Milo Blaze opened his eyes to a world that wasn't his own. His last memory was a blur—pain, fire, the sensation of falling endlessly. And then, nothing.
Now, he lay on a stiff bed in a dimly lit room, staring at a cracked ceiling. His body felt different, stronger, younger. The moment he sat up, a rush of foreign memories flooded his mind—memories of this world.
A world where humans awakened supernatural abilities. A world where powerful beings, known as Awakeners, ruled society. Some controlled elements, others manipulated space, time, or even reality itself. It was a world of endless possibility—and terrifying danger.
Milo's heart pounded as he grasped the truth: He had reincarnated. His old life was gone. Now, he was Milo Blaze, a 16-year-old orphan from Haven City. And today… was his Awakening Ceremony.
The AwakeningThe Awakening Ceremony was a grand event held every year for those who reached sixteen. It was the moment when one's latent abilities manifested, determining their place in the world. Most prayed for elemental affinities—fire, wind, lightning. Some hoped for psychic abilities or enhanced physical traits.
Milo stood in the Awakening Hall, surrounded by nervous teenagers. A massive crystalline orb floated at the center, pulsing with energy. One by one, candidates stepped forward, placed their hands on the orb, and watched as their abilities were revealed.
"Next, Milo Blaze."
He swallowed hard and stepped forward. Whispers echoed around him.
"Isn't that the orphan kid?"
"Bet he gets something weak."
Ignoring them, Milo placed his palm against the orb. Instantly, a surge of energy raced through his body, and his vision blurred. Then, golden light erupted from the crystal.
[Awakening Complete: Ability – Mech Lord]
The hall fell silent. The examiner's eyes widened.
"A summoning-type ability?" someone whispered.
Before Milo could process it, a holographic screen appeared before him.
[Mech Lord: Grants the ability to summon mechanical constructs. Customization options: Unlimited.]
His mind buzzed with information. He could create mechs? No… customize them however he wanted?
A grin spread across his face.
The world of Awakeners had just changed forever.
