Synopsis: THE THRONE THAT HEAVEN FEARED Ten years ago, the Thorne Clan—guardians of the Primordial Seal—were slaughtered in a single night of fire and steel. The killers weren’t monsters, but the Seven Stars Alliance: the very allies who swore to protect them. Cassian Thorne, the young heir, didn't just lose his family; he watched as his "friends" shattered his cultivation core, turning him into a "Dross"—a human without a soul-pulse, destined to be a slave in a world of magic. Now, Cassian is a janitor at the elite Phoenix Academy, scrubbing the floors for the children of the men who murdered his parents. He is the academy’s punching bag, a "walking corpse" mocked by all. But the world doesn't know the truth. His core wasn't shattered; it was transformed. For ten years, Cassian has been a living battery, absorbing every insult, every beating, and every ounce of malicious energy thrown at him. The Seal is full. The "Dross" is waking up. And this time, he isn't just reclaiming his throne—he’s coming to devour the gods.

Dr. Ken Ardent did not vanish—he was buried alive by the state he tried to save. Once a famous geneticist in his previous life, Ken is now a ghost in the submerged maze beneath Amsterdam, leading a handful of outcast scientists who are themselves experts. Their bodies have been irreversibly rewritten, holding a feared secret: the cure for immunity. When the virus he has long foreseen brings devastation to Europe, Ken is the continent's most sought-after man. The same people who put him away as a criminal now scour the underwater canals, praying to catch his work. But his suggested remedy is a double-edged sword—to reveal it is to sign his people's death warrant. Traitor from within and pursued by an unstoppable inspector who sees not a cure but a biological weapon, Ken is driven to the brink. He must decide between protecting the only family he has left behind, or unleashing a discovery that can save the world—or complete its destruction. In a town where all gossip is heard and all friends can be enemies, the only thing more contagious than the plague is the truth.

"Come on, waiter," Tom taunted, his voice dripping with contempt. "You should lick it up while it's still cool," he added with a sly chuckle as his friends eagerly removed their phones to capture August’s humiliation for their amusement. August was devastated, the money he had been saving for the past eight months barely amounted to $180. How would he muster $800 to spare himself from this humiliating ordeal? Stooping that low to lick the liquor on the floor was an option he rather succumbed to death sooner than consider.  "Please, give me until tomorrow. I'll find a way to borrow the money and pay you back," August pleaded, desperation creeping into his voice. But Tom was not having it with him. “No waiter, everything starts and end today. If you are going to pay me the money then is going to be today and right now, or I will have to force you to lick up the liquor”. August's devastation intensified as he realized the gravity of the situation, this was not optional like Tom presented it the first time. His intentions were clear; he did not at all cared about the money all he wanted was to have August lick the floor for their amusement.
