Elder Blood

That day was supposed to be their happiest reunion, but it turned out to be the most tragic day of their lives. Born without magic affinity and with a sick brother, Elias took on the burden of sponsoring his brother's beast training after the death of their father. Taking shifts and skipping meals to see him through, only for Kenneth to murder him in cold blood when he returned home for his welcome celebration because they were a stain on his name and weren't worth being called family. However, Elias gets a second chance. Reborn a month before he was betrayed and armed with his knowledge of the future, he intends to make things right this time. A skill that heals beasts in a pandemic-ridden city just became the icing on the cake.

Branded a threat, he is cast out, hunted like a beast, and left for dead by those sworn to protect him. But Kael refuses to die quietly. Haunted by visions, driven by vengeance, and armed with a gift that could destroy gods, he begins his ruthless journey back into a world that tried to bury him. Alliances will shatter.

Born with nine spiritual roots, his fate was sealed—forever trapped at the second level of Qi training. A mountain boy, seen as worthless, is thrown into a cruel experiment by wicked cultivators. Yet, fate takes an unexpected turn. With the Void Tower in hand, he steps onto the path of cultivation. From that moment, the tower became his greatest asset—nurturing spirit herbs, raising immortal beasts, refining pills, crafting talismans, and constructing deadly formations.

But who would have imagined that his journey, too, was once filled with hardship, struggle, and survival against all odds?

James has spent his entire life believing that hatred is the only thing keeping him alive. Born into poverty and shaped by a childhood marked by loss, betrayal, and violence, James learned early that the world does not reward the weak. Alongside his closest friend, Todd, he survived the darkness of the slums and grew into a man who understands humanity better than most. He knows what people will do for money. He knows what fear can make them become. And above all, he knows beneath every noble mask lies the same primitive desires—fear, greed, pride, love, and survival. But James is about to discover some things are far more dangerous than human nature. It begins in a cursed jungle. What was supposed to be a search for hidden treasure becomes a nightmare when James and his companions awaken an ancient evil that has been waiting in the darkness for decades.

And somewhere in the world exists a mysterious stone capable of granting unimaginable power—but every gift it offers comes with a price. James believes he has escaped the jungle. He is wrong. The nightmare has only begun. Far from the cursed wilderness, another world is preparing to descend into chaos. The Pitch is a powerful global syndicate built on wealth, blood, fear, and absolute control. At its center stands Arthur, the Fallen Patriarch—a ruthless man who has spent decades constructing an empire powerful enough to make nations tremble. But Arthur's empire is about to collapse.

“They should cut your hands off before the next ceremony. Why let trash touch the Awakening Stone?” Dante Moretti is the disgrace of Saint Lucian Academy. In a world where power decides status, wealth, and survival, Dante is worse than weak—he is nothing. The Awakening Stone doesn’t glow for him. The examiners laugh behind his back. Students spit insults every time he walks through the halls. “Even stray dogs have instincts,” Renzo Cavalli sneers. “But you? You were born useless.” Every day, Dante endures the humiliation in silence. Being shoved into lockers. Having food dumped over his head. Listening as students compare him to worms beneath their shoes. Because if he quits the academy, his little sister Lucia loses her chance at a future. Then the sky splits open. Monsters descend upon the city, slaughtering everything in sight. Lucia fights to protect innocent people, but a D-rank Blightbearer tears through her defenses and lunges for her heart. Without thinking, Dante steps in front of her. The claw punches through his chest. Blood spills across the road. And the world changes. His blood rises into the air. A forbidden voice echoes inside his skull— [Mother System activated.] When Dante opens his eyes again, they burn gold. The monsters freeze. The air trembles. And the boy everyone called worthless smiles for the first time in years. “You spent your whole lives looking down on me,” he whispers. “Now learn what it feels like to kneel.” Three D-rank monsters disappear from existence in a storm of crimson light. Now the same academy that mocked him fears him. The same elites who treated him like dirt suddenly want his loyalty. But Dante hasn’t forgotten the laughter. And this time… the weakest boy in the world is no longer asking for acceptance.

THE DRAGON’S ASHES In the Kingdom of Valen, power belongs to those who possess mana. Mages command the elements. Spell-knights serve the crown.
