chap 1 THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ZERO
Zero 05 is an anomalous planet, trapped in a war cycle for tens of thousands of years. Unlike any other planet in the universe, Zero 05 exists with four main species:Humans – intelligent, resilient, united but also easily divided by greed and fear.Demons – brutal, powerful, driven by the laws of power and revenge.Ghosts – invisible, ancient, emotionally driven, living off the fear of other creatures.Monsters – mutated creatures from the planet's rage, without reason, only knowing destruction.War breaks out between species for no apparent reason – it seems that the planet itself forces them to fight. There are times when humans and demons allied against monsters, then humans betrayed demons. Every treaty, every agreement is broken over time.That cycle lasted for over 20,000 years, burying millions of civilizations. Until... he appeared. No one knows his real name. No one knows where he came from. Only that when he appeared, the balance changed.They called him Zero, because he was of no race, had no homeland, no bloodline, no past. He carried within him something the world had never seen: faith.Zero was not just a warrior. He was a leader. In less than a decade, he united all of humanity, uniting every race – from nomadic warriors in the desert to scholars hiding underground – into a single empire: the Human Alliance.Under Zero's leadership, humans repelled the demons, destroyed the giant monsters that had ravaged the southern continent, and even signed a temporary peace treaty with the Ghosts – something no one had ever done in the history of Zero 05.Zero did not fight with weapons – he fought with ideals. He believed war was something imposed by the planet, but not destiny. And then... In the year 99999, after the greatest battle in history at the Ash Valley, where all four races fought at once, Zero personally led the army to deliver the final blow. The battle ended in an overwhelming victory for humanity.And that was the last time... anyone saw him.No body. No blood. No last words.Just an empty space.Zero's disappearance sent shockwaves through the human empire. The human empire split in just three years. Lands fell into civil war. Treaties were broken. The cycle of war began again, this time faster and more brutal.Only one thing remained from the Zero era: the Prophecy of the Twelve – a note found carved into an ancient stone where he once stood:"One Zero is gone. Twelve will be reborn. They are not called Zeros because they are strong – but because they can change the truth. When the 12th awakens, the wheels of war will crumble."From then on, "Zero" ceased to be a name. It became a title – reserved for those chosen by the planet.But... thousands of years passed, and no one was chosen. No "Zero" appeared.Until the year 102394.
