"Heroes are not born, they are forged in the fire of adversity, and it's not the sword that makes the hero, but the heart that wields it."
....

Born in a world where fantasy and humanity coexisted, with this second chance, he had to thrive and grow in this world — earn the coveted SSS rank and become the Legendary Keeper.
Thus his journey began, through thick and thin he had to stick to "Adapt. Evolve. Survive." — the Keeper's creed.

Hello readers! Can't wait to share this story with you. But before we start, there is a short introduction of the Keeper System to help you navigate through the story better.
The Great Awakening —
The world underwent a sudden and inexplicable transformation known as the Great Awakening, granting extraordinary powers to selected individuals. This phenomenon marked the beginning of a new era, filled with uncertainty and possibility.
The Great Awakening was characterized by:
- Widespread emergence of supernatural creatures
- Awakening of dormant human potential, resulting in the development of extraordinary abilities
- Disruption of global stability, leading to conflicts and power struggles.
The origin of the great awakening remained unknown. Some said it was natural phenomenon, others believed it was the execution of a well-planned programme.
Keeper System —
The Keeper System is a mysterious entity that emerged amidst the chaos, to govern the land, restore order, and nurture Peace Keepers – awakened individuals with extraordinary powers.
The System's ultimate goal is to maintain balance and harmony in a world where powerful beings with diverse abilities coexist.
It assigns tasks, provides training, and evaluates the performance of Peace Keepers, guiding them through a hierarchical ranking system.
This framework enables Keepers to:
- Develop their skills and abilities
- Test their strengths and weaknesses
- Ascend through the ranks, increasing their influence and responsibilities
Peace Keepers (Keepers) —
The Keepers were a group of awakened humans with extraordinary powers.
Keepers maintain peace and stability while interacting with:
- Other awakened individuals with diverse powers and agendas
- Normal humans, who may be unaware of the awakened world
- Supernatural creatures
- Rogue elements, including corrupted Keepers and malevolent organizations
Ranking System —
The System categorizes Keepers into ranks, from F (Novice) to SSS (Legendary), based on their accomplishments, skills, and experience.
The ranking is as follows —
F - Novice
E - Emerging
D - Intermediate
C - Capable
B - Advanced
A - Expert
S - Master
SS - Archon
SSS - Legendary
This ranking system provides a framework for Keepers to:
- Progress and develop their abilities
- Demonstrate their value to the System
- Increase their influence and responsibilities. One has to complete tasks and acquire skills to progress in ranks.
Skills and Special Powers —
As Peace Keepers, they wield unique abilities and develop skills to maintain harmony.
These powers include:
- Elemental manipulation (fire, water, earth, air)
- Energy projection and manipulation
- Enhanced physical abilities (strength, speed, agility)
- Supernatural abilities (telekinesis, teleportation, illusions)
- Strategic thinking and tactical planning
Governance and Organization —
The Keeper System operates under a strict hierarchy.
The Architect:
- An unknown and mysterious figure, occupies the topmost position in the Keeper System's hierarchy. The System's inner workings and the Architect's identity remain shrouded in mystery.
Elite Council:
- The system and the Keepers are governed by a group of Elite or highly experienced people. How they are recruited and how they were connected to the Architect — again, a mystery.
But one thing is prominent — Keeper System is blended with the world, into the life of people; and it can't be ignored anymore.
....
That was a brief description of the Keeper System and how the story is gonna be. There will be more characters, I'll introduce them gradually , to prevent overwhelming you with so many characters at the beginning.
Reece's character will go through significant development — from a relatively powerless individual to the powerful SSS ranked Keeper. But as said, everything has its own price. And his journey is not gonna be a cakewalk — in no way!
That's all! No more spoilers.
