I held the papers while crying, these papers contains information about the kidnapping incident that happened when I was 16
8 years ago...
It was afternoon the sun was bright and the wind was strong, how could they ask me to train?
I ran past the training ground and went to the mansion's parking lot, my eyes sparkled at the sight of my brother's car I quickly went inside using the stolen keys and drove my brother's car at full speed towards the city where my friends are waiting for me.
I decided to park near the dark alley so If they tried to track the car they would only discover its location but not where I was going to
"hah, I'm just too smart," I said as I got out of the car.
I heard footsteps but didn't pay any attention to them, It was probably some beggar or children playing around
The footsteps were getting weird as if it was trying to move silently on purpose, my instincts are telling me to run, 'I need to get in the car quickly and move to a different location.'
-BOOOM
I was about to go inside the car but my consciousness is fading away and the last thing I saw was a man in black aiming at my neck
~
And that is how I got kidnapped, I have been stuck in this room for a month already, They give me food once a week.
"Father is one of the strongest awakened why hasn't he saved me yet? maybe he's just having a hard time because the organization must be quite big, father and brother will come soon.
~
"Father I think it's been 3 months already? will you still come? is it because I was too naughty? I'll be good now, I'll stop using my brother's car too. I won't skip a single training too. Ah, I miss you all too I wish I talked with you all more often rather than causing trouble"
~
It's been a year already, I almost killed myself many times, and I also screamed for help for a month straight, I tried escaping but I failed, I wish I trained hard, I wish I awakened early as my brother I'm already 17 yet my peers awakened at 13 how shit.
"I talked to myself for quite a long time and he said he's tired of this shit and won't expect any help from his family that betrayed him"
The sound of air, trees, water, and earth can be heard from this wall I put all my strength into breaking it hoping that the other side of the wall would show me the outside world.
No one would hear the wall breaking because I made sure that cameras were the only guards today
The wall shattered and my fist is bleeding but I didn't feel any pain, I felt happy and free seeing the road and buildings in a distance. I should've done this earlier.
"For a year, I waited and hoped that they will come to save me. I will be the cause of your despair, father, brother."
Since I didn't awaken how can I survive in this world with monsters and have my sweet revenge? If I can't be a priest who can purify corrupted monsters, I can't be an archer, a necromancer, a magician, I can use swords but its only enough to fight an eight-grader, that won't be enough I need to develop a skill that can kill even awakened people.
Aha!
An assassin is someone who could kill the strongest if they let their guard down even for a second, although you need to be an extremely skilled assassin to execute this.
"ha, I don't need to be fair anyways"
I trained for 5 years to be an assassin, training to the point of almost dying a hundred times from poison and challenging different opponents.
I changed my Identity and started becoming an official assassin, I killed hundreds of people and became the leader of an organization that kills people in exchange for money, I did that for 2 years.
After gaining enough power I decided to find out what happened while I was kidnapped, It was a piece of information not anyone could know.
Father is very strict with personal matters being disclosed that I had to go to such lengths just to have a piece of information about the kidnapping incident.
"The head of the family died 5 years ago but the eldest son's rank has increased to 28th place recently."

when I heard my informant's report, I chuckled at my father's situation. I wanted to have a cute reunion and stab him with poison that'll torture him for years, too bad he's dead. How dare he die a peaceful death.
I'll torture my brother well in exchange for your peaceful death.
"Hey, what about the youngest son? Liev Varmon?"
"Liev Varmon died 8 years ago, his body was discovered burned in the area owned by the Paveno's family. It was said that the downfall of the family started when Liev died"
"BULLSHIT!"
My voice echoed through the whole room, the informant trembled after seeing my expression darken, it seemed to be confused as to why I was so mad regarding the information.
Burned in the Paveno family's area? could it be the Pavenos who tried to fake my death or was it someone trying to frame Paveno by putting a fake dead body of mine in their area? It was reasonable because Varmon and Paveno families were both known families we didn't really have a bad relationship but not a good one either, people assumed that we were enemies.
'It was said that the downfall of the family started when Liev died' the informant's words were stuck in my mind, I couldn't think of any possibilities for Varmon's downfall when I'm not that significant, I am arrogant, lavish and I didn't talk with my family that much. I still wished they'll save me because I'm his son and I'm his brother but 8 years have passed and I suffered every single year.
I breathed to calm my mind and took the papers the informant was holding and signaled the informant to leave the room.
I sat on my chair and started to read slowly.
My tears fell down as I continued to read, I'm afraid that the rage I felt for years was for nothing, I'm afraid to admit that maybe they really cared.
But I still had my doubts I flipped through the papers and looked through Varmon family's information over the past 8 years.
After reading, I placed the papers carefully on the desk.
Written in these papers are the evidences that they cared for me, tried to avenge me and that is all I need to know.
I ran quickly and drove my car full speed towards the mansion. I arrived there within an hour. I stared at the mansion for a minute, the last time I saw this was 8 years ago. I was so focused getting my revenge, I didn't allow myself to go back here for 8 years because my heart will soften.
I jumped through the steel fence that was full of rust as if it will crumble anytime soon. I went inside the mansion, it wasn't bright inside like it used to be.
memories of me escaping training and eating all the time came back to me as I walked towards the place where my father was buried.
~
I saw a big door, it wasn't locked or guarded but it was cleaned. This is where all the previous head of Varmon family's are buried.
-creak
I looked for his name and found his tomb.
I stared at my father's tomb and cried like a child, I can never feel my father's warmth all I can receive is my father's cold tomb, I apologized for doubting and thinking of torturing him.
I've been with father for a week now, my eyes couldn't even shed a tear anymore. I regretted everything. There's no point in killing the person behind this.
"oy, I get it already, you're so sad and regretful you surpassed human limits"
Is he here to steal? why is a stranger here? Is this an illusion of mine? I'm probably insane.
"son of a bitch, don't even think about getting crazy now that we chose you"
A floating screen popped in front of my face
[Congratulations! You are chosen as a "character"]
