I'm supposed to just be a slightly normal highschool student... Who would have known that it will all end up like this?

"I'm here."

In the face of a hopeless future, how would you live your life...? It is a question that we faced back then. A question that most of them solved by not answering it. 

Living and living only for what will give them pleasure. Not caring for anything that will or may happen. Not caring if anyone will be hurt by their actions...

For them, there are no rules... no remorse... no thought of what will happen next...

They are prepared to lose everything to be happy. This was how the common populace has lived their lives.

"Operative Excel. Reporting in."

And yet here am I, denying what I want to do and fighting to change the tomorrow that I don't want to live in.

To win against this unfair world, I had to be a monster that no one can trample on.

Numb yourself. Lose your fears. Earn your stripes...

My name is Ephraim Chronia. This is how I, someone who is meant to just be normal, was given the chance to decide the future of this ruined world.

"Fight."

This is my war against this world.

Red is an NCP villager of the popular game called “Code” inside the Holographic Reality. The game announces an event and invites every player to defend the village under the kingdom of Freiy. Red immediately realises that her family in danger and rushes to the forest to save them. Red and her sister, Clementine, then stumble upon a monster with immense arcane. Fortunately, an adventurer passes by and attempts to save them, only to see him flee from the scene.

(Book cover not mine. Credits to the artist.)

Red is an NPC (non-player character) villager of the popular game called “Code”. She is living her simple life to the fullest, not until an announcement crashes into the game. A horde of monsters materialises in the distance, wreaking havoc across the Kingdom of Freiy. Red scurries through the forest and plans to save her parents and her sister, only to see them die in her hands.
She refuses to believe everything and goes against the script meant for her. The girl comes to learn about the world and how to complete the game. She created a war between nations, hence the rise of the death game.
Red, becoming a variant among NPCs, travels across lands for a purpose. A quest to take all four obelisks in her hands and seek vengeance against Warner Asimov, the founder of Code.
Will Red take her revenge against Warner or die inside the game?

“Three unemployed engineering graduates are running behind a set of CODES to find an anonymous person without knowing that, it will end up in a Tragedy”

My name is Arthur Dumas, code name 'Calamity', I served as a child mercenary for the group known as 'Humanity's Sin'. I have been deployed on the borders between the Kingdom of Smedia and the Himera Empire. 

 My life thus far can be summarised as a series of wars in which I excelled, having 600 confirmed kills to my name with thousands rumoured to have been caused by me. 

However an unknown 'illness' has forced me to retire from the  group and try to build a life for myself. 

The 'illness' is not real, my constant killing has activated the dormant bloodline within me, the bloodline forces me to devour in order to feed it and in return it makes me stronger.  Every time I devour someone it makes me need to feed more, the beast demands tribute, I the mercenary  king demand your tribute!

Jade hadn't noticed how much he was sweating, the moment he heard the IP's message he knelt down on the floor panting as a he felt a mild headache. He didn't realize how much concentration it had taken to beat the ape. The fight had lasted 1 hour and 34 minutes. 
He looked at his en-code stats and noticed that his encode had decreased at a much greater rate than it ever did before
[En-code state:
Strength: 105, 273,928/1,000,000,000
Agility: 98,708,567/1,000,000,000
Stamina: 99,245,391/1,000,000,000
Durability: 165,263,988/1,000,000,000
Intelligence: 0/100,000,000,000
Senses: 0/1,000,000,000
Energy: 0/100,000,000,000
Unattributed: 459,962,595/205,000,000,000]
Jade thought as he started packing the corpses of the monsters 'As expected, if I don't try to break through my limits my en-code won't be consumed, Rank 7s are perfect for me then. But this really sucks, even after busting my ass I can't get enough encode for an instant improvement even if I wanted to go that route, I'm in desperate need of training. 
My weapons are good but since I can't use my body to its full potential I'm limited and I really need to find a better use of my energy, I don't like that I couldn't find a way to use at least 30% of it in one attack. I would've been able to one shot the ape.
The ape could use its aura very well if you compare it to how I use my energy; the only thing going for me is that I can teleport. I wonder how powerful it would be if it could use all colors of aura… No, if it could use 3 colors I wouldn't have been able easily to beat it'
The IP spoke while Jade was wallowing in self depreciation 'Congratulations on becoming a Rank 7 (Superior) Primordial Human. You can choose 1 out of the selection of the privileges shown'
[Rank 7 privileges
Hunter's Perception: shows the user the information of all the creatures within a 70 mile radius. It gives the user information about the creatures such as the Rank, traits, kill en-code, job and the stats of the creatures under the condition that the creatures are not more than 5 Ranks above the user or has a information hiding privilege activated and is the same or higher in Rank than the user. 
If the previous conditions aren't met the user will either get false or partial information. The distance it can scan increase by 10 miles for every Rank increase above Rank 7 and information detail also increases as the user increases Rank.
Hunter's Camouflage: gives the user the ability to falsify its information from the IP of creatures around it and a user of a inspection privilege that is not more than 3 Ranks above it. The Rank limit reduces by 1 Rank for every Rank increase above Rank 7]
Jade thought 'Only hunter skills, so humans can't create spawns… no, is it more like hunters can't create spawns? IP why do I only have hunter skills as options? Did I just pass the hunter exam?' 
The IP responded 'Your job has been changed to Hunter that is why you have only Hunter privileges as options, if you wish to change your job, change your survival habits and reach Rank 15. The Hunter job is given to creatures that don't have a fixed territory and have killed more than 22 races of creatures within a month of reaching the required Rank for a job. 
The Rank 7 monster you encountered had the Conqueror job and the Conqueror's Spawn privilege; it grants it the ability to create devolved versions of itself with its blood, external materials and its unattributed en-code. 
The spawns provide double the amount of en-code the monster would get from a kill. Conquerors and their spawn do not gain en-code by killing creatures that are more than 2 Ranks below them; it is a drawback of their job'
'That explains why ape waited for me to kill a Rank 6 monster before coming out, it was trying to get double profit. DAMN! Why the hell am I not a conqueror?!' Jade thought 'Anyway, I have to pick a privilege. 
My space mapping ring can give me the location of monsters and a vague idea of their energy constitution, Hunter's Perception is way better than it… now, in the future my space mapping earring may overtake it as I improve on it. 
For Hunter's Camouflage, I didn't know that monsters could see my Rank the same way I see theirs, no wonder some of them run away, but if I encountered a monster that was Rank 7 and the IP said it was Rank 6 or less, I would probably underestimate it reflexively and pay dearly for it. 
Also, I don't have a way to falsify my Rank information so if a monster or person has Hunter's Perception and I have the same and I am not 5 Ranks above that creature, which means there is a possibility the creature is stronger than me and at best it will be as strong as me, it will be able to see a bunch of information about me, even if the creature doesn't fight me, the information can be given to something or someone that can use it to kill me. 
And the best thing about Hunter's Camouflage is that it will increase the Rank of creatures I can hide from as I increase my Rank, so I will be able to hide my information from creatures that are 4 Ranks above me when I get to Rank 8 which is just lovely. We have a winner, IP I want Hunter's Camouflage'
'Acknowledged, you now have the Hunter's Camouflage privilege, you can now edit the information you want other creatures to receive while hunters privilege is active'
[Rank 7 (Superior) Primordial Human
Traits: (Superior) Primordial Human (homo primum superus) – the primordial human(homo primum) is the unadapted, original form of the human race, before they adapted to their planet, the species possesses physical qualities that are superior to humans but lesser mental qualities compared to them. The species has a much longer life span than humans. The species gives of an aura that scares creatures with low intelligence.
Due to the vast amount of En-code and your previous stats, the traits of the species have been altered to make a superior version of the race: the species now has a far higher mental quality than the human race. The species now has an energy producing and storing organ (unbiased) and an improved anabolism and metabolism.]
[Stats: 
Strength: Low (intermediate)
Agility: Low (intermediate)
Stamina: Low (intermediate)
Durability: Low (intermediate)
Intelligence: Low (high)
Senses: Low (high)
Energy: Intermediate (low)
Job: Hunter
Kill en-code: ~25,000,000 en-codes]
Jade's eyes bulged when he saw his kill en-code 'What?! My en-code bounty is so low! It's not even as high as a warlord's bounty, it's even lower than the en-code of the monster I just killed… wait, I could only kill the Rank 7 monster because of my spatial devices, so at the end of the day I'm weaker than the Rank 7.'
Jade checked the information of the Ancestral Aura Ape's stats and found that it had a High (low) strength and agility the maximum encode for its strength and agility was 800 million.
'Of course, my items don't count when measuring my en-code, whoever kills me can just take them anyway'. Jade changed his information, this was his new profile:
[Rank 1 Human
Traits: If you can see this section it means you have Hunter's Perception right? Fuck off before I kick your ass!
Stats 
Strength: funny,
Agility: you
Stamina: are
Durability: still
Intelligence: looking.
Senses: you about to get
Energy: really dead.
Job: Serial Killer (I'm not a terrorist, don't believe what the news said about me)
Kill en-code: Trust me I have an Emperor Class bounty :)]
Jade looked at his new profile and smiled 'Now monsters will think I'm a pushover, I don't want them running away from me when they notice I'm a Rank 7. 
Judging by the lack of undead and other monsters in the ape's territory maybe the ape just killed all of them… who knows'
When Jade finished packing the bodies, it was already night time and for the first time ever Jade felt sleepy. He slept in a partially destroyed building a few meters away from the ape's territory with his auto dodge system kept on.

Concise Synopsis:
This is a post-apocalyptic story about the origins of various powerful figures that appeared after the apocalypse event. During the apocalypse monsters appeared possessing powers and constitution beyond the limits of human understanding. They ravaged the world and brought down all governments.
The first part of the story follows Jade, a terrorist that was ravaging the world before the monsters arrived.

Dramatic Synopsis:
The New Gods, the most feared and revered beings on the planet. They are forces capable of absolute destruction and creation.

As Impactful as they are no one knew their origin, they are called the New Gods so there must be Old Gods. I and my colleagues dedicated our lives to finding their origins only to find out that the beings we fear and adore were once like us, average, mortal and weak... at least most of them were.

*It is a sort of 'reverse RPG' as no one knows anything either skills, abilities  or how the system works but they find out on their own or develop their own skills or abilities.
*The story has many protagonists and point of views but it paints a beautiful story of survival in a world of endless perils for both the humans and the monsters (some monsters are protagonists).
*There is a system but it is very limited (not overpowered) and it treats everyone equally, monster or human. The system is very different from regular systems; no exp, levels and system items (it has similar concepts but they are not the same).
*The story is a world building story where overall, the world is the true main character.

In the end, Code-C accepted his fate and allowed the Fenrir guy to pass on his bloodline. Shortly after, Code-C joined the other two cats to go to the human continent. 

Their tribe already chose a suitable family in a suitable country, and the one chosen was the Godlif country, Sloan Family. The Sloan Family was once a reputable family comparable to the 7 great mafia families. 

As for why the cat tribe chose the Godlif country, it's simply because the Godfather resided there! The Godfather was rumoured to be a cat lover…

Even though the Godlif country wasn't a big country with a powerful might, its title as the 'mafia country' was mighty enough to gather forces all around the world. Mainly the one involved in shady businesses. 

The cat tribe created a magic prairie connected to their island right inside the Sloan Family's estate with the first family head's permission. After that, the three cats teleported to their new home, embarking on a journey to be a legendary beast. 

Ainsley watched all of this unfolding in front of her eyes. Not only she saw Code-C's memories, but she even witnessed her family's history starting from the first generation. 

To think that her family was once an influential one on par with the other 7 great families…

That was also why Code-L, the strongest candidate among the cat tribes successfully triggered her bloodline with the help of the first family head. 

In short, the family was great because of the first family head. He tamed Code-L, helped her to grow...he even triggered Code-B's bloodline, helping him to become the truly sacred guardian. 

However, he didn't have time to help Code-C before he passed away in a chaotic war era. 

The war back then was to covet territories. It was still an exploration era for most mafia families, resulting in many conflicts becoming innumerable. 

Afterwards, Code-L and the others went back to the prairie, waiting for the next family head to help them grow their strength. 

However, not everyone was as great as the Sloan Family's founder. 

Only a few generations managed to help Code-L achieve a half-legendary beast state while Code-B had almost grasped the theory behind the human transformation to become a half-legendary beast.  

As for Code-C? Who would want such a weak cat? Some family heads had tried to trigger this fellow's bloodline, only to fail. 

They realized that this guy was a mutant seed! Once the triggering ceremony failed, he became berserk, almost becoming a monster. 

If not for the other two cats' help, Code-C might already turn into a true monster. 

Such things repeated a few times until a lot of family heads gave up on Code-C. They preferred taking advantage of the already strong Code-L or Code-B. 

Who would want to risk their life just to raise a monster? No one could be sure whether Code-C would become a successful mutant or not. Why should they take the risk? 

Due to the circumstances, Code-C resigned to fate. He closed his heart, not willing to meet new humans. He knew that...they would just abandon him in the end, giving up on him. 

Time gradually passed by, and Ainsley already experienced Code-C's life up to the latest days. At first, the baby only expressed sympathy, but after going through the cat's life, it was as if someone tugged at her heart string. 

"Code-C…." Ainsley choked on her saliva. The girl looked down at Code-C inside his own memories, and she couldn't help but lament. 

Code-C...it isn't your fault that you're a mutant, but you have to bear the burden alone….and if you can't trigger your bloodline for real this time, you might have to pass on the heritage…

And that means death. 

Even the legendary beast that already exhausted their lifespan became an ordinary beast after transferring their bloodline heritage. 

Not to mention Code-C, who wasn't even a sacred guardian yet. He would die! He's only a sacred guardian in name! 

Thus, if he wanted to live, he had to find someone that could trigger his bloodline. If only he didn't need to depend on humans….he would have advanced a long time ago. 

A pity that the requirement to advance needed human's  cooperation. 

As such, maybe...only Ainsley could be Code-C's last hope. No wonder he was willing to come out of the prairie and follow her. 

Maybe he noticed her luck ability and thought that luck was what he needed to become the real sacred guardian. With enough luck, he could awaken his bloodline! 

By then, he should be as strong as Code-L, beating Code-B by a large margin. 

Of course, he had to control his power and studied it first since Code-B already awakened his bloodline a long time ago, unlike a 'failure' like him. 

All sorts of thoughts flashed inside Code-C's fragment memories, and Ainsley could see it. 

The baby stretched her right hand and carefully caressed the surface of the memory crystal inside the memory streams. 

Code-C….now I know your past, I feel that our heart is one. Maybe...maybe after this, I can help you to trigger your bloodline! 

The feelings inside Ainsley's heart was no longer pity but a determination to help Code-C. She couldn't just stay still knowing that such a cute cat might die soon…

But I already comprehended his heart. Thus, I'm confident that our bond is firm now! I only need to go back to reality and execute the awakening ceremony. 

Of course, to do that…

Ainsley looked around the universe-like memory streams inside Code-C. A faint smile hung over her tiny face. It was a smile full of unparalleled confidence. 

First, I need to get out of this cat's mind.

Konrad is sipping his tea while she stares at hers.

"I was telling the truth."

He put down his tea and look at her direction. She met his eyes.

"I woke up in a room, alone with no memories. There were tubes attached to my body and they were connected to some machines. I was forced to take pills and given injections everyday. I escape after given an opportunity."

"How long where you confined?"

"I lost track of time."

"Did you see their face?"

"No, They were wearing white masks."

"How did you escape?"

"I got a hold of an escape rune. It sent me to the Forest."

She told the truth ommiting, the system existence.

Konrad raised his right arm on the side. Silver and blue sparks dance around it then the sparks uniformly formed circle. Unidentified small shapes scribblings begin to take shape around the circle sparks. 

He did a familiar movement. The way he extend his hands inside the circle almost identical way on how she use the inventory minus the circle sparks and pattern scribblings. 
 
'SYSTEM?! How did he activate it?' She forgot to control her expression.  She frowned hard at the sight of it.

'Did I miss his activation command?"  

Konrad pulled a long silver stick out of thin air and place it infront of her.

[???'s Paralyzing Hunting Spear]

"Where did you get this weapon." 

She thought she lost it during her fight against the Ogre's Chieftain.

'He had it all this time but how did he know it was mine?'

She knows she will not be able to lie her way out of this. She waved down her fingers as natural as she can and access her inventory. She can tell that Konrad can't see the system's screen, his eyes are focused and directly looking at her. 

'This is uncomfortable.' She complained after looking away

" I can do something like this" she stretch her hands and pull something out. Konrad's pupil dilated. The only time he give away a reaction.

[Ogre's Butcher Knife]

The used to be heavy to lift knife feels lightweight now. She stick the huge butcher knife in table. The table did have a slight crack but didn't break in half.

"I found that spear inside." She didn't technically lie.

There was silence between them before Konrad rolled his sleeves. His arms are thick and had obviously undergo years and years rigid trainings. Both of his arms are full of different black lines, and shapes tattoos just like the guy with face tattoo.

He point the box with weird shape line at his wrist again. The tattoo he called "Code" yesterday.

"The code is something humans are born with. It is unique and serve as an identification without this you are no recognized as human."

****

She let herself fall to the floor, catching her breath. Sweats drops from her forehead to noseline. Her sleepwear is also wet from all the exercise she just finished.

She sit up straight and decide to go for shower before sleeping. She undress herself while walking. She stare at her naked reflection from the glass window. 

'Not human? No matter how I see it. I look like human.'

The only thing that is unsual is her right side body is plagued by brown spots. The brown spots starts from below the collarbone that extends in her arms until wrist, down to her thighs.

A little skinny but definitely human. She recalled earlier's conversation.

"The code disappears for a moment when the body had sustained severe damage and completely disappears when a human die. Since when did you notice you don't have code?"

There was a heavy silence in the atmosphere before she answered.

"I never had it. . . "

****

The more she stare at Konrad the more she can't see that he is an old man. He look like in late 20's or early 30's. He can be mistaken as an older brother to his son.

"Stop staring and ask." Konrad said as he continue to sip on his tea. He always comeby at a certain time. Yesterday they had tea, now he brought new table and tea with afternoon snacks. As usual the servants left after serving some tea.

"What do you want from me?" she blurted out

"What makes you think I want something from you?" He countered

"Then why do you keep coming here?"

"To check if you're still human." 

She felt little twitching in her forehead.

'Is that sarcasm or will he really finish me off if he decided I am not human anymore?' Well according to him I don't fall under the category of human----- '

She unconciously reach for at her wrist and rubbed it with her thumb. 

'That code is necessary for my survival. . . . .I can't go back to that place again.'

"How do I get a code?" Her throat feels dry after voicing out her worries. After her short trip to town, deep down she already know, she have more chances in the Monster's Forests than in civilization.

"You need miracle." Even Konrad words indicated clear impossibility but atleast not to her ears. 

She had thought about it. . .the reason why he let her go yesterday, She could have runaway but she didn't, more likely she can't. Like how she accepted the coat and map, everything went according to his plans. 

Konrad reads her like an open book. No matter how much she goes around the scenario it ends up her going back to him.

'I would like to avoid dealing with such person. . . ' Eyeing at her cold untouched tea.

"Do you have it?" She asked in a soft voice

' . . . but I can't resist his offers'

"The miracle, do you have it?" 

Konrad smile a little.

"If I do?"

"In exchange for it, I will help with the Monster Forest."

"What could you offer that my thousands knights can't?"

'Thousands? I didn't see a single soul.'

"I am strong and I will continue to get stronger in the future." she confidently believe her own words as long as the system helps her, that is.

"You consider yourself strong?" Konrad's tone is little lower than usual. It came out like he is mocking her. 

". . ."

"Ogres are only Rank F monsters. The weakest among all monsters, slightly stronger than most of Rank F monsters but neverthless Rank F. Their Cheiftain who put hole in that shoulder falls in the same rank "

She clench her fist. She had a hunch that they are not high level monsters but the weakest? She barely get out alive every time. 

'Did I just got lucky? Luck? luck is also a skill . . .  the beginner's luck! am I alive because?'

She cannot argue but also refuse to lose.

"I will be stronger than your knights"

'and Stronger than you. ' She wanted to say the last part but held it in. It is still unfounded confidence and came out of her pride.

". . ." Konrad give her indifferent gaze.

"Your son, Is he back at the forest?"

". . . yes." 

She examined Konrad's expression but nothing gives away. After visiting the town, she observe it as normal peaceful town. No sign of monster attack atleast not recently. The number of knights patrolling are not unusually high. She concluded that the monster forest can be in a very far place from there or it was isolated and guarded. Either way, his people intentionally went inside. They want something from it. The fact they went in again, it was a continuous mission and from that she narrow down the possible reasons.

" Was it to hunt monsters or gather resources?" 

"Both."

"Have you fully explored the forest?" 

Konrad squint his eyes slightly. What does that look mean?

"if not yet, I can give this to you." She continued and open her inventory and pull out a book from her inventory.

[Monster Forest Map]

Konrad didn't say anything and just look at the worn out brown book.

"This will be a great help." 

From the book Konrad raised his blue eyes to her face. That moment she knew, she have something useful. 

"This is a map. The Monster Forest Map" she open the book. A semi transparent hologram came out with brown landscape, lines and blank coordinates floating. She close it after few seconds and toss it back in the inventory.

"How can I trust you it is what you claim it to be?" 

They now both want something.

"How can I trust that you can provide the code? "

The staring contest begins again.

"It is easier to prove what I am saying than you providing me code. If I remember correctly, it is something a person is born with and serves as identification then how will you acquire one?"

****

*Knock Knock

"Come in" An old man in suit opened the door and bow down at the man sitting behind the large table with piles of paper everywhere. It's been like this for days now.

"Your Grace, The young masters had arrived."

"Tell them to report immediately." 

He bowed down and left the office. The count always finish his workload and dislike stacking workpapers at his office but the past few days, the papers in his office continues to rise in volume.

The old man went on the main door and greet two young men that walks in . 

"Welcome back Young Master Theodeos and Young Master Giovanni!" He bow down politely and stay like that until one of them spoke.

"Father is at his office?" Theo remove his dirty cloak and place it in the arms of a maid.

"Yes, young master. His Grace has called for a report."

"Father, We're back." Theo and Gio bow their heads slightly and turn to see their father's side profile. The count is gazing at the large heavy red curtain with gold embroidered curtains.

Theo dropped his eyes as he felt the longing in his father's eyes.

"Father" Theo said in a soft voice.

"I am thinking of giving that child her code." 

"How---- " Theo exactly know who that child is and it hit him who's code Konrad was about to give.

"FATHER! You are giving that unknown child, Kaleena's Code?!!!" Theo raised his voice and walk towards his father's table.

Gio have the gist of what is happening. He raised his head and a set of same blue eyes shook after hearing Kaleena's name but he remain silent and watch his older brother's confrontation.

'Kaleena's code? What will they do to her code?' he thought.

"Father, what are thinking?!!" Theo who slam his father's table emit a dangerous level of cold aura. The stacks of paper violently glides in the air.

"Theodeos! " His father's said in low but powerful voice as he meet his son's trembling eyes. Theo took a step back. He withdrew the cold air and the flying paper scattered to the floor.

". . . "

"That child is . . . like your mother." Konrad broke the silence and look at the curtain's direction again a space in the middle parted slightly underneath the heavy curtain is huge painting of a woman. Her face is half shown. The color of her hair and eyes are black.

"No matter how much that child reminds you of mother, Giving Kaleena's code is too much." Theo who just calm down sounded sad and defeated. He can see how much his father longs for her mother.

"That child feels like Kaleena is back." Konrad, put his hands together and lean his head and close his eyes.

". . ." his sons didn't protest. In this world, having either black hair or black eyes is rare but having both is the rarest among all.

"Why Kaleena's code?" Gio's hood was remove by earlier's violent air. His long silver hair hanging, as he opens his mouth. He is processing everything slowly

"I will . . . I will get you another code, just don't. . . " Gio is clenched his hands tightly that his nails begin to dug his palms.

"Where would you get code with black hair as characteristics?" Konrad sighed and remember his visit to that child earlier.

"It is easier to prove what I am saying than you providing me code. If I remember correctly, it is something a person is born with and serves as identification then how will you acquire one?"

Konrad knows she is not telling the whole story. Konrad can see through her. She masked away her confusions and fears, taking calculative talks and deals for someone who don't have memories she is doing a good job. 

'That's right, don't trust anyone easily.'

"Good question." Konrad get up to his seat and walk towards the door but he stopped and turn to face her again.

"If I want I could just steal that book away from you." Konrad test her limits. Her eyes changed, she look straight at his eyes with blank expression. The gaze he is so familiar with. 

"Go ahead and try." She said flatly. No hostility nor welcoming challenge feeling just pure conviction. 

'How far will you go?' Konrad was intrigued.

"I can make you give it to me willingly."

Her eyes shook strongly yesterday when Konrad told her about the code but right now she look calm.

" Like I said, Go ahead and try. "

That's when it was clear to Konrad. That calm eyes is a pair of dead eyes. She will risk it all. 

Now that Konrad is looking at his son's eyes, anxiously waiting for an explaination why is he giving Kaleena's, their sister's code to an unknown child. Konrad had nothing else to say but . . .

"Go and see for yourself."







Assuming the life and name of the missing member of a noble family Kaleena Alexanders, the youngest daughter of a Count. Her new identity and power is in exchange of tracking the responsible ones for the 'real' daughter's disappearance.

Being part of an influential family takes more effort than she bargains for. 

Uncovering her own past and identity, it seem to be eerily connected to the 'real' daughter's disappearance and it may not be as simple as it is.

Confused and questioningly as it is, she have one more secret ought to keep.

[Welcome Back, Player]

~ New Quest Has Arrived ~

With the help of the unknown power called 'System'. She begins to put puzzles together.

Caught between her past and present self, her double life begins, a pretentious noble daughter on public and a self-serving fugitive in private.

How much more secrets can she keep?

****

The cricketing sounds of crickets could be heard noisily as the night stretched on, covering the sky with star-lit darkness, blanketing the earth's surface as the moon rose into the middle of the sky and shone specifically on a suburban city, where a particular person's house was housing the happening of an exclusive but secret phenomenon, that had recently occurred to the few chosen people, following the outbreak of dungeons and monsters appearing in mysterious landmasses that had magically burst out of the earth's crust in what seemed to be randomized locations.
Mysteriously enough, and fortunately, if you consider the benefits that the government had obtained from keeping the phenomena a secret to the public, the landmasses and dungeons never spawned anywhere near the residential areas where the majority were non-assimilators; plus, strangely, the monsters occasionally escaping from the secured hidden dungeons located in the landmasses, that had been facilitated by the government; never seemed to go anywhere near normal people either.
Their trails indicated that the escaped high-tier monsters traveled to abandoned places where their animal prey would always be abundant.
But where normal people would never think of going.
The secret subjugation squads consisting of high-ranking assimilators and norms that were tasked to bring down the escaped monsters had always succeeded in their missions without any casualties; from the norms that is.
But there were deaths and injuries from the assimilators in the squad and from the other places.
They did not know why at the time.
The squads had reported that they would always encounter the monsters in secluded places while snacking on several unfortunate Hunter-Job-Assimilators who were unalerted as they were just on their way to special hidden homes after a monster-decreasing mission from the government just before the high tier monster escaped.
In the battle with the squads, the high-tier monsters would always only aim for the assimilators whenever they had the chance; even though they would always be overwhelmed by the splendid teamwork of those high-rankers.
While the monsters would frequently stay as far away as they could from the normal fighters who were much weaker as they got wounded by magic-reinforced weaponry that the norms possessed.
The strong high-ranking monsters seemed wary of the normal people. But why?
They had, of course, no reason to be afraid, as they could stand a fair chance even against many high-ranking assimilators.
Normal people, even veteran fighters, would act as dolls for them.
Unfortunately, though, the squads were too focused on quickly subjugating the monsters; so that they could return to their secret HQ to boast about their success; and to of course get their hefty payments and a promotion for a job well done; while hoping that tomorrow, another monster would escape along with another day of infamy and well-riches for them; ultimately ignoring the many hardships that were brought upon the low-ranked assimilators once the monster stepped out of the high-tier hunting grounds in the landmasses to the outside world.
So they never thought too much about the beasts' strange attitude towards the normal fighters of the team.
And usually, these escaped monsters were in the Category III Phases and were, therefore, stronger and harder to keep control and for low-ranked assimilators to deal with.
That was why they could escape from the seemingly perfect barrier the government had established around the landmasses with the help of a few high-ranking assimilators.
They needed a lot more of high-ranking assimilators to fight the strong escaped monsters.
But the high-ranking officials were too selfish and they sent out too many High-Rankers.
Therefore, subjugations became relatively easy.
The squads were even able to bring back some of the escaped monsters alive to their HQ after they put them to sleep; as per the request of the higher-ranking officials who wanted to learn more about the nature of these beasts.
As they were not allowed to capture alive a monster that was kept in the monster tier grounds of the landmasses and bring them out to special labs, they could only rely on high-ranking monsters that occasionally escaped.
Or more like they couldn't. Lowest-tier monsters; like the Brown Wolf, or the Slime, would always perish not long after they were taken out from the mystical aura that surrounded their landmasses' Secret Facility. Stronger mid-tier Monsters; like the Monsterized Tiger or the Mythril-Fanged Lycan, could stay outside longer. But was still not long enough for tests.
High-tier monsters were truly monsters indeed; they could stay outside for very long periods once they escaped.
It could be because they were capable of accumulating the substances of the landmasses' aura inside their bodies; that they did not need to always be around their home.
Another one of the reasons why they frequently escaped, it seemed.
Hell, some of the more freakish scientists even hoped that a lot of the high tier monsters would escape, as they would have many test subjects.
The idea of subjugating a high tier monster in its territory shuddered their very souls.
Not to mention the high rankers' stubborn attitudes.
Finally, the scientists had gotten their hands on live monsters.
Immediately, they began their experiments with high hopes.
On the occasion, they stumbled upon a deadly revelation; one that they could not determine when they were experimenting on dead monsters.
One of the results was that the atoms of live monsters were capable of secreting an extraterrestrial virus that would spread exponentially once released.
Further experiments showed that the assimilators were immunized by the mysterious computers that also assimilated the codes to them; while normal people were vulnerable against the consequences.
This was ironic as to how the monsters would do anything they could to get out of reach of any normal person.
Seemed like the virus didn't have the same ideals.
Even though they were literally in a state of symbiosis.
By the time the scientists had nearly confirmed everything they knew and what they could get from the captured live monsters; it was too late.
Nearly every normal person in the vicinity had caught the virus and was subdued in predetermined times; mostly a month after they were diagnosed.
Though most tests led to the possibility of the virus incubating inside the majority of the positively diagnosed nineteen days before the symptoms started to show.
The COVID - 19 Virus.
And even though the area of this suburban city was secretly stated as one of the danger zones, not many virus cases occurred and the residents were living relatively in peace.
In a brightly lit bedroom, in one of the houses in a district of the suburban city, where the snoring sounds of a single teenager could be heard, an articulate voice of a young female sounded reverberatingly around the room.
The female computer's voice was overlapping with the youth's harsh breathing.
It seemed something big was occurring to the bedridden teenager, something regular assimilators could only hope that it might suddenly happen to them while being unbeknownst to him...

The window glowed brightly as if trying to rival the blinding light of the room as it displayed its contents, while the host's snores had already rivaled the roar-like-sound of the Leviathan's yawn as it woke up from its five-hundred-year slumber far out in the North Javan Sea near the Islands of Karimun Jawa...

In a brightly lit bedroom where the snoring sounds of a single teenager could be heard, an articulate voice of a young female sounded reverberatingly around the room.

 Initially, Fatty Hai had thought that Yue Yang would advance with everyone together . But instead, he split the team into two groups .
Ye Kong estimated that the difficulty of this training had just become at least three times higher just by bringing this fatty along .
If not for him now owning a beast again, Ye Kong would not dare to say that he could guarantee the safety of this stupid pig .
In another group, Yue Yang took Yue Bing and Yi Nan along and headed towards the southern road that he had walked through previously . Without stopping to rest, he began to recount to Yue Bing what he had experienced when he had passed the trial by himself . Yi Nan felt that it was a little weird, and said, "We'll talk about it when we get to those checkpoints . It's still far too early right now . "
The moment they came out of the auction house, she could feel that Yue Yang had planned to take big risks .
She was not able to guess what Yue Yang's plan was, but she felt that it must be extremely tough and dangerous .
Initially, Yue Bing had thought of convincing Yue Yang not to do whatever it was he was planning, but he was her big brother after all . No matter what, she felt that she should give 100% of her support to whatever Yue Yang did . Besides, she knew he was not a hot-headed person and would probably not act rashly . Most importantly, she saw faint trace of Yue Yang's determination, and it had strangely increased her confidence in his complete success . .

Thus, Yue Bing decided not to bog her brother down .
Suddenly, Yue Yang grasped Yi Nan's shoulders and warned her softly, "Brother Yi Nan, although I'm leaving Yue Bing in your protection, I feel a little uneasy . She still hasn't grown up and is still a huge loli . You can't swing that way, do you understand? Also, you're now considered her brother (TL note: "oniisan"), so you have to take care of her well . At most, I'll introduce you to some pretty girls next time!"
After waiting a moment for Yue Yang to bring Hui Tai Lang far away, Yi Nan lightly sighed, saying, "Yue Bing, your brother really is a huge idiot . "
Yue Bing nodded her head and agreed, "Sister Yi Nan, there was no other way it could be . My brother was shut inside the house for far too long . "
What they could not understand was that Yue Yang had actually intentionally done this . Regardless of whatever he did, he would just pretend that he could not recognise Yi Nan as a girl . Otherwise, how would she have let him hold her shoulders like that? Men and women were different . Once the differences were realized, it would probably be difficult for Yue Yang to grope and take some advantage of her . The situation right now was not bad at all . He could embrace her, hug her and touch her as he pleased…
The first time he had passed through the Blackstone Labyrinth, Yue Yang, who had the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice, only used six hours to complete the route which would take others at least three days .
Since he was coming back here for the second time, he could easily breeze through even without the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice .
He dashed onwards, and rushed to the base of the Ten-thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree within the next three hours .
When he arrived, he did not instantly move on to the Demon's Blood Pond to kill the Nine-headed Monster, but rather rested on the treetops for a while . He was borrowing the Ten-thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree's spiritual energy to improve his abilities, allowing him to attain his peak form before moving on to Demon's Blood Pond . His objective was not to kill a Nine-headed Monster, but to capture a juvenile Nine-headed Monster, and use it to trade for the Fruit of Wisdom and the Lustrous Branch of the Tree of Life alive . This level of difficulty was a headache even for Yue Yang who had already reached the Innate realm . The Nine-headed Monster was not an ordinary monster . As long as it had matured, it was minimally a Bronze-ranked Level 7 or above beast . Adding its huge size, deadly poison, and the consecutive attacks from the nine heads, it caused people to be unable to defend against attacks coming from it .
If this Blackstone Labyrinth did not have a rule that prohibited the use of magic, then Yue Yang, who possessed the Innate Sword Qi, would not have to feel nervous at all .
But within the Star's Domain, Yue Yang could only defend himself and was unable to attack .
Using Xiao Wen Li, the Barbaric Cow Shadow and Hui Tai Lang to overwhelm and kill the family of Nine-headed Monsters, then capturing a juvenile Nine-headed Monster was a completely unrealistic move, nor was it smart to do so . Therefore, a good plan had to be thought up that could allow him to capture a juvenile Nine-headed Monster alive and safely escape .

Therefore, long before they had come to the Blackstone Labyrinth, Yue Yang had already thought up of a good plan .
But, it was extremely dangerous .
A single misstep could cause his untimely demise .
This plan was to use the teleportation scroll . He would lure a juvenile Nine-headed Monster out of the Blood Pond, then activate the teleportation scroll .
If the teleportation succeeded, the Nine-headed Monster would be teleported with him in front of the Warrior's Guild, or at the teleportation area set up secretly during the campaign to the abyss .
Although he could use his own power back at the Warrior's Guild, it was extremely easy to expose his identity as an Innate Ranker . He could not say for certain that there would not be greedy mercenaries trying to steal it as well . What if someone was hurt or died in the commotion, the Ancient Code might cause him to hold responsibility for it . If, through an interpretation of the Ancient Code, it was decided that the death was caused by him, he could be punished like Shi Ming was by these Ancient Code and be sentenced to death via explosion .
He did not understand the Ancient Code a single bit . If it was brain-dead and made whoever started everything responsible for murder, then he would be in deep trouble .
The second possibility was to teleport to the Ancient Battlefield in the abyss .
In that place, there was a high chance that there could be a hundred thousand demons that were preparing to storm into the Soaring Dragon Continent or Tong Tian Tower at any time . If he teleported there, he would most likely be brutally surrounded by a hundred thousand demons .
Since he was a man, he should be fearless and brave .
Compared to the incomprehensible and uncontrollable Ancient Code, Yue Yang would rather choose the abyss . It would be far better to fight against a hundred thousand demons than to helplessly explode and die . At least, in the abyss, he could cut a path out of the battlefield . With the Innate Sword Qi, two summoning grimoires, Xiao Wen Li, the Barbaric Cow Shadow, the mysterious Gold Beast and the Golden Thorny Flower, even the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice and Hui Tai Lang…
Would it really be impossible to come back after taking a trip to the abyss?

No .
Yue Yang had complete confidence in himself . As long as he did not meet a strong foe who was of Demon Lord class strength, even if it was a Demon General who initiated an all-out battle on him, he would not need to fear anything .
Leaving from under the shade of the Ten-thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree, he saw a sky filled with stars .
Yue Yang felt that he was so close to the stars at this moment, it was as if he could pluck them out one by one, just by stretching his hands out . Then, looking again, he felt that they were so far away, only small dots of starlight, not knowing how many millions of light-years away it came from…
The universe that contained the sky and the earth and the myriad of living beings was far too mysterious .
After a brilliant sigh naturally formed in his heart, Yue Yang suddenly felt his mind begin to enter a strange yet wonderful state . It was as if his heart had opened up and expanded limitlessly, stretching to the furthest ends of heaven and earth . His body slowly disappeared, leaving his soul to fly freely around in the sky . Yet it felt like his soul was still continuously expanding, as if he was a giant looking at the myriad of rivers and valleys on the earth . He was like a powerful creator, looking down at all the living beings on the earth, looking at the swaying of the plants, the birds flying around, and the vast variety of living beings which formed a circle of life that was wonderful without compare . It was a perfect, endless cycle .
Yue Yang felt that after seeing such an amazing natural scenery, it seemed like he had understood a kind of secret that was hard to express in words .
But the more secret he understood, the more he was bewildered .
He found out that the more he knew and the more he was able to achieve, what he had originally known was just a grain of sand in a vast ocean of knowledge .
And, compared to the power of the millions of beings roaming the heaven and the earth, he, who had seemed to be extremely strong, was obviously still an insignificant existence… Compared to the entire universe, he was just a small part of one of the millions and billions of planets, just like a drop of water in the big ocean .
A light of wisdom rose from his soul .
In that instant, something formed inside of his body, as if a kind of energy had condensed into a sphere; yet it was clearly different from his Innate Sword Qi .
When the Ten-thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree started emitting a faint green radiance and resonated faintly with the condensed sphere of energy within Yue Yang's body, Yue Yang finally realised that he had understood the 'Heart of Nature' that he had never been able to clearly grasp before . The world's Innate Rankers were definitely the closest to nature . After all, only by controlling heaven and earth could one control everything .
After understanding the Heart of Nature, this was equivalent to opening a huge door within the Innate realm .
This… was also a sign of a new realm .
When Yue Yang's Heart of Nature resonated with the Ten-thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree, he had found out astonishingly that the effects of the Ancient Code that restricted his body's power had lightened considerably .
Under the Ten-thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree, he quietly cultivated for another day, before moving to the Demon's Blood Pond .
After understanding the Heart of Nature, Yue Yang felt more certain that he would succeed .
This time, Yue Yang would not send Hui Tai Lang out, but rather, he would let a Phantom Shadow float into the Blood Pond and prepare to assault a juvenile Nine-headed Monster .
The female Nine-headed Monster who had lost an egg had become extremely vigilant . It appeared almost instantly when the Phantom Shadow appeared . The female Nine-headed Monster broke out of the surface of the pond and roared angrily . Instantly, the entire family of Nine-headed Monsters became restless .
When they appeared on the coast, Yue Yang immediately began his fiendish attack .
A second later, Yue Yang, along with a mature female Nine-headed Monster, two semi-mature Nine-headed Monsters and two juvenile Nine-headed Monsters, were teleported at the same time to the ancient battlefield in the abyss .
When Yue Yang raised his head, he abruptly saw tens of thousands of demons, led by dozens of Demon Generals looking at him with their jaws dropped…

The Soaring Dragon Continent is a world of summons, you can only become strong if you become a summoner! Yue Yang, an average high school boy, was suddenly kicked into this world. When he woke up, he was greeted with a lot of worried faces and found out that he had assumed another person’s identity. Turns out he’s the good-for-nothing third son of the Yue Family, who had just recently drowned himself because of a failed engagement. Unlike the third son of the Yue Family who was useless in summoning, Yue Yang succeeded in making a contract with a summoning grimoire on his first try, even when the other guy failed for the past fifteen years. Others would have a headache making contracts with beasts afterwards, but countless beasts tried to gain favour with Yue Yang instead, acting like a good kid before him.
Yue Yang the brat, however, didn’t feel grateful at all: “Scram, Mythical Beasts! Do you think you are cool like that? Go away from me now, I only like beautiful summons!”
Even when royal families approached him for his talents, the shameless brat replied, “I’m not interested in government stuff, I’m only interested in beauties!”

I would also like to tell you that this is not my work. I have just improved the Translation where it could be improved and I have provided all the links that the real author in some chapter so do check them out. Thank You.

"Can you tell me anything you know about the Genderuwo, Team."
It was what written by the mail from the CEO who had done the ritual of final sending for the fallen kid who they had slain before as the kid requested.
Then, he observed at the mail he had sent through his phone, and the email had come with the content written,
"It was a rare sight if there is a monster named Genderuwo is being seen. As I know, if the monster is spawning. Then it means that the danger is closing."
Hu Jia Hao called the woman in the mail immediately when he had read those.
Tutt... Tutt... Tutt...
"Hi, Boss. What do you need... KYA!!!"
Boom!
A voice of explosion being heard by the  CEO who had heard that. Then... The phone call voice had been toned down as he did not know what happened. Then, he sent the message from the messenger,
"Cultivation Madness HQ: Code Red! This is not a drill! Code Red!! Code Red!!"
Meanwhile, at the Cultivation Madness HQ, Yao Xuan was being alerted by the explosion voice as well. Which led her to move towards the source of the voice almost immediately.
In the chatgroup, everyone wondered.
"Code Red? What the hell!"
"It could only happen when the damage is too big."
"What happened @HJH CEO?"
"I will go there straight away."
The panicked Hu Jia Hao replied to the chat straightaway as he said,
"Don't! The attack is too catastrophic. It is impossible to avoid damage anymore. Peace to the fallen, secretary Wang."
 "Rest In Peace"
 "Rest In Peace"
 "Rest In Peace"
 "Rest In Peace"
 "Rest In Peace"
The position returned to the place where Yao Xuan had entered the place that engulfed by the flame. She reacted,
"What happened? Anyone here??!!"
She looked at the left and right. Then she reacted,
"Shit! I have to get out from the..."
Buk!!
At the place where the CEO had stood, he moved fast towards his electric car. And then, he drove in.
Inside his car when he drove the car at the speed of 90 miles per hour, he tried to call Yao Xuan. However, the same message was always showing up as,
"Sorry. The one you call was not responding. Please try again."
"Fuck! Don't tell me that the explosion was gone even crazier!!" Hu Jia Hao scowled as he pushed his electric car's speed limit to 140 Milles per hour in order to do things fast. To him, his employee's safety was everything. He willing to sacrifice everything for his employee, but how. One person had died during the incident, and another one was...
And the story continues.
