The World of Maheswara: I Wanted a Second Chance, Not a Second Curse

Raditya Mahesra only wanted a better life. Rejected from the military for his frail body, haunted by a dark past, and lost without direction—he was on the verge of giving up. Until an old, mysterious book dragged him into another world: Maheswara, a land of ancient magic, sacred arts, and forgotten beings. But this isn’t the isekai dream he expected. Raditya wakes up in the body of Raka Wirabumi—a disgraced noble branded a traitor and cast out from his homeland. He carries a hated name, a weak body, and lacks the one thing that matters most in this world: Éra, the life-force energy that fuels everything from martial arts to magic. Without enough Éra, he's nothing. But Raditya is far from ordinary. Armed with a brilliant mind, rare knowledge, and a will to survive, he begins to fight back. To plan. To uncover why he was brought here—and whether this is truly a second chance, or just another curse in disguise. In Maheswara, power is everything. But in the right hands, intelligence can be even more deadly.
