Its been 6 years simce I was born. During this six years i have come to know many things, including where I am, what people cultivate, and what type of place this is.

We are on the continent humas and in the country fire. I got a hold of this knowledge at the village libary my father, charles works at. My mother Clara is the village healer so shes always busy with work and unable to help take care of me so my father takes me to the library with him. On the day my father took me for the fist time where we worked I was ecstatic and disappointed. When I was first born I was unable to understand what everyone was saying as they spoke a whole new language and me being terrible at learning a new language took 5 years to understand what people were saying.

So my disappointment is expected as I was unable to read anything or so I thought yet when I picked up the book I heard that heavenly ding. DING

new skill acquired

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

Language: you are able to understand, read, write, and speak any language you come across.

Ii once again heard the monotone voice of the system after 6 years of cursing it and begging it to come back. After it said what it wanted it disappeared as fast as it came without a single word to me, just the skill and that's it.

As I was able to read I looked through the books as my father did his job as the librarian. My father probably thought that I was pretending to read as he used to smile and do baby talk when he saw me.

the books told me people cultivate many different types of energy but the most common and main paths is qi and mana. Many people cultivate this energy to break there mortal bonds and live longer and become increasingly more powerful. Only those with talent are able to practice and thoe unable to are deemed useless trash. They started testing for talent at the age of ten when it is the best time to cultivate the body to better suit cultivation before stepping on the official path at 16.

True to my thoughts this world is a dog eat dog world. Those with strength rule while those without suffer.
