The world has been blessed by the gods.
A strange energy has covered the whole planet and is nourishing its beings, making them stronger.
The life energy that enriches everything in the world, some call it magic energy, some Maya, but everyone agrees on a single name.
A name that a god has given it: E.V.E
EVE is an energy that can be harnessed by living beings and has an infinite number of uses: combat, quality of life, transportation, brewing, etc.
However, with EVE also came a barbarian race: demons.
A race that pillages and kills everything that stands in their way.
The portal that leads to one of their planets opened and lets out a never-ending wave of demon soldiers.
However, the beings on the planet weren't afraid, they led the way into battle and managed to fend off the army.
Some individuals differentiated from the crowds: A sword saint, a bow wielder that doesn't miss any shot, a polearm master, and a legendary magician.
These 4 were the ones who built the bases of what we call today classes.
With flawless control over EVE and peerless techniques, they managed to impress the gods and ascend to living deities.
Each one has earned a corner of the world to rule and protect.
When the demons realized that the chances of conquering the world were slim, they called upon their gods.
The gods answered and called upon help from another world.
"And this is where you come to the place."
"....."
".....FUCK YEAHHH"
"AHEM! I mean, I am honored to receive such a duty"
The angel remained in place and didn't continue uttering a single word.
After 1 minute, the being made of light seemed to awaken and looked back toward the man.
"The body that you will receive will be a specially made vessel to make sure you can defeat the orthodox gods and take control of their worlds."
"I have to inform you that this is the first time that our gods gift us such a useful soldier, so we put all of our hope onto you, comrade."
"No, no, it is my pleasure to be able to help someone in times of need."
"Then I wish you good luck upon your journey"
Said the angel before waving its hand and making the man pass out.

On a hill lay a mother holding a baby, the child had a mesmerizing presence.
His face had porcelain skin and his eyes reflected the Prussian blue ocean in the distance.
For a mother to have such a beautiful child is nothing more than a dream.
However, to her dismay, the gods had a different fate for her.
As soon as his skin felt the sunshine it started burning, his cerulean eyes exploded in a pool of blood and his voice started breaking as soon as he started screaming.
It was as if the whole world was angry at this child for being born.
Uselessly tried the mother to stop the danger as the fire also started burning her.
...........
6 years after that tragedy and everyone has already forgotten it.
Not that many knew of it in the first place.
Those who knew were either bribed or killed to keep silent about the situation.
Inside a deep and tall forest stood a mansion, and in that mansion lived a boy.
He was wearing a shirt and shorts, on his feet were sandals, and on his head sat a cap.
His skin looked weird, almost artificial.
His face was emotionless and his eyes lifeless, however, a strange glow seemed to burn deep in them.
He was reading a book.
A book about energy known throughout the world by everyone.
His name was Kizu.
"It looks like my fate was not as I predicted"
The child closed the book and lifted himself off the floor.
"Who would have thought I would suffer this much because some gods confused me with a demon reincarnation."
"They said that the demon gods summoned a soul from another universe to aid them in conquering this world"
"And they confused me with him because I am coming from the same place"
The child walked towards his bed and lay there, with eyes looking at the ceiling.
"For this reason, I am forced to live with this mangled and burned body, till the day I die"
The eyes lost their glow and the boy became lost in the world of dreams, or nightmares.
........
Meanwhile, inside a scorching dimension, inside a castle laughed a young boy that was fed delicacies every day.
A carefree life where his only duty is to become stronger and defeat more enemies.
"Hahaha, hahaha, when I get older I will be able to enjoy beauties from all over the world and take trips to all sorts of places, I can't wait to get into that planet and kill as many people as possible"
The child continued laughing as if the best joke was told.
"In my previous life my family, my friends, everyone looked at me in disgust only because I wanted to live a carefree life, but here, here I can do whatever I want!"
..........
The time came and passed and 10 years went by
A group of young adults went inside a massive church.
The walls were painted with depictions featuring the 4 heroes defeating the demons, with a single statue in the center, massive and white enough to be seen from everywhere.
The strongest magician in history.
Her majesty looks towards the entrance with intimidating eyes as if the statue is constantly protecting its believers from danger.
"Look, it's that guy, with the weird artificial skin."
"Yeah, I noticed too, why is he here every time we come to her majesty's church?"
"Shouldn't weirdos go to a weird church, like the sword saints?"
The one who they were referring to was a 16-year-old who was kneeling and praying to an altar inside the church, their remarks didn't look to even reach him as his focus was only on his prayers.
His face was covered with a white mask without any features.
His hands on his thighs and head bowed down.
...
After a while the boy moved, he stiffly lifted himself and went towards the entrance.
While he was exiting the church, the whole world stopped moving and a window appeared in front of his face.
-Do you wish to accept the system, agreeing will automatically make you a pawn.-
After a not-so-long thought process, the boy chose to refuse.
The "NO" button glitched and turned to "YES".
-Thank you for accepting the offer, and we wish you a happy game-
After the window closed, the boy was left standing at the entrance.
Without hesitation, he resumed his walking pace while muttering
"Predictable"
