It was all a dream for me until I found somethin.. something unbelievable! The records I had written in my previous life, although altered; were still there! After I read the book I was sure that this is not a dream. The book only told about my war with the gods and a few more things but the name was surely mine. Lucifer Morningstar, the son of morning. Yep- that's me!
After a few more minutes of doubting my theory, I finally accepted reality and started living with my parents happily. Although I must say that due to my behavior in the first 4 years of my life, my parents are always worried about me. Well, it's my fault though...
My parents took me to a lot of hospitals and did countless tests but after a few months the doctors deduced that I just lack emotions a bit and thus my behaviour.
Since then I have read countless books to learn more about this world and also about the timeline. This world that I live in is the future and the gods I was familiar with have already all died. To not let the evolution of the world go in dismay, the gods gave humans an opportunity to evolve so that this race can be the next gods.
This opportunity was in the form of dimensional rift. They had allowed the humans to enter this rift and teleport to their realm. The realm of gods or also known as the god's realm.
As all the gods and angels were dead, the beasts took over the realm and are now the ones ruling the place. The gods gave us a chance to kill the creatures and evolve. When the humans first tried to kill the creatures, there were a lot of casualties. We humans who were once the ruling ones at the top of the food chain descended to the bottom.
It is because technology was useless. After countless months of hardship, some of the human's that worshipped gods obtained started obtaining their powers. Humans understood that upon worshiping the gods, you are bestowed upon by their blessings and every person obtains a different power depending on your affinity with it.

Lucy's P.O.V
It's been 6 years... Hufff- When Noah was first born, the doctors said that he lacks emotions and thus will always have trouble in expressing things. Although it's not a major illness but which mother would want her son to not be able to enjoy life? I and Alan went to many hospitals but we couldn't do anything. That was the first time I felt helpless, after all our family is one of the pillars of humanity and we have been trying to maintain peace in this world since centuries.
On year 7092,
When Rifts started opening in countless places over the world, humans heard a voice
" Listen Mortals! We gods are on the verge of extinction and to not let the world's balance be in dismay, we have decided to bestow upon you the chance to succeed us! As you tread upon our world, face the creatures of the god's realm and defeat them! Only by killing them will you evolve. "
Although the specifics were not said, we understood that after this day humans will not be the same.
After 70 years of researching and evolving, humans understood a lot of things.
It is not that we have to kill a creature and only then will we be able to evolve, when a beast dies, it leave a soul essence behind in the form of a crystal that when absorbed will evolve your physique and stats.
It's been a bit more than a century and our world has advanced a lot. Right now however only a few hundred thousand people were strong enough to live in the god's realm without worry of any dangers.
We also live in the god's realm instead of Earth as this is the only place with abundant beasts to hunt and the purest air to breath.

" Lucy, where is Noah? " a man asked as he entered the room.
" Well he's taking a shower right now, I guess it's time he would be coming out " I said
" That boy... Our whole family worships the god of fire and this boy never even likes to be in warm places... Well atleast he doesn't stay bathing the whole time or we would have to do something "
" It's not like I am obsessed with bathing, you know that right? dad. " a boy exclaimed as the door to the bathroom opened.
The boy was standing in front of the door with wet hair. He wore a black jeans, blue t shirt with a water drop design on it. The boy was 5'3 in height with a slim body and pale skin, his face was short with a bit of baby fat still visible. As he dried his hair with a clean towel, his black eyes turned warm at the sight of his parents.
The man had short red hair with a refined body, he wore a black robe with a red pants. The man's black eyes were as deep as the abyss itself as his gaze penetrates life itself. He was his father Alan.
Beside him was his mother, Lucy. She wore a black jumpsuit with golden lines around it as a design. she had long black hair and blue eyes. In contrast with the man beside her, she had a warm smile on her face as she gazed at his son.
Both the parents smiled warmly at the sight of their children,
" Noah, our ancestor has summoned us and are now waiting in the hall. He wants to meet you and also talk about some important matters... come on. " Alan said
" Ok father, it's been a long time since he has come to meet us though. I haven't heard about the other family members either, is something wrong father? " Asked Noah with a genuine worry on his face.
" Well it's just that they are busy, you don't need to concern yourself with this. Let's go now, shall we? "
