Lord of the Karmic Fate

Chapter 11 Massive Changes (3-Last)



Earth, the year 2055.

After the end of the Third World War which brought humanity almost to the brink of total annihilation, people were forced to realize that to live a better tomorrow they must join hands, help each other, and put all the conflicting views to the side.

Of course, it was easier said than done but after the year 2031, two years after the end of the Third World War, the United World League was successfully established and immediate changes took place.

All borders got erased and all the existing countries, or at least those that remained or were reconstructed after the war became one!

Natural resources and different technologies had been shared without regulations, the whole world was put under the same system without damaging or destroying past and ancient cultures, the primary language became English for every human, and a new currency was created that was used in every corner of the new world known as Novas!

From that point onward, and with other minor and somewhat greater changes, Earth and humanity were finally pushed back onto the path they should have walked ever since the start!

Developments on almost every point on Earth happened on a large scale, technology advanced at an outstanding pace while starvation, water shortage, violence, and environmental problems literally vanished!

Naturally, this didn't mean everything was ideal, far from it. This was not a fairy tale where everything was perfect so it was inevitable to meet with problems here and there.

For instance, while the numbers decreased greatly there still were people and families who lived in poverty, there still were individuals and groups that tried to break the new world's order, and there were still some superficial issues among people which unfortunately couldn't be erased as they were part of human nature.

However, as these problems were relatively small in rate, the United World League had no problem at all keeping control, protecting peace, and concentrating on creating a better world where the mistakes from the past will never be repeated!

Unfortunately, however, nothing can last forever, not even peace...

Sitting on a luxurious tufted leather chair that alone could be sold for an astronomical fortune, Raven watched with a scarcely tense but nonchalant face as Old Dan examined him in silence.

The two of them sat before each other, neither of the two talking for several minutes straight.

Though, this only lasted for about less than three minutes before Old Dan finally moved and placed the black book given by Etia onto the desk.

"Have you opened it yet?"

Upon hearing the simple question Raven shook his head, stating an obvious reply.

"I see, as I have thought." Old Dan let out a soft sigh and said, "Then go on, open it."

Although Raven had no idea why Old Dan wished him to open the manual at this moment he still nodded and did as he was told.

Taking the manual out of his pocket, Raven grabbed the top edge of the small book and opened it carefully. However, when he did, his eyes widened.

"This... Why is this empty?" Raven asked dumbfounded as he watched how every page of the manual was empty.

Every single page was blank, containing no words at all!

"Just give it a second." Old Dan asserted calmly which Raven found confusing but soon understood why.

Just three seconds after he opened the book, like in some kind of fantasy movie the first page of the book started to get filled with words one after another.

--------------

• Basic Instruction

• Avatar Information

• Artifact Information

• Realm Game Difficulties

• Realm Game Requirements

<Knowledge in the Worlds' Clash Manual solely depends on what you have discovered so far!>

--------------

"Solely depends on what I have discovered so far?" Raven raised a brow and unconsciously raised his head to look at Old Dan who just simply gestured at him to proceed on looking at the manual.

"Try and focus on either one of the five texts presented before you."

Raven although confused still nodded and concentrated on the second option.

And under his startled gaze, as if the book had its own consciousness, the pages within it began to move, quickly reaching page number 4!

--------------

[Avatar Information]

• Strength: Avatar Trait improving raw physical power!

• Mystique: Avatar Trait allowing to use various Abilities/Skills/Techniques!

• Vitality: Avatar Trait expanding your health and the amount of damage you can take before death!

• Constitution: Avatar Trait enhancing Stamina/Endurance/Physical Toughness!

• Dexterity: Avatar Trait boosting Reflexes/Body Coordination/Agility!

• Speed: Avatar Trait increasing Reaction Speed/ Attack Speed/Movement Speed!

--------------

'So that's why.' Raven thought in his heart as it seemed his guess considering which Avatar Trait enhanced which aspect of his body was correct.

Then, out of curiosity Raven concentrated on the first option Basic Instruction to which the manual in his hand reacted and quickly flipped back to page number 2.

--------------

• Worlds' Clash, universal competition among all living races in existence until only one stand!

<31 days, 23 hours, and 12 minutes before the start of the first round!>

--------------

"W-What?!" Raven's eyes widened and to make sure he didn't read the words wrong he re-read everything once again.

But even then, everything remained the same.

Old Dan leaned a bit forward and once both his elbows were placed on the desk and his fingers interlocked with each other, placed just before his mouth, he began to speak;

"Although it is hard to say much less admit it, it is an undeniable fact that massive changes will now occur in the following one month and the world we have known until now sooner rather than later will change in its whole."

After he said those words, Old Dan lowered his arms and extended his right hand toward Raven he showed him his right ring finger.

"These Artifacts... As that deity called them. They will change the whole structure of our current beliefs and I didn't even talk about our Avatar Traits or those weird Realm Games!"

Whoosh!

Upon saying those words, Old Dan waved his primary hand and quickly summoned a floating magic panel before Raven, showcasing him his Avatar Traits.

~~

° Vitality: 4 [0]

° Mystique: 0 [0]

° Strength: 4 [5]

° Speed: 1 [0]

° Constitution: 0 [0]

° Dexterity: 0 [0]

~~~

"Huh?" Raven became dumbfounded but not because of that he was able to see Old Dan's Avatar Traits but because of the way Old Dan has allocated his 9 points!

"Four to both Vitality and Strength, one to Speed, and nothing at all to the other three Traits? Also, what is that extra five beside your strength?" Raven asked, confused.

"Haha, well, as I didn't know what to expect I distributed all my points into Traits that I understood and considered could be useful. As for that extra five points, that is because of this."

Raising his right hand Old Dan pointed at his left shoulder where a small black mark representing a small rock was visible.

"What's that? A tattoo?"

"You don't recognize this?" Old Dan raised a brow before his eyes flashed gently and asked, "You didn't collect your rewards yet, did you?"

"Huh? No, not yet." Raven mumbled but after seeing the gaze Old Dan gave him he seemed to understand what was going on so quickly summoned the magic panel through which he could collect his rewards.

Or at least wished to but as he didn't know how to do so he showed a rather awkward smile and asked, "So... How do I collect my rewards again?"
