"world's restrictions, quite an interesting title, let's check it out" I said opening the book.
[World's restrictions]
It is basic knowledge that there are three main realms the Divine realm, Human realm and the Demon realm. The shadow realm is more like a sub realm and there are restrictions that keeps us a sub realm and they are
Birth restrictions: a shadow can not reproduce, a shadow has nothing to do with giving life. The only way a shadow is born is if their human self is born as well. Baby shadows are born in a sacred alter that's now called temple of birth with only three in entire shadow realm. Second restriction is
Light are forbidden: any bright form of light can kill a shadow that's why our sun and moon don't shine brighter than the moon of the human realm. We can't have Traits that are associated with light like fire and more. But some shadows tend to have more resistance to light abilities like the Vulcan family. Third is
Human connection: It is the most basic restriction that all shadows know about. Fourth restriction is
Human possession: shadows are forbidden to possess a human as some shadows have done in the past. In the wall of commandments it is written that a shadow must not steal a human body as the punishment is to be hunted down by DIVINE apostles.fifth is
Communication with other realms: communicating other realms are strictly forbidden. Shadows are not allowed to communicate with humans or demons, some might think that this restriction is useless but it is necessary for our survival as demon despise us and sees us as lessers while the humans are protected by the divines and nobody wants to hunted by the DIVINES. Last restriction is
The Abyss: this might not be a general view but our world is right on top of the abyss making the lands barren and on top of that not all lands have been explored yet due to the dense shadow energy and karma with ancient beasts and king ranked shadow creepers dwelling in such areas restricting the expansion of livable areas and slowing down the technological advancements of the shadow realm.
"Wow that's was entertaining, I should visit this wall of commandments, it sounds like it holds a lot of information...wait according to this book communication with other realms are forbidden but Jin brought me here and we are merged now and we look the same !! So so so I will be hunted down by the DIVINES!!! Fuck Fuck Fuck !!! What do I do I can't fight what I think is an angel, those guys are literally gods....
*Knock* *Knock**Knock*
"The fuck, am not expecting anyone so who could that be, could it be the divines but why would they knock, they would have busted down from the roof right???. *Sigh* just go open the door .
I walked to the door slowly filled with anxiety and opening it slowly and stopped halfway to see who it was at the door it was ???
"Hello sir am looking for sir Jin?" ??? asked.
Which I replied "that's me" .
" Great, am cyan a messenger from the explorers guild HQ we got a recommendation from sir Chaoxiang who is one of our major sponsors. Sir Chaoxiang informed us that even if you are not an official scholar yet, you are one of a kind and recommends you to work with us. A scholar spot opened up recently and our gulidmaster is wondering if you could come fill that spot, The exploration team leaves five days from now please come before then" cyan says as he then takes his leave.
Whaaa??
I went back inside and slowly back to the study room, dropped on my chair to think of my next course of action
"The explorers guild have read about them, they are a guild created to explore the Abyss Zones. They have two main goals first is to map out entire the shadow realm, second is to expand the livable areas.
To join the explorers one's shadow core must be at the REAWAKENED STAGE with PEAK LEVEL traits and must be a master in martial arts."
"Shadow core?? REAWAKENED STAGE?? PEAK LEVEL what now?? ...
Sounds like a anime power system to me" I said with a little laugh
"Back to the topic at hand this might be a good thing cause I can't stay here for long because of the DIVINES and even if am on the run I will be payed for it with approximately 500,000 Donn sun steel which is about 220,000,000 In dollars back on earth which is because sun steel are diamonds on earth.
"Well I should continue reading my books to pass time but I can't continue the world restriction book anymore because I already remember what's in it already" I said as I looked around for a new book to read.
{Shadow realm's Power system with brief explanation for younglings}
"Well I kinda guessed there was a power system earlier..... Hmm what level am I then.... Fuck I don't remember. Let's just read first"
[POWER SYSTEM]
There are several powers in the shadow realm but only two are open to the vast population of the shadow realm which are Shadow energy and karma energy.
Shadow energy to shadows is as important as oxygen to humans. Shadows have a core that help them regulate shadow energy in their body and that core is as important as a heart is to humans.
As a shadow grows in stages the core allows him/her to be able to perform things that a human won't be able to comprehend.
The stages are:
UNAWARE STAGE: this is the lowest stage for a shadow's and are mostly occupied by children from the age 1- 13. At this stage they know nothing about shadow energy.
AWARE STAGE: this stage allows the shadow to see shadow energy with the impurities in it, they are can also feel the energy around them and with some breathing techniques they can take in pure shadow energy and advance to the next quickly.
AWAKENED STAGE: this stage doubles the shadows physical abilities.
REAWAKENED STAGE: this stage triples the shadow's physical abilities but it takes a lot of pure/dense shadow energy with a powerful breathing techniques to achieve.
MASTER STAGE: this is a unique stage that not only multiplies the shadow's physical abilities but also gives them the ability to manipulate the shadow energy in them allowing them to manipulate their body structure.
GRANDMASTER STAGE: this stage is the highest stage for shadow energy. This stage not just allows you to manipulate the shadow energy in the body but also allows the shadow to manipulate the shadow energy around them .
Karma energy the second energy opened to the vast majority of the shadow realm but it's just a fuel for your traits. Traits are abilities given to all shadows.....
" Ahhhhh fuck the sudden remembrance mid read is very annoying now i can't even continue anymore" i said with an facial expression of an anger child from one those tiktok meme videos.
"Well that's enough reading for now" I said looking around not knowing what to do next.
