Kaelen the mercenary god in the Middle East
In the heart of a war-torn Middle East, Kaelen is an enigma. At just four years old, his child's body hides the mind and soul of Alistair Thorne, a legendary and ruthless 19th-century elite supersoldier, reborn after a fatal mission. Waking in a modern world not his own, Kaelen finds himself in an impoverished village where survival is the only law.
Far from being a helpless child, Kaelen possesses an innate ability for violence and tactical dominance. His rebirth activates the "God-Level Mercenary System," an advanced interface that not only grants him experience and lethal rewards for each eliminated enemy (from ammunition to medicine and combat analysis) but also unlocks knowledge branches like Military Engineering and Combat Medicine. This system allows him to not just recall and perfect his past skills but also pushes him to surpass his previous limits, learning new mechanics to analyze weapons, hone his physique, and master the art of modern warfare.
When a band of marauders attacks his humble village, Kaelen's brutal efficiency is unleashed. Despite the limitations of his small body and the exhausting fight, he uses the terrain, rudimentary weapons, and his lethal special forces martial arts to decimate the bandits, proving that a child can be the nightmare of any hostile force. His act of protection earns him the respect and fear of the villagers.
However, Kaelen is no conventional savior. As a relentless leader with a clear objective, he warns them that his stay is temporary. With the cold authority of a commander, he forces both children and adults to undergo brutal training, forging them into a legion of survivors. His goal is clear: to transcend his past, dominate the underworld of shadows and arms trafficking, and become the ultimate Mercenary God, capable of raising villages, commanding armies, and overthrowing governments, all while searching for the proper place for his growing power.
