In a world ruled by the iron law of Beast Taming, your summoned spirit is your entire worth. A high-ranking beast guarantees luxury, power, and respect. A low-ranking beast condemns you to a life of servitude. For seventeen years, Leo lived in the shadows of the city elite, waiting for the Day of Summoning to change his fate. Instead, it became his living nightmare. Humiliated in front of thousands, mocked by the person he trusted most, and left with a trash-tier ranking, Leo became the joke of the city. But when the elite discarded a dying, mutated defect beast and sentenced it to execution, Leo felt a strange, ancient resonance. He chose to form a soul pact with the creature, drawing the ultimate ridicule from the crowd. They thought he had sealed his own doom. They were wrong. What the world saw as a broken defect was actually a dormant, forbidden myth from the dawn of time. As the blood pact activates, a terrifying power begins to wake, and the people who trampled on Leo’s dignity are about to learn that some gods should never be angered.

    Chapter 1
    The gods do not look at trash, Ethan, so you had better make them stare. Those were the last words Ethan’s father had told him before the fever took him. Standing at the edge of the Sky Reach Arena, the weight of that memory nearly crushed his ribs. The air smelled of burnt ozone and expensive perfume, a sickening mixture that belonged entirely to the elite families sitting in the high boxes. Below them, thirty thousand citizens cheered until their throats bled, waiting for the next miracle. "Look at him go," someone whispered in the queue behind Ethan. "That is the third S Rank this morning. The Crest family is truly blessed." Up on the golden platform, Asher Crest stood with his chin tilted toward the sky. Above him, a magnificent beast tore through the summoning veil. Its feathers were spun from pure silver, and arcs of jagged violet lightning danced across its massive wingspan. It was an S Rank Lightning Griffin. It screeched, a sound that shook the dust from the stadium raft

    Chapter 2
    "Go ahead and pull the trigger, because if I survive this, I am tearing your world down block by block."The dark, abyssal light exploded outward from the platform, hitting the approaching guards like a physical wall. The heavy iron boots of the soldiers skidded backward across the broken marble, sparks flying as they groaned from the impact. The sudden pressure wave sent a freezing wind howling through the entire Sky Reach Arena, extinguishing the decorative fire braziers in an instant."Get away from him!" High Elder Ronald screamed from the high balcony, his voice cracking with panic. "The fool is destabilizing the entire array! Guards, cut him down!"Ethan collapsed entirely over the tiny creature, his vision flashing a blinding white as the dark energy sank through his skin. It felt like liquid ice pouring directly into his veins, freezing his lungs until he couldn't even draw a breath to scream. Beneath his palms, the little lizard let out a sharp, pathetic wheeze. Its tiny, tra

    Chapter 3
    "If you die tonight, little worm, you take my soul straight to hell with you."Ethan ignored the flashing red numbers counting down in his vision and pushed through the rotten wooden door of his father's old workshop. The air inside smelled of dust, rusted iron, and old copper shavings. He kicked a broken gear out of his way, stumbling toward a workbench covered in cobwebs. The freezing rain outside battered the thin metal roof like a hail of gunfire."Hold on," Ethan whispered, his hands shaking violently as he gently placed the shivering creature onto a pile of dry rags. "Just look at me. Stay awake."The tiny lizard let out a weak, dry clicking sound. Its pale skin was becoming brittle, covered in tiny fractures that leaked a strange, luminous golden mist. The scent of heavy ozone filled the small room, making Ethan’s hair stand on end."Come on, work with me!" Ethan muttered, rubbing his pounding temples. The burning crimson text in his eyes shifted, rearranging itself like hot co

    Chapter 4
    "I did not survive the arena just to let a vermin bleed me out in my own home."Ethan lunged before the wire could click the internal deadbolt upward. His fingers closed around the cold, heavy iron handle, pulling the door open with a sudden, violent yank. The structural recoil caught the intruder completely off guard. A hooded figure tumbled through the threshold, boots skidding against the wet floorboards as the storm outside unleashed a sudden gust of rain into the workshop."What the—" the assassin hissed, rolling backward instinctively to regain his balance."Silas, move!" Ethan roared, drawing his hunting dagger from his boot.Silas did not wait. The old blacksmith dove behind a towering stack of iron gears just as a dark, metallic blade flashed through the space where his head had been. The assassin recovered with frightening speed, his movements fluid and entirely silent."The Crest family does not leave loose ends, Vance," a low, muffled voice came from beneath the dark cowl.

    Chapter 5
    "You picked the wrong house to bleed in, hunter."The crushing weight on Ethan’s windpipe vanished instantly as the shadow beast simply dissolved into standard, lifeless smoke. The cloaked assassin remained perfectly suspended mid-air, his raised dagger frozen in time, his pupils dilated to the absolute edge of his irises. Gravity had ceased to exist for him. He was entirely trapped in the inescapable gravity well of a waking god."What… what did you do to me?" the assassin gasped, the words barely leaking past his trembling lips. "My body… I cannot move a finger.""I did not do anything," Ethan rasped, coughing violently as he rubbed his bruised throat. He staggered away from the wall, his boots sliding through the melting black mist. "But I think you woke up someone who doesn't like uninvited guests."The leather carrying box on the table disintegrated into splinters, unable to contain the absolute density of the aura expanding from within. Solis did not grow in size. He remained a

    Chapter 6
    "You are a ghost walking in a world of giants, Vance," Julian mocked, his hand sliding smoothly to the hilt of his tamer sword. "Did you really think you could crawl out of the gutter and dictate terms to me?"Ethan didn’t answer with words. He took a heavy, deliberate step forward, pulling a silver and gold signet ring from his pocket—the one he had stripped from the unconscious assassin back at the workshop—and tossed it onto the merchant's glass display counter. It slid across the smooth surface with a sharp, echoing clink."Look closely at the crest, Malek," Ethan rasped, his voice cutting through the thick smell of sulfur. "That belongs to a specialized clean-up unit under the Crest family’s direct payroll. Your elite buyers sent him to murder me in the dark. Right now, he is tied up in my workshop, singing about every illegal transaction, under-the-table bribe, and unregistered core that passes through this vault. If the City Guard arrives before I get what I came for, we all bu

    Chapter 7
    "Do you hear that, Julian? It sounds like the world is splitting open."Inside the smooth, impenetrable crystalline cocoon, Ethan couldn't hear the merchant's frantic, muffled screams from the outside world. He could only hear the deafening, rhythmic thud of a single, monumental heartbeat echoing through the fluid magma. It wasn't his own."First seal: Broken," a crisp, golden text flashed across his retinas, replacing the hostile violet countdown. "Initiating primeval feedback loop. Host meridians detected as: Severely fractured. Commencing cellular restructuring."Ethan gasped, but his lungs didn't fill with liquid fire. Instead, a torrential wave of ancient, unadulterated energy surged inward from the cocoon, drilling straight into his chest. The broken, clogged channels within his body—the ones the academy elders had mocked as a lost cause—were violently ripped open. The agony of the restructuring was sharp and precise, but it was instantly followed by a profound, intoxicating war

    Chapter 8
    "Do not look back, Solis. There is nothing left for us in those walls."The city guard sirens wailed like dying beasts behind them, their mechanical screeches muffled by the heavy downpour. Ethan sprinted through the outer perimeter of the collapsing black market district, his newly restored meridians pulsing with an unfamiliar, electric vitality. The catastrophic destruction of Malek’s vault had drawn every enforcer in the third district toward the pillar of light, leaving the southwestern drainage grates completely unguarded.Ethan scrambled through the massive, rusted iron bars of the storm drain, tumbling out into the muddy, jagged trenches that bordered the city. Without a second glance at the monolithic stone walls of Sky-Reach, he dove into the dark, tangled treeline of the Ashen Wilderness.By the time the sun began to peek through the suffocating canopy, the rain had stopped, replaced by a thick, sulfurous fog. The Ashen Wilderness was a graveyard of petrified trees and jagge

    Chapter 9
    "Close your mouth, Mercer, unless you want to swallow the ash."Ethan stepped off the steaming carcass of the Earth Tremor Bear, his voice cutting through the thick, sulfurous fog. Solis trotted silently to his side, the sleek, obsidian dragon shaking his dark scales as the last of the black flame flickered out in his throat. The ancient royal crest on his forehead dimmed, settling back into a quiet, pulsing hum beneath the dark skin.Sophia looked up from the dirt, her fingers still trembling against her bloodened sleeve. The shock of witnessing a supposed genetic failure effortlessly dissolve a Tier-4 colossus had completely overridden the pain of her shattered shoulder."I know what I saw, Vance," Sophia said, her voice dropping to a fierce, terrified whisper as she struggled to her feet. "The Merchant Guild handles archives stretching back to the founding of the first outer wall. That symbol on his head... it belongs to the Primeval Lineage. If the High Elders find out what you ar

    Chapter 10
    "Hold where you are! Nobody moves!"Asher Crest’s voice cut through the humid morning air like a shattered pane of glass. The elite guards instantly drew their heavy, ether-infused broadswords, their synchronized armor plating clanking together as they formed a crescent defensive wall around the registration desk.The crowded line of registering tamers erupted into panicked murmurs, stumbling backward to give the hooded figure a wide berth.Ethan didn't run. He stood perfectly still, his boots anchored to the stone platform. Beneath the heavy hem of his burlap cloak, he could feel Solis's body tensing, the dragon's claws lightly scraping the cobblestone as he prepared to manipulate gravity at a moment's notice."Well, well. Look what the storm dragged back into my city," Asher sneered, stepping down from the raised platform. He held the fist-sized crystal up, its violent, flashing crimson light reflecting off his pristine academy uniform. "The scanning array doesn't lie. An anomalous,
