A child floated through the endless void, his soul adrift in the cosmos, no longer tethered to the constraints of his past life. His last memories were of Earth, of Bihar, where he had admired the tales of Karna—the Son of Surya, the invincible warrior whose tragic fate had left him scarred. The stories of Karna's strength, his honor, and the celestial armor that made him nearly invincible had always captivated Krishna. But now, it seemed the universe had brought him to a different destiny, one he could shape with his own hands.

Yet as he drifted aimlessly, his consciousness barely clinging to the fragments of memories, he realized something that made him smile: fate was no longer something to be feared. It was something he could control.

The void around him seemed to listen. A crack appeared in the darkness, and from it, golden light poured through, filling the space like the first rays of dawn breaking through the night sky. Before Krishna could fully comprehend what was happening, a force—immeasurable and divine—pulled him forward. His soul descended through time and space, carrying him to a new world.

He gasped as his senses awakened, filling his small body with warmth and air. He felt life surge through him as though he were breathing for the very first time. And with that breath, he opened his eyes.

A New Life Begins

The blurry shapes before him slowly came into focus. He was no longer alone in the void. Two figures loomed above him, gazing down at him with a mix of awe, curiosity, and concern.

They were women—two stunning women, both radiating an aura that was anything but ordinary. One had long, flowing silver hair that shimmered like moonlight, with eyes the color of a crystal-clear lake. The other had deep auburn locks that cascaded in waves down her back, her posture dignified and her gaze filled with wisdom. These were the Dean and Vice Dean of Skywater Academy.

"A baby?" the silver-haired woman murmured in disbelief, her voice soft but filled with an underlying sense of wonder. "Who would abandon such a child here?"

The auburn-haired woman stepped forward, lifting the boy into her arms. The moment her skin touched his, something indescribable pulsed between them. A warmth, a bond that transcended understanding. It was as if a divine force had blessed this encounter.

"He is no ordinary child," the Vice Dean whispered, feeling a strange energy stir within her. "I can feel it."

In that moment, Krishna's consciousness solidified. He could sense the memories of his previous life, his existence as Krishna from Earth. He had once read all the books on Douluo Dalu, his heart aching for the adventures and stories of this world. And now, he had transmigrated into it. He knew the world's deepest secrets and, more importantly, the future.

In his mind, something stirred.

The System Awakens

A transparent panel materialized before Krishna's eyes, unseen by anyone else.

[Divine System Activated]

Host: Krishna

Age: 1 Year

Martial Souls: Locked (To be awakened at age 6)

Abilities: Locked

Special Condition: The host possesses a unique fate force. The destiny of this world has already begun shifting.

"A system?" Krishna thought with a smile. Just like the ones he'd read about. The possibilities were endless.

For the next few years, Krishna kept to himself, learning everything he could from his new environment. He grew under the care of the Dean and Vice Dean, who raised him as their own son. The Academy, however, remained unaware of the child's true potential, and his awakening remained a secret.

Six Years Later – Awakening in the Shadows

At the age of six, Krishna stood alone in a hidden underground chamber deep within Skywater Academy, flanked by only the Dean and Vice Dean. They knew what was at stake. They had felt the power within him, and so they had decided to carry out his martial soul awakening away from prying eyes.

"Are you ready, Krishna?" the Dean asked softly, her voice laced with both caution and excitement.

Krishna nodded solemnly. He had waited for this moment all his life—the moment that would define his path and set his destiny in motion. He had trained both his mind and body for this day.

The Vice Dean, her eyes glowing with a deep understanding of the powers at play, raised her hand, channeling her Spirit Power. A golden light enveloped Krishna, her energy guiding him as the awakening ritual began.

But as the process unfolded, something strange happened. The energy around him fluctuated wildly, the air crackling with uncontainable power. The room began to tremble as the aura surrounding Krishna surged, forming a brilliant golden cocoon that shone brighter than the sun.

Then it happened.

A blinding flash filled the room, and both women stepped back in awe, shielding their eyes. Three ancient symbols materialized above Krishna's head, each one radiating immense divine power.

Martial Soul 1: Vijay Bow of Karna – A divine bow forged from the sun's very rays. Arrows fired from it carried the weight of celestial flames, capable of piercing even the strongest defenses. With each shot, Krishna would channel the power of Surya himself, becoming an unstoppable force of nature.

Martial Soul 2: Creation God Soul – The power to bend reality itself, shaping the elements of nature and controlling Luck and Destiny. Krishna could now see the fate lines of those around him, alter their paths, and even steal opportunities, all while weaving his own destiny as he saw fit.

Martial Soul 3: Kingdom of God – A pocket dimension under Krishna's control, one where time and space could be bent to his will. The domain was a sanctuary for those who followed him and a battleground for the worthy. Within this realm, Krishna could ascend those aligned with him to divine beings or teleport them into a new reality altogether.

As the final martial soul manifested, Krishna's consciousness expanded beyond mortal limits. He glimpsed the threads of fate, the birth of Tang San, the rise of Spirit Hall, and the great battles that would soon unfold. But with this divine sight came a realization: fate could be rewritten. The world was not bound by the past, and Krishna, with his newfound power, would be the one to reshape it.

"Unbelievable…" the Vice Dean gasped, struggling to comprehend the magnitude of what she had just witnessed. "This is beyond anything recorded in history."

The Dean, overwhelmed by the sheer force of Krishna's power, knelt before him in reverence. "You are destined for greatness, child. The world will never be the same again."

Krishna's golden eyes glowed with determination as he looked at the two women, his lips curling into a confident smirk.

"No, it won't," Krishna declared, his voice steady and resolute. "Because this time… fate belongs to me."

And with that, Krishna's journey into the world of Douluo Dalu had truly begun.
