Magic corrupts over time and the Starborn, creatures created by the magic of the Lord of the Stars, are the only ones that can cleanse it. A terrible tragedy ensured that Ash is the last Starborn left breathing and it now stops the gods from interfering in the world that they govern. A new god, an upstart that is only part of their pantheon in a singular world, offers a deal that none of them can refuse. He will create a connection between the world they can no longer touch and another. In exchange, he will join them in full, part of their number in all worlds they govern. The gods have no other choice. Some of them seek a way to save the world that will die without the Starborn. Some of them seek the loving connections they lost when they were forced away from the world. One of them seeks more power, the chance to build something new. Perhaps the world the Starborn kept from ruin will be saved or perhaps it will fall. Either way, there's entertainment to be had.

After the judgment, the ire of God was revealed with the words: "Be cast unto eternal damnation!" And so it was that humans and jinns alike found themselves scattered across the Nine Circles of Hell, left to burn and suffer for eternity.

A massive, otherworldly spire reaching into the heavens, the tower beckoned humanity with promises of power, wealth, and immortality—but also death. Unlike the others, Eren was forcibly bound to the Tower. No one else could enter until he began his climb, and he couldn’t leave unless he reached the top. Stripped of magic, aura, or any supernatural ability, Eren’s only advantage is his engineering genius and the technology he can smuggle in. From basic firearms to drones and exoskeletons, he uses every tool at his disposal to survive the monsters, traps, and bizarre ecosystems within the Tower. Yet even technology has its limits in a world governed by magic. As Eren climbs, he discovers the Tower isn’t just a trial but a puzzle. Its magic isn’t arbitrary—it’s systematic, a science he slowly learns to decode. However, one wrong calculation could kill him instantly, forcing him to balance experimentation with survival. He scavenges magic crystals, artifacts, and spell books, using them in crude, improvised ways to bolster his arsenal. Over time, he begins merging technology and magic, creating unique hybrid tools to overcome the increasingly insurmountable challenges. But why was Eren chosen? What secret does the Tower hold? With no escape and the weight of humanity’s fate on his shoulders, Eren must climb—not just to survive, but to unravel the truth of the Tower itself. every 50 collections I’ll give a chapter and every 20 powerstones I’ll give a chapter every 10 reviews I’ll give a chapter
