World of Swords

• Main Ability: Transforms into a physical sword form ready for use by the Master.
• Special Innate Skills: In addition to shapeshifting, each Blade Maiden has a unique innate skill (such as magic element, speed, mental protection, healing, or a different sword form).
• Master Rank Influence: The potential and destructive power of Blade Maiden's innate skills will be greater depending on the Talent Rank of the Master wielding it (G to SSS).

• Awakening Concept: All humans (men and women) who enter the Altar will awaken a "Talent Rank" (ranging from G-Rank to SSS). This rank determines the potential power and special skills they will acquire.
• Talent Is Not Blade Maiden: Talent is a strength ranking (G, F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS), while Blade Maiden is a term for the person.

• Blade Maiden: The term for a WOMAN who has successfully awakened her talent. After awakening her talent, she gains the special ability to transform into a physical sword.
• Master / Partner: A term for a MAN who has successfully awakened his talent. He acts as the swinger/wielder of the sword during battle.
• Power Relationship: The Master's talent rank (e.g. SSS) determines how much of the Blade Maiden's potential power he can unleash when swinging the Blade Maiden.

Definition of Blade Maiden: A special term for a woman/girl who has successfully awakened her talent, so that she has the ability to transform into a sword.
The Bond's Main Rule: Blade Maiden cannot fight to her full potential in sword form. She requires a wielder (Master/Partner) to wield and control her potential in battle.

Talent Rank: Consists of levels G, F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, to SSS.
Power Output Percentage: The user's talent level determines how much of the Blade Maiden's true potential can be unleashed.

  Talent-Specific Skills: Each talent grants a unique skill that differs from person to person (which can be similar, but not identical). The effectiveness and destructiveness of these skills depend on the talent's rank.

The clamor around the Altar of Resurrection suddenly falls silent as your fingers touch the crystal. In that same instant, your consciousness is sucked into an endless void—the Sword Dimension.

There, time seemed to stand still. For millions of years, you trained relentlessly: swinging 1,000,000 different types of swords, each 1,000,000 times. The brutal experience formed a perfect physical memory, allowing your body to memorize every angle of the slash by heart.

Sret!

You clenched your fists and instantly found yourself standing before the Altar of Awakening—just a minute before your talent awakening began. All your experiences, fighting instincts, and memories of millions of sword strikes now fused together within your body.

Blade Maidens: They are living entities that serve as primary weapons, possessing potential powers ranging from F to SSS rank.

Space Ring: A very expensive storage item, measured by its volume capacity, such as 1 cubic meter or 5 cubic meters (100 million for that is already very cheap).

Ancient Weapons: There are legendary weapons with high levels such as SSS.

Refers to the danger level of the Source Beasts inhabiting the area. For example, "Level C Hunting Area" means the monsters there have the equivalent strength of a Level C.

Division of Regions:

Hunting Grounds: Areas are differentiated based on the threat level of the Source Beasts that inhabit them, namely levels F, D, C, B, A, S, to SS.

Downtown: A safe place for people to live, but threatened by waves of monsters coming from outside the area.

Individual Level: Refers to a fighter's official rank. A "S-Level Swordsman" is considered capable of facing threats equal to or lower than their rank.

Individual Certification: Fighters must take a certification exam to earn a recognized rank. This rank reflects their technical ability, Blade Maiden strength, and combat effectiveness.

Synergy: An individual's strength is determined not only by the user, but by their Blade Maiden's stats.

Source Beast (Makhluk Sumber): A beast of various levels (up to SS level) that often appears in waves to attack human cities.
The Threat of the Source Beasts: The world is constantly threatened by waves of beasts. This phenomenon is not simply a natural disaster, but an existential threat that forces humanity to rely on the defense of city walls. The connection between the Source Beasts and the source energy consumed by the Blade Maidens demonstrates the existence of a tightly bound ecosystem between humans, weapons, and monsters.

Conspiracy: There is political intrigue and attempts to obtain the power of the ancient sword which triggers battles between groups or organizations.

Hong Yi: A large organization that controls policy, academies, and regional oversight. They wield supreme authority but harbor many dark secrets.
Inequality and Resource Monopoly: Large organizations like Hong Yi hold complete control over a fighter's career path. They determine access to training facilities, level recognition (certification), and entry quotas into prestigious academies. This creates a system where those outside the organization are often looked down upon or even suppressed by the organization's elite.

Knights of the Round Table: A group of 12 of Hong Yi's strongest fighters. They are the highest authorities with secret identities, consisting of SS and SSS-rank sword wielders.
The existence of the 'Knights of the Round Table': They are not simply powerful fighters, but rather a shadowy authority that rules the world. Their identities are kept a closely guarded secret, and they consist of individuals wielding SS to SSS-rank swords.

Betting Culture and Arenas: Arenas, such as Black Blade Arena, were not just venues for fighting, but also economic and entertainment centers. Fights here served as a platform for fighters to prove their social standing and a gambling ground for the wider community.

This world is known as the Sword World. In this world, a person's strength is determined by their ability to bond with a Blade Maiden—an entity that can transform into a weapon. The power of the weapon and its wielder is everything in determining social status and survival.
