Chapter 4

Early in the morning, Aaron woke up and prepared himself. He is going to enter the dungeon today. If he needed to improve himself, he needed to push himself to the boundary. This can only be achieved if he kept challenging the dungeon again and again.

Though he wanted to do that, he isn't a moron to fight continuously. His body needs rest as much as practice, so for one to properly become stronger. If not his body could die of exhaustion.

So he decided to challenge the dungeon early in the morning but return home by night. He made a schedule of it, what dungeons to challenge, and when to.

Everyone believes that one with high talent and hard work would reach the top but this is not true. Many talents fall early, either because of jealousy or their own stupidity.

In the novels, the main character survives all kinds of attacks from his enemies but at what cost? Most of the time his friends and family sacrifice themselves to protect him. They say it because of plot armor or Son of Heaven or something ridiculous.

A top-grade hunter dies at the hands of MC, because of these ridiculous things. Years of hard work go down the drain just because of MC's plot armor.

If that is the case there is no point in working. The stories even work in favor of MC, and turn in whatever direction he wants.

This is especially true in stories where a boy sincerely loves a girl and wanted to marry her but the girl hates men for some stupid reason. She even starts to hate this boy, even after whatever help he does to her and her family.

At this moment the MC enters the story and Abracrdabra...she falls in love with MC even if he has a harem and pursues married women destroying families.

She would even destroy the boy who helped her and her family in the past for no reason. This would involve the boy's family who even though are powerful people would die at the hands of MC.

If the world chooses some obnoxious idiot to represent it, then it is better to let the world perish than to save it.

Aaron sighed thinking about this, 'I hope this world is not like that stories where hard work is wasted and something like plot armor is pushed forward.'

'Damn, I'm overthinking again. Having memories of past life is both boon and a curse. I can never have a life without worries.'

Aaron shook his head, 'I shouldn't think about that. Aarrghh! concentrate on the present.'

After having breakfast and filling a bag of necessities for lunch, Aaron left his home towards the dungeon called Goblin's Dungeon.

---

Goblin's dungeon is one of the most common monster-type dungeons present in the world. The number of these dungeons would easily be in the middle three digits across the world.

This is because goblins are at the lowest level when considering the monsters. People also refer to these as newbie dungeons. Every newbie hunter would go hunting for the first time in newbie dungeons.

Though goblin dungeons are considered newbie dungeons, the fatality is also high in these dungeons. Most of the reason is due to the ego of the newly awakened hunter.

As soon as they awaken a profession, they feel like they are invincible in the world. Only when they go through the dungeons would they learn how wrong they were. The ones who survived would never underestimate the dungeons.

To enter a dungeon one needed an identity card which would be provided by the Hunters Guild. Each time you enter a dungeon you need to pay a certain fee for entry, depending on the rank of the dungeon.

There are only two exemptions where the fee would be waivered.

One is when the dungeon seems to be at the point of breaking. This usually happens only in higher-level dungeons now. So this exemption would no longer apply to the low-level dungeons.

The second is after awakening. A newbie hunter can get a free entry card for an entire month until the test for academies start. The newly awakened hunter had to apply for a card and show that they recently awakened.

This exception is for newbies, so this rule applies only to newbies' dungeons. Even in the grace period, if the newbie wanted to enter the higher dungeon, they need to pay the fee.

Aaron went first to the Hunters guild to register but it is fully occupied. On the day after the awakening, everyone would be present here. No one wants to waste a day before the test. They needed to get the card and enter the dungeon as early as possible.

Only by this they can reach a higher level and can surpass others, paving the way for their entry into prominent academies.

Aaron sighed looking at the queue. It would take one or two hours before he gets his chance or so he hoped.
