Upon arriving infront of his washing mirror and looking at his handsome face with shimmering black hair and a similar pair of black eyes.

He Chuckled and thought, it will be sixteen years since I came to this strange world.

Yes, I am not a inhabitant of this world, I still remember my previous life. When I was just a game-streamer living my life as an Average person from a modern world would do. Playing games, addicted to internet, eating, sleeping. It was a boring life without much ambition.

My life took a turn on a Rainy night with the flashing thunder rumbling through the skies. The rain was so heavy it was looking like heaven's itself was weeping.

And I, not afraid of death was on the way to the grocery store with an umbrella.

Sounds like this were continuously coming from all side but suddenly, I saw a blindingly white beams of light flashed infront of my eyes.

After that, i started loosing all the feeling from My body, i couldn't hear anything, My eyes became blurry , my consciousness began to go fussy and I lost consciousness.

Yep, you guessed right, I died in quite cliche way, struck by lightning and what's more infuriating is. I died virgin without even touching a girl's hand.

Next time, When I came to the senses again. I was already reincarnated in this bizarre world As a child without memory and grew up like a normal child would do, until the age of 15. however, i gradually started recovering fragments of my memory.

Come for breakfast son

Coming mom, Oliver shook his head to woke himself from his reverie and replied back, freshen up before making his way to downstairs to the dining table.

Where Oliver saw his parents and his sister sitting on the dining chair waiting for him.

Oliver said good morning to everyone before sat on the chair and started serving himself dishes.

Are you feeling nervous about today's assessment, asked his mother caringly while looking at him.

Hearing this, although Oliver was flustered but still replied in a nonchalant tone To not let his mom worried about him

No mom, even if I fail I can be a businessman like father.

After that, nobody asked anything more and started finishing their meals in tacit understanding And Oliver let his thoughts wander to the history of this world.

This planet's name is Astrum which basically means a star or an Havenly body. It is hundreds of times larger than the earth in my previous life.

However, thousands of years ago it was same size as earth but, it all changed after a mysterious portals appeared in the Pacific Ocean. From their an energy called "authority" which is also known as "mana" came to ashtrum.

After that, Astrum started to grow at rapid pace, bringing a profound change all over the planet. affected from that, The trees which were originally small, began to grow larger and more vibrant.

The animals which were originally docile, became cruel and bloodthirsty monsters.

And the human's who were on top of food chain, fell from their alter and slaughtered like pigs.

Just when the monsters were getting stronger and larger and human being were getting weaker and weaker.

Some humans discovered they could control mana, which basically means "authority".

They realised that with the use of mana, they could control and harness, the power of nature itself to bend elements to their wills. They are known as mages

Moreover, Some humans even tried to subjugate the monsters and succeeded. They are known as summoners.

And amongst the a lucky few, who can't control mana tried using it to strengthen their body. they are known as warriors.

They used those newly found power to push back the monsters, and established the safe haven for humans. Which is known as "the federation"
