'Fuu-woo. Fuu-woo... '
'I guess.. that person was right.. about this world...being literal hell. '
'Why am so pathetic and weak'
'Damn it...'
***
Sung Jin-Woo, a 18 year-old teenage who's life been currently hell. No matter where he went kids from school would avert eyes from him. The reason for this is because he's the weakest in all school, no maybe no matter where he went the tile"Weak" would always follow him. He only wants to have an average life without any distractions from the world.
In school, students are preformed to battle hand to hand combat. Why? Well since the well known "society" wants to preform a battle when students are graded by strength.
Jin-Woo is no exception.
When he first got into school he had to battle someone that person trained material arts, which they got the huge advantage. Losing the battle he didn't last even a second. The school announced that students could fight against each month since it holds each students progress through training. Yes this includes for women too.
Each student is rank of how strong the person is going from Rank-E to Rank-S. Of course Jin-Woo is rank E which is the lowest.
Each month Jin-Woo would try to improve. But each time he tried, he could never beaten anyone, nor has he won a battle.
But, everything change when Sung Jin-Woo was sudden given memories from another person.
Would he call this transferred or reborn?
Well, not that it matters.
Receiving these bizarre memories, the world he is currently on is a living nightmare. Not for Jin-Woo but this otherworldly. This is just the beginning. The world Jin-Woo is on, was suddenly influenced memories from a different world. Memories that would unify the world in chaos if revealed.
From theses memories, the world he's currently standing on is where many women have s*x, seduce men, and do favors confidential. Finding out the truth about this world, women would do this to their husbands, boyfriends, and childhood friends. This would nauseate Jin-Woo. Even though he never experienced this, the memories he granted these memories, it affected and mixed his emotional with it. Now he wanders the earth about it.
Should he make a change in this world?
Save those that surfer?
Get revenge on those that take their love ones?
Wandering and thinking about this bothers Jin-Woo. Even if he wanted to accomplish these challenges, he's way to weak to fight head on. Without strength, your nothing. Still he doesn't believe in so call "reborn in another world"
Having thoughts about this, Jin-Woo makes his way to his house. His house is average, not to big and neither small. Enough to walk around freely. Preparing to go to bed, he brushed his teeth and washed his face.
Getting ready for bed, he reflects about today's situation. Jin-Woo brainstorms whether or these memories are real or not.
"Even if it was truth, what can I accomplish with my weak body."
Jin-Woo recalls. He'll get his ass beat up if he not prepare for what's coming for him. But he keeps getting this weird scene of déjà vu?
"Well... I'll recap about this more tomorrow."
Turning off the lights, Jin-Woo falls asleep.

"Jin-san!"
"Jin-san!"
Inside a classroom, Jin-Woo was peacefully taking a nap a ease. But one of his classmates was calling out to him.
"What is it... oh it's you."
"Jin-san... umm, are you okay? It looks you need to catch some zzz's."
Hearing this Jin-Woo lets out a sigh.
According to his previous memories, he's Yuuta Yamano.
'Yuuta Yamono...'
Jin-Woo quickly flipped where he heard a voice cried out.
'Yuuta?'
"Are you alright Jin-san?"
Turning his head back to his classmate he lets a sigh.
"Yeah. I'm alright"
"Why make that face, come on try to pay attention in school, you don't want to make a bad appearance and get bad grades now would you?"
"Yeah, right..."
'Ah. Now I remember. Yuuta Yamano, an average student with average looks. Jin-Woo and Yuuta aren't friends, but neither strangers. Jin-Woo senses a weird scenario that he met this person.? He recalls having Yuuta dating someone from Class - C. Who was she again? Shinomiy—'
"Umm whats on your mind Jin-san?"
Snapping back to reality, Jin-Woo shakes his head.
"Just thinking about the world we're currently living on"
"What about it?"
"It just... you know... never mind."
"..."
"I know your are you thinking about the system about society of women in the so called 'Dropout'? But ummm... You know that we can't do anything about it or change it program and you know that." Yuuta exclaims.
"Yeah, I know" Jin-Woo signed.
"It's just now, no matter how much I think about that, isn't there a way to change society there?"
Lifting his head upwards. Jin-Woo makes eye-contact to Yuuta.
"What if I try to talk them out about it. Do you think I could make them change the..."
"Jin-san, we don't have that kind of power like the government does. Trying to bring down the program 'dropout' would be impossible"
"..."
"Without power or strength you can't accomplish the things you want to do." This time, Yuuta's voice was a little gloomy.
'He's right.'
'With the state I'm in, I won't any land a scratch on them, just a bug that could be squashed by the government.' thought Jin-Woo.
Clenching his fists. Ever since the program 'dropout' was created. Many young people who were enable to find a job or or have failed high school—into compulsory labor. Yeah it was simple manual work, but it was soon turned into dropout girls having to preform mandatory sexual service for men. To be frank. If the students own academics performances were outstanding. They'll receive the same performance to get a 'dropout' they would receive.
"A-Anyways I'll take my leave. I don't want to make Shinomiya-san waiting for me any longer. I'll see you tomorrow Song-san!"
"Yeah... later"
Running out the door, Jin-Woo saw as Yuuta left the classroom.
'He and Shinomiya Natsuha dating...'

Ready to leave school, Jin-Woo was packing up up school supplies. Taking his time packing up he realizes it was getting late.
'Should I stop by the grocery store?'
Finishing packing up, Jin-Woo walks out of school. Heading to the grocery store he spots a similar face. No doubt, it was the mother of Yuna and Nina, Mira Tsubakihara. Jin-Woo stood for a moment to recap some things.
'Isn't she the mother of Yuuji Enomoto?'
'But why I'm I seeing other things in her'
'She's probably out shopping too, I should mind my own buisness.'
Heading towards the store, he quickly avoided eye-contact. Walking inside the grocery, he headed through the section "Food Supple." Jin-Woo only had little bit of money with him right now. So the only thing he could get is a cup of noodles.
'Not even enough to buy sandwich, with so little money, I probably won't get to eat anything for the next two or three months.'
***
"Thank you!"
After buying something to eat, Jin-Woo started heading towards his house. It was getting dark and the wind blew a cold breeze. Recapping about what Yuuta said during school, he was a bit to chatty with him today.
'The strong rules over the weak huh'
Walking throughout a park, Jin-Woo couldn't wrap thing around his head. Why was he to formal with Yuuta when they never spoken before. Sure they have little conversation, but today seem like they knew each other. Something strange going on here. Feeling admonish, Jin-Woo paused for a moment.
THUMP!!
THUMP!!
VEROOM!!
Of course, Jin-Woo notice the situation change. Because his sense have improved over the months, they were running at full tilted already, he could tell where the noise was coming from right away.
"What, what was that?"
"W-what?"
Jin-Woo, who was just recently in a park, was sudden transported inside a weird room. Flames erupted on the numerous torches pack tightly on the wall all at the same time. Thanks to that, the interior brightened up the teenager.
"What's the heck? Where did these lights came from?"
"What kind of place... is this?"
Jin-Woo cautiously studied his surroundings. The overall atmosphere of the place was similar to that of an ancient temple.
Not only that, an old and somewhat decrepit temple, something that might be buried and hidden beneath the ground; moss and weed could be seen sporadically on the floor, walls and the ceiling.
Of course the teenager shrunk back and shuddered slightly.
"Creepy.."
"This feels somewhat familiar. Like I'm being watched some someone or something."
The interior was nonsensically huge. The chamber was shaped like giant dome. It was as large as several Olympic stadiums, ones that reminding him from somewhere, were put together – no, maybe it was even bigger than that.
However, Jin-Woo couldn't help but feel that it was still inadequate.
Well the reason for that was rather very obvious.
'Oh, my god..."
"What the hell... is that thing's the boss?"
Right at the deepest part of the dome, something so logic-defyingly humongous was sitting on a throne just as big as itself. It was non other than a huge stone statue of a god.
Shocked gasps leaked out from Jin-Woo
Looking at the statue, in Sung's head was the Statue of Liberty in New York who's a women, but while the one sitting on the throne was a dude, though. But if that statue was just sat down on a chair, wouldn't was make it as big as that statue of the undefined god?
'No, hang on. Maybe it's even bigger than that...
Swallowing his saliva near the foot of the god statue. A heavy taut and apprehension and anxiety was clear to see on Song's face being worried that this statue being the dungeon's boss.
However not a single inch the statue did not budge.
Inside the chamber of the god statue, it's massive, but it's structure was on a simpler side. Countless torches could be found on the walls and whats more, other statue could be seen, slightly taller than a human being, stood tall and unmoved. There were lots of them that were found from a certain distance from one another.
Each statue held different weapons and items that were every varied and different from another.
Some held weapons, one was holding a book, some carried even instruments and torches.
"It's as if... they're statue of a holy temple that guard a sacred place."
"Mm?"'
Then, Sung Jin Woo found something beneath his feet.
Beneath his feet was a magic formation that looks from ancient times too.
Continuing looking the room, he spectates on one of the statue that caught his gaze, of course Song knew this statue was different from the others.
Heading towards the statue, it's features where abnormal than the others statues. This statue featured a pair of wings and carried a stone slate while covered in cloths that covered it's faced. But what caught Sung's eyes were the scripture letters carved on the slate. Song took a sweeping look at it and murmurs. Murmuring, a voice echoed in Song's head.
"Rune Alphabet"
The Rune alphabet, words that can't be found anywhere on Earth and only in dungeons; only those hunters who 'awakened' the magic-related professions could decipher them
'?!'
"Did I just say that just now? Hunters, magic?"
Confused, Jin-Woo didn't know what to do. Trying to read aloud this time, this time he understands the scripted meaning on the slate.
"The laws of the Karutenon Temple"
Sung reads the first verse on the slate.
"Worship the god. Second law. Exalt the god. Third law. Prove your piety. Those who do not keep to these laws shall not leave this place alive."
Jin-Woo jolted back. Realizing something was wrong, the atmosphere felt different for Sung. Everything was silent. Not even the sound of flames being lit up are head anymore.
Looking at the god of statue, Jin-Woo couldn't help but stare at it. It gave an ominous feeling that it was watching him just now. Then it hit. The statue's eyes moved.
'It moved! But if he can move, the doesn't that mean don't that the other status could too?!'
