Raven saw the man at the top of his war horse. 'What is he talking about?' Raven thought. He cannot understand what the human were saying, but he notice his subordinates are slowly forming a circle around him.
Raven ignored the humans for now as he rubbed his system ring to check what he gained at the battle.

'I gained 10 levels in this fight and I finally have more than a hundred experience points to buy a language.' he thought.
Just as he was checking his gains from the battle earlier. A system notifications rang out inside his head like a siren warning people of an incoming tsunami.

Before he can regain his mind. His eyes turned white and he lost consciousness.
...
Earlier...
"Commander he seems to ignored you." a soldier said.
"Commander let's just kill him! He may be dangerous." an high ranking soldier said.
"Commander..."
"Commander..."
Almost all of his subordinates suggested to what to do to this ignorant lone human.
"All of you shut up!" shouted by the Commander, annoyed.
Then a soldier said something interesting that caught everyone's attention. "Commander look at his eyes! It changed!" a soldier near Raven said.
Hmmm?
Everyone look at his eyes and was surprised to see the unusual.
What they saw was a small circle that are rotating inside of his Iris. If you look closely as there's a runic letters inside the rotating circle. The color was blue with glowing light.
"What the hell is that?" the Commander said flabbergasted.
"I read this before in the library own by the Soraka church that serves the Goddess Soraka." said by a soldier. His statement was confirm by multiple soldiers who also read the same kind of book.
Then something happened. The body of the human infront of them was slightly vibrating and his eyes turned white. Then, he collapsed as a sign of lost consciousness.
"Sir he seems he lost consciousness." a soldier said.
"I know! Do you take me for a blind person?" shouted by the Commander.
"I dared not!" replied by the soldier.
"Carry him to the horse-drawn carriage! Let's go back to the fortress!" commanded by the Commander.
...
On the next day...
Raven slowly opened his eyes and saw he was lying down among the pigs. Then he saw Iron bars locking him up. Pigs oinking, pig poops scattered everywhere including on his body. Stock up straws and some straws sticking on his body along with the smelly poop.
"Where am I?" Raven asked himself.
"OH! You are awake?" a soldier who is on guard exclaimed.
"What?" Raven said as he couldn't understand a single thing.
He observes his actions and came to the conclusion that the soldier means no harm.
Click!
The soldier opened the door then throw left over food to the pigs and gave an apple to Raven.
After that the soldier left the cage and once again Raven was lock in.
He checks his body for an anomaly and found nothing. He remembered what happened to him before the passed out.
He was fighting a weird looking insects along with the humans. Then a system notification notified him of an error and the system got updated. After that... he could not remember anything.
He check his righ hand to his if the system is still here and found out that the system ring was no longer on his pinky, but instead it was located now on his right ring finger. He tried rubbing it but the system is not functioning.
Then he tried rotating it clockwise...

"It changed! The weapon shop is gone and got replaced by skill shop." Raven exclaimed.
Although I came back to level one. The system also got even better.
Unfortunately, it also became difficult to level up more quickly than before. But I can see now how much experience points I need to level up.
But why does it cost souls? What kind of souls? How can I get souls?
Raven have so many question to the new currency the system requires, suddenly he notice that there was a small metallic ball hovering beside his head.
Huh?
What is that?
He grabbed it and examined it.
Ding!
[You have activated an Arcane. An Arcane is a product equipped with mechanical life of the Mechanical God Black Star from Black Star Universe!]

Raven raised his eye brow at the good news he gained. He obtained a powerful artifact made by a God named Black Star.
Now he solved his problem to how to get souls or trap souls with the Arcane.
...
A few minutes later...
He was already finished examining the new system updated after its reboot.
Then he heard footsteps coming from a far. A heavy foot steps with metallic sound along with it.
'It seems they are here.' Raven thought.
A four full iron plated armored men stops infront of his cell. Then one guy opened the cell and batted Raven with a wooden club, and carried out the weakened Raven out of his cell. He carried him outside where people are align. They stops at the stage.
Raven came back to his senses after a while.
'Where am I? He asked himself.
Then he heard shouting using an unknown language that he could not understand.
The crowd raised their hands and shouting. Then suddenly a soldier picked up a strange liquid stored in a bowl.
"What is that!?" Raven shouted.
He could feel the fingers sliding on his back, writing something with a circle as the core.
Ding!
[A slave mark has been printed on you.]
[You have resisted!]
Raven brows tightened at the system notification he received.
'Slave mark? If the system didn't resisted it I will become their servants that would serve them until I die?' Raven thought as anger rose from within him.
Then the crowd went silent, a man with a slave chain ball on both of his hands came up the stage and put them at one of his legs.
He couldn't resist because if he resist he would have face hundreds of those strong soldiers in front t of him. If he face them right now he would surely die as he of now he was weak. Then, all of a sudden, his vision went black because he was blindfolded with a soot coated sack.
He was lead to the horse-drawn carraige along with other humans like him.
