BLOOD STEAM

Christopher Jackson knew every way a man could break. As Hollywood’s most renowned fight choreographer, he had spent a lifetime orchestrating fake violence. But the concrete waiting at the bottom of a forty-story drop was terrifyingly real. When a rooftop stunt goes catastrophically wrong, Christopher’s life ends on the pavement—only to violently restart in the suffocating darkness of a cargo hold. He awakes not to the glitz of Los Angeles, but to the soot-choked reality of an alternate 1940s steampunk world, occupying a body that was already supposed to be dead. He is now Alfeo Senza, the illegitimate, discarded son of Noralli’s most ruthless mafia family. Betrayed by his own blood, Alfeo had been murdered and dumped on a steamship bound for New Angles, the glittering, class-divided capital of the continent. But waking up alive does not mean he is free. The Senza name is a death sentence, a cursed legacy that refuses to stay buried. The syndicates of the old world are already hunting the ghost of a boy who shouldn't be breathing. Realizing that running from the underworld is impossible, Christopher makes a brutal choice: he will conquer it. Shedding his doomed identity, he rechristens himself **Crista Ferro**. Starting from the absolute bottom of the rotting slums of New Angles, armed with a master martial artist's mind and a mysterious, otherworldly power known only as the "Great Boss System," Crista begins his bloody ascent. He will no longer choreograph fake battles. He is going to forge a very real underworld empire of iron, steam, and blood, crushing anyone who stands in his way.

Limitless - The Unchained

In the beginning, there was only the Primordial Mind, and from this mind sprang of all existence; from the stars to the planets, the cosmos, and even Life and Death... But in time, it became divided against itself, two fragments; Thought (The Mysterious), and Action, (The Chaotic) warring over existence with irreconcilable ferocity, forcing their very source into the captivity of its consciousness, leaving all of creation in precariously delicate ungoverned balance... Millennia later, that balance shatters. Marduk— the God-Eater, seeking absolute supremacy, destroys the Fate Well; the cosmic anchor of all karmic flows, and then, the Chaos of the Infinite ensued... Dimensions fractured, Realms spilled into each other. Gods fell. Deities descended. Magic and energy souped into chaos... The living began to die, the dead began to rise, and the very laws of reality began to warp, accelerating all of creation towards its inevitable oblivion... Beings - Beasts - Gods - Monsters, both Orthodox and Unorthodox; all sought chances from the scattered remnants of the Fate well, and power from its ineffable pardox... Yet right at the center of this Chaos, Valen—God of Riddles, gazed into the madness and found truth; Valen found the Primordial Idea; fuse Thought and Action, consume the Primordial Mind and remake creation in his own Image... But in the heart of a self-crumbling tribe, a boy lies on a sacrificial altar, once labeled a failure, a “Void Soul” in the eyes of shamans, public, and even his own kindred; Soren, the Third Heir, and the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son—the universe’s final mortal anchor suffered the most tragic of betrayals, and was eventually schemed unto death... His death was meant to be ordinary, but fate had other plans; coinciding his death with the exact moment the Fate Well shattered. The for a infinitesimally brief moment, the Primordial Mind stirred, and gazed into the cosmic mess and found its answer; the perfect vessel to herald its reawakening... Soren reawakens into his seven-year-old body, now as the universe’s blank canvas, only tainted by the will of the primordial mind. Harbouring a Renegade Primal Goddess; Ji Min—the only survivor of Marduk's insatiable conquest, Soren must dive into the chaotic madness with nothing but the golden finger of all golden fingers... Accompanied by his fated twelve, He must navigate betrayal, war, love, and ambition on His journey of vengeance, ascension, and cosmic reckoning... For Soren, survival is just the beginning; To prevent the looming oblivion, he must transcend mortal and divine limits and become the Herald of the Primordial Mind, an entity seeking to bring either Absolution or Oblivion to the world it felt betrayed it... This is a 2,000-chapter epic biography of the fall of an Heir, to the rise of a Fate-defining god. It is a tale of survival, mastery, and the staggering cost of destiny... Enjoy...
