Prologue Part - 2: War of Worlds! The New Era of Mythic Power!

*[Authors Note:- Guys this part is optional, it is to give a basic brief on the World Setting. If you want to Continue Reading Main Story you can Skip to the Next Chapter]*

A Planet crushed into Atoms, without any regard for Life - Gone Just Like That!

This was not uncommon in an era of Interstellar War between various races and conflicts within those races as well, Billions could be massacred but the leading Factions would not care, rather they could not-

Caring about the lives of the common was a weakness and every weakness would give the Opposing Galactic Faction an edge- leverage!

The Very Survival of their Races depended on the one thing that defined the Current Era- the Higher Dimensional Energy- Also Called Mythic Power.

It all began when Science and Magic collided-literally, In the human calendar year 2050 A.D Humanity was broken down to bits- Governments in constant struggle with Corrupt Global Corporations and with themselves for securing the most crucial Resource for Survival- Water.

The Wars and the Schemes for the critical resources were wearing down on the already poverty-stricken populace(70%), Chaos Reigned and The very meaning of life was becoming Lost.

It was then, A coalition of Global Powers excavated Antarctica for fresh Water Reserves, this was a monumental task of the utmost importance, They would send teams of Researchers to investigate the Main Site and start planning on further actions from there. It was initially successful but something unexpected happened...

While they excavated the ice and managed to reach the water- Glowing Runes across Antarctica appeared and were Shattered. Then all of a sudden Ancient Mega Temple Complex slowly elevated from the water.

What they saw blew their minds. It was of unknown age(They were unable to carbon date anything within a mile of the Temple- the devices would Fizzle out). The Temple Complex had a more unified Architectural Style- As each building represented each Modern Religion or Rather Culture and History.

But what was more anomalous was that buildings were centered all around a Circular Ancient mural that depicted every interpretation of GOD known to modern Humanity and at its center lay a pulsing object- a Cube engraved with glowing blue runes.

The Coalition was incredibly stumped at this discovery and decided to jointly extract the cube to a common research institution to avoid any potential conflicts among its Partners. But just as they touched the cube, it exploded into a figure of light and a deep robotic feminine voice seeped into Every Living Being on the Planet alive.

"To all Sentient Races of this world, Heed my Warning for in a Year Planet Earth will face the Annihilation Trials, Your world will face Foes that are impervious to any current weapon of Your Era and they will stop at nothing to Decimate this world and pull your Race into Eternal Sleep- as they did before -

However all is not lost, I leave you with the means to combat this threat! Remember Mythic Power can only be Fought With Mythic Power, All else shall Fail!"

With that, the figure disappeared while leaving behind a data drive that contained knowledge exceeding any known scientific Theories and Formulae. It also contained a strange sutra about the Cultivation and Evolution of the Human Body.

Somehow the being had also translated every word in the data drive to be easily understood by the Humans.

The Entire world was shaken after this and Governments immediately tried to shut this matter up But all space agencies announced that they had discovered a massive Ship Like construct arriving out of Mars Orbit and seemed to be surrounded by a massive energy shield.

It then within an hour destroyed all ships with human presence throughout the Solar System in just an hour. The construct just jumped through space and arrived on the Moon which was currently being mined for Helium and water crystals.

The moon Base was armed with nukes and various advanced defense systems and immediately targeted the construct, which was unfazed by the attacks and did not even suffer a scratch. The construct obliterated the entire moon base with an unknown Blue Energy Pulse!

It then landed on the ashes of the former Base and went dormant, as if waiting for a signal.

The chilling set of events only increased the authenticity of the that strange figure's Warning and Governments and Private establishments tried to communicate with that Ship construct, but they only received a response,

"Duration until Annihilation trial 350 days"

Riots had broken out across the world, some smaller `Governments sank into Anarchy! The situation was getting worse by the minute and some cults had even sprung up to cause even more chaos!

Some even tried to escape Earth but the dormant construct would light up and blast any ship that tried to leave the Earth's orbit. It was determined to make Earth the final resting place of all humans.

This had Officially set Everyone into Panic mode and the Governments had no choice but to agree to form a new Human Federation to prepare for the upcoming war. Everyone had to join in. There was no other way...

Humans tried to study every piece of knowledge from the data drive and attempted to make use of the sutra Given, But they were stumped when trying to make sense of mythic power- it was involving metaphysics, something most had dismissed.

Many hidden Experts and Masters from all over came out of hiding and tried to help the Government make sense of the Given Sutra and runes as given in the data Drive. Although this power was like internal strength or chakra or even spirit qi - it was not that. There seemed to be a final mental barrier preventing them from truly activating the basic mnemonics of the sutra and learning it.

On the other hand, runes were easier to execute using whatever technique they had but soon, they realized that while these new runes were more powerful, their consumption of energy was equally tyrannical, as they were meant to be used with the mysterious energy gathered from the sutra.

Soon the Deadline approached closer and closer, The Human Federation had managed to somehow incorporate the advanced weaponry, smithing, chemical synthesis techniques, and other foundational technologies present in the data drive. The sutra and runes had been disseminated to the public, to see if anyone could crack it but to no avail.

Then on the Final Day, the Construct beamed up and opened its hangar doors, revealing rows upon rows of both cybernetic and Biological monsters that humanity had only seen in myths. The war began and for the first 2 weeks, cities fell like dominoes- one after another, Nearly 5 Billion(out of 24 Billion) died.

Humanity fought back against these monsters, but they were too hard to penetrate, too hard to poison and some were even able to defy laws of physics, rendering conventional nukes useless. Every day Casualties would range in the millions just for defending a base. It seemed that Humanity was destined for death- until the birth of the Nine Heroes.

This war brought disaster but it also stirred varying emotions of the people, it allowed them to truly understand the Sutra - also known as Universal Energy Sutra, through their emotions and beliefs. The root of the Activating Sutra lay in oneself- it was understanding and affirming one's choices and personality to be drawn towards a specific Personality spectrum.

The Nine Heroes were all excellent geniuses in various fields, but were born with various issues and experienced certain events that made them align with their current personalities. What personality were they and what kind of people were they?

Well for this you can think of the eternal war in humanity which rages to till date- why is it fought? For Order? For Freedom? For Good? For Evil? The answer is all.

Yes for all of these reasons humans fought - either to liberate or to dominate, either to save or to kill- The list goes On- But fundamentally it boils down to these 5 characteristics- Law, Chaos, Good, Evil, and Neutral-

Each manifests in the human psyche- indirectly imprinting on to the soul- based on what they experience in every part of their lifetime.

In the most trying times- the true face of a human reveals itself and one is confronted with oneself.

It was but a step in the right direction, But the Nine exceptional heroes went beyond that, they not only affirmed themselves but managed to truly form the image of the Universe's path in their minds and it resonated with Power from Beyond.

The very Power these monsters were endowed with, they felt it as well, although it was only a small trace - it was enough to draw the line between a mortal and an Energy Warrior- as they were later called.

They drew mythic power from not just one Personality spectrum/ Alignment. They each drew from 9 unique alignments corresponding to their personality. They were:

Lawful Good Neutral Good Chaotic Good

Lawful Neutral Neutral Chaotic Neutral

Lawful Evil Neutral Evil Chaotic Evil

It strangely resembled DnD (Dungeons and Dragons) Game system, but in the grand scheme of things, it made sense!

The Nine Heroes started a Global Genocide against these monsters with their new mythic powers and finally brought hope to the Planet. Their powers were not only pure fantasy, they had affected all nine of them uniquely - both physical changes and mental changes were observed.

All the Nine heroes were observed and all of them showed incredible abilities that one could only find in Fiction - Like these:

Lawful Good - Heaven Priest and Knight abilities - Innate Light, Lightning, Blessing, and Flame attributed.

Neutral Good - Draconic Body Morphing and Sorcerer abilities - Innate Life Body and Mildly attributed towards all elements.

Chaotic Good - True Beast Rider and Bard abilities - Innate Nature, Star, Dream, and Sound attributed.

Chaotic Evil - Blood Berserker and Warlock abilities - Innate Blood, Lightning, Darkness and Flame attributed.

Neutral Evil - Undying Lich and Apocalypse Horsemen abilities - Innate Undeath Body, Soul, and Darkness attributed with lesser attributes towards other elements.

Lawful Evil - Hell Knight and Prisonmeister abilities - Innate Darkness, Perversion, Flame, and Seal attributed.

Neutral - Elemental Summoner and Scroll Savant abilities - Innate Soul Body, Samsara, Fate, Scroll, and Energy attributed.

Chaotic Neutral - All Summoner and Trickster abilities - Innate Chaos Body, Fate, Chaos Tarot, Luck, and Energy attributed.

Lawful Neutral - All Conjurer and Judge abilities - Innate Law Body, Fate, Truth Book, Space-Time, and Energy Attributed.

These were what they manifested as they grew stronger while killing those monsters. They did have some infighting but oddly enough they were able to get along together to save how many ever they could and continue the fight.

After 10 grueling years, they brought back humanity from the brink of extinction and finally slaughtered the last Monster. The construct then released a powerful spirit pulse across the Earth and a deep robotic voice sounded in the minds of all the surviving population.

"You have passed the Annihilation Trials! Your race is eligible to connect with the Grand Censor of Worlds! All members of Planet Earth shall be granted the Spirit attochip of the Milky Way Federation! Requesting Envoy of Outer Ring Sectors for Further Authorization!

-

-

-

Confirmed!- Human Race can proceed with Phase 2 Colonization! Remember!! You are not alone in this sector! You will face hundreds of other races who shall seek your extinction! May You tread the path of Mythic Power with us!"

The Human Race changed forever after this Announcement. The Nine Heroes split and set up their factions to take humanity in their direction. They too felt that the Mythic power came from not one but Nine Supreme Higher Dimensions and countless sub-dimensions that released weaker traces of it. Each path had its pros and cons, and they wanted to lead humanity on their chosen path.

But since the trial had considerably weakened the overall strength of the Human race, they decided not to fight internally, but only recruit those that dared to follow them of their own will respectively. They had an accord together to keep the peace going and so the Human Federation would not have to split apart anytime soon.

Thus began the start of a small Golden age where the Nine heroes taught their factions how to learn to cultivate mythic power and wield the abilities given. They then jointly cooperated to not only Defend the Home star system but also on expeditions and conquests.

Tales of their Legendary feats were immortalized! They fought tooth and nail with several races of the Outer Ring to fight for the survival of the Human race. Humanity united was the most fearsome Existence! - other races had observed!

The United Human Federation managed to not only colonize more than 50-star sectors with countless Systems and successfully proved themselves worthy of Phase 3 colonization which allowed them to enter the inner Galactic Ring and place a foothold there.

One could only imagine the rivers of blood flowing through these wars, but unfortunately or fortunately the human race could not afford to be soft-hearted with hostile races, for if they did stop colonizing, another race might colonize on their prospective Planets and turn on them - It was either Kill or Be Killed situation.

It all went well until they reached the inner Galactic ring where they saw truly extremely powerful races whose understanding and control of Mythic Power were even higher than theirs. But all these races followed one of the Nine Galactic Factions that ruled the Entire Galaxy from the Center.

As one progressed further in the Path of Mythic Power, their chosen path would soon have more and more differences from other Paths - An old Friend would soon turn distant and become the new Enemy of tomorrow, It was not in their hands, this was inevitable.

And So the Human Federation Split internally, although they did keep the appearance of remaining United, cracks soon appeared after 3000 years of cooperation. Each Faction soon broke off and joined their Respective Galactic Factions, any relationship they had before with the other Human Factions, had grown colder due to differences in ideology.

Thus this stalled any universal development of the Human Race, Although they did jointly protect the Human Race as Before, they also caused several civil wars as well.

The old 9 factions soon turned into 3 Empires,5 Associations, and 1 School. These civil wars led to the formation of countless star states in each star sector which followed any one of the New 9 Powers.

This event did weaken the Human race to such an extent that other Races of the Inner Ring had set their sights on the Star Sectors Occupied by the Human Race. A new never-ending conflict began. Now Divided, the Human Race nearly lost 13 Star Sectors to the Invading Races during the Sudden Invasions.

Billion were either enslaved or massacred- it was such a bloody affair that all 9 Powers came to a joint accord to never let this happen again. They soon realized that their foundations were weak and they needed to form strong alliances within the Inner ring no matter the PRICE!

For Powers under Good and most Neutral Galactic factions the Price for Alliances was a bit easier and fair but for under some Neutral and almost all Evil Galactic factions- Let's say the Price was very twisted.

People would be either sold as slaves, used as experiments, or even tossed into a nutrient processing unit, just to please those factions. Sometimes, they would just want to see the complete extermination of an entire planet just for fun and order their underlings to hunt the survivors.

Aavesh should have died, as fate willed but he did not instead, He was Reborn! - unknown to everyone, Not Even The Mythic Gods! Now, what will happen? Will fate Let it be ? or will it make his life even more miserable? Or Will this rebirth unintentionally or intentionally Trigger Cosmic Apocalypse? Who Knows... :)
