A Slow Fire Burning A

Dennis Lawson survived life at Blackthorn Academy the only way he knew how—by enduring humiliation. As a powerless scholarship student in a school built for awakened elites, he was nothing more than a target. Wealth and abilities ruled Blackthorn, and Dennis had neither. Jack Voss, a powerful Pyro and heir to a billion-dollar empire, made sure of that. Public beatings, cruel pranks, and constant humiliation became part of Dennis’s daily life, watched and ignored by everyone. Still, Dennis endured—for his mother. He worked tirelessly after school to pay for her medication, believing hard work would eventually save them both. That hope shattered when he finally achieved a national science breakthrough, only to have it stolen. His girlfriend, Maya, betrayed him, handing his work to Jack. Then, to erase him completely, they locked him in a burning basement and left him to die. But death was not the end. A global awakening changed the world, granting abilities to those with hidden bloodlines. In the flames, something inside Dennis awakened too. He died… and woke up in a new body. Along with a terrifying power—the Predator System. An ability that allows him to steal the skills, strength, and abilities of those who oppress others. Especially Jack Voss. Now, Dennis is no longer the boy they broke . He is something far worse. And he’s coming back for everything they took.

Inside the Milky Way exists another solar system similar but smaller compared to our own Solar System - the Concord System. Within Concord, there are three planets, each inhabited by unique beings and species unknown to humans. The Shkals, also known as the Dark Disciples, are collectively known as the Empire. These warlike and militarized beings who inhabit the blood-red planet, called Blimork, wield the powers of magic, fire, and the shadows. The Frosts, also known as "The Unknown", thrive in an icy-blue planet - Nitronia. These beings are peaceful but should not be underestimated for they control the dominant elements of their planet - water, ice, and air. The Elementals inhabit a yellowish-green and Earth-like planet, called Pyreon. These beings have the edge among the three races - possessing any kind of power within their capabilities. The origin of the Concord remains a blur. With the uprising activity of the Empire, the secrets lying within the Concord are slowly being utilized for one goal - Concord Colonization. The Empire considers their neighbors as hindrances and has started operations against them. Who can stop them?

“The Aura chose him. The System changed him.” The Aura arrived without warning. Draven Ashford was stacking canned peaches in a dusty Cleveland supermarket, humming off-key just to fill the silence. “Another thrilling night,” he muttered. He reached for the next can and the air suddenly thickened, warm and heavy. “Uh… hello?” he whispered. A soft green glow rolled across the floor like fog. The shelves shook.
