In the summoning classroom, first-year students lined up with excitement to summon their familiars. Professor Sylvia smiled brightly. “Begin your summoning!” In a flash, majestic beasts, elemental spirits, and glowing creatures filled the room.

Now, instead of summoning, he can combine things to create something new. Powerful? Maybe. Useful? Sometimes. Like that time Leon proudly said, “Watch this amazing fusion!” And after an hour of intense effort… he fused two cloaks into a pair of shorts. “...” “Leon, I think you should just stick to summoning.” Follow Leon — the quiet, awkward kid with broken eyes and a weirder fate — on a journey of chaos, crafting, and occasional competence.

THE FALLEN ONE (TFO)

For a thousand years, the Empire of Verdun has ruled in peace and prosperity, rising from the ashes of the Great War to become the strongest force the world has ever known. But history has a way of circling back—and now, something ancient, something long buried, is beginning to stir. Forgotten secrets are resurfacing. Strange forces are gathering in the shadows. And the empire’s golden age may soon come crashing down. In the midst of this looming storm, a boy awakens in a desolate forest—alone, wounded, and with no memory of who he is. He has no name, no past to cling to—only questions that lead to more mysteries. Taken in by strangers, he begins to piece together a world on the brink of change: rulers tightening their grip, unrest brewing in the outer provinces, and whispers of powers that defy even the empire’s might. But the boy is different. Something in him doesn’t belong to this era. Something ancient moves beneath his skin—something the world has forgotten, but will soon remember. As rebellion simmers and old powers reawaken, the nameless boy stands at the heart of it all. His fate, and the fate of Verdun, are bound together. He must uncover the truth of who he is... before the empire’s final hour strikes. One thing is certain—the world of Verdun will never be the same again. And neither will he.

Birth of the Ruler: The Emergence of the Primordial Race

Tags: Celestials, Demons, Titans, Magic, .... Before Earth’s destruction, Zion was involved in a tragic accident that caused his soul to escape the planet. This event spared him from witnessing the catastrophic disaster that annihilated all life, leaving no living creature behind. However, Earth and every soul connected to it underwent an on imaginable distribution as they got refined by the Celestial being for its mysterious purpose. Both souls and matter were erased from existence. After 1,000 cosmic years, Zion was reborn as a Titan, a member of the legendary Primordial Race. Myths tell of how, after creating the Seven Heavens and the Seven Hells, the Cosmos populated them with two opposing forces: the Celestial Race, who adhered to cosmic laws to refine their divinity, and the Demon Race, who defied those same laws in their pursuit of power. But the Celestials and Demons were not the Cosmos’ final creations. A third race was unintentionally born, the Primordials, beings capable of bending the very laws of reality. Feared for their overwhelming power, their existence threatened the delicate balance of creation. To prevent chaos, the Cosmos sacrificed itself, using its own essence to seal the Primordials at the edge of the Void, far beyond the reach of the heavens and hells. Zion, born as the first true Primordial through natural birth, an act that defied cosmic laws, became a member of the Nihiliths, a noble Void Primordial clan. His unique existence granted him unparalleled abilities to manipulate the fabric of reality itself, marking him as a being of extraordinary potential. But his life was far from easy. The Celestials and Demons, unable to rival the Primordials’ power, discovered loopholes in the ancient seal. Out of envy and greed, they began abducting newborn Primordials, exploiting their essence for twisted experiments, weapons, and forbidden alchemy. Zion uncovers a dark truth: the destruction of Earth was not a natural catastrophe but a calculated act to prevent humanity’s evolution into a race capable of rivaling the heavens. Now, Zion must rise as the leader of the scattered and sealed Primordials. He must unite his people, protect them from the relentless schemes of Celestials and Demons, and uncover the secrets behind the Cosmos’ ultimate sacrifice. To reclaim the Primordials’ rightful place in the universe, Zion must embrace his full potential, even if it means bending the laws of creation itself and challenging the balance of existence. releasing days: Monday, Wednesday, Friday
