The Awakening Of The Last Knight.
In an alternative universe wars are taking place between humans and ghouls.
A thousand years ago, humans built a siege to keep the ghouls trapped inside and stop them from attacking human villages. Fifty years ago, the siege cracked, and ghouls flooded the human world, destroying many cities.
They disguise themselves as humans or animals when they infiltrate cities. Then, they reveal their true forms, attack, and burn everything to the ground.
Scientists built a barrier system to keep ghouls out, and governments trained warriors to use high-tech devices to fight them. The strongest group of warriors, who fought bravely for the last decade, are called the Knights of Askalan. They fought the battle that took place ten years ago, protecting their city from ghouls, and are now the heroes and protectors of the city.
Ali is a 21-year-old fresh graduate. On the day of his graduation, he was having fun with his friends and taking pictures during the ceremony when ghouls attacked from the sea. Somehow they broke the barrier.
His friends were killed while trying to escape. He went to check on his family, but two of his brothers had been killed while defending his mother and younger sister, and his father was injured. He tried to get them to safety amid the chaos, but they were trapped. So, he decided to sacrifice himself, leading the ghouls away from his family. The ghouls surrounded him and attacked one by one. Just as he thought he was finished, a system screen appeared, giving him a choice: start over the day with new armor or carry on and die.

Chapter: Chapter 41, The Hive.The abandoned mall stood like a a Haunted house in the heart of Ariha, its shattered windows and the smoke that filled the air, a remaining evidence of the catastrophe. The atmosphere was filled with something far worse than blood, it was decay, the kind that didn’t come from the dead but from things that refused to die. Hadi sent Ali, Malik, and Laith to help. Three days ago, the Knights of Ariha received a call from a worker in the mall, saying that he saw a group of ghouls in a warehouse. Soon, the ghouls flooded the mall, and chaos erupted. The Knights of Ariha went there immediately but were unable to eliminate the ghouls. There were too many of them, and they couldn’t find out where they were coming from. Malik tightened his grip on his blade as he, Ali, and Laith approached the barricade where the Knights of Ariha had set up their command post. The leader, Hassan, turned to greet them, his face streaked with dirt and exhaustion. "Took you long enough," Hassan muttered, wi

Chapter: Chapter 40, When Speed Meets Strategy.After the battle the system's screen flashed before Ali's eyes : [ You've Leveled up][You've gained +40 experience points][You've gained a new object : Loot box ][ Battle IQ : +20 ][ Speed : +30][ Strength : +30 ][ Stamina : + 30]____The headquarters buzzed with energy as the knights returned from their mission. Fadi immediately commandeered the footage, plugging his laptop into a monitor. "Leave the editing to me," he said, cracking his knuckles. "I’ll make sure you look like legends, or at least cooler than the Knights of Nablus."Karim, still hyped from the battle, turned to Ali and Laith. "Train with me. I need to keep up with you monsters." Ali smirked. "Fine. But don't expect us to go easy on you."Their first spar was swift, Karim had improved, but Ali’s precision dismantled his defenses in minutes. Panting, Karim tapped out, then grinned. "Alright, now I want to see you try that on him." He jerked his chin toward Laith, lounging against a pillar with his usual bored

Chapter: Chapter 39, Blades of Light and Thunder.After the announcement of the Knights' Association, things grew quiet again. Ali and the others were unhappy that their efforts for peace had gone to waste, but there was nothing they could do. Soon after, the Association ordered the knight groups to film their battles and upload the footage to social media. At first, the knights rejected the proposal, insisting they were not influencers. However, the Association argued that in this day and age, it was necessary to maintain their public image. A strong social media presence, they claimed, would provide a platform to share their perspective and protect them against future defamation. The Knights of Nablus were the first to respond. With their vast numbers and dedicated supporters, their videos went viral almost overnight, turning them into global heroes. Seeing their success, the other groups soon followed their lead. The fish market was in chaos. Stalls were overturned, people screamed, and the stench of blood mixed with the s

Chapter: Chapter 38, Dangerous Escalation.The smoke had barely cleared when the news reached them, Haitham's office had been hit. A drone strike. It was precise and brutal.By the time Ali, Marwan, Hazim and the others arrived at the hospital, the scene was chaotic. Haitham's wife clutched his uninjured hand, her face streaked with tears, while his daughters sobbed quietly in the corner. The doctors moved briskly, their voices low and grim.Marwan gritted his teeth, fists clenched. "Whoever did this... I'll find them. I don't care if I have to dig them out from under the earth myself."Ali stared at Haitham's bandaged hand, three fingers gone, the rest blackened and raw. "This wasn't random. They knew where he'd be."Just then, Hazim entered, his expression unreadable. "The Commander of Tulkarm Knights was assassinated an hour ago."A heavy silence fell over them.Ali frowned. "That's too convenient. You think... it's connected?"Marwan's voice turned sharp. "This is too much, we must put an end to this, aren't you going to

Chapter: Chapter 37, Assassin's Attack.The night was quiet as Hadi drove home, the city lights flickering past his car windows. He loosened his tie, exhaustion settling in after another long day at the firm. Just as he turned onto the deserted stretch leading to his neighborhood, a deafening explosion shattered the silence. His car lurched violently, flames erupting from the engine. Instinct took over. Hadi kicked the door open and threw himself onto the pavement, rolling to smother the sparks licking at his sleeves. Before he could catch his breath, a dark figure lunged at him from the shadows. Hadi barely dodged the first swing. His attacker was human-no telltale signs of a shapeshifter-just a man with a grudge and a knife. Hadi blocked the next strike, twisting the assailant's wrist until the blade clattered to the ground. A sharp pain shot through his shoulder as the man landed a solid hit, but Hadi retaliated with a well-aimed kick, sending the attacker stumbling back. Seizing the moment, Hadi bolted into the alley

Chapter: Chapter 36, No More Excuses.The moment Hazim and Hadi returned from the Association’s assembly, they gathered their small but dedicated team, Marwan, Haitham, Malik, laith and Ali. and the five new recruits were still struggling to adjust. The recruits stood nervously in the background as Hazim made the announcement. "The Association wants every group to expand," Hazim said, crossing his arms. "We need more fighters. That means we’re recruiting, starting now."Marwan, who had been leaning against the wall with his usual scowl, suddenly pushed himself forward, his face flushing with frustration. "You’ve got to be joking," he snapped. "These five can barely hold a sword without tripping over themselves, and now you want to add more to the mess?"Hazim’s jaw tightened. "We don’t have a choice, Marwan. The Siege Ghouls aren’t going to wait for us to be ready.""Then you train them!" Marwan shot back, throwing his hands up. "You keep dumping everything on us while you swan around playing leader. If you want mor
