Chapter 1 - Betrayal

Covered in a puddle of his own blood while it's being washed away from the heavy rain from the dark sky he wonders. 'What went wrong?'

A sword was stabbed through his chest into his heart while he contemplated this. 'I tried to save everyone.'

'So why did when I needed help I was betrayed.'

As his body lays on the rough rocks he can feel his consciousness start to fade. He knows he is dying but he still wants to survive. 'I trained repeatedly for 50 years to complete my mission so how did I fail.'

As hundreds of thoughts ran through his head he could only think of one possibility. 'Were humans really not as good as they seemed?' As he thought of this he felt like someone came and slam a hammer on his head.

He was a hero someone who was taught that the monsters were evil and the humans were good. If he questions this ideology it feels like his years of training were wasted. As he thinks back to why they betrayed them a single sentence repeats in his mind.

"You were too powerful. We were scared you would one day beat the tower and take everything inside of it."

Thinking of that his fist clenched and blood seem to start coming out of it. His body was becoming weaker and weaker. He was a childish person and this childishness became his downfall.

As his gaze starts to waver he could feel his eyes slowly closing.

He lets out a hoarse laugh "I should have realized that humans and monsters aren't the symbols of good and evil."

As his eyes close his clenched fist slowly starts to loosen up.

There laid a surprising sight the hero was actually just a 14-year-old kid. As his armor slowly disappeared symbolizing his death completely. You see a brown hair kid with his clothes filled with bloodstains.

The boy even though dead his soul still was conscious.

He felt nothing he was just there floating in a boundless void. As he kept flying he felt like he seen light in a tunnel.

As he kept going closer he noticed a narrow hole.

As he finally comes out of the narrow hole he could feel his body being held by another person.

The boy felt smaller as he was held. He couldn't see like something was covering his vision. He started crying for some reason even he didn't know why.

While crying he started being held by someone as they whispered words he couldn't understand in his ear.

As those words he couldn't understand were said he still felt calm. He could feel the warmth and love from the words alone, leading him to fall into a deep slumber.

*2 years later*

A child with black hair that is so beautiful and silky it looks otherworldly. as he is running you can see his chubby build due to baby fat but one of the things that is a major part of his looks is his eyes.

His eyes are a deep blue crystal-like color. They seem to shine in the sun and they release a glow in the night. His eyes seem pure and innocent like an angel.

As he runs you see a 6'3 black hair man running behind him. This man has handsome features and looks to be in his 30s. He has a clean face without a beard on it and has deep green eyes from his ability. His eyes seem to represent the forest and purity itself. He has a sharp jawline with a nice pointy nose. His lips are a little big but they are nice alongside his features. He has a confident walk and stance. But in front of his child and wife, he is but a simple dad.

"Chang-min comes here you have to eat your food!"

"I don't want to dad!"

The dad could have caught up to the child but kept a mild pace behind the kid

As the dad speeds up he quickly picks up the baby into his arms

Chang-min sighs at how he couldn't get away but it was normal

It's 2054 and the tower has descended from an unknown place that no one knows where

When the tower came the different races came alongside them. Lizardmen, centaurs, dragons, wyverns, elves, and even orcs. But it was said that they came in peace strictly due to the tower wanting to make it a world not only made with humans but of different races as well.

After years of bickering and fighting the people of earth and the races finally made a truce and were able to live in harmony.

If you looked at the kid and dad you can notice there a resemblance except of the kid has pale skin while the father has a darker shade of skin.

As Chang-min's father sets him down at the table he quietly eats without any complaints.

His mother and father are strong players. When the tower came so came mana and the use of magic. Also came the different energies with it Holy energy, Death energy, and even Aura.

His mother is a famous Aura user who can lift mountains and is considered S Rank. While his father is a Healer who can heal even the dead. But their power of course has limitations. Father can only heal someone who died in 24 hours. But a new limitation that made them quit is well me.

As a beautiful woman with noticeable muscles underneath comes out she quickly gives me a glance and smiles. As she walks up to my father she kisses him on the cheek and says "Hey hun"

My mom has deep rose-colored hair alongside blue eyes that look like the ocean. if I had to say where I got my looks from I would say both my mother and my father. I am a combination of the twosome would say.

My mom has a circular face with a square jaw. alongside a pointy nose with plump lips. Her body is not the best but it is fit and she has a smaller build. Her height is 5'8 because of her powers increasing her strength. Her hair is beautiful and deep. Alongside her silky hair that goes down to her back, she usually puts it up in a ponytail.

As she finishes kissing my father she kneels down and kisses me on my cheek and starts to pat my head.

"Hi mom"

"Hi Minny how are you doing"

"Good"

She notices that I'm eating and busy not paying attention and shrugs as she starts to talk to my father.

As I look in the distance it's not that I wasn't paying attention to her I was simply looking at the screen in front of me.

A player always has a status screen. No one who hasn't entered the tower will have it. So why do I have one?
