In the center of Anvel City, outside an old building, an elderly woman was struggling to move her belongings into the old building.
Seeing this from a distance, a young man in his 20s went to help the elderly woman.
The young man with red hair and red eyes approached the struggling elderly woman.
"Ma'am, let me help you carry these things," he said.
The young man immediately took the items from the elderly woman's hands and quickly moved them into the old building, along with the other items.
The old building was actually a bakery run by the elderly woman herself.
"Thank you, young man. You are very kind. It's rare to find young people like you these days."
"Hehe, it's nothing, ma'am. There are still many kind young people out there better than me," the young man said.
After helping the elderly woman, he said goodbye and quickly disappeared from her sight.

[Ding!]
[The host has completed a good deed for today.]
----
A blue screen appeared, along with a sound, after the young man finished helping the elderly woman move her belongings into the bakery.
"System, show status," the young man murmured.
----
[Welcome to the Strongest System]
[Mission: Do good deeds for 10 years]
[Mission Progress: 1 day left]
[Reward: The strongest mystery box]

Seeing the screen in front of him, Alexander felt happy when he saw the mission progress displayed on the screen.
"Only one day left until I get the reward from the mission I've been doing for almost 10 years," Alexander murmured happily.

[10 years ago]
[Anvel City]
The city of Anvel is one of the largest cities on the northern continent. It is densely populated, with new settlers arriving daily and deciding to make this city their home.
Their reasons for coming to Anvel are clear: the city is protected by one of the largest guilds in the world, the Tiger Guild.
The Tiger Guild is one of the strongest guilds globally, ranking fifth among all the guilds worldwide. With thousands of warriors as its members, this guild can be considered the largest in the world.
Not only do they have a vast number of members, but their leader is also one of the Rank 7 Warriors. A Rank 7 Warrior is a super-ranking warrior who can level several cities on their own.
The requirements to join the Tiger Guild are incredibly tough; one must be at least a Rank 3 Warriors to be considered.
The influx of people to Anvel City is not just due to the protection offered by the Tiger Guild but also because the world is currently overrun with monsters emerging from world holes that suddenly appear.
These world holes suddenly appear in the world and look like bottomless chasms. No one knows how deep these world holes go, and people now refer to them as black holes because their depths are unknown.
After the appearance of these black holes, various monsters began to surface from within, causing widespread chaos and despair.
When the world seemed hopeless, some humans started to awaken their mysterious powers.
These awakened individuals possess superhuman abilities beyond ordinary human imagination. They can cast magic, have indestructible physical strength, transform into human-monster hybrids mimicking various animals, and have many other powers.
These awakened humans are called warriors. Initially, only adults experienced awakening, but now even children as young as twelve years old can awaken. If a child does not awaken by the age of twelve, they are destined to remain ordinary humans.
The monsters emerging from the black holes even established their own kingdoms in various parts of the world, forcing humans to remain vigilant against monster attacks at all times.
Humanity has united to fight these monsters and reclaim territories that the monsters are attempting to seize.
In a warrior awakening test building located in Anvel, a boy with red hair and red eyes stands out among the crowd.
The boy is seen waiting in line to undergo the warrior awakening test.
"Finally, my time to shine has come."
The red-haired boy says it enthusiastically, eager to awaken and become a warrior.
The queue for the warrior awakening test is something eagerly anticipated by twelve-year-olds worldwide, as it will determine their future fate.
Will they be respected and revered, or will they become the outcasts of society, looked down upon by the world? In a world where power speaks, those who do not awaken are considered worthless by the current society, akin to trash.
"Next in line, step forward!"
The awakening test officer called the next person in line for the warrior awakening test.
The red-haired boy finally stepped forward for the awakening test, the moment he had been waiting for.
"Place your hand on the measuring orb!"
The officer instructed the boy to place his hand on a measuring orb.
The measuring orb detects whether someone has awakened. The boy followed the instructions.
Moments after placing his hand on the orb, it shone brightly, indicating the test was complete.
"Alexander Browman"
"The gamma fluctuation detected is 0, and you will remain an ordinary human!"
The officer announced loudly.
"Next!"
The officer immediately dismissed Alexander and called the next person in line for the warrior awakening test.
Alexander was shocked and couldn't believe the results he received. The moment he had been eagerly awaiting did not turn out as he had hoped.
"Hahaha, look at that kid; he was so excited earlier."
"Yeah, you're right. What's the point of being excited? He's just trash and will always be trash in society."
"Hahaha."
"Hahaha."
Mocking and ridiculing voices echoed around Alexander, who hung his head in despair after hearing the test results.
Alexander walked out of the awakening test building, his head down and his mind blank, as if his world had crumbled.
"Will I become societal trash and never awaken?" Alexander murmured to himself.
As Alexander walked out of the building, a group of boys who had mocked him earlier suddenly approached.
"Bang!"
A kick sent Alexander flying several meters, landing on the ground.
"You trash, how dare you be so confident earlier!"
"Hahaha, this kid was overconfident. Let's teach him a lesson!"
"Bam!"
Alexander was beaten by a group of boys he didn't even know. He tried to dodge, but couldn't with so many of them. He was helplessly beaten.
"Dream on about becoming a warrior, you trash!"
The group of boys left Alexander lying on the ground, battered and bruised.
Alexander lay there for a while, his body covered in bruises from the kicks and punches delivered by the group of boys.
The world is cruel, he murmured.
As he lay there, helpless and despondent, suddenly, a blue screen popped up before him.

[Ding!]
[Congratulations! The host has received the strongest system.]
[Start completing missions to begin the path to invincibility.]
[Mission: Do good deeds for 10 years].
[Reward: The strongest mystery box]
----
"Wow, what is this?" Alexander said it in surprise.
It's like something from a game or fantasy novel, Alexander thought.
Alexander then looked at the blue screen, reading the words displayed. Could it be that I received a system like in games and fantasy novels? Alexander wondered.
"System, show status," Alexander said shyly, afraid he was just hallucinating after being beaten up by the boys.
The blue screen in front of him then changed, displaying a status screen as Alexander had requested.
----
[Welcome to the Strongest System]
[Mission: Do good deeds for 10 years].
[Mission Progress: 3650 days left]
[Reward: The strongest mystery box]
----
Alexander was astonished as he saw the screen in front of him change according to his thoughts. He, who had previously been desperate and had no hope because he was declared to be just an ordinary human, became excited again.
"Hahaha, this is the moment for me to become the strongest warrior!"
Alexander clenched his fists and said joyfully, 'This is my lucky day after a bad one'.
