Across the vast convolution of worlds—the intricate weave of countless universes—there exist gods, each entrusted with a single universe to rule. In such an arrangement, skirmishes are inevitable—whether born of ambition, selfishness, amusement, or sheer pettiness.

Elliot’s unfortunate soul was caught in one such clash, a collision of divine wills that tore him from his life and thrust him into reincarnation… in a foreign land. A lost world. A world with no god to oversee it—for reasons best left unspoken.

Ul’Tra-el.

Unlike other realms, Ul’Tra-el had birthed its own will. A disturbance in its reality had once ripped open rifts in its space, and in response, the world forged a voice to protect itself. That voice, in turn, bestowed its denizens with strange powers known as Talents.

It was into this dangerous, self-willed world that Elliot was reborn—reborn as Northern. A man who should never have set foot here.

Worse still, Northern was born without a single Talent. Yet, through what might be called a golden finger—a gift from the god Nexus—he received something else: a peculiar system that allowed him to copy the abilities of others… and even evolve them.

But in a place like Ul’Tra-el, would such a gift prove to be a blessing… or a cursed shackle?

In a world deemed an aberration, Northern vows to rise above all—until he stands as the solitary peak that all others must look up to.

[Author’s Note]
The main character may come across as irritating in the early chapters—but this is deliberate. His flaws are part of the journey, and his growth is worth the wait. So, embrace the mishaps, endure the rough edges, and let Northern grow on you despite his imperfections.

"I thought we were here to assist him. What exactly is going on? I have never felt so useless in my entire life—and to someone who should be assisting us, no less."


Thalen sat perched on Eli's back, gazing down as he absorbed every word. Below them stretched a gaping wound in the ice—a vast, dark chasm yawning where an enormous chunk of earth had collapsed inward, forming a dark pit.


"I don't think it's only Sage Rian down there... I'm certain someone else has joined the fray. Something else is unfolding in that pit."


Eli's voice thundered with self-directed contempt.


"He's still down there nonetheless, closer to the beating heart of all this than we'll ever be. I've never felt like retreating back to being a Sage in my entire existence. This is a first."


Thalen's brow furrowed in bewilderment.


"Why would you want to go back to being a Sage? How would that remedy our current predicament?"
