Chapter 7 : System's update and history of the Continent

"Ding!! , host present body can not handle the System's power , System entering dormant mode ".

"Ding!! , system would be upgraded after exiting the dormant mode, time duration - six years. "

Just when Mark white ( Jian lin ) was born, system gave him an another prompt stating her dormancy, for a period of six years. Since there was nothing much to do, during this period mark white ( Jian lin ) decided to learn about this world, and their customs to increase his knowledge and adapt himself to this new world.

From a old picture book in the shelf, Mark had learned about the continent where he was reborn.

This continent was divided into 8 parts each ruled by different races. He was in the part which was particularly a human dominant place, where other races if found could be suppressed. The continent was divided into many lands by territories. The land of darkness, The land of Elves, The Human domain, The land of Dwarfs, The land of Giant's, The grand forest of beastmen, The Sea men's domain and other Minor races hidden within theirs lands seeking their refuge.

The Demon's in land of darkness, the Elves in land of floating islands, the Beastmen in the eternal forest which was vast, Sea men that lives inside the ocean and larger islands, Humans and their settlements in the Central planes, Dwarf's that live in gigantic flying fortresses, the giants in the underworld, a land has hidden millions of miles underneath the land, and several minor races that live under the protection of elves, leading a safe life. Eventhough the parts were ruled by seperate races all these kingdoms were generous enough to house other races, for their patronage.

The history of this continent starts around hundreds of thousands years ago , when races were scattered and wars were waged on daily basis, many races were being wiped out from the face of land every day.

The land turned chaotic during the first great war between the major races of the Giant race and the demon race took place at domain if gaints. This massive battle had shook the very foundation of the entire continent. The ripples of the battle between them had also dragged the even race and beastmen race into this mess. The human race, being one among the weakest race during that period were captured as slaves or livestocks to be reared by the demons to work under them, in coal mines for their refineries or reserve food during emergencies in long battles.

This tyranny continued for hundreds of years, with humans being enslaved by the demons. Until one fortunate day, a small scale mutiny was created by a young boy.

He had a young and beautiful sister, who was fancied by a young demon noble, when he had coincidentally glanced over her body.

She was openly kidnapped by that demons subordinates and was sent to his palace for his own pleasures. His family was killed by them on spot for resisting against this attrocity. By that time he was from his home, mining to earn money for his poor family to feed them.

His father was a strong warrior who earned respect from many, but had became a disabled person when his legs were crippled, in rescuing people from a coal mine collapse where he was stationed to ward off minsters from entering in. His mother was a regular women, who had accidentally unlocked her mana and was capable of performing healing magic. But had gotten sick from over using her mana to heal people, which ultimately leaded her to mana defecit and her mage root being destroyed as there was resources to replenish her. Because of this she was unable to heal her husband but to rely on her poor son who had to earn money for them to survive with the burden of carrying a beautiful daughter, the life they leaded was already considered to be miserable.

Even tough he was weak, not able to unlock his mana, or become a physical warrior unlike his father, he did not want to stand still and pretend as if nothing had happened. Even tough he was a slave that could he treated worse than livestock at times by their masters, he did not want to succumb to this slavery and accept his fate. He didn't want his family to remain unavenged, seed of vengeance had been sowed in his heart, he wanted revenge, he wanted to bleed his family murders to death.

Mana which was totally a concept that was foreign to him, which he had wished to unlock before had started surging his body. Tremendous pressure was exerted over his body and he was at the brink of collapse, he knew that the moment he collapsed would be the moment he die. The cells in his body started to break open and reconstruct back at the same time. Each of his cells in the body had undergone a drastic change and his body started to become strong as moments passed. This process took less than a minute which had gathered everyone's attention. Many demons who arrived at the place we're terrified by seeing the waves of mana emitted from his body, they tried all their means possible to stop this process. As they did not wish for a slave to become strong, strong enough to break theirs slavers seal and butcher it's master like chickens.

But all their attempts had up for nothing. Golden showers of mana had descended from the sky protecting the young boys body by making several whirls around him, as if a giant tornado descended unto the earth to bring massive destruction.

That day the humans had witnessed the birth of a hero. A hero who did not have an excellent weapon, he took his mining shovel as his weapon which was quite mediocre. Filled with rage and hatred against demons race he started his killing spree.

He killed the demon who were directly involved in murdering his parents, slowly by l

picking up on one after the other, dismembering them like a butcherer who chops the meat with his knife on a wooden board. His whole body was drenched in blood of his enemies. He was like a devil incarnation, who want an nothing but to start out a slaughter.

Standing on top the bloody mountain made up demon corpses by that day, he pledged under the heavens for the rest of the slaves to witness that " Until the last drop of blood i had, which I could bleed, i would not stop at just fighting them. I swore under the heavens and my fellow free humans to bear witness that, I will fight against demons until I make a safe heaven for humanity, which is free from the rotten hands of demons. " He also added that "My will shall never fade or die until I stand, for those who wish to follow my lead, though may not make fame nor money, but this child promises that they can avenge their families, their friends and relatives that were humiliated or killed or raped or even devoured by those demons. And make a meaning for their sacrifices they had suffered. "

That young man speech soon inspired many people around him, they also did not wish to live out the rest of their days in fear, and wanted a change. They had seen a light of hope in him and wished to follow him. A small army made by loose slaves were made which had soon branded other humans under one banner. As he matured he had destroyed many other such demon territories and made the first kingdom under the heaven solely belonging to humanity. That same kingdom had later stretched its boundary throughout the central planes which was later called the Grand imperial dynasty of Norsus, named after him, and the present domain of humans only amount to half of the previous grand dynasty in size.

Even through all the cumulative efforts, he made against them, demons were still the top in the food chain. They were still a big threat and menace to Norsus. His fame and glory had reached through out the continent like a wild fire, using the personal grudges of other races as a base he formed an alliance with Elves, Giant's, Dwarf's and Beastmen and lead to an great expedition, which was also called the second great war. The demon territory was reduced to half, Their personnel were killed in larger numbers, their former dominance but sadly norsus had to die in the decisive battle against the top demon emperor that time, dragging him to hell along with him. Norsus had many children, but not even a one among them had what it took to succeed him.

His family was over thrown by rebels, but the land was soon partitioned into thousands of pieces, since each party had their own claims and interests. Since they did not have the strength to completely govern over such vast lands as norsus was once able to do, partitioning was the only thing they could do at the moment to survive.

Though demon race was weakened in Second Great War. They still had the power to wipe out the humans that were not completely unified and had been fighting among themselves.

Soveraiz was a poor boy born into a farmers family, his parents died of sickness leaving behind his aunt who was burdened to raise him as his parent, he liked to spend time with his aunt who tells him about stories of her adventures. When ever she founds some time or decides to take a break, she came back to soveraiz to play with him .

But one day when she came back, the village was set on fire, houses were burning, trees were falling apart, demons had attacked their village, people were being eaten by them alive. She immediately made her way to their place and reached home, hid him inside the closet and used herself a bait to lure the demons away from him. Demons caught her but didn't kill her immediately. She was used by demons for pleasure till she was bleed to die. Seeing her aunt who's being toyed by demons, he wanted to cry, he wants to shout out loud to stop them, he wanted to brutally murder the demons, but he can't. He who had no strength to fight them had started hated everything, hated himself for being poor, hated himself for being weak, hated himself for not able to protect his only family, he only had one thing in his mind, revenge! His vision was blackened he felt strange surge of energy gushing out from within his body he felt terrible pain and fallen unconscious, he had not remember the events that happened after he was in that state, when he was left unconscious, but when he had finally opened his eyes he saw blood, it did not belonged to his nor from the villagers. It was originated from demons they were dismembered , their heads were crushed to pieces, their bodies were smashed and pierced open. He could fell that there was some thing wrong with his bidy, a black colour aura was extruding from him, he felt power, he felt that he can crush any thing under the heaven within his feet, he can now use mana and also kill demons. He was both happy and sad the same time, as he had taken revenge for his aunt but had became a real orphan without a family.

That Soveraiz, by the time he became an adult, he had adventured into demons territories and had killed thousands of demon lord and Kings which he had lost their count. And was worshipped the next norsus by humans. He wanted to fulfill his aunt's long cherished wish that everyone can do adventure and enjoy adventuring with their families or friends.

So he created the so called the Adventures Guild, that many people joined under his leadership

Together with other races he formed the Adventures guild in their own domains and nearly unified the continent against the demons and made an force that can repel the demons even after his absence, that is after his death, as no man can defy nature to live like a immortal.

The similarities and differences between Soveraiz and Norsus was that both had nearly same type of Mana's unlocked, a variant type which awakens completely under utter despair and hate for everything. But norsus took all the burden upon his shoulders where as soveraiz had not so, relied equally on others.

The kingdom in which his new reincarnation took place was called ( Dragon Heart kingdom ), under the control of Dragon heart family as the kings. Their ancestors established the state after killing a high rank dragon that was residing in that location, not a part of old partitioned land of norsus. They have dragon bloodline probably originated from consuming that dragon heart which had yielded a bloodline for their generations, which had made their body impenetrable to any physical damages ." Oh a strong bloodline indeed." Mark White ( Jian lin) exclaimed in his heart.

Awakening, a process by which a person could utilize mana. Each child at an age of six undergoes awakening of their Mana Core at the churchs. In few months he was also going to have his awakening, everyone were exited to see the miraculous child who started to walk, talk and even read at an early stage of his life. Even several dukes were startled about his activities and wanted to witness him in awakening.

Mark White's mother was pregnant again and delivered twins they were his younger siblings.

Six months later.

Just before Mark Whites awakening was about to take place many nobles, stopped all their work to see this child's awakening, fearing that they may miss out an event that may very well be recorded in annals of their land.

His system suddenly prompted a message after a long time.
