Chapter 2 - Faith...

"You have little faith child, to receive the blessings of the goddess Asteria, You have to believe"

Bullshit!!! 

I always detested this notion of everyone having a PREDESTINED fate. 

I hate all superstitious belief alike. 

And I hate the religions the same.

But.

Ironically I have no choice but to turn to them. 

Having to meet this nuns on a daily basis makes me feel like I'm losing my mind.

Whenever I fail to awaken, those nuns always say the same annoying stuff about faith. 

Why does my life have to be this way.

Endless misfortunes.

Back then I never missed a single awakening session in the hunter association.

But I never awakened. 

I went on a daily basis without fail , but I always ended up with the same Result. 

I went so much that they got fed up with me. 

They now plastered a notice with my face on it. 

A BAND notice was written to keep me at bay. 

I'm like the only person in the whole world who was band from the hunter association.

I couldn't give up.

I couldn't afford to. 

With the hunter organization putting a band on me. 

My only hope of awakening became my worse nemesis, the temple.

I went to the daily but the results came out even worse.

I get that I have the worse luck in all existence.

But those that have to associate to such a dire situation.

And just in that moment when I feel at my lowest.

This bastard show with there words of consolation.

Sigh

Why do I have to live this way. 

I hate being a laborer.

I hate doing something so stupid for so little.

Sweat riddled face and an almost nonexistent fatless wallet was my take home everday. 

I hate this work but it's the only work that keeps me alive. 

Like from not staving or suffocating to death.

I still have to buy oxygen. 

I always had hope that when I got to age sixteen. 

My whole life would change for the better. 

I would become a hunter and head to Westeria for a new life. 

But that very day when I got to the hunter association for the awakening. 

My hope shattered.

I couldn't awaken. 

I couldn't become a hunter. 

I didn't believe it. 

There was no way. 

So I made the hunter organisation my second home.

I would go there everyday for the awakening test.

But now I can't anymore. 

There is no more time for the people of Asteria.

On a near date, the last of the shuttels to Nevana would be launched.

Today was the last chance of awakening i had.

But.

I failed once again.

I hate this feeling of helplessness.

I don't want to fucking die!

But...

I guess this is my fate in the end.

If only I wasn't a poor kid from the slumbs.

If only I had access to one of the VR pods. I heard the rich kids who couldn't awaken through normal means somehow managed to do it with the help of the pods.

Nevana Nexus.

A piece of technology stolen from Nevana that gave access to a game like world. A world were hunters were able to grow more and more powerful.

If I only I wasn't born so filthy poor!

I hate it.

I HATE THIS FUCKING WORLD!

THIS IS SO UNFAIR!

IT'S SO...

... Unfair.

"...Hahh... Haa... Haaa," I panted, avoided the slew of corpse at every corner.

Everyone dying.

Everything.

I have little to nothing left of my reserves.

This could as well be my last day of existence.
