Chapitre 2: Birth of Chi Family and Black Rose

The fragments scattered across the entire earth, causing a cataclysmic change. Powerful beasts vanished, leaving behind mere myths, while only ordinary wild and domestic animals managed to survive.

However, these fragments absorbed the essence of the vanished creatures, becoming imbued with their extraordinary powers. Remarkably, humans endured the upheaval. In regions where these fragments fell, the magical energies seeped into the bodies of the inhabitants, granting them newfound abilities and altering the course of humanity forever.

In the wake of the magic-infused cataclysm, those who harnessed the mystical energies underwent a profound transformation, embodying the essence of the beasts whose powers the fragments had absorbed. These beings possessed the remarkable ability to shift between beast and human forms, a characteristic intrinsic to their magical nature.

Individuals who absorbed the essence of ice, water, and wind from the fragments became the awe-inspiring Magical Ice Dragons. Those attuned to the magic of fire and wind transformed into majestic Magical Phoenixes. The harmonious blend of earth, wind, and water magic gave rise to the regal Magical Griffins. Those imbued with light, wind, and earth powers embodied the noble spirit of the Magical White Wolves.

Remarkably, these magical beings inherited human powers as well, granting them the extraordinary ability to adapt to diverse environments. For instance, creatures with fire magic thrived in scorching heat but could endure cold temperatures for brief periods if necessary. The same adaptability applied to those endowed with ice magic.

However, the world plunged into a relentless conflict as the magical beasts engaged in fierce battles amongst themselves and sometimes clashed with remaining humans. This turmoil was exacerbated by the malevolent magic that seeped into the fragments. Without power, humans stood defenseless against these formidable creatures. Amidst the chaos, a courageous family emerged, its members wielding unique magical abilities that enabled them to stand against the magical beasts and restore peace to the shattered world.

Despite the chaos that enveloped the world, this exceptional family held a unique perspective. They found beauty in the magical beasts and harbored no desire for war, choosing instead to appreciate the creatures for the wonders they were. Their hearts were woven with the threads of peace and curiosity, leading them down paths of exploration, invention, and travel. This family was a beacon of tranquility in a world gripped by strife—a group of nature enthusiasts whose love for the environment knew no bounds. Their philosophy was simple: they would never meddle in the affairs of others.

Curiously, when the magic vanished from the rest of humanity, this family was untouched by the loss. They alone retained their mystical powers. Even the magical beasts sensed their peaceful intentions and responded with friendship, forging a unique bond that set them apart from the conflicts consuming the world.

When the original disc fragmented, giving rise to magical creatures, a smaller fragment, containing all magical elements and the essence of every beast, found its resting place in a secluded cave. Remarkably potent, it eventually split in two: a smaller piece soared through the air, landing amidst the humble abode of a family deep within the forest. This fortuitous event bestowed upon them extraordinary powers, setting them apart from their fellow humans.

The larger portion of the fragment transformed into a bewitching black rose within the mystical depths of the cave.

As this gifted family embarked on their journeys, they became acutely aware of the destructive conflict between humans and magical beasts. They recognized that if this discord persisted, the unparalleled beauty of nature would be marred, motivating them to seek a resolution and restore harmony to the world.

Afterward, the family embarked on a journey across diverse corners of the world, engaging in heartfelt conversations with both humans and magical beasts about the detrimental impact of their conflicts on nature. Their words struck a chord. Humans, now powerless, had no choice but to listen. The magical beasts, too, sensed a familiar and comforting aura from the family, leading them to agree to the plea for peace. Moreover, the incessant battles among magical beasts had taken a toll, leaving them desperate for respite.

In the end, a historic peace agreement was forged. According to its terms, an understanding blossomed between these species. They vowed never to engage in combat again. The magical beasts agreed to assume their human forms only when in the company of other humans, finding solace in their shared presence. Conversely, they would transform back into their original selves when away from human territories. As for humans, a pact was made: they would no longer hunt these magical beings, allowing both species to coexist harmoniously in the embrace of nature.

The heroic family that saved the world hailed from the ancient land of magic, China. Feeling a deep connection to their homeland, they returned, and their noble deeds resonated across the kingdoms of the world. In honor of their role in restoring peace to Earth, different kingdoms named them 'Chi,' a name that became synonymous with harmony. The Chi family transformed into legends, revered by all, especially the magical beasts who regarded them as their rightful rulers.

Following their return, the Continent of Ice, now known as Antarctica, became the realm of the Magical Ice Dragons. The scorching lands of the Continent of Fire, present-day Arab, were claimed by the resplendent Magical Phoenixes. The lush Land of Nature, modern-day South America, became the haven of the majestic Magical Griffins. Meanwhile, the Land of Magic, China, stood as the revered domain of the Chi family and the enchanting Magical White Wolves.

The magical beings shared a common trait: a lifespan of 150 years, marking their natural limit. In the southeastern waters, a mystical island brimming with magical resources emerged, nestled close to present-day Australia. Once a site for human rituals during the age of magic, it now lay beyond human reach, accessible only to the members of the Chi family who ruled over the magical beasts. This island served as a sanctuary, where the leaders of magical beasts convened with the Chi family ruler, discussing their concerns and resolving issues that arose in their extraordinary realm.

After years of peace, rumors of a mysterious black rose hidden within the cave began to circulate. Anyone attempting to touch it found their hands scorched, and the tale of the demonic rose spread far and wide. Brave souls ventured to claim it, only to suffer burns, fatal injuries, or be forcefully expelled from the cave due to an unseen power surrounding the rose.

Over time, a belief emerged that the rose was sacred, a guardian watching over them. Pilgrims flocked to the cave, bearing offerings and prayers, yet their efforts only met with greater misery.

One day, the ruler of the Chi family, having heard the legends, decided to investigate. He entered the cave cautiously, well aware of the fate befalling those who touched the rose. As he approached, he steeled himself against its power. Surprisingly, as he extended his finger toward the rose, a great spark ignited, heralding a moment of profound significance.
