Shing! (Sounds of sword slashed.)

-1 (Health points deducted.)

Ack! (Monster cries in pain.)

Tsk! This wooden sword really did little damage. Currently, the monster health points were 99/100. My attack could only deal 1 damage to it. I did all I can just to kill this monster named Pale Toad, but my damage ain't high enough. This monster is level 1 only. But, for a reason of me being so weak, it's so difficult to kill it, yet my peers could easily eliminate these monsters.

If I couldn't manage to kill this one, how could someone like me become a strong Magician in the future?

Right now, all my peers already at level 2 and above. Yet I'm stuck at level 0. What a shame. No, I don't care about shame anymore. The most important to me now is to earn money, to buy medicine, in order to cure my sister's illness.

If only I learned an attack magic skill. But too bad, I've got a self-healing magic skill instead. This magic couldn't even be of use to aid my sister's illness. And no one wants me at their party, because my skill is useless to the group.

Fwoosh!!

The Pale Toad flung its 1-meter tongue towards me. I jumped on my right side to avoid the attack that was approaching hastily.

It passed at me with a whoosh!

After I successfully avoided the attack, I slash it as many times as I can.

Zing!

-1

Zing!

-1

Zing!

-1

(Sword continues slashing while the enemy's life points decrease at every hit.)

I flung my wooden sword repeatedly at the monster's body, trying to kill it with guts without glory.

Currently, I am at the pond fighting the Pale Toad. This pond is outside a town where I live. Now the current health of the toad was at 96/100 HP.

My brows wrinkle a bit. And I feel my breathing is out of order already.

Our training will start on Monday, so it's better to gain more experience before it starts.

If I said experience, it doesn't mean the experience like in video games that you received after you killed a monster. What I meant by it is the actual experience in combat.

If you're wondering why I am fighting a monster outside the town, then let us turn back the time to where it all had begun.

About three and half centuries ago, the whole world came to an end in a devastating apocalyptic cataclysm.

In the last report of NASA, it was stated that the real cause of this destruction was the abnormal force that pulled down all the residing meteorites surrounding the earth planet.

Those meteorites were being pulled on the earth's surface and caused the rain of meteors. Thus, it was followed by high-intensity earthquakes and destructive tsunamis.

However, these three calamities were not just the reasons for world destruction.

One month had passed, humanity thought that the calamities had ended.

However, Something unbelievable happened next. Before they could grief upon the loss of their properties and especially their loved ones, another tragedy had started to peek out from the shadows.

The whole world was shrouded by mist. From this mist, grotesque and vicious-looking creatures came rushing to feed on humanities. They were mutated beasts of any type of animal.

Once again, humans were drowned in sorrows and despair.

At night, the cries of humans and howls of these mutated beasts were the sounds that could only be heard. Humans had no way to fight back this horror. Even modern weapons were useless against them.

Many days had passed, and the human's population plummeted to 1/5. Yet their suffering was far from ended. Even though nothing had resolved yet, with all the calamities that had happened, a new predicament had begun to bud.

Pandemic!

Humanity was pushed to the brink. The new kind of widespread disease had appeared. It killed millions of humans in just a month. No one comprehended the cause of the pandemic. Not even experts discovered the cause. Mostly the cause of deaths was because of Cell Deficiency.

Many years had passed since the calamity. The monsters from the mist are still causing havoc and the pandemic is steadily spreading. When humanity was about to give up a ray of hope finally brimmed.

A Filipino specialist doctor accidentally discovered a foreign cell inside a patient's body. The doctor was known as Dr. Eman Pablo. He said, "the cell is exceedingly vague, almost invisible from microscopic equipment. This cell exudes a negative kind of energy. And this energy causes damages to other cells in a person's body."

Thereafter, many experts began to search for a way to stabilize the foreign cell. Later on, they called the cell a Hollow Cell.

Ten years had passed, a UN researcher known as Prof Mana Gram, had discovered another type of energy from the fallen meteorites, which was the positive energy.

After so many years of extensive research, they finally found a way to stabilize the Hollow Cell, it was through resonance with the positive energy from fallen meteorites. They later named the meteorites as Gram Metal.

With the resonance of the two opposite energies, the Hollow Cell had stopped finally on destroying other cells. But before they could rejoice for this success, later on, they discovered that the patient's stability was still undue. These two energies were too strong for the human body to handle; therefore, another comprehensive research was established again.

Finally, after many years of researching, they finally succeeded in curing the pandemic. They invented a gadget that could break the limiter of the human body. Only by breaking the human's limiter that the patient could handle the toll brought by these two powerful energies, the Hollow Cell, and the Gram Metal.

With the help of the new gadget, everyone with the symptoms of Hollow Cells could level up their bodies to become stronger. Every level up was equated to a 1% breakthrough to their limiter. Now, the gadget was known as System Deity.

Not just humanity had stopped the pandemic, they also now have the means to fight back these magical mutated beasts.

Three and a half centuries had passed after world destruction. Numerous things have changed. One of the biggest changes was the world geography, from big to a small country, the Philippines was one of them. If before, the Philippines looks like a granny, now it looks like an egg! No more Mindanao, Luzon or Visayas. Now it's Upper Region(Luzon), Middle Region(Visayas), and Lower Region(Mindanao).

On the outskirts of a small town from the Middle Region of the Philippines, a young man was currently fighting a monster.

This young man was known as Yman Talisman. Almost 2hours now had passed since he was fighting the level 1 monster known as Pale Toad.

Currently, he flung his wooden sword rapidly in his hand to the monster at the front.

Heyah!

Zing!

-1

Zing!

-1

Shit! (He swore under his breath.)

But no matter how hard he flung his sword, the damage was still 1. Since the wooden sword has a +6 attack and his base attack was 5, it means that toad had 10 defense.

But in actuality, these status numbers are just a measuring tool. What's important was a person's ability on how he handled a fight.

    Yman woke up early on Sunday morning. Because he believes at the sayings that, "the early birds that get a choice which is more important than the worm itself".He knew this well, that's why he got up early on that morning because the one who came early at the venue of the evaluation exam would be able to choose a better starting skill. But for some reason, he had been dragged in the alleyway and ganged up by the group of five youths before he arrived at the venue.Therefore, he was late and had no choice left but to get the worst starting skill among the rest, the self-healing magic.He not only got a starting skill, but also a System Deity.The system deity was a round ball object as big as a golf ball. With designs of profound carving and imprint. To activate the System Deity, the owner must feed it with his own energy to light up all the imprint on its body, then it would spread automatically at the back of the owner's neck like a wris

    Yman and Sistela didn't stop bantering until they arrived at a rundown apartment.He was about to use the key when he noticed that it wasn't locked.|She's here.| He thought. The door made a creaking noise when he pushed it. "Yman, is that you?" asked by a voice from inside."Yes, Miss Pai, " he replied.A woman wearing an apron came out of the kitchen. On her hands were a bowl, a bowl of steaming porridge. A system deity was floating beside her. Based on her figure, she was in her 20's. She's pretty and sexy. She has chest-nut color and curly hair, which is shoulder length. She has beautiful eyes, and she stood at the height of 5"6. Same height as him."Oh, how's your evaluation exam..." She asked.

    He rushed to climb on the wall surface to peek outside. But before he came near to it, he was halted by one of the soldiers. The soldier was wearing steel armor and a helmet. Only his thick brows, round eyes, and bearded face were showing."Hey Kid, what were you doing? You're not allowed here. Go home, quickly, " said the soldier while showing a worried look on his face. His hands were gripping tightly on his bow. But Yman noticed that his quiver was empty.He lightly smiled and said, "sorry venerable soldier, I'm here to offer my help," Yman respectfully said.The soldier couldn't believe what he just heard. How could this young man be able to help in this hopeless situation? Where hundreds of monsters and with a mutated one also were rushing to attack this side of the town wall.Even with the high-level magicians that hurling high tier magic to the monsters outside, but the monsters still coming relentlessly.

    "Well, venerable Sir, what do you think?" He asked.After examining and feeding the arrow with magic, the soldier nodded in agreement.It looks like he was wrong. It certainly came from rank B+ Demon Wood."But kid, is it not still too expensive for an arrow? Even if this was made from rank B+, I think it is still overpriced, " the soldier said."Kufufu, venerable sir, what is money without life? Don't think you can redeem your life with points after you die. As long as you're alive, points or money will come back to you, as long as you work hard on it. But if it is your life that will lose, it will be lost forever," Yman said while his hands gesturing, it can't be helped."Well...... When you said it that way. I see no room for arguments."Later on, the soldier had decided to buy. Until more customers were coming to buy on him, at the moment, he sold 30 sets. And now he accumulated 300 points; he grinned from ear to ear. Now he could buy a decent skill. If Yman was not mistaken, ther

    The next morning, Yman wore his new uniform, a dress suit of black and white, paired with black pants. And a big backpack on his back. With him were his sister and Ms. Pai.

    And again, a bees-like murmur had broken out once again."Look, that mountain guy again," said someone around them. Yman couldn't even recognize now if who was talking or not."What a stupid person, it just a moment that he changed his seat and now already got into trouble, tsk!" someone grumbled and clicked her tongue at the end of her words.The girl looked puzzled as to what, why, or how the things turned out like this. Many people that had gathered around them were throwing insults toward the guy who bumped her.'Is this guy the most hated guy in the whole world?' She couldn't help questioning herself.She glanced at the guy who bowed 70 degrees. But it seemed this guy didn't care what other people were saying towards him. ."Uh-Uhm, i-it's fine, don't worry about it, I'm fine, " she nervously said while urging the guy to stop bowing because she felt scared in this kind of scenario.After the girl said that she's okay, Yman was about to leave when, "Kiko, look, look, Yman was here

    After Almina's speech, the next who climbed the stage was an aged man. The man had a slight beard on his face and medium length hair that was revealing the length of time he spent on this world based on its faded color that was no tinge of black. He stood at estimated 5'8 feet tall; with a lean body and exude gentleman demeanor. He was wearing a dress suit colored by black and white, and the emblem of Middle Region Magic Academy was distinct on the left chest area of the dress he was wearing.When the man stood straight at the center of the stage, every trainee went silent, with only their indistinct gulping sounds were slightly discernible. Every trainee staring intimately with a closed mouth; while awe-inspired at the man on the stage.He slowly lifted his arm holding a microphone toward his mouth. When the mic stopped at 3 inches away from his mouth, the man opened his mouth. His voice wasn't high or low. First, he introduces himself, then, he greeted everyone, which is followed by

Never in his wildest dream to be able to see an actual evolution phase of a beast.Seemingly, beasts or monsters will undergo an evolution phase when their battle experience reached a certain threshold.Currently, Yman was downed on his butt on the cold pavement ground, while staring at the Evil Rat in surprised and without batting an eye.

    Yman scratches his head and forced a dry laugh when he realized that the water passage was still too small for the monster to pass through.He remembered what Mrs. Merced (the woman who issued the quest) said to him. That when he reached the dead end, there was a hole where a person can pass through to his left side. But Yman could not see it, the hole that she mentioned.Suddenly, he heard Sistela's call: He then glanced at the map that was hanging steadily above him. He noticed a thin layer of the wall outline. Based on the map, it was located two steps away from his left side."Must be a camouflage." He muttered and summoned his spear from Cyber Storage..He then pokes the part where the thin layer on the map was shown.

On the opposite side of the entrance, there was a big dumpsite area that could be seen a little distant from the river-dam. The place was known as West District.At the dumpsite, he could see some smokes that were flying towards the sky and resembles the clouds as they continued to hover higher.After Yman stepped in the entrance, he asked his deity to activate the radar.Sistela replied:He said: "It's not sudden. It's better to have a perfect mapping from the entrance towards the farthest area that we can reach." She questioned him.He scratched his face and replied: "Don't worry, we sure to leave the place before it happened.."Hearing what he said, she resigned then followed what he wants and activated the radar without further retorts.But she really was worried if she emp

It covered his body like a robe. His mouth and nose were covered by a mask to get rid of the pungent smell that might invade his throat.
