Underworld Lucian X Oc

The Icy Crown of the Underworld

Jayden Bastille, in his third year of college, had lived a seemingly peaceful life — until tragedy struck. His world shattered when his only sister, Uriana, was murdered after going missing following a meeting with her boyfriend. Consumed by rage, Jayden confronted the boyfriend, only to find him dead. When the police investigated, they ruled the death as a suicide following a homicide. However, Jayden, despite not being an expert in the matter, knew the wounds on his sister and her boyfriend were far from a simple murder-suicide. Sensing something was wrong, Jayden refused to accept the police’s conclusion. He was adamant there was more to the case, but his claims were dismissed, and the investigation was closed. Still, Jayden couldn’t shake the feeling that there was a deeper conspiracy. His determination to uncover the truth led him down a dangerous path, one from which there was no return. The more he uncovered, the further he spiraled into a dark, unfamiliar world — one where his morals were upended, and his once-colorful life turned to shadows. The vengeance and hatred that consumed him fueled his relentless pursuit of destroying the rotten core of this world. As Jayden embarked on his mission to annihilate the forces behind his sister's death, he began to realize how far-reaching the culprits power truly was. Was it even possible for him to succeed, with his limited strength and the unpredictable challenges ahead? The road to revenge would not be easy, and his strength alone might not be enough to bring about the justice he so desperately sought.

Cygnus X-1

Growth of civilization has been augmented continuously by the colossal presence of technology. A hundred years ago, earth suffered devastating calamities and humans weren’t able to survive in it anymore. Humanity almost perished but a few skilled technologists came together to weave seven space stations that were capable of housing thousands, albeit a few. The space stations banded together to form a single massive station named “The Sanctuary”, where about 7,000 people lived. Resources were scarce and all crimes no matter their severity were punishable by death, unless the transgressor was under 18 years of age. After the Sanctuary’s life support systems were found to be deteriorating, 202 skilled military personnel were dispatched to one of the the nearest planets, a promising candidate for supporting life. The main mission of the military personnel was to scout a planet for a few strange creatures that were capable of resisting radiation and thriving in unfavorable conditions. Humanity had never forgotten to reclaim its lost home, hence various projects were launched yearly with the sole aim of finding a solution to earth’s biggest problem— extremely high level radiation. Project Helix was finally supported by the Assembly although it raised ethical concerns. The project focused on introducing animal genes into humans, with the belief that humans would be able to survive the harsh conditions of earth. Many problems were considered before the Assembly finally gave their support. Would the genes from these animals be compatible with the human genome? Would they be able to integrate into human cells and function as intended? How would the genes be edited and regulated to ensure they don’t disrupt other essential human genes or processes? Could introducing these genes have unintended consequences, such as altering human physiology, behavior, or cognitive abilities? Would the introduction of animal genes into humans raise ethical concerns, such as the potential for unforeseen side effects or the blurring of lines between species? Each one of these problems was enough to dissuade the upper echelons of the Assembly but the deteriorating life support systems was a major concern hence humanity decided to take a big risk, or perhaps a leap of faith. Let’s delve deep into this story so as to enjoy the alluring taste it has to offer, as Miguel Morien creates a new path for humanity, a path along which humans are able to fuse with the genes of beasts, thereby bringing out their lethality and battle prowess, further dazzling the entirety of the world with it.
