“A long, long time ago, the world was ruled by the ancient evil mages and demons. The mages did experiments on humans and ruled with fear and corruption. While the demons ate humans and reared them like livestock

The common people suffered a lot In those times.

I am talking about the pre-descendence era. The mages and demons did such cruelties on the non-mages that our dear gods decided to descend from heavens to punish them. They killed heads of mage factions and the various demon kings. but the mage alliance along with some remnants of demons managed to survive.

The gods decided to give the task of exterminating the evil to the mortals. They sometimes summon heroes or people with their past life’s memories intact to help us in that goal.

They also created the system that helps every human access supernatural powers. Which hel-“

I was 4 years old when I was admitted to this village school and am now 5. For the last year, this story or ‘history’ had been repeated to us for what felt like thousands of times, along with descriptions of what type of tortures the mages did in vivid details I think no 4-year-old needed.

We had been taught about a lot of times when heroes were summoned to defeat the demon kings, a classic, the many wars fought against the ‘evil ancient mages’ and some maths.

There was no such thing as science so our syllabus included history, basic maths (which I always topped, not that I am proud of that) and 2 languages. One of our own locality and the other was the universal language of humanity.

The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

Our world was called Prithyu, which I already knew. There were 3 Continents on our planet, namely Galdoria, Tundrath and Nytara.

We were currently in the Kingdom of Eldoria which was in Galdoria. Quite rhyming to be honest.

I have been practicing the same spell for the last 5 years but while the proficiency increased, the amount of mana I had, and my mana recovery speed remained the same.

I was getting kind of bored now to be honest.

Soon I was walking towards my home. I still didn’t have any friends in this world as there wasn’t really a point in making friends with kids the age of my grandchildren if I had any.

I didn’t have any really good friend in my past life as well, I was too into weird ‘theories’ for many people to like me.

I continued walking while musing about things and I soon reached my home. Mom was gone as always, she loved to help dad farm. She said I would help him instead of her when I turned 6 years old.

I walked into my room and picked up the book titled ‘Progression of humans’

It sounded like a book that talked about the technological advancement of the world but it talked about the path to power in the system.

Any awakened person was considered as F rank. Then in went to E, D, C, B, A and S

The book vaguely mentioned the existence of ranks above S but didn’t mention what it was.

I know that the highest rank is demigods.

Well above that is gods but according to what Ignia told me, there has never been a case of anyone becoming a god.

There was not a single book in the whole village that mentioned how the f mana worked or how spells worked. And I was really looking forward to that information.

I completed reading the book, went downstairs to my mother who was preparing dinner. Ate dinner and went to my room to sleep.

I hoped that the day I turn 12 will come soon.
