The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

After aking up his mind, Rein got busy with his plans. He was going to act like an absolute genius which would be so baffling to everyone that they would not mind his future transformed form that much. It was a hasty plan and was probably not very good but for the time being it was best that Rein was able to do with his weak baby body.

He started to walk and talk a lot. Many people of the village became familiar with him and this way Rein was able to gather quite a lot of information in the form of stories. To someone else this rule information would not have a high value but for current Rein, this type of information was very very valuable.

Very soon Rein had a good idea about everything and he made a mental note about all the important points. He was feeling a bit uncomfortable with his nerfed memory and remembering ability but he was still able to do at least this much.

So according to the information, this place was like a different world and the power system of this place was very very different. Rein already had a suspicion that there were other worlds in this vast universe but now his speculations became correct.

In this world nothing like magic existed. Most of the people get a certain skill when they turned ten and that skill would make or break their whole life. If that skill was useful or powerful, amazing, your life is all set. But if the ability was weak, then there was nothing that person was able to do. He would not be able to rise in this world.

But abilities were not static, there was a way to improve them with enough practice. It was something like Rien's own ability improving with time but following a studied method this time. It was quite interesting. After learning this Rien's apprehension about his Stell Scale ability disappeared as awakening this skill would not be bad for him.

And as people here would awaken at the age of 10, Rein now had a lot of time to prepare.

Six years passed in a blink of an eye and it was already Rein's time to participate in his awakening ceremony. There were also three more kids who would also be participating alongside Rein and all of them were extremely nervous. Rein fortunately had the same name as his real self and he was happy about it.

He had already done some research about the abilities he had. He did not manage to find any significant information about Furnace Body and Rain Gain but the Steel Scales turned out to be a famous ability. There was even a sect who specialised in training people with scale abilities and Steel Scale was one of their most wanted abilities.

Rein was going to awaken three abilities here but he was definitely going to hide the other two abilities. Firstly they did not sound powerful and secondly, he wanted to have something to back himself up in case of any emergencies. Secondly, awakening more than one ability was very rare and he might find himself to be in trouble for that.

After his awakening Rein was planning to leave the village to join the "Divine Scale Pavillion" which was a powerful sect filled with people who had scale type abilities. That would be the best spot for him to learn and with them Rein would be able to make significant progress toward his goals.

Rein had checked all the achievements he could fulfill and found that all of them needed him to have his abilities active. There were some simple and easy ones too but most of them were quite hard and demanding. So having the support of a sect who had well researched ways to strengthen the abilities would be a good choice for him.

The ceremony went as he had expected. He awakened that Steel Scale and that made everyone to be surprised. Rein took that chance to immediately hide the activation of his two other skills. Fortunately no one noticed that and Rein was happy. Most importantly, the Steel Scale did not make him to look like a monster.

There was a metallic shine to his skin but without looking closer, no one would be able to easily guess that currently Rein was not just a flesh and blood human but he was a man covered in metal.

Other than him there was another girl who was able to awaken a powerful skill. She was also one of Rein's good friends and they had been playing together for a long time. Actually all the children of the village knew each other to a degree. So everyone present here was good friends.

None of the kids got a bad skill but only Rein's and his childhood friend Colinde's skills were a bit special. It was decided that they would be leaving the village with a merchant who did business with them for a better future.

Normally even the talented child would stay with his family for some more time, at least until they grew up a little bit more, but as Rein was much more intelligent than anyone of his age, he was allowed to go out.

The skill that Colinde awakened was "Demon Slaying Sword". It was also a specific ability that allowed her to manifest a sword out of thin air and boosted her abilities a lot when she was fighting against a demon. Technically it was a skill that was stronger than Steel Scale, but as this skill could only be used in certain situations, that brought the quality of the skill down a little bit.

Demons were special lifeforms that hated everything else in the world. They were always trying to destroy the humanity of this world. So it was mandatory to kill a demon as soon as it was seen. Humans and demons had been at war for a long time and this conflict was not going to end soon. So Colinde's skill was definitely valuable.

...

Before leaving the village, Rein and Colinde got engaged with one another. After they came of age, both of them would become husband and wife. Rein thought his current age was not really appropriate for this type of thing but all the family members and especially the girl herself was very happy so Rein accepted it.

Soon they left the village and went to the nearby city. Two of them had been given some money but it was only enough for them to live in the city for a week at most. They needed to find a way to make money soon. They booked a cheap room with two beds in a run down inn and they would be staying here for some time. Find more at mp-y,r.

But before planning for anything else, the first thing Rein needed to do was to try his other abilities out. He had been doing quite a few experiments with them already and had managed to find quite a few interesting things.

Now it was time to perfectly understand his own abilities before anything else.
