Chapter 38 My family''s entanglement with a Hero candidate


    (Third person PoV)


    Dorian was the son of a farmer. He was the only child and that''s what his parents decided to do. Feeding themselves is already a trouble for the family with meager earnings. So he has to grow up alone, while his parents worked on the farm during the day.


    His parents saved every coin that they could. He couldn''t understand why, but that became clear when he came to age. They were saving for his awakening. The awakening doesn''t cost much due to the kingdom''s subsidies.


    The kingdom needs as many awakened as possible to keep the neighbors and the monsters at bay. So themoners would only have to pay 10% of the fee, while the kingdom bears the remaining 90% of the cost.


    The cost for awakening might be very low but the costs thate after that are very high. It was not easy to upgrade. The awakened need equipment, weapons, and potions to go into the dungeons or wilds. If they were ill prepared that could cost their lives.


    His parents were saving so that he could afford them if he seeded in awakening. It was after all not a guaranteed process, especially among themoners. So not everyone would go through the process. To many, it was a waste of money.


    Dorion''s parents never went through the ceremony, because their families couldn''t afford the cost, but they decided that their son should have a chance. Whether he seeds in awakening or not, as his parents they felt that they couldn''t deprive him of this chance.


    He was almost fifteen and once he crossed that age, the chances of sessfully awakening started to drop. When he bes an adult, the chances would be zero. So they saved as much as they could and took him to awaken.


    Luckily Dorian awakened. He got a rare chance during his awakening. He got a system during his awakening. He didn''t understand what it could do but with the help of the system, he started his great adventure and never looked back from that day, not until he arrived at the gates of Winter City.


    After awakening he spent all his time in the forests and dungeons upgrading his levels. After months of hard work, he reached the peak of Tier-0 and to move to the next rank, he had toplete the promotion mission. It can only be taken from the Magic Association branch in a city.


    The nearest to him was the Winter City, ruled by the Frostwolf family. Even though his vige belonged to another lord, this was the closest to his home. So he chose toe here for the promotion mission.


    When he arrived there were a lot of people waiting in multiple queues waiting for their turn to enter the city. He didn''t want to waste any time, so he directly chose the queue that had only one member passing through, but that''s when everything changed.


    "Boy, who do you think you are to stand in this line?" an arrogant voice came from the car in front of him.


    Dorion didn''t think about it and kept his silence.


    It was then the car driver got out, "Boy, didn''t you hear my master''s question? Why are you here?" he asked.


    Dorian curled up his lips and said, "To enter the city of course. Why else would I be in the queue?"


    He immediately understood that the one in the car might be from a noble family but he didn''t put him in his eyes. If it were before he had to be afraid but these past few months he saw the power of the system that appeared during his awakening.


    With the help of the system, he upgraded faster than anyone he knew. The children that awakened along with him, were still tens of levels behind him. In his vige, the chief was the highest ranked. He was said to be Tier-1 level 72.


    Dorian knew that one day he would surpass the chief and be the most powerful but his aim was not that. He wanted to be the strongest in the world and rule it.


    The driver snorted, "Boy, you are in the wrong ce. This entry is exclusively for nobles, go to themoner entry points and wait there for your turn".


    Dorian sneered, "I''ll be the most powerful one and will rule this world. So me in this queue is not wrong, it can considered as your honor that you are entering the gate before me", he said.


    "Presumptuous", the young master got down from his car.


    He was angry. How dare themer think that he should be honored that he was able to enter the gate before thatmoner.


    This was a naked spitting on the nobles. He can''t let it go or else the pride of the nobles, his pride would be tarnished. He wouldn''t be able to stand with his head up in the social circles if he let this go.


    "Guards", he shouted, "Kill this bastard who dared to look down on the nobles and the royals".


    The people who gathered around started to murmur in low voices. They felt that the young boy was done for. He never should have said those words.


    Even Dorian felt the murderous gazes of the guards. They were not weak like their chief. He could see that the weakest of them was Tier-2. He would be dead if he didn''t run. He was getting ready to run, as his life depended on it.


    It was then that they heard theugh of someone and everyone stopped in their tracks. The guards and even the young master easily recognized who it was that had justughed.


    When Dorian turned around he saw a young man, who slowly strode towards the guards and the young master, "I didn''t think to see such entertainment as soon as I returned home", he chuckled.


    Dorian felt that the young boy may lookmon but by no means he wasmon.


    "System, show me his status", he gave amand.
