Rebirth of the Ruined Noble

In this world, there was an awakening phenomenon called 'enlightenment.' Often called the first qualification to becoming a God's favored.

Enlightenment was a form of personal insight said to occur when a person surpassed one's limits.

There were only selected few in the empire who were enlightened, because numerous experiences and training were required to reach enlightenment.

Most of the 1st year students of the Freljord academy had yet to experience enlightenment.

Of course, there were exceptions like Zephyr or Babel von Agnus. They were enlightened at the age of 10 and 12, respectively.

An enlightened person would gain a special skill which they could use proficiently. The type and the power of the skill depended on the individual and it was still a mystery why or who bestowed the skills.

The humans just called it as god's blessing and received it gratefully.

As it was not a common occurrence even I was an unawakened in my previous life.

"... Is this that?"

According to my knowledge, the current phenomenon is close to awakening. But I wasn't sure if it was really enlightenment, after all I didn't do anything special.

Then something else came to my mind.

"The Artifact...."

The Mysterious Unknown artifact that I swallowed before my death.

The voice said something about the artifact so I was guessing that it was due to that.

The artifacts were still unexplored domain in the current era so thinking more about was nothing but waste of time, so analyzing the situation came first.

There was a projection in front me which showed a button with the writing of status.

=== <Status> ===

I hit the button and another projection came up.

It was bit different from what I saw before.

Maybe that's what it referred to as when it said status reset.

Whatever the case, I was quite shocked by seeing the so called status.

The first thing that caught my attention were the titles.

I could somewhat tell what the <Regressor> title meant but what shocked me was the next one.

<Apostle of the Forgotten God>

Apostle? Forgotten God? I knew nothing about what that meant or why that was there. I don't remember ever joining any religion or praying to a god in particular, so I really didn't have any clue as to what it was.

Anyway, the projection didn't seem to be able to communicate with me as it just showed the status and no matter what I did after that, it remained as is.

Reading through it, I noticed that my various stats like Strength, stamina, agility, etc. where evaluated in term of numbers.

The numbers also seemed close to accurate seeing that the magic(or mana level) which I just checked was closely similar to the shown value.

They were even divided into variable and Invariable, I could guess what it meant based on the name, but wasn't sure if it truly was what I thought it to be.

Nevertheless, there was bigger shock waiting for me.

Skills, abilities and techniques...

I don't know how or why they are divided into such but what surprised me was the contents in them.

<36 poisons of the poison Queen>

Rating - ✮✮✮

A skill that was learned directly from the poison queen.

Will grant the user with information about the method of production and proficient usage of the 36 poisons among the 72 ultimate poisons created by Poison Queen

Effect: Will give the knowledge about 37th to 72nd ultimate poisons!

︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼

"This....."

The skill in itself was normal, it wasn't a skill that was helpful in combats but a complete knowledge-related skill.

But I was surprised for another reason.

The 72 ultimate poisons, it was something that was invented by the poison Queen, my master who taught me the way to survive in my previous life.

"I do remember the concoction methods of the poisons, is the artifact creating skills based on memory?"

Due to my weak constitution, I couldn't learn about the remaining 36 poisons in my past life, even when my master, the poison queen was ready to teach me.

So, I was only aware of the production methods of the bottom 36 poisons.

And it seem like the mysterious artifact was creating skills based on my memories.

The Force of White fang proved my speculation.

︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻︻

<Force of the White Fang>

Rating - ✮

A technique that was created by an ancient tribe that lives in seclusion.

It was created while imitating the power and breathing of the white fang Fenrir. The true power of the technique is yet to be displayed as the host don't have deep understanding of the technique.

Effect: Slightly increase the power and agility behind the host's movements!

︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼︼

The artifact seemed like it could only reproduce whatever I remember or has in mind.

For example, I learned the force of white fang when I rescued a man from a local tribe of the Forest of Ashes.

It was during one of my forced mercenary missions, He taught me that as a way of repaying me.

Although he had good intentions, I didn't have enough talent to master the skill like the masters I am currently studying with and the skill ended up as such.

But still it was of great use to me in my past life.

Anyway, there was also the Trap formation skill which I used the most in my previous life and some of my most used weapon masteries, overall it felt like I was evaluating myself.

"That artifact....It seems to be more amazing than I thought...."

Now, I understand why a monster like that slaughter our whole mercenary group, it was to gain this artifact!

Even while not knowing it's abilities to full extent, just the fact that it was able to regress me into the past and was able to evaluate me based on my memories made it priceless.

"I shouldn't speak of this artifact carelessly in the future...."

Though I didn't even knew anything about it, I steeled my resolve to not to tell anyone about the artifact.
