Sin City Graphic

Samuel Gray is no one special. Just another forgotten soul in the lower levels of Novus City a place where dreams are traded for survival and even hope comes with a price. Each day blurs into the next as he delivers packages to people who don’t see him, eats food that barely tastes like anything, and falls asleep wondering if this is all life has to offer. But everything changes the night he tries to help a stranger and bleeds out in an alley. On the edge of death, a voice echoes in the darkness. > “Vitality Critical. Initializing Ascension Protocol. Do you accept?” In that moment, Samuel awakens something unimaginable: a system interface that turns the laws of life into a game complete with stats, quests, abilities, and something far more dangerous purpose.

But the Ascension System didn’t choose him at random. There’s a reason he was chosen. There’s a cost to rising. And someone or something is watching.

In the heart of New Verona City — a decaying metropolis built on drugs, debt, and deceit — Luca Marino, a streetwise orphan with a sharp mind and a sharper temper, dreams of escaping the slums. But when his brother is murdered by the powerful Valente crime family, Luca’s life spirals into the dark underbelly of organized crime. To survive, he enters the same world that killed his brother, starting at the bottom as a debt collector in a gang-ridden neighborhood.

Guided by Don Emilio Valente, a charismatic but aging mafia lord, Luca becomes both a protégé and a potential threat. As he rises through the ranks — from street hustler to enforcer to mastermind — Luca forges uneasy alliances, manipulates rival families, and builds a syndicate that answers to no one. But every throne made of concrete is drenched in blood. When love, betrayal, and ambition collide, Luca must decide: is he building an empire… or digging his own grave? “Concrete Thrones” is a gritty tale of survival, deception, and the hunger for dominance — a modern mafia epic where every move could mean power, or death.

To his wife’s powerful family, he is a stain on their reputation, a useless son-in-law who should have been discarded years ago.

They don’t know that the "stray dogs" he chases are actually Hellhounds trying to breach the mortal realm. And they certainly don’t know that Alistair is actually the Calamity Star—the exiled God of War serving a 1,000-year penance to suppress the ancient evil beneath the university library. When the seal begins to crack and the elite families of the city become pawns in a demonic war, the useless security guard finally stands up. "You can insult me all you want," Alistair says, adjusting his uniform cap. "But step one foot past this gate, and not even the Heavens can save you."
