Chapter 1 - Morning of the awakening

Ash wakes up blurry vision as he rubs the sleep out of his eyes, his black hair ruffled and messy. He quickly jumps out of bed and throws clothes on excited to go to the temple for his awakening. A ritual all 18 year olds have to do, it tells them what skills, level and stats they have so they can better pick a job or be selected to work in the royal family or the church.

Those with skills in magic will often be given jobs directly with the priest of their towns, those with skills in fighting will be offered jobs with various army units, both guarantees the person a comfortable life at minimum.

Those with other skills will often go and become adventurers to make a name for themselves or work in businesses that their skill relates to. A key point is levels even if your skills are low level or rank if your current or maximum level is higher than average then the royal family will offer you jobs like maid service or garden maintenance for you to work up to the royal army or church.

Ash is hoping that he fits into any one of the categories so he can work with the church or the royal family.

He quickly runs towards the church and fills in the paper work with the priest.

There he stands in the centre of the ritual room with the priest of the church as magic circles form underneath him, a quick light blinds Ash, before a card appears floating infront of Ash. Picking up the card Ash can feel new information about himself flood into his brain.

The priest walks over to Ash and asks "can you open your stat screen so we can see your stats and skills?"

Ash nods and takes his card and double taps on it with his finger. Instantly a panel of green light appears with lots of information and writing.

*Black hole

Farming

Level: 8

Effects: can increase crop quality by 1 stage 80% of the time.

After the priest and Ash reviews the stat screen the priest says, "You may go, unfortunately you have no skills or potential the royal family or the church is looking for."

Ash furrows his brow and leaves quickly. He looks at his stats once home and is confused by his level being maxed out. He then looks at his stats. From his understanding those at level one have around 20 in all stats but he has 50, and skill points he furrows his brows, these are aquired after reaching level 50 every level you gain 1 skill point and it levels up a skill instantly.

He clicks on the green screen on his black hole skill and clicks level up.

*Black hole

Level: 2

Effects: Can consume things to increase in power, the things consumed are destroyed instantly. Can consume skills from themselves to increase in power.*

Ash tries to level up the black hole skill again but quickly sees that it requires 10 skill points.

Ash then decides to test black hole and consume his farming skill.

A gust of wind surrounds him as if wind and air where being sucked into his body.

"Consuming skill Farming Level 8 has been successful. You have acquired 1 skill point and 5 strength."

Ash smiled, deciding to be an adventurer.

In the city of grundle where Ash lives there are countless dungeons that the church and the royal family have been unable to destroy for centuries. Ash decides he will attempt to explore these dungeons.
