The sun was setting over the small village of Willowdale, casting a warm orange glow over the thatched roofs. The air was filled with the smell of cooking fires and the sound of villagers preparing for the night ahead. In a small, cramped room at the edge of the village, a young adventurer named Phosorius Magnum sat on his bed, staring at the notification in front of him.
System Message:Welcome, Phosorius Magnum. You have been registered in the Adventurer's System.
Current Rank: E ( lowest rank)
Experience Points: 0/10000 (required to reach D- rank)
Phosorius sighed, feeling the weight of his weakness. As an E-Rank adventurer, he was barely scraping by. He had no skills, no strength, and no experience. The system message seemed like a cruel joke.Suddenly, a notification flashed:
Monster Spawn Alert:Weak Slime (Level 1)Location: 500 meters east of Willowdale
Phosorious hesitated, unsure if he was ready to face even a weak slime. But he knew he had to start somewhere. He grabbed his rusty sword and set off towards the slime's location.The battle was a struggle. Phosorius stumbled and tripped, his sword swinging wildly. The slime oozed and stretched, its gooey tendrils wrapping around Phosorius's ankles. With a surge of adrenaline, Phosorius managed to land a few hits, but the slime's HP barely dropped.After what felt like an eternity, the slime dissolved into a puddle of goo. Phosorius collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Experience Points: 15/10000
Rank: E (no change)
Phosorius groaned, feeling the insignificance of his progress. He would need to defeat hundreds, maybe thousands, of monsters to reach the next rank. The thought was daunting, but he refused to give up. He would keep fighting, no matter how weak he was.As the sun dipped below the horizon, Phosorius returned to his room, his body aching from the battle. He knew his journey to SSS Rank would be long and arduous, but he was determined to take the first step.
Current Status:

The darkness outside seemed to press in around him, but Phosorius steeled himself for the challenge ahead. He would face his fears, one monster at a time.
