"You sure?"
"Hundred percent."
"But how are they involved?"
"It's because it originated from their city."
"Originated from what?"
"How am I supposed to know?"
"You said it's originated from their city. You don't know what it's originated from?"
Suddenly a gust of wind flew at us from nowhere. I clutched the gun strapped to my belt.
"Identity." A voice called from ahead. But it wasn't easy to see who it was due to sands flowing into our eyes.
"Asterios." Ari called out.
The storm stopped. It looked as if nothing happened.
A person immerged.
"Who are you?" She asked.
The town of Aramore was cursed the moment it saw Asterios. Although the power of the last enchantrees was used to seal off Asterios, greed took over humanity again. This time it brought darkness to the whole world.

Soulbound Chronicles: Book III Eclipse of Arcadia
The Arcadia Cluster stands on the edge of annihilation. The Guild Nations lie in ruins, the Black Spire Order has unleashed the Eclipse Engine, and the heavens themselves are tearing apart. Across shattered worlds and dying stars, Rai Zenth faces the ultimate truth of his existence - he is not merely a weapon of rebellion, but the last living shard of a Monster Lord whose soul was never meant to awaken. As the RAVE Cores converge, the boundary between man and monster collapses. The power of creation itself spirals out of control, and every soul that has ever burned within Arcadia resonates in one final, catastrophic chord. Bound by fate and love, Mirai Kessandra, Dart Velden, Suki Shiranami, and Ashren Vox join Rai for a final stand - to decide whether the universe will be reborn or erased forever. But salvation demands sacrifice. And when the Eclipse Gear reaches its final form, Rai must choose: to ascend as the new god of a fractured cosmos, or to shatter his own soul and free every bound being from magic's chains. As galaxies burn and souls echo through eternity, the truth of Arcadia will finally be written - not in stars, but in the hearts of those who dared to defy destiny. The end begins where it all began. And only the soul that breaks can truly be free.Complete
One Sin
Nobody knows his real name. The world knows him only as Asra - and the world is afraid. In a Republic built not on crowns but on money, fear, and seven unseen families who own everything from the armies to the gods, Asra is the thing they never planned for: someone with nothing left to lose. For generations, Aurevia has lived in the shadow of their greed - its mines stripped, its people silenced, its crown reduced to a puppet's ornament. The world calls it peace. Those who remember call it slavery with better manners. Now Asra is dismantling it all. Piece by piece. Leaking secrets, igniting markets, turning the power of the seven against themselves. The world calls him a terrorist. But those who've lost everything see him as something else entirely: a reckoning long overdue. Far from the eyes of governments and kings - in lecture halls and back alleys, in midnight boardrooms and burning cities - a war is being rewritten. Not for freedom. For vengeance. Because in a world built on sin, it only takes one to bring it all down.![[Volume 2: Ein Sinclair] The Clueless Prince](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/396645279-256-k700594.jpg)
[Volume 2: Ein Sinclair] The Clueless Prince
***SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T COMPLETED VOLUME 1!!!*** The veiled woman gently stroked the magic ball and peered at it. I couldn't see anything on its cloudy surface and nervously waited for her to speak. "Ah I see it... there's conflict, a passionate kiss, and a deadly battle hard fought in the near future." I nearly shot up from the seat in the fortune telling booth with excitement. "Seriously? Wow, Ophelia sure has her work cut out for her." The fortune teller paused before raising an eyebrow underneath her thin veil. "This is your future." "...Pardon?" -- The future has never looked dimmer but at least I didn't have to worry about being stabbed to death anytime soon. Trying to adjust to my new everyday life, I'm thrust into a situation where I'm given a rank far above my capabilities. Now forced into the spotlight and gaining the attention of the flirty Third Ranker, and the sadistically dangerous First Ranker; I'm exhausted before the second year's even truly begun. With a new term, new dangers and secrets emerge. And trying to stay uninvolved while being a cheerleader for the heroine continues to backfire. Well... at least I've got a nice place all to myself. As if to mock me, the doorbell rings and my face darkens. Unfortunately, it came with having to deal with troublesome characters who couldn't leave me alone. Hey, I already clocked out!
