《Soldiers of Mana》Chapter 1 - This is our world
Advertisement
Humankind is born capable of manipulating mana projected around them like an aura, strengthening the body, and mind. Strengthening with mana can go even further as to be projected on the weapon the individual is using, this can increase the sharpness, durability, even penetration power of projectiles. Martial prowess is defined based off of the combat efficiency tied together with the quality, and amount of mana one has. Humans cannot increase the amount of mana they have, but they can train it to be more refined as well as collect condensed mana from nature using it as a resource to power machinery and other types of technology. Most warriors leak out their mana aura to show their strength which can be used to repel threats in the wild or to intimidate an opponent.
Just like water vapor, mana is in the surrounding air mixing to condense into raindrops creating a high desire to gather at the source. The nomadic sky nation of Ailiven sails through the sky controlling most of the mana pools creating friction among the nomadic sea nation of Lorerien, and the Kingdom of Ayria who controls the land. During one of the nation of Ailiven’s expeditions to a recently formed mana pool, the mana gathering ship came in contact with an Ayria gathering ship, with Ailiven’s warrior based mentality, insufficient restraint, and desire for the resource, a battle ensued. Ailiven managed to shoot down the enemy ship but an engine was tagged in the process, they were losing altitude but they managed to get some survivors onto the life raft before the ship plummeted to the earth.
Five years have passed...due to the continuous aggression of Ailiven, war broke out causing both factions to desperately increase their war potential. Ailiven’s soldiers looked through orphanage's on their own ships searching for prospects they can raise and train into next-generation weapons with the new technology they have been working with, creating loyal slave soldiers with abnormal abilities that will excel in suicide missions, special op missions, recon, and assassinations. While aboard one of the middle sectors ships that housed an orphanage they came across a boy, and two girls that they could sense a healthy dense mana coming from, and if trained could have potential, so they brought them back to the base where they would implant mana machines. Human created mana that acts as an organic creature creating a frequency allowing others to connect as one, sharing desired thoughts even awareness of surroundings. Unfortunately for the three children, they happened to be testing another concept known as mana cores for a secret test run of elite soldiers.

Mana cores are devices created to circulate the mana within, automatically training the effectiveness of mana projection and mana manipulation. The strain and instability the core can cause in one’s body is dangerous, and painful, but would allow the individual to develop at an exponential rate. After carrying out the implant the soldiers dragged the unconscious young boy down a dim hallway, where he was brought into a cell and tossed onto a hard mattress covered by a thin itchy blanket while three others stared at the young boy from their bunks, before looking back towards the soldiers with caution on their faces. “Good luck boy”… said one of the guards as they exited the cell in a loud fit of laughter that echoed through the hall.

Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel (An Irreverent Fanfiction)
Fates Parallel is a gripping cultivation story, following the adventures of a half-spirit girl with nothing as she grows both as a cultivator and as a person after arriving at the Grand Academy of Spiritual, Martial and Arcane Arts. It features fleshed-out, believable characters, wonderful world-building that informs the course of the plot, and girls who hold hands. Fates Parallel is a very good story, and you should read it! Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel is a somewhat tongue-in-cheek look at this same world from a different angle, following a totally regular girl who brings bad luck with her wherever she goes. It features shallow, joke-name characters, a focus on the least interesting parts of a fantastic world, and girls who hold hands (potentially). Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel is an amazingly hilarious (so says me) fanfiction and you should read it! (This is a Totally Author Approved Spin-Off (Fanfiction) for Fates Parallel, which you can find in a number of places including here on RoyalRoad! Please do read it!)

Natural Slave
Those who are as different from other men as the soul from the body or man from beast are slaves by nature.

It is not advantageous for one to be held in slavery who is not a natural slave, for such a condition is sustained solely by force and results in enmity. Not all slaves are in chains. Not all slaves even realize that they are slaves. What is the truth of this world? The Logos are the Words of God. Time waits for man.
