Ambivalent but Resolute.

He had no idea he was being captured, was dizzy, and noticed a swarm of flying centipedes in the distance. He was mistaken for an animal. Was skewered as well. It just felt like he was floating in the air. And then he pulled away. Fell asleep after seeing the extent of the forest. He did not realize that they had been traveling for three days before he awoke. When he woke up about an hour into the journey, lightning struck them, and all the centipedes fell, including him. A monster with rank S hunted them down. When they got him on the ground, he was covered in blood. The Rank S monsters entered the centipedes' bodies one at a time, taking only the edible parts. He could not move because he was still dizzy and hungry, so he just watched what was happening around him. When the monster approached, someone launched a powerful attack on the Rank S monster, which flew away. He appears to be a demon in front of him but without wings, as well as a tall man without horns. He stopped breathing and just stared. Suddenly, the monster retaliated, and not one but three Rank S monsters rushed toward the demon.

He was simply watching the battle between powerful creatures. made comparisons with himself. became discouraged after witnessing what he saw. felt the distance between each other's powers. Tears began to flow. Meanwhile, the monster's head unexpectedly rolled to the side. In less than ten minutes, three Rank S monsters were eliminated. He saw that the monster's heart had been eaten. The demon left without noticing him, perhaps because he was wet with blood and could not smell him anymore. inhaled deeply but was still unable to move. Later on, he noticed something behind his head. All of a sudden, the mysterious man appeared again.

[[Mystery Man]] I apologize for the delay, Young Abbadon… What was the outcome of the match? Aw, I wish I'd been there for that fight. You are suffering from an ailment. Are you okay?

[[Shaji]] Are you stupid? Of course! What brings you here?

[[Mystery Man]] To help you, I hope the boneless chupapa is successful. I'm curious to know how it works out.

[[Shaji]] Please assist me first before I can answer your question.

[[Mystery Man]] I'll boost your health and mana. Please remove your clothes.

[[Shaji]] Do you have any food?

[[Mystery Man]] I don't have any but let's grill the meat.

The mystery man asks about the free booster again while they are eating.

[[Msystery Man]] Did you use the chanting booster?

[[Shaji]] I've used up all of them. Hold on, do you know something about this? Are you responsible for this?

[[Mystery Man]] I'll explain it all to you from the beginning. Do you remember the moment the dog chased you? That was me. Mop Mop, the palace summoner, is with me to stop you from achieving hero status. I instructed Miss Bhacut to provide you with the booster. Are you aware of free boosters? That is the pure-blood demon lord Abaddon; it's just a drop of blood; we mixed it with a mana and health booster. because if you are given a lot, you can't handle it. Now What kind of power did you experience when you used him?

[[Shaji]] The power is immense, and it is a demonic ability., I choose not to wield again. The enemy is still alive but forcefully pulls the bones.

[[Mystery Man]] It is an honor to have you, possessing such extraordinary abilities, as the conduit of Lord Abaddon's power. The wait was agonizingly long, but you are the sole recipient of a unique, rare ability. The issue is your human blood. You struggle to maintain physical exertion for extended periods. It's alright. Here's some advice for you. Seek out a party that can assist you—capable of withstanding and defeating powerful opponents. The presence of Abaddon's blood is abundant. Their strength is impressive. This is something you will need to deal with.

[[Shaji]] A while ago, some terrifying monsters collided here, one of which I saw up close like a devil. Perhaps he is one of the demons bearing Abbadon's blood.

[[Mystery Man]] One of those Abaddon was responsible for the subject's demise I'm confident about it. I have something to offer, but it's up to you to decide if you want it. Before we continue, I want to make sure you understand what you're doing and why you're here. Lastly, tell me why you deserve it.

[[Shaji]] I cannot answer anything sanely because all I want is to live well and without trouble.

[[Mystery Man]] Come here and eat this meat. This is what will cause your skills to increase.

[[Shaji]] I'm sure that might be nonsense again.

[[Mystery Man]] haha… This is important for you, and your future depends on it.

[[SHaji]] I will eat it, as long as nothing bad happens to me.

He Consumed entirely.

[[Mystery Man]] The meat originates from the demon's body. Hehe…

He sat back and did nothing. Felt a strong urge to vomit but resisted. He became so dizzy lost his sight and fell asleep for two hours. Remain dizzy even after waking up. Realized the person he was speaking with was no longer there. He observed that the only creatures in the area were the dead monsters and himself. He collected the bones of the Rank S monster. And then suddenly realized, he had a Retreat portal device with him and used it. and went back to the area of edible animals, which was the first place he visited. Exhausted from his travels, he collapsed at home and slept for two days. The next morning he opened his eyes. stared at himself in the mirror. He checked to see if his face looked evil. He finished breakfast and then went back to his room to look at the status.

[[Shaji]] I'm feeling overwhelmed by this situation. I'm not sure what I'm capable of handling right now… 'STATUS' Whoa! Good news. My level has improved. MP, HP, and Speed. My knife skills have also reached the highest rank, achieving A-level proficiency. Activate the new Whirlpool skill. Wait… Where is my Unique skill Calabera Esqueleto pull? What's wrong? it doesn't matter, that's okay. I no longer require such abilities; it's frightening, as if it were cruel. Now, what else should I do? I have some upsetting business with the Blacksmith; therefore, I'm going there first.

Inside the Blacksmith Shop

[[Joseph]] Good to see you again, Sir! It's as if you need to pay me something.

[[Shaji]] I can pay you, but I don't have enough gold right now. Would you be interested in trading some bones for payment?

[[Joseph]] depending on the monster's bones. what kind of bone is that?

[[Shaji]] Wait, I'll take it out.

Joseph was shocked by the sight of the powerful S-Class Bal Bal (the Undead Giant).

[[Joseph]] One BaL BaL. That settles your debt, plus I'll pay you.

[[Shaji]] whoa! Really!? Two more are available, buy one and use the other to make a blade or sword.

[[Joseph]] Deal, sir; I will take care of it. Back in 5 days. I'll buy the two for one thousand and five hundred gold. Is that okay?

[[Shaji]] 1,500 Gold is a terrific value. Okay, Sir. I agree with our agreement. I will be back in five days.

[[Joseph]] It was a pleasure doing business with you, Sir Shaji.

[[Shaji]] I decided to start searching for someone to work with me. Of course, I'll head to my favorite area first lol... eating barbecue while watching attractive chicks walking in the park. one of the good things in life. Look at that one; it's exceptional. I mean, she is gorgeous. It looks like I'm going to drown.

Shaji was walking around the city until he stumbled upon Bea's school. He looked about, and shortly a carriage stopped in front of him, so he moved to the side. Miss Bea and her best friend were in the carriage. Miss Bea noticed him.

[[Miss Bea]] Sir Shaji, what are you doing here? I almost didn't recognize you!

[[Shaji]] How are you doing, Miss Bea? I just strolled about. I'd like to have coffee in the coffee shop. He was so shocked that he couldn't say anything. So, he made an excuse to have coffee.

[[Miss Bea]] I am sorry, Sir Shaji. By the way, this is Roxy, my classmate and best friend. Roxy, this is Shaji, the person we were talking about.

[[ Shaji]] Nice meeting you Miss Roxy, I invite you to coffee next time. Miss Bea, Miss Roxy, you seem to be late, go!

[[Miss Bea]] Goodbye, Sir Shaji. We'll have coffee next time, the three of us.

[[Shaji]] That took me by surprise! Do they think I am handsome? No! In any case, Roxy is beautiful. Does she have a boyfriend? She was also blessed with a melon…

As he walked, he stumbled upon the orphanage, and a flood of memories washed over him, bringing tears to his eyes.

[[Shaji]] How are they? I'm curious to see if this is the same place as ours.

[[Miss Tyron]] (orphanage administrator) Good Day Sir! Who will you be visiting?

[[Shaji]] I apologize for entering without permission. I'm not going to visit anyone, and I suddenly remembered when I was in foster care.

[[Miss Tyron]] The entire inside is visible when you stroll around. You are a sympathetic, charming young man who never forgets the past. Feel free to look into your past. Despite how miserable your life is, if it turns unorganized. If you have strong faith, destiny will change.

[[Shaji]] Thank you, madam. you are also a very good person

In the final room, Shaji spotted a scrawny girl of about fifteen. alone. He sensed something odd emanating from her. However, he chose to ignore it.

[[Miss Tyron]] How's everything going? You sound emotional, but it's lovely to think back on those memories. right?

[[Shaji]] You're right, ma'am, I want to help them, but I don't know how yet. Can I adopt the girl in the last room? Is that possible?

[[Miss Tyron]] Would you be interested in adopting as well? We can discuss this in my office.

Inside the Office

[[Miss Tyron]] Okay sir, Fulfill the agreement, plus 100 gold will then be granted.

[[Shaji]] Wow! adopting is not a joke; it's costly. However, I'm determined that there is no turning back.

[[Miss Tyron]] Wait a few minutes, and she'll be here. I'll have my staff fix it right away.

20 minutes ago

[[Miss Tyron]] Here you go, I apologize for the wait. Sir Shaji, this is Joyce Lhabo. Miss Joyce your new boss, Sir Shaji. Be supportive of him. Sir! Thank you, I was surprised we ended up adopting, but I'm happy someone else has found a good person to adopt.

[[Shaji]] I wasn't expecting to end up like this. However, I'm happy I came across what I had been searching for.

Shaji's desired outcome was realized by the end of the day.

[[Shaji]] Joyce, Let's find something to eat.

Inside the Restaurant

[[Shaji]] Joyce, how are you? I chose you because I know you are hiding something unique, I understand your concerns, as I also grew up in an adopted home I assure you, I have no bad intentions.

[[Joyce]] Thank you, sir, for adopting me. I had lost hope, but it's good that God heard my prayer.

[[Shaji]] From now on, just call me Angkol (Uncle), go ahead and eat some more, and then we'll buy your stuff. By the way, what magic do you possess? I smell you strangely.

[[Joyce]] Angkol Shaji don't make noise; I'm a necromancer.

[[Shaji]] What kind of magic is that?

[[Joyce]] I command the spirits and the dead to appear.

[[Shaji]] I'm surprised, that's why I smell different on you, it's a strange thing you can do. By the way, I intend to form a party. The guild requires a minimum of three members. Would you be interested in joining me?

[[Joyce]] Absolutely! I'd love to join, and my ultimate goal is to become a hunter. Could you please include me, Angkol Shaji?

[[Shaji]] That's why I took you of course.

After finishing their shopping and meal, Angkol Shaji helps Joyce settle into a room at Bengbang Inn, where he also resides.

[[Shjai]] I want to see your power, Joyce, so tonight we'll go to the field.

At the forest hunting field.

[[Joyce]] Alright, Angkol Shaji, as long as you stay fearless hehe… just stay put. (Begin Chanting) To my ancestors, I am Joyce, the inheritor of your lineage. I humbly request a warrior's spirit, 'TUBER', the spirit of the forest.

A horrifying creature materialized from the shadows, swiftly approaching them within a matter of seconds. Joyce forced the beast to drink the blood after cutting his palm. Joyce's soft words sparked a change in the creature's eyes, which now glowed with the predatory gleam of a hunter. At approximately five minutes past, the creature carried three Rank B monsters.

[[Shaji]] It only took five minutes with three Rank B Monsters. You control a highly strong creature. Joyce, this is your true power. It served as a huge assistance to our party. I'm thankful I didn't make a mistake in choosing you. We've had enough tonight, and tomorrow we'll plan our next steps. Oh, I almost forgot to take care of the monsters. 'Items Box' we can still sell it.

The following morning, inside a coffee shop near the guild building. The two pleasantly enjoyed coffee and talked. A lovely woman appeared and stood alongside them.

[[Roxy]] Good morning, Sir Shaji. Good morning to you as well, Miss.

[[Shaji]] Miss Roxy? I'm so sorry I didn't recognize you immediately. Cause you are not wearing a school uniform. What are you doing here?

[[Roxy]] I just visited my aunt. She owns this shop, which is why I am here. By the way, how about becoming a hunter?

[[Shaji]] I'd like to form a group, and I'm seeking at least three additional members to join. This is Joyce, by the way, my newest team member.

[[Roxy]] Sir Shaji, please listen. I'm the person you're looking for. Despite being a hunter for three years, I don't hunt very frequently. To be honest, I'm here to revive my Hunter's Guild license. I've chosen to pursue it. Luckily, you're here; perhaps this is my fate.

[[Shaji]] How about your studies? You should complete them first. If you really want to join. Ask your parents' permission first.

[[Roxy]] I'll inform them, Sir Shaji. I'm confident I'll secure the necessary approval. Let's head to the guild and register our group. I'm excited!

[[Shaji]] What do you think we should take, Joyce?

[[Joyce]] Go get her, he's funny hehe...

[[Shaji]] Because you are gorgeous and because you are from Melondia, I will accept you.

[[Joyce]] Angkol What is Melondia, and is it edible?

[[Shaji]] Yes, it is edible! I mean, no! It's a kind of place you can play. Please Don't ask again Joyce.!?
