2 Caretaker (1/2)
”Master, are you sure of this?”
”Very. Only a d.a.m.n mage could live with vines”
”Then how do we handle this? A mage of the earth affinity could easily uproot trees”
”Use the Heartkiller”
Seeing the omen tree bloom, the merchant could only a.s.sume that Wei was a mage. Fearing his tyranny, he immediately used the Heartkiller.
To his astonishment though, the corpse of Wei and the Heartkiller disappeared. The Heartkiller was a reusable poison and the trump card of their Organization. Losing it would be equivalent to losing the Crown Prince of a nation. Losing all hope of salvation, the merchant took his own life.
The townsfolk waited for days before they gathered the courage to look for Wei. The farm, merchant, and Wei were no longer there. Replaced by a sapling of ivory and teal.
The ethereal tree grew tall enough to rival redwoods and gained an ethereal blue hue. Wei would be named the progenitor of magic as the tree injected mana throughout the continent. Sadly, the network does not consider achievements after death or he would've had 100,000 points.

”Am I destined to be poisoned for every death?”
[WARNING: Host is in critical condition
Strength Demoted to C
Damaged Parts: Burned Right Eye, Broken Right Arm]
Blinded in one eye and crippled in the dominant hand, the kid truly was pitiful. Wei was slightly discouraged however remembered that Vitality had the ability of pa.s.sive regeneration. It was also B-Rank so his injuries would slowly but surely heal.
However, he did not expect a starting point even worse off than Wei's c.r.a.ppy shed. The lights were far dimmer in this one, the wood even shabbier which irked his carpentry spirit, and he was sure that he was lying in horse manure.
Disgusting, he thought. If such conditions were the norm then something must be done.
[Pa.s.sive Clean(-3000)]
[Clean Set(3) Unlocked: Aura of Purification]
The surroundings will be cleansed instead of just him which meant being able to tolerate basically every environment.
Curious of if he died in vain, he inspected the artifact.
[Heart Barrier]
(Stabilizes emotions and emits a barrier when host is vulnerable)
Sleeping is no longer dangerous. With the heart barrier, safety precautions were redundant or even unnecessary.
Regardless, the situation must be a.s.sessed.
You are Shen, a child whose parents had been murdered recently. The a.s.sailants have crippled and burned you and left you for dead. However, you survived and now await the family friend
The shed door slammed open abruptly and a tall man stepped inside.
”Get up, runt. You can't mourn for-”, the man stopped as he noticed that the kid was different.
Yesterday, Shen was s.h.i.+vering in fear and silently crying for his parents. Today, he seemed mature and incredibly determined.
