“Come not between the Dragon and his Wrath.” — William Shakespeare The year was 2140, and Earth was nothing but a distant memory. Humanity now drifted through the galaxies aboard colossal ARKs, massive skyships that served as the last bastions of civilization. Yet, these ARKs were more than just floating cities; they were humanity’s last containers, preserving what remained of their species. A century before Earth's final collapse, humanity discovered a gateway to a realm known as Eternia — a fantastical world straight out of myth and legend. Reaching this realm required more than just advanced technology; it demanded a complete departure from the physical body and entry into a mysterious process known as the Dream Weave. In the present day, Cloud lived aboard ARK NO. 427, where he had been training from a young age to step into the Dream Weave. He was a standout among his peers, excelling in every tasks that came his way. Everything seemed to be on track for him — until the pivotal day of the Class Selection process.

Lein, an ordinary office worker, received the SSS-rank talent - Infinity Duplicate. There was nothing in this world that he couldn't duplicate, not even god-tier materials. The path to becoming the strongest lay before him. Yet, Lein knew all too well that it required a process. Even the gods needed a process to create the universe. The Divine Sky Realm offered a fantastical life that Earth's humans had always dreamed of. Soaring through the skies, shattering mountains, rising to the pinnacle in all endeavors. But humans remain humans, wherever they are, driven by their innate nature: greedy and unaware of their limits. Humans believed they were the sole inhabitants of the universe, thinking only they received the system's fortune. But reality proved otherwise. Other races in the universe were granted the same blessings, without distinction. In fact, the human physique was considered low-tier. Races like the Wood Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Dragons, and countless others possessed bodies that defied the heavens from the outset. Could humans survive in the Divine Sky Realm? We can only hope for the best. The humans found themselves in a realm where dreams and nightmares walked hand in hand, a place where every desire and fear took form. Floating islands became their new kingdoms, a testament to their newfound power and ambition.

In a world teetering on the edge of collapse, two unlikely souls are drawn together by fate—and the hidden powers they never knew they possessed. Leon, a quiet yet fiercely determined young man, harbors a dangerous ability: he can manipulate time itself, a gift he’s only begun to understand. After fleeing a world ravaged by a mysterious infection, he finds himself stranded on an isolated island that holds dark secrets far older—and far deadlier—than anything he could have imagined. Zara, a sharp-tongued and fiercely independent woman with the rare power of empathy, can sense the emotions and intentions of others. She’s not one to trust easily, but Leon’s quiet strength draws her in, even as they clash over what comes next in their battle for survival. Together, they must learn to balance their powers—and their undeniable connection—if they are to survive the malevolent force that controls the island. As the infection spreads, turning both people and animals into twisted versions of themselves, the duo discovers that the virus is no mere sickness—it’s a curse, awakened by ancient rituals and controlled by an intelligent, unseen force that stalks them in the shadows. To save themselves and the island, they must decipher cryptic symbols, face their deepest fears, and confront the darkness that lies within the very core of the island—and themselves. In the midst of danger, their banter becomes their anchor: “For someone with a godlike power, you sure second-guess yourself a lot.” “And for someone who can read emotions, you’re awfully good at hiding yours.” “Maybe I just don’t want to admit how much I like you.” “Good thing time’s on our side.” But as they uncover more about the island’s cursed past, their bond deepens, and the stakes become even higher. The line between love and survival blurs as Leon and Zara face choices that could tear them apart—or bring them closer than they ever imagined. Can they stop the infection before it consumes the island—and each other? Or will the forces lurking in the shadows finally claim their due? Aquis is a story of love, survival, and the power that comes with embracing the darkness within.

The world pulses with Espera, a mystical energy that transforms those strong enough to wield it into beings of unimaginable power.

His decisions will be realistic, and he’ll act rationally according to the situations he encounters. I’m still learning, so please forgive any grammatical mistakes.
