Vision

Oliver finds himself in a blur space between the line of life and death, unreality and existence. He couldn't tell what this space is, neither did he even get the chance to think about it

Not that his curiosity didn't kick in but the scene in from of him outside this space didn't give him that luxury

He could see majestic mountain peak shrouded in ethereal clouds, with the sun casting a gentle golden hue upon the scene. 

Two figures stand facing each other, one draped in a robe that dances elegantly in the wind, exuding an aura of sheer grace and power. The other figure, in stark contrast, seems ordinary at first glance, yet his eyes hold a fierce determination.

"I don't believe we've been introduced. Omnifarious," the figure whose robe dances elegantly with the wind, exuding aura of sheer grace and power spoke.

His voice wasn't loud nor was it forceful but it carries weight of authority that seems to command the elements around him.

Air of aloof, pride and supremacy encompass his being as he stare down on omnifarious as one looking at an ant

The other figure meets his gaze with a confident stare, ignoring the air crackling with latent energy between them. 

"You're Nefarious?" Omnifarious responds casually, his tone oozing with immense confidence and control over the world around him. 

"Omnifarious is my name, meaning many forms. Pray you never meet me in my thousand other forms," he warns, a deadly but playful grin forming at the edge of his lips, his eyes flashing with a primal intensity.

Oliver caught up with this scene ended what was going on an most importantly who are these people, his curiosity has taken the driver seat

Wanting to listen more into the conversation since it seem safe for him as he happens to be In some sort of private space

Just when he felt he could get more information, the casual looking figure with nothing much to write home about turns his direction as if he could see him from that distance and through space

The second Olivers gaze met with his, he regretted every single moment of it. If what he felt before his consciousness was pulled here was akin to thousand lightning bolt ramming against his soul

What he felt now is a complete soul shattering blast that sent his soul into fragment pieces for a split second. The next moment he regained himself is back at the mining cave

Blood flowing from all his orifice as he felt like a boulder had crushed on him, an inner pain he couldn't withstand resonate through his being

Despite the battered state he is in at the moment, there is this cocky smile of epiphany on his face that soon turned into a crazy fit of laughter

"Turns out I'm not a trash after all, you finally came through" tear of joy, relief and mixed emotions run down his cheek

He had envisioned himself going through this world as a nobody, he wiped the blood at the side of his lip away a he sat down to digest the gift heritage

A basic information of what ones gift is, it help them grasp what power each gifted have and the path to follow for improvement.

This world power level is set with gifted at the top of the chain, those blessed with unique gifts of all kinds, fire manipulation, mind reading, speedster etc. And the can utilize this world energy easily for other uses like techniques, magical items, spell etc

The adept comes next, they are not gifted but have affinity to sense this world energy, thereby giving them the opportunity to cultivate it

Using their sheer will to steal the world energy and turn it into their own in for of inner energy known as qi. They utilized this energy for techniques too and enhancing their physique

They can't use spells or magical items directly using world energy, that all about them or that is what the previous Oliver knew about them

As for the last category, that the one the previous Oliver fell in. No gift, no affinity to sense this world energy too. Leaving them as mundane, if gifted are first rate noble, adept second rate noble, then mundane are peasants

Force to do all minor work to survive and is seen and treated as trash from all angle except themselves, even that had its oddies.

Shifting his mind to his gift, his lips twitches uncontrollably. He didn't know if he should cry or laugh, the information he got stated he had awakened a gift called Explorer.

And just like the name implies, he can explore life from different POV. A wish he had once jokingly made had come true before his very eyes

He couldn't hold in the emotions anymore as he allows his tears to watch away all the suffering of his past life that had granted him this unique gift

Secretly vowing to himself to live this new life but for himself and his predecessor, the emotional moment last for a while before he could recollect himself.

His eyes landed on the pick axe in front of him, only now he recall he till got a quota to turn in. He didn't feel the urge to rush anymore, even if he didn't turn it in

Nothing could be done to him, he had indirectly become a noble from this point on. Still he want to give this new gift a test drive and thus he sinked into his thought

He need his first POV to be exciting, he scan through all the information In his head and soon came up with his choice.

Activating his gift his figure rapid change, taking a different appearance, aura etc. Revealing a new figure with features spiky blond hair, blue eyes, and an iconic orange jumpsuit with a forehead protector.

Olivier marvel as he did a body scan, it really happened, he had become the noisy ninja of the leaf village, even his voice sounds like his.

As if he couldn't wait to test out the new information that came along this transformation, he did a hand sign as he muttered. "Shadow clone jutsu"

Ten of his copies appeared before him and he could now see the details of his features more clearly.

A bitter smile creep on his lips amazed by his own cheat, putting that aside he order the ten copies to mine the ore for what remains of the time while he step aside to grasp his new ability and all it could do.

Half an hour glass time later, the gong rang again signifying a close of work for the day. Oliver came back to see a stuck pie of ore and couldn't believe his eyes

Only now he knew what he did wrong, mining hour as a commoner is quiet tasking but for a clone with naruto strength and agility

Its a work in the park and he had incidentally place ten of them to mine the ore, he scratch the back of his head helplessly.

He unsummon his clones as they disappeared in a puff while his appearance return to his original look but still got naruto form and power active.

Something he discovered during his brief exploration, he can transform to anyone but still retain his original form if he wish thanks to the added shape shifting ability as the cream of the pie.

He had gotten the a good grip on his gift as at now and would continue to discover more as time goes on and he rank up. He is only a tier one gifted as at now

There are still room for improvement, the only down side he had right now his he couldn't transform into any other form other than humanoid

He tried transforming into a beast a few moment back but nothing happened, his guess is that its a sort of way to keep balance

After all imagine someone that can transform into terrifying beast or something. Pushing those thought aside for now he picked the storage bag distributed to all worker, store the ore away and head out

He soon arrived at the desk everyone turn in their haul for the day, it happens to be he was the last to arrived and was getting a stern gaze from the Foreman overseeing their daily operations

This is one of the respectable position held be commoners aside the two other higher one, so those place their a literally proud

"You are late again as usual Oliver, you seem to have turn it into an habit. Maybe cutting a few of your pay for every time you keep me waiting would suffix my time wasted"

Oliver just beamed him an helpless smile which got the other to give up in sigh, he took the storage bag and passed it to his Secretary to ensure the quota is complete.

"Tell me boy, how long do you plan turning in old man quota? Its not like I'm against it or anything but your mother is a good friend of mine

I can't afford to see her get hurt because I wasn't able to caution her dear son" the man said seriously

He was about to continue since Oliver didn't respond when his secretary scream attract his attention and those around chatting for the time being waiting for the mine to close so everyone can return to town

The bush path to the mine is extremely dangerous as a group of bandit had taken the woods as their new hide out, they have to return in group to ensure security.

"What the heck you screaming for, don't tell me he didn't cut his quota this time around. I'll be kicking out if its that" the foreman wearing a good attitude just now had taken a complete 180

Oliver wasn't bothered one bit and seeing this the foreman annoying walked over to the secretary, grabbed the storage bag and tool a peek.

His expression is not different from that of his secretary, the storage bag even fell from his hands in shock.

"Seems like I completed my quota and that of old man fine yeah, I'll be heading off. Do make sure to clear my bill when you are at it" Olivier turn to leave as if the commotion in front of him have nothing to do with him

"Hold on" a fierce voice sounded from the side as a young man about his age adorned in adept robe and a sword guild to his side walked to the forefront.
