Synopsis
"Born with lightning. Haunted by shadows. Destined to change the world." In a world where every person awakens with either elemental energy or spiritual force, two paths shape destiny: Beast Knights—wielders of elemental beasts and weapons. Spiritual Masters—rare wielders of spiritual stars and ancient arts. Young prince Rudra Yan seems weak, forgotten by his empire after a mysterious monster attack nearly ended his life. But when he awakens his lightning element and refines a mythical Granth forged by his grandfather—half Griffin, half monster—the storm inside him begins to roar. At Medicine Hall Academy, Rudra meets Naran, a fierce halberd knight with a venomous bloodline, and Arie, a quiet girl with a tragic past, a butterfly tattoo only Rudra can see... and an ancient Granth once used to seal the Monster God. Together, they uncover secrets of their lineage, awaken deadly powers, and take their first steps toward mastering their destinies. But as ancient beasts stir and forbidden forces rise again... Will Rudra survive the Academic Arc and claim the title of Beast Knight? Or will the shadows of his past consume him before his legend begins !

Chapter 1 - The Awakening Path

A soft breeze rustled through the wildflowers. Sunlight shimmered gently across a quiet pond near the borders of the Kak Empire.

A boy lay beneath a tree, one hand resting on his chest, eyes closed as if dreaming.

In his mind—**her voice** returned.

A gentle touch ran through his hair. Then, a horrifying vision. A monstrous claw pierced her chest, and blood splattered across his skin.

> "Be brave... Be strong... The world needs you, Rudra."

He stirred, blinking slowly.

A voice shouted nearby.

A soldier in silver-black armor approached, boots crunching the grass.

> "This pond connects to the eastern sea. It's not safe to nap here!"

Rudra sat up, calm and expressionless.

> "I wasn't sleeping. I was... remembering."

The soldier frowned but softened.

> "Even so, your father is waiting. Hurry to the royal palace."

> "I'll be there soon."

He looked into the water. The reflection staring back at him wasn't a child—it was someone waiting to become something greater.

---

## **Scene: Royal Palace – Morning**

Inside the grand palace, Emperor **Gator Yan** stood tall in crimson robes. His eyes bore down on Rudra.

> "Rudra, have you forgotten? Today is your first day at Medicine Hall Academy."

> "No, Father. I remember."

> "Then get ready. You're not just anyone—you carry the name *Yan*."

Rudra nodded. In his room, he opened a sealed parcel from the academy—a freshly folded uniform bearing the emblem of the Medicine Hall.

He changed quietly. When he removed his shirt, a large scar across his chest was visible. His hand clenched into a fist.

> "One day… I'll kill every last monster."

---

## **Scene: Medicine Hall Academy – Gates of the Freshers**

Students gathered from across the empire—boys and girls between eight and fifteen years old, some gripping tokens, others their weapons.

As Rudra walked past, whispers followed him.

> "Isn't he too young?"

> "That's Prince Rudra Yan. What's he doing here?"

Rudra ignored them. His eyes stayed fixed on the towering marble structure of **Medicine Hall Academy**, one of the Nine Sacred Academies.

At the gate, a white-robed man stood waiting.

> "Rudra Yan," the man said. His long beard swayed in the wind, and his glowing blue eyes studied the boy. "You're the last to arrive."

His name was **Master Sak Kun**.

---

## **Class Begins – Foundations of Power**

Inside a wide marble hall, the students sat in a half circle. The walls shimmered with spiritual runes.

Master Sak Kun's voice rang clearly.

> "Today marks your first step. You stand at the beginning of two powerful paths. Every cultivator must choose one."

He raised his hand, and two glowing figures hovered above him.

---

## **The Two Paths of Power**

> "Each of you is born with either:

>

> * **Elemental Energy**: You may become a **Beast Knight**.

> * **Spiritual Energy**: You may become a **Spiritual Master**."

A few students raised their hands. One spoke up.

> "Master, what's the difference?"

Master Sak Kun nodded.

---

### **Beast Knights**

* Those born with **elemental energy** may awaken their **Elemental Core** and become Beast Knights.

* To begin cultivation, they must refine a **Beast Knight Granth**, which contains:

 * A **Beast Soul**

 * A **Weapon Form**

> "Upon choosing their Granth, it binds for life. A knight can only have **one elemental affinity**."

Each time they advance in rank, they unlock **two new elemental techniques** from their Granth automatically.

* There are **9 ranks** in total.

* To ascend between ranks, a Beast Knight must break through **seven chakra gates**, enhancing their strength, elemental capacity, and speed.

To break seals on their Granths, they must use **blood drops**.

---

### **Spiritual Masters**

* Born with **spiritual energy**, they awaken their **Spiritual Core** and cultivate it into **Spiritual Stars**.

* The number of stars they form reflects their mastery and level. There are **five spiritual levels** based on star count.

Spiritual Masters can:

* Break seals on granths using spiritual stars.

* Learn techniques from **Spiritual Technique Granths** (trap, seal, healing, offense, defense).

* Create both **Beast Knight** and **Spiritual Granths**.

* Produce **medicine pills** and **recovery potions**.

> "They may fight directly or support others from behind. But make no mistake—Spiritual Masters are the backbone of every great force."

---

## **A Sudden Announcement**

Master Sak Kun clapped his hands.

> "In three weeks, we begin the **Freshers Tournament**. You will form teams of three. The top team shall receive:

>

> * 5000 Medi Coins

> * One Tier-5 Beast Core

> * Recommendation to the Outer Academy Trials."

The hall exploded with excitement.

> "A Tier-5 core?! That's priceless!"

> "Only Beast Vein Knights can absorb that!"

Rudra, sitting silently, smiled faintly.

> "A Beast Core, huh? I might need one sooner than I thought."

 **Closing Scene**

As students filed out, a girl passed Rudra silently. Her aura was cold,

and her eyes sharp.

On her wrist shimmered a faint **butterfly-shaped mark**.

Rudra paused.

> "That mark... I've seen it before…"
