The Ancient Genes

Julian lost everything in one night. Strapped to a steel chair beneath a single flickering bulb, he watched the woman he loved sell his body to pay her family’s debt. His right eye was carved out and shipped to a client in Geneva. His marriage? A lie. His loyalty? A joke whispered over champagne. They thought the stray dog would die quietly. They were wrong. When Julian wakes in a charity ward, something ancient burns inside his empty socket. With a single glance, he can see the hidden value of anything—stocks, secrets, lies. Fortunes glow. Fraud screams in gold. And the future whispers its price. The same night his ex-wife announces her engagement, Julian turns five thousand dollars into two hundred million—and buys the debt that once enslaved him. Now he owns the Sterlings. In a city ruled by billionaires and butchers, Julian is no longer prey. He is the market. And he is coming to collect.

With his system and his guide, Maia, set in another world, will Alex become human again and get his revenge, or will he remain in his half metal body and be punished with the condition of having to live forever in it?
