In the silence of the night, 

Ao Ertian walked along the brightly lit streets. 

Even though it was late into the night. He was still roaming around in happiness.

Tomorrow was the school opening day and was the day he will go to The Central Hall to ask for mana checks.

If He did well, he might even get an invitation from a famous guild and be paid with a lot of money.

A man can dream right?

Ao Ertian just thinking about it made him excited.

“Now I have mana I will see who dares to bully me again."

Ao Ertian had been a subject of bullying a lot of times. His family was not well off. He went to school with no money. He had no friends. There were only people who wanted to step on him.

‘I will not be the same as before as I have been given a chance. I will become the strongest!’

Ao Ertian said with his greatest conviction. of course in his mind though.

He looked at his hands that were filled with lightning mana. It was so beatiful.

“I can use lightning-elemental mana with the mana skill. but It would be nice if I could learn mana skills for other elements too.”

Ao Ertian walked straight along the streets filled with brightly colored lights. Even though it's night now. There were still some people working or hanging around.

Ao Ertian had been walking for a while. He didn't know where to go.

“Actually, I haven't been to the convenience store for a while now since I resigned after I had enough money to buy the phone."

Ao Ertian decided to go straight to the direction of the convenience store.

All In One Convenience Store 

A large shopping cart sign glows green as a point of focus from a distance.

Ao Ertian walked into the front door of the shop.

*ding* *dong*

A familiar sound.

Ao Ertian heard it over and over again until it was implanted into his brain. The store now remains the same. Just like when he first applied for a job until the end of his resignation.

“What a nostalgic feeling.”

Ao Ertian nodded in satisfaction.

“But where is the night shift worker going?”

Ao Ertian had never disappeared from the store while he was working here. But right now, the one who worked in his position was nowhere to be seen.

"Humm, maybe the shop will be closed today?"

Ao Ertian looked around. It was clear that the shop was still open as usual. by looking at fresh food If they really want to close the store, they probably wouldn't think of ordering fresh food to sell for sure.

Because fresh food was expensive.

Ao Ertian, ​​after looking at the fresh food, suddenly felt hungry. He walked over to pick up the food packed in a plastic cup before walking to the side. There was a microwave on the side.

*Ding*

The food that Ao Ertian wanted to eat took about fifteen minutes to heat up. And now the food has been completely reheated.

Ao Ertian took a warm cup of food and walked to the counter to pay the money.

But there was no staff at the counter.

“Not here yet?”

Ao Ertian decided to wait. But it's been twenty minutes now. He couldn't stand it. and walked around to find the staff by himself.

Ao Ertian scratched his chin. He searched everywhere in the store or nearby the store but there’s no sign of the night shift staff. 

And while he was thinking where did the staff go.

On the ceiling of the convenience store, a black shadow flew by with speed.

[Ding!]

[Detected a threat over the host's head. Advise the host to jump to the right side immediately.]

Ao Ertian, upon hearing the system's warning, immediately followed the instruction.

As soon as he jumped to the right side What followed after that was

*Bang!*

A large shadow fell from above. impact on the floor There was a small explosion scattered the dust.

[Detected threat Lv.3, 1 unit, analyzed…]

[Opportunities for hosts to overcome the threat]

[40%]

Ao Ertian, ​​after dodging as the system said.

He looked at the black shadow. appeared as a strange creature the top half was human while the lower half was a spider

The strange creature in front of him was a predator monster.

Ao Ertian , was very terrified. He just stood there dumbfounded and looked at the half-woman and half-spider. with a trembling body

"Why the Arachna here!”

[Arachna , a creature from the second dimension, has the fighting ability of a bronze rank fighter. It is very fast. Arachna, in addition to having a high physical combat ability. The mana consumption level was also at the Bronze level.]

The system gave details to Ao Ertian that was now experiencing breathing difficulties.

Ao Ertian now felt as though he was the victim waiting to be mauled.

The chance of survival was only 40%. What should he do with this situation?

“Hehe, today I seem to be very lucky to have found another delicacy”

Arachna spoke with a sweet human-feminine accent. Just listening to its sound made him feel mesmerized by the spirit.

[Be careful, the host is undergoing a spiritual attack… Turn on the protection system…]

"So heavy!"

Ao Ertian, ​​who was about to lose control of his body and walked over to give his body to Arachna , stopped in place. The system immediately saved his life.

Ao Ertian escaped from Arachna 's spell. He felt that he was going to die.

“Why? Finally, I am going to have a good future. Why did something like this happen?”

Ao Ertian gritted his teeth. Why was it that he was the only one being bullied?

“Why, why does it have to be me!”

Ao Ertian felt anger, hatred, vengeance, he felt like he wanted to explode. For more than ten years he had to endure this kind of condition, even though his life was really getting better.

"Don't think you can do whatever you like..."

Ao Ertian slowly raised his head to look at Arachna who was staring at him as if he was a food with crazy eyes. The surrounding mana gradually flowed into his body.

The air inside the convenience store gradually became heavy. It keep getting heavier and heavier until the glass in front of the shop broke into pieces

Arachna , who was gazing at Ao Ertian, sensed some danger. that radiated from his body.

[Ding!]

[The host is going into -Mana Frenzy Mode-]

[All stats had been upgrade temporary]

[Time until reset 5 minutes]

Ao Ertian didn’t know that mana was controlled by the will. If his will was strong enough He will be able to use it fully.
