Bitter Love

Eduardo died as a loser on an old pier, beaten to a pulp for refusing to sell his wife’s honor. Yet an ancient artifact revived him through the System of Equivalent Exchange. Eduardo was granted the power to rule the criminal underworld, but at a horrifying price: every inch of power he seized had to be paid for with fragments of his own memories. From his last ragged breaths, Eduardo built an empire. From the blood of his enemies, he forged luxury for the family he loved. But as he climbed the throne as Italy’s supreme Godfather, he realized a bitter tragedy. The wealthier his family became, the more they turned into parasites, ravenous for riches and indifferent to Eduardo’s body as it slowly hollowed out. Amid betrayals of blood and the cold crack of a sniper’s bullet, Eduardo must choose: to die as a man forgotten, or to pass his darkness into the right womb. A blood debt can be repaid, but the price of a memory lasts forever.

A million years have passed since the war that shattered the harmony of Caelestia—the once-divine realm that shimmered with eternal light. The Divinomachy. It began with a betrayal. One of the Supreme Emperor’s most powerful and revered archangels, corrupted by pride, jealousy and ambition, raised his blade against his Creator. His defiance was swift and infectious—many of the Emperor’s faithful servants followed him, seduced by whispers of freedom, power, and a new order. Thus ignited a celestial war — Divinomachy. For one hundred years, the heavens trembled under the weight of clashing divinities. Brother turned against brother. Skies once filled with song now roared with the cries of battle. At last, the Supreme Emperor, weary of endless bloodshed, brought the war to a bitter close. With a divine curse, he cast down the traitors into a prison realm he created—Phlegethon and sealed their leader—while some escaped. Their punishment was eternal. Once-angelic beings were twisted into demons. Their silver skin blackened and grew scales. Their radiant wings darkened into shadows, and crimson replaced their once pure silver eyes. Even their hands bore the mark of damnation—silver claws sprouting where gentle fingers had once been. And when the fallen archangel was finally struck down, a prophecy echoed across the universe—spoken through the Emperor’s oracle: “When the stars realign and the seal weakens, the fallen one shall rise again. But from the forbidden love of both light and darkness shall be born a child—a hybrid. He shall end what the traitor had begun.” Though Caelestia was rebuilt, its wounds never fully healed. For prophecy does not forget, and the chains that bind the fallen grow weaker with every passing age. The ones who escaped hid themselves across the universe, patiently waiting for the return of their master.

"If you had told me from the start, I could have given you more than he ever could. I am King Fox, the legendary God of War!" SLAP! His wife struck him across the face before the crowd. "You’re nothing but a cheap mercenary. I wish you had died in the trenches!" That divorce forced him out of hiding. Now, he will take his revenge to the bitter root and build an unmatched military dynasty.
