Chapter 1 A child who lives in a graveyard

In a cemetery on the outskirts of the village, there was nothing different from any other cemetery. There were many headstones arranged and only the sound of the wind rustling the trees as no one spoke in that place.

But there is something different about this grave from other graves. That is, there is a house made of thin wood that is very fragile. If the weather is hot then the house will feel hot, if the weather is rainy then the house feel very cold. And it feels like if someone accidentally bumps into the house, the house will immediately collapse.

Inside the house lived a 14-year-old boy with black hair, black eyeballs, a thin and tired-looking body. The child was unfortunate to live in a very small and inadequate house that was filled with the aura of the dead because it was in a cemetery.

He lives alone because he was left dead by his parents because of the attack of beasts 3 years ago. The village where he lives is quite safe from beast attacks because there are no strong beasts around the village, but disaster can come at any time.

In this world, if you want to live properly, you can only become a warrior. Besides you can earn money by hunting monsters you can also become strong and can protect yourself.

Similarly, not everyone can become a soldier or police officer in the other world. In this world, not everyone can be a warrior either. They must have an unyielding spirit in practicing their body and technique every day.

And unfortunately, the child's parents were not warriors and they did not have the talent to become warriors and only became ordinary citizens who helped the warriors transport their game. While the child's parents were helping the warriors carry the game. The mother of the beast hunted by the warriors suddenly appeared in front of them and attack the people around the body of her child.

And because the child's parents were not warriors they were one of the first to be killed by the beast attack to avenge the death of her son. Although in the end, the warriors were able to kill the beast's mother. Lives that have been lost cannot be returned.

Because of the guilt of the warriors towards the citizens who were killed because of their negligence. They also compensated every child who lost their family by paying for their lives expense until they were 15 years old.

Of course, it was not difficult for the warriors because the compensation money was only a small portion of their assets.

In this world, when children reach the age of 15, they are considered adults and live on their own with their own responsibilities. So the compensation money will be stopped and they will no longer have any responsibility to the dead person.

Currently, the boy is training to prepare himself to become a warrior and enter the warrior academy. To get into the warrior academy, everyone is required to undergo various tests that must be passed.

And the most important test is the physical strength test because that is the key to becoming a warrior, therefore the child practiced very hard to pass the test.

The child is currently very thin and malnourished because the compensation money from warriors is not much and only enough for daily meals. He seems to have an aura that is quite different from children his age.

Maybe it was because he lived in a house that was in a cemetery and had thin walls so that the night wind could enter his house when he was asleep.

"Only two more months until the test to enter the academy."

Bobby sighed as he knew that the time for the test was approaching. Yes the child's name is bobby.

"I have to practice today, to get into the warrior academy you must have at least 100 kg of punching power and 10 km of running stamina."

Currently, my punching power has reached 45 kg and my stamina is 5 km without stopping. I need to increase my punching power by 55 kg and my stamina by another 5 km.

All right, it's time to practice. The child is currently training his physique so that he can pass the entrance exam by running 10 km per day, pushing up hundred times, sitting up a hundred times, and scot jumping hundred times not forgetting to practice punching, kicking, and avoiding attacks.

Due to the strenuous physical training, the child became hungry more easily than usual so he had to buy cheaper food than he usually bought in larger quantities.

"Huh... my money is about to run out, and soon I won't get any compensation for my parents' deaths."

"And my money will only last for about a month. I have to find another way to earn extra money. To support needs and training."

The only way to earn extra income is by transporting warrior-hunted Beasts and cutting them up. Although it's not much I think it will be enough for my needs until I enter the academy.

"All right, after I finish my daily training I'll try to earn some money."

I ran around the cemetery near where I lived. My current best record is 5 km, I'll try to reach 5.5 km without stopping today.

Unfortunately, I only lasted until 5.2 km.

"hah hah hah, 5.2 km although not on target I'm still better than the previous record. Hah hah..."

Okay, it's time to take a 10-minute break and continue my daily 10 km run.

After he finished his 10 km run he continued to complete his other exercises.

Until 10:00 am he completed the daily exercise routine and returned home to shower and clean up.

After cleaning up, he went to the shopping area that sold beast materials to get some money. Before he went to the shop that sold beast materials, he wanted to try his punching power first.

"Now it's time to test my punching power," Every village has a tool to measure everyone's punching power and it's free because every village is very happy when they have many warriors to protect their village.
