What the title says and I can't put it in my Rainbow Quest aus because I forgot this series existed when I created that book. :<

**The Quiet Reign** In a country suffocated by corruption, mining mafias, and hereditary power, a son of the nation's most respected official is born-a clean leader who stands alone amidst a rotten system. Many believe his birth heralds new hope for the nation's future. But the world that awaits him is far darker than imagined. As an adult, he chooses a different path from his father. He grows up to become an elite hacker and military strategist who operates in the shadows-penetrating the country's security systems, manipulating the flow of information, and controlling public opinion without ever being seen. When military conflict erupts and political turmoil shakes the nation, he discovers that war is fought not only on the battlefield, but also in the digital world and the halls of power. Information becomes a weapon, technology becomes a tool of domination, and truth can be shaped by those who control data. Behind war and crisis, he uncovers a dark web connecting officials, generals, and international syndicates: arms trafficking, human trafficking, drug trafficking, and conspiracies that control the direction of the country. To destroy this system, the only way is to delve deeper. Amidst war, betrayal, and the collapse of trust, he must choose between ambition and conscience-between protecting his family or seizing power for the future of the nation. Because when wars are no longer won solely by bullets, but also by information and strategy, a single decision can determine the fate of a nation. Will he be the savior who destroys the corrupt system... or a new ruler born from his own shadow? THIS NOVEL IS AN ENTIRE WORK OF FICTION WRITTEN BY BENZAMIN PUTIN.

In a world where goodness is defined by order and cruelty is justified as necessity, children are chosen as vessels-bodies meant to carry power, blame, and responsibility for a system that refuses to name itself guilty. Aven is thirteen when he is sent on his first mission, labeled special and entrusted with a role he does not yet understand. As he follows orders, he begins to notice what others cannot: the silence where people once lived, the stench of death no one else smells, and the weight of a sword that grows heavier not with blood, but with guilt.
