Prologue

Before there was form, there was energy.

Before there was life, there was will.

And before the world came to be, the Divine Energy existed — eternal, pure, and boundless.

From this cosmic energy, five beings emerged. Their power was absolute, their presence divine. These were the Five God-Kings, each reigning over a kingdom born from their very essence. Balance was sacred. Harmony was law. But nothing perfect lasts forever.

As ages passed, the Divine Energy began to awaken — not in the gods, but in mortals.

Some were born with eyes that shimmered with the echo of creation. Divine Eyes.

Eyes that awakened through trauma, through longing, through moments that branded the soul forever.

Each of the Five Kingdoms nurtured their own warriors, trained in divine techniques, forged to protect their lands — and their gods.

But in the shadows, others plotted.

They sought war between gods.

They longed for the fall of kingdoms.

 And they whispered of a world where mortals — not gods — ruled with stolen divinity.

In the heart of one such kingdom, a young man named Takao Takeda was about to begin his journey.

Not as a hero. Not yet.

But as a son, who wished only to help his mother...

…and to uncover the truth behind his father’s death.

He did not yet know that within him stirred a power ancient and forgotten.

And that his story... was the key to it all.

Fate had already begun to pull its strings.

Every step Takao took, every choice he would make, would bring the future closer — a future filled with trials, loss, but also hope.

In a world where energy flows through all things, power is not always what it seems.

And Takao would soon learn that the true journey is never the one you expect.

It is the one that changes you.
