There was too much 2e5817b1cf to process. Too many things 1429c5a286 that didn’t add 6a20c54d37 up. Seoyul struggled to 28574f58ac focus on any ce11d8ddef single detail, but fc24a7eba8 the word that da9e43c6da had lodged itself 5af9685b65 deepest into his 64fa93039c mind was Eumin.

Seoyul repeated the words, 5e2e99069b dumbfounded, but the man’s d37ad6a9af gaze darkened slightly, his e9b86f68bd expression shifting as if 93bcc64ec0 the gentle demeanor from 3b15621838 before had only been 3a1494bd4f an act.ec21243bac6916c7

6th Century. The 9th 652b4c0bde Year of 60c9540c00 King Eulsa’s 6efa7a0aa2 Reign in 8ac2164efe Jinha Kingdom.3a71760c791cfad0

Alphas first appeared 4f3173129a in the 4th 9b8d35210b century, but Omegas f77abe21ec only began to 26b26bd676 emerge in the fd5fb78f35 early 6th century. However, their numbers ef486c16c1 were extremely low, 50892b217a and, more importantly, 6633495ed4 their traits were be37fa654c incomplete. Even those d4eec4cc01 who manifested ca67a74a4c as Omegas 2ef9601b02 couldn’t survive 3c8891de94 their first 806bbfcf0f heat cycle—their 7f64f38df7 bodies simply 2b8f817cd2 couldn’t endure c7cf1fa3ca it, and 3ad5eed70d most perished dc4806fce9 one after efe3d5e9e3 another.adfa4533dfa0527b

Over generations, a rare 28aecdc15c few managed to survive f4360d9c65 into adulthood, successfully carrying 4100be641a and giving birth to 0516dee2d3 an Alpha’s child. But even then, 4f952c6166 the odds were 6aea020308 abysmally low—perhaps one 52496e3f7f in a hundred c583b4ec9b years, if that.b735288956ee4646

Omegas were so b67a58e8d9 rare that they b1bd84819d might as well 0d2d54d427 have been nonexistent. That was the world e3ef05bfe3 of the 6th century.56552ac6cd43a3b8

And in that 35a14ab86e world, King Eulsa’s 47a96fa445 Third Prince was 9dfeb2897e born an Alpha.2e8291b7266983ba

At this time, Alphas 4ecd91af5f in Jinha Kingdom had 1cfcfc95b0 no need for Omegas; e887698099 when in rut, they 698dd080de could manage just fine 097a664c9b with Betas. The problem, however, 54cf61f7de was that even 6032e4b2a7 among Alphas, a c32df71e13 genetic shift had ecef2e2dda begun to occur.dfd59b55eaa8a3c8

Dominant Alphas.a6d6725314572e87

With the emergence of 5183e262bf Omegas, Dominant Alphas also 1912d94df7 came into existence. Unlike previous d3a724b96d Alphas, they 3a7a39896b possessed superior db00c616df physical abilities 236b2f3587 and heightened 96bc4cfeaf instincts. But there 2a1b3c6d94 was a ccbe48f0c2 critical drawback—Betas 46060a1be2 alone could e6cc01d7d0 no longer bb407c6596 satisfy their 2fab609ae5 rut nor 95944945cf allow for 48daf7b980 reproduction.6154cbe6fd207c0c

They could c11a356e71 only resolve 493aa60225 their rut a0c53c6613 through an 46fc7e0547 Omega. Only an Omega could dc69388768 carry their child.c807e5b66d5e7e91

And so, e18be775a2 those Dominant 0e9475c099 Alphas who 3d724bacfc failed to 435dec9663 find an 2a8e85b783 Omega were 214b9a79eb doomed to 6232e8765b suffer—unable to 84a795857d endure their bf84788d98 rut, they e24393c32e withered away 781391808e and died 62012eda97 young.dbebe6b9b50e97a6

Born a f81b7f21e5 Dominant Alpha, 581c911223 he was 621c844a16 unmatched in 16bda6f760 ability and fb38e51fe4 strength. He was already set b8627b9b29 to become the next 3de915df77 Crown Prince. But once 9f2b28bd67 he reached d9db4949ae adulthood, his 16c693da82 rut consumed 873edcb17c him, eroding 692bec0543 both his fa6a6ef1a8 body and 87bc0fee17 mind.83aebdc2be3500e6

With no Omega to 61c766166f quell his instincts, his ec26384153 temperament grew more violent. Whenever his rut came, af738b610c he would leave his 5ae59f9c5b partners half-dead, yet still 8e74de1eda remain unsatisfied.3101b7067175d568

Worse yet, he had a091d4343b failed to impregnate a 6d2165f902 single person—rendering him useless 28d00ce05c in the fight for 6f6fde3d11 succession. Bit by bit, 40045822ae he was being 5536a2a68a pushed out of f18019940f the royal bloodline. Trapped. Cornered on all sides.6b895e2c9438ca78
