wine into the glass. “This is a wine called, Heavenly Pleasure, apparently it is made of the dungeon grapes that were recently discovered in the S- rank dungeon that our guild raided”, said the butler still pouring the wine. Aden took the glass taking a sip. “Ah...! It’s too sour, I wish it were a bit sweet” He kept the glass of wine on the table, “I think I would better have the wine that was fermented for a decade rather than this!” “It seems you are unusually in a good mood today, Master” The butler said taking the cup away. “You can say?” “You never turn down alcohol if you are not in a good mood, and you seem to hate having bitter things when you are in a good mood” Aden smiled at him “Hmm..10 years ago I believed that having bitter things will what mature you…” He looked at the portrait of the woman which was kept on his table, “But now that I think about

    Atop a hill, far from the contact with city, in the countryside was a house that stood alone amidst the grassland-like landscape, and not far away from there was a calm and beautiful lake. A mother duck was swimming in the lake with a dozen of ducklings on its back, from the front of the house to the nearest connecting road a path, there was a road made out of rocks giving it a touch of aesthetic beauty. Shortly, a luxurious-looking car, which was actually the newest model of Rolls Royce Phantom, arrived at the scene. A man wearing a typical dress of a driver who came out first opened the back door of the car, and out of the car, descended a man with dirty blond hair and pitch-black eyes. It was a long journey, It almost took a day of journey in the top model car just to reach there. stretching his body after getting out of the car, Eren looked at the beauty of nature in front of him! "It isn't anything like how it used to be." Eren said, remembering the once old and worn-out h

    Eren's mind raced as he absorbed the revelation that the Fire Dragon, Ugram, was bound by a sacred pact to protect and aid the Pendragon family. The implications were vast and hinted at a deeper conspiracy that had plagued his past life.His thoughts turned to the decline of the Pendragon family in his previous life. He recalled the tragic event that wiped out his entire family, leaving him as the sole survivor. It had been a night of chaos and destruction, with the fire dragon going on a rampage, nearly destroying the empire.But the fire dragon was now telling that it wasn’t the one Eren pondered the events, he couldn't shake off the feeling that there was more to the story. The pieces didn't fit together neatly, and there were gaps in his memory, as if some crucial information was intentionally hidden from him."Ugram, I believe there was a traitor among the Pendragon household in my past life," Eren began, his voice firm and resolute. "Someone who betrayed us and manipulated the

    When Eren heard that Mr guy was participating in the test, it was the first way that came to mind in Eren’s mind.‘It’s close to impossible for me to find it myself. So, borrow the opponent’s hand again this time.’In fact, it was an operation that could have failed if the opponent was not Mister Guy, a rather talkative evaluator.‘But still, I thought if it’s Mister Guy, he would spit it out at least once in a fatal situation.’In other words, he will surely spit out the word promise when he finds Tori, the situation assumed as the spell.The prediction was completely correct.Of course, it would have been better if it was just before catching Tori, but the situation is not bad now.“See. It’s my victory. No matter how many praiseful situations you’re going to throw in, I also have all the means.”The doubtful Eren, who confirmed that there was no star-shaped dot as a result of flipping the first rabbit’s belly, marked it with a pen and jumped toward the second, feeling anxious for s

    13 minutes could feel incredibly long or incredibly short, depending on the person. Mister Guy let out a short sigh as he watched Eren in the distance, struggling to catch and number rabbits all on his own."It's such a shame. This was supposed to be a special test, and there must have been some good growth. But rules are rules," Mister Guy muttered to himself.He began walking towards Eren, his long legs carrying him effortlessly."It seems you misunderstood, Mister Eren. Unfortunately, luck wasn't on your side," he said, disappointment evident in his voice.Mister Guy knew firsthand just how challenging the rabbit-hunting, thief-catching test was. It was even difficult for him, and he had the support of the powerful God who watched over the test from above. Without their help, it would have been impossible to create such a difficult test for an E-Rank promotion evaluation."I didn't expect that person to pay attention to him so soon," Mister Guy thought, setting aside his thoughts a

    The fight between the two armor knights, similar in specifications, no, and completely the same, lasted quite a long time.Eren expressed admiration, feeling the passion and romance of the man in the appearance of armor knights who exchanged fists with each other even when their teeth were all broken and their whole bodies were in a state of exhaustion.“Wow, it’s not easy. Not easy.” He really wanted to see who would win, but unfortunately, he couldn’t afford it.‘Condition 18%.’He had to organize it so that he could deliver the final blow.They fought among themselves, but their experience belonged to Eren.Eren, who had unconscionable thoughts, swung a counter punch at each other and approached the ‘Sun Knight’ first among the knights who went backwards with their heads bent.He was struggling to force his upper body, but the speed was quite slow.Thanks to this, Eren, who was quite comfortable and climbed over the knight’s head, asked.“Are you Star Knight?”To be honest, he cou

    "Is there any way to bring it down?” Eren thought as he looked around him. “A spacious living room. Tools or situations that could harm the armor knight..." It's difficult to come up with a solution. The empty living room provided the perfect environment for a fair one-on-one match. "What's next? A weapon that only I can use..." It's not that he don't have it. However, using it would require consuming a significant amount of stamina points that I've been saving for future use. "Now is the time to save my stamina. It might be better to bypass the general difficulty level promotion review." [Condition: 56%.] Prolonged consideration seemed to be making the situation naturally worse. "Why create a monster that I can't even defeat? It's a proof of rank?." Of course, it might imply enduring as much difficulty as it presents. Is it right to give up at this point? I don't have to risk my life to clear the extreme difficulty. It wouldn't be a bad idea to go back and choose the norm

    The intense battle, though short, was far from easy. The floor was now littered with broken and split cleaning tools. What surprised Eren was that despite the battle, only a small portion of the wallpaper was torn. However, he focused more on swiftly knocking down the cleaning tools, even with his heavier body, to prevent any further attacks."It's good that I've been training consistently," Eren thought, realizing that his body's muscle memory helped him react instinctively, even though his movements were slower and his mind was clouded.The system message displayed his current condition: 32%. It showed an improvement of 2% from before."Knocking down about 50 cleaning tools increased my condition by 2%? It doesn't seem very efficient, but it's better than nothing."He also realized that he couldn't simply walk through the mansion without caution. Every item seemed to be a potential threat, as even cleaning tools were moving.With heightened tension, Eren cautiously made his way thro
