《System of Gods and Devils》Chapter 1: Prologue
Advertisement
A Typical Sunny day morning, where the birds were chirping, cats and dogs lazing around the streets, youths wearing school uniform busy chatting and laughing on their way to school.
The youth seemed to be attracting a lot of attention. For Roger Dream, this was just a regular occurrence in his everyday life.
Roger Dream was handsome and a kind-looking, young man. He had short black hair with a white skin tone and a little bit of tan, which made him look elegant and attractive.
Roger Dream thought inside his mind, "What's wrong with these people?”
Today, he was attracting a lot more attention compared to the other days. He was walking with a group of beautiful girls. Notably, the girl walking side by side with him was so beautiful which made the passer-by comment "A match made in heaven" But the girl seemed immune to all the comments from the outside, but she was quite embarrassed inside.
Xinyi Chang never thought that her decision to walk with Roger Dream to school would cause so much disturbance.
Roger noticed a lot of hatred and jealousy from the boys of the same school. He was popular with the girls from his school, because of his kind-hearted nature, he never really attracted hate from other boys. But today was an exception, so it made him feel weird.
It’s because Xinyi is considered the School's Beauty and an Angel inside every boy's heart. And today, the Angel is walking with someone else, how could they not hate him?
As both of their families were wealthy, Xinyi Chang got acquainted with Roger Dream by their parent’s compulsion. And accompanying him to school was his mother's idea.
In-School, Roger Dream only had one or two classmates to talk to, due to his introverted nature. But during the lunch, his classmates rounded him up and started firing questions about Xinyi Chang and how he got accompanied to her.

Roger Dream was shocked and at the same time was feeling a little happy. He never thought that a day would come where his classmates would take the initiative to become friends with him. He always wanted to go to karaoke and game center like places with friends. And today his wish came true.
A group of boys invited him to karaoke after 6 pm.
Roger Dream thought, "Finally, the start of fun school days, thanks to the girl Xinyi." He was very excited that he finally got to make friends with his classmates and change his lonely school life to a livelier one.
So, he quickly went to the spot an hour before the planned time. As he was walking, he saw a beggar crying for food and carrying a little child with him.
Roger Dream pitied the child’s future. Roger Dream was a kind-hearted boy and always eager to help the person in need. Seeing the child and the beggar made his heart sad.
Roger Dream asked, "Hey old man, Is that your child?”
The beggar replied in a weak voice, "Yes."
Roger Dream bought dozens of snacks and drinks for the karaoke party and also bought 1,000 dollars with him in his wallet. He gave the snacks to the beggar and some money to buy some milk for the child.
Roger Dream quickly retrieved a 100 dollar note, "Hey old man keep this money and buy some milk for the child and eat those snacks to relieve your hunger for now." he said.
After that, he left.
The old man was speechless; he never saw a 100 dollar in his entire life. A hundred dollars can be considered months’ worth of good food and shelter for him. Rather than gratefulness, a look of greed appeared on the beggar's Eyes.

Suddenly, the Beggar yelled, "Young master, Please wait!"
As Roger Dream turned around, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his Abdomen. He saw the weak old man was making an ugly face and kept mumbling, "I am sorry! I am Sorry! I'm sorry!"
Confused, Roger Dream looked down and saw a Rusty old Knife was stuck to his Abdomen. And the Blood keeps dripping from the knife’s edge.
The old man took Roger Dream's wallet slowly and ran through the alley; he even left the child behind. Only then, Roger Dream knew how cruel the old man was.
Roger Dream started regretting his decision and started mumbling to himself, "Why? Why? Why?" Is this how I get repaid for my kindness? Is this how people are cruel in this world?
Roger Dream's conscience started to fade away. He could hear the crying of a woman nearby and the voice of a middle-aged man trying to console her.
A Doctor looked at the couple and said, "I am sorry! We could've saved him if the knife your son got stabbed with is a normal one. But the knife, killer used was rusted and infected with the blood of rats, dogs, and who knows whatever. The infection has spread over his wound to his heart, we've tried our best. My condolences.”
Roger Dream's consciousness finally faded and died with loud crying sounds of his parents.

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)
