Armed with nothing but sheer will and a makeshift weapon, he embarks on a journey riddled with danger, where even the weakest creatures could end his life.

Asvorn’s journey has begun, and with it, the first embers of a fire long thought dead.

In a world ruled by martial clans and ancient sects, Izuku Arashi was the pillar that held Murim together—the undefeated sword, the last shield against annihilation, the warrior who fought for twenty years to halt the apocalypse. On the eve of his greatest victory against the Demon King, he should have been celebrated as a hero. Instead, his allies, disciples, and even his own family turned their blades on him. They called him a threat to balance, a power that could no longer be controlled. The heavens agreed. Stripped of his strength. Erased from existence. But death was not his end. The heavens, in their divine judgment, cast him into another world—one ruled not by martial might, but by magic, noble bloodlines, and an unyielding hierarchy. A world where strength is inherited, not earned. Izuku awakens in the body of a dying orphan in the filth-ridden slums, weakened, cursed, and bound by a cruel system that cripples his growth. No Qi. A growth rate reduced by 90%. Pain amplified by 300%. In this world, he is nothing. But Izuku Arashi does not kneel. If the heavens wish to bury him, he will claw his way back up. From the gutters to the golden halls of a magic academy. From a forsaken nobody to a legend feared by kings and gods alike. And this time… he will not be betrayed. A tale of betrayal, rebirth, and ruthless determination. Where the strongest isn’t the one born with power—but the one who earns it, through blood, sweat, and suffering.

Grind, fire, survival—will Torv and Lysa outrun the curse, or burn in it?
