1 Leaving

On a small slope with a large tree, a boy found himself looking at a grave in front of him, while the sun barely had an hour out.

"Thank you very much for everything, grandfather, I am already 15 years old and I have managed to complete all your challenges, now I retire to fulfill my goal" The boy spoke to himself in front of the tomb, which was built by the same boy and his father on the same day that his grandfather died by natural causes.

They had to do it since they lived on the outskirts of the city since they didn't have enough money to live within the safe city walls.

The grandfather's tomb was under a tree that the boy's own grandfather planted and cared for with his wife.

The boy took off his military cap that he inherited from his grandfather and then gave a military farewell greeting to his grandfather, who had been a general until his last moments and participated in the two wars of humanity against the monsters.

The boy showed his exotic look that he inherited from his parents, but he was the incarnation of his grandfather, red hair, yellow eyes, and pointy ears, if the boy were seen by people from four generations ago, they would think he is cospleying some Elvish character, but nowadays, his appearance is the result of being surrounded by mana as well as by the decisions made by the first generation.

[First Generation] - The first People who came into contact with the mana and the system.

The boy held the greeting for several seconds and looked beyond the grave, he looked at the landscape which was the result of the hard work of his grandfather as well as the first two generations.

In front of the tree the hill was finished and the rubble of what was once a city could be seen now being conquered by nature itself while in the distance, a gigantic tower could be seen surrounding by a city and marking the limit of the city with great walls that keep monsters away, thanks to the blood stained on the walls, blood that was spilled during the years of the construction of the walls.

"As a special moment, now I will realize the awakening of my powers, something that I have repressing as you recommended grandfather" The boy stopped of meeting and put back his cap while showing a determined face, full of pride.

The boy took a stone out of his pocket and brought it to his mouth, then he swallowed it effortlessly since as soon as the stone touched his mouth, it became liquid.

"It tastes as earth" The boy looked a little disgusted by the taste, but he endured the feeling of irritation that arose throughout his body, which later turned into pain.

The boy looked excited when he noticed two ridges forming in his hands, one in each hand, one purple and the other blue.

"It's like grandfather said" The boy looked a little amazed at what appeared in front of him.

[Alexander Honor Lvl: 1 - Gift: Magic Manifestation - Lightning and Water - Alpha Generation]

[Choose Three Weapons and three aspects of your manifestations: Superhuman Regeneration, Feline Dexterity, Feline Smell, Feline Hearing, Night Vision, Myopia, Animal Instinct.]

Alex showed an expectant smile when he saw the system for the first time, which was how his grandfather had told him.

"I choose Bows, Two-Handed Swords, and Combat Daggers as my three weapons. Superhuman Regeneration, Feline Dexterity, and Feline Hearing as the three aspects of my Manifestations" Alex said confidently, he already knew which three weapons to choose, which he will only be able to use the rest of his life, as for the aspects of his manifestations, they were not difficult to choose.

[Your starting Weapons have been placed in your inventory] Alex's inventory was shown in front of him and he could see that three slots were filled with the respective weapon that Alex decided. he will only be able to use in the future, while the remaining 17 slots followed empty, there was also a money indicator as an option to buy more slots.

The weapons in Alex's inventory were a Katana, a wooden bow with thirty arrows and a military-type combat dagger, although their aspects were outstanding, Alex knew that they were made with normal metals from the previous era, what which makes them not useful for magical transmutation or rune engraving.

Those were the weapons with which he trains with the help of his grandfather. Alex removed the screen from the system with a thought while at the same time removing the katana from his inventory and carrying it to the side of his waist on the left side.

Alex replaced the old Katana he got in the abandoned city with the one given by the system and then retreated in the direction of the city Pyrgos.

Along the way, Alex went through what was once his home to only take his backpack with all his things, he was the only one who lived here, since his father lives in the GoldenGun Industry departments within the city, how He is a security guard of the most important industry in the city Pyrgos, he was granted his own apartment where he lives with Alex's mother.

The reason that Alex is not with them, is because of his sick mother, who consumes all the expenses of the family to keep her alive, her body began to reject mana, but her own body also generates mana, which makes her, She can't move much because of the strong pains that invade her body constantly, so she spends a long time passed out from the strong pains.

The cure for his illness is something that his father cannot pay with the expenses that he currently has, Alex knows that and he learned from his grandfather that it is cheaper to get the materials to make the elixir, he ran into the problem that Alex would have to climb the tower to find the materials of the Elixir.

Therefore, Alex was motivated and decided to train to be a Hunter and to enter the tower to find the materials, supported by his grandfather, he trained him for 8 years so that he didn't die easily or was an easy target for thieves or murderers hiding in the floors of the Tower.

Entering the tower was simple, he only needed to awaken his power and the tower would let him in, and that was something assured with his family history as well as his high compatibility with mana, but to avoid unnecessary losses, humanity filtered the entrance of people by giving them a challenge or exam, which was only to defeat a beast of level 5, this was to check that the person had the necessary combat skills or just luck.

It is not necessary to kill the beast, just knock it out or corner it, that is so, since not all have the same physical capabilities, but if your awakening doesn't favor you for combat but for support, the exam changes a little, they make you the support of someone else who takes the combat exam and the objective as Support is to know when to support them until they meet the requirements of your class.

Alex lit the house on fire, and that was because he would not return, apart from not wanting his memories to be stained by some vandals or bandits, he was not the only one who lives in the area, at two minutes of walk from his house, there is a small town of people who cannot live inside the walls, but still manage to pay to get 10 Hunters to clean the area of ​​monsters or any dangerous person.

In this almost lawless new world, the possibility of dying at the hands of another human is no longer a strange thing, especially further away from the city and its rules that are imposed by a group of people who call themselves Black Soldiers. .

Although Alex grew up protected by his grandfather, he learned the harsh reality during the little trips he made with his grandfather during his training.

Alex looked in silence for the last time at his grandfather's grave in the distance and then he walked away.

[Several minutes later]

Alex found himself not far from the entrance to Pyrgos, but he stopped because he remembered the money that his grandfather left him as well as that he could keep the heavy backpack in the inventory, although he had many things inside, the system only considers it as an object but it cannot be stacked with other equal backpacks, unless it has exactly the same content.

Alex put his hand on his chest to later take out some cards with different numbers of different values, most of them were 100 credits or 200 credits.
