Chapter 3. Ava
Ava is a 17 year old high school student who's world was thrown into chaos. Massive amount of people between the ages of 16 to 20 were taken from their world and teleported into the world of Ananta by unknown means. The number of people teleported is unknown but they all seem to have a connection that was formed upon their arrival in this new world, which allows them to detect and tell if others are from their world or from the world of Ananta.
Unfortunately Ava was dropped into the kingdom of Rosfield a small kingdom on the edge of civilization bordering the badlands where a multitude of creatures and monsters spawn. The kingdom of Rosfield is farily young only being around 300 years old which compared to the kingdoms surrounding it is very young.
To the East is the kingdom of Saxfon a thousand year old kingdom built in the mountains of Coarxe. This kingdom is rich with a strong defense and mining operation due to the nature of its land scape. To the north are the frozen plains of Burdloy this kingdom is in a winter 11 months out of the year but it is a trade hub for kingdoms further out of reach. To the East pass the Plains of Gashel lies the Fire Hearth Empire. This Empire is made up of many small islands and a continent that is half the known landmass of Kortabina the continent that Rosfield resides in. The Fire Hearth Empire has a strong navy that allows it to control the oceanic trade routes of the known world. This power is what led it to develop into a Empire of the sea.
Ava being transported into the kingdom of Rosfield was lucky and unlucky. For the kingdom borders the badlands which has more monsters there and unclaimed and unexplored land. This will help Ava and the rest of her people grow stronger and help provide for the kingdom through loot obtained through adventuring. The bad side is that it's close to the badlands which means it is attacked frequently by monster and neighboring fledgdoms. The thing that Ava or the descendants that the natives call them is that the kingdom but thinks them as a valuable asset and not some tool to be used. In comparison Saxfon thinks that these people from another world are just tools and are treated as such. They see them lower than the slaves they have but at the same time treat them like commoners of their kingdom so it leads to some strife between the groups.
There are many guilds in this world that span between all the different kingdoms that is the connection for the descendants to make with the outside world. There are three big ones which are the Trader's guild, Adventuring guild and Hunter's guild.
The Trader's guild is self explanatory what this guild does and it is prudent to know its the wealthiest out of the three but not the strongest in the terms of military might but this fluctuates often. The Adventurer's guild is built as a hub for receiving quest for gold or items from people posting quest. It is the main source of income for many mercenaries and the descendants. The Hunter's guild is the strongest militarily as the quest handed out by this guild is the hunting or almost genocidal obliteration of a monster type or race.
Ava was transported into Ananta a month ago and during this time she has attempted to grow stronger to help a certain family. When Ava first landed she was lost like many of her people and for the first few days wandered around the capital of the kingdom of Rosfield until deciding to leave and travel to a outskirt town called Ranvash. Upon arrival she found that it was a very impoverished town that is struggling to fend off the monster coming from the badlands. Ava at this moment decided she would grow stronger to help this town and kingdom from the badlands and conquer it.
For the next two weeks Ava hunted and battled the weaker monster like goblins and wolves that roam close to the town. Even after this time she was still weak compared to her comrades whom grew much stronger in this time compared to her.
There is a ranking system in place to determine ones power. The lowest power is F and the strongest being S. Ava was still an F ranked adventurer where others are entering E and D ranks at this time. The ranks are as follows from least to greatest F, E, D, C, B, A and S. These rankings are based on multiple aspects. Primarily being overall strength of the person. The skill and powers they possess. The last determining fact and also the least significant is the items and equipment they have.
Its important to not that F ranked adventurers are about twice as strong as the normal human and would have no to very minor powers if any. Now in between ranks is massive as a F ranked adventurer will struggle to defeat a newly appointed E ranked adventurer. As one grows in ranks so do the strength that multiplies hugely with every advancement.
The descendants have a inherent ability to grow much faster than the natives of the world. Leading many leaders to pay closer attention to rise of theses outsiders. This though is a blessing to the descendants, but it seems Ava does not have this ability. As she has been stuck in the bottom of the F rank for entire duration that she has been in this world. where as many have grown past this rank very quickly. This created a divide for Ava to others of her kind as many do not want to work with a "dud" descendent. Leading Ava to strike out alone a lot of the time.
This all changed one day when Ava was coming back from a hunt in the badlands and was crossing through the forest that runs along the badlands called Mido. She was following a old path that looked like it used to be a well built road, though now only a few bricks and crumbling walls is left and almost fully taken over by nature. She takes this path as it is a short cut compared to the more commonly used road towards the Adventurers outpost. Also this path is quite with a good scenery. To day though Ava decided to walk down a path that branched off to the left but looked like it still headed in the same direction of the main path.
It was on this path that her destiny or adventure would truly start or one could say be changed from what should have been the normal path she would have walked. All because a seemingly normal unremarkable sword laying on the side of the path shinning dully in the sun. Just waiting for the right person to happen upon it. Which seems that that time has finally come and what awaits would forever change the world.
