Long ago, 100 years before the Golden Age of the Wielder, there were monstrous creatures known as Devourers suddenly appeared at the Land of Andromeda
These Devourers are typically humanoid creatures that possess the ability to drain and suck the blood of a living creatures including humans
Unlike other living creatures, Devourers possess a horrific ability to gain strength and speed every time they drain someone blood,
It's unique ability, "Drain" can suck out of the blood and will receive enough strength to the body, In rare cases, it can copy desired skills and magic spells based on the knowledge that was stored in their minds
Basically, the more blood that was drained and stored in the body, the stronger and more powerful it becomes
It's origins were unknown yet they possess a huge threat in humans, Unlike magic beasts such as Goblins, Centaurs and Dwarfs that roams the land of Andromeda, Devourers were different from the ordinary
They were a peak-level threat as it can kill multiple armies with only just handling a singular ability,
Early humans saw this as a huge threat because of its dangerous and horrific environment, Because of that, they immediately comes up in a solution
They immediately deployed Wielders, these are humans that gain supernatural powers such as strength, speed and even magic,
They were chosen by the gods of the middle-world, By performing a specialized ritual that only affects when humans turned by the age of 18
These chosen humans use their powers to defeat magic beasts and other monstrous creatures including Devourers
Because of the rise of Wielders, the population of Devourers began to drop rapidly until they faced a massive extinction
Until now, Devourers were extinct and there were no signs of previous attacks and casualties, But other magic beasts still roam the land of Andromeda
To this day, the Wielders managed to protect their people from these magic beasts, to prevent any more casualties and prevent disasters

Yet, in this world, I was more just a loser, no talents, no magic, all of this is just useless,
Not only that, after I completed a ritual from becoming a wielder, I was met an undesirable fate, I didn't became a wielder, instead the ritual gave me a useless skill,
" Inspect"
Also, the ritual will give enough power to become a wielder, and since the ritual gave me a trashiest skill known to man, I wasn't qualified as a wielder,
The ritual is mostly depends on luck, Sometimes you will get lucky, such as obtaining a powerful skill that is qualified to become a wielder, or sometimes not.
And since I am unlucky, the ritual gave me the worst skill, " Inspect",
This skill is simple to understand, it can reveal the current stats of any person and the best part is it can apply to yourself... It can reveal stats such as health, strength and more, Hence the name Inspect
For me, it was just an inspection skill, no required mana and can access it anytime, but when I tried this skill to myself, I was shocked from my discovery
Elias Rynd, 18 years old
Skill: Inspect
Vitality: 100
Strength: 8
Defense: 14
Agility: 11
Mana:0
Sucks to be that I was a weak and simple minded boy, and yet I lived a normal life in Allure village, I was running a family meat shop,
My payment were stable at first but people wanted to buy meat from my meat shop, So my family named it "Rynd Meat Shop" with a iconic discount that was placed in the sign
My family business was successful, my sister, Eirene Rynd, is a cashier at this point, handling all the payment and expenses that the store provides
Meanwhile, I will handle all the dirty jobs such as butchering, import and export of animals and in easy terms cutting parts of meat that is edible and ready to sell
Apart from that, I was a family butcher, I always carry my butcher knife at all times, inside and outside the household, it seems weird at first but my specialty from being a butcher surprises me
Also our family store always strict in our schedule, five in the morning was our opening time and five in the afternoon is our closing time, making it a 12 hour service
Currently, it is 12 in the noon, from this period of time, more people will buy from our meat shop, our meat is ready to sell, my sister will in charge from selling meat parts while I am butchering dead animals across the room,
While I was cutting a dead cow, I heard a customer yelling at my sister... Knowing what is going on, I slowly dropped my butcher knife in the table covered in blood and immediately went to my sister
" Hey miss, is your brother Elias Rynd?, that dumb brat that got the trashiest skill after the ritual"
Then I arrived just in time, my clothes were tainted by blood... And my apron is a bloody mess, I was shocked because these guys that was talking from my sister was no ordinary customer, but wielders came here just to mock me
The wielders were Parrot and Ram, thet saw my ritual yesterday, and yet they came to mock me my obtaining the skill called " Inspect"
Among the wielders, Parrot was mean and shows disrespect to me, He is a slim or much like a pale skin bullshit that bullies the weak, Meanwhile, Ram was a dominant one, a muscular kind that bullied me since childhood,
They knew about the ritual... They came to my shop and began to mock me, While both of them were qualified as wielders... While me was acquired a worst skill known to man
" Hey dumasses, why both of you came to my shop?, Both of you gonna make me fun from me again?" Elias said in frustration
The both of them showed a joyous expression, Much like they mocking me from my skill... Then, Parrot handed me a newspaper that shows a horrifying news
In the newspaper, A wanted fugitive known as Troy Egg escaped through the dungeon, and is currently roaming at the streets in Allure Village,
Troy egg is a wielder that committed mass murder in Caria City, he is reported as killing weak people's that are defenseless and possess the worthless skills, he was branded as a wanted criminal by the Government and placed his face in a bounty
After reading the newspaper, The wielders, Parrot immediately spoke up to Elias, visually mocking him once again,
" Elias, have you seen that, a wanted criminal that was in Allure Village.. Even worse, he targets weak people like you"
" That is accurately true Elias, because of your worthless skill, you cant even last a minute on that man... Even worse, you won't last long by making you a meat shield"
After the wielders warns about a escaped fugitive, they both laughed at Elias weak environment and immediately left the meat shop
After the wielders left the scene, Eirene witness the whole scene, and began informing Elias about its actions
"Hey little bro, who are those guys?, Would you let them mock you!, Don't just stand in their way and learn to fight!!"
Then, Elias lend out a calming voice
" Sorry Eirene, but these guys are too powerful, they are wielders.... I used my inspect skill on them and I will tell the results"
Little that Eirene know that Elias used his skill "Inspect" to reveal the stats of the wielders that was making fun of, He explained the strength that the wielders possess
Parrot Great 20 years old
Skill: Flaming Arrow
Vitality:560
Strength:126
Defense:88
Agility:75
Mana:100
Ram Mart 19 years old
Skill: Immobilized
Vitality:400
Strength:102
Defense:56
Mana:200
These wielders that were mocked me previously were unbearably strong and strength that was stored in their body...Not only that, their skills tell a different meaning, they are used in real combat, unlike my skill that only reveals stats from other people, making my power useless in combat
After that, Eirene understood this situation and immediately said in anger
" Ugh... These guys won't learn about manners, if I use my mana manipulation correctly, I will surely teach them a lesson
Also, Eirene is one year older than me, calling her "Big Sister" is the one thing that shows her connection to mine,
I previously used inspect skill on my big sister and saw were made him surprised
Eirene Rynd 19 years old
Skill: Mana manipulation
Vitality:100
Strength: 20
Defense:10
Agility:10
Mana:300
Then when I used my inspect skill once again, I dug deeper knowing Eirene skill work... And sure enough, the skill gave me results
Mana manipulation- this skill can manipulate and control mana inside the person body, it can drain mana and weaken the person immune system
For me, this skill is overpowered because unlike my skill, Eirene can manipulate mana inside the body, it can easily kill a person using this skill
And since Eirene can't control her mana properly, she wouldn't able to use this skill properly, even In all means.... Because of that, she is not qualified as an wielder
After that, Eirene understood about the wielders strong environment, so she shook her head up and immediately scolded Elias
" Oh.. Worse to hear that, anyway... Focus on your goal Elias, butcher the remaining animals in the counter, I will hold these guys later"
Upon hearing this, Elias understood his sister words and immediately forgets the wielders that mocked him... He immediately went back to work
***
After Parrot and Ram left the meat shop that Elias lives, they immediately both went to the alleyway from Allure village.. There a calming voice that was heared in the dark alleyway
" Hey kids, did you find the boy?, The one with the worthless skill"
Then the two Wielders immediately responded by a unknown guy
" Yes Master, He is Elias Rynd, his skill is " Inspect", he is currently lives in the Southern District of Allure village, "Rynd Meat Shop" is thier property"
" Their only relatives of this household are his sister, his parents both died and two of them currently lives there"
Then, a grinned smile the unknown guy makes, it seems that he is happy about hearing the boy deeds
"Elias Rynd eh?, What a fascinating name despite having a useless skill"
Then the unknown guy reveals himself as the wanted fugitive known as Troy Egg, the serial killer that kills weak people's.. Their main target is Elias... A weaker man that Troy manifested with,
Parrot and Ram were Troy subordinates, they will kill Elias due to its weak environment.. Then Troy immediately raises it voice in agony
" Okay boys, tonight we will raid the Rynd household and kill that boy
