The Ancient Genes

Alex was reborn into Blue Star, a world of advanced technology and modern comforts, yet ruled by the ancient, unchanging power of royal families. As a prince of the mighty Roshar Kingdom, he was born into luxury but cursed with minimal talent for the martial arts that defined this world's elite. Seeing the brutal intrigue within his own family, his sole ambition became a simple one: to avoid the throne's bloody games and survive a long, quiet life of privileged obscurity. That plan shattered when he was framed for a rebellion he knew nothing about. Cast out by the king without a trial or explanation and abandoned by a mother who refused to even say goodbye, Alex was exiled to the Wall—the world's most feared military penal colony. As a low-ranking, seemingly untalented warrior, everyone believed he was being sent to a silent death. But the Wall was not a prison. It was the grim, hidden truth from the normal people. Here, Alex witnessed the real war: a daily, desperate struggle against nightmarish monsters, a crisis kept secret from the peaceful, modern world behind a veil of royal and Council lies. Facing the terror for the first time, he realized the world's cruel hypocrisy and his own terrifying fragility. Yet, in the carnage, he discovered a latent, macabre gift: the ability to harvest strength from the fallen. This power could change everything, offering a path to survival and vengeance. But even as he grasps this chance, burning questions haunt him: Why was he, the deliberately passive prince, chosen as the pawn? Why did his father condemn him without a word? Why is the true horror of their world buried beneath a facade of normalcy? Armed with a secret that could elevate him or mark him for death.

Arthur Pendelton and Lyra Vance are troubled teens who escape their strict boarding school through a giant wardrobe, only to fall into Eldoria. This is no fairy tale. It is a brutal, racist world where Arthur is immediately attacked by a shadow monster. On the brink of death, a sarcastic LitRPG system awakens in his vision to keep him alive. Saved by a foul-mouthed, drunk weasel named Bramble, they are dragged to Ignis Academy. There, they befriend a cowardly boy named Finn and a cynical elf prince named Kaelen. However, corrupt academy elites betray them, opening the gates for the dark entity Malakor. During the slaughter, Finn dies a brutal death to save Lyra. The tragedy completely shatters Arthur's innocence. His system disables his moral limits, turning him into a cold-blooded predator out for revenge. The group sets out to hunt the Shards of Dawn, ancient crystals meant to summon a savior god. Their bloody journey forces them to fight dwarf cartels, survive mind-bending swamps, and orchestrate political assassinations. But after barely surviving a massive war, they uncover a sickening truth. The savior god is actually a psychopathic tyrant who loves committing mass genocide. Refusing to choose between two evil gods, the group launches a suicide assault on Malakor's fortress. While Kaelen and Bramble hold off millions of shadow troops, Arthur and Lyra climb Mount Zenith. Facing Malakor, Arthur makes an insane choice. He shatters the Shard with his bare hands, absorbs its raw energy, and sacrifices his own sanity to brutally tear the dark god apart from the inside. With Eldoria finally at peace, Arthur and Lyra step back through the portal. They return to Earth at the exact second they left, looking like ordinary students but hiding the dark souls of ruthless predators.

But once again, their world is threatened because, in his dark obsession, Damien has managed to open up the gate of the underworld, causing chaos throughout the realm. Elara, a descendant of Theodore, rises to reclaim balance. Much braveness at the cost of sacrifice—she seals the gate, not allowing the works of her ancestors to go in vain. Then comes the turn of the kingdom heiress, Ariadne, guided by ancient prophecies that warn her of resurgent darkness. With the celestial relic, she leads her people in a final battle against encroaching shadows. And through sacrifice and unity, Ariadne attains lasting peace, thus defining her times: resilient and united against trials that forge the fate of their world.

“Don’t make a scene, Marcus.” Quinn’s eyes, always so cold, flicked over him as if he were an unwanted stain. “A Saintess can’t be sullied by a man like you. Keep your distance.” For three years, Marcus Steel was a ghost in his own marriage. His wife, worshipped for her holy power, never let him near—not even a touch, not a night together. Yet every gathering, she let Alexander—her so-called ‘brother,’ his former best friend—rest his head in her lap, her hand stroking his hair, their laughter intimate and careless for the world to see. “Does it ever bother you?” Marcus whispered one night, desperation thick in his voice. “That you give him what you never gave me?” Sophia only smiled, distant as ever. “Alexander needs me. You… you’re just my duty.” When the earthquake shattered the banquet hall, Marcus reached for her through the falling debris. “Quinn! Please! Just take my hand—help me!” But her golden barrier was already around Alexander. She didn’t even look at Marcus as he screamed, “I’m your husband! Don’t leave me—” “I can’t save everyone,” she said, voice like ice. “Alex is injured. I promised to protect him.” As rubble crushed his body and hope faded, something ancient awoke in Marcus. Flames danced in his blood, power surging from the pain, the betrayal. From the ashes of humiliation and heartbreak, a dragon roared to life. Marcus Steel is dead. The Dragon King rises—and the Saintess will beg for mercy she never showed.

“I buried you,” the traitor whispered. “Then dig deeper,” Kaelen replied, voice like sand on steel, “because I’m not done rising.” Zaria stood behind him, the wind pulling strands of her hair like fire-dancers in the dusk. “Let them come,” she said. “We burn hotter together.” The masked woman landed beside them, blades humming with heat. “You still don’t get it,” Kaelen muttered, watching the desert pulse like a living thing. “Get what?” “This isn’t a fight for gold.” “Then what is it?” Kaelen smirked, cracked lips bloodied. “It’s the reckoning.” Kaelen was left for dead in the scorching sands of Sutekh; stripped of his name, his wife, and the child he never met. But the desert doesn’t forget. It carves vengeance into bone. Now, Kaelen rises from the ruins of betrayal as something more than a man: marked by ancient fire, hunted by his half-brother, and haunted by what he can’t remember. As he claws his way back through a kingdom built on secrets, one thing drives him: Zaria. His wife. Missing, maybe dead; or worse, weaponized by those who want to claim a legacy soaked in blood. But Zaria is no victim. Imprisoned and pregnant, she holds the key to an empire long thought dead. And when her twin sister emerges from the shadows to seize that power for herself, love becomes war — and the price of legacy is life itself. In a world where loyalty is a lie and prophecy demands sacrifice, Kaelen must decide: will he reclaim what was stolen; or burn it all to the ground? OF FLAME, SAND, AND GOLD is an epic fantasy of fire-forged vengeance, unbroken love, and the rebirth of a forgotten kingdom.

Ren, a young man considered trash in his sect due to his inability to cultivate, lives in the shadows of ridicule and ostracization. However, he harbors a secret both terrifying and extraordinary: every time he nearly dies from a technique, his body strangely absorbs and copies that technique permanently, making it his own.

This unique condition transforms his suffering into a source of infinite power, propelling him from a loser into an unrivaled entity in the world of cultivation. Ren's journey begins from the bottom, using his first "death" to master basic techniques he couldn't even learn before. With ingenuity and courage, he begins to strategically seek out greater "deaths," allowing himself to be struck by stronger and more dangerous techniques.
