Blood was dripping from his head, he was unable to think properly.
A world where the strong rule the weak, where demons and gods exsist. Different dimensions, people with magic and strength. The story of a young boy who became the strongest adventurer across different dimensions.
(About 8 hours ago...)
"Mhmm"
Damion had awoke from his slumber. Damion, a healthy 17 year old boy who hunted for a living in his hometown of Haenlerosen. Both his parents had died in the Great War 16 years ago, he had left in the care of his Uncle Henro
"Are you going to train first?" Uncle Henro had noticed that Damion was standing by the doorway
Damion nods.
"Be carefull, theres's been a lot of monsters roaming around recently" Uncle Henro reminded Damion
"I will be...." Damion said in a soft voice then procceded to leave.
Any person who reaches the age of 17 will have a magical scroll appear before them. This indicates that one is able to see their stats, level, class and skills. Uncle Henro taught Damion that a strengthened body will allow a faster mana flow, Damion has been strengthening his body since he turned 10. For 7 years, he had continously trained his body to be flexible and strong so he could face opponents many times stronger than himself.
[Status Scroll open]
Class: None Level: 10 Vitality: 20 Strength :24 Agility: 22 Defense: 21 Magic: 19 Skills: Heightened Senses, Iron Skin, Shadow Step Special Skills: Posion Strike
Damion looks at his status scroll and closes it before training
He was ahead in level and skill among his age group as he had been training diligently early by himself in a peaceful spot in the forest. Damion had realised at a young age that he needed to gather skills to survive in this harsh world. He had no memory of his parents faces, the only thing he had from his parents was a runestone necklace when Uncle Henro had found Damion under his doorstep with a note saying to take care of him from his parents.
Damion had no resentment against his parents for abandoning him. He knew it was useless to think about why they would leave their own son by himself.

One thousand squats
One thousand sit-ups
One thousand push-ups
20km run around the village
Swordsmanship practice
Bow and arrow practice
Damion did this everyday to enhance his abilities. He also hunted for his own lunch and dinner. He had trained under an old adventurer who retired in the village. The old adventurer would also tell how awesome it was to become an adventurer. Damion wanted to become an adventurer but he kenw that he had to train harder.
"Could you hunt two rabbits, I'll make stew for lunch" requested Uncle Henro.
Damion nodded while grabbing his bow and dagger.
Damion listened and examined the forest for rabbits staying as still as he could to not alert any other prey.
Damion readied his bow hearing leaf litter being moved. He held his breath
"....."
He got one. Damion looked at the rabbit. A rabbit with pure white fur stained with blood.
Now he just needed one more.
[Shadow Step activated]
An arrow had whizzed pass Damion's arm
A sinister crackle came from a nearby bush. Goblins, a group of 7, came out with simple gear. Four swords, two bows and a hobgoblin.
Damion knew he would not be able to win the fight but if he ran back to the village, the goblins would follow , threatening the villlage which had not many strong fighters, most of the villagers were farmers with zero experience for fighting.
The goblins gave Damion no time to think as they chased after him. Damion knew that he had to seperate and kill them off one by one. First was to get out of their sights and hide. Damion hid on top of a tree after getting ahead of the goblins. Now he did not have any area attack magic to deal damage to a group but he knew that his poison strike could take down that hobgoblin after a while.
The goblins had arrived near where Damion was.
[Poison Strike activated]
Damion striked the Hobgoblin leader then proceeded to kill off the two remaining goblin archers
[Shadow Step activated]
Damion avoids the massive club of the raging Hobgoblin. Damion makes the Hobgoblin hit the remaning four goblin warriors saving his strength.
[Poison has weared off from the enemy]
"Wasn't enough?" Damion smirked
As expected his plan to worked out smoothly
What he did not expect was the Hobgoblin to be agile after the poison weared off. The hobgoblin was much faster than expected and caught Damion off-guard.
The hobgoblin had swinged his giant club at Damion who was unable to avoid it
[Iron Skin activated]
Damion suffered a few broken ribs, a broken arm and a head injury . It could have been worse if ha had not used iron skin but it was still bad the shock from the attack had immobilised Damion.
"So this is how I died"
Damion had lived a simple life, it was peaceful. The only regret he had was to leave Uncle Henro alone.
Damion raised his sword
"Come on! Kill me!"
A magneficent glow came from Damion's Runestone Necklace
"It is not time for you to die yet, Master Damion"
