Red Leader Tord

Kaelen Ashwright was born blessed, marked by the Convergence Star and prophesied to ascend to godhood. They lied. At nineteen, he discovered the truth: the Star wasn't a blessing but a beacon, calling to the Devourers, cosmic horrors that feast on divine essence. Every hundred generations, the Celestial Elders sacrifice one "blessed" soul to buy another century of peace. His father led the ritual. His mentor bound him to the altar. His betrothed drove the blade into his heart. As the Devourers consumed him, Kaelen's last thought was hatred. He wakes as Zain, a crippled street rat with shattered meridians. But Kaelen's soul carries fragments of the Convergence Star, and if he cultivates in this body, the Devourers won't sense him. Using forbidden methods that consume his enemies' essence, Kaelen climbs through the Nine Heavens with an unlikely team: Ryn, a demon-blooded assassin; Kael, a failed cultivator turned weapon merchant; Lyssa, a scholar investigating missing "blessed" children. Together they uncover the conspiracy: The Elders aren't protecting humanity from the Devourers. They're farming it for them. As Kaelen grows stronger, he begins to uncover a lot of mysteries, a lot of hidden mysteries in the realm, like Celestia being reborn alongside him seven times, forced to kill him again and again. Now Kaelen faces an impossible choice: complete his revenge and doom his mother forever, save the Nine Heavens and let his family go unpunished, or break the cycle and face the Primordial Void, which has been manipulating everyone since the beginning. What will a cultivator reincarnated in the body of a cripple do? Find out in this awesome fantasy story titled, Redeeming the Broken Star.

In the world of Aethelgard, fate is not written in the stars—it is decided by the cards you hold. While the nobles of the Spire are born with legendary Golden Decks filled with dragons, holy magic, and divine relics, the poor are left with broken scraps barely worth surviving with. Kai is nothing more than a nameless mine slave with no Deck, no status, and no future. But when a deadly cave-in uncovers a hidden flaw in the world’s perfect system, his destiny changes forever. Buried beneath the ruins, Kai discovers [The Wildcard]—a corrupted card capable of becoming anything. A god-slaying sword. A forbidden spell. A monstrous beast. Or… a useless wooden spoon. Unstable, unpredictable, and feared by the system itself, the Wildcard turns Kai into a threat to the very order of Aethelgard. Armed with a chaotic deck forged from literal trash, stolen relics, and impossible combinations, Kai enters the brutal climb of the Spire where every duel is a gamble and every defeat means death. To survive, he must outplay nobles, crush legendary card wielders, and uncover the truth behind the Deck system that controls the world. Because in Aethelgard, power belongs to those lucky enough to draw it. But Kai was never lucky. He cheats fate itself. A dark fantasy progression novel packed with ruthless battles, evolving cards, deadly tower climbs, and a zero-to-overpowered journey where the weakest slave may become the greatest wildcard the world has ever seen.
