Against overwhelming odds, he fights tooth and nail to carve out a legacy. Despite his brilliance in strategy and marvels in combat, failure becomes his ultimate fate. But fate offers him another chance.

In a world where fate often seems cruel, one man is given a rare gift – a second chance. Dr. Robert Williams, a forty two years old brilliant scientist, had sacrificed everything for his research: his youth, family, social life, and love. After 22 years of tireless work, he had finally achieved the impossible – creating the first-ever vaccine for an incurable disease. But his triumph was short-lived. His research partner submitted the paper under her own name, and the institute's director – her husband – silenced Robert's protests. Crushed and defeated, Robert saw no escape from despair. On the brink of hopelessness, he made the desperate decision to end his life. Yet fate had other plans. Instead of death, Robert found himself reborn in a world where magic and technology coexisted, and nothing was really a myth! The world was divided into seven distinct realms; and he was now Ryker Wales, a 20-year-old commoner in the weakest realm, the first realm. Memories of his past life still lingered, a bittersweet reminder of his failures and regrets. The pain of losing his life's work to someone else's greed still burned within him. Ryker's new reality was also unforgiving, with the first realm being exploited and oppressed by stronger realms. From his past experiences, he knew that to survive, he needed two things: power and money. That's why, when the opportunity to compete for the title of Lord of the Seventh Realm, the strongest ruler of the world, knocked the door, he seized it without a second thought. Ryker ignited a spark of determination within himself. Fueled by the injustices of his past, he was driven by a fierce resolve to succeed. Through all the thicks and thins, Ryker pressed on, undaunted. Thus began the journey of Ryker Wales, a man reborn – a journey that would test his courage, wit, and resolve in ways he never imagined.

There is a disease running through the world. They call it the rot. A world were people can get stronger by simply getting sicker. A dystopian future, a dilapidated wasteland, and many more things. A slow start which gains momentum. A mysterious background, a world of deities and contracts, of crazed animalistic monsters infested by the same rot. The only salvation known to Konrad are the facilities, run by the Church Lords. Him, entering a world of rot, deities of bygone eras and forbidden knowledge. A harrowing tale unfolds, with he who never knew anything but the Doctrine faces a world of terror. Will he survive and perhaps thrive? Where it came from, or where it would go—these remain a mystery. And albeit an issue, it was much easier for the people of the earth to submit to the fear, rather than attempt to conquer whatever terrifying thing lay on the other side - they knew its futility. Some would yell, some would cry - all would pray to the earth beneath them, and the heavens above them. A deity would listen, heed their words. Who was it that heard them?
