From what I noticed when going outside with my parents, it seemed that this world is based on “soul power” and “abilities”. Better said, what the workers, for example, did in my world with tools and mana in this world is done using “soul power” and “abilities”.
Soul power, as the name implies, is power from our soul. In this world, we use the power and abilities of everyday life to make a living, and because of this power, we have all sorts of jobs.
The most known are the hunters, who protect the people from all dangers and monsters that appear, and they take general care of the portals that appear randomly through the kingdom.
In the kingdom we live in, called Almadium, these portals, who are a concentration of soul energy and who create gates from our world and the so-called dungeons, create cracks in the space connecting our world with another dimension, and the only way to stop it is to destroy the source, who can be anything from an artefact to a monster and even a riddle.
Nobody knows exactly what dimension the dungeons appear from, it's one of the great questions of the kingdom's history.
In my opinion, I believe that these portals do not appear randomly, there is something or someone who is behind all this because otherwise, all this doesn't make any sense because the portals don't appear in crowded places in general, they may appear on top of a mountain.
Hunters are the most powerful humans in the kingdom, mostly because of their control over their soul energy and ability efficiency. Most of them are trained how to use their soul energy in the renowned “Hunter Academy” where they are trained how to use their ability for combat and how to channel their soul energy throughout the body to be able to control it at ease.
As I said before, soul energy works like mana in fantasy novels or games. With training, meditation, and time, one could be able to use his soul energy like a new arm.
By meditating, you try to refine and understand your soul, making it work exactly as you want (for body enchantments, protection,etc.).
By training, you put into action what you have learned from meditating and try to combine your ability with your soul energy, making them work like one and time to be able to grasp or even increase your pool of soul energy.
To be able to do that, you need to think of your soul power as your blood, your ability as your muscles, and your body as the skeleton. The bones make the muscles move, and the blood activates the muscles and keeps them healthy, and the muscles finish what you wanted to do.
So, when one can use his body, soul energy and ability or abilities as walking or moving around, then you could say that your soul energy is perfectly in sync with your ability, and you can use your power at 100%.
Apart from hunters, the second main force in the kingdom are the mages. Mages are the ones who only use magic to fight. The big difference between mages and hunters is that hunters are way better in close combat and hand-to-hand combat, something that cannot be said about mages, who usually need time to cast their spells.
I'm not trying to make mages look bad because , there are mages who are good in close combat and are even more powerful than hunters, but in a team, hunters are the vanguard while the mages are the support and long-range fighters like the archers in an army.
The best school for mages is the Institute of Magic, which is the pinnacle of power, along with the Hunter Academy and the Royal College(everyone in their respective category).
Jin was one of the most powerful and respected swordsman in his world.After countless battles he got the surname Antares, the one who challenged war. As an orphan he gone through a thorny path to get this far, and as he gained status and power, he lost more and more of his friend, in the end realizing he end up alone.
One day, in a mission he was betrayed and killed by his apprentice, one of the people he trusted the most.
When he opened his eyes he realized he was born in a new world, a new chance at life. In this world magic and abilities were the norm.But even in this world dangers are lurking at every step. Will he be able to overcame his weaknesess in his past life and protect his loved ones and create a new destiny for everyone, or he will be consumed by his powerlessness and deafeted by the ghosts of his past.
