《The Rise Of A Porter 》Chapter 7: First Mission (1)
Advertisement
Alice was waiting for Arnold outside John's office. She was wondering whether her dad was able to make him stay or not, she was about to peep inside when the doors leading to her father's office, opened up and both of them walked out.
Arnold couldn't look happier, just as he was about to leave he saw Alice and went ahead and told her about the good news, even she was happy for him as she knew about the hardships he had endured for the sake of his sister and from the money he'll get now, Nicole's treatment would be more effective. Just as they were happily chatting, the guild communicator on their wrist started vibrating, indicating there was a notification. They both looked at the communicator, they were urgently called for a dungeon mission. No details were given, they were simply asked to report near the guild's entrance.
"Emergency mission?" Arnold looked at Alice, hoping that she'd know something about it.
"I don't know. But it should be something like that." She replied as they both rushed to the gate.
When they reached near the gate, everyone else including the guild manager James, was already present there. Everyone was already wearing their gears, but no one paid any attention to Arnold, he was an outcast after all.
Seeing that every one of the 12 man team was already there, James started speaking.
"A blue dungeon gate has appeared near the Everglades. Since it comes within our territory, the mayor has requested us to kill every monster in there, the detailed report has been sent to your communicators, you can refer to it if you want more information about it." He said sternly and looked at Arnold, "Since it is a new experience for you and we don't have a spare porter right now, you'll continue as a porter and only observe for today."
Of course, the guild had spare porters but Arnold knew it very well that the guild master was forcing him to do the job so that he could humiliate him and make the others feel better by making him feel helpless. Everyone was laughing at him right now, especially EL and Miguel.

"You just need someone to carry it right?" Arnold asked James.
"Well that's what a porter does," he replied smirking like the others. Even if the vice president had appointed Arnold as a warrior, they would never treat him like one.
"Great then!" Arnold smiled.
Everyone was confused at Arnold's behaviour before they saw the creature standing behind him. It was a frost golem.
"If carrying the bag is the only thing to do then he is perfect for the job," Arnold said patting the golem on his back, no was smirking anymore. Arnold successfully outplayed everyone else. He ordered to golem to take care of the bag and the items. Everyone got into the vehicles provided by the guild and headed towards the Everglades national park. Arnold was about to enter the park when a thought hit him. He hadn't picked a class yet. He quickly opened the [rewards] tab, and after pondering for a while he decided to pick [COSMIC CREATIONIST] class as it had the most useful abilities like foresight and weapon creation.

"It's a shame I don't have any gear to use the [ENHANCEMENT] spell on..." He looked back and saw the golem taking out the bags and carrying the necessities. Arnold had an idea, he walked back towards the golem, placed his hands in its chest.

His guess was right! He could enhance the golems as well. He used the skill for the first time and the buff received by the golem was already overpowered. Even though Arnold pretty much knew that with his current level, the enhancement wouldn't be a permanent one, seeing the stats of the golem made him crave for more.
Golem had changed physically as well. He was taller and bulkier than before. But the most noticeable change was his two additional arms. Everyone who saw this only had one thing in their minds, "Who the hell is Arnold!?" Not only did he had ice and earth affinity, but he could also use support spells. The person who was shocked the most was Miguel, after losing the fight, the only closure he had was thinking that at least he was able to push Arnold to give it all he had, but seeing him using support spells took away the little bit of closure he had.
As he was staring at Arnold, Arnold was staring back at him too, Miguel suddenly felt uncomfortable and quickly averted his gaze. Little did he know Arnold was using his [PROBE] skill on him. After using the skill, a system message was shown in front of him.

"We will now enter the dungeon! Make sure your gear is in proper condition and that you're prepared both mentally and physically. This is just a blue dungeon, meaning most of the monsters inside, except the dungeon boss will be of rank C at most thus dealing with them won't be a problem." Ricardo, the party leader roared at the top of his lungs, everyone nodded and checked their gears once again. after checking his gear Ricardo walked towards Arnold. "Here take this, it's a video device which sends the video feed to the guild's server. And good luck for your first dungeon trip as a warrior."
"Thanks." Arnold took the small button like device and pinned it on his chest. As Ricardo had explained, this device was used to record an individual's POV (Point Of View) inside the dungeon, this is how if a guild's member discovers something, the guild would immediately inform the media houses about its discovery. Only warriors were given the device as it was quite expensive and who would want to see a porter's POV anyway.
After setting up everything they entered the dungeon.

The Children of the Divine Limit
A realistic, psychological isekai: What pushes people to rejoice, to torture, to sacrifice, to kill? What gives some the will to survive and thrive in a new land and others the craving for dominance and exploitation? What would those who grew up without power all their lives do when given the approval and blessings of God Himself? How far will someone go to protect those close to them? How far will someone go to exact vengeance against an unjust world? How far can someone go before the abyss looks back at them? "Everything in the world is about sex — except sex. Sex is about power." - Oscar Wilde “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.” - Abraham Lincoln Greed is the worst of all the deadly sins; all of human history lays out the evidence to support this thesis. Consider all of the above before reading this story: A 12th-grade high school class is sent to another world; a world of sword and magic called Omicron where other-worlders are revered as heroes given the divine blessing of the Lord God Sapiora, creator of Omicron's human race. It is currently a world at war. The humans of Omicron need these divine heroes as weapons against the Demon Emperor and the demihuman forces of the evil god Azazelin. However, two students within the class, Ajax Leonid and Shaula Seikennith, haven't been given the hero's blessing. They've been given something else, something more curious; the blood of a deity who noticed their specialness. As a result, after escaping the clutches of their summoners who tried to kill them for their lack of heroic potential, Ajax and Shaula enter the new world of Omicron with no one on their side except each other. While wading through rivers of blood, Ajax and Shaula seek a stable life, a life where they can salvage happiness. They have each other above all else. Perhaps the cost will be worth it. Perhaps not.
