Chapter 1: Maple Leaf Village
“Legend says…… In very distant past, we humans came from a continent far far away from the one we reside in now…….”
“Long long ago, on that continent, we humans lived happily and free of worries. But one day, a bunch of demons appeared from out of nowhere. These demons began tempting and enticing humans into sin. Slowly, under their influence, we humans became selfish, greedy, and evil. Then, we endlessly fought and killed each other……”
“When the omnipotent God saw this, he felt sad, and decided to punish humanity. God sent down a curse that made the land infertile. To even harvest from it required tremendous effort……”
“Even so, humans still refused to turn over a new leaf. Instead, we became even worse. We became even more selfish. We became even more vicious. At that point, humans had already become the embodiment of sin……”
“At the time, God began to regret creating humanity. Humanity’s actions had long crossed his bottom line. So, in fit of boundless fury, God decided to bring about the apocalypse. A disaster that would destroy not just humanity, but everything in existence……”
“When the day of armageddon came about, every volcano on the continent erupted. All the rivers flooded and it rained without pause. Thunder and lightning obscured the sky and the ground split apart. Humans…… pushed to the brink of extinction……”
“God’s prophet, Noah, couldn’t bear watching this. So, he mustered his courage and begged God to change his mind and not destroy humanity……”
“In order to save humanity, Noah knelt in prayer for seven days and seven nights……”
“His sincerity had moved god. And at the same time, God felt regret looking at the horrid state the continent was in……
“”However, by then it was too late. The apocalypse had already happened and the continent was completely ruined. So ruined, it looked no different from hell. It was simply not suited for human life……”
“Seeing this, even God was helpless……
“In the end, Naoh came up with an idea. He made a ship. This ship was 300 km long, 50 km wide and 30 km tall. It was simply colossal. Huge beyond imagination……”
“Noah called it ‘The Ark’……
“He brought all surviving creatures, from humans to birds that fly in the sky to beasts that run on land and put them all in the ark. One side, was meant to be a shelter for everything. The other, was for finding a new continent that was suitable for human life.
“The ark journeyed for many many days and still could not find a continent. All around, was endless ocean as far as the eye could see. This gave rise to despair in the hearts of the humans. Even Noah was no exception……”
“After several tens of days more, Noah opened a window on the ark and sent out a crow to explore. However, after leaving, the crow never returned. Noah once again sent out another bird. This time, a dove. The ocean was simply boundless with no land to be found. So, unable to find a place to land, the dove returned to the ark……”
“After another seven days, Noah sent out the dove yet again. In the evening, the dove returned. In it’s beak, was an olive branch that was obviously taken from a tree. And after yet another seven days had passed, Noah released the dove again. This time, the dove didn’t return. This signified the discovery of a new continent……”
“Noah was extremely pleased at discovering a new continent. A continent upon which humanity flourished……”
“As for Noah, he became a hero. A legend. He was… novel, so before voting here, be sure that you’re certain of your choice. Oh and we’re looking for 3 editors to work with us.
