In a modern world draped in the illusion of normalcy, secrets crawl beneath the surface. Cities bustle with unaware citizens, blind to the existence of the gifted, warriors, healers, mages, and monster hunters, born to protect a fragile balance between reality and chaos. Among them lies one boy, invisible to destiny… until destiny calls his name. Ridiculed, discarded, and cast aside, 17-year-old Kael Ardyn is a nobody with no spark of magic or strength. But when he saves an old beggar from thugs, Kael is taken in by the man, who reveals himself to be a forgotten legend of the ancient world.

As monsters tear through cities, noble families scheme, and powerful organizations hunt the reborn legend, Kael finds himself at the center of a hidden war, a war he might just be born to end. But power comes with a price. Can he uncover his true lineage before it consumes him? Or is he merely a pawn in a game older than time?

The Demon Lord had grown weary of his existence as the strongest being alive. Power no longer thrilled him; victory had lost its taste. The only thing he now looked forward to was listening to the stories of Lucian, a human captive. Of all the tales Lucian told, the Demon Lord most enjoyed those about the quiet lives of ordinary humans — their laughter, struggles, and fleeting joys. He envied that simplicity and secretly wished he could experience it himself. One day, as Lucian spoke, the demons under his rule rose in rebellion. They gathered their strength and turned against their lord. The Demon Lord, instead of resisting, welcomed the uprising. At last, he saw a chance to end his long, lonely reign. When he fell, his powerful soul refused to fade. It drifted through the void for centuries, searching, wandering — until it found a newborn’s body, one that had just died moments before. And just like that, the Demon Lord began life anew — as an ordinary human. But some beings, no matter how they try, can never truly remain ordinary.

Dying a tragic death after being betrayed and used as a mere tool, the young man swore that he would never live for anyone else again if he were ever given a second chance. Yet, fate threw his soul into the body of Aldric—an illegitimate son of a king, who had been slaughtered at the bottom of the Forbidden Forest's ravine by his very own biological father. On the brink of death for the umpteenth time, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed inside his head: [Egoist System Activated]. This mysterious system did not require a holy hero. Instead, his power points surged drastically every time he made a selfish and ruthless decision. Forged by the darkness of the cursed forest, he began to crawl his way back up with a black sword in hand, preparing to tear down the royal throne built upon demonic sacrificial rituals. He did not return to become a savior for this rotten world. He came to seize the highest throne, and to become a monster far more terrifying than the rulers before him. "For the deepest wounds never give birth to a hero."

"The first step towards the query for the real truth is being able to accept that it might be different from the truth that you believe in." If Ryle wasn't quick enough to use the 3rd Myriad Life: Transmigration, his life would have ended, because Equera, who he considered as his mother, made her consume a potent poison. What made Ryle confused was Equera was in tears and was embracing him as he was taking his last breaths. Would someone who had done an act of betrayal do that? No as an answer would be an understatement. Ryle's magic allowed him to be transmigrated 300 years later in the future and was in the body of Jadren, the 16-years-old young master of the Hlezel Family. As Ryle lived his life as Jadren, he was seeking for the answers behind his death, because instead of being angry, Ryle was instead filled with questions. Ryle believed that Equera would never poison him to death for no reason. Be an audience as he who transmigrated with myriad life, Ryle, embarks on a journey to figure out the truth behind his death. Was Ryle's death an another case of betrayal or there was a purpose behind it?

The last strand of patience I had snapped into shreds when she chose her ex-lover’s son over our dying daughter. Now she paraded around smiling, flaunting him like a trophy, while I was left with nothing but the cold, lifeless body of my child. This wasn’t about hurt anymore. It wasn’t even about pain. She’d stolen a soul from me — and she would feel every atom of what I felt, and more. “I want a divorce.” “That’s not happening. You and I are in this together,” she screeched, eyes boring into mine, searching for the man who always bent to her will. “You will sign the papers,” I said, every word a quiet stone. “Make me!” I stepped closer. My hand closed at her throat — delicate, trembling under my grip — and forced her to meet me. “Sign the papers,” I whispered, voice low and cold. “Or I’ll make you suffer so that even our daughter hears your screams from six feet under.”
