Aiden was smiling after seeing the notifications, it was a notification that he hadn't seen in a long time, after that something that he hadn't received for months appeared again.

If Aiden was able to assist in killing one kobold, he would level up, he decided to do the quest after leveling up so it would make it slightly easier for him. He didn't know when the next horde of kobolds will come, although kobolds can locate you by sound, the wind barrier that the teacher made nullifies any kind of sound, so people outside the wind barrier won't be able to hear anything. Aiden wanted to drop something outside of the barrier but almost every teacher is stationed on each corner, and the moment his hand goes out of the barrier the one who set it up will be alarmed. Aiden couldn't wait patiently, his hair started itching and he started sweating. He was ready to go out in any time possible and cause a rampage. Though of course he refrains from doing that, although they are protected by the teachers, he doesn't know the population of it. Aiden also came to the conclusion that there's someone protecting them, the staff we're all confident to send students into a high level dungeon like this, Aiden was only half sure about it but seeing how they're going deeper and deeper the probability of someone being in gold ranked among them is getting greater. He was currently thinking of plans, they can be located by monsters with sounds, other than that, kobolds are strangely in like with gold, money, and more shiny things. Aiden wasn't rich so he couldn't do anything about it.
They arrived later facing a big gate where the lord of the dungeon resided, Aiden once red in a book, that people who can only open and enter the gate, are only people who are at the correct rank as the dungeon, if you were at a silver ranked dungeon, only people at the silver ranked can open it. The teacher also said the same information so Aiden didn't really didn't care to listen any longer. He saw some students bickering that they can open the door, once Aiden inspected them they we're bronze 3 ranks, he could only sigh, it looks like he wasn't the only one listening after all, after that, one tried to go out of the wind barrier, one of the advisers we're yawning and couldn't grab the boy in time, he was someone with a speed ability so he was really fast.
Once the boy made his first step outside, it made a lot of sound, it may not be discernible inside the wind barrier, but it made a lot of noise outside, this piqued the interest of many kobolds as they came running, there we're at least 3 groups of kobolds consisting of 6 each, meaning 18 in all. They immediately grabbed the boy back as they went out of the wind barrier, although it could attract attention, it was better to end it now. Aiden sneaked out of the barrier and grabbed one kobold to hide, he wrapped the kobold with the rope he always brought around him. While he assisted on killing the other ones.

[Level Up!]
[Level Up!]
[1 New Skill Learned]
[System Function Inventory Unlocked!]
Aiden paid no mind since he needed to do his work quickly and go back in the barrier unnoticed, while he was using the fire ability to slightly assist some kobolds, he was already using the other part of his fire to burn the other Kobold, he couldn't do anything since his brute strength wasn't enough to scratch a kobold he needed at least a sword. He sighed and just went to check on the skills and functions.
Twilight Conjuration: Create anything based on the wielder's thoughts, and feelings to the level where you can conjure whole cities. (As long as host has enough mana, making a planet is possible)
[New System Function Inventory: Able to hold items infinitely]
He was really in awe after reading the new things he got, was gonna try to use inventory later when he needs to pack up the rope, he stayed calm and collected not letting excitement get to him and imagined a sword that is able to slash within silver ranked monsters. It took him a lot of mana but he was able to make one, his only problem was he wasted 300 mana for a silver tier weapon. He was just lucky this time that he was able to level up in time and get good skills, something like this won't happen again since this time was just a lucky coincidence. He slashed the head of the kobold so he could return in the wind barrier, he also noticed that the people there were done and he succeeded in sneakily going back in , he didn't know how to hide the sword so he was about to put it in his inventory trying it along with the steel rope, but the sword instantly disappeared and he also noticed that his mana returned.

"Elements in Possession?" Aiden was confused, if his new skill had something like this, that means there we're prerequisites he needed before he could fully utilize it. He was guessing what prerequisites he needed to fulfill, judging by its name, "elemental" is he about to become avatar or something. He didn't know any natural way of gaining elemental powers so he deemed it that he would come across it in a quest sooner or later. The teachers didn't break a sweat fighting off the kobolds, and Aiden was able to sneakily go back in without someone noticing. They went back immediately after dealing with the group of kobolds, and the who acted on their own accord got scolded at the guidance office. Aiden was currently thinking of ways to get to level 7, he was only 100 exp away from leveling up. Defeating mobs or defeating someone can make him get exp, He could also defeat some people in game with first person experience though he was not sure, as long as it benefits him in any way it was fine. His current savings are only 1.68k dollars, he can only afford a place to rent once he graduates, and yet he still needed those vr sets thingies.
Unlike a public school, those kind of games are already installed in each dorms, there are even many excess setups that students may rent. He doesn't have any money to enroll at a private school, let alone talent, although he could go there as a scholar, there are too many talented people in those schools, there are already somehow 13 students who have reached silver ranked, and if Aiden wanted to go there, he would be having a hard time, and Aiden was only able to get stronger by an unknown power, he was currently thinking that he hoped his adoptive father just sent him to a private school and give him enough money for some years.
He decided to go out of the school this time, although people without any guardians aren't allowed, as long as he has permission and tells them what time he goes back, he will be eligible to go out, but he will be wearing a bracelet that will inform them and him that he needs to go back. It also works as a GPS so he'll be caught either way. The bracelet was wore by everyone who lived in the dorms, it would always be with them until they graduate so they know their whereabouts.
[Would You Like To Nullify The Effects Of The Bracelet]
[Y/N]
Aiden was in awe and joy, he immediately said yes, he wasn't sure but he would try it later, although if he gets caught, he wouldn't be able to go out till graduation, its still worth a try, the system have gave him a lot after all, maybe he could at least trust it. If that was gonna happen, he also made preparations for himself, he bought himself a jacket in order to hide the emblem of his uniform, the teachers told them that they must wear it at all cost but Aiden didn't care again. He also bought a mask in order not to be identified as a child, his mask had a crow's feather design on its right side.. If the GPS was disabled like the system said, then he could go anywhere he wanted, he went to the adventurer's guild that instant. He wanted to see if doing commissions can trigger quest events, but even if it didn't trigger anything, then killing monsters will work for him, and the more he gets into being an adventurer, the more he would be able to trigger events. By doing commissions, he was also able to earn money that way, although he wouldn't be able to earn money fast, it was still hitting two birds with one stone.
But first, he needed to be registered first. "Welcome To The Manas Adventurer's Guild, how may I assist you in this fine day?" A girl with white pale skin and cherry blossomed lips greeted him as he went to the counter. "I would like to register as an adventurer" Aiden replied so. "Please put your hand onto this orb, this will indicate what rank are you" She then showed the orb that was right beside him, when the orb was shown to him, he placed his hand as instructed.
[Would You Like To Change The Results]
[Y/N]
"Change results?" Aiden was dumbfounded, was he able to change the results of his test, is so then of course, he answered yes that instant, he was familiar with what results are to be shown since he has experienced this first hand, he was thinking what he wanted, he then wanted to be silver ranked, and as for the ability shown, make it creation, and as for his name, it would be Theos. When he thank of this thoughts, the orb glowed and showed the exact information.
Name: Theos
Rank: Silver 3
Ability: Creation
After that, a silver card was printed which also showed the exact same thing. The woman who was assisting him was dumbfounded by this skill. "Excuse me.. But I am not familiar of this skill, is it the offensive type, a defensive type, or supportive?" She asked. Aiden then crafted a silver ranked weapon which took a toll at him again, and explained. "I am able to create weapons according to my rank, if I was a gold ranked, then I could create gold tier weapons" Aiden lied, as long as he had the mana he would be able to create anything from his imagination. The woman then smiled and explained the adventurers guild to him. Where he would take commissions from, how to register them, and how to get the rewards. If he wanted to do a task, it must be something of his rank, he would then register it to one of those automated teller machine and insert the quest and his card there, it would then be registered to him showing on his card that he was currently doing it, it will then act as a GPS then tell him where to locate the area, and once he is done, he only needs to insert his card back and the reward will be given to him. He then went to the board of commissions and saw a lot of quests there.

Almost every commissions that he would lock on, a quest event would be activated, this meant that the commissions are quests to him which might also give him exp. He was feeling happy but he decided not to do it for now, it was still Tuesday and it would be weird if someone like him would disappear. Ever since disclosing his power, a lot of people has paid mind to him, he couldn't be ignored and people will notice if he wasn't home. He was now regretting that he acted too fast, he should've just told them when he sorted all his thoughts.
It was currently 8:57 p.m, Aiden told them that he would be home around 9 p.m - 9:30 p.m, the advisers just said that he would be home by 9. It was now time for him to test the effects of the system. He waited for that 3 longest minutes of his life and sure enough, it didn't ring, if it did rang, then that would mean he wasn't still at the school grounds, thankfully the security at his school we're lax at night, but it was still hard to sneak out since everything was very high tech, except for the interior. But with Aiden's system he was able to nullify its effects and go back, he could now go at any time he wanted, and also go out at any time he wanted, he was gonna take his first commission at Friday so he would still have 2 days to spare after that. He was now back at his dorm and just resting, he had now found a new way for him to continue getting stronger so he was happy, he took a bath while humming, cooked his food while humming, excited for everything thats about to come.
