My Divine Pet System

C2 – Desolate Era

“Hongyu, what’s happening? Are you not feeling well?” Bo Miaojiao asked with evident concern after noticing something off about Qin Hongyu’s demeanor.

“It’s nothing… Don’t worry about me,” Qin Hongyu responded almost instinctively.

Yet, inside, his heart was churning with excitement. He couldn’t help but think, “Is this the legendary system I’ve heard about? But… what’s its purpose?”

Silence was the only reply Qin Hongyu received, as if the voice in his mind had never existed.

Had he not felt a distinct change in his body, he might have doubted his sanity, wondering if it had all been an illusion.

“So, I’ve got a mute system, huh? But if I heard correctly, I’ve awakened the Battle Spirit Bloodline! That means I’m eligible to enroll in the Battle Spirit Academy!” Qin Hongyu was elated at the realization.

The homeroom teacher gingerly set the Spirit Summoning Pearl on the lectern, adjusted his glasses, and announced, “I know many of you have been eagerly anticipating this moment. This Spirit Summoning Pearl will determine if you possess the Battle Spirit Bloodline. Those wishing to take the Martial Exam, please form a line for testing. Anyone with the Battle Spirit Bloodline, regardless of its strength, is eligible to take the exam.”

His announcement set off a flurry of activity as students clamored to the front, each one anxious to discover if they carried the Battle Spirit Bloodline.

The podium was quickly engulfed in a sea of bodies, all crowding around the Spirit Summoning Pearl, each face alight with hope for the future.

Three hundred years prior, Geaster had endured its most catastrophic disaster in history. The sky was torn asunder by massive Cracks of Darkness, and the heavens were marred with these sinister fissures.

Through these cracks, people glimpsed into bizarre realms and beheld creatures of legend. In Xaprassau, there were even sightings of dragons!

These were not the dinosaurs of the Jurassic era, but divine dragons with antlered heads and serpentine bodies, masters of the clouds and fog.

Each crack revealed a different vista. While dragons appeared in the cracks over Xaprassau, in Northern Europe, onlookers witnessed Demon Beasts from Norse mythology, like the colossal Jormungand, the earthly python that could encircle half the continent.

The emergence of the Crack of Darkness brought an onslaught of monsters to Geaster, plunging its native creatures into a frenzy of mutations and ancestral reversions. Beasts once deemed harmless to human dominion grew increasingly formidable, as if the gods were mocking mankind. Yet, amidst this upheaval, humans remained unchanged.

This era marked the bleakest century for humanity, casting Geaster back into a bygone desolate era. Despite their technological prowess, humans could barely eke out an existence against the onslaught of terrifying Demon Beasts.

Nuclear weapons, the sole force capable of challenging these mighty creatures, offered a temporary reprieve. But the ensuing radiation only hastened the monsters’ evolution, exacting a dire toll on humanity.

Nevertheless, hope for mankind was not extinguished. At the brink of despair, humanity unearthed a hidden key within their own bloodline—the Battle Spirit Bloodline. Through the Battle Spirit Awakening Ceremony, individuals could call forth their personal battle spirits, and by diligently cultivating them, humans gained the means to stand against the monstrous tide.

Thus emerged the most revered vocation on Geaster—the Battle Spirit Fighter.
