Devouring The Heavens

The world is governed by the System, an omnipotent force that dictates reality, bestowing power upon chosen individuals, granting them Classes, Paths, and Skills to combat the monstrous horrors that emerge from the Rifts. Hunters-humanity's champions-rise through the ranks, seeking glory, wealth, and dominion. But what happens when the System itself rejects you? Ronan Kessler, an orphan from the slums of Ashenford, had only one dream-to Awaken and become a Hunter, to rise above the filth and carve his name into history. But when his Awakening fails and the System deems him worthless, he is cast aside, doomed to a life of insignificance. Yet, as he stands on the precipice of despair, something else calls to him. A voice from the abyss, a force older than the System itself. It offers him a choice: remain nothing, or embrace the forbidden. Marked by the Devourer's Curse, Ronan is no longer bound by the System's laws. He does not level up. He does not gain normal skills. Instead, he devours his enemies, assimilating their essence, evolving into something beyond human. But power comes at a price. The world fears him. Hunters seek to destroy him. And deep within the void, something watches, waiting for the day he opens the Forbidden Gate. With the world against him and an eldritch hunger clawing at his soul, Ronan must decide: Will he defy fate and forge his own path? Or will he succumb to the abyss and become the very monster the world fears?

The story follows a heart-wrenching encounter between the protagonist and her former lover, Travis, a man she once adored but who now appears unrecognizable. Set in a hospital run by the most notorious mafia, the protagonist confronts the reality of betrayal, unrequited love, and her broken life. Travis, once her gentle "pretty boy," is now transformed into Lord Morgan Travis, a sinister and emotionless mafia leader devoted to Violet, his wife. The protagonist struggles to reconcile this cold, menacing man with the kind, artistic friend she had loved deeply. As she processes the betrayal, she realizes their relationship was a façade—Travis never truly loved her, and she was just a pawn in a larger scheme involving her brother and the dangerous mafia world. Amidst her anguish, the protagonist admits a dark secret: she ordered an execution attempt on Violet. This revelation shatters any lingering connection between her and Travis, who reacts with fury. However, chaos erupts as Violet’s life hangs by a thread, her condition worsening due to insufficient medical resources. Realizing her place in Travis’ world was never genuine, the protagonist chooses to leave, running back to Julian, the man she ultimately sees as her true anchor despite their flawed relationship. The story ends on a note of despair and self-realization as the protagonist mourns her lost innocence and fractured self, seeking solace in the only semblance of stability she has left.
