SSS-Class Sealed Villain: I Broke the Seal to Save My Mother
What would you do if the person who loved you most...was the one who hid your powers?
Michael always thought his father was just strict. Overprotective.
He never imagined that the man who raised him had shackled his very soul, sealing away his true power with a golden curse meant to keep him "safe."
But safety... is just another word for a cage.
After stumbling upon a hidden chamber beneath his family's castle, Michael awakens a force long buried...and with it, the truth of who he really is. Thrown into a shattered realm beyond reality, the Starfall Sanctum, he meets ancient spirits, forgotten weapons, talking swords, divine beasts, and fragments of a legacy he was never meant to remember.
He’s not just a boy with a temper.
He's the final heir of the Ashborne Devil Clan, a bloodline feared by gods, hunted by sects, and wiped from history for being too dangerous to exist.
Every night, he is torn apart and every morning, he reforges himself sharper than before.
But through the pain, he finds more than strength.
He finds love—fierce, fragile, and unexpected and a reason to keep going that isn’t just rage.
And above all, he makes a vow:
To bring his mother back from the void.
To tear through realms if he has to.
To finish the battle she died starting.
Now, the seal is shattered. His Umbral Core is awakened.
And with it, come memories soaked in blood, a clan erased by betrayal, and a destiny that could set entire worlds on fire.
This isn’t just a story of power.
It’s about the boy they tried to keep small and what happens when he refuses to stay that way.
