Prologue

Trillions of years ago, there existed a legendary land called Myth Of The Dawn. Legend said that there was a kind of life there. That being is beyond what any kind of creature could imagine.

No amount of words could describe the unmatchable scenery and the abundant things that existed in that legendary land. No one knew what existed there except for 'that being'.

At that time, there were no races. Legend also presumed that there was a creator who lived there; how to say that? The legend also didn't know what kind of being that was.

So, the "nature" word has been mentioned to name that unrevealed being. From millennium to millennium, almost infinity centuries in the infinity centuries, nothing has changed.

Until one day, unspecified time, Nature started to create another being called "The Creators". Nature granted them power and ability beyond their reach.

There were four kinds of creators with different abilities and powers.

The Creator of Time, who created the sun and the moon,.

The Creator of Life created the lives of the creatures of different races.

The Creator of Power who created the strange power and offered it to those races.

The Creator of Space, who created uncountable continents in each space and universe to let those races inhabit.

Then, those Creators lived in the legendary land, Myth of The Dawn, to serve their master 'Nature'.

Before serving their master, those Creators created another being called 'The Controllers".

There were 6 Controllers.

The Controller of Life.

The Controller of Death.

The Controller of the Sun.

The Controller of the Moon.

The Controller of the Power.

The Controller of Space.

The Controller of Life controls the life of the creature, while the Controller of Death controls the death of the creature.

The Controller of the sun controls the daytime, while the Controller of the Moon controls the nighttime.

The Controller Of The Power granted those creatures the power based on the races of the creature and the space and time that the creature lived in.

'Myth of The Dawn' was named because everything started on that land. I liked the first appearance of light in the sky before sunrise in the darkness.

The infinite universe began to envelope itself in spiritual and magical power. Immortals, gods, fairies, mythical creatures, and cultivators have emerged one after another since then.

[Year 2023, China, Earth]

In one of the universes, there existed a planet called Earth. Human beings and animals lived there. Humans have no power such as flying, moving mountains, or summoning thunder from the sky. But they have the most powerful intelligence inside their brains.

Human beings created awesome technology, inconsistent civilizations, astonishing cultures, artistic lifestyles, and many more. Humans can talk to each other even if they are in different countries or places.

Humans can travel thousands of miles a day using advanced transportation. Humans can fly high in the sky, look at the white cloud, and take a closer look at birds in the sky.

Humans can dive into the deep sea to find more amusing creatures using the advanced technology device. Humans can explore the space. But....who know? Are these what human beings are capable of?

The girl was sitting on a chair under the peach blossom tree, bowing her head to read an old book. The petals scattered everywhere on the land, and several petals fell on her thin shoulders.

"Girl, what are you reading?" A middle-aged man could be seen wearing a long pant and T-shirt. He was just wandering around the garden when he stopped by something that attracted his attention.

"The Ethereal Myth." A girl around 19 years old, wearing a university uniform, showed the book to the man. Her eyes were as clear as water, but the way that she communicated with people was a little stiff and dull.

"The Ethereal Myth? Is it a famous book that was kept inside an old library in the city and talked about some kind of legendary land called The Myth of the Dawn?" He asked while taking the book from the girl's hand.

She nodded.

"Girl, stop reading this. This kind of book just exists to cheat the kids into fantasy things. What kind of things was that so exaggerated to describe?" He exclaimed as if he could not accept the contents of the book.

"Beside, who knows where this book came from? I accidentally saw this book posted by someone inside the internet platform." No wonder he was attracted by her just because she was reading a book that was extremely weird.

"You better go study and keep working hard. Don't spend your time on this meaningless thing. Look around. Which era are we now in? Modern! The technology is great, the people are perfect, and the civilizations are improving in a prosperous direction."He looked at the high and exquisite modern architecture buildings around her, then stuffed the book back into her arms as he frowned.

"Did you read the book?" She looked at him.

"Yes!"

"Have you finished it?" 

"I have! I have read everything inside the book! Look, every page contained weird words and information. The more I read, the more I felt that everything in the book is just a messy story that confuses people's minds. He explained as he hugged his hands and shook his head.

"Oh!" She nodded as if she understood him.

"..." The man looked at her in puzzlement. Why is this girl nodding?

Then he twitched his lips and was speechless. He just told her to stop reading the useless book and not waste a second on it. But he, himself, has finished reading the useless book.

He wasted his time reading this book on the internet. Who knew? The more he read, the more he felt that everything inside the book was unbelievable and exaggerated.

But he can't deny that the contents of the book were extremely tempting.

The more he read, the more he wanted to know, even though he never believed in the things the book mentioned.

"What kind of miracle? Immortal? Magic? Don't be kidding me!" He touched his nose in embarrassment as he pretended to be mad at the one who wrote the book.
