Rise Of The Dual Bound Sovereign
On the day of his awakening, Azrael’s entire world came crashing down.
Labeled a cripple, mocked by those around him, and rejected by the very family he yearned to be accepted by, his hopes of changing his fate shattered.
He had believed that awakening as a powerful elementalist would finally earn him his family’s recognition and give him the strength and influence needed to save his dying mother.
But he never knew the truth — his talent had not failed him. It had been stolen from him before he was even born by the very people he had spent his entire life trying to please.
The moment he found out the truth he was killed without hesitation, his corpse was thrown into the Ten Thousand Beast Forest to be devoured by beasts.
But death was not the end.
[ The natural balance is collapsing ]
[ A dual-bound existence has been born ]
[ You will stand at the convergence of two paths… ]
Given a second chance at life, Azrael becomes something that should not exist, a dual-bound existence. One soul, two bodies, different paths.
While one walks the path of humanity, the other prowls the abyss as a rapidly evolving beast capable of devouring bloodlines to grow stronger.
No longer a cripple, Azrael vows to rise to the top and make those who cast him aside pay the price.
But beyond his desire for revenge lies a far greater danger, one tied to the very balance of the world itself.
Unknowingly, he has already stepped into something far beyond his comprehension.

Chapter: CHP 12: Rock–Scaled LizardAfter traveling for some time, they finally arrived at the camp.Three figures immediately came into view. All of them wore the same insignia as the one embroidered on the injured man's cloak, making it easy for Azrael to guess that they were fellow mercenaries."Marcus... what happened to you?"One of them immediately rushed over when he saw Marcus's condition.It was only then that Azrael learned the mercenary's name. Throughout their journey, neither of them had bothered to ask for the other's.The remaining two quickly followed, concern evident on their faces as they inspected Marcus's condition.Marcus briefly explained what had happened after they split up and how he had been ambushed by a Four-Eyed Serpent, leaving him in his current state.Upon hearing this, one of the mercenaries rushed toward the supply tent. A short while later, he returned with a small vial and handed it to Marcus.Marcus accepted it without hesitation and immediately drank its contents. Almost instantly,

Chapter: CHP 11: Injured MercenaryAzrith slithered off in search of prey, while Azrael headed in the opposite direction, hoping to find a way out of the forest.Time passed quietly.Azrael moved cautiously through the forest, carefully concealing his presence and avoiding every beast he encountered. Whenever he sensed a powerful aura nearby, he would immediately change direction, unwilling to take unnecessary risks.Even so, after wandering for what felt like hours, he still hadn't found a way out. The Ten Thousand Beast Forest was simply too vast.He was beginning to think he might need his twin soul's help after all. Just as he was about to reach out through their soul connection—Snap!The faint sound of a branch breaking echoed through the forest.Azrael's eyes narrowed.He immediately turned toward the source of the sound. However, all he saw were towering trees and dense undergrowth.There was no one there.Azrael carefully made his way toward the direction from which the sound had come.As he drew closer, he de

Chapter: CHP 10: Breaking The BalanceHe slowly opened it to see what was inside, and the moment he did, a surge of elemental essence burst out, spreading through the surrounding area.Inside the sack were two translucent fruits that glowed faintly with energy.Azrael’s eyes widened slightly.Then, almost instantly, he closed the sack.“We should leave this place quickly.”The sudden surge of elemental essence was bound to attract both humans and magical beasts.Three minutes after they left, a brown bear suddenly appeared at the scene and began sniffing around, searching for the source of the earlier surge of elemental essence.It was still looking when a green-eyed leopard emerged from the trees.The moment they noticed each other, their gazes locked, and without hesitation, they lunged at one another, breaking into a fierce fight.—-------“I think we’ve gone far enough. That cave should make a good hiding spot,” Azrael said, pointing toward a cave not too far ahead.“We’ll refine the treasure inside, then I’ll leave t

Chapter: CHAPTER 9: TreasureOnly then did he turn his attention back to Azrael.He stretched out his hand and Azrael immediately felt his throat tighten. An invisible force wrapped around his neck and slowly lifted him from the ground.Azrael clawed at his throat, struggling for breath as his feet slowly left the ground.Severin looked at him indifferently."You know, had you kept your mouth shut and pretended to know nothing, you could have lived out the rest of your miserable life in peace."His voice remained calm, as though he were discussing the weather."A smart man knows there are truths he shouldn't touch and secrets he shouldn't uncover."Severin took a step forward."Unfortunately, you chose neither."Azrael glared at him through bloodshot eyes, hatred burning within them."Tell me, Azrael," Severin continued. "Did you truly think I would let you walk away after this?"The invisible force around Azrael's neck tightened further."Still..." Severin's gaze briefly shifted toward Helene's lifeless body lyi

Chapter: CHP 8: Ancient Evil RelicMeanwhile, in the banquet hall, Severin, who had been casually conversing with the guests moments earlier, suddenly paused. The smile on his face vanished as he expression suddenly became serious.Without explaining himself, he rose from his seat. "I'll be leaving first. There are some matters I need to attend to."Leaving those words behind, he turned and walked out of the hall. None of the guests dared question him. Nor did they dare ask why the Family Head was leaving so abruptly.Moments later, Severin's figure shot through the night sky like a streak of light, heading straight toward Helene's residence.When he arrived, the first thing he saw was Azrael.As if sensing his presence, Azrael slowly turned his head toward the door. Standing there was Severin.For a moment, the two of them simply locked eyes, neither saying a word. Then Severin's gaze shifted past him, landing on Helene's lifeless body lying on the bed.Seeing that indifferent expression on his face, Azrael's hands tr

Chapter: CHP 7: All a lieWhen the scene reformed, Azrael found himself standing in a dimly lit room.Helene was lying on a bed, her body drenched in sweat as painful cries escaped her lips. Several women hurried around her, trying to assist with the delivery.After what felt like an eternity, a baby's cry finally echoed through the room."It's a boy!" one of the women announced with a smile as she carefully handed the newborn to Helene before leaving the room with the others.Azrael slowly walked closer, his gaze falling on the tiny infant in his mother's arms—his younger self.For a moment, he simply stared, a strange feeling washing over him as he looked at the person he once was.Then—Bang!The door suddenly burst open.Azrael turned around and saw Severin stepping into the room.The moment Helene saw him, a warm smile appeared on her pale face. "It's a boy," she said softly.But Severin didn't react in the slightest, instead he simply stretched out his hand and in an instant, the entire room was swallo
