Leo felt a heavy, echoing voice resonate in his mind. The System, an enigmatic presence, spoke directly to him. *"It's time you learned about this world,"* it announced, and images began to flood his mind, revealing a history long forgotten.

### **The World of the Seven Races**
In the ancient past, seven powerful races ruled the land: Vampires, Werewolves, Humans, Dragonewts, Elves, Giants, and Demons. They were mighty and unmatched, but over centuries, war and betrayal wiped out many. Now, only four remain:
- **Vampires** (40% of the land): Ruling vast, dark territories, they are divided into noble bloodlines descended from the Origin Tree. Their society values strength and pure bloodlines.
- **Werewolves** (35%): Dominating the wild forests, they live in tight-knit tribes. They thrive on raw power and loyalty, always striving to rise above their rivals, particularly the Vampires.
- **Dragonewts** (20%): The strongest of the races, they inhabit secluded mountains. Their ancient dragon blood grants them unmatched power, but they remain hidden, away from the conflicts of other races.
- **Neutral Territory** (5%): A lawless, unpredictable zone where no race holds control, filled with mercenaries and rogue factions.
The **Humans**, once a prosperous race, are now enslaved. Branded with a curse mark, they have become servants to the other races, their strength and freedom stripped away.

### **The Legend of the Forbidden Stone Tablet**
Everything changed when the **Forbidden Stone Tablet of Seven** was discovered. Inscribed by a god, it dictated a ritual held every ten years where the strongest warriors of each race battle in the Catacombs. The losing race would be enslaved, and the victor would receive divine blessings.
Centuries ago, the Vampires, seeking dominance, organized this tournament under false pretenses. The Dragonewts emerged victorious, securing their freedom, while the Humans, unable to compete against the powerful races, fell to last place. Branded as slaves, they were bound to serve, their potential forgotten.
However, the Tablet held a secret known only to the Vampire elite: humans had a hidden ability to inherit the powers of other races by consuming their blood. The Vampires, fearing the rise of humanity, suppressed this knowledge, keeping humans in ignorance of their own potential.

### **Leo's Mission and the System's Offer**
As the next tournament looms, the human leader searches for a champion to break their curse. The System reveals to Leo that he is the chosen one, destined to rise and free humanity.
The System explains: *"Humans have the potential to gain powers from other races, but it's random and unstable. With me, you can choose specific abilities, harness them, and refine them through the **Origin Tree** of each race."*
The **Origin Tree** is a pathway of powers, starting with basic traits and leading to the most potent abilities of a race's ancestors. Through the System, Leo can access these abilities, level them up, and combine them to create something entirely new.

### **Leo's Quest for the Bloodline Progenitor Title**
The System sets a clear goal for Leo: to attain the title of **"Bloodline Progenitor."** This title signifies the culmination of mastering the powers of all races, a being who embodies the essence and strength of each lineage. To achieve this, Leo must:
1. **Consume the Blood of Other Races**: Gain access to their Origin Trees and unlock new abilities.
2. **Master the Origin Trees**: Level up and evolve abilities, strategically choosing which powers to enhance.
3. **Prepare for the Catacombs**: In fifteen years, he must represent humanity in the tournament, aiming to win and break the curse.
4. **Unite the Human Spirit**: Rally his people and unlock their potential, giving them a fighting chance against their oppressors.
With a sense of purpose, Leo accepts his fate. *"I understand,"* he says with determination. *"Let's get started."*
The System hums approvingly. *"The road ahead is long and challenging, but together, we will forge a new destiny. You are no longer alone, Leo. We will break the chains of fate."*
