The Last Of Ardan: Rise of The Nexus

Two centuries ago the world of Ardan was changed forever. The Great Reckoning — a cataclysmic event that fused Ardan with a dark and otherworldly realm — tore open the boundary between what was known and what should have stayed unknown. From that fusion came mana, a mystical essence that reshaped humanity from the inside out, granting some extraordinary abilities and dooming others. It also unleashed something else. Monstrous abominations poured through the breach and have never stopped coming, warring against humanity for two hundred years with no sign of relenting. Into this world, Ivel was born cursed. In a world where a person's quality determines their worth, his marks him as something dangerous — something to be feared and kept at a distance. The villagers never let him forget it. But one man saw something different in the cursed boy washed ashore from a place no one talks about, and took him home. Raised by a family of warriors — a father whose power runs deeper than anyone knows, two sisters who have seen real war and carried it back with them — Ivel grows up on the edge of a world that doesn't want him in it. He trains. He hunts. He learns what it means to fight things that want to kill him and to come back anyway. But staying is no longer enough. The monsters near home can't push him to where he needs to go. The Isles of Rom — islands that appeared without explanation, that have swallowed every warrior sent to explore them — are calling. A legendary fighter has offered to take him there and teach him everything he knows. The risk is real. The alternative is standing still. Ivel is done standing still. The Last of Ardan: Rise of the Nexus is a progression fantasy about found family, a deep and evolving magic system, and one cursed boy's journey toward becoming something the world has never seen. Update schedule — five chapters per week.

Evolution: From Calamity To Accursed Calamity

In a realm forged from the collision of two universes, existence is a meat grinder. Spanning dozens of galaxies, this "Great Link" has become the primary theater of war for the cosmos' most formidable factions. Here, Divine Entities fall by the thousands, their deaths fertilizing the soil for new ascendants in a relentless cycle of slaughter, carnage and greed. But from the friction of this chaos—the gore, the death, and the broken laws of physics—a new lifeform emerged: The Calamity. To the outsiders, the Calamities are not people; they are living ore. They are hunted for their essences, consumed as nourishment, or broken into servitude. While most are mindless beasts of destruction, a rare few are born with souls and intellect. They are the prey that knows it is being hunted. In a forgotten corner of this sprawling graveyard, a Rank 1 Calamity is born. He is the weakest of his kind, a flickering spark in a storm of divine-tier predators. He awakens with nothing but a primal directive: Ascend or be consumed. Yet, buried within his frail form lie three anomalies—illogical, reality-warping abilities that defy the established power scales of both universes. In a world where "strength" is measured by the bodies of fallen divines, one weakling must test the limits of his broken gifts. Can a creature born of chaos bring order to a realm of divine greed, or will he simply be the highest-quality resource ever harvested. ——— Simple:— A realm was formed when two different universes were connected. A realm that spanned for dozens of galaxies in diameter. In time chaos, death and disorder spread through the whole realm, and from these mentioned elements came a completely new race of beings; which the lifeforms of the two universes termed as [Calamity]. Most were savage; unintelligent in nature but there were some, stronger ones who were born with sentience, intelligence! The calamities hated it as their home was ravaged by war and their kind was hunted because of greed, as they were seen as nothing but resources by the outsiders to either consume or tame! However, despite of everything, they couldn't do anything, as if they had a few strongs, than the outsiders had many on many strongs. The massive realm had become the main focus of all the main powers of the two universes. it had become a main ground where three different powers fought on a daily basis in every corner of the realm. Every day there were [Divine Entities] that fell to their doom, but every day there were also many how ascended to [Divinity]. The opportunities and the resources were abundant, along with the dangers and death that came hand in hand with them. Meanwhile, in such an environment; a weak calamity was born in some far corner of the realm. Away from the real dangers, yet still not, because even though, he had sentience, he was born weak and ignorant. Only born with the superficial knowledge; that his kind was hunted, and he must become stronger as soon as possible if he wants to survive, and not become nourishment for someone else. Nonetheless, though born weakest as a rank 1 calamity, he had something special that not many had. An absurdly and illogically strong ability, another absurdly strong ability and another strong ability. However, it was still unknown, if these abilities were even strong enough to make him survive, let alone make him strong, stronger than anybody else, or perhaps strong enough to make him climb to the top. The Apex! ——— Note: The MC is indeed born with strong abilities, however that doesn't mean those abilities will make him insanely stronger from the start! No, instead to become strong and peerless, he would have to work for it, and suffer for it! Only then would he be worthy enough to be called.. ——— Power Stones—250—1 Chapter Golden Tickets—50—1 Chapter [For both effects stackable up to 5 times] ——— Gifts— 1000 Coins—1 Chapter 5000 Coins—5 Chapters 10,000 Coins—10 Chapters so on, so on... ———
