Aurelius Veyr was once the Grand Prime Minister and highest ranking mage of a massive empire. His crime was forbidden creation magic. He tried to create artificial soldiers from fallen humans and monsters, believing his research could reduce the number of soldiers dying in endless wars.
The empire called him a heretic.
At his execution, Aurelius did not beg.
He only said, "If I am given another life, I will do it again."
When he opened his eyes again, he had awakened as Kael Veyr, a betrayed boy who died at the center of the Devil's Forest, the most feared forbidden land in the world.
Beneath the ancient Devil's Core Tree, Kael awakened the Primordial Creation System.
With it, he could absorb abilities from anything he killed, merge them into stronger powers, create loyal subordinates, evolve them, and grant them abilities.
Then Kael ate the legendary Devil's Fruit.
His bloodline changed.
His creation power multiplied by one hundred.
Now, every monster he created could evolve into something mythic.
A shadow beast could become a king of assassins.
A corpse could become a ruler of undead.
A flame monster could become a demon warlord.
A golem could become a titan.
A sword spirit could become a blade sovereign.
A crystal creature could become an arcane queen.
A beast that bent gravity could become a ruler of laws.
From the heart of the Devil's Forest, Kael begins creating his seven mythic generals and building the Abyssal Dominion, an empire made from the very monsters the world fears.
The kingdoms want the forest's resources.
The empires want its secrets.
The races want its land.
But the forest now has a ruler.
And the boy they abandoned has become the Devil Sovereign.
