**Akashic Record of the Year 001**
In the year 001, humanity began its struggle for survival, lacking any significant power and relying solely on their willpower and basic survival skills. During this era, humans were merely prey for the aggressive animals and parasites that dominated their world. With no knowledge of martial arts, they were defenseless, constantly battling to survive.
One day, however, a man decided to venture into the wild.
On the first day of his journey, he wandered through a vast forest comparable in size to a small country. He did not stop his exploration, continuing for an entire month. The man was searching for something unknown to his fellow villagers. As the days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, his family and the villagers grew increasingly worried but still held onto hope for his return.
After ten years, the man finally returned, unscathed and mentally sound. His only words were, "I found it... I FOUND IT!!! I FOUND THE GOLDEN FRUIT!!"
From that day forward, he transformed his village, protecting it from wild animals and parasites. His discovery and subsequent actions led to the rebuilding and thriving of his country.
**[Philippines] Year 5559**
In the year 5559, the world is characterized by advanced technology, AI, transportation, and even flying islands. Every country possesses its own GOD—the first person from that nation who discovered the golden fruit.
There are 195 countries in total, each with its own god. However, these gods disappeared in the year 666, coinciding with the rise of human technology.
Despite the advancements and the happiness found in this era, the quest for the golden fruit—believed to grant immortality—has ignited wars between nations. Even I, "Zero," am driven by the desire to find the Golden Fruit!
