Chapter 1: Primordial Dimensions
[Author's note: If you don't like Info-dumps, skip 3/4 of the chapter <3]
"Finally," Shane thought as he looked at the gigantic black-colored ring that had hundreds of mysterious runes inscribed on it.
They shone brightly in a feeble blue hue, as desire gleamed in his eyes.
Within the ring, one could see a semi-translucent liquid swirling around vigorously.
It was one of the few thousand [Dimension Portals] that had changed everything on the blue planet called Igra more than 200 years ago.
One day, the whole planet suddenly shook with a tremendous force.
This led to the emergence of several natural disasters, causing earthquakes, tsunamis, and similar catastrophes that killed millions of humans within seconds.
However, this was not the most important thing that had happened.
The space around the planet was torn apart, revealing an endless abyss.
Within the torn space, these Dimension Portals descended to the ground without any warning as they activated themselves.
Billions of humans watched the horror unfold with shocked and dumbfounded expressions.
Many humans had feared that monsters and beasts would emerge from these Portals, as it was written within novels and fairy tales they had read, but nothing like that had happened.
Few hours later, the semi-translucent liquid began to attract weak-willed humans.
It forced them to follow their instincts, as they gave in to their curiosity that overwhelmed their anxiety.
After the first human being had dared to step through the Dimensional Portal, an exultant and gentle female voice could be heard inside everyone's mind.
[Welcome 'Humans' from planet "DBASDF2245". We appreciate you joining the "Conquest". It's an honor to witness a new race participate and we'd like each of your brethren to join us.]
The unexpected voice confused everyone.
They waited for something to happen while holding their breath in anxiety.
Time seemed to slow down and there was a pin-drop silence enveloping the entire planet as everyone felt like they were completely paralyzed, anxious for the voice to dissipate, hoping that they would wake up from a nightmarish dream.
It was as if the planet had come to a standstill when everything had gone eerily silent. Alas, humanity's feeble ray of hope was blown to smithereens when a mechanical voice was issued.
[Initiate 'World protection mechanism→99D:23H:59M:59S remaining.]
After the mechanical voice was issued, the female voice explained an important consequence to the actions taken henceforth that changed the old world everyone once knew...
[As per law, we have granted a world protection program for 100 days to this planet. After completion of the said 100 days, this world can be conquered by all kinds of races, without any discrimination.
To protect your loved ones, family, and more importantly, yourself, you have to become stronger.
The only way to accomplish this is to follow your brave brethren into the Primordial Dimension, where death and treasures are infinitely close and intertwined with each other.]
The female voice seemed to have finished her speech and some weak-willed humans began to collapse on the spot.
Only a few slightly stronger-willed humans felt dizzy, overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information resounding in their heads.
There were only a few, relatively calm humans who could barely hold themselves together, trying to comprehend what had happened.
Suddenly, the exultant female voice returned.
[Oh... I forgot something. Inside the Primordial world, you can achieve everything you wish for, it doesn't matter how far-fetched your desire is, EVERYTHING is possible!!..you can even purchase an extension to the world protection program!!]
After that, the voice was never heard again, and humanity began its conquest within the Primordial Dimension.
More than 200 years have passed since then and humanity underwent a drastic and revolutionary change.
Initially, humanity had panicked, while still doubting the female voice within their heads, treating it as an illusion.
Ignoring the world protection countdown and the threats lurking within the Dimensional Portal, some humans still ventured inside the Primordial dimension to receive benefits beyond their wildest imaginations.
Achieving the strength of a few tons? Easy!
Manipulating the laws of nature? No problem!
Extending one's lifespan? Cultivate!
But, the Primordial Dimension was a double-edged sword and more and more humans died at the hands of the powerful beings which they encountered within these dimensions.
These casualties were still not enough for humanity to understand the severity of the threat looming over them, and 100 days passed.
This eventually created the first Disaster on Igra as the world protection program dissipated into thin air.
All kinds of beasts began to invade Igra, including Lizard-man, Earth dragons, Goblins, Orcs, Lamia's, behemoths, and many more frightful existences as the world's protections collapsed.
Humanity almost lost a quarter of its population within the first few weeks.
Only a bunch of humans were able to defend themselves against these existences, because they had ventured into the Primordial Dimension, thereby increasing their strength.
Under the guidance of a single powerful individual, humanity established the Stella-Federation, named after their leader, John Stella.
With humanity's high population, in addition to some powerful individuals that ventured deeper into the Primordial Dimensions, they barely managed to purchase a world protection extension in order to close the direct link between Igra and other races' planets.
It was almost impossible to defeat the most terrifying existences that invaded Igra, and even with humanity's wits, cruelty and a large populace, they were barely able to fight them head-on.
After 200 years, Igra was almost cleansed of the invading beasts, with a few particular exceptions.
Unfortunately, this didn't mean that there were no dangers threatening humanity.
There were signs of foreign races circling the adjacent stellar system, causing humanity to walk on eggshells every day.
Only the existence of the Primordial Dimension seemed to be a tiny ray of hope.
Mankind could break through their shackles, reaching higher realms that were previously impossible to access.
And, this was mainly because of the existence of the [System] provided by the Primordial Dimension, with its undiscriminating support to every living being.
Shane, however, didn't really care about the history of Igra and there was only a single reason for him to be thankful for the planet's existence.
He, Shane Suro, was a transmigrator, who had barely begun to work as a young veterinarian on earth.
While on a trip to the savanna as a gift to himself, he was shot by a poacher, when he had been busy tending to the wounds of a severely injured white rhino.
Shane had always had a penchant for animals and the animals seemed to reciprocate his love. His former life had been quiet and peaceful.
Rather than seeing him as prey, one could say that animals used to approach him for companionship since he had been young.
He used to play with wild animals in the forest, close to his house instead of going out with other kids and began to love all kinds of animals.
He learned early on that his "friends" were being hunted and injured all the time that channeled his decision to become a veterinarian.
And, with that in mind, he left the forest and became a model student along with some friends that shared his interests.
Advancing through classes was easy for him.
His intelligence and hard work saw him become one of the youngest veterinarians at the tender age of 19 years.
But what was the use of it? He had lost his life while trying to save an almost extinct animal…
It was a shame to have wasted his life like that and Shane´s last breaths were filled with regret.
He would have never imagined dying like this...without having lived for long enough to enjoy his life to the fullest.
But, who would have thought that he would find himself in a different world?
And, as a recently born baby at that!!
Was it fate or someone else's doing that had brought him to a foreign world filled with death and chaos?
