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!
Just from the footsteps, he knew who it was, his anxiety-filled face became relaxed hearing the footsteps.
He looked towards the lavish door, which was soon flung open.
A beautiful young lady who looked to be just at the tender age of 20s entered the room with a worried face.
She had beautiful red hair with a small long hairline, her eyes glowing like blue gems, an alluring body with perfect proportions, and sharp canine teeth.
Her beauty just seemed out of this world, just seeing her face made Eren forget about his worries.
The red-haired beauty came running towards him, hugging him tightly in her embrace.
Sob..!sob…
He could hear her sobbing and feel his chest getting wet from her tears.
He remembered! He remembered what happened! He remembered why he was in the bed!
Seeing the beauty shedding tears, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He blamed himself for making her cry.
He didn't say anything, he hugged her and just let her cry to her heart's content.
Was it after ten minutes? He didn't know, it felt like time just flew by with her in his embrace.
"I am sorry"
He said in a low voice. He truly felt sorry for making her worry for him. He was ashamed of himself that he even thought of leaving such an innocent and loving lover alone.
"I am sorry, Julia!"
He was trying hard to hold in his tears, he didn't want to show his weakness in front of his lover even though she was stronger than him.
thud!
He felt a light push on his chest!
"You dummy"
He looked at the blue-eyed beauty who was staring at him!
"You should have told me if it was difficult for you"
Her eyes had turned red from crying so much and her face was pale. Just from her appearance alone, he could tell how worried she was about him.
"I am sorry"
He just didn't have the confidence to even look in her eyes after what he did! All he could do was just ask for her forgiveness.
"I have talked with my father!"
She said, turning her head away.
Shoot!
Eren remembered another thing he had forgotten.
The Letter!!
Before going to the dungeon, he had written a letter in hopes of delivering his last message to Julia!
‘Damn! Did she read it? It’s so embarrassing!’
He was so sure that he would vainly die in the dungeon that he included something which wasn’t even required there.
He even wrote something like… ‘I will always love you, my dear, even in death.
Now that he thought about it, it was too cringe!
Eren wanted to bury his head in the ground due to the embarrassment.
‘I can’t even look at her face now, god damn stupid me.’
He blamed himself!!
It was likely that Julia who read that letter thought that Eren wasn’t comfortable here and had some talk with her father!
"We will soon leave for th.."
"Julia!"
She wanted to say something to him but she was caught off guard by two hands that held her shoulders!
Now that he had made a mistake it was time for him to correct it himself, he had awakened only now, he finally had a ray of hope for coming out of all the humiliation, he couldn’t possibly ruin it by getting on the bad side of his father-in-law now, can he?
She stared at her lover who became serious all of a sudden!
"I will not run away, ever again!"
His voice contained resolution as he said that to her!
Julia blushed slightly seeing him act all confident like a prince from one of the stories she read.
"What are you saying to all of su..!"
"I will protect you from now on!"
She doubted her ears for a second!
Why is he saying these embarrassing things all of sudden? but then again she thought about it and looked seriously into his eyes!
Julia Von Rozental, The loved 7th daughter of the strongest awakened man on Earth, Aden von Rozental.
More than that, she was an awakener who was ranked 97th by the World Awakener Ranking (WAR) and one of the few A-rank awakeners in the country!
For her lover, who was not even awakened and was innately weak, to say that he will protect her, She doubted that her lover would say it without any thought!
She looked into his eyes, she didn’t say anything but Eren understood what she was thinking!
“Yes!”
He said as a sweet smile appeared on his face.
He bought her face near his chest, embracing her closer as he said,
“I Awakened!’
It was time for him to act like a proper man.

"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,

The strongest man on Earth. The guild leader of the Number one guild. Head of the Rozentals. The Merciless Blade. He was called by many names. He was the man that stood at the forefront of humanity, fighting the dungeon creatures constantly and ensuring the safety of countless humans. His name was Aden. Aden Von Rozental, the strongest! When the Great Crisis happened in 2010, He was the man that stood to protect humans. He constantly engaged in fights, cleared dungeons, and slashed off the monsters, all while recruiting reliable and strong members to stand beside him.

"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!

Awakened! They were the last ray of hope that guarded humanity against the monsters and dungeons. Though the humans started to awaken irregularly after the great disaster, there were too many unanswered questions about them. How did they get their power? what were the conditions to get that power? and how can they become strong? there were just too many questions to list. But after long and tedious research, scientists have managed to answer some of them. How did the awakened get their power? It was due to the presence of mana which was previously absent on the Earth before the great disaster. And about their power...Except for some rare cases that happened once in a while, most humans would awaken as an F rank, but the power of an individual would differ largely based on the skills they would awaken. Normally, an average awakened would have two normal skills and the strong awakeners would have two normal skills in addition to a single special skill. The people with special sk

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

"What kind of nonsense... aren't you the one who gave it to that rabbit?" Eren questioned, clearly perplexed by the situation.Mr. Nice guy simply shrugged in response, implying that it didn't really matter. At the moment, what mattered was that their beloved Tori had become a thief."Then, based on the proof of my rank, I should find the rabbit named Tori before my condition runs out," Eren concluded, looking for confirmation from Mr. Nice guy.Mr. Nice guy nodded, confirming Eren's statement. Without wasting any time, Eren mentally prepared himself and felt his body warm up instantly.His condition level was at 98%, and the drop rate was noticeably slow due to his high condition."I have to catch all the rabbits and turn them over," Eren thought determinedly.

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
