Grey Lockhart:
The main character of the story. Grey is originally from modern Earth; at 17, he was just a student with a strong passion for reading novels. This vast knowledge of fantasy and related genres makes him unusually confident in his ability to survive and thrive on Blue Star.
Grey is a chaotic neutral character—neither strictly good nor evil. Highly profit-oriented, he rarely takes action unless it directly concerns his family or close friends. He does not hesitate to use violence, even if it means killing, guided by his simple principle: "If someone intends to kill you, there is no need to spare them."
Though he possesses a kind and caring side, he rarely expresses it openly. Instead, it often comes across in ways that irritate or confuse others. He has a habit of cracking jokes in serious situations and turning unexpectedly serious when things appear non-serious, making him unpredictable in the eyes of others.
Top Three Evolutionary Paths:
Immortal Cultivation Path – Followers of this path pursue eternal life. By tempering their bodies, energies, and souls, they extend their lifespans beyond mortal limits. Their ultimate goal is to exist as long as the heavens themselves.
Martial Arts Path – Followers of this path forge indestructible bodies capable of enduring volcanic heat, shattering mountains with a single strike, and parting the seas with one hand. Their end goal is to achieve unrivaled strength and stand proudly alongside the heavens.
Esper Path – Followers of this path awaken the power of the mind to bend reality itself. With a single thought, they can twist the world into their desired form. In the end, they strive to become a force of control equal to the heavens.
Special Evolutionary Path:
Nexus Evolutionary Path – A mysterious path said to embody perfection itself. Unlike the three major paths, it has no records, no history, and no manuals to follow. The only known follower is Grey Lockhart, and only he is capable of practicing it. The purpose of the Nexus Path is to reach the Absolute Nexus—to stand at the center of all existence, surpassing even the limits of the heavens.
Known Ranks of Evolution:
1st Rank – A being who has undergone their first metamorphosis through evolution, transcending the limits of ordinary humans.
2nd Rank – A superhuman capable of destroying multiple buildings with ease, or evaporating an entire river with a mere snap of their fingers.
3rd Rank – A transcendental being who has undergone a second metamorphosis, ascending to an even higher plane of power. They possess the strength to cleave mountains apart or part the seas with a single gesture.
World:
Blue Star – A flat world twice the size of Earth, teeming with life and power. It is home to thousands of Power Cities and ten floating cities suspended in the endless sky. The entire world is overseen by the Federation Master and maintained by the Eterna System, ensuring order and balance across its vast lands.
Eterna System:
An ancient artifact AI unearthed by the pioneers of the Old Era, alongside the discovery of the three major evolutionary paths. The Eterna System governs Blue Star alongside the Federation Master, monitoring the flow of power, evolution, and civilization. Its origin and full capabilities remain shrouded in mystery, but its influence shapes the destiny of all who inhabit the world.
