Claudius Remus is born into a world that rejects him. Abused, hated, and eventually murdered, his soul drifts into the Void-where something ancient offers him a second chance. Granted powerful necromancer abilities and cursed insight into the Monarchs who rule the world, Claudius returns, but with the alias 'Cloud' bestowed upon him by a mysterious voice that led him to his path to virtue. But his resurrection isn't a gift-it's a challenge. He chooses to protect humanity not out of love, but defiance. Cloud begins building his own path through necromancy, confronting the shadows of his past while forming bonds with those who will soon follow him into fire: Niro, Kyera, and later, Celestine. Meanwhile, the Monarchs grow restless. Ashborn, the Shadow Monarch, recognizes Cloud-and reveals a devastating truth: Cloud is his son, a hybrid of divine and mortal blood.

"You can get anything you want, as long as you can pay the price..." A tempting offer suddenly appeared out of the blue on a Billboard.

Perhaps a number from Hell, and whenever Myan calls this number, anything he wishes will come true, but with the cost of his memories. Will Myan use this newfound powers of the Devil for good? Or for bad?
