A rhythm collision sound of sea waves and rock flowing to a woman ears. She's sitting in a long chair near a pier waiting for her ship to come, it's more than one hour, she knew that a sailor isn't the punctual type but it is too long.
Fortunately, she is a cultivator and uses her time meditating to strengthen her body. She waiting and waiting until finally a streak of light from the dawn illuminating where she sits. She opens her eyes and sees someone who isn't there earlier. A girl sitting in a wheelchair bask in the sunlight that making her white hair shimmer. There nobody around her as far as she sees and makes the situation eerier.
However, she doesn't feel afraid, inside her body appears a mysterious feeling that pulling her to walk closer towards that girl, her steps are slow but she still approaching her. After close enough, she can see that girl closing her eyes.
"Hello, my name is Diara. Are you alone here?"
After hearing her voice, that girl visibly a little shocked and wary with her presence. Diara continues talking with a slight smile, "It's okay, I'm not a bad guy. I'm here because waiting for my ship which still not coming yet."
That girl facing her just for a few moments, but in that few moments, Diara feels chilly coming inside her body, it feels like her soul has been read by the girl in front of her. However, soon enough that feeling disappears without a trace.
"I'm sorry for my rudeness, my name is Venicia. As you can see, I am blind, so please forgive my wariness to you earlier."
Her voice is smooth and gentle, like a silk in Diara's ears. She enthralled with Venicia's voice -- it's the most melodic sound she ever heard, but that doesn't last long and she starts to engage conversation heartily with that girl.

Venicia apparently doesn't look like her first impression -- mysterious and reserved. After a while, both of them start telling each of their stories with a passion, Venicia is a good listener and she can create a mundane topic seem interesting, just like Diara herself.
"There a big storm in the sea right now, so I think there won't be any ship come here today. If you in a hurry it's better to borrow a flying beast," Venicia says after hearing Diara complain.
"Oh, I didn't expect there will be a storm today. I didn't really like sit on the flying beasts, but it seems there is no choice," Diara says dejectedly while playing with a knife, sculpting apples for them.
"It is, I go to this island with my brother using a ship yesterday, at first the weather is calm and tranquil but without warning, a storm come and wreck our ship into the sea," Venicia telling her story while feeling Diara's figurine and then eat it with a satisfied expression.
"How can you appear here if your ship got wrecked in the middle of the sea," she can't contain her curiosity after hearing Venicia story.
"After our ship got wrecked, my brother swimming here while carrying me," when she says that, the apple has already gone from her hand, she licks her finger and says, "Can you give me another apple?"
"Okay," Diara chuckled and then prepare her knife for sculpting again.
However, before she able swing her knife, a hand appear and grab her arm, "What did you want to do with my sister?" a menacing sound crawling to her ears, making she froze as though get stared by a dragon.
"Brother, she's not a bad person. She just wants to sculpt an apple for me," Venicia says hurriedly, just after hearing her voice, he takes off his grab.

"I'm sorry, I thought you are a bad person when playing with a knife near my sister," he immediately apologizes for his misunderstanding.
A boy with the same white hair as the girl bow his back, apologize to her. 'His height is same as Vysilius' she can't help to think that when looking at the boy with the same age as his son, she remember that this boy just swimming from the sea to here while carrying her sister.
"It's okay, I know you just cherish your family," Diara says with a smile, this boy reminds her with Vysilius somewhat.
"Thank you for understanding. Then if you excuse us, we kinda have something to visit on this island," he says farewell and then pushing Venicia's wheelchair.
"Goodbye Diara," Venicia says while waving to her.
Their meeting is short but it leaves quite an impact on her, it isn't every day she meeting with optimist blind girl. It seems her brother does a good job to take care of her. Without realizing, she let out a little smile.
After a while, she finally felt pain from that boy grabs, but with her ability she can immediately heal it.
"What, it is hurt. Isn't that mean that boy at least in Peak Core Formation level," after saying that she can't help to shudder, there is no record of this level potential before in history.
She's still stronger than him right now, but she probably can't say the same words in a few years later. She doesn't know from what clan that white haired boy is, but one thing for sure, he someday will become one of the world influencers with his strength.
However, soon she put that thought aside and finally walks towards the flying beast rental.
Ven: You can sculpt apples.

The Normal Dungeon Core: Lethe
Just a normal, standard, no extra frills or gills, dungeon core LitRPG novel in a fantastical world. And as usual, a system exists! Prologue: You know all those stories about reincarnation? Where our beloved (or hated) protagonists are transferred to a new world to conquer, defeat the demon lord, rescue the princess. or are made into mythical gems of power with control over Monsters and Men (psst..a dungeon core)? Where they get a cheat-like ability, are special, granted privileges, or have knowledge from another world? Well, I read about them too in my spare time before I came here. At least, I think I did. Now, you might be asking, where is 'here' ? To answer your somewhat specific, yet vague, question my dear audience...I don't know! But what I do know is that...well nothing other than I had a past life...I think... Anyway...You are correct in assuming that I was indeed reincarnated into a dungeon core! But... ..I have no idea who I was. ...I don't seem to have any special powers or skills or cheats. ....And I was specifically told by Mr. S that I am not, and never will be, "special." Now, if you are confused, then I'm doing a great job, because you probably have no idea what I'm talking about, I haven't given you a background story, or taken you through the last few hours of my new existence. We will get to that! I promise! The main reason I am telling you this absurd and completely delusional preface, is to introduce to you the idea that I, as in me, the new dungeon core, am not "special".............. With that out of the way, how about we rewind time a bit to when I...developed my consciousness? Yes? Great! Lets goooooo! ---------
