BXBX NOVEL Chapter 55: Ch-55 Opportunity For Growth
"Phew, that was tough," Aiden muttered as he observed the dead body of a wolf-like beast lying at his feet.
It had now been a whole month since he had awakened, and everything still felt like a dream to him, and he wished it was maybe then his parents would still be alive.
But there is no point crying over the past; all you can do is move on and look forward to the future, which is exactly what he planned.
He was blessed with powers beyond his wildest dreams, and he planned to use them to avenge his dead parents.
The only problem was that he still wasn\'t sure who he was supposed to take revenge on. And the fact that he was still too weak was also a problem.
Ever since his awakening, the system has given him a special quest, which he has now finally managed to complete after a whole month of blood, sweat, and tears.
But it\'s fine; this amount of hard work is the least he can do for revenge and to repay the god who gave him this opportunity.
"Status Screen," Aiden muttered.

"It\'s still hard to believe how fast my growth is," Aiden mused.
And he was right; in just a month, he had gone from a mere 75 BF to a whopping 1100 BF, all thanks to his system.
If anyone hears him, they\'ll practically shed tears of blood out of jealousy, with many saying he didn\'t deserve this gift.
But Aiden didn\'t care about that.
All that mattered to him was getting stronger, and this system was just a means to an end for that. Besides, the system didn\'t just give rewards to him for existing; he had to work hard for them, even risking his life for the past month.
And thanks to that mission, he now also has a pretty good grasp of his current skill set.
[Strong Mind] just made it easier for him to resist mental attacks and allowed him to remain calm in stressful situations.
[Appraisal] allowed him to put living beings or items into quantifiable numbers.
This skill was a personal favourite of his, as it let him judge if it was safe for him to fight something or not and made it so he wasn\'t going into fights completely blind.
[Circulation of Light] allowed him to rid his body of most status effects.
It was very overpowered , as this meant that while he wasn\'t fully immune, he did have a very absurd resistance to poisons.
Next was his [light railgun]. This one was his personal favourite, as it allowed him to fire a beam of pure light out of his fingertips, capable of destroying most things in his path.
Sadly, it took too much mana, so it was still only a trump card for him.
As for [accelerate] and [heavy hit], they did exactly as the name implied and allowed him to increase his speed as well as make his attacks hit harder, respectively.
He had also brought Flame Sword Style, a sword technique that allowed him to summon hot flames capable of burning his enemies around his blade.
Aiden really liked this sword style and planned to take it to a high level before he purchased another sword style.
He had managed to take it all the way to low rank in just a month, a feat testifying to his monstrous talent in terms of martial arts.
Speaking of talent, next was his aspect, and this was something he was really excited about.
------------------------------------------------------------
Name:Aiden Lunar
Aspect Name: Martial Blade God
Aspect Tier: V
Flaw: Spellless: The user is incapable of learning spells.

(b) Trace of All Armours
The user can trace any armour. The user can trace any armour and later materialise it for his use. He can also summon duplicates of the same armour,fuse or modify preexisting ones, thus creating his own custom armour.
------------------------------------------------------------
Aiden was very pleased by what he saw; his aspect definitely was deserving of the \'Divine\' status.
Sure, his aspect may not appear that impressive right now, but that\'s just due to it being an accumulation-type aspect and him lacking proper resources right now.
In the future, once he has hundreds, if not thousands, of legendary, divine, or maybe even one or two mythical-grade weapons traced, he\'ll basically be peerless and truly unparalleled.
But of course, that\'s for the future; he can\'t waste his present drooling over the prospects of the future.
So he opened his quest menu, excited to finally claim the thing he had been grinding for the past month.
------------------------------------------------------------
[Quests]
1. [Kill 100 Beasts]
Beasts slain: (100/100)
Time limit: 2 months
Prize: [Light Ascension] (Claim) (Yes/No)
Penalty: Reduction of current BF by half
------------------------------------------------------------
Aiden smiled as he clicked on the prize and finally acquired the thing he had been anticipating for the past month. He had finally acquired his own ascension.
He could tell that even in the future, this would be his trump care; he still didn\'t have enough mana to use it, but just having it made him feel stronger than before.
-Ding
It seemed the system had no intention of letting him rest, even for a moment.
He smirked as he clicked the notification, excited for the new opportunity.
------------------------------------------------------------
[Quests]
1. [Calling of an Adventurer]
Details: Go to Markwelter Kingdom in Astressa and acquire the status of S rank adventurer.
Time limit: 2 years
Reward: [Sword of Light]
Penalty: reduction of all stats by 100
------------------------------------------------------------
"Wow, you\'re asking me to achieve S rank just after I awakened a month ago?."
"Call about having insane standards."
"But it\'s fine after all; tough challenges are usually followed by great rewards that I have no intention of missing out on."
"I guess I\'m going to planet Astress, which should be fun." Aiden mused with a smirk on his face as he planned his future journey.

Authors note:-
I guess our two divine humans might end up meeting much sooner than expected. Feel free to place your bets on how it will go down and how they will interact in the future. I can\'t wait to see all the theories you guys come up with.
