"How's it, father? Did you succeed?"
"Hehehe, I did it! Now I've become a part of those called warriors. Let's go in; we will undergo the strength test."
Alexander and Skeba then walked towards a room, which was a place to measure the strength of warriors who had undergone awakening.
"Welcome; please tell us what abilities you have."
The officer stationed at the entrance to the warrior strength testing room greeted Alexander and inquired about the specifics of his abilities. This was to categorize Alexander's strength and determine the type of warrior he belonged to.
"I can summon a skeleton warrior."
Alexander answered briefly and then pointed to Skeba as his summoned creature for the officer.
"Alright, you may enter. I have verified."
Alexander and Skeba then entered the room. The room was quite large and magnificent. In the middle of the room, there was a dummy-like scarecrow made of iron, which seemed to be the target of the warriors' attacks to test their strength.
Alexander then, without hesitation, took aim and struck the dummy.
"BANG!"
Alexander's blow struck the iron, creating a sound of friction between Alexander's punch and the dummy.
The result of the blow could then be seen.
Inside the room, there was a screen that would display the results of the attacks to be produced by the warriors.
[Score: 30]
[Early Rank 0 Warrior]
Alexander's strength could be seen as equivalent to the Early Rank 0 Warrior, or it could be said to be the earliest stage of the warrior strength rank.
This was a normal thing regarding Alexander's talent, which was only in class E.
Alexander, at his peak, would only become a Peak Rank 0 Warrior if based solely on his talent.
But Alexander was different from ordinary human because he had a system that would help him reach the highest peak and become the greatest and strongest warrior.
Seeing the result on the screen, Alexander then tried again for the second time, this time by 'fusion' with Skeba.
"System, perform fusion!"
----
[Ding!]
[The host is about to perform fusion.]
----
"Bling!"
Alexander then vanished and was immediately inside Skeba's body, initiating the next attack.
"System, activate the Skull Slash Sword Skill!"
A long bone sword appeared in Alexander's hand, and he then made three consecutive slashes on the testing dummy.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
The sound of the sword and the dummy clashing reverberated, and shortly after, the result of the strength produced by the combination of Skeba and Alexander's powers could be seen.
[Score: 60]
[Middle Rank 0 Warrior]
Alexander smiled at his result, as he had expected his strength to double when fusing with Skeba.
"System, stop fusion."
----
[Ding!]
[Fusion will be terminated]
----
"Bling!"
Alexander then exited Skeba's body and was back beside Skeba.
Alexander decided to end the warrior strength test because he felt that was his limit for now.
Actually, Alexander was given three chances to attack, but he felt it was enough and the result wouldn't change much.
He then walked out of the room with Skeba. Outside, the officer was holding what looked like a card, which was an identity for the warrior candidates.
Even though Alexander was only rank 0, he was still a warrior with strength above ordinary humans.
"Congratulations, Sir Alexander Browman; this is your identity card."
The officer handed the identity card to Alexander, who accepted it with a smile on his face.
"Thank you very much."
Alexander then quickly walked out of the warrior awakening test building. It was the happiest day for Alexander.
Why wouldn't it be? He finally became the warrior he had been anticipating, even though he was only a Rank 0 Warrior, but he knew he would develop further.
Alexander then looked at his identity card, and it stated that Alexander Browman was a Rank 0 Warrior Necromancer.
It was natural considering Alexander had mentioned he could summon skeleton warriors, so the class he got was a necromancer.
"System, show status."
----
[Welcome to the strongest system.]
[Mission: Leveling up the skeleton warrior to become a great warrior]
[Mission duration: Unlimited]
[Reward: become invincible]
----
Alexander then looked at his status on the screen; he had to level up as quickly as possible.
"Humph, I have to level up quickly."
Alexander was fortunate to undergo the test at this moment. If he had done it when he was already equivalent to a rank 1 or rank 2 warrior, it would have aroused suspicion and malicious intentions from others.
He could have become the subject of study for individuals obsessed with researching warrior awakenings.
He had to wait to become strong, at least to become a Rank 5 Warrior; at that point, he would have the power to speak out in public.
"All right, now it's time to join a guild."
Alexander decided to join a guild to immediately receive a mission and level up.
"But which guild should I choose to join? Red Sword Guild? But Barnes is there. I better look around to see which guild is suitable for a beginner like me."
Alexander decided to look around at guilds first.
Actually, small guilds like Red Sword Guild were already suitable for him, especially since Anna, his childhood friend, was there. But if he joined there, Alexander would encounter Barnes.
It's not that Alexander was afraid of Barnes, but it might be a little difficult to deal with Barnes later, especially since Barnes often caused trouble for him.
Barnes himself had a brother who was currently a member of one of the world's largest guilds, the Tiger Guild. If something happened to Barnes, he would definitely appeal to his brother.
Although Barnes's brother in the Tiger Guild was just an ordinary member, it was strong enough compared to the warriors in the small guilds.
At least Barnes's brother would be a Rank 3 Warrior, maybe even more, because a Rank 3 Warrior was the minimum requirement to join the Tiger Guild.
Alexander and Skeba then quickly disappeared from around the warrior awakening test building and went to find a guild that would suit them.
