In a small world named Esteria, there are many islands but not major land area. In this world , at the corner resides a ghost ship the size of a mountain with many sea weeds in it. Inside the ship , an ant which was working to secure it's food climbs on a large box to its knowledge to get some food.
The ant which climbed the box doesn't know that it was a coffin , but sure enough it went through a crack in search for it's food. Inside the coffin it saw a skeleton the size of an average human which had red gem in the place of its heart . When the ant thought of the gem as food and stepped on it , the gem which had not shown any reaction for who knew how long started glowing.
The skeleton's socket which had been empty now had a green fire in it . The skeleton opened the coffin and looked around and said “ Now , I don't know where I am in this goddamn ship but still... Not one who could help me break this curse. Ahh DAMMIT!!! " He shouted for a while and sighed“ Well I'll sleep for another thousand years then." He resigned to himself and was about sleep when a weak mana fluctuation spread from some remote island throughout the world which passed him.
Dumbfounded , he waved his hand and created a mirror from seawater in which it showed the whole world. He waved again impatiently to see the source of disturbance when the mirror shoed an island on the opposite side of the world . In the island , in the slums was a tattered tent in which a boy was meditating. Curious, the skeleton tried to probe the boy .
The mirror abruptly shattered and the skeleton let out a painful howl that even ghosts would fear . The skeleton started cracking and he painfully cut off his mana to escape from his sufferings.

He said weakly“ What kind of power would be able to experience this kind of backlash when even the boy himself has not even condensed his mana core. It seems I don't need to sleep for thousand years anymore. Don't disappoint me boy." As he said this he went back to his coffin as his bones already started to mend itself.
In the island which was monitored by the skeleton, the boy who was meditating without a care opened his eyes. His eyes which should be natural and lively at his age was dull and almost grey. This boy has a sharp jawline and can also be a natural enemy to all single if not for his eyes. He was dressed in rags and covered in dirt. He had a black hair which fell upto his shoulders. He washed his face and went to the forest , where was a small tree like mango tree. He went below the tree and started digging , while he was digging he thought“ I will be 15 day after tomorrow, if i follow the divine information in the book I will be become strong enough to live a great life."
As digged a depth , he took a book covered in a cloth bundle . There was nothing in the book except blank pages. But when he opened the first page , there was a voice speaking directly in his head.
