A little boy was in a dark an cold alleyway

sitting on the dirty cold ground.

I am not gonna wake up in the same place tonight

the curse is going to take me, the boy thought as he stood up.

He got out of the alley way an headed to the streets

(Unlike any of those mc in those web novels, mangas an anime

who receive blessings from a god or goddess none of those

things happen to me, except I had a loving mom but she died

in a car wreck, I was the only child.unlike in my passed life were I had no family at all,

but after my mom died I was taken to an orphanage but I escaped cause

I knew that I was gonna have the curse that was the believe I held on to

An the reason why I escaped is simple actually I don't want to be

a government pet)As the boy was still reflecting right in front of

a tall building, it was a hotel

The boy sighed an said

Here we go I guess

The boy stapped inside the hotel

The hotel was not normal either from just the looks alone

it screamed three words

The windows had a unique design to,the walls were white in colour

and also the marble floor was white to.

At the front desk there is a lady who is doing some stuff on a computer

But after she heard the the door open she stop what she was doing just like

Other receptionist would do.

But what the lady saw was not what he expected

an messed up black hair with dirty clothes

Slum rat the lady muttered under her breath

The lady who pretended not have noticed the boys presence

Started acting like she just noticed his presence with a forced smile she said

The boy having noticed the forced smile he to forced his own on his tired face

Um I am here to visit someone I know

The lady after realizing that the boy had no bad intentions started to get kinda

Oh who are you visiting young man

Lady xin,the boy said plainly

The two locked eyes

In a shakey voice the receptionist added

You mean lady xin.. the awakened

Yep, the boy replied plainly

Okay let me call her then,the lady was but she was curious about the identity of this

boy cause he is visiting the vvip guest at the hotel.

The boy oblivious to lady's thoughts,he to was lost in thought

(When the curse arrived it came with blessings people who manage

to survive round zero get these so called blessings if you are lucky enough to get

a useful ability the rich families or the government will try to recruit you,

but someone like me has no chance of surviving I never finished school,can

you blame me my mom died when I was only six, well schools teach kids

survive in the depraved realm at least the chances of survival are increased

but those with the highest survival rate the kids from rich families they are given

Gifts and pets from the depraved realm well gifts are what you get when you killed

a monster it can be a sword,spear,even armour you name it,and pets are monsters that one manged

to kill and gets a piece of the monster's soul)

Um hey kid what's your name,the lady asked

brought out of his thoughts the boy replied

Barry started to drag his tired body to the elevator an got in the elevator an headed to the highest floor

which being floor thirty

(Well to enter the depraved realm one must go to sleep

actually it's almost like being trap in a dream actually

but if one might die while in the depraved realm

they disappear in the real world and so is their soul.)

The elevator has reached the top floor thirty.

Barry got out of the elevator an headed to certain room
