The world was no longer as Noah had known it. Oceans had shifted, mountains had merged, and continents that had once been separated now lay fused into a single, sprawling landmass. The chaos that followed was unimaginable: cities toppled, borders vanished, and the hum of civilization was replaced by uncertainty. Humanity struggled to grasp order, but survival alone seemed a Herculean task.
In the midst of this upheaval, a monarchic system emerged once more. Kings and queens rose from the ashes, asserting authority over fractured lands, trying desperately to restore structure. Yet, as humans scrambled to reclaim control, the world revealed its true transformation.
From the center of the continent, a colossal world tree erupted into the sky, its trunk stretching beyond clouds, branches sprawling over valleys and mountains alike. From its heights descended the elves, ethereal beings with piercing eyes and long, flowing hair, whose presence radiated an aura of magic and wisdom. They claimed the world tree as their origin and quickly became a force of influence in human affairs.
Not long after, the air shimmered with strange light as massive spaceships descended, landing with thunderous impact. The dwarves emerged—short, stocky, and meticulous, wielding technological marvels and building cities within mountains. Their craftsmanship and inventions fascinated humans, yet reminded them how far behind they truly were.
And then, without warning, the vampires appeared, teleporting into this new world with arrogance and malice. Their presence was a storm of power, their eyes glinting with predatory instinct. They waged war indiscriminately, forcing humans, elves, and dwarves alike into desperate defense.
Amid this chaos, humanity discovered a latent gift: the Status Screen System. Every awakened individual could see their own class, traits, affinities, skills, and potential rank, an ability that allowed ordinary people to rise beyond their natural limits. Some became warriors of incredible skill; others wielded magic beyond comprehension. The scales of power shifted daily, and the strong survived while the weak fell away.
Yet even as violence raged, diplomacy found a foothold. The elves and dwarves established treaties with humans, negotiating borders and mutual support. The vampires, after relentless conflict, quarantined themselves in reserved territories, agreeing—at least outwardly—to a tense and uneasy peace. For now, the world was stable, though the calm was fragile.
And in the heart of this new world, a boy awoke in a lavish bathtub, water rippling around him. At first, he did not recognize the face staring back in the mirror—dark blue hair, one red eye, one blue. But slowly, Noah understood: he was now Julien Morvain. And in this dangerous, fractured world of monarchs, awakened humans, and otherworldly species, he would learn to survive—not through raw strength, but through cunning, strategy, and the choices only a second chance could offer.
