Lost in thought, everything around him turned red. With each passing moment, he drifted closer to unconsciousness. In the blink of an eye, a bridge, dozens of meters long, materialized before him. On all fours, he crawled towards it, reached it, and continued until he reached the end.

With every movement, he lost more energy. Seconds turned into minutes, then hours. Finally, he reached the end of the bridge. Before him was a door, hundreds of meters tall. It opened on its own.

He looked ahead, and a force billions of times greater than any giant crushed him. He felt like he was disintegrating.

Before him sat a being resembling a human yet clearly not human, on a throne-like seat. Black tendrils of the throne crowned its head.

It opened its mouth, "Welcome, my successor. I will give you my power. Evolve the monster world and avenge us against humanity. From now on, you are the king of the beasts. Your name shall be Ragnasa. Ragnasa, do you accept this power from me?"

The pressure lifted from Ragnasa. Now, he felt at ease. "Yes, my lord. I accept this power."

Ragnasa opened his eyes. Sunlight hit his face. He was lying in a cave. Now, he knew his purpose. He would create a world where monsters were friends and brothers, and they would avenge themselves on humanity. This is the story of the legendary king, Ragnasa, the one destined to transform

the world."
