Chapter 15: World background

There are many kinds of forces, like sects, kingdoms and also alliances between people with common interests, that have colluded together to better achieve their goals. Additionally, there are also entire races that are as strong or even stronger than some big forces on Red Star. 

One relatively big and powerful race mentioned in the information Thiago had received, were the Elven race, because they were all born with an exceptionally good wood affinity and would usually live long lives, which also meant that there existed many powerhouses in this race.

The problem was, that the Elven race had relatively low population, lived secluded in forests most of the time and was therefore not taken that seriously even though they were a relatively strong race and there were often cases of humans enslaving elves due to their boundless beauty.

Speaking of humans, this is a huge and powerful race, which had the potential, due to their sheer number of populations to dominate Red Star, but as it is said: Where there are humans there are conflicts. The humans often fight among themselves and have various small-scale wars, which diminishes their threat for the other races. The humans on Red Star are distributed to various places and different forces or kingdoms with different beliefs, rules and environments, so it is simply impossible for them to have a united front.

Nevertheless, the human race is still a very strong race due to their inherent potential, so one should definitely not underestimate them, just because they do not have peace amongst themselves from time to time. Well, this being said, other races naturally also have the problem of infighting amongst one another, since it is a kind of norm to have conflicts no matter the environment or race.

Although there are exceptions to this kind of norm, like the Elven race, because they are a truly harmonious race and do not have such inner conflicts. There are also other races like the dwarves for example, that are well versed in forging and live in hot areas most of the time, that do not have infighting.

Speaking up to this point, one may wonder why there is no mention of demon beast or magic beasts yet.

The reason for this is actually, that there is no exclusive beast race or demon beast race, because every beast type belongs to a different species and race. Let's take Thiago for example, he would belong to a Tiger race, if there were such a race, but it can also be that he exists as the only one left from his race, because from time-to-time entire races disappear in the long river of time and are never to be seen again due to dying out or being hunted by humans.

This is the case simply because of the vast difference in species, for example you can understand that rabbits do not like tigers, because the tigers like to eat them, naturally this is only an example, but it is almost how it is happening within the beast race. Additionally, many of the beast races have many conflicts and hostility with each other, so they also do not have a strong common front, which makes them rather vulnerable.

Talking about the hunting of beasts, we need to clarify first that not every human is hostile to beasts and there are even beast living in parts of human territory, but there are naturally also those that wholeheartedly hunt beasts for materials, pleasure and whatsoever reasoning they might have.

There is a rule set in joint coalition with many beast races and human forces, that only demon beasts are allowed to be hunted, but obviously not many people care about this rule.

The reason for this is also to a part, that every beast and demon beast contain a magic core, which is very valuable, because it can be refined into powerful magic treasures or be used for a faster cultivation, because the core contains all the mana amassed by the demon beast or beast in its lifetime, since it is the location where their cultivated mana wanders to and also what makes out their realm. Speaking of the magic core, normally the core of a beast or demon beast is being called demon core and not magic core, the magic core is just the general term. The main difference between demon beasts and normal beasts, is that normal beasts have sentience and demon beasts only act according to their instinct's just like normal animals.

There are obviously many more races, than just the ones mentioned until now, but that would take up way too much time to list them all, so these will have to suffice for now.

To further specify, in all the above races there are naturally many different kinds of forces also ranging from weak to strong.

Mentioning the forces, mostly we have many types of academies, sects and trade or business alliances in basically every place on Red Star.

There are also some forces like a certain special academy, that are completely independent of race and therefore have disciples from many different places and races. Those type of forces are basically the strongest, because they house people for every race, so not many people dare to attack, them because otherwise they will have to face the wrath of the many races that are represented in the academy as a consequence.

Now coming to a point that is very important for Thiago, information about his surroundings and the forest he is currently situated in.

The forest he is currently in is not a particularly special one, and does not hold any type of heavenly secret or treasure, like many possibly would have thought. The reason that there are not many humans in this forest is firstly that the next city is a little away and the second reason is that according to trustable sources a demon beast at the Superior Student realm is residing in the core area of the forest.

This realm is naturally nothing for some great forces or powerhouses, but for ordinary cultivators, this realm is already quite respectable, so that hardly any people dared to tread too deep into the forest in fear of alerting this demon beast.

This forest is situated in the territory of the human race and around 200 kilometres away from the forest is a city called half-moon city. This is also where the hunters had probably come from.

This city is also part of the Great Flame kingdom, which had been established by some powerful cultivator named "Flame Emperor Yuan Zhen" from the human race a long, long time ago and had been preserved until now with his descendants managing the present kingdoms affairs, thus also making them the acting royal family of this kingdom with the same surname Yuan.

This was all very important information for Thiago, because now he knew to not leave the forest unless he achieves a human form otherwise it, he will be prone to risk, and he doesn't like taking unnecessary risks for no especial reason.

Additionally, Thiago also finally got to know the prerequisites to achieving a human form as a beast.

The information stated that he only needed to reach the superior student realm and then he would be able to freely switch between his beast and human form.

Thiago frowned a little after digesting this bit of information, the reason being, that it sounded too easy to be true in his opinion.

He had anticipated it to be much more difficult and having stricter requirements, but it seemed as if he had thought wrong.

What he didn't know was, that it definitely wasn't just that easy and a beast that wanted to achieve a human form needed an extremely solid foundation as well as really pure mana or else the human form was unachievable with ordinary means. The reason this information was not imparted to him, was that he had only bought the [slightly more detailed basic Infromation about the current world], which naturally did not include every important detail, so it was understandable that it wasn't contained in it.

Nevertheless, this Information would have no impact on Thiago, because whenever he used [Essence] to increase his strength, the mana transformed by the energy, was always incredible pure, and additionally his foundation would get extremely solid due to the [Essence] strengthening his whole body every time he absorbed it. So, he doesn't have to worry about, for when the time comes to cultivate his human form.

The last important part of the information talked about the technological level of Red Star, which was also very interesting for Thiago, since depending on how the technological level was, he could use this to his own benefit.

Red Star currently only had some type of long-range communication device and some video recording and transmitting device, but that was it. This was because many cultivators did not care for the so-called technologies and technical devices, because they thought of cultivation as superior to everything, because you could achieve the same effect of video recording with a magical intent stone.

Therefore, the technological advancement was rather slow on Red Star which in turn made Thiago's eyes shine, because he already felt a massive business opportunity arising in front of him.

After this the remaining part of the information only contained some basic things that were not important to him at the moment so they are directly being omitted here and we now go back to Thiago's side.

Subsequently of him processing all the just now imparted information he had a pensive look on his face for a few seconds, but when he recalled the particular information on how to cultivate a human form he instantly brimmed with Vigor and happiness, because it shouldn't be too long until he could finally have hands again and being able to do certain things again. For example, carrying thinks with his hands or collecting something from the floor and many more.

Now that he had achieved his first task, came his second task to look for better techniques or skills in the [System shop] …
