Chapter 1 - Prologue

Destiny is nothing but a script, and the one who is among us, an ancient and dark entity, has returned to write it as he pleases. The Empire, vast and corrupt, is preparing to receive the devil rising from the shadows. But this is no ordinary return. The being known as the one who is among us, once so powerful that his very thoughts could alter the flow of the universe, has awakened in a mortal body, stripped of his former greatness.

By shedding his mana and aura to use eter, the price was steep. The sensations of emptiness and weakness constantly assault him, reminding him that the infinite strength he once possessed has faded. The pain is palpable, but his will is ironclad, and with each step, the power he once held begins to revive. The lack of power weakens him, but it does not stop him. It only strengthens him, pushing him forward, toward what is to come.

The one who walks among us manipulates the threads of fate as if they were mere puppet strings, weaving a play in which he is the protagonist, the director, and the only actor that matters. In his wake, he will take all he desires: women, wealth, power, and entire families. He will destroy, corrupt, and rewrite the course of history.
