Chapitre 20: Silver Mine
[Previous Night]
Last night, while still in the cave, Rain came up with an idea. "According to the storyline, those guys will come here before enrolling in the academy, and they will even take the bones of the dead ones," he thought.
He harbored a deep hatred for the evil organization responsible for his uncle and aunt's deaths and wanted revenge. In Rain's eyes, they were scum that should be erased from the earth.
Rain didn't exact time of their arrival, neither how did they know this place. It wasn't mentioned in the novel anyway. Why do you expect logic from shit novel?
He only knew they will come as Blood mountain is quite good place to get dead bodies. It's not like government doesn't care. But the area is quite dangerous and there are many more places that needs their focus.
So, he wrote a threatening message to whoever would come to the cave and placed several mana grenades he had obtained from the dead bodies.
These mana grenades would explode upon contact with even a small amount of mana or if smashed with force.
"Hehe. Hope those guys like my gifts," Rain said with a mischievous smile.

[Current time]
Rain didn't care what would happen because of his actions. He did what he wanted. As for aftermath, he might get some 'Blessings' from them as showing them way to afterlife. Now he was halfway through the Silver Mine.
'Silver Mine.'
It wasn't quite far away from Karoon city. It was located around outskirts of the city. In terms of games, you can say it's a field-type dungeon. As monsters, there are only golems.
In the game, some NPCs got an unknown ore. However, they didn't know what it was or the use of that ore. In the end, they sold it to a nearby blacksmith.
Coincidentally, that blacksmith was a wandering dwarf.
After seeing an ore at a glance, he knew what it was - ['meteor ore']. So he bought it.
With that ore, he made his best creation - a high-tier legendary sword. However, nobody used it ever.
It's because that dwarf was stingy and never sold it. Even when Protagonist asked to sell it, he declined.
'But now I will take that ore and use a magnificent sword forged from it.'

After some time, Rain arrived near the silver mine.
He stored his vehicle in a space ring and wore a concealment robe. It was a rare mid-tier artifact that Rain used for outdoor training.
[ -Concealment robe - Rare mid-tier artifact
- Rendering the wearer invisible to the naked eye in dim light or darkness.
- Muffle sound produced by its wearer, making their movements nearly silent.
- Mask its wearer's presence from magical detection and tracking spells.]
Because as Holmes Family's heir candidate, he quickly gets attention everywhere he goes.
'I don't know what kind of weird shit will come out. If I hang around here without concealment robe.' Rain started walking towards the hunting field.
After checking with the hunter booth, he entered the silver mine.
As the phenomenon of awakening began to spread across the world, there was a corresponding increase in criminal activity. In response, several governments banded together to create the Hunter Management Association, an organization tasked with regulating and monitoring the activities of hunters.
The association established hunter booths near various hunting locations, such as dungeons, gates, labyrinths, and ruins, which were accessible only with a valid hunting permit issued by the association.
In addition to overseeing hunting activities and issuing permits, the Hunter Management Association also provides emergency assistance to hunters.
However, even with this much authority, they were still helpless when it comes to high-ranking guilds such as the Azure Dragon Guild, which possess significant power and influence in the hunting community.
With his father's influence, Rain was able to get a counterfeit Hunter ID card. He used this ID card whenever he went to train outside. As he didn't like anyone to bother him, it was very useful for him.
Still, the Hunter Management Association's presence and authority had a significant impact on the world of hunting and adventurers. Still, it was clear - some powerful hunters operated outside of their jurisdiction.
As Rain traveled through the area, he overheard some adventurers discussing a matter that seemed to be related to him. This piqued his curiosity.
"Hey, did you hear about the heir of the Holmes Family?" A middle-aged man with a receding hairline and thick-rimmed glasses asked.
He had a small potbelly and wore a button-up shirt that looked several sizes too small for him.
His pants were pulled up too high, revealing white socks that reached his calves.
"Oh, Rain Holmes, right?" A young woman with long blonde hair, heavily made-up eyes, and bright pink lipstick responded.
She wore a tight, low-cut top that exposed her cleavage, and a short skirt that barely covered her thighs.
Her high heels were so tall that she struggled to maintain her balance.
"Yeah, apparently he got beaten by the Diamond of Rose and Kaya Holmes, haha," A young man with short, spiky hair and a leather jacket chimed in.
He had a large tattoo on his neck and several piercings on his ears and nose. He wore ripped jeans and black boots that looked like they had seen better days.
His arms were crossed, and he had a cocky grin on his face as he spoke.
"And there are also talks about engagement annulment and heir change," a Young woman with blond hair added.
"Well, maybe all people know how Rain Holmes licks Emma Rose, and Kaya is hardworking, so it's gonna happen." The middle age man commented.
The group erupted in laughter, and mocking comments directed at Rain. It was not an uncommon sight for Rain to be the subject of ridicule and scorn.
After all, it's the same. People tend to get happy about seeing someone's misery.
'Oh, this misery. Everyone wants to be my enemy.' Rain just started humming a song.
'Looks like Kaya spread some bad rumors again,' Rain guessed.
Because Rain only trained most of the time, he did not have many friends in this life either. It wasn't like he couldn't make friends. It's just Rain didn't want to.
While Kaya has a wide social network, she can spread this through her classmates - she always spreads these negative rumors.
'Calm down, Just [3 days], then my plan will work.'
Rain walked deeper into the silver mine. He didn't care much about those groups of weirdos. Someone will take care of them anyway.

[In the silver mine]
After entering the mine, Rain silently chased the golems, trying to take them down with his weapon. He had worn normal defensive clothing, and his fingers gripped the thunder eagle.
As he didn't want to get disturbed by other people, he came to pretty isolated area.
Because of surroundigs, silver golems could easily blend with them.
After some time, he spotted a silver golem. Rain carefully aimed at him and fired with the gun. But the bullet bounced harmlessly off the golem's metallic exterior.
'It seems ordinary bullets are ineffective against the golems.'
Therefore, Rain injected mana into the bullets, making them more potent.
As he fired some shots, Golem shuddered and started rushing towards him.
However, Rain continued to hit the silver golem, revealing its weakness - the crude core in the centre. With last trigger. Rain shattered the core, casuing golem to crumble into a heap of silver shards.
Afterwards, he reloaded his gun.
'It's good that I found plenty of magazines with Thunder Eagle.'
It wasn't like there were infinite bullets in the gun. Rain thought he would need to buy some magazines for 'Thunder Eagle' soon.
He thanked his luck that he didn't have to wander into the market to buy magazines for the gun.
After that, Rain continued exploring the silver mine, while hunting some silver golems.
The golems in this world were like those found in RPGs.
You just have to destroy their core to defeat them.
He continued to search for the golem's weak spot, all the while dodging the creature's attacks and firing his gun.
With this hunting, Rain's mana sense and control improved.
After a long and exhausting hunt, Rain finally found the meteor ore.
