Year 1202 of the Altona Continent

In a corner of a slum in the main city of the Melville Empire.

In a dilapidated hut, a sixteen-year-old child was sitting on the floor. He was actually comprehending magic without anyone's guidance.

Suddenly, an accident happened. Rollin felt that the magic riot in his body was no longer under control.

As his body continued to expand, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

In the space of consciousness.

[The God and Demon Omen System has awakened. The system is loading...]

[The system is loading. 10%, 20%...]

[The system has successfully loaded. Congratulations to the host for awakening the God and Demon Omen System and obtaining the identity of the Ruler of the Abyss!]

Since ancient times, the Ruler of the Abyss had been in charge of the darkness of the entire world. All the darkness of the world belonged to him.

This part of the Altona Continent was usually under the control of the subordinates of the Ruler of the Abyss. The other half of the continent was under the Holy Knights of the Holy Church.

The Melville Empire was located in the middle of the two top powers of the world.

There were not only humans but also various demi-humans. Basically, all the species would be in this region.

As a human who had transmigrated from another world, Rollin originally wanted to rely on his own strength to change his current situation.

However, he did not expect to encounter such an accident while training his magic.

After the system awakened, it did not take long for Rollin to wake up.

Although he had heard many voices just now, he still did not understand what had happened!

How had he suddenly become the Ruler of the Abyss?

The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to rub his chest. The feeling of swelling just now was very uncomfortable.

But now, the painful feeling had completely disappeared.

"As expected, I still can't buy cheap magic books on the market. If I wasn't lucky this time, there might not be a next time!"

Seeing that he was completely fine, Rollin stood up, patted his tattered clothes, and walked out of the shabby house.

The outside was still filled with the aura of death, and the roadside was filled with lifeless humans lying on the roadside waiting to die.

Looking at these people waiting to die, Rollin could not help but mock, "Maybe a kind-hearted person will pass by here and give them a few copper coins to let them have a good meal."

Then, he turned around and walked into the distance.

Work was something that Rollin had to do every day. If he did not work in the slums, he would basically be left to die. No one would pity the people here.

Even if he helped the rich to shovel feces, the money earned was enough to let anyone who had no food survive.

Today's task was easier than usual. He only went to the home of a young noble to help him clean up.

Of course, it was not just any cleaning!

Melville was a society where people coexisted with the demi-humans. There would be many human nobles who would buy demi-humans slaves and bring them into their homes to do whatever they wanted to do.

And Rollin's task was to get rid of all the demi-humans' corpses.

Soon, Rollin arrived at the designated location. This was not the main residence of the nobles, but a hidden hut.

Most nobles had less power, but they could not control their hobby.

Then, they would rent a soundproof room outside and bring their demi-human slaves here for violence.

After they were tired of everything, the nobles would play with their demi-human slaves to death, and then they would hire some people from the slums to help them clean up.

When he entered the room, the floor was already covered in blood. Many of these demi-humans had been thoroughly played with.

Rollin picked up the cleaning tools at the side and swept the bodies that were scattered all over the place into one place.

Then, he used a very large woven bag to pack all of them up.

After all of this was done, the person who introduced the work would prepare a cart for Rollin and let him dispose of the bodies as he pleased.

Usually, these bodies would be buried in the mass graves after they died. However, the times were different now. There were poor starving people everywhere.

Rollin transported the bodies directly to the slums and threw them at a designated place. When he retreated from the cart again, countless people would surround him from all directions. They had not eaten for a long time. When they saw the meat, they did not even think about snatching it and started eating!

Rollin looked from afar and did not care.

He walked to a small river and cleaned up all the bloodstains on the cart. Then, he returned the clean cart.

Each time, the person who assigned the task was a short-legged old man. He did not know what he had experienced when he was young.

His face was full of scars and he was blind in one eye.

"Yo! You're working pretty fast today. Are you done tidying up the room?"

"Of course! When I left, I specially used a magic cleaner to clean up the room. It's clean inside."

After Rollin finished speaking, the man placed a silver coin on the table.

"You've done well recently. Your income is a total of 80 copper coins. I'll give you more as a reward."

Rollin picked up the silver coin and quickly hid it in his pocket. It was too dangerous for a child to carry money, and it was a silver coin.

"Kid, you've been working under me for a year. I still don't know your name!"

"Can you tell me today?"

Rollin thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to him, "Rollin!"

"Yes! That's a good name. Come early tomorrow. I have other tasks for you!"

"It's best to change into a clean set of clothes. The pay this time is quite high."

After hearing that, Rollin directly left the place.

This person was the famous butcher on this street. Rollin had already forgotten his exact name. The only thing he knew was that as long as there was money, he would do anything for others.

However, in this poor area of the Empire, the only thing he could do was to help the nobles wipe their butts.

The poor area was located in the southwest of the Empire. It was very close to the most prosperous street in the Empire, but it was not connected to it.

This was because the commoners did not have the right to enter the ordinary living areas, like the residential areas of other nobles, the palace, and so on.

The first thing he did when he returned was to buy some hard bread from the only food shop on this street.

Then, he walked to a quiet river and ate all the food in his hands.

If he didn't do this, and he took the bread home with him, before he reached home, the food would be taken away.

After eating, Rollin hid one of the two pieces of bread in his arms and walked to the other wooden house.

Before entering, he looked around and saw that no one was there. Then, he walked in.

In the corner, there was a little girl wrapped in a black cloth. Her pupils were dilated and she was laying there waiting to die.
