Sanat stood beside the large window of the medical chamber.
Outside, the city stretched endlessly.
Floating highways.
Massive towers piercing the clouds.
And in the distant sky, several enormous ships slowly moved between buildings.
Sanat whistled quietly.
"Yeah… this definitely isn't Earth."
Behind him, Boba the robot stood silently while Kyala waited near the doorway.
Sanat turned around.
"Alright. I think it's time for the full tutorial."
Kyala tilted her head.
"Tutorial?"
Sanat waved his hand.
"I mean explanation. Tell me everything."
Boba stepped forward.
"Beginning world briefing."
A blue hologram appeared in the air.
The image showed a massive planet.
"This world is known as Astra Prime," Boba said.
"It is the central planet of this star system and the most developed civilization in this sector."
The hologram zoomed outward.
Five additional planets appeared around Astra Prime.
"These surrounding planets are used for hunting primal beasts, mining resources, and military training."
Sanat nodded slowly.
"Alright. Now explain the power system."
Boba immediately projected a new hologram.
Five glowing tiers appeared.
Humanoid Evolution Tiers
Tier 1 — Awakened
"Individuals at this stage have awakened their internal energy and strengthened their bodies."
Tier 2 — Evolved
"Energy control becomes stable. Fighters at this stage can destroy armored vehicles easily."
Tier 3 — Ascendant
"These individuals can manipulate gravity, energy, and planetary forces."
Sanat raised an eyebrow.
"Planetary forces?"
Kyala smiled.
"Yes. Ascendants are extremely powerful."
Boba continued.
Tier 4 — Celestial
"Celestial beings can survive in space and destroy entire armies."
Tier 5 — Transcendent
The hologram flickered.
"These individuals are considered near-divine."
Sanat scratched his chin.
"Five tiers for humanoids."
Then he asked,
"And beasts?"
Boba projected another chart.
Primal Beast Evolution
"Primal beasts evolve through six tiers."
Sanat blinked.
"Six?"
"Yes."
The robot continued.
"The sixth tier is beyond humanoid capability."
Sanat stared at the screen.
"So monsters are stronger than people?"
"Correct."
Kyala crossed her arms.
"That is why hunting primal beasts is extremely dangerous."
The hologram changed again.
Massive creatures appeared.
Dragons.
Sea monsters.
Colossal serpents.
"These beasts contain energy cores," Boba explained.
"Those cores power technology, weapons, and city infrastructure."
Sanat nodded.
"So civilization literally runs on monster batteries."
"Correct."
Sanat laughed.
"This world is insane."
But then Kyala stepped forward.
"Power is not the only thing controlling this world."
Sanat turned to her.
"Alright. Now explain the politics."
Kyala waved her hand.
A new hologram appeared showing symbols.
"These are the Top Ten Guilds of Astra Prime."
Sanat leaned forward.
"Guilds?"
"Yes," Kyala said.
"While noble families control territory, guilds control power."
She began pointing at the symbols.
The Top Ten Guilds
Solaris Vanguard – strongest combat guild
Iron Dominion – military engineering guild
Aether Hunters – elite primal beast hunters
Nova Architects – builders of planetary cities
Void Navigators – space exploration guild
Stormbreak Legion – aerial combat specialists
Eclipse Order – intelligence and espionage
Titan Forgers – weapon creators
Astral Scholars – knowledge and research
Golden Caravan – interplanetary trade guild
"These guilds operate across multiple planets," Kyala explained.
"Even noble houses respect them."
Sanat nodded slowly.
"So this world runs on nobles, guilds, and monster hunting."
"Correct."
But Boba suddenly projected another image.
Five enormous beast silhouettes appeared.
Even as holograms they felt terrifying.
Sanat leaned closer.
"What are those?"
Boba's voice lowered slightly.
"These are the Five Mythical Calamities."
Sanat blinked.
"That sounds bad."
Kyala nodded.
"Very bad."
Boba continued.
The Five Mythical Beasts
Aurelion the Sun Dragon
A massive golden dragon capable of burning entire continents.
Leviathan of the Black Ocean
A sea creature larger than cities.
The World Serpent Jormira
An ancient snake deity worshipped by serpent tribes.
Titan Behemoth
A living mountain that destroys planets.
The Void Phoenix
A creature born from cosmic storms.
Sanat stared silently.
"Those things exist?"
Kyala nodded.
"Yes."
Boba added one more detail.
"Recently, these beasts have begun forming alliances with several non-human races."
Sanat frowned.
"Which races?"
"Serpent tribes."
"Snake people."
"And several underground civilizations."
Sanat folded his arms.
"So basically…"
"Giant monsters are forming alliances and planning to attack civilization?"
"Correct."
Sanat looked back at the city outside the window.
Two trillion people.
Five layers of society.
Ten powerful guilds.
Five mythical beasts preparing for war.
He slowly smiled.
"Well."
"This new game just got interesting."
