LET'S GET OUR FREEDOM TOGETHER -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- This book has magic, warriors (different system from cultivation novels *wink*) shamans etc... And it has a Mc with COMMON SENSE *murmurs* This book is being written as I go so if there's anything you would like to change I'm willing to accept suggestions, except on this : 1)No harem because I'm getting tired of them 2)Courage is not the same as stupidity 3)My Mc will get afraid at times but he will also overcome some of his fears (not all) 4)He won't kill for necessity or out of boredom only vengeance or when he believes it's the right thing to do but he also won't be a Beta Japanese mc 5)He will be strong (with time) but he won't be the most op guy in the world. 6)If I find a mistake or an action that my Mc did that was so idiotic that I couldn't tell if I was Sober when I wrote it then I might go back and change the plot 7)romance is a option but even if it appears it will just be on the background developing through the narrative of the story... I don't want my story to end like those stories that kill themselves by writing romance or smut scenes This story happens in a world where technology is just a little behind ours, magic exists and so does all the other fantasy mumbo-jumbo. (With a personalized power sistem if you want me to change anything about it later just give me a good enough explanation, why I should) I hope that you may warn me of any mistakes I make during the completion of this work... OK

In the year 563 of the 333rd Lunar Cycle, the prophecy warned of a cataclysm that would annihilate Planet Arai and ripple across the 4th Galaxy. But the disaster came early—or so the people believed. In a single night, 95% of Arai’s population was wiped out, leaving the survivors to grapple with the horrifying truth: this was no prophesied calamity. Instead, it was a catastrophe triggered by human interference with the orbits of the planet's moons. But the biggest mystery remained—who was responsible? Two years after the event, Jaxon Altair, a determined scientist burdened by the weight of loss, uncovers the truth behind the so-called 'cataclysm.' The solution is both daring and perilous: to travel back in time, undo the damage, and prevent the tragedy from ever occurring.

As Mia drove through the bustling city streets, her heart began to race—not from the traffic, but from the chilling knowledge that a bomb had been planted in her car. The news had come through a frantic message on her phone, a warning from an anonymous source that sent her spiraling into a state of panic. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles turning white as she fought to maintain control. With every red light, her dread deepened. She knew that the moment she stopped the car, the bomb would detonate. The thought of leaving her Lysander behind filled her with a profound sense of sorrow. They had so many plans, dreams of a future together that now felt impossibly distant. With trembling hands, she picked up her phone and dialed Lysander’s number. “Mi Amore?” Lysander’s voice came through, laced with concern. “What’s wrong?” Mia smiled sadly, he could always tell when something was bothering her and yet she was going to leave him. “Lysander , I need you to listen to me,” she said, her voice quivering. “ You’re a very great person. I never thought I would find this type of love. I only thought love like this was just a fairytale. But you….you….” Mia paused taking in a deep breath. “Anna? What’s happening? Is something wrong? You’re scaring me.” Tears rolled down her cheeks as she turned her head towards the backseat where the bomb sat. How could she tell this to Lysander? She was going to die and leave him. She was going to leave him alone with the thoughts and dreams they shared. Silence hung heavy on the line, and Anna could almost hear the rapid beating of her heart. “I just found out…… I… I don’t have much time,” she choked out, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’m so sorry, love. I won’t be able to see you again.” “Don’t say that! We’ll figure this out! Just tell me what’s happening? ” he urged, desperation creeping into his tone. “No, please, just listen. It’s too late now. I love you so much, and I want you to remember that. You’ve made my life so beautiful. I wish I could hold you one last time.” Her voice broke as she fought to keep her composure. “Anna, don’t—” “I have to go, Lysander . Just know that I’m always with you.” With that, she hung up, her heart shattering into a million pieces. She looked at the cliff ahead of her and stepped on the gas, the car racing towards the cliff. ************* In the heart of a bustling college town, twenty-year-old Anna Mia Harper is juggling classes, bills, and a growing sense of despair as an orphan navigating life on her own.
