3 3] Journey begins

[CONDITION STABLE. REGAINING CONSCIOUSNESS ]

*aghhh*

With a sudden pain in the head, Daren wakes up clutching his head. It takes him few minutes to get adjusted to the pain and get his mind clear. He analyse his body only to find it lying near a pond in a pool of his own blood. He tries to stand up, but a sudden pain again rush to his head, as if being stabbed by countless needles. Lots of information appears in his mind. Information about this world and the information about the galactic empire, his mission, all surfaces in his mind.

This is a world where power rule. A world of cultivation. Basically ruled by 3 kingdoms, namely Kingdom of Ravens, Holy Kingdom of Light, and kingdom of Astina, and 7 major sects. But there are also some non-human powers residing with this world.

The boy lying in the pool of blood was the 3rd Prince of the Kingdom of Astina, son to the third wife of the king. His mother never became the official queen due to being a common by birth. He was born talented, was kind and humble, but was hated by many nobles due to his talent and origin.

He was poisoned by the girl he loved, legs broken by his own men and was on the brink of death due to excessive blood loss. He never suspected anyone and treated them all as his own, only to realise his mistake after drinking the poisoned tea.

"Naive!!" Murmured Daren.

*ding*

'Status' thought Daren in his mind. A screen appeared infront of him.

[NAME : DAREN MARTINOS

CULTIVATION: NONE

SUMMONS : 0/1

BLACK CURRENCY : 10,000

Daren regained his cool. Took a deep breath and calmed down. And then started thinking.

'First thing I need to do is get rid of this stench, it's affecting my thinking process. Secondly, I need to rush back to the kingdom to get my legs cured. Thirdly, I need to get strong and thus need a good cultivation technique.

The previous owner of the body didn't use any cultivation as he was deemed unable to cultivate. But the system has healed them. Thus I can now become strong. Only when you have power to protect yourself, power to trample all, can you reign unrestrained. '

'System can you please open my summoning.'

*ding*

[SUMMONING ASSISTANT... ]

With a bright flash of light, a muscular man about 7ft. tall, paired with short black hair, tanned skin and brown eyes appeared in front of Daren. Dressed in a leather armor with 2 swords at his back, he looked quite imposing.

"I, Barbarian general, pledge loyalty to the lord and will serve you till eternity." said the hulking man while kneeling on one knee.

Daren nodded with a smile. And asked "What's your name?"

"I have no name lord." replied the man respectfully.

"You shall be called Arius from this day on. The first general of King Daren. "

"I, Arius will not disappoint you my lord"

"Good. Arius bring me to the pond and help me get washed up."

He nodded and proceeded accordingly.

Daren tore a patch of his cloth and tied it around his wounds. He then asked Arius to help him get to the pond. Once inside he washed his clothes and placed them to dry at the lake-side and washed himself. After cleaning himself he asked Arius to help him out. He then proceeded to dress himself up and then asked Arius to bring him back to the side of the pond. While he was being carried by Arius he looked at him curiously. Suddenly a screen appeared before him.

With a blinking sound the human realm assassin disappeared from the screen.

'System what happened. Why did it disappear.'

[ HOST IS NOT THE ONLY ONE USING THE SYSTEM. YOU ARE ONE OF THE 1000 CANDIDATES CHOSEN TO USE THE SYSTEM. ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE AT FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS.]

'Oh shit.. Maybe I need to speed things up. Huh! Why is there no details about this one?' Daren thought and clicked to the ancient cultivator.

' Yes buy it. We will think about paying it when the time comes. F*ck!! I am gonna be broke....Also system what are the ranks and realms that you mentioned. '

[PART 1/5 OF THE CULTIVATION TECHNIQUE ACQUIRED]

A steam of light flowed into Daren's head. Knowledge about the first half of the cultivation technique flowed into his mind. Arius felt fluctuations coming from Daren's body. Seeing Daren in this state Arius checked the surrounding for any danger and cleared any if found.
