Chapter 1: The Beginning
Eren stood at the edge of the village, the wind tugging at his cloak. His heart raced with anticipation, knowing today would be the day he finally chose his path. Everyone in this world had a System, a guide to their future. For some, it was clear from the start. For others, like Eren, it took years to understand what their true calling was.
Eren had always felt a connection to the magic that pulsed through the air. Today, he would embrace it fully. He had spent countless nights researching the classes that the System had to offer, and after much thought, he had decided on one: the Fire Mage.
Taking a deep breath, he activated his System, his hand glowing faintly as a prompt appeared before his eyes.

A warm sensation spread through his body as power flowed into him. He could feel the magic swirling inside, igniting the spark he had always known was there. As his System settled into place, his abilities shifted, unlocking his potential.

Eren read through his status again, excitement building in his chest. With his abilities unlocked, he was ready to test them in the field. His mind raced with possibilities. He could already imagine himself standing tall in the midst of battle, controlling the very flames themselves. But before that, he needed experience.
He made his way to the outskirts of the village, where a forest stretched out before him. The sounds of nature echoed all around, and the occasional rustle in the trees hinted at the presence of wild creatures. Eren was determined to gain his first experience today.
He wasn't sure how long it would take, but he wasn't going to waste any time. As he walked deeper into the forest, he spotted his first target: a Wild Boar rooting around near a tree. It was a level 1 creature, no stronger than him. Perfect.
SYSTEM NOTIFICATION:
Monster Detected: Wild Boar (Level 1)
Eren steeled himself. This would be his first real test.
He raised his hand, gathering his focus. A small flame ignited in his palm, growing until it formed a sphere. With a swift motion, he thrust his hand forward, unleashing Flame Burst. The fire shot through the air, hitting the boar directly in the side.
The boar let out a squeal, charging toward him in a blind rage. Eren quickly brought his other hand up, summoning his Inferno Shield. A blazing barrier of fire surrounded him, and the boar's tusks struck the shield, harmlessly deflected by the fiery wall.
The boar was weakened, its charge faltering. Eren gritted his teeth and cast another Flame Burst, the fire striking the boar's side once more. The creature collapsed to the ground, defeated.
SYSTEM NOTIFICATION:
