Axis of Retribution
Chao Zhenyu had died.
As he gazed alone into his void of an afterlife, all he could remember was his final moments. His throat had been cut; his helpless body lying bonelessly against the jagged ground. In the distance, he caught sight of a blurry silhouette. But when he tried to speak, the only noise that came out was the gargling of blood. And soon, even that person had left him to die.
From beginning until the end, he was alone…
Until he woke up in the body of “Zain Valefor”. Now surrounded by excess wealth and a lifestyle that screamed extravagance, Chao Zhenyu has to navigate the hidden dangers underneath the gilded exterior.
But as his memories begin to blur, and as he learns about the mysteries of the world- from the Gods to the people They blessed or ignored- darker questions begin to arise.
In this pit of laughable humanity and Gods’ residue he was beginning to call a home, who, or what, could he possibly trust?
