Beast Taming System: Unique SSS-Class
The emergence of the rifts happened nearly two decades ago. The phenomenon began suddenly and without warning, when strange, iridescent cracks appeared in the skies, tearing open the fabric of reality itself. From these rifts came a tide of monsters—creatures from alternate dimensions, hostile and terrifying, that wreaked havoc across the globe. Many countries were overwhelmed by the initial wave, with entire armies decimated within days.
The rifts were not just a source of danger—they were also a source of power. Beyond the creatures that spilled out into the world, the rifts carried with them a strange energy. This energy, known as Mana, was a vital force that could enhance the natural world in strange and dangerous ways. As Mana seeped into the Earth, the very laws of nature began to warp, leading to the rise of Awakened humans.
Awakened individuals—those who could tap into the Mana from the rifts—became the new power in the world. These individuals could summon, tame, and control monsters from the rifts, and they gained unique abilities through their bond with these creatures. In essence, the rifts reshaped humanity, making beast tamers, mages, and other talented individuals the new elite.
But the rifts didn’t only give power—they also brought chaos. Wild rifts—unstable portals—began opening in random locations, pouring out monsters of various sizes and ranks. The world had to adapt quickly, and the rise of Beast Taming Academies was a direct response to this new threat. The Academies became the cornerstone of humanity’s survival, training young tamers to capture and control the creatures from the rifts, creating an intricate society where strength, control, and evolution were all crucial to survival.
Kaito knew that his journey was about more than just taming beasts—it was about understanding the rifts themselves. What caused them? Why had they suddenly appeared? And what was their true connection to the monsters that now roamed the world?
