In a world ruled by gods, enhanced humans, cults, and empires built on blood, one man carries the weapon of resurrection itself.

Scarred by a traumatic past, his first steps into university are cut short when a brutal confrontation with a gang ends in blood. hours later, he is assassinated. But death does not claim him. Instead, he is summoned by the Undead God of Resurrection and reborn as the Monarch of Resurrection, chosen to walk the human world as a vessel of divine power. Armed with a morphing blade and supernatural guns, Velstryx wields forces no mortal should: gravity, electricity, nuclear fire, even the atom’s heart. Yet immortality is not salvation, it is a curse. And as he discovers, he is not the only Monarch. His rivals, the other chosen, are the hidden monarchs of gangs and cults, the very corruption he once despised. As his strength grows toward the unthinkable, Velstryx faces the truth of his destiny: he is not merely a warrior, but a Godkiller, bound to ascend beyond humanity and claim a place among the Cosmic Gods themselves. And when that day comes, even the heavens will tremble.

Volume 1 Eilor witnessed the end—how his companions fell one by one, corrupted, consumed by a terror impossible to face. Just before losing everything, he crossed a threshold: a space of light. A memory. A decision. Now he has awakened in the past, with all his memories, and a single conviction: to make sure history does not repeat itself.

Who better to experience the reality of death than a dead man? For a living man, what happens during and after death is only a myth, a myth he can choose to believe or not. Meet the dead man—Ren. Once hailed the youngest and quickest self-made billionaire and was on course of becoming the richest man alive because of his corporate acumen. But he became proof that the world hated a slave rising to a king’s position. Betrayed, sabotaged and abandoned, there was no way he could possibly climb out of poverty ever again. Tired of being hopeless, he turned to the things he once despised as myths. He would rather hope in something that wasn’t real, than live in the crushing weight of defeat. Only, that one decision changed his life forever—might I add his death as well. “No one will take anything from me this time round. No man, no prince, no king, no monster, no mortal reaper, no god. Not even the devil himself! No one! I won’t let it happen….” Ren smirked, a sharp glint flashing in one eye, one of his feet dangling over the edge of the tallest skyscraper in the kingdom. With a simple shift of his weight, he fell, disappearing in complex night-time aerial view of the city below. If anyone saw him fall from that height, they would say he was going to die for sure.....But you shall soon see for yourself that death is only his daily bread in a brutal world of politics, wealth, mana, cultivation, monsters and exiled gods. __End of Narration.

No matter how bizarre the task is, if you don’t complete it, you die.

In the Dominion of Astryx, the most advanced and most dangerous nation on the planet, prodigy children are born as assets, not humans. One of them is Ryu Alverion. On the night his father died without any sign of forced entry, Ryu witnessed something impossible: a white spiral that stopped on its own, a phenomenon that cannot halt unless a mind accelerates it internally. By morning, before the Arcadia-6 police could finish their sweep, a black-clad division under legal VASENA authority seized Ryu with absolute jurisdiction. Inside the facility, his cognitive tests broke the systems. Simulations collapsed, AI froze, panels went dark. A single pattern kept reappearing: N.V. – Nex Vanthor, the greatest hacker in Astryx’s history, believed dead five years ago in Sector D-3. Each time it surfaced, Ryu’s world trembled. Nex wasn’t leaving random echoes. He was searching for a trigger, and that trigger was Ryu. Amid the covert experiments, Ryu met Lyra Vesperine, an Omega-Class girl whose silent beauty could sway national sentiment. A scar on her leg, left by bullies from her previous facility, led to their first meeting when Ryu carried her through Vasena’s cold hallway. Two broken heartbeats began to resonate. But Astryx never allows bonds like that. Omega-Class girls have elite suitors, constant surveillance, and every touch becomes political. And Ryu? He isn’t just a newcomer, he is an anomaly. Cassandra Nox, the investigation instructor with a personality like a cold blade, studied Ryu’s brainwave graph and froze. “There’s a pattern inside the pattern. As if, another mind behind yours.” Before she could finish, the simulation chamber crashed again. The white spiral blinked. A message typed itself without human input: “Ryu. You’re getting closer.” Behind the spiral’s glow, something moved, not human, not AI, not anything coded. Then a black encrypted file transferred automatically: PROTOCOL D-3 – FORBIDDEN FILE [Locked: accessible only to two minds, Nex Vanthor or the Trigger]. Ryu touched the panel. The system didn’t read his fingerprint; it read his brainwave. The protocol unlocked. Instead of answers, it played the final recording of his father. Varian Alverion smiled with terrified eyes and whispered: “If you’re seeing this, it means Nex has chosen you.” Then the screen went dark.

In the ancient realm of Elyndor, where astral tides shape destinies and forgotten gods whisper through the roots of colossal world-trees, a newborn elf awakens with memories he shouldn’t have. He is Aeryn Vaelorian—an unremarkable child by all standards, frail in body and meager in talent. In a land where power is etched into one’s bloodline, he stands at the very bottom. But hidden within him lies a silent anomaly: an unfathomable ether construct known only as the System. It observes, measures, evolves. When ancient clans stir, forbidden creatures rise from the Astral Chasm, and political shadows weave conspiracies through silver courts, Aeryn is pushed into a journey across kingdoms, ruins, dreamscapes, and planes beyond sight. Guided by an ability no being in Elyndor has even conceived, he climbs from insignificance toward a fate intertwined with cosmic secrets. Every step grants him power. Every revelation reshapes his identity. And every twist leads him closer to the truth of why he exists in a world that should never have birthed him. This is the saga of an elf who begins at the lowest rung—but who will someday stand above gods, mysteries, and fate itself.

What could possibly go wrong with this kind of setup!?

The story follows a young witch in a world with seemingly never-ending war, who yearns to see beyond the town she was born in but remains shackled by her school's influence. Witness as her might is tested against the harsh challenges she will face, be it alone or with company.
