8 Promise(corrected)
Meanwhile, at Orario, the appearance of Mark did not go completely unnoticed. In the depths of the guild there was a completely dark room, in the center stood a throne surrounded by torches, the only source of light. Sitting on the throne was an old man who looked almost like a statue because of how still he was, he was looking at the dark ceiling with a serious look while he was lost in his thoughts.
"Ouranos, did something happen?" -The solemnity of the scene was interrupted by the voice of a figure dressed completely in black, coming out of the shadows.
Hearing the voice, the man or rather Uranos, known as one of the most powerful gods and the first to descend into the world of humans, lowered his gaze and spoke to the silhouette in a slow but solemn voice.
"I feel a strange sensation, but I can't understand where it comes from."
"Has the dungeon started to destabilize?" - The silhouette asked with a tense air.
"No, the times are not yet ripe. Maybe it was just my imagination, in fact, now I don't feel anything anymore "-Finished speaking Uranos closed his eyes to concentrate on keeping the dungeon intact, while the shape disappeared from the shadows again.
What Uranos didn't know is that that feeling he underestimated would turn into his worst remorse.

"WHAT?!"
After hearing the guide's words, Mark couldn't help but stomp his foot in frustration.
"You are making a fool of me! First, Selene's soul is divided because it is damaged and now I am told that one of the fragments has in turn divided into several fragments whose number is unknown! "
[Host must understand that neither I nor 'god' can interfere with the laws of the various worlds, not even we could have known it would happen.]
Hearing his words Mark took a deep breath to calm down, getting angry without knowing the general context would only be unproductive.
"Fuuu, I understand it's not your fault, but tell me how it happened." -He asked in a calmer tone.
[What 'god' did not expect is that this world has a reincarnation system, albeit an obsolete one. So I can assume that when the fragments appeared, 2 of the 3 were reincarnated while the third for some reason failed and exploded.]
"So are you telling me there are 2 Selene?" - Mark asked confused.
[It is not possible for fragments to completely reincarnate, so they will have attached themselves to other souls.]
"Is there any advantage in this shitty situation?" - He asked irritably.
[The advantage is that the two main fragments will not deteriorate and therefore you will only be able to focus on the smaller ones, but there is a problem, as I said earlier some fragments ended up in Orario where the dungeon is located.]
"So are you saying that some fragments may have ended up inside the dungeon?" -Mark guessed
[Exactly, if you are lucky you will find the fragments in the close-ups, otherwise you will have to go deeper.]
Hearing the possibilities his expression turned ugly - "How bad would the situation be if I were unlucky?"
[In the past there were two families who had adventurers who were level 8 and 9, who reached the 70th floor and it is assumed that there are more. Now the problem is these two families have been annihilated and now no one can exceed the 50th floor, also at the moment the strongest adventurer is level 7.]
"I understand the situation but what I can't understand is why their levels are so low."
[Levels in this world are different than in games, here each level equals lv x 10, so if a person is level 9 it would be considered lv 90 in a game. Also, it takes a long time to level up, according to the information, it took a year for the fastest person to reach level 2.]
Hearing the guide, Mark was left speechless, if what he said is true, it means that in 5 years he had to be at least level 10, in case the fragments were at the bottom of the dungeon.
"Sigh I'm in a pretty bad situation eh, no weapons, no money, no food, and if I'm unlucky I have to go to the bottom of the dungeon. I find myself in such a bad situation that it makes me laugh "-he laughed ironically.
[There is an advantage after all this misfortune, during the explosion of the fragment I was able to calculate their frequency so if I am close to one I can find it. At the moment I can only track it if it is a few meters away but the more you collect the greater the range.]
Those few words managed to give Mark a happy smile - "Good news at last. Well, I can't stay here forever, I have to reach Orario and get a god's blessing so I can start strengthening myself. "
[Host you already have your 'god' status unlocked, although to level up you will need to get the blessing of a god of this world.]
"So if I want, I can see my data immediately?" - He asked curiously.
[The people of this world could not see their status without the help of their god, but with my help, you can, as long as you say status.]
"Status" -As Mark spoke on the help screen, various data appeared.

Looking at the stats, he noticed that they were all the same except for the agility and dexterity which were slightly better, but what caught his attention the most were the skills, and a frown formed on his face when he read the descriptions.
"Tell me guide, can wishes or memories affect the type of skill you get?"
[Your guess is correct. In your case, after the accident with the ship, you realized that even the best person could turn into a monster in certain circumstances, which is why you got 'golem heart' that strengthens your will. While the second skill is your desire to be strong enough not to lose the people you love.]
After a moment of silence, Mark sighed - "I had already understood this by reading the description of the skill, the shipwreck had a strong impact on my mentality" - He said while looking at the sky.
"It disgusts me how a person can transform himself to save himself. Let me be clear, I'm not a hypocrite who says I would save others in that situation, I also killed to save Selene. What disgusts me is the thought that I could abandon her to keep myself alive. For this reason, the mere thought of being together with other people or entrusting my life to them in combat makes me sick, after all, you never know what they could do if they were cornered. "
Looking down, into his eyes you could see a strong will coupled with the coldness that a normal person would not have.
"For this reason, it doesn't matter what happens to others, whether they live or die is none of my business, my goal is to bring Selene back to life and keep the promise I made to my parents. But to achieve my goal I have to become so strong that I never feel the desperation I felt in that lifeboat again. "
Clenching his fist tightly he made a promise to himself while looking at the horizon of his new life.
