《Crow》Rules

Ethan didn't know when or how he came back to his cell. He was in a completely dazed state. In his mind scene of Andrew and Eli's death repeatedly appear. He still remembers worried look of Andrew and that lonely smile that Eli gave him.
Just like that sun sets down and rise again. A cry of a bird can be heard from outside. A guard came to Ethan with a hard beard and toss toward Ethan. The guard said nothing and left. Ethan picks up bread and start eating it. His body was really weak at this moment.
After a while that guard came back with another guard and opened the cell. He said coldly to ethane "come with us."
Ethan saw the guard wordlessly and stands up to follow them. After a while they came toward other cell in it was two boys and on a separate cell was the girl that Ethan has seen tomorrow.
After that they came to a brightly lit hall on the first floor. In administrator hall there was a big screen where a ranking was shown. Hall was filled with counters and people were queuing on some counters.
They came to a counter that was relatively free and guard say something to the woman that was sitting there. That woman who looked like in her forties just nodded. Then guard urges Ethan and others to stand in line and wait for their turn.
After a while it was Ethan's turn. The woman behind the counter did not lift her head and said without any emotion in her voice "name, gender and age"
Ethan was a little confused from sudden question, but he answers her "Ethan, male and 10" when Ethan says his age the woman looked a little surprise. When she saw Ethan she sigh 'this lad going to die soon'
After the process, she gives a black ring to Ethan there was an eye on center of the ring. She says "when its aura depleted come here to charge it" and said nothing after that. When Ethan got the ring he was at lost to what to do next.

When guard sees this he sneer and say "you touch the eye part of the ring and it will activate" then guard turned around and leave saying "you can back to the cell or roam around we don't care."
When Ethan saw other three mutually ignore him he just left the hall and go to his cell.
When came back to the cell he sat on ground his back to the wall. He wears the ring on his left hand.
He touched the eye on a ring and a screen pop out in front of him scaring him. He tries to touch the words that are written as instruction. When he touched it another page came. Ethan reads rules briefly.
The rules that he should know were these, He can buy anything as long as he has sufficient point other than freedom. He can challenge any higher position on the ranking board if he defeat the opponent, he get his half of points and if opponent dies all points are his and vice versa.
To earn points other than challenges are hunting beast and selling relics. You can hunt beast solo or made a party none is a matter they only want results.
As for the points they're basically currency here. There is a tier 0 dungeon here, also you can sell the beast part of the dungeon beast because those are used to make relics.
If he comes in any last three places on bronze ranking board, he will be executed in punishment arena. When he read this scene of Eli's death come to his mind.
He became instantly upset. He shook his head and continued reading. There have three ranking boards bronze, silver and gold ranking board. To ascend to silver or gold ranking board you have to kill one beast of their tier 1 and tier 2 respectively alone in test center.
Beast are ranked has tier 0-5 higher the tier more powerful the beast after that there came a command tier beast that rule over beast they also numbered from 0-5. The bronze skin monkey was a zero tier monster.

And you will be staying here for age 18 and after that they did not mention what will they do. Ethan thought that they will let them enter in their guild because it's a camp for grooming the candidates for the guild.
The ranking board refreshes every month. Points become zero on it. But previous point can still use as currency.
Ethan exit page of instruction and go to shop page he wants to know the price of things and also want to see what they sell. When he skimmed through it, he was utterly shocked you can really buy anything as long as you have sufficient points. There was long variety of thinks like weapon, armor, relics you can even buy a cell or decorate it. 'This is absurd' he thought. Who want to be stay at this place, but the people he saw when he went out they were willing to stay here.
Although you can buy anything but price for items was also very high 100 points for only a simple sword. Points for killing beast are 10, 100 and 500 for tier 0-1-2 respectively. There is no tier 4 or 5 beast here. An unawakened can only fight with tier 0 beasts.
Ethan was at lost he has only 10 points in total. He skimmed through and found a beginner weapon that was free. Its description says that beginner can get any weapon they want for first time. When he saw this, his eyes lit up the most important thing that he wants right now was to get a weapon.
After browsing for a while he switches off and starts to plan his future. His first step should be to get out this place that was not possible for now so he didn't bother to think a way to escape. In his heart he wanted to powerful so he can protect the people that are important to him. He was clear that it will not be easy feast. Fastest way to become is to get experience from real fighting with beasts or with someone.
For later other party have to accept his challenge first and he has no confidence that he able to win. As for the former it was fierce beast that will not show any mercy and kill him.
After pondering for a while he thought the hunting beast is best choice for now. Because he doesn't have much points on him to challenge someone. The stalk on match must be equal and Ethan got nothing. And second sometime human can be more brutal than any other beast. As if he dies in the process, he will have no regret at all. At least he died while trying.
After making his decision, Ethan directly came to administrator hall. He goes to the information counter to find where he can get his beginner weapon.
After getting his short sword, he purchased a bag and sack of water for 5 points a map for 2 points and some bandages for remaining 3 points. After he finished his shopping he came back to his cell.
He examines his things. The short sword was a little dull and was a rusted from the side. Ethan couldn't help but sigh 'it's true that you cannot get any good thing for free'. He has to get a better sword if he wants to survive. But for now he has to use it.
As for the map it was stored in his ring. He also wants to get the map of whole place, but it was an astounding price of 5000 points. So he has to give up on it for now. Other than training Andrew also taught them how to read and write and he also taught Ethan how to read a map.
Now he was ready to start his first hunt. He was waiting for sun to rise so he can go out and start his training to become powerful.

Fascinated by the strength of her will and soul, and fond of her humble and accepting character, the Goddess offered Shizuka to be her Champion which Shizuka accepted. A month passed after the arrival of the Heroes and a plus one at Evarenan, the real trials and nightmares of this world had only just begun for our offworlders, especially Shizuka.
