Dinner was kinda weird, but I don\'t have much time to think about it as I have things to do tonight.

\' Today\'s the day, I break free from my trash potential.\'

My thoughts get disrupted as the light in the dorm goes out and all the children are left in the darkness. Now all I had to do was wait.

One hour passes, then two hours, three hours, and finally four hours.

I look at the digital clock on the wall of the dorm and see that the time was exactly 2:00 p.m.

I slowly get up from my bed and cloak myself with mana erasing my presence. The only reason why none of the children didn\'t wake up was since none of them had awakened to mana yet. Some did but they were not proficient enough in the use of mana to detect my presence.

Peasants.

I go outside the dorm and enter the main hallway of the orphanage, the spare key to the front door was kept under a mat. I take it without making a sound and open the door and go outside as gently as possible.

The cold wind of night hits my face and I shudder slightly, the always crowded streets were empty and dark. A street light that seemed to be malfunctioning kept lighting itself and then would go off yet again. Everything looked eerie.

Uhhgggg

I hate the dark.

I take out the small flashlight in my pockets and on it and walk down the streets. The orphanage was located in the capital city of the Human Empire, \'Lycan\'. Due to the war between humans and demons, millions lost their lives and many people had to run away from their homes and countries. Humanity was on its last toes when the angels came and erected the barriers around the places where humans were most densely populated, humans and angels were allowed to go in and out of the barrier freely. The only beings restricted from entering were the beings belonging to the demonic race. Erecting barriers was not the only thing that the angels did to \'help\' people, they also choose an emperor from among the humans to lead all of humanity. The current emperor was also the no.1 hero as well.

The Human Empire was given the name, \' Elda\' by the angels, they said that it meant \'wise\' in their language.

Ironic, isn\'t it?

Anyways, the orphanage was built in Lycan, the capital city of the human empire. Right now I was heading to the outskirts of the city. I kept running even though I was getting quite tired because I was tight on time. After scaling the city wall and crossing the city wall, I finally see it.

Baryon Mountain, its name was derived from the Earth hero, Baryon who was currently no.3 in the rankings. It was given this name because he had cut the mountain in half. Literally.

Baryon was fighting against a strong villain and the poor mountain got cut in half as a result of their fight. Before it was sliced in half it was one of the biggest mountains in the human territory, you would think that Baryon would get punished for this kinda shit but instead, he got praised!

That\'s the good thing about the hero business, they don\'t care if you\'re a battle maniac who causes unnecessary damage to nature, all the people cared about were the results.

Villains were just people who did stuff that was prohibited by the empire, like murder and stuff.

I gaze at the Baryon Mountain and feel unease in my mind,

I\'m going to do something incredibly reckless, but if I succeed the reward would be something amazing. I walk around the mountain in circles, it should be around here somewhere--

\'\' Aha\'\', I yell out as I find what I\'m searching for,

If a normal person looked at the view in front of me, they would say that it was just another part of the mountain, but I\'m not a normal person, am I?

I\'m the all-knowing author.

Let me elaborate. In my novel, there was a character that I introduced around the middle stages of the novel. The most unique thing about this character was the fact that her name was not specified throughout the entirety of the novel, she was just known as,\' The Messiah.\'

She was what you call a minor boss nowadays, The small evil you face before the bigger evil. Her story starts with her trying to kill herself. Now that I think about it both our stories start the same way. The reason why she tries to kill herself was never mentioned because I wanted to make her even more mysterious. The only thing mentioned in the novel about her appearance was that she had blonde hair.

Anyways, she comes here to off herself and accidentally discovers a portal. A portal was something that started appearing on the Earth with the emergence of mana. As mana became integrated into our ecosystem, the portals were born as side effects or so the studies mentioned.

Inside the portal, was a \'dungeon\', and the main idea behind it was complete a specific task, like kill a monster or something. Once you complete your task successfully, you get rewarded with \'artifacts\'.

Artifacts were items that enhanced the user in some way when he or she used them.

Pretty standard stuff right?

Anyways the dungeons in the portals usually give out a physical task, but the one The Messiah found was unique. All it did was show your worst trauma, and you just had to stay sane.

Simple, right.

Not exactly, it was a task that was made to fail. The illusion they showed us was created by creatures called,\' Death Wisps\'. They don\'t attack you directly, instead, they make you see illusions while slowly injecting their secretions into your body.

It\'s not like that, you pervert.

These secretions called, \' Fearko\' made its victims go slowly insane. The Messiah becomes insane due to this and commits lotta atrocities later on. It reaches to point where our edgy MC kills her even though he practiced a strict \'no kill\' policy. She was just that crazy. After closing this portal and getting her reward, she goes and enacts her revenge on those who wronged her and thus begins her story.

After getting the reward from this one, she goes on to collect more artifacts and becomes stronger and stronger. The surprising thing about her was that she was just an E rank. The reason this was surprising was that she would get into fights with S ranks and came out the victor. The reason why she won was simple, the craziness worked in her favor. It completely erased her fear of death while maximizing her blood lust.

Plus the shit ton of superb artifacts that she owned also kinda helped her.

I look at the rocky crust of the mountain, specifically the reason why I knew the portal was hidden here. When The Messiah found the portal, she found that a rose was embedded on the wall of the mountain, due to her habit of plucking flowers and smelling them, she naturally does this now, as well as accidentally activating opening the portal.

Another reason why this portal was unique was since, unlike usual portals which revealed themselves, this particular one chose to hide itself and the rose was the key that unlocked the portal, and in front of me was that very rose. I pull on it gingerly and the rocky crust of the mountain crumbles and a portal was revealed.

It was blue like all portals. But before I enter the portal, I take out the water bottle I had bought with me and pour the water inside the bottle into the ground turning the entire area around me into a muddy mess. After making sure that no one was near, I undress and then roll around the mud and completely cover my entire body in mud. I made sure to rub every inch of my body with mud. This was necessary because the death wisps hated mud and chose not to trap anything with dirt on it. After making sure that I was completely covered in mud, I take out a knife from the pocket of the pants that I had taken off.

Readying myself, I take deep breaths to calm my excited heart.

I think,\' Things are about to get dirty.\', before entering the portal.

Pun intended.

As I enter the portal, I laugh slightly at my joke.

~~~~

A young man was alone near Baryon Mountain.

He was completely naked and rolling around in the mud.

Truthfully, he looked like a sexual deviant. But his eyes were the eyes of someone who had a strong purpose.

After rolling around in the mud for a while, he gets up and takes a knife in hand, and laughs like a maniac, before entering a portal.

The young man didn\'t see the spot near his neck where the mud had not touched.
