After training, Silver slept on his bed. This time, he doesn't need to go through the window which is pretty normal for him.

The bed was so soft, though not very soft as others' beds. He fell asleep quickly as he was really tired.

----- Sweet Dreams -----

2 years and 8 months ago...

A young man with silver hair, crimson eyes, and wearing a brown leather vest over a white long sleeve. This 13-year-old boy was none other than Silver Cranel.

He was working in a bakery, trying both to learn and earn. He was also helping Jack from time to time if he ever needed a helping hand.

Right now, Silver can be considered as a child of a familia. Why? Because two weeks ago, Silver wanted to get strong even before going to Orario so he decided to talk to his Gramps, Zeus.

"Hey, Gramps! Are you a God?" Silver asked solemnly.

"Why did you think that I am a God?" Zeus asked with a smile.

"Actually, I am a reincarnated human which I still have my past memories of what happened 30 years ago. I didn't know how I still have my memories but all I know is that I believe these past memories. In my past memories, I've seen your face and I even know your name. You are a god that founded the strongest familia, the Zeus Familia." half of what he said was a lie. Okay, maybe more than half.

"I see... So there is a single soul that wasn't purified, eh? I wonder what happened to your soul afterward." Zeus wondered how did it happen.

"Enough of that. I want to become strong, I want to explore the world." Silver said with determination.

"Alright, alright. But don't you want to become a hero?" Zeus asked Silver solemnly.

"Hero, huh? A hero is a kind-hearted person and who saves people in dire need, always paying his debts no matter what, someone who likes to work very hard to earn everything he wants himself. Yep, I'm kind of that person so it's not possible for me to become one." he said with a poker face.

"Aren't you forgetting something, son?" Zeus winked at Silver, thinking he knew what he was talking about.

Of course, Silver knew what that "wink" is all about.

"Are talking about picking up girls in a dungeon?" Silver finally asked after a few seconds of silence.

Zeus nodded twice.

"Now, then. We should start now. It'll hurt a little bit since it will be your first. Come with me to my room."

Silver nodded and followed his Gramps to his room.

Zeus prepared a needle and a paper.

"Come and lie down on this bed." Zeus said while tidying the things over his bed.

Silver lied down. With his back facing upwards, Zeus started to prick his finger using a needle and let a drop of his blood fall on Silver's back.

Silver felt a little pain since it was his first time receiving a falna. After all, he reincarnated and wanted to be on top of this world as an Adventurer.

After half a minute or so, Zeus was finished. He places a paper on Silver's back and printed his stats on it.

When Silver looked at his Gramps, all he could see were smile, smile and err... a smile.

"Hahaha, you will be a great hero someday, Silver!" Zeus said as he showed Silver his status on the paper.

"Now I know why you are so happy about it. But I'm still far from becoming a great hero, you know." Silver said, stopping Zeus from laughing.

"Silver, it may be too small but that's enough to defeat monsters from the 3rd to 5th floor of the dungeon in Orario." Zeus said and continued to lecture him that it doesn't matter how weak he is to others he can always work harder to become stronger.

After that day, Silver started his training with weighted clothes that made him look like fat. His work at the farm also got intensified since it is also part of his training.

Sometimes, Zeus ordered him to carry their crops every time they have a customer who ordered lots of them. Some of them ordered tomatoes, some potatoes, some pineapples, some other crops which are heavy when they are many.

Silver was able to withstand the heavy work, however, his training will only get harder and harder.

One day, Zeus has something to tell to Silver.

"Kid, have you prepared all the things you needed?" Zeus asked.

"Yup, but why do I need to bring a bow and arrow, a knife, and a 50-meter rope with me?" Silver asked as these were the things he was ordered to bring.

"All you need to do is to go to another town, and while on your way, you have to kill monsters. Also, let's add some weight on your bag with rocks." Zeus said as he picked up rocks that are heavy and put it inside the bag.

Silver felt that the rocks are not so ordinary so he asked what type of rock it is.

"They are copper ores and iron ores, they will be weighing you down on your way." Zeus said and coughed, signaling a change of subject, "Anyway, your mission will be going to the next village nearby, though it was a few kilometers away, you can reach it, if not then you have died of exhaustion." he said seriously.

Silver sighed.

"Oh, wait!" Zeus suddenly remembered something.

Zeus rushed to his room and picked up 3 water bottles that were 1 liter each. He gave it to Silver and Silver put it in his bag.

His bag was like Lili's backpack but smaller, enough to carry lots of things.

"Bye, Gramps!" Silver said with a smile.

Zeus replied with a smile in return.

"That kid, he sure got strong in just 2 months." He said while looking at a paper.

"I can't believe he obtained Development Ability without even leveling up... Anyway, I still have some things to do. Silver will surely be back after three days or so." Zeus muttered as he folded the paper and hid it in his drawer.

----- Good Morning -----

Silver woke up.

"Gosh, why did I dream about that hellish training?" Silver asked himself but he had no reason to question himself since it's already 2 years since he escaped that training.

Silver looked at the time, he was shocked. He was late, it was already 7:45 AM in the morning for his job at the Hostess of Fertility, he was a cook there now and a helper. He can be considered Jack-of-all-trades.

He quickly took a bath and hastened so he can go now or else he would be scolded by Mama Mia for being late. He's late for almost an hour.

After taking a bath, he decided to wear casual clothes from the system. He wore a black long sleeve shirt and very comfy pants.

He then rushed to the Hostess of Fertility while doing "Naruto Run" on his way along with his Zero-Shift. He didn't change his boots so he can use its special ability, Zero-Shift.

On his way, people didn't know what was that purple light was but they got back to their own business quickly.

"Sorry for being late!" Silver said as he arrived at the tavern.
