Legend of the Rage God

Is this still earth?

Big Dipper World, Blazing Star Continent, Magical Beast Forest.

The moist air was warm and carried with it the sound of water running in the distance. Ancient trees blocked the sun like a giant umbrella. Only a few spots of sunlight could be seen on the wetland.

The Magical Beast Forest! It was one of the most dangerous places on the Blazing Star Continent but despite many dangers that Magical beast forest possesses, it also gives various opportunities to those who enter the forest. The Magical Beast Forest covered a large area, where the trees were too thick to let the sunlight in. The reason why it was called the Magical Beast Forest because of the highly dangerous and magnificent beast that resides in this forest.

The Magical Beast Forest was surrounded by the Snow Mountain Empire, the Thunder Titan Empire, the Golden Dragon Empire and various other small kingdoms. The Snow Mountain Empire was to the north of the forest, the Golden Dragon Empire in the south, and the Thunder Titan Empire in the west. Merchants from these countries had to pass through the Magical Beast Forest to trade.

Demon Beasts are classified in 10 levels after which they evolve and become Nightmare Beasts. Demon beasts always made their appearance in the Magical Beast Forest, some of which even reached the 6th or 7th level. As the trade caravans, soldiers, and warriors crossed the Magical Beast Forest now and then, they knew that high-level demon beasts only appear in special areas, and low-level ones were usually vagrants.

In general, trade caravans wouldn't come across high-level demon beasts as long as they travelled along their usual routes. Only soldiers and warriors, who often ventured into the beast-infested areas looking for fights, would easily come face to face with high-level demon beasts, and eventually suffered great losses.

Great risk yields great benefits. Once a soldier killed a demon beast of the 6th or 7th level, he would immediately obtain many crystal coins. Demon Beast above level 6 each had a monster core inside its body. This monster core was of great use to warriors, alchemists, and blacksmiths. Apart from the monster core, its fur, fangs, bones, flesh, and poison were all very valuable. The body of a high-grade demon beast was full of treasures.

This attracted bold soldiers and warriors to venture into the Magical Beast Forest. However, only a few people achieved their goals and gained some benefits. The majority of them underestimated the wisdom and strength of a demon beast and thus, paid for it with their lives.

Magical Beast Forest, Inner Region.

Somewhere around the boundary of the Inner Region of Magical Beast Forest, A boy could be seen lying in a dimly lit cave, covered in blood and tattered clothes.

Jaden woke up with a start. His head was throbbing in pain, as if it was filled with lead and it felt extremely heavy. Once the pain faded decreased slightly, he found himself in a dimly lit stone cave which was the size of a Tennis court. Piles of rocks were scattered all over the place.

"Where is this? Is this still earth?"

Jaden Shiba, 25 years old, was a successful businessman and Technology lover. His mother died early while giving birth to him, while his father, who was a Land Developer and a businessman, died of pancreatic cancer in the prime of his life. But, he had saved a fortune working his whole life. This left Jaden with such a large amount of wealth which he could never use in a lifetime.

He owned many things at an early age, which other people would only wish to have in their entire life. Jaden was very smart and intelligent for his age so to not live his life in grief he started emerged himself into study. At the age of 19 he started his company to pursue his passion for technology and games. With his advanced intelligence and skills he made his company one of the top rank companies in the world in just 3 years.

He wanted to change the life of other people and give that chance to improve in life, that’s what he thought when he started the A.I Chip program named VEX. But there were powerful people who didn’t want this so they planned to kill him and steal his technology, before it was available for the public. They wanted this technology for themselves.

The people who conspired against Jaden were successful in destroying the laboratory where the VEX was manufactured but they didn’t know that they were also unsuccessful because Jaden became the first person who had an A.I Chip installed in his brain and before dying he destroyed the VEX Technology.
