Once a legendary hero known as the Black Flame Vanguard, Liam Blackwood was a sovereign who defied the world's most powerful and tyrannical sect. In a final, cataclysmic battle, he sacrificed everything to save his beloved companions, Isadora and Lysandra, and was presumed dead by the world. But his story did not end there. He awakens, his power shattered, in a hidden, primordial sanctuary with his two companions. His dormant, god-tier bloodline has been forcibly activated, granting him the unique Blackwood Harem System—a power that links his own recovery and growth to the strength and expansion of his family. After twelve years of peaceful seclusion, during which he marries his wives and raises a new generation of prodigy children, their idyllic sanctuary is discovered by a ruthless, high-tech syndicate from beyond their world. Forced to defend their home, the Blackwood family uncovers the sanctuary's ancient secrets and, through a desperate war, solidifies their role as its new Guardians. To truly protect his home, Liam must return to the world that betrayed him on a solitary quest for a legendary artifact. He finds the kingdom of Eldoria on the brink of collapse, plagued by a failing war and a deep-seated conspiracy orchestrated by a treacherous Duke and his mysterious, soul-devouring masters. Forced to wage a two-front war—a public one on the battlefield and a secret one in the shadows—Liam must forge new, dangerous alliances. He joins forces with the kingdom's most loyal commander and, in a shocking reunion, with the very princess he saved in his youth. Now, having won a war, dismantled a spy network, and secured a royal marriage, he stands as the kingdom's last hope. But the cornered serpent has made its final move, summoning a dark, otherworldly power that descends upon the capital, threatening to consume everything and everyone Liam has fought to protect.
