The Delay of Ragnarok

"Reborn as the forgotten son of a fading house, Abel must endure scorn, survive the storms, and uncover the truth of a broken world."

Announcement:
This is the official rewritten release of my earlier draft. I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad
under the same username rubbersocket(Nengev)

I wasn't satisfied with the old version, so I've rebuilt the foundation, expanded the worldbuilding, and fixed the plot holes. This edition is the one I'll be continuing.

Description:
Betrayed in his first life, he awakens in another reborn as Abel von Échestel, the eighth son of a declining noble family in the Kaishi Kingdom. Unwanted and cast aside, Abel struggles to survive in a land where nations prepare for war, and ancient weapons, the Colossi hold the balance of power. His only advantage is a mysterious Search Engine, a strange ability that reveals fragments of knowledge long forgotten. But knowledge alone does not guarantee survival. Between family scorn, whispers of invasion, and storms that guard a cursed island, Abel's new life begins in a world where every choice carries weight.
