Once every 10,000 years, the heavens open, and the Mortal Realm is cast into turmoil. The Great Reset begins—a cosmic reckoning where empires fall, beasts awaken, and only the strongest carve their names into eternity. For those who survive, the path to the Astral Realm and the right to claim divinity awaits. Raikai, a warrior forged in storms, wields the power of the Celestial Iron Body Cultivation, his flesh tempered into living steel. His Death Arms—twin scythes bound by chains—dance like a mythological dragon, crackling with lightning, capturing and tearing apart those who stand in his way. Beside him stands Shinryu, swift and precise, blessed by the Celestial Tiger. His Death Arms, a pair of white leather gloves with retractable claws, strike with divine speed—every slash a whisper of the heavens’ fury. Together, they ascend the path of blood and power, bound by brotherhood yet tested by fate. Their bond is their greatest strength, but in a world where the Death Arms grow with their wielders—feeding on their victories and failures—power often demands a terrible price. As the 10,000-year Reset begins, ancient titans stir, forgotten sects rise from the shadows, and primordial beasts long thought extinct awaken. The heavens will bear witness as Raikai and Shinryu defy the gods—or die trying. In an age where flesh is reforged into iron and weapons evolve alongside the soul—two brothers will challenge destiny itself!

"As the Supreme Commander of The Wall, my duty is clear: to hold back the threats from the south—mutant monsters, ogres, cyclops, or... hopefully not... the return of the orcs. The kings and lords of Middle Earth do not care. To them, we are just a bunch of 'Outcasts,' exiled criminals and soldiers pushed to the margins. That’s fine. It's better if they stay out of our way. Corrupt politicians rarely care about real security." He looks down at the Outcast barracks below, where the central headquarters commands the entire Wall, separating the south from the main continent. Wisps of smoke rise from the kitchens, carrying the scent of salty, stale soup. The Outcasts atone for their sins or suppress their grief through dangerous missions in exchange for a few gold coins, following the rigorous standards set long ago. Such is life at The Wall. "I, Oldman, am not a religious man. But I interpret the legacy of past eras as a reminder: The world has never truly been at peace. The evil forces of all ages—fragments, orcs, or dragons—will always lurk. Humans, dwarves, elves, whoever they may be, could end up killing each other, driven by cunning deceit. And now, the only barrier holding back the southern threat is The Wall... and us, the Outcasts. Perhaps history will remember us as nameless heroes, or perhaps it will forget us. But as long as I stand here, I will not allow the monsters from the south and other darknesses to spread across the continent again." "I am Oldman... In a world that has cast us out, we stand amidst the darkness. We have no land, no name, only this path. We are the shadows behind this wall. We are the forgotten guardians of the world. We are the Outcasts, and we will endure, or die on our path."

In a universe where transmigrators are mere pieces in a cosmic game, Nael Supremium stands out as the storm that no god dares control. His soul, which transcends reality itself, is so powerful that neither his physical forms, his bloodlines, nor his very consciousness could bear its weight – so it had to be sealed along with his identity to preserve his body. He is a Supreme Nephilim, the explosive result of a fusion between Supreme Celestial blood and Supreme Original Demon blood, possessing a latent power so mysterious that even his system—and other transmigrators’ "golden fingers"—proved insignificant compared to his true essence. Yet, do not be deceived: Nael is not invincible. He is vulnerable when trying to control even a fraction of that power. He bleeds, grows tired, and bears scars from a brutal past – after all, in another life, he reduced a third of the Earth to ashes. His strength lies, above all, in a silent pact: no one will make him kneel. Transcend his limits, and even the Primordials will not hear your screams echoing in the void. The world knows several types of transmigrators: The Villains of Destiny: Those who challenge the heavens with arrogance; The Sons of the Heavens: Blessed with divine domains; The Conquerors: Architects of empires with their "golden fingers"; The Harem Lords: Collectors of beauties – whom Nael tolerates... to a point. But there is one type he hates: NTRadors, parasites who steal other people's bonds for pleasure. For those, Nael doesn't want to see around and if they dare to think about putting the wrong finger in the wrong places. It's not revenge — it's cosmic justice. Hidden in the mortal realm thanks to his mother, Celestia Supremium – the Ruler of Space-Time and Light – Nael conceals the Donor’s Physique, a cursed inheritance that turns any intimate relationship into divine ascensions, yet proves useless to its possessor. His disguise? A "failure" under the care of Elowen, his enigmatic maid, who hides a secret: she is the Mother of Fates, bearer of the Celestial Destiny Soul of Beginnings, and one of the last Supreme Luminaries. Meanwhile, his sister, Anael Supremium, a transmigrator as feared as both him and their mother, weaves intrigues capable of redefining the balance between worlds. At his side stands only Kaelan – a cunning half-breed with a unique system that transforms emotions into resources for cultivation – who seems to understand him. Partner? Perhaps. A problem? Certainly. While Kaelan manipulates enemies with charm and chaos, Nael faces even greater threats: the Donor’s Physique attracts ravenous goddesses and desperate deities, his sister plays chess with souls, and the NTRers emerge like shadows daring to disrupt his path. What awaits Nael? Intense battles in which he unleashes fragments of his power, risking the destruction of everything around him; Ancestral secrets about his Nephilim lineage and the massacre that scarred him; Fragile alliances with beings who seek to use him—including the Ruler of Space-Time, who did not abandon him out of love? Or was it? Kaelan, transforming emotions into resources and unable to resist any enticing miniskirt, while Nael wonders why he still breathes; And the NTRers, who will learn, in the worst possible way, that some limits can never be crossed. Nael does not seek to be a hero or a tyrant. He fights to avoid becoming the monster he once was, but when pushed, he will show that even the devil himself may seem like an angel compared to him. The Rise Of The Absolute is a saga where power and redemption collide, and every choice Nael makes is a step between the salvation of the cosmos and his own damnation. "Do you want a god? A villain? A myth? A Supremium? Be careful what you wish for." — Nael Supremium, before reducing the Abyss of Eternal Tears to dust.
