In this world monster attacks are commonplace. It's not even surprising to hear the news of villages being destroyed by monsters, or cities being attacked by monsters.
That's why the Kingdom of Saintarthe, the largest human empire in the world, requires every fifteen-year-old child to attend school. This is intended so that the Kingdom of Saintarthe has strong human resources, which can deal with monsters.
Every year, the Kingdom of Saintarthe would hold a mass selection for all fifteen year olds. The selection will have two stages, the first stage is Class checking, the second stage is strength assessment.
And at this time, I just did a Class check, and met these three brats.
As I recall, they weren't satisfied with just taking my money, they also beat me until I passed out. Which ultimately led to me entering a remote school with poor caliber, not being able to attend the strength assessment.
“Did you hear Stupid, quickly hand over your money!! If you don't want to, I'll kill you!!”
Geez, ethics in this world is lacking.
If I had heard screams like that, I would have trembled in fear. But now, I've lived more than thirty years in this world, I have a lot of experience in many things. Facing a brat like this, would only embarrass myself.
“Why are you silent, are you underestimating me!!?”
The fat boy clenched his palms, with his fat right hand, he tried to punch Lucas. Unfortunately Lucas is a veteran, the bad boy's fists are certainly nothing to Lucas. With one swing of his arm, Lucas easily parried Fat Boy's fist. Not wanting to end without replying, Lucas went straight to the Fat Boy's right eye.
“Damn it!!! My eyes!!!” The Fat Boy screamed in pain before taking out two daggers from under his clothes. "I will kill you!!!"
What a wild and free world, fifteen year olds are allowed to have sharp weapons.
Lucas immediately scooped up a handful of dirt when he saw the Fat Boy running towards him while holding his dagger in both hands. With dirt in his hand, Lucas immediately threw dirt into Fat Boy's eyes and temporarily blinded him. Before the fat boy regained his sight, Lucas rushed straight to Fat Boy before holding his head with both hands.
With a single breath, Lucas instantly turned Fat Boy's head around and caused a crisp sound to be heard. When Lucas took his head off, Fat Boy fell to the ground with his eyes looking lifeless.
“Y-you killed him!!!” Short Boy screamed as his finger pointed at Lucas.
“You Killer!!!” The Skinny Boy screamed in fright.
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
"Who else cares?"
For me to attack a fifteen year old boy is something that tarnishes my own pride. But who cares about pride, I care more about revenge.
“Ru-run!!!”
“There's a killer!!!”
The two brats were running away while screaming in fear.
Lucas immediately took the two daggers that the Fat Boy had. With one throw, Lucas stabbed the daggers in the necks of each of the two Bad Boys that were running away from him. The two daggers instantly made the two Bad Boys die in silence, as their vocal cords were also crushed.
Lucas looked around. He was in a deserted alley, where no one passed by at all. After making sure that there were no witnesses, Lucas left the hall with a calm heart.
When leaving the alley Lucas was greeted by the city crowd. The city looks very ancient, in contrast to modern cities on earth. People here still rely on horse-drawn carriages for transportation, or even just use their feet.
Walking in the crowd, Lucas looked like an ordinary boy who didn't look like a criminal who had just committed a murder.
Lucas walked to his house in the middle of town.
"What should I do now." Lucas said who had just arrived at his house. “Status Window!”

Even though I just got a class, but in an instant I returned to being Classless. But why do I still have the Hourglass of Regression?
I tapped on the transparent blue screen that appeared before my eyes, at the Hourglass of Regression to be precise, to bring up information about it.
[Hourglass of Regression]
An artifact that exists only one in all timelines. Permanently connected to its owner. Have Skills:
Passive Skill : When the owner dies, time will rewind with a random destination
Active Skill: Rewind time with a specified goal as long as the owner has a worthy sacrifice.
"Very good."
Even though all the results of my hard work for decades were gone, but it was paid off by the Hourglass of Regression. In addition, I also obtained very important information. That is, if I kill a World Calamity Monster, I will gain a Class. What I need to do now is to take advantage of these two things; information and the Hourglass of Regression, to become the strongest.
“But… how can I kill the World Calamity Monster now? Just my level right now is one..”
World Calamity Monsters, as their nickname suggests, are monsters capable of creating disaster for the world. They are the strongest monsters among monsters. One strike from the World Calamity Monster, it could destroy a large city in an instant.
I'm level one, how can I beat them? Even when I was before the Regression, I could only kill the weakest of the six.
“No… wait…!” I remembered something, there was one World Calamity Monster that was being sealed weak. And that Monster was sealed in this city, Skyseal City.
I opened my window, so I could see the castle that was right in the center of the city, that was the Skyseal Castle, which belonged to the lord of the city, Duke Skyseal. It was where the World Calamity Monster was sealed.
"But it will be difficult."
That Duke Skyseal was around level 300, if I go into his Castle to kill that Monster, he will definitely get in my way. Even if I came to him and said that I have a way to kill a World Calamity Monster, he definitely wouldn't believe a level 1 kid.
"The only way is to infiltrate."
But if I do it this way, I won't be able to enter the School. But who cares about school anyway? In the end, the Classless me will only get a bad school.
“Fine I will bring calamity to this city, to slay the World Calamity Monster.”
