The world around Rio dissolved into a blur of light, and then there was nothing. He didn't know how he died. One moment he was in his room, playing his favorite RPG, the next... he found himself in a new, unfamiliar place.
He gasped for air, his chest rising sharply. When his eyes opened, he saw a bright, blue sky above and the canopy of trees around him. His surroundings were completely different from anything he had ever seen. Rio stood up, feeling a strange sensation coursing through his body. It was as if his entire being had been transformed.
He looked down at his hands. They were strong, lean, and glowing faintly with an ethereal light. His body felt different—stronger, more alert, yet lighter. The air around him seemed to hum with magic. He wasn't sure what was happening, but one thing was clear: this was no ordinary world.
Rio's heart raced as he reached out with his senses. He could feel... magic. Fire, water, earth, wind—elemental forces surged through him, more than he ever thought possible. It wasn't just one element; it was all of them, flooding him with energy.

"All elements... This is insane," Rio muttered under his breath, trying to absorb the shock. It was like he had been given a cheat code in a game—a power that most would dream of.
A strange voice suddenly echoed in his mind. "You've been reincarnated. Welcome to the world of Althira. Your journey begins now."
The voice seemed to come from everywhere, but it left him no room for questions. Rio had no idea where or what this world was, but he had to move forward. He was alive again, with powers beyond his imagination. He had a new life to shape.
Taking a deep breath, Rio focused on his surroundings. The forest was dense and quiet, but he could sense something—or someone—nearby. He instinctively gripped his sword at his side, feeling the familiar weight of it.
A rustling noise interrupted the silence, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching. Someone was coming.
