[Name: Ares Shaddai] [Age: 17] [Creature: Human] [Levels: 1] [Next level: 0/51]

[Strength and Agility: 3&5] [Vitality: 2/4] [Stamina: 1/5] [Power Element: Light]

[Mana: 20/20] [Skill: Appraisal] [Money Coins: 1,000]

"No wonder I feel so weak," Ares said as he looked at the details of his data.

Without wasting time, Ares immediately tried to understand what he should do immediately.

"With the white power of the light element, I should be able to restore myself. But unfortunately, I don't have a single skill to do that." Ares looked discouraged

The man was now hobbling around looking for food, as well as looking for something to treat his wound. Ares closed the menu display in front of him.

"Looks like I'm not completely unlucky, because look at all the food that can be picked immediately."

Ares picked a fruit from a tree in the forest directly. The food was enough to make Ares relieve his hunger. But it turned out that not only did it eliminate hunger, it was also able to heal the wounds on Ares' body.

"All these open wounds closed immediately, and I feel much more energised."

Ares had just felt happy about his recovery when he saw the fruit tree die suddenly.

"Damn it, it looks like the fruit I ate was poisoned," said Ares, who reacted excitedly.

At once, Ares felt his body tremble. The man even seemed to lose control and felt stiff.

"Fuck!" Ares shouted out loudly as he suddenly felt an electric shock run through his body.

Ares was truly experiencing a new form of torture. The man's hand began to stiffen but continued to tremble with the shock of the electric shock every second. Ares then fell unconscious and lost consciousness.

Time passed, and it had been seven days since Ares had experienced such painful torture. On the seventh day, Ares began to feel the effects much more subdued.

"Damn, did I die again?" Ares tried to remember the last incident.

The man then stood up, and again, he felt the strangeness in his body. When Ares took a step, he said, "Wait, why does my body suddenly feel strong? Every one of my five senses has also become very sharp and sensitive. The muscles in this body also seem stronger."

Ares suddenly smiled and then tested his basic abilities.

"This body now feels much better than the body before me." Ares clenched his hands into fists.

"Alright, now it's time for me to level up. If this world is really like in the stories I've read, then it's time for me to show off," Ares said confidently.

As Ares travelled through the dense forest, he found something odd. There was a strange sound around Ares. The man then immediately looked into it.

"Wow, I think I found a monster here. From the looks of it, I'm sure it's a goblin," Ares thought excitedly.

At first, Ares saw one goblin and decided to attack it. But the man refrained as he discovered that the goblins were in groups and not alone.

"It will be very easy to kill them one by one."

Goblins are known as stupid and weak monsters. The monster's strength would only be superior if they were in a group.

Ares immediately took out his sword and prepared his dagger. The man immediately took a step closer to the group of goblins. Without the monster realising it, Ares managed to attack one of them.

"Your history is over!" With one attack, Ares managed to finish off one goblin.

[RING! You levelled up. You received 1000 money coins]

Seeing the notification from the system, Ares felt happy, and then he decided to finish off the other goblins with the same trick.

Ares only spent fifteen minutes to finish off the pack of goblins. 

After finishing that, Ares immediately continued to hunt in the forest. Ares also wanted to test the extent of his limits and abilities. The man only relied on the sword and martial arts techniques he mastered. Occasionally, Ares combined all the talents he had while hunting.

Days passed by, and Ares continued to hunt without stopping. Ares' strength increased rapidly. Killing even ten goblins was no longer able to raise his level.

CRASH!

The monster's head separated from its body, and after that came a system notification in Ares' mind.

[RING! You levelled up. You received 2000 money coins. All the abilities are also affected.]

Ares also began to understand that the more he levelled up, the more exp he would need to advance to the next stage. The man at least felt it was fair that his strength also continued to rise rapidly.

Ares was very proud that he managed to level up to level 20 while he had not used any ability points at all. Out of curiosity, Ares opened his profile menu again.

[Name: Reiner Alfonsius] [Age: 17 Years] [Creature: Human] [Level: 20] next level [0/58] [Strength: 23] [Agility: 25] [Vitality: 24/24] [Stamina: 25/25] [Luck: 30] [Power Elements: Light, Fire, Ice, Lightning, ?] [Mana: 220/220] [Skill: Appraisal] [Money Coin: 31,000] [Shop is available]

Curious about the new menu, Ares pressed the shop panel, and immediately another panel appeared showing what was sold in the system. There were weapons, armour, and skills. Ares' three needs were available in the shop. In addition, the system also sold food, drinks, and medicine.

Ares immediately bought several things that he wanted. Ares bought Black Sword, a normal level 3 sword. Then the man bought Light armour, level 3 light armour. Not to forget the Fireballs skill book and Healing skill, two skill books to help Ares maximise his abilities.

Because the sunlight was still shining, Ares decided to look for food in the forest instead of spending his money to buy food at the system store.

Ares continued his journey while studying the skill book he had just bought. The ability to learn techniques with the book is also unique, because Ares simply opens the book, and instantly, the book becomes energy and then enters Ares' body.

"Fireballs skill turns out to be a low-level skill. But with high usage (Mana), it can be very terrible," Ares muttered and opened the Healing skill book.

Ares discovered the fact that the Healing Skill can heal minor wounds, both external and internal wounds. The power of the skill will be maximised if used by the owner of the light element.

Soon, the sun began to set, and fortunately, Ares had caught one animal for dinner tonight.

"After eating, I better find a comfortable place to sleep. I haven't rested at all since yesterday," Ares thought while eating the meat of his hunt.

Instantly, Ares' eyes found a place not too far from his eating position. A safe cave was around the corner of the forest. Ares then decided to rest there because the surrounding area had no wild animals that could pounce on him at any time.

Time passed, and Ares woke up to the sound of footsteps around the cave where he was resting. Ares could distinguish between different types of footsteps because he had learnt this during his time as a soldier on the battlefield.

"Finally, I can meet a human in this world," muttered Ares, who immediately got up from his sleeping position.

    When Ares stepped outside, he immediately met three young men from a small town. Ares saw the men sitting while treating each of their wounds. When they saw Ares' figure, the men immediately changed their attitude from introspection to attack mode. Ares, who saw the attitude of the men, could immediately judge that they were strong people. And from their scars, Ares assumed that those men had just faced a goblin-type monster. But it was only when they saw Ares' clear appearance that the men were relieved. Because Ares' appearance was like a vagrant, and his young stature did not make the men feel afraid of Ares. Even so, Ares could feel their aura was much stronger than his. "Lad, what are you doing here? This area is dangerous for a novice like you," one of the young men reprimanded. "Sorry, but I do live in this cave. No place is safe as long as the schism continues to rage," Ares replied matter-of-factly, but that thoughtful sentence left them mesmerised. Ares was still only 1

    The place was a small town called Avalon. A separate region that was not incorporated with the empire or other large regions. Based on historical records, the city used to have its own empire. Still, it had to collapse due to their territory which was always flanked by other large territories, making Avalon City one of the battlefield areas. Not to mention that the place is often a stopover for monsters. The city area is not far from the famously dangerous dense forest. But even so, Avalon still stands, and its government and people still exist and support the progress of the small city every time it must be destroyed due to the effects of war or attacks from monsters. It even established a cooperative affiliation in politics and business with the nearby city of Tangier. Tangier was a city within the large territory of the Emerald Empire. Although the two cities often transacted in politics and business, the distance between Tangier and Avalon required months of travelling. The rem

    Ares was now standing in the front garden; the man looked confused, looking for the fruit the system referred to. As far as Ares' eyes could see, he only saw a tree. At first, he hesitated because the apples differed from those the system described. But Ares approached the plant, took four apples, and immediately consumed them. Ten apples were ready to be eaten, but Ares only consumed four and left the rest on the tree. "This fruit really doesn't look like an apple! It's really small," Ares thought. "Sir, I suggest you eat all four fruits at once to give you a one-time shock effect." Ares was confused, but tried to ignore his doubts and quickly asked the system for confirmation. "Sir, you don't need to worry. I've done my own analysis and calculations. And that number is the best way to increase your strength." Ares remained silent and pondered. Although the system reassured him, he was still hesitant to eat the four strange apples he was holding. After some time of convincing

    Ares felt a surge of power coursing through his veins. He smiled brightly and said, “I almost forgot. I have a new strength to test out.” He didn’t need to chant any spells; he only had to imagine his skills and they would manifest. He conjured two balls of white fire and hurled them at the nearest red fur dogs. The fireballs exploded on impact, creating a loud noise and a blast of hot and cold air. Ares saw the red fur dogs vanish in the flames. He said, “What a strange fire. It burns and freezes at the same time.” The other red fur dogs saw their fallen comrades and howled for backup. Soon, Ares was surrounded by eight more of them. He said, “I used two mana to kill two of them. That’s too slow. Let me show you 10% of my power.” He created eight more fireballs around him and aimed them at the red fur dogs. They sensed the danger and tried to flee, but it was too late. Ares said, “You shouldn’t have come here. Now you must die.” The fireballs flew out and hit their targets, crea

    Ares nodded and said, “Okay, summon the subordinate.” A portal opened in front of Ares. A man came out of it and knelt before him. “I am Ashur, your loyal servant, sir,” the man said. Ares was stunned by Ashur’s level. He thought, “Level 2,200? How is this guy so much stronger than me?” “Master, don’t worry. Your subordinates are absolutely loyal to you. Even if they are stronger, they will never betray you.” Ares nodded again. He said, “Ashur, stand up. And don’t call me master. Just use my name.” “I apologize, sir, but that is too disrespectful. You are my master forever, and I, Ashur, dare not call you by your name,” he said and rose. Ares gave up on changing his mind. He didn’t mind having a loyal servant. “Ashur, follow me. We have something to do in the city,” he said and ran back to Avalon City with Ashur behind him. *** In the early morning, five kilometers south of Avalon City. Some security officers were patrolling and found thousands of fresh beast corpses with se

    The five youths look at each other. They can’t get angry or refute what Ares said. They are indeed weak, and they realize that. One in five youths ventured to speak to Ares. "Sir, our village is in a state of famine. The harvest in the garden failed due to the attack of wild beasts. That's why the five of us, as the strongest people in the village, tried to hunt for meat. Instead of the meat we got, we got lost and went deeper into the forest." "Take all the body parts from this wolf, and I will escort you back to the village. Ashur, come take them out!" he shouted, calling for his partner.From the thick of the tree emerged an adult man with an athletic body and handsome face but still lost to Ares' perfect look. The large green sword stuck behind Ashur’s back made him very dignified. Seeing the arrival of Ashur, the five youths who Ares was helping are a little wary. Then he decided to speak to lighten the mood, "You don't need to be wary. My brother's face is a little scary, but

    "Why don't you make this village yours? This village has all the conditions to complete your mission, sir." There is a system sound that makes his face brighten up instantly. He starts to speak, “Erick, I can help this village and make it much better than how it is today. But I have one condition." I haven't asked yet, but I already got a breath of fresh air. Of course, Erick and the others are pleased to hear Ares’ offer. Even though they are new to each other, they may feel he is not the wrong person. After all, if Ares is a bad person, what will he want to take anyway. The village is already poor, the children aren’t that attractive, and the women are weak and might not be enough to fill his charm. "If indeed you can make the condition of this village improve, whatever conditions you put forward, we will agree to it, sir," Erick said with confidence. "I want to be the leader of this village," Ares responded to his words directly without rambling. Erick and the others fall silen

    Ashur saluted Hera because he felt that Hera was much stronger than him. As for Hera, she stood up and just nodded at Ashur’s attitude. Before returning to the village, Ares checks his status. He has not seen his level for several days. He hopes that there will be a significant change in his strength. [Name: Ares Shaddai. He is Human at the age of 17] [Level: 440] next level [1,240/1990] [Strength: [867] [Agility: 869] [Vitality: 868/868] [Stamina: 869 / 869] [Luck: 874] [Mana: 5260/5260] [Points: [01] [Skills: Appraisal, Fireballs, Healing, Double Slash, Light Step] [Elements: Light, White Flame, Ice, Lightning] [Money Coins: 27,591,000] [Shop is open] [Subordinate: Hera & Ashur] "Two subordinates in my profile are stronger than me.

However, with the help of the system, it is not difficult for him to level up his power. Seeing the morning light starting to come

    Ten years they were passed very quickly. We saw Ares playing with his three sons, born almost simultaneously. Gaia, Sameera, Dione, and Lisa sat quietly while watching Ares's silly behaviour with their three sons. The atmosphere of the morning was utterly relaxed and filled with laughter from the three sons of the Lord.“My son, is it true that you don't want to become the ruler of the Great Nirvana Realm?” Lisa asked as Ares sat beside her and let her three sons play with their mother."I was not destined to become the ruler of the Great Nirvana Realm, even though I at that time had the key to becoming the ruler of that realm, but my soul refused to be in that realm and become the ruler there," Ares answered thoughtfully. Even if he forced himself to become the ruler of the Great Nirvana Realm at that time, it would only hurt his soul."Is the key still with you now?" Lisa asked, looking at Ares.“Ever since I refused to become the rule

Lisa and the women enjoyed the party that lasted almost half a day.“My wife, don't move too much! Remember, your pregnancy is still very young," Ares said to his three wives."My love, take it easy; we can't do anything that endangers our child's condition," Gaia replied on behalf of her two sisters."Okay, you can continue the party. I'm going away for a while because I have something to do,” Ares left after saying goodbye to his three wives, who returned to the party with Lisa and the other women.“System, do you think the entire universe is at peace after that person’s death?” Ares asked the system in his body.“The entire universe is currently in a period of short-term peace.

Don't you have to defeat me first to absorb my power?" Ares asked, still showing his relaxed attitude.“Hahaha, I will indeed kill you. With my current strength, no one will ever be able to defeat me!” Jupiter laughed as he said that."What's with your current strength? Have you achieved that? I don't think you've reached that realm yet, but even if you reach that realm, I'll still be able to beat you.” Ares laughed back at Jupiter with a sly smile that looked so annoying.“After defea

His brother destroyed another universe and would make this universe the third one he killed."You guys get ready; we’re about to enter the enemy's defensive territory!" a red scaly figure shouted towards the millions of soldiers behind him.The red-scaled figure was quite surprised when he felt the aura of power approaching him, but he was still confident that he could defeat all his enemies with the presence of the beast that was riding on him.

    “Do you know how strong the enemy will come to attack this place?

With strength slightly surpassing that of the four of them, the existence of Ares' assistants was undoubtedly a great help.“I'm surprised at Ares' loyal underlings.
