"She was a criminal, but her heart was set on a king."
Life has not been kind to Kimura Asaki. Born in poverty near the outskirts of the war-torn Miyazaki empire, she watched the one life she's ever known be ripped away from her. But when the notorious Tokugawa clan extended its shadowy hands toward her with a promise to give her everything she never had, the young Asaki had found herself deep within the heart of the crime syndicate.
Now as the Tokugawa clan's most prolific assassin, Asaki may have finally met her match when she is given her biggest assignment yet: the assassination of the faceless Phantom King.

Phantom Genesis (幻創)
Phantom Genesis (幻創) In a world where supernatural warriors are born with unique bloodline abilities, strength is dictated by one's Blood Flow (血流, Ketsuryū)-a force that determines their limits and potential. Nations are divided, tribes are extinct, and the corrupt government rules with an iron grip, hunting down those who threaten their power. Kaito Tsukihana, the last survivor of the Tsukihana Clan (月華, "Moonflower"), was born into a legacy of assassins feared for their ability to warp perception and manipulate speed. But seven years ago, his clan was massacred by the government's elite enforcers, The Sentinels. Now a cocky and reckless fighter, Kaito carves his own path as a lone assassin-until one mission changes everything. A bounty is placed on his head, setting off a relentless hunt. But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes: his assassination target wasn't what he thought. The government's corruption runs deeper than he imagined. And his past? It's not as buried as he believed. Haunted by revenge-seekers, elite bounty hunters, and enemies with grudges against his fallen clan, Kaito must fight, adapt, and evolve, unlocking deadly new transformations with every battle. Alongside Juro, a weary healer with a forgotten past, and Raika, a fierce warrior fueled by rage, Kaito is thrust into a war far bigger than himself. This isn't just about survival. This isn't just about revenge. This is about breaking the cycle of destruction. But to do that, Kaito must become stronger than ever before.
