You live in the United States?Imagine if blue mana rain fell and dragons descended from the sky, lifeless, straight into your city or at your doorstep?Tell me what's gonna be the outcome?Lemme guess; mana fuses into everything, including life forms and the non-living and plants will be like, “I will kill everything”, or even four-legged mammalian animals fused with mana begin to grow wings.It's gonna be a damn chaos with a bunch of weird stuff everywhere, I've been there and guess what? I saw a monkey with three asses.Hilarious right? But to me it was terrifying, like, what does a monkey need three damn ass for?But what if this all Mana situation was controlled? What would the results be? Evolution right.Yeah, humans are way too smart to let such an opportunity pass them by, but the same Homo sapiens were devious and selfish; they want all the good things to themselves.In this world, I am Jayden Logan, rejected by my father because I didn't get a great SAT score, but don't worry, I'm a genius. My SATs were low because of these devious humans, you can call them the weapon fashioned against me, but don't worry, I conquered.Eventually, I break through the tough bars of this world of beast taming and gain a beast with potential greater than anyone else's, and I even found true love.But my biggest rival was a scientific organisation, MAGEO and the man in charge? Guess who it was?The United States governor, body and soul.Swears, I was damn fascinated when I realised.They were sure planning something big with those dragons, I wasn't certain of it, but I knew it wasn't good.I don't really know how my story is gonna end, but one thing is certain, I'm gonna cultivate my beast and kick some ass.

The once rich girl Shen Hanxing lost her mother when she was born. She was then dumped overseas by her own father when she was little to her own devices.Nineteen years later, her father personally took her home from overseas, and the reason was to replace her younger sister to marry her fiancé Ji Yan, who had lost his legs’ senses after a car accident.Father: “Know your place. You’re already marrying above your station when you marry Ji Yan with your status.” Younger Sister: “Thank you for willing to sacrifice yourself for my love~” Shen Hanxing smiled faintly: “Agree to my two conditions, and I’ll gladly marry him.”Afterward, she stepped into the Ji family’s home with empty luggage. The man in the wheelchair angrily roared at her in the dark room. “Scram!”Shen Hanxing quickly switched on the light, pulled open the curtain, and extended his hand towards the man with the light behind her. “Hello. Let me introduce myself. I’m your wife, Shen Hanxing.”When he saw her the first time, he treated her coldly. And then, he treasured her. Ji Yan looked at this woman that suddenly barged into her life. She used her strength to tame his wild and brash younger brother.She patiently and compassionately healed his fearful and introverted younger sister. She used everything she had to slowly support this cold family…And then, Shen Hanxing fell into a trap. Before she drifted into darkness, she saw the man that was supposed to be in the wheelchair running towards her in anxiety.When she woke up again, the man pointed at the washing board, the keyboard, and the durian and asked, “Hanxing, which one do you want me to kneel on?”
