Percy was born with little hope of standing out—just another face in a world ruled by bloodlines and class. Starting with the lowest Red core and mocked as a waste, Percy was always overlooked by his peers and scorned by the powerful. But when his bloodline awakens with the power to send clones across worlds, he seizes the chance to shatter expectations.

Percy never wanted fame. A cast-off noble who dreams of nothing more than than cleansing his cores, he thought his alchemical breakthrough—Aurora Dew—would cover his needs and let him grow stronger. But when the Divine Order demands his secret on pain of death, Percy makes a single, fateful choice: he runs.

Percy has finally fought his way free from his family's province, seizing a cache of elixirs and putting his next promotion within reach. That is, if he can get a chance to cleanse his cores while evading practically the entire population of the planet. What he needs more than anything else is time to advance and hone his magic. But a calm environment to work on himself is the one resource he doesn't have. The gods are after his knowledge, the nobles seek revenge, and a twisted Holy Child seems to be enjoying the chase way too much.

Chains shattered. A Holy Child slain. The whole world wants his head. Percy committed the unthinkable—he killed the Holy Child, a sadistic noble who enslaved his best friend. Branded a heretic and a monster, he’s now the target of every bounty hunter, zealot, and power-hungry mage looking to claim his life for glory. Armed with a powerful bloodline, a brand-new blessing, an evolving familiar, and the ancient wisdom of Zoris—a fallen god bound to a cursed ring—Percy must carve his way through Remior’s strongest champions.

He broke his hunter. He saved his family. Now his soul is the battlefield. Percy has done the impossible, creating a heaven-shaking spell unlike anything Remior has ever seen. His narrow victory freed his grandfather from a cruel enemy’s grasp, but power always demands payment: in this case, his mind, body, and spirit. Buried beneath the Fungal Spire with Micky, Percy wakes to tangled thoughts, shattered memories, at the mercy of a colossal wasp looming over them both.

A grand tournament awaits. A prize coveted by all. Percy intends to claim it. Percy has finally earned the recognition he always deserved, his name echoing across the planet as one of humanity's rising powers. Unfortunately, not everyone is willing to accept the world he is helping create...
