In a certain year, a massive change occurred worldwide. Strange spatial overlapping phenomena took place across the globe, where fantasy worlds akin to those in games and novels gradually merged with reality, causing a stark contrast between the two. Different otherworldly and local spaces fused together in various areas, forming isolated realms that were cut off from the outside world.
Regions all over the world were separated, and this merging also led to large-scale movement and violent compression of tectonic plates, causing various natural disasters and creating apocalyptic scenes worldwide. Moreover, strange creatures, unlike any existing organisms in the world, appeared in large numbers, some powerful and others weak. Among them were creatures with special magical powers, resembling monsters in games and novels.
People worldwide not only had to adapt to the drastically changing living environment after the merging but also had to face the threat of countless monsters. In the process of battling with the monsters, some people discovered that they had awakened strange powers, becoming stronger and surpassing their previous physical abilities. They could also see in their minds something like a character panel in games, indicating their own profession and skills.
As more and more of these events occurred, people realized and concluded that they could awaken various professions and corresponding powers when doing different things. Those who fought with monsters would awaken the profession of a warrior, while those who bandaged others and cured people would awaken the profession of a priest. Some who meditated on flames, water flows, or frost awakened the profession of a mage and could use the corresponding elemental powers.
Along with the development of their powers, through more battles, healing more people, more meditation, and the use of magic, people would gain more skills, and their professions would be advanced. Those who had experienced three advancements could also awaken a second profession. In other words, professions are divided into first, second, and third orders, and when advancing to the fourth order, one can awaken a second profession. The professions and skills that people awaken in different realms may vary, but the methods of advancement and growth of power after advancement are the same.
After a few years of time, people gradually adapted to the changed world, but by then, the world's population had dwindled to only about twenty percent.
