Death should have been the end.
But for Kane Forrest, it was only the beginning.
Torn from the grave and cast into the Atoria Continent—an ancient, war-ravaged land adrift in the endless Cosmic Sea—Kane awakens not as a hero, but as a curse.
Bound in flesh not his own, he finds himself reborn as a Cave Goblin—vermin of the dark, hated more than the Demon Lords who once bathed kingdoms in fire. The air reeks of blood. Magic corrodes the land. And every path is carved with cruelty.
Refusing to bow to the world’s twisted design, Kane clawed, lied, and betrayed his way toward freedom. But his deception shattered the threads of fate—and now he pays the price with his very soul.
Yet even in this monstrous body, a power stirs.
A system, ancient and cruel, latches onto him—a tool, a curse, a weapon. With it, he will defy the gods, command the despised, and climb from the festering dark toward something greater than kingship: dominion.
The world hates him. The abyss welcomes him. And Kane will rise from both.
