Mages Civilization

Riven was a young man with dreams as vast as the horizon, but life demanded sacrifice. To support his struggling family, he gave up his education and ambitions, shouldering endless work to keep them afloat. Yet, his loyalty was met with the ultimate betrayal by his own father. As his life slipped away, Riven awoke in an unfamiliar world brimming with magic, reincarnated by a mysterious system. Gifted with a peculiar mana heart that pulses with untold power, Riven is thrust into a realm of mages, monsters, and ancient secrets. Determined to rise above his tragic past, Riven vows to become the strongest mage in this new world, uncovering the mysteries of his strange mana heart and the enigmatic system that guides him.

In a world shaped by gods, destiny, and prophecy, everything follows a predetermined cycle. The Five Goddesses rule the heavens, having sealed away their sole brother, Kaelis, the God of Unity, long ago—twisting his name into the God of Chaos to erase his true purpose. With his fall, the Hero’s Party defeated the Demon Lord, and non-human races perished one by one, leaving only humans to rule the world. Before Kaelis was sealed, however, eight monoliths descended, warning that once every odd century, a Destined One would be born—either a harbinger of chaos or tranquility. This prophecy became an unshakable truth, with the world rising and falling in accordance with these chosen individuals. Yet, centuries later, long after the last Destined One passed, the world faced a new calamity. The ley lines of mana, the lifeblood of magic, began to wither. The Church of the Five declared it divine will, while scholars and mages sought a solution. One woman—a brilliant but infamous sorceress—discovered the cause and took it upon herself to restore the mana flow. She succeeded—but her actions tore open a rift between dimensions, unleashing monsters not born of this world. Though the breach was eventually sealed, the damage was irreversible. The world changed forever, and she vanished into legend—reviled by some, revered by others. Now, in the present era, the world exists in tenuous balance. Monsters roam the land, kings rule their fractured domains, and the Church maintains its iron grip. No new Destined One has emerged. The world expects another cycle to begin. Then, he is born. A child without prophecy, without divine origin, without fate. A soul not from this world. Unlike the Destined Ones of legend, his birth was never foreseen by the gods—an impossibility that throws the celestial order into chaos and confusion. For the first time, something has entered this world without the hand of the divine guiding it. He is not a hero. He is not the chosen one. He is an anomaly. And in a world where destiny dictates all, a man with no fate may be the most dangerous force of all.

After dying in a tragic accident, a modern-day scholar wakes up in the body of a legendary yet feared Mage-King from ancient times. The kingdom he now rules is on the verge of collapse—riddled with corruption, betrayal, and external threats. However, unlike his new body's former self, who was known for his cruelty and tyranny, the reincarnated Mage-King possesses the wisdom of his past life and a fresh perspective on leadership. Armed with the most powerful magic in the land, political cunning, and knowledge from two lifetimes, he must navigate court politics, war, and ancient prophecies while deciding whether to embrace his new identity or forge an entirely new destiny.

(Author Note: The story tries to avoid the cliches and focuses on crime and politics. Not sure about titles with the same quality as this one but I take elements from the usual isekai and mash them with the Korean style characters and attention to details while avoiding the Chinese repetitive plots and the Japanese beta male leads. This is an Egyptian MC whom you have never seen any like before. He kisses babies and slaps bitches… or kisses bitches and slaps babies… depending on which day of the week it is. He's a mean guy and he knows kung fu. One time an author tried to write him in a novel, the novel almost absorbed the author and he went into a torturous isekai. What more can I say?

The Failed Experiment The void stretched endlessly, an abyss of swirling darkness where neither time nor space held meaning. Within this infinite emptiness, a single entity drifted— a formless mass of energy, barely clinging to existence. His name was Orion Graves. Or, at least, that was the name given to him before he was discarded like a failed experiment. The Forbidden Project Deep within the hidden research facilities of Earth's Goddesses, a secret project was underway—one that could shatter the fragile balance of the universe. For centuries, humanity had pushed the limits of genetic evolution, seeking the perfect Evolver—one who could transcend all limitations, wield power beyond comprehension, and tip the scales in their favor. But the Ancient Order, the silent executioners of the universe's balance, had long ensured that no single civilization could dominate. The Goddesses—War, Fate, and AllMother—had defied this law. They sought to create an Evolver that was not bound by the restrictions of standard evolution—a being that could rewrite reality itself. The result? A forbidden physique that even they did not fully understand. But something went wrong. Orion was a failure. Unlike Earth's Top 100 Unique Talents or even other average humans, whose Inner Worlds flourished with mighty Core Civilizations, Orion's Inner World was a barren wasteland—lifeless, devoid of potential. His Core Civilization, the Nameless Abyss, was deemed worthless, a void with no future. The Goddesses had no choice. The project was abandoned, the research base hidden away from prying eyes. But the universe had already taken notice and it will never allow a threat. The Fall of the Research Base The attack came suddenly. A coalition of civilizations, fearing what the Goddesses had attempted, launched an all-out assault on the secret facility. Even the Ancient Order remained silent, allowing the destruction to unfold. The Goddesses, who couldn't protect an ant like existence while fighting made a desperate decision. They activated a space wormhole, sending Orion into the void before the facility was destroyed. It was an act of defiance and hope—a gamble that one day, this failed experiment might become something greater and useful. As he was swallowed by the vortex, Orion caught a final glimpse of the Goddesses' avatars, their cold mechanical gazes watching him disappear. And then, there was only darkness. The Awakening in the Void When Orion awoke, he was alone. His body floated in a shattered realm, remnants of civilizations long lost drifting around him like ghosts. His Inner World remained empty, his Nameless Abyss Core Civilization still a void. He was supposed to be dead. A failure. Forgotten. Yet, as he gazed into the darkness, something stirred within him. The Nameless Abyss… was hungry. A whisper echoed in his mind, ancient and unknown. "Devour… and become." And for the first time, Orion realized: He was not a failure. He was something the universe had never seen before. And soon, the universe would learn to fear him End of Prologue. Next: Chapter 1 - The Nameless Abyss Awakens.
