Underdog Rise

13 Heavens: Rise of the Bloodline Dreg The Aura is back. And the world will never be the same. Three years ago, the Great Revival flooded Earth with cosmic energy. Cities turned into wild jungles. Skyscrapers were wrapped in massive, deadly plants. Legendary beasts roamed the streets of New York. And the only rule left? Power, the power to cultivate. Leo Kaelen was born with everything. A name from one of the five ancient bloodlines. A future full of promise. And now… he has nothing. “Bloodline Dreg,” they sneer. “Scavenger,” they call him. His family is disgraced. Their cultivation methods lost. And Leo is forced to survive in a city that wants him dead, fighting for scraps while monsters hunt him at every turn. Then, during a fight for his life in a long-forgotten ancient site, Leo discovers something that changes everything: a celestial system has awakened inside him. “You… you’re not ready for this,” the system warns. “I have no choice,” Leo snaps. This is the Path of the Perfect Foundation. Where others celebrate reaching the 11th level of cultivation, Leo is forced toward the unheard-of 13th. Where others build stable Foundations, he must forge a Chaos Foundation. Where others strengthen their skin to deflect knives, he must harden his to Diamond Hide. It’s a curse. And it’s the ultimate weapon. In a city ruled by ruthless families and crawling with primordial beasts, Leo must hide his impossible power. Every secret level he unlocks brings him closer to the truth behind the Aura Revival and closer to becoming the target of every force that wants to control the new world… or watch it burn. In a world of giants, the one with the deepest foundation will rise highest.

Ares Valen was an ordinary man—until a lightning storm tore reality apart and hurled him into another world. He wakes up inside the dying body of a forgotten prince on a collapsing frontier: a barren desert, starving civilians, half-orc raiders, berserk tribes, and warlords fighting over the last scraps of land. Death closes in from every direction. Then a familiar voice echoes in his mind: “Rome: Total War system initialized.” The world changes. With this strange power, Ares can summon Roman legions, build ancient cities, unlock divine blessings, and command armies that grow stronger after every victory. As the chosen War Priest of Jupiter, he gains divine skills, awakens legendary commanders, and turns a dying settlement into a rising force feared across the frontier. But enemies are everywhere— dark mages, barbarian clans, forgotten gods, and kingdoms long fallen into ruin. In the shadows, something ancient begins to stir again… the same force that once destroyed this land. Aretian has only one path left: Rise. Conquer. Survive. And forge a new Rome in a world that has never known its might. War. Strategy. Divine power. A legend begins at the edge of the desert.

Julian’s heart skipped a beat. His mind raced as he tried to make sense of what he was seeing. He knew Ethan and Eva were close—too close at times—but this was different. This felt... wrong. His eyes flickered over the rest of the conversation, each message confirming his worst fear. The exchanges were casual at first, playful even, but then they turned more intimate. There was talk of meeting up “in secret,” of how much they missed each other, of their “special time” together. Julian’s throat tightened, the words blurring as his pulse quickened. He scrolled back through the messages, his hands trembling as the truth slowly sunk in.

"Son?" His face brightened. He was an orphan, despised by everyone in society. The only one that he thought he loved betrayed him on their wedding anniversary.

"I'll rise above this, and you'll face the consequences of your actions," he declared, a silent promise to himself amidst the noisy laughter. “Now, you see that she was only using you all these time,” Jack said, and Sydney smiled slyly. Sydney's cold words cut through the air, echoing her heartless confession. "That's so true, I only used you to solve my Math problems. I would never want to kiss a guy drowning in unending poverty. This is not a fairy tale, where a princess gets to kiss a frog," Sydney declared, glancing down at the hole on the top of Micheal's shoe.
