My King System

"I see, that's an impressive achievement. You're so much better than everyone else. The only problem I see is that I still don't understand what you being a level 3 player has to do with this job. Please just give me a task instead of going on about irrelevant stuff," said Yuki which made Avila more angry. 

"How dare you-" said Avila as she almost slapped Yuki. Seeing as she was a level 3 player while Yuki had the strength of a level 1 player, Yuki was prepared to call on One the moment before she landed her attack. 

"Sorry, I almost lost control. For your first task, go and organize those cement blocks over there," said Avila as he pointed towards large quantities of cement blocks which were all in stacks but in different areas which made Yuki assume that she wanted them all stacked in one single area. 

"Got it. Thanks," said Yuki as began to walk towards the first stack of blocks and take a single cement block at a time and began to create a large stack of them on his own.

While he was doing that, Avila began to leap off and on the ruble from the kingdom wall which was broken off as she headed towards a table where Garth and a couple others were discussing something together. While Yuki found it odd that they were having a meeting of sorts, he didn't get bothered by it as all he cared about was finding a way to make the day go faster so he wouldn't die of boredom until it was night time. Once night came, he could go back to the dungeon which was paradise for him as he enjoyed the thrill of winning. 

Once Yuki finished disassembling the first stack of cement blocks, he moved on to the next stack and began to bring each of the cement blocks from there to the large stack he had made where he could put together all of the blocks from the other stacks. 

There were a lot of construction machines all around the area which the group was working such as a concrete mixer, an excavator, a backhoe loader, a bulldozer and many other machines. 

Even though there were only a small number of workers compared to the task which needed to be done, it looked like they were used to working in tough conditions. Although the task looked to be grueling and seemed like it would take at the bare minimum a whole year to complete, Yuki didn't mind at all. Of course, this wasn't because he enjoyed the feelings of having companions. It didn't matter if he worked alone for the whole year. The longer he could create the facade that he was getting integrated into the kingdom's society, the better. In case there was someone who was keeping a watch on him, Yuki wanted to make sure that not a single person found out that he was sneaking outside the kingdom at night to gain power. 

The reason for this was that even if by some miracle, Yuki managed to permanently escape as he was now, he would just get caught once again. However, even then, if another miracle were to happen and he were allowed to escape without getting caught, his captures would start to raid dungeons at a faster rate as well because they wouldn't want Yuki to be more powerful than them.

As long as the people who had captured Yuki stayed arrogant, it would allow Yuki to eventually surpass them in strength. Once that happened, Yuki could leave the kingdom and raid dungeons full time and no matter how many people are sent to raid dungeons after that, Yuki will always be stronger than them. Unlike most people in the world, Yuki didn't have anything other than dungeon raiding. What he thought he had was family in the form of Marcell and Elpis but due to what he had done in the past, that was all gone now. All that was left for Yuki was to go inside the dungeons and gain strength so he could rule the world. Yuki didn't even know what he specifically wanted to do after he reached level 100. All he knew was that he needed to be the first person to reach level 100. 

...

Elsewhere in the world, a slim but muscular man with his shirt off while wearing blue jeans exited a dungeon along with a couple others behind him. 

"How is everyone doing?" the tall man asked. 

"Fine"

"Not bad"

"Could be worse"

While the answers weren't bad, they weren't good either. From the looks of it, it seemed like they were forced to leave the dungeon which meant that they couldn't clear the dungeon. 

"Okay, let's rest for 3 days then we can retry it. Apparently, this is where most people have stopped leveling up. However, there's a rumour that you gain a special type of power when you clear either this dungeon or the ones with closely following it. That's why we can't give up now. We have to continue going," the tall man said. 

"Well said captain Jing," one of the tall man's allies said behind him. 

"We'll stick together until we become the strongest force this world has seen!" the others replied. 

"It won't be long before I'll be confident enough to face you, Scar. I'll make sure to repay you for all you've done for me with my fists. However, I won't be as arrogant as I was previously. I'll make sure I'm a higher level than you before I attack you. Just to make sure though, I'll bring my friends along with me. Together, we'll crush you to the point where you can't get up any more," Jing thought to himself as he along with his comrades began to head towards a nearby kingdom to rest for a few days. 

"It's been about a year. Looking back at it now, I've changed from what I used to be. I don't need to run away anymore. I can face all my challenges head on. All I have to thank for this new found power and resolve is you, Yuki. You indirectly help me find peace with myself. I'm genuinely happy for the first time and I can even reject the requests of others without feeling guilty. I will no longer be used like an object!" Jing thought to himself. 

... 

Somewhere else in the world, a man in a cloak continued to walk through a dark forest with an emptiness in his eyes. He looked to be searching for something but couldn't find it for some reason.

From the shadows, a group of goblins surrounded the cloaked man as he looked at him with eyes of hunger and bloodlust. 

"Hello there, can I help you?" the cloaked man asked. 

The goblins couldn't help but make sounds which no human could understand as they didn't have the ability to communicate with humans. Seeing as the human didn't understand them, all of the goblins leaped at the cloaked man with their fangs facing forward as they attempted to eat him without mercy. 

"That's unfortunate," the cloaked man said as he raised his palm forward. 

"Activate ability: Ice Control"

"Recreate"

The moment a single goblin made contact with the cloaked man's finger, everything within the forwards became engulfed in ice. The ice had taken control over each object and living thing as it turned them into a sculpture. 

"I hate using my ability for such small matters. Good thing I managed to not kill them. They'll continue to live but won't be let out of the ice cages until it melts which should be in about 2 weeks. They only have themselves to blame for this. They should've sensed my power but they decided to ignore that and attack. Well, I better get going," the cloaked man said as he walked through the now changed ice forest. 

"Where is that dungeon gate?! I've found so many other gates except the one I'm looking for. Does the number of dungeon gates decrease as the dungeon's power increases?" the man asked himself as he continued to walk. 

"Well, it doesn't matter. I'm a bit disappointed at the news though. I can't believe that Yuki Kaito was captured. Well, it's not like it's going to change anything. That kid has been captured before. What makes them think he won't escape just like he did previously," the cloaked man continued to speak to himself. 

"Surprise me Yuki. I want to be the one to take you don't. I won't be allowing you to simply rot away in the stupid kingdom jail thing. I'll come and rescue you myself if you can't escape on your own with the next year. I doubt I'll need to though. I wouldn't be stupid enough to believe the man who was going to become the largest threat in the entire world was captured by a group of dogs which they control. If you're going to escape from that place, do the entire world a favour and burn all of them," said Scar as he continued on his journey to find the next dungeon he would enter.
