《Goblin Kingdom》Prologue

PROLOGUE
Once in the ancient times, when the world was just a lot of volcanos erupting, and there were a few people living in an isolated isle, the only isle that had a proper vegetation and water to host life, there lay a little village of 30000 people, the first ''kingdom'' to have ever existed. There was the concentration of all the MANA(the energy of the very world) that existed. Mana is the center of all Magic and later was born the only energy aside from it, BATTLE POWER. Though that's a story for another time.
In this very place they, and by they I mean the first five races to have ever existed(humans, goblins, vulcanic birds, fishes and brutes) lived peacefully, but these peaceful times were going to end quickly.
A short time after life came to be, an individual named Jonmar was born. He was a brute, but not the usual red skinned, one-horned, long-tailed ones. No, he was 3 times stronger than any brute to have ever existed; He had two horns, a deep black eye, his skin was blue and he didn't have a tail.
If he had just come to life and lived his life peacefully there wouldn't be much of a problem. But for an unknown reason, he had a strange feeling, one he couldn't explain. His heart desired more than just eat, be social, sleep and die. He wanted to dominate over everything he could, he wanted to give orders, do what he wished without any consequences to his acts.
That's how, with his superior talent, he started to gain more and more power to achieve his goal. In a short period of time, he got stronger than all of the 30000 individuals in the isle.
Then he started conquering all of the territories, and enslave all of the population just for the sake of this strange feeling. Every time he conquered a territory, his word became the truth in that place. He ruled as a dictator, without any consent for his people.

But his brother couldn't endure him being in the power alone. So secretly his brother, Heaven, created the evil spirits. Heaven imprisoned the souls of all the people Jonmar killed and transformed them into Dark mana, sentient individuals. With that, the first great revolution started. These 'evil spirits' as he called them, were stronger than most people in the world at that time, as they were born from anger and resentment toward the godking.
They fought more and more until there was only a tiny bit left of civilization. In the end, Heaven offered the Godking(his brother's new nickname)'s subordinates a part of his energy and the eradication of his entire evil spirit army if they rebelled against the Godking; They accepted and with the help of the entire civilization the mighty Godking Jonmar died dramatically.
Poor people, little did they know that Heaven wasn't the least bit better than his deceased brother. He put a seal on each individual alive so that they started using his energy in exchange for their lifeforce, lowering their life expectancy a lot and as if this wasn't enough evilness he even left the evil spirits alive.
The seal he put on civilization was in the coresoul, the very essence of each of them, so they couldn't break this seal. This very fact allowed Heaven to brainwash people by transforming them into his servants.
Heaven would be very satisfied if it wasn't for the fact that secretly somewhere in the evil spirit army a certain talented spirit was mutating. It was born from an anomaly in the evil spirit magic; Different from all other evil spirits, this special one had Mana and Battle Power as its power. It started to break the evil mana magic slowly and quietly and by the time it got free, It hadn't been discovered yet.

The Demon Emperor, as the spirit was called, ate a bit of Mana here or there for the sake of hiding(by that time, all of the Mana had been transformed to serve Heaven's purposes).
When Heaven found out about the Demon Emperor, It was too late. The Emperor had already secretly created a technique that gave his powers to another individual upon his death. This technique was the most dangerous thing ever, as it was created on the premise of surpassing the limits of the very will of the world that was Heaven.
Demon Emperor died and Heaven thought it was okay just to kill his descendants when he found them but he didn't expect that after some time, the strongest descendant found a way to camouflage the Demon Emperor energy and after he died, the last descendant to have ever existed was born.
By the time the world had life all over it. Continent Ember, Kingdom of Acacia, In the middle of an enormous forest, There lay a goblin camp. It was a typical goblin village, without anything much to talk about.
In a little and comfortable cavern, in the middle of 50 other baby goblins a little goblin that was just the same short green aberration the others were, with a brown short hair, was born. This baby would be very lucky if he survived, as almost all goblins in their growth period suffered from food shortage, or died when they started hunting.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.
