A World Reborn: Special 1
This is just a bit of a makeup for not having a chapter last week. Hope you guys enjoy!
Our story takes place in the year 2035, this however this takes place 15 years prior to where it all began.
In the year 2020, creatures surfaced from within their confinements of the earth. These creatures were given names such as monster or demon, the latter being much more correct as they announced themselves as such.
Around the world, each country's military did as much as they could to save lives, and purge these demons. Scientists gathered from all over to research and experiment for any sort of breakthrough or countermeasure to this blight.
Within the next year, the attacks by demons suddenly became more ferocious. Demons hailing names from the book of Solomon suddenly appeared. The most infamous one, Berith, laid waste to countless cities all over with his legions of demons.
For the next two years humanity was cut in half. It was then heaven answered the prayers of man sending their forces to intervene. Bloodshed continued, and betrayal amongst all three factions began to occur. Angels became fallen angels, demons introduced contracting with humans, and humans continued researching with live samples from both sides.
As the fifth year approached all factions suffered immense casualties and without any notice stopped their battles with one another. During this time, other events would occur. Gods and other mythological beings of different beliefs and cultures started to appear. Wastelands sudden became green, ocean currents wildly changed, creatures only seen in fairy tales also made their appearances.
As if they were needed to help restore some of the balance that was lost it still wasn't enough. With the appearances of such beings humans decided that making use of their powers would be beneficial in the long run. Similar contracts used by the demons were established with these supreme beings, if that didn't work capturing and subduing followed next. The discovery of mixed breeds also surfaced around this time.
During the next ten years until the present time followed the events of a group of three friends and a young boy with mysterious powers would change the world. Humans began adapting to such wild changes. They were able to access natural energies around them as well as the energies stored within.
This phenomenon was called "The Awakening", where humans would come to learn how to use and control mana, turning it into what's commonly known as magic. Beforehand magic was only possible through contracting, or rather unlocked through contracting.
Within this ten year time frame, demon attacks slowly started to rise. Berith appeared again, making one of the few human cities his own domain...
