Chapter one
The origins
One fateful evening during a honey moon in the nearby Olimbus forest ,Jack zaiton and his fiancé oliver zaiton , heard a cry in the bush , the basket was decorated almost complete with foreighn patterns all over the basket ,when they opened it they saw a baby boy who around his neck was a jade pendant of expensive design almost resembling those of royals . but they were too excited to notice it ,for they were excited for the gift that was Infront of them…they had received a gift , a blessing from the gods of Down Pantheons a low tier planet meaning the lowest of the lowest planet with only a few powerful families ,clans ,and sects .jack zaiton exhaled with excitement. Just as we were about to give up is when the Gods answer our prayers ,I shall name you kaizen the mist from now you are a zaiton he raised the child in the sky and said kaizen, zaiton son of jack zaiton is what you are… as if declaring to the animals in the wilderness oliver was excitedly staring at the child zaiton holding in the sky…and I will be your loving mother our son.
On reaching back home at the zaiton manor, they secretly took there child to the zaiton family head. Arron zaiton , Jacks father and excitedly told him abought there recent encounter and the luck that came there way. this news made him tremble in joy. For he thought that after an event that happened a few years ago when his son Jack was injured in a fierce battle with another member of another powerful family. they Grey family which always wanted to supress the Zaiton family, in that battle jack was injured and lost his ability to bear children. While his opponent lost his sight during one of those clan fights .since it was tradition to Duel between this families it was a rule not to secretly seek revenge .but do it the most honourable way. the warrior way through bald fights in Duels in Arenas, it helped stop unnecessary death and peace in this planet. With tears tears almost dropping out of his eyes Arron zaiton called for a family meeting in the the zaiton family halls. when they arrived. He started in a serious tone, last time our pride was hurt but today we have a gift. from today onwards we welcome a new member to our family Kaizen Zaiton. he then raised him up for every one to see. He's so cute , most of the family members cheered some congratulated Jack and Oliver ,as the new official parents of the child they were showered with gifts the next day.
Meanwhile the other families across the Down Pantheons planet were not happy, They saw a threat coming there way which they needed to eliminate immediately and as soon as possible .
As time passed by it was already 5 years and Kaizen had already shown great potential in martial arts because in this word strength was everything. His foundation was solid and showed promise he was being trained by perugwin, one of the most feared warriors in the Down pantheons and he was made a zaiton by Arron zaiton so his status in the family is not low. he always reported kaizen's progress to the family head. This always gave joy to his parents. Oliver often refused anyone to serve him food and did it by her self.
He soon became the young master of the family and was respected at a young age five more years his foundation had increased and could out compete most of the fighters in the family. He became a source of pride for the elders .
Young fighters always awaken there battle spirit at the age of 12 years of age and that determines their aptitude and abilities when they they grow up as warriors .
At that time it was time for the new generation to take over and start taking there place in this world .each and every family makes sure to provide there new generation with cultivation resources ,new techniques, mana crystals ,and vigorous training in order to make their new generation stronger. Securing there prestige in this cruel planet and of course supress other families .
At 12 kaizen awakened a blue flame battle spirit ,a behemoth manifestation but something was not right about it it looked arrogant and proud as if looking down on everyone .its said that battle spirits reflect on the owners emotions and at times behaviour characteristics .this got most people in the family confused they were expecting something like a dragon or lion or something cooler than that thing they didn't understand .
Kaizen ever a naïve person and expecting every one to be cool got scared.
Look its angry I think kaizen thinks we are mocking him now the behemoth is angry and its out for blood. With a frustrated scream kaizen shouted and ran away from the training grounds and back to his home where he found his parents waiting for him. kaizen come hear dear, Oliver ever the loving mother called and hugged him in her arms trying to calm him down. Son we know what happened. Jack said. All over a sudden in their living chambers it became quiet .Oliver added son look its not all abought the battle spirit its abought how good one uses it and utilizes it well .I have faith that your battle spirit is great and all you need to know is learn its strength and weaknesses of your battle spirit and you can learn how to work together as one because your battle spirit always will put its life on the line to protect you ,son we love you and we are your parents so we will always have your back. with a scream Kaizen screamed Lier, and ran away from the room .Oliver shouted with tears in her eyes Kaizen while trying to stop him. Jack held her and said please let him go and don't try to stop him you will only make it worse. its okay he needs some time to recover. with teary eyes Oliver shouted Kaizen but all in vain. He had already disappeared out of her sight , Arron zaiton the elder clears throat to catch attention in the room, he then began. as we all know abought know about Kaizen's Battle spirit is not normal, it's a behemoths .another Elder said much as we all don't know about his battle spirit . I think its totally useless. laughter rang from some the other elders in the room those who were always against Arron Zaiton. I I tried to speak but every body shut me up ,you know a child of a rat is a rat .he was never one of us to begin with. All over a sudden the tension in the room shifted jack shouted, shut up you imbecile, what do you know about me and my grandson ,this made the arrogant elder break out in a cold sweat ,with a stammer what? .he swallowed hard in fear, all over a sudden they felt all thick heavy pressure falling on on their bodies in the room making most of the weaker elders suffocate struggling for breath .with cracking voices pleading ,family head have mercy on us your Aura is killing us ,Arron zaiton was in his head with a sinister voice since when have I ever made a bad discission in this family ,who are you to judge my grandson?. the arrogant elder pleaded .I apologise ,if this goes on the weak elders will end up dying, Arron zaitons eyes were red with anger ,. Last warning any one who dares to speak nonsense abought my grandson Kaizen will be killed by my own hands ,. He threatened .A light lough was heard from the Connor of the room, it was a funny lough almost mocking. the old man said calm down Arron ,uhhh I mean Family head ,for a long time this one person was the only one who was able to put some sense in the proud family head's hot temper. No need to get angry over such small things like this . the other family elders , the other family m embers commented silently,. I have never seen the family head this angry .Arron finally released his oppressive aura and the people inside could finally beath in peace ,with others coughing as if they were being chocked. What do you mean old man ,Arron zaiton asked .I mean the behemoth. the other Elders asked. what abought the behemoth ?. Elder kunn with the knowledge was still quiet .Arron said. ohh now you have done it .and released a cold killing intent with his aura, then Elder kunn said okay, okay, okay as if a criminal who is finally confessing after much torture .another Elder man shouted saying your terrible jokes will get us killed one day. then he started speaking .The behemoth is a deadly battle spirit , a creature that is known for devouring its enemies and taking their power as its own .its forbidden in the upper realms ,people with such power are always hunted down and killed before they become powerful. only few families in the upper realm can stay safe but even though they get assassination attempts from several organizations , the galaxy is large and that means there are people stronger than your wildest dreams, and I just figured out that might be the reason why kaizen was sent here in the first place. he must belong to one of those powerful families, most elders exclaimed I shock and some fainted due to disbelieve. you have all witnessed his achievements. awakening a terrifying battle spirit at a young age ,having a solid foundation. even his personality speaks volumes. I will admit that we landed on treasure and now its time to see him grow into a strong warrior ,because his potential is limitless and he's hard working Arron quickly stood up and summoned the guards to summon Kaizen and jack to the elders meeting .
CHAPTER ONE – The Origins
The Olimbus Forest was not known for mercy.
That night, its towering trees stood unnaturally still, branches frozen as though listening. Even the insects fell silent, the mist drifting low like something alive. Jack Zaiton paused mid-stride, hand tightening around his fiancé Oliver's wrist.
"Did you hear that?" Oliver whispered.
A faint cry—soft, trembling, impossibly fragile—rose from a thicket nearby. It was not the sound of an animal. It was too deliberate… too human.
Jack moved toward it, pushing aside tangled leaves until his lantern revealed a small woven basket resting between the roots of an ancient tree. Strange symbols—foreign, flowing like winding serpents—glowed faintly along its edges.
Oliver gasped. "Jack… look."
Inside the basket lay a baby boy, silent now, wrapped in pristine cloth. Around his tiny neck hung a jade pendant—deep green, pulsing faintly with warmth, unlike anything crafted on Down Pantheons.
Jack's breath hitched. "A child? Here?"
But before fear could take root, wonder overtook him. For years he and Oliver had prayed, begged the heavens for a miracle after the wounds Jack suffered in battle robbed him of the ability to have children. Tonight, in the quiet heart of Olimbus, the impossible lay before them.
"Oliver… the gods have heard us." His voice trembled. "They answered."
He lifted the child carefully, holding him toward the canopy as if presenting him to the watching forest.
"From this night onward, you are ours," Jack declared. "Kaizen Zaiton—our son."
Oliver pressed her hand over her mouth, tears forming. "Our child… Jack, he's beautiful."
Neither of them noticed the jade pendant pulse faintly, as though acknowledging a truth far older than either could imagine.
THE ZAITON MANOR
Returning home, Jack and Oliver hurried to the Zaiton manor under the cover of night. The moment Arron Zaiton—the family head and Jack's father—saw the child, his stoic expression cracked into trembling astonishment.
"A child…? You…" His voice broke. "After everything? After that battle… after the Grey family crippled you…"
Jack nodded. "Father, the heavens have blessed us. This is Kaizen."
Arron's hands shook as he took the baby into his arms. He felt something—an energy, faint yet ancient—radiating from the pendant. But excitement drowned out any suspicion.
"Our family… has been given hope once again," Arron whispered.
That same hour, he summoned the entire Zaiton clan to the family hall. Elders gathered, whispering among themselves as Arron stepped forward and lifted the baby high.
"Tonight, the Zaiton line is strengthened. We welcome Kaizen Zaiton."
Applause erupted. Joyful cheers rang through the manor as gifts and blessings poured over Jack and Oliver.
But far beyond the manor walls and beneath the quiet surface of the Down Pantheons, other families felt a tremor ripple through their ancestral wards.
A warning.A threat.A presence they did not recognize—and could not allow to grow.
THE YEARS OF PROMISE
Five years passed, and Kaizen grew into a boy whose talent defied logic.
Perugwin, one of the strongest warriors in the Down Pantheons, personally trained him. The boy had a foundation stronger than anyone his age—too strong, some whispered. His reflexes, instincts, and raw power bloomed at an unnatural pace.
At ten years old, he was already defeating warriors twice his age.
At twelve, the traditional age of awakening, the entire Zaiton family gathered at the training grounds.
The moment Kaizen placed his hand on the Awakening Stone, light burst from the platform—blinding, violent, ancient. A monstrous silhouette rose behind him, towering and furious.
A Behemoth Battle Spirit.
A creature forbidden in the upper realms. A devourer of enemies. A symbol of destruction.
The elders recoiled in fear."This… this cannot be…""Why would a child awaken something like that?"
The Behemoth's eyes gleamed with savage arrogance, staring down at the clan as if measuring who to kill first. Kaizen trembled, confused and terrified, believing he was being judged—mocked.
Finally, overwhelmed, he screamed and ran from the training grounds, tears burning his eyes.
A MOTHER'S COMFORT
At home, Jack and Oliver waited anxiously. Oliver rushed to Kaizen the moment he appeared.
"Come here, my son," she whispered, pulling him into a warm embrace.
Jack knelt beside him. "Kaizen… we know. But listen to us—your spirit is not a curse."
Oliver stroked his hair gently. "It is not the spirit that defines greatness, but how you master it. We believe in you. We always will."
But the boy shoved their hands away, overwhelmed by fear and shame."Lies!" he cried before storming from the room.
Oliver reached out—but Jack caught her shoulder."Let him breathe. He needs time."
Her tears fell silently as Kaizen disappeared into the corridor.
THE ELDERS' JUDGMENT
In the council hall, elders debated in heated whispers.
"A Behemoth spirit? Impossible.""Dangerous. Dangerous for all of us!""Maybe… he was never meant to be one of us."
The last comment earned instant regret as Jack slammed his fist onto the table, fury erupting through the hall.
"Say that again," he growled, aura flaring, "and I will end you."
The room trembled. Weaker elders collapsed under the suffocating pressure. Arron rose slowly, eyes burning, his killing intent turning the air icy.
"Enough," Arron snapped. "One more insult toward my grandson, and I will personally execute the offender."
Silence swallowed the hall.
Then Elder Kunn stepped forward, his voice shaking.
"Family head… the boy's spirit… it is not normal. Behemoths are forbidden in the upper realms for a reason. Individuals who awaken them are hunted without mercy. Kaizen… he might be from a lineage far beyond this planet."
Gasps echoed.Some elders nearly fainted.
Arron inhaled deeply, shock and realization dawning in his eyes.
"We must summon Jack and Kaizen… immediately."
AND FAR, FAR AWAY…
In the unseen places between stars, something ancient stirred.
A voice whispered through the cosmos:
"The child has awakened."
And the storm began to gather.
