Chapter 1: Too unlucky
City of Acro | 10th Street | 8:10 am | May 5
A bustling and loud street greets you within the City of Acro. Among the vast packs of people, a boy with black hair and an average body and with a face covered with his long hair but gorgeous silky hair with skin almost as white as milk, standing in a corner with a body covered with leather armor and a sword in his back.
This day is special. Four months ago, a group of adventurers invited him to a guild. Yesterday he joined a party with his close senior brother and sister and will join them for a quest.
For Li Yong, this is the first time experiencing a quest. He, Li Yong got the right age four months ago; ages with 15 are the standard people use to start traveling.
after waiting for about 40 minutes, Li Yong slowly sees some familiar face from a distance right at the entrance of 10th Street.
Li Yong quickly reacts and hurriedly runs towards the entrance.
" Hey! Hey! Brother Zhou! sister Mai!"
Li Yong shouted,
"Oh, hello, my man, what's up, dude!" Zhou quickly greets Li Yong and brofist like brothers.
"Hi, sister Mai!" Li Yong presents his hands to clap with Mai.
"We are sorry, Lil bro, we got late because of some business in our guild. But don't worry, we're here now," Mai said with an apologetic face.
"Eh! No, no, no! It's okay! I'm the one who is in debt from you two because I'm in your way."
Li Yong quickly said. It's his first time, and he knows himself that he got no experience at all. So he immediately apologizes to them.
"Okay, we need to go now, we need to get in the south white forest before noon," brother Zhou said so with a severe face.
they started to walk towards the white forest.
"Quests needed to complete within the time limit. Guilds give time limits. Two days are given for our quest. Here Lil brother Yong."
Senior brother Zhou gave Li Yong a small boar leather.

"Oh? What's a 'dere spider'? and beast core?" Li Yong is frowning his eyebrows and with a questioning look. Living within the city walls and not getting in touch any information about the outside world. He is still a newbie.
"yeah! I forgot you are still new within the adventure and cultivation world. Dere spider is a typical monster.
The laws of heavens rank monsters it is common| Uncommon | Rare | Dangerous
| Extreme | Void | and Legendary.
Beast core and items like the silk of dere spider are being dropped by monsters, according to ancients. It is still a mystery how things are within monsters. "
Brother Zhou quickly shares his knowledge for Li Yong to understand the world of adventure and cultivation soon.
Soon enough, they arrived at the white forest. Quickly hide and sneak towards the usual spots of a dere spider. I am fighting for 1 hour.
Li Yong standing there and observing, Brother Zhou and Sister Mai said to him
"Observe us first and accumulate experience."
"Hey, bro, watch your back!" Li Yong soon notices a 'medium-sized dere spider' is sneaking at the back of Brother Zhou. Li Yong instantly runs and quickly stab the dere spider at the end.
*Chak!*
The dere spider then promptly died, and the hole made by Li Yong quickly oozing some green blood.
*shi!~~~~*
'Ding!, you killed a dere spider!'
'+exp 10, 1 beast core, one silk of a dere spider.'
"Oh, nice one, bro! thanks!" Brother Zhou looked behind and gave Li Yong a thumbs up!
"What is that? Hey brother Zhou! a mysterious voice suddenly came out of nowhere!"
"hahahahaha!" Brother Zhou and Sister Mai laugh out loud.
Li Yong again frowning his eyebrows and still with a confusing look
" surprise? I am too, all of the newbies are surprised at first but get used to it Li Yong, they call it Heaven's voice, one of the mysteries of mysteries, Do you got any exp?".
"Uh? it said I got ten exp," Li Yong replied.
"Okay, get the metal ring we gave you and the black pocket, wear the ring," Mai quickly said.
"Okay." Li Yong quickly wear the ring
"then drop blood unto the ring and said 'emerge' in your thoughts," Mai said
Li Yong bites his finger and drops blood, surprisingly his blood fuse into the ring, he then followed what Mai told him.

"Wow!" Li Yong suddenly got greeted by a panel in his mind. "How can I get the items?"
"Now we're in that topic, do again emerge now with your black pocket," Mai said to Li Yong
Li Yong then does follow the process of 'emerging again'.
'emerge!' though in his mind, then the black pocket slowly disappeared.
"then say 'inventory,'" Mai quickly said.
'Inventory'
the black pocket appeared again in his hand.
"Wow! I don't know anything! Hahaha! thanks, Brother Zhou and Sister Mai, for guiding me!"
"No problem! we were just like you when we started our adventure," Sister Mai then replied.
"Okay, let go again for hunting," Brother Zhou said.
After 5 hours of hunting and killing dere spiders, they got to meet the requirements for the quest.
"oh wow, I'm level 5 right now! brother Zhou and sister Mai, what's your level?"
"we're both level 13," Zhou said with a proud smile.
"you must be strong!" Li Yong said.
The night slowly dimmed dark, and they started to light a campfire.
while chatting-
*ahooo!*
"huh, what's that?" Li Yong said.
"what!? Why is that monster in here? but this is only the outer white forest!" Zhou and Mai looked at each other with frightened looks.
"Quick, let's run Li Yong," Brother Zhou hurriedly said towards Li Yong.
"Uh, oka-" Li Yong then replied but suddenly got cut,
Three black unknown wolflike monsters, emitting a dangerous aura and oppressive state!
"f*ck! Uncommon 'demonic' wolves Li Yong and Mai, sprint! I stall them for you two to escape!" Brother Zhou then said with an ordering shout!
"what?! no, come with us!" Sister Mai quickly disagree!
"No, even we three run, we can't fight them with speed; I should sacrifice, now go!"
"Brother Zhou please come with us."
With Mai's understanding and by being more mature, She knows Zhou's decision is the best.
She takes Li Yong's hands then quickly ran towards the borders of the forest!
"Mai! no!" Zhou fighting with three monsters, one monster slip to his presence and hurriedly ran towards Mai and Li Yong.
*ahowll!*
Mai then make the right decision for one's safety again
"Li Yong, RUN!" Mai then hugged Li Yong tightly and made an order
"no!" Li Yong cried heavily
"go on my Lil bro~~" then Mai faced Li Yong with a smile and one sparkling little tear.
Now being 15, he is more mature than he was long ago; he knows that right and wrong.
Li Yong quickly ran and glace again behind, he can see a brother getting his arm ripped off
and then after a sister who soon got devoured.
His mind is full of emotion; unfortunately, the three wolves then notice him.
Being terrified at what he saw, he got stumbled upon the way.
"oh!!?!!!!!!!? what now!!!!!!???" Li Yong then quickly gets up, and at that moment, he loses his direction.
Being pursued by 2 minutes by not knowing anything and being in an unknown place, the calmness never got back even by 2 minutes.
Then by the 3 minutes, he suddenly falls by the cliff he was running too.
'sigh I'm sorry, brother Zhou's sister Mai I can't do even a thing. May God forgive me!'
*Pak!*
his body heavily slammed into the ground, but surprisingly, all his body parts are intact.
then a light shone from above akin to the view of god it engulfed Li Yong's body
