Chapter 3: evolving

"So you are telling me, that your power was taught by a great hidden master who lives in Europe..." Kushina was sitting on the bed, thinking about what she heard, Light has been trying to explain about her powers for a while and, as much as it is not true, the lie was really convincing. "Okay... but let me give you a little warning." Slowly, she approached Red, who was amazed and chose a little. "You don't know the power of your eyes, don't show them again.

And so, Professor Sexy left the room. Light fell on his bed, sighing with relief, there were many emotions for just one day.

Some hours later...

I love my bed, when I lie down it seems that all my problems, all the frustrations and hurts are gone, I feel at peace. But now is not the time for that, it seems that when I reincarnated, or appeared here, I simply became this guy, this Light, I'm a human, I'm saying that I'm going to make humans the strongest race but I'm not even strong enough to protect me, how ironic does that sound?

"System?"

[Yes ?]

"You have things to explain, so get started."

[There are 3 people with the same ability as yours, An angel, a demon and you, a human. The other two ⟨Players⟩ have the same goals as you, to make your race the strongest.]

I sit on my bed and lean against the wall. "I understand, but don't you think that is kind of unfair? I mean, my race has only four or five people who are really strong, if your goal, who control the system, is to make your bearer's wishes come true, because I am at a disadvantage compared to other players? " I said, more for myself than for the system.

[Yes. You are sure that you are at a disadvantage in relation to power, but you are wrong at the same time, you have the latest System update, your resources are unlimited and your system has options that the other 2 do not.]

I open the window, stopping to think I never noticed the view, Kuoh is just beautiful, no ah what to do.

[Like what?] I said, watching the sky. "Because look, I don't feel privileged, I'm sorry if I'm rude to you, I also know that I'm not entitled to judge myself because you saved my life and I didn't even start training myself".

[First of all, let me explain a few things. Sacred Gears are weapons created by the original god, you know that. Well, when the carriers of the system activate the "ego" or "consciousness" of the «System» they gain the possibility to choose a Sacred Gear to complement their power. Each race has its own ways of thinking, you yourself know that demons hate Humans and, bearer number 1, of the race of demons does not have this option to choose a Sacred Gear because its «System» is outdated.]

"Wait, you say I can choose a Sacred Gear but they all already have an owner, at least the best ones."

[Not all. As I was saying, the first "System" Carrier wanted to prove his great power to the world and killed a Sacred Gear carrier, the only one available at the moment, one of the longinus type.]

"So you're telling me," he said, arching his eyebrow a little excited. "that I have the option of having a longinus?"

[Warning!]

[The ⟨Player⟩ Activated the "ego" of the system!]

[A gift has been received!]

[Before «Player» sees, I recommend not activating your longinus at this time. You have already acquired it, because you are the only one able to use it, but if you awaken it now, you will really have problems, especially being weak in that way.]

He got out of bed, fixed his hair and went out to observe the beautiful city that is currently living, while thinking about what to do.

Kuoh is really a beautiful, chaotic, but beautiful city. He went towards the market. The redhead has been walking for so long that he was hungry.

"AARGH !!! "A shout echoed.

Light was not the type of person to do justice without gaining anything in return, but this time he really wanted to ignore it and keep walking, as if he hadn't heard the screams.

[Quest alert!]

[Saving the day!]

[Objective: Save the Boy from being mugged from the thieves again.]

[Reward: 2,500 XP and a «Letter of Convocation»]

Light stared at the screen floating in front of him, alternating between the screen and the alley from which he heard the scream. He didn't want to help, but he will feel that he is weak and completing that mission can really help him level up.

He turned and walked to the alley. There were three guys simultaneously kicking a boy who seemed to be the same age as Light who was huddled on the floor, the redhead recognized the boy, they were from the same room, his name is Satoshi Isami and he is a nerd, a complete nerd.

"Hey kutsagi, take the money from that kid", the tallest, with blond hair stopped and said, making one of them bend down and turn over Satoshi's wallet.

"Tsk, that's why I didn't want to get involved", Light sighed, put his hand on his face to fix his hair and took a few steps towards the trio, who quickly turned to him.

"Well, well, another sucker hehe" The last guy, thin and small said, he smiled widely before turning around.

Light calmly took his hand off his face, the trio could see his eyes go red and get black points.

[MP: 500/600]

The first thug ran, he punched in the direction of the belly of light that, with his Sharingan activated could see everything in slow motion. He dodged and grabbed the bandit's arm, pulling him towards him and, in an impulse hitting a knee in the belly, making him pass out right there.

The redhead thought he was weak even among humans, but his 30 strength points are really something, in fact he could be a monster fighting humans.

[MP: 400/600]

"What the hell..." Kutsagi saw his subordinate fall in a single blow and quickly became tense, he knew that this guy in front of him was strong. He turned to the weaker and said "you, go!

The second, undecided bandit ran to the light, which activated his Aura and circled it in his fist.

[Aura activated!]

[Strength: 50] (↑ 20)

outlining his fist with an aura, Light's strength rises by twenty points, he was in an attack position propelling himself forward, and in a flash he appeared in front of the bandit.

He raised his hand and punched.

A powerful punch, even the bandit could feel, the strange power that that punch was missing.

It was death.

He knew, if that punch hit, he wouldn't survive to count.

With no way out, he closed his eyes and prepared himself.

* SOCK *

The punch was delivered to his chest, the aura that was wandering entered his body and, in the blink of an eye, his organs were all destroyed. He could only regret, for having met such a monster.

Blood dripped from his chest and slowly his body fell to the floor, dead.

[MP: 300/600]

"I-impossible," Kutsagi looked at his subordinate's body on the floor and shivered looking at the boy coming towards him slowly, he knelt on the floor looking down.

Kutsagi knew he had no chance, his enemy killed someone so he would have no mercy, he had given up, his fighting spirit no longer existed, and he no longer had the strength to fight.

Light came over and helped his colleague to his feet.

"Are you alright ?" he asked, seeing his friend nod his head he released him. Light sighed, disabling his Sharingan.

"thank you." Satoshi said and, he gathered his money to leave.

He turned his back on light and the bandit who was still on the ground and slowly walked.

"When did I let you go?" Satoshi stopped, turned and looked confusedly at the owner of the voice who was smiling brightly. He took his wallet out of his pocket, took out 100 dollars, walked over and held out his hand to Light.

"This is all I have"

Ligut looked at the money and looked at Satoshi frowning.

"I never asked for your money." he walked over to the bandit and stepped heavily on his face.

"Aaargh !!!!! P-please... Spare me !!" asked the bandit, but all he could do was keep his face on the ground.

Ligut looked at the bandit and looked at Satoshi. "Don't you want to get even? Show these bandits that you can't be bullied easily? Fight back!"

Satoshi clenched his fists tightly, angrily, wondering why this fellow was helping him. Of course, he already thought about fighting back, revenge, but he doesn't have the power to do that, he's just smart, in a matter of fighting even more at a disadvantage it doesn't help at all. But now, now he has a chance.

Satoshi approached and raised the bandit with one hand, holding on to his neck he dealt a blow.

One... three... fifteen.

He got it right and it got it right, and then he threw it on the floor, smiling contentedly.

"I liked you," Light said, smiling at his new friend, "I made up my mind, I'm going to become your friend."

He turned and continued walking slowly towards the market again, leaving a battered thug on the floor, and a proud bully nerd.

Sitting on the bench in the square, Light finally stops to see his rewards.

"Despite having completed this mission, I am still really weak." The redhead sighed, leaning against the bench. "Frankly. Just using my Sharingan for a few seconds almost all of my mana is gone."

Light sighed, got up and calmly started walking back toward his home.

"I need to get stronger, at least to the point that I can kill a fallen angel," he sighed, walking down the street. "Before Issei becomes a demon, I have to get stronger."

Walking, Light managed to see a strange store, his name was in unrecognizable letters and, the mural was all black, when he got close, something scared him.

[Ping! [

[The «Infernal Dungeon lv2» has been discovered!]

[Do you want to enter? Y / N]

The redhead smiled, he who was trying to find a way to level up, well, it seems that the sky doesn't hate him after all.

Quickly, light pressed "yes" automatically, a portal appeared in front of him, a mysterious suction force pulled him in and in his vision everything blackened.

He seemed to be in a dark corridor, as the light source had only a few torches hanging on the walls which, it seemed, were made of an extremely black ore.

[To escape the Dungeon the Player must kill the Boss!]

"As if I didn't know that before" he sighed and shook his hand making all the screens disappear. Light opened his status and immediately looked at his MP

[MP: 500/650]

"my MP is still not at maximum" His breathing became tense. "I don't know which monsters I will encounter here, so the best thing to do at the moment is to use only my aura and leave my Sharingan for later."

Soon, a thin yet aggressive layer of red light enveloped the entire Redhead's body.

[Aura activated!]

[Strength: 60] (↑ 20)

"Well... whatever God wants."

He started to walk forward, being the only possible path light tried his best to be careful because, with his experience in video games he can remember that they always had pitfalls, mainly where you step.

And so, he continued to walk for twenty minutes until, finally light managed to leave the hall and enter a room.

Taking his first step, he felt relieved, now he could be a little less careful.

* SHOCH *

A noise of wind could be heard and, shortly afterwards, a doglike creature jumped in light causing it to fall.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!" light screamed desperately for the prop, and then with his eyes closed in fear he struck several times at the beast above him, and a few minutes later a sound could be heard.

[You killed a "Hellfire Dog lv2"!]

[500 EXP has been acquired !!]

The dog's body was still on top of Light, who was breathing heavily, panting.

"Damn dog... What a fucking scare !!" Light stood up, checked his body to see if he had any injuries, and then looked at his life bar.

[HP: 380/400]

"Holy shit, I lost 20 life points !!" Furious, Light looked at the dog, he seemed to be a normal dog, but his fur was completely black and his eyes shone a red shade, his species was similar to a bulldog.

"RAAAAW"

slowly, light turned and, on an impulse ran to the direction that heard the growl, had another dog, with his speed he kicked the dog that seemed to have no effects.

The furious dog, leapt into light again trying to bite some part of its body with its sharp teeth.

"Not that trick again!" Embedding aura in his arm, Light raised his hand and with an impulse hit an elbow in the dog's body which, when falling, felt a kick in his body again, this time, with aura.

[You killed a "lower hell dog lv2"!]

[500 EXP has been Acquired!]

Using the torch next to the wall Light focused on the hall. He could see 2 more Guard Dogs while there, on top of a kind of pedestal made of stone, contained a sleeping dog, but the sleeping dog...

It had 2 heads.

Using his power to evaluate Light he only got his name and title.

[Upper Hell Hound - Lv 5]

[Title: Dog of the elements]

Looking at the letters floating above Light, a cold went through his body, because, unlike the dogs that were on guard and had their names and titles in green.

The upper dog contained a name at the yellow level.

The redhead, who was suppressing his entire aura in a thin layer so as not to attract attention, finally broke free, releasing an explosion of red color that, he seemed excited to find strong opponents.

The sleeping two-headed dog woke up.

"RAW ~" he waved and told his subordinates to attack.

The two dogs occurred at full speed towards the enemy. Light, who had all his foresight in the battle, positioned himself ready to deliver the blow, his aura that, only capable of wrapping his fist, now seemed to condense on him.

"Take this !! Useless dogs" And so, he punched. The condensed aura went in the direction of the punch and, before the dogs could get ready, they felt a small ball coming towards them.

The aura ball entered the body of the first dog and soon after the other, thus disappearing. The dogs stopped and, as if it were a bomb, the power that the small condensed ball left on their bodies exploded, their organs and everything inside each of the dogs, were crushed.

And so, they fell dead...

[Aura: 250/550]

[You killed a "lower hell dog lv2"!]

[500 EXP has been Acquired!]

[Level Up!]

[15 Skill Points have been Acquired!]

[You killed a "lower hell dog lv2"!]

[500 EXP has been acquired!]

[All of his «Aura» has been recovered!]

Holding on to his joy at having suddenly leveled up, Light quickly put all his points into Intelligence, leaving him with 150 points of intelligence and 800 points of MP.

The superior dog, stood up calmly, he saw the way the human killed his subordinates, certainly it was not a normal blow, he had to be careful because, he knew that if he were not extremely careful he would die.

With his 800 MP points, light silently activated his Sharingan, his vision took on a red tint, his senses were heightened and his Sakki was automatically released on the second level.

Prepared, with his aura condemned to the maximum, 550 points in a single stroke, staring at the Dog...

Both moved forward.

The dog jumped up and started running towards Light, which in response also ran towards him.

Both ready to kill, both ready to die.

Light raised his hand in fury, and the pressure of his entire aura hit the dog's first head, crushing it.

The dog, disturbed, was still strong, he opened the mouth of his second head and, in a breath, a great amount of flames came out of his mouth like a dragon's puffs and hit light by burning a part of his clothes.

The redhead, already without aura, could only contain himself with physical attacks, one after another he did not give up, the dog, also in the same position, could only use his scratching attack.

Both at an impasse... An exchange of resistance.

In an outburst of patience, light with both hands grabbed the dog's head and then started kneeling with his legs.

1... 2... 4... 9...

He just stopped, until he received a notification, his efforts were rewarded, his battle was won.

[You Killed a "Superior Hell Dog lv5"!]

[2,000 XP has been acquired!]

[Level Up!]

[15 skill points have been acquired!]

Falling to the ground, panting, light smiled, with his level evolution, his resources including MP / HP and his Aura were all restored, turning off his Sharingan he stopped to rest.

Quickly, he puts 10 points in dexterity and 5 points in strength. Light felt amazing after creating a condensed aura attack, but he saw that only a Superior hellhound was able to survive his greatest asset, so he had to increase his strength.

Standing up, he looked at the dog's carcass and soon saw something shining in his mouth, approaching he caught it. It was a kind of shiny ring.

[Lord of Magic Ring!]

+ 20 Intelligence Points

+ 15 Strength Points

[Durability: 28/300]

[Description: A ring that was worn by the first adventurer who passed through the dungeon, the lord of kassic magic!]

"PUCK SHIT INTENS !!!!" light screamed with happiness, even though he leveled up consequently, he still felt very weak, now that he knows about the existence of items, everything is much easier.

Placing the item on his finger, he can feel a sudden change in his power.

[MP: 1,000 / 1,000]

[Strength: 70]

Now Light had a certain amount of security in relation to his own power, his only regret was that he discovered this ring with little durability.

Advancing in the Dungeon, Light can see that he no longer had any Lower Hell Dogs, now he was just higher Hell Dogs from level 3 to level 5, even though he was not able to level up twice.

Putting his twenty-five points, light was dexterity and Vitality, to not only have a safe HP base but also to have a little extra stamina.

Advancing in the Dungeon, for the first time light was stopped by a door, it had a figure of a huge dog with three big heads and a name underneath.

Cerberus, The Hound of Hell.

There, light knew, that was the Boss. Activating all his features, he entered the room.

It was a large room, there was a stairway in front of it with a place where the stairway was, and there was the Boss, guarding a kind of door.

The cerberus, slowly opened its eyes and looked at the little human in front of it.

Light activated his ability, and as expected.

[Cerberus - Lv 10]

[Title: Hell's Dog]

Its dazzling letters eradicated a red glow, it wasn't green, it wasn't yellow, now the danger was real.

"What do you look like, Human?" One of the heads, the middle head, said, staring at Light with his blue eyes.

"W-how do you ..."

"I can speak ?" The last head ended, with its green eyes. "Humans seem to have forgotten our existence... I feel sad.

"Shut up, poison!" The first head finally came out.

It was in the face, three heads, three different personalities, it was strange.

"Hunting time haha" The first animated head said, while the whole body of the cerberus rose.

Men and beasts, in a struggle for their lives.

With his Sharingan activated, his senses were heightened, light prepared to use 500 points of his aura and condense it.

The first head opened its mouth, followed by the second, the third just ignored it.

On impulse, they both attacked.

Jumping off its pedestal the cerberus jumped towards Light with its first head puffing fire towards it.

Light gives a back and forth mortal, but did not expect that the moment he fell, a puff of ice hit him, freezing his feet.

[HP: 600/750]

Boosting his hand, Light finally released the condensed aura punch in the direction of Cerberus, who adjusted his body and, with a strange dog, the third head swallowed his aura.

Light swallowed hard, and punched the ice several times to break it.

"Hahahahah, such a weak human!" the cerberus jumped again towards Light who, at the last minute, manages to break the ice, but was still hit by the claws of his enemy.

[HP: 400/750]

"Shit !!!" He hissed light, he no longer had the trump card or what to do against that beast.

His aura, he had restored in 800 points, but he knew that he could not do anything, possibly he was just feeding his enemy.

"Give up Human, turn our food!"

"Never your shit !!!" In this situation, Light knew his destiny, it was death, possibly he would not even be able to survive another attack.

It was then, in that moment of despair that he remembered the attack the system gave Kushina in the middle of the class.

Concentrating, Light closed her eyes and began to feel her aura, her arrogance saying that, no matter the circumstances, she would always survive to tell a story, no matter the enemy, she would always win.

"So die!!" All three heads opened their mouths and began to form a ball of power in front of them.

The aura of light, began to change, like an infection a blackness took its aura removing all its color Red and leaving only black, the emptiness.

Light, opened his eyes, feeling the power running through his left fist, he looked coldly at Cerberus.

"Shit dog..." He positioned himself. "Then try to hold this one !!"

Altogether, as if by magic, the words echoed in the head of light.

"Dragon's Fist of Emptiness !!!!"

He punched. Soon a majestic and giant dragon formed behind the light, with its cold, judgmental eyes looking at the Cerberus with disdain.

The dragon ran towards him.

Dragon against Cerberus.

And in a failed attempt to survive, Cerberus turned. The dragon then opened its mouth and then closed it greedily.

His teeth made of the sharpest aura there is, took shape and, cut Cerberus in three pieces... Three different heads.

Silence predominated the place, while the dragon disappeared with a proud expression on his face, as if, this type of battle was nothing for him.

[The "Player" has acquired proficiency in his "Aura" technique!]

[The Master technique «Fist of the Void Dragon» was learned without the help of the system!]

[50 Skill points have been acquired!]

[You killed the boss «Cébero lv10»!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level up!]

[The Dungeon item "Ring of the lord of Magic" has been permanently acquired and fixed!]

[Congratulations on completing the Level 2 Dungeon Infernal Dungeon]

[Choose one of the options below!]

- 5 Status Points

- A random item box

- A Random ability

Various types of screens could be seen in Light's vision, but all he could think of at the time was his newly acquired and powerful technique.

"Hahahahahaha Aura is simply the most amazing thing there is !!!!" Lelê smiled and danced to himself, celebrating his new technique. "Now, time for rewards."

He looked at the three options to choose from.

"Points, I already have many, I don't need an item right now." He looked at the last option, thinking carefully about what to do next. "A technique would work well, after all I am very lacking in techniques, I saw this in this dungeon, I almost died twice."

And so, Light chose the third option

[The average Aura skill «Palms of the furious tiger» has been acquired!]

"Hehehe, more aura skills." he smiled, then looking at his hands, "System, report the levels of aura techniques."

[«Aura» techniques are divided into 5 ranks. Basic, medium, advanced, superior and master. The "Player" created a basic technique like condensing Aura into fists, this is the level of basic techniques. The surprise of the night is that the "Player" is able to copy my Master technique just by remembering, it seems that you are a genius in the aura.]

"Hehe, I'm awesome..." he looked at the door that Cerberus was protecting, it was open now, with a portal behind it, the same portal that sucked him into the Dungeon. "Now get me out of here, I can't take it anymore !!"

[...]

Light returned to his home, having to explain his situation to his parents, it took him a while to finally lie down on his bed and enjoy the beauty and comfort that it is to have a mattress.
