I think it is about time he changes that. Yet smart people are often taken advantage of dying without being able to credit their own works.

Bound by an ancient cycle, these gods continually perish and are reborn, stripped of memories, doomed to a fleeting existence. But Yuuna harbors a dark secret—her heart is the key to breaking this eternal chain. Desperate for salvation, the divine beings unite with a sinister intent: to kill Yuuna and seize her heart. Enter Xyenn, a 19-year-old with nothing but contempt for gods and a thirst for revenge. Yuuna, ever the strategist, binds this unlikely hero to her cause, sharing her formidable powers with him through a binding contract. Together, they dive into a maelstrom of divine conspiracies and battles. But amidst the chaos and battles, could there emerge an unexpected bond, perhaps love? Or does their alliance simply herald more destruction and sorrow in this god-forsaken world? Only time will tell in this high-stakes game of gods and hearts.
