Last month I finally turned 10 and today it's the yearly recruitment for warriors, when a person turns 10 years old they can go to the warrior's association to register and summon their monster.

A person can only summon one monster in their entire life, that's why your career about being a warrior depends on this very day.

Some people lose their summons in battle and they can't climb the tower anymore, one of the requirements to climb is to have your own summoned monster.

Some people can summon humanoid monsters and they become the luckiest of the bunch, humanoid monsters are smartest of all and are capable of using skills made and refined by humans over past thousands of years.

Whereas the unluckiest of the bunch are never able to summon anything...

I'm the prince of a fallen Kingdom, last of my bloodline. No one knows this fact except me.

Even I found out about it last month when I turned 10, a holographic message suddenly appeared in front of my face when I was trying to sleep at the orphanage.

[Name - Dreck Stuart

Age - 10

rank - royalty

skills - none

summon - locked

special title - last of his bloodline

special title bonus - (luck +10)]

The tower is similar to a dungeon, it has been discovered that there are a total of 70 floors in the tower of this continent. No one has gone past 70th floor because it has a dragon guarding the entrance of the 71th floor. The towers of each continent are different and have slight variations of monsters and traps found inside them.

After waiting for a long while my name was finally called "Dreck Stuart enter the room"

The examiner was in his sixties, he had a majestic white beard and a strong muscular body.

As the procedure says I entered the room and placed my hand on top of the transparent crystal ball which came towards me floating in the mid air.

After that the crystal ball shone with a blue colour and a figure appeared inside it, it was an egg.

The crystal ball flew back towards the man sitting on the chair and he stared at the picture inside it for a few seconds and finally said something and then wrote it inside his journal.

"monster egg, combat power - 0"

One weird fact was that the summoned monster can only be used inside the tower.

I had no choice but to leave with a disappointed face as it was totally impossible to tell how long an egg might take to hatch.

At night the same holographic screen appeared in front of my face again.

[Name - Dreck Stuart

Age - 10

rank - royalty

skills - none

summon - mysterious egg

summon effects - the summoner will gain

two times the effect of training.

special title - last of his bloodline

special title bonus - (luck +10)]

I knew there shouldn't be any summon effects for an unhatched egg but now I have a monstrous effect available.

According to records one only gains upto 50% training boost even with a adult monster of a rare grade.

With this I knew that this is the magic of those 10 points of luck, but some things are still unclear to me about my bloodline...

The orphanage only provides us with 3 meals a day and a place to sleep till we are 15 years old, after that the kids are considered as grown ups and they are kicked out of the orphanage.

If we want to earn pocket change then we have to go out and look for odd jobs like selling newspapers, etc.

The warriors who summoned strong monsters are instantly recruited by guilds, even those with mediocre monsters are able to find a place because of the high number of guilds.

The death rate of warriors is less than 10% so it's not as risky as others make it sound.

The only reason for death is lack of skill and challenging monsters beyond your level.

(Author: I really want to say this because I read some novels and comics saying death rate is very high for similar professions and it really makes me sick when the main character goes around killing everything beyond his level whereas ordinary people die from monsters below or of the same level)

I applied to a few mediocre guilds and got accepted almost instantly.

The next day I have to go to their guild house and officially register as a member so I slept early tonight.

(author: I am gonna try to start the story from third person perspective now....)

He woke up early in the morning at 7 am and then he was prepared to leave by 8 am, he arrived at the entrance of a giant building which was way bigger than his orphanage.

"Will I be part of this guild?"

He thought to himself looking at the luxurious building and then entered it, a guard looked at his application and guided him towards the reception.

That was all it took to become a member of a guild, although he had to sign a 6 months contract and he's only a temporary member for now because of the uncertainty of the monster that might hatch from the egg.

He can use the library and the training grounds freely, the main reason was to look for battle skills in the library because he can't afford to buy them.

He also gets some pocket change enough to buy him 3 meals in the guild canteen and a room to rest for night, that means he doesn't have to waste time on travelling.

He immediately went towards the library and started browsing through the books, one has to train their physical body and their mana both to remove the shackles that prevents them from climbing higher floors.

(Author: Apparently this world doesn't have things like levels where you can become strong just by slaying monsters so at the end of the day it all comes down to your skills)

He decided to spend 1 hour to practice his physical body and rest of the time to train mana.

Although he got stares from the crowd here and there because it wasn't so easy for them to become a member here and now they can see a orphan who doesn't even have a background get accepted so easily.

Although mostly everyone present were commoners but they were jealous of his luck.

Apparently a group of hot headed fools ended up going to him and started to create trouble.

"Ah hello, you must be new in the guild", a boy who was about 13 years old approached him and moved his hand forward for a handshake.

"Yes, I am dreck and I became a member today only", he is oblivious to the intentions of the guy who came to pick on him.

They both shook their hands but the other person was unwilling to let go and increased the pressure on his hand.
