Chapter 0+1

When one pondered over it, the circ_u_mstances surrounding human birth were indeed absurd and unfair.

One could be born holding a golden spoon.

Others might be gifted with an extraordinary talent; one that could forge a clay spoon into a spoon crafted from gold if the chance to do so arose.

The inequity of human birth was the same in this world as well. One might be apt to walk down the path of martial arts, while another could be born with a flair for magic. The point being: disparities between the fellow people were distinct since birth.

Me?

I had absolutely nothing.

Chapter 1

”You're from another world, aren't you?”

The boy blinked slowly before he realized that the passerby's words were directed at him.

”Wh, what?”

”Tsk, tsk! I understand that you're fl_u_s_tered, but you need to remain alert and stay on your toes. otherworlders like you may be common here, but it doesn't mean that this city will be kind to the likes of you.”

”...No way...”

Chaos reigned in his mind. The boy's attempt to search through his memories was in vain and it only resulted in the onslaught of a vicious headache. He dropped down, groaning loudly. The man was fl_u_s_tered by the boy's actions and offered his hand to him for support.

”What's wrong? Are you sick?”

”Ah, no. It's just a mild headache...” The boy answered while clutching his head with both hands. The memories that had previously been locked away flooded his mind like a tsunami. The boy gasped loudly. As he took in a deep breath, his body began to tremble.

”...Genavis?”

”Huh? What? I thought you were an otherworlder?”

The man's face was etched with bewilderment as the boy murmured a name, Genavis. The City of Beginnings. The city where the summoned otherworlders first arrived at.

”...What in the world happened to me?” The boy blankly stared down at his hands. They were… small. All the callouses that should have been built up on his palms were gone. No, it wasn't just that. His line of sight was lower than usual. Which meant… he had become shorter. The boy hastily raised his hands and rubbed his face all over.

His palms came into contact with nothing but soft, smooth skin; the scars that had covered his face were gone. He immediately threw his hands down and lifted up his shirt.

Nothing. No defined abs, no scars, nothing.

”...Are you sure you're alright?” The man looked genuinely concerned, since all he could see was a young boy who had been standing dumbly, suddenly stripping off his clothes.

”...What year is it right now?” Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click for visiting.

”What?”

”In the Erian calendar, what year is it?”

”...1103.”

The man answered tepidly. 1103 Eria. There was no doubt about it now. He had returned to the past.

Eria. He himself had no idea about what this bloody world was. However, this world had summoned various people from all dimensions - otherworlders - to itself. 13 years ago, Lee Sungmin was suddenly summoned to Eria without any reason.

NO CLA_S_S.

13 years ago, when he was summoned as an otherworlder to the continent of Eria, that was the class bestowed upon him. No Class- in other words- meant that the host was a blank page; able to learn anything with a special growth bonus. In a way, it was quite a ”fair” rule, since some had trained in martial arts long before they were summoned to Eria, and others in magic.

But in reality, No Class possessed nothing. They hadn't trained themselves in martial arts nor did they study magic in the past. If they hadn't been summoned to Eria, then they would've been destined to live normal lives without an inkling of knowledge regarding the existence of such skills and techniques.

In short, No Class referred to the absolutely normal and mundane.

Before he returned to the past, Lee Sungmin survived for 13 years on Eria as a No Class. He didn't show any outstanding abilities, yet he proved that he wasn't one to be taken lightly.

Nevertheless, he died.

It was an insignificant death. Lee Sungmin mused as he leaned against the wall of an alleyway. Yes, it was a worthless death, that was certain. As long as you started as a No Class, your limits were clear as day; no matter how much of a blank page you were and possessing the ability to learn anything, how could you learn when there wasn't anything to learn in the first place?

Some people were summoned to Eria with full command over unrivaled martial techniques. Even more people started while possessing first-rate magical abilities. No Classes- without any learnt abilities to speak of- started at a fundamentally different level when compared to them. Even if they may have all started at Genavis, while Lee Sungmin, a No Class fought low-class monsters tooth and nail in a desperate attempt to not die, the others breezed by, slaughtering monsters left and right.
