Chapter 1 The beginning
SSS-Rank Summoner of the Future Age
Chapter 1: Death and Rebirth
The rain fell heavily over the city.
Li Yue sprinted across the crowded street, her backpack bouncing against her shoulders. At seventeen, she was an ordinary girl living an ordinary life. She had no special talents, no powerful family, and no extraordinary destiny.
At least, that was what she thought.
A deafening horn blared.
Her eyes widened.
A speeding truck had lost control.
Everything happened in an instant.
People screamed.
The headlights grew brighter.
Pain exploded through her body.
Then darkness swallowed everything.
...
When Li Yue opened her eyes again, she found herself floating in endless silver light.
"Am I dead?"
Her voice echoed into the void.
A mechanical voice responded.
[Soul Compatibility Confirmed.]
[Initiating Transmigration.]
"What?"
[Transferring host to Year 3289.]
Before she could react, the silver light shattered.
Li Yue awoke in a small bedroom.
The ceiling glowed with soft blue light.
Transparent screens floated through the air.
Outside the window, countless flying vehicles crossed the sky between enormous floating towers.
She sat up instantly.
"This isn't Earth..."
Memories suddenly flooded her mind.
The owner of this body was also named Li Yue.
Twelve years old.
Student of Nova City Academy.
Orphan.
Weak.
Bullied.
Lowest-ranked talent holder.
The world had changed dramatically over a thousand years.
After the appearance of dimensional rifts, humanity entered the Era of Evolution.
Monsters invaded.
Beasts evolved.
Humans awakened supernatural classes.
Warriors.
Mages.
Assassins.
Healers.
Summoners.
The strongest among them protected humanity against countless threats.
The previous Li Yue had awakened yesterday.
Her class?
F-Rank Summoner.
The weakest possible rank.
After suffering ridicule from classmates, the young girl collapsed from despair.
And then the original soul died.
Li Yue inherited the body.
"Wait..."
She froze.
A golden screen appeared before her eyes.
SSS-RANK SUMMONER SYSTEM

Li Yue stared blankly.
"SSS rank?"
Every memory in her head told her how impossible that was.
An A-rank awakened one in a million.
S-rank appeared perhaps once every generation.
SSS-rank existed only in legends.
The screen flashed.
[Starter Reward Granted.]
[Obtained Primordial Beast Egg.]
A massive golden egg materialized beside her bed.
Crack.
Crack.
Crack.
The shell split open.
A tiny white fox crawled out.
Its fur sparkled like stars.
Two golden eyes gazed at her.
The creature jumped into her arms.

Li Yue's eyes widened.
"Wait... I gain its power?"
The fox rubbed its head against her cheek.
Instantly warmth flooded her body.
Her weak physique strengthened.
Her senses sharpened.
Even her mana surged.
The system appeared again.

Agility +30
Mana +50
Talent Growth Rate Increased
Li Yue nearly laughed.
A normal summoner commanded beasts.
She absorbed their power.
That meant every summon she obtained would make her stronger.
At level one.
At age twelve.
She already possessed advantages beyond most elite awakeners.
