This world isn’t about magic and knights—it’s about guns, bloodlines, and knowing when to pull the trigger.

Now, I’ve got to survive Ardent Academy, a school where future kings, assassins, swordmasters, and mafia heirs fight for dominance—all while keeping my own family from throwing me into the deep end of the underworld. Oh, and did I mention the author of this world is actually some all-powerful God watching me from the shadows? Yeah. I’m so screwed.
