During the development process, people started to conquer new lands and fought for territories. When a captain's ship traveled to a new continent, they discovered a strange ethnic group there. These people made up a very small number and were still maintaining a primitive lifestyle. But they were all very beautiful and gave off a strange scent. After the discovery, countries sent fleets of ships across the ocean to conquer that new continent. The aboriginal people there were enslaved. With their beautiful appearance, they were quickly sought after by the nobles. Both males and females of this tribe were able to give birth.

After hundreds of thousands of years of mixing genes together, humans have gradually formed the sexes that they are today.
