The luxurious and spacious room is furnished with a large king-sized bed, on which a young man who appears to be around 14 years old is sleeping. Despite its opulence, the room maintains an elegant simplicity in its decor.

The young man's body is nestled in between two fluffy pillows, and a soft blanket is draped over him, covering him up to his chest. His dark, luscious hair cascades down his shoulders, framing his handsome face, which despite its youthful appearance, is strikingly attractive.

"Arghh!" A groan escaped his lips, stirring him from his sleep. His piercing blue eyes opened wide, looking confused as they stared up at the ceiling with unfamiliar clarity. He turned his head and opened his mouth.

"Where am l !?"

"What is this place !?"

"Is this some kind of prank !?"

As panic fills his voice, he quickly sits up and frantically looks around the room, his expression a mixture of confusion and anger.

The room is unfamiliar to him, and he has no memory of how he got there. He rubs his temples, trying to remember anything that could give him a clue about his situation, but his mind is blank. Panic starts to set in as he realizes he may be in some kind of danger.

He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. Maybe he's just experiencing amnesia or a strange dream. He looks around the room again, taking in the luxurious decor, the large king-sized bed he had been sleeping on, and the bedside table next to him.

As he looks around the room, he notices the elegant simplicity that it exudes. The walls are painted a calming shade of cream, and the furniture is made of rich dark wood. On the opposite side of the room from the bed, there is a large floor-to-ceiling window that allows the moonlight to filter in, casting a soft glow on everything in the room.

Despite the comfort of the room, the young man cannot shake off the feeling of confusion and unease that washes over him. He feels like he's in a dream, and he pinches his arm just to make sure that he's not. The pain makes him wince, but also reveals that this is in-fact not a dream but reality.

"What is going on?" he mutters to himself, rubbing his eyes as he tries to make sense of his situation.

"This can't be real. Am I hallucinating?"

He takes a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. As he does so, his gaze lands on a bedside table that has a notebook on it. He quickly grabs it and flips through the pages, looking for any clues as to where he is or what happened to him.

The notebook is filled with unfamiliar handwriting and notes about various magical spells and incantations. The young man's heart races as he reads through the pages, realizing that he has somehow been transported to a world of magic and wonder.

As he continues to read, a sense of excitement starts to replace the panic and confusion that he felt earlier. He realizes that he has been given a chance to explore this new world, to learn about its mysteries and secrets.

"This maybe a dangerous new reality, but I'm going to make the most of it,"

he says to himself with a determined grin.

With that, he sets the notebook back down on the bedside table and begins to plan his next move. He knows that he has a lot to learn about this new world, but he's ready to face whatever challenges come his way.

Soon after as if struck by a bolt of lightning, a sharp pain pierces his head as a flood of memories from his predecessor inundates him.

The happiness dies down, replaced by a sense of disorientation and confusion. He runs his fingers through his dark, flowing hair, trying to shake off the dizziness.

He sits back down on the bed and gazes out the window, taking a deep breath to calm himself. The darkness outside brings him a measure of relief, giving him time to adjust to his new identity.

"Since it's night time, that gives me some time to acclimate to my new identity. It's helpful that we have the same name, Damon," he murmurs to himself.

Looking around the room, he takes note of its opulence again with awe.

A glittering chandelier hangs from the ceiling, illuminating the space with its radiant white crystals. The window is to his right, and the door, presumably leading out of his room, is to his far left.

In the center of the room, there is a massive couch that could easily accommodate five people, yet still have space for more. As he scans the room, his eyes land on something that makes them light up with excitement.

At the far end of the room, there are shelves lined with various books.

Damon's gaze is immediately drawn to the top shelf where a large tome titled "The History of Magic" rests. Beneath it, a smaller book with the title "History and Magical Theory of the World" catches his attention.

He rises unsteadily from the bed and makes his way over to the bookshelf, taking care not to trip over any unfamiliar objects in the room.

Stretching his arm up and carefully pulling down both books, he then returns to the couch and places them gently on the coffee table in front of him. With a deep breath, he opens the cover of "The History of Magic" and begins to read.

The first chapter introduces The origins of Magic and the History of Magic.

"Magic is a word used to describe the supernatural feats that humans perform, through the power of mana and spells," Damon reads to himself with fascination.

"And it seems humans are not the only race in this world," he continues, scanning through the text.

"This world is called Myriad Star, and it's all on one continent."

He leans back on the couch, his mind racing with excitement at the prospect of learning more about this new world he has found himself in.

Damon continues to read, fascinated by the information in the book.

"There are multiple Gods in this world. Every one of them represents a race,"

he reads to himself.

"What's amazing is that they are not just born, but these Gods cultivated magic."

He flips the page and reads further

"The Human God, The Elven God, The Dwarven God, The Demon God, The Draconic God, The Mermaid God, and The Beast God."

The more he read, the more intrigued he becomes about the world of magic and the different races and Gods that inhabit it.

The remainder of the book is dedicated to detailing the territories and kingdoms controlled by different races.

As Damon reads through the different eras, he notices that humans have the least amount of land and influence. There were three eras in total, with the Primordial Era being the most brutal and horrific.

During this time, humans were treated as slaves and were viewed as inferior by other races. They had not yet discovered the mystic power of magic and mana that would eventually allow them to rise and claim their place in the world.

In the Dark Era, humans fought back against the oppression of other races after discovering the secrets of magic cultivation. Despite starting from a disadvantaged position, with shorter lifespans and weaker bodies, they persevered and carved out a territory for themselves on the continent.

Now in the God Era, after countless sacrifices to perfect the system of magic and create the Arcane Path, humans have become equal to other races in the eyes of many. The rise of Tristan Silva, the Human God, symbolizes the evolution of humans and their growing power and influence in the world.
