Fate's Cage: Greed and Grief

Magic reigns supreme in the world, serving as the universal currency and granting extraordinary abilities. But not everyone is born equal: an individual's mana level is determined at birth and the only way to improve is to steal the talents of others.

Hiko Yoshihara was born with nearly no mana and aims to become the strongest. So when he came of age, he entered the Crimmtle battle Casino, risking everything he has for a chance at a better life. Whether the life he knows burns before his eyes or he carves a path to greatness, is up to a roll of the dice.

Note: The work is currently still being written. The goal is for 24 total chapters (excluding the prelude) to come out weekly (or in less time).
