500 Years Ago

One day, 500 years ago, a rainstorm started, and this rainstorm had a crystallized structure which was different from the regular rain that occurs. This rainstorm held up for one week, and it rained crystallized water all through the week. Immediately after the rainstorm disappeared, animals became mutants and started to attack humans. However, animals were not the only ones who changed from the rainstorm; humans also obtained attributes and special powers which helped them fight against beasts and animals that became monsters.

The Emergence of Attribute Possessors

Humans who changed from this unexpected event are called attribute possessors. Their abilities are ranked from the highest, which is SSS, to SS, S, A, B, C, D, E, and F.

The Creation of Dungeons

After this occurrence, humans stood up for themselves, and the strongest of the strongest, who were ranked as SSS attribute possessors, combined their strengths and sealed off the monsters in various areas built underground. This place, which became the new home for these monsters, was called a "dungeon."

Present Day

"Hey Asher," a guy called Stephen shouted at the gate entrance of a dungeon.

Asher is a 19-year-old boy with no attributes of any kind. When Asher was young, he always dreamt of being the strongest attribute possessor in the world, but his dream was shattered when he was told he had no attributes. As he grew, things became even worse, and this caused him to be bullied by people, including his mates and even younger kids.

Asher's parents also died in a dungeon when he was seven years old, and this caused him even more misfortune. He lived on his parents' endurance money, but it was only a matter of time before he was cheated, and the money was stolen.

"What did I do now?" Asher said in his thoughts as he acted like he did not hear Stephen and decided to enter the dungeon as fast as possible.

Stephen noticed this and let Asher enter because he had a plan.

Stephen is a 19-year-old boy, the same age as Asher, but Stephen enjoys bullying Asher, and he gets away with it because his father is one of the strongest (S) attribute possessors and has large influence over important people.

Asher successfully got into the dungeon, although it was classified as an F-rank dungeon. However, he had no other choice but to go in there and try to fight without attributes to support himself and make a living.

"Ah," Asher sighed in relief. "Stephen wouldn't be allowed into an F-rank dungeon since he is an A-rank attribute possessor, so I should be safe for now," Asher said to himself.

Asher then walked down the dark and creepy dungeon stairs, which led downwards.

Asher finally got to the end of the stairs, and before getting there, he saw a reflection of light at the end of the stairs. When he finally got there, the place, which was as dark as night, became bright and clear like day.

Asher took a deep breath before moving on because he knew what he wanted to face.

Asher walked a bit deeper and then saw a weird-looking rat. This rat had left the rat stage and was now at the goblin stage after constantly killing and eating humans.

Asher was equipped with only a short knife and crappy body protection, which made his survival chances low. However, Asher didn't want to die poor. He always said to himself, "I'd rather die in a dungeon than die poor. I will become an SSS-rank attribute possessor with the strongest ability one day, and I will not die a virgin."

The goblin jumped to attack Asher with its claws, but Asher didn't bother moving away. He waited until the claws of the goblin hit him before he used his opportunity to attack while it was off guard.

After the goblin had cut Asher with its claws, Asher immediately struck back by driving his knife into the goblin's head, killing it completely.

Asher then used a healing potion, which healed him completely, but at a high cost, leaving him with barely enough money for food and house rent.

After Asher killed the goblin, he tore its heart open and removed the crystal inside, which he would use as an exchange for money.

Asher walked a bit more forward and then saw a broken part of the dungeon that had never been there before.

"How did this get here?" Asher asked himself. Asher was used to the F-rank dungeon, as he went there constantly to get enough to eat.

"Should I take a look?" Asher thought to himself. "Well, it's an F-rank dungeon; I might be able to handle whatever might be inside. If I can't, I will run," Asher said to himself.

Asher walked into the broken walkway of the F-rank dungeon, and what he saw there was surprising. It was a cemetery.

Different tombstones were in view, but one coffin was visible, and it seemed to be separated from the others, which were buried. This coffin was placed on top of a stone structure with different designs and weird writings on it.

Asher went closer and viewed the writings engraved on the stone. Asher was unable to understand anything written on it.

Asher decided to leave the place, but just as he turned, he saw Stephen and someone else, a guy standing by the entrance.

"It's time for payback," Stephen said to Asher.

"But I did nothing wrong," Asher said to Stephen.

"So you're going to deny it," the other guy said.

"What do you mean I did nothing?" Asher said to Stephen and the guy.

"If you're going to deny it, then you deserve more than death," Stephen said to Asher.

"I did nothing," Asher said continuously.

"I hope you will enjoy living in this cemetery for the rest of your life. Well, you were dead anyway," Stephen said with a heartless tone, which was obvious from his speaking.

"Do it," Stephen said to the guy.

The guy then raised his hand towards the broken entrance and blasted a fireball from his hand, causing rocks to fall and block the entrance.

At the last moment, Asher didn't just stand and do nothing; he tried to rush out before the rocks completely blocked the exit, but he was unable.

Asher became not just sad but also angry at the same time. Tears fell from his eyes as he repeatedly said, "I don't want to die."

After a day without food in the cemetery, he started to think again, and then he said to himself repeatedly, "I will not die a virgin." This thought made him start digging; he dug and dug without food and water, and it seemed like all hope was lost.

Another day passed, and Asher was still in the cemetery. Asher looked and looked at the coffin, and then he got curious about what was inside, so he decided to take a look.

As Asher stood up from the ground, he fell right back to the ground; all his muscles were aching due to the constant digging. His throat was dry due to no intake of water, and his energy was failing due to no food intake.

Asher still didn't let that stop him; he got up with all he had and struggled to the coffin stone. Asher then used the stone to get up to the coffin; he then opened the coffin with all his remaining strength and fell to the ground again without seeing what was inside the coffin.

He then got up with all he had, and what he saw was something he could never have thought of. It was a lady, and not just a lady, but a beautiful lady who was greatly blessed with a good and perfect body, dressed in a white gown.

Seeing this, Asher felt a spirit of lust rest on him, and he said to himself, "Am I hallucinating?"

Asher then tried reaching for her breast. "No, no, no," he said to himself. "I can't do this."

Asher then controlled himself, but his desire soon took over. He placed his hands on the dead lady's breasts, and as he did, the coffin began to glow. Asher's eyes closed, and he felt an intense sensation.

Suddenly, the coffin started to glow with a reddish, blue, and black color. Asher's eyes started to close, and he slowed down as he couldn't feel anything again.

Suddenly, the lady's eyes opened, and then he blacked out.

Asher saw himself in an empty void, just floating around, and then he heard a strange sound.

[Beep Beep]

[Syncing System]

[Congratulations on becoming a System user]

Asher's curiosity grew as he accepted the system. The void dissipated, and he opened his eyes to find himself back in the coffin.

[Congratulations on activating the 'All to Steal System']

Asher was confused, but he felt a strange energy coursing through his body. He looked around and saw that the lady was gone, but the coffin was still glowing.

Asher got out of the coffin, feeling a mix of emotions. He was confused, excited, and a little scared. He didn't know what the system was or what it meant, but he was determined to find out.

As he walked out of the cemetery, Asher felt a sense of hope that he hadn't felt in a long time. He knew that his life was about to change, and he was ready to face whatever challenges came his way.

Asher woke up in the coffin, and as he woke up, he raised his head. What he saw made him very happy. The exit was open, but something strange happened also; there was a window platform before him that said:

[Congratulations on obtaining the All to Steal Lust System]

"All to Steal Lust System, what is that?" Asher asked himself, and suddenly Asher got a written reply from the system saying:

[The All to Steal System is a system that grants the user the attribute to copy others' attributes, and it will remain permanently, so the user can use other attributes. However, there is a requirement to help the system help you, and that requirement is that you must Obey the System command when the system requests it.]

"What the ...., all this is crazy" Asher said in disbelief.

[Please head out and let's start with today's requirements.]

"I guess I have to leave eventually anyway," Asher said as he got up from the coffin.

When Asher got out of the coffin, he was shocked. All the graves were gone; it seemed like they just disappeared.

After getting down from the coffin, he looked to see the coffin, but when he looked, it was gone.

"What, I just got out of the coffin; how did it just suddenly disappear?" Asher said in thought with shock.

Asher then walked out with his knife, which he picked from the floor. Just as with the coffin, when Asher came out, the entire place where he was once trapped disappeared. This gave him even more shock.

Asher then forgot about it and continued walking with the plan to leave the dungeon temporarily.

"System, show me today's requirements," Asher said to the system.

The system obeyed and brought up in the system window:

[The day's requirements are as follows]

[Push-ups: 0/50] +2 strength

[Sit-ups: 0/50] +2 speed +2 agility

"Wow, just like a game" Asher said. "That means if I try ....., na, it shouldn't be possible, or can it actually rate my stat? I might as well try it," Asher said in thought.

"System, show me my stat."

~System window~

Name: Asher Stiles

Level: 1

Rank: F

Strength: 5

Speed: 5

Stamina: 5

Agility: 5

Attribute: None

~End of System display~

"Wow, it actually works, awesome," Asher said as he saw the system display screen.

"Let me try completing the system requirements for the day. I want to know if I will actually get stronger," Asher said with determination.

Asher then went down and started doing push-ups. Although he thought it would be dangerous doing so in a dungeon, he was really desperate to know if it would actually add to his stats, so he did it anyway.

Asher was doing the push-ups, but when he got to 39, his strength started to fail him. However, he didn't give up there; he pushed on and completed the 50. Immediately the 50 were completed, Asher fell to the ground in exhaustion.

A notification from the system suddenly appeared, saying:

[50 push-ups completed, you have earned +2 strength]

Asher's muscles suddenly tightened after the system notification, and he himself felt stronger. Not just that, the pains were also gone.

"Cool, it actually works; I feel even stronger," Asher was feeling very confident in his newly acquired strength. This made him punch the wall, and what happened next was definitely a shock to Asher.

The wall broke, and this proved his strength had increased. This made him happy, so he wasted no time starting to do sit-ups.

[50 sit-ups completed, you have gained +2 speed and +2 agility]

Asher suddenly felt lighter; this made him start to bounce on his toes. He felt like a totally different person.

Grrr... Grawling sounds came from goblins. Asher felt even more confident to face them, and this was because he was sure he could put an end to them quite easily.

The Goblin suddenly attacked Asher with its claws, but unlike before, Asher was faster and stronger. So, he dodged the goblin's claws easily and stabbed the goblin at the back of the head.

~System notification~

[You have killed a goblin; one crystal obtained]

"Like seriously, the system actually automatically picks up the monster crystals for me," Asher said, as it seems like he is enjoying using the system.

Asher got very confident in his ability to kill goblins, so he decided to go deeper into the dungeon rather than go out of it.

Just as he thought, he went on deeper into the dungeon, facing all the goblins on his way.

Just as he thought, he went on deeper into the dungeon, facing all the goblins on his way. However, he suddenly came across an evolved goblin, this goblin handled a knife.

The system made the names of every monster seeable for Asher, as their names hung above them like a floating tag.

Asher didn't find it a problem, as he charged in to attack, but the goblin easily dodged with his knife. Asher was surprised the goblin could keep up with his speed, but Asher didn't stop there; he went on ahead to try another attack, and this was also evaded by the goblin.

The goblin then started to attack back without stop, but thanks to Asher's agility, he dodged all the goblin's attacks easily.

The battle between Asher and the goblin was immense, and this was due to his lack of attributes. This made Asher see and also know the importance of having an attribute.

After an immense battle, Asher came out victorious.

~System notification~

[You have killed an evolved goblin]

[Congratulations, you have leveled up]

[Your current level is level 3]

[Your stats have increased]

[You have a total of 5 crystals]

~End of system notification~

"Nice, that should be enough for today," Asher said, as he felt contented with his results.

"I can finally resume school and continue my studies at this rate," Asher thought to himself.

Asher dropped out of school due to his inability to pay his tuition fees, but he could finally go back. He knew that with the help of the system, he could make enough money.

While Asher was about to leave the dungeon, he saw a group who were fighting goblins together. This made him ask the system, "How can I copy attributes?"

The reply he got was:

[Once you see the attribute in display or if you are attacked with it, you will be able to copy it]

This information Asher heard from the system made him decide to watch them. He watched and watched, but no one was using their attributes.

Asher thought they might be high-ranked attribute possessors, so they might not need to use their attributes. However, just as he thought that, a guy used an assassination-type attribute.

Immediately, the system brought up:

[Do you wish to copy the assassination-type attribute?]

[The assassination-type attribute is an attribute that helps keep you undetectable in the dark or shadows. It also adds +20% speed and agility, and attack damage increases by 50% when using a short blade or a mid-range blade only (it's stronger you are, the more stronger and effective the attribute becomes)]

Asher definitely didn't hesitate; he believed it was a unique attribute. So, he said yes, giving the system the command to copy the attribute.

[Assassination attribute copied (level 1)]

Asher left the dungeon happily, with a smirk on his face.

Asher stood in front of the school gates, feeling a mix of emotions. He had dropped out of school due to financial difficulties, but now, with the help of the system, he was able to return.

As he walked through the gates, he was greeted by familiar faces. Some of his former classmates looked at him with surprise, while others seemed indifferent.

Asher made his way to his new classroom, his heart racing with anticipation. He took a deep breath and stepped inside.

The classroom fell silent as all eyes turned to him. Asher scanned the room, his eyes locking onto a familiar face - Stephen.

Stephen's eyes narrowed, a sneer spreading across his face. "Well, well, well. Look what we have here. The dropout is back," Stephen said, his voice dripping with malice.

Asher ignored Stephen's jibe and made his way to an empty seat. However, Stephen was not one to let things go.

"You think you can just waltz back in here after dropping out? You're a joke, Asher," Stephen said, his voice rising.

But Asher was not the same person he was before. With the system's help, he had gained confidence and strength.

"I'm not afraid of you, Stephen," Asher said, his voice calm and steady.

Stephen's face turned red with rage. "You think you're tough? I'll show you what tough looks like," Stephen said, taking a step closer to Asher.

But before Stephen could do anything, a girl intervened. "Stephen, stop. Leave him alone," she said, her voice firm.

Asher recognized the girl as Stephen's girlfriend, Emily. She was known for her beauty and kindness.

Stephen's face twisted in anger, but he backed off, not wanting to upset Emily.

However, the confrontation was far from over. Later that day, during lunch, Stephen confronted Asher again, this time in the school compound.

"You think you can humiliate me in front of my girlfriend? You're dead," Stephen said, his eyes blazing with anger.

The two boys faced off, their fists clenched. The students around them cheered and chanted, eager to see a fight.

But Asher was not afraid. With the system's help, he had gained the assassin attribute. He waited for Stephen to make the first move.

Stephen charged at Asher, but Asher dodged easily, using his newfound agility. However, Stephen suddenly vanished into thin air, only to reappear behind Asher.

Asher spun around, his eyes widening in surprise. Stephen had the teleportation attribute.

"You can't defeat me, Asher," Stephen sneered, his eyes gleaming with confidence.

Asher gritted his teeth, determination burning within him. He used the system to steal Stephen's attributes, gaining the teleportation attribute.

~System notification~

[Attribute spotted]

[Steal permission granted]

[You have successfully stolen the attribute 'Teleportation' (A)]

~End of system notification~

But it wasn't easy. Stephen's teleportation attribute made him a formidable opponent. Asher found himself struggling to keep up, teleporting from one place to another.

Stephen became uneasy as he saw Asher use his attribute, how possible Stephen question, but yet no answer to that. Although only Asher knows of his capabilities.

The battle was intense, with both boys teleporting around the school compound, their fists clashing in mid-air.

But Asher refused to give up. He used his assassin attribute to its fullest potential, striking at Stephen with deadly precision.

Stephen tried to defend himself, but Asher's attacks were relentless. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Stephen stumbled backwards, his eyes wide with defeat.

Asher stood tall, his chest heaving with exertion. He had won.

The students cheered, and Emily looked at Asher with a mixture of shock and admiration.

Stephen glared at Asher, his eyes burning with hatred. "You may have won this time, Asher, but I'll be back," Stephen snarled, before storming off while he question himself"why did I lose, how did I lose, how is he using my attribute".

Asher watched him go, a sense of satisfaction washing over him. He had proven himself, and he knew that he would never be bullied again.

As the days went by, Asher became the talk of the school. Students looked up to him with admiration, and even the teachers took notice of his newfound confidence.

The fact that he was able to copy Stephen's attributes was more of a surprise to everyone as they wonder how possible, could it be that Asher also have a similar attribute? The students and teachers question themselves.

Asher had finally found his place in the world, and he knew that nothing could ever bring him down again.

But little did Asher know, his victory over Stephen had not gone unnoticed. A new challenger was emerging, one who would put Asher's skills to the test.

The stage was set for a new battle, one that would determine Asher's true strength. But for now, Asher basked in the glory of his victory, his name etched in the minds of his peers as a force to be reckoned with.
