There were two souls.

One was assiduous with an unyielding will. One was effortlessly cunning with wisdom beyond many.

And now, they are one. The universe will pray.

Marcius Aemilia was killed during a duel because his opponent cheated by using a vicious poison.

Fortunately, he was resurrected by an outer god with an agenda.

Agreeing to be the god's agent within his homeland, Marcius was now back with a vengeance and dedication to save his family and clan from their unjustified demise.

But wait. He was not alone.

Along with Marcius, came the soul of Joseph Redwoods, who had read all the future events of Marcius's world from the pages of a novel.

So, what do you get when you combine the souls of a vengeful heir and a cunning geek?

Chaos, mayhem, disaster and good old ass-kicking.

The Revenant King of Rubrum

Currently, Marcius was in an open field with his trusted sentient sword in his hand. Marcius breathed in and out in a regular manner as he tried to keep his body, even the heart-rate, stable.


A spark of light blue lightning spewed out from his right hand and slowly traveled toward the sword, coating it completely. Then, he took a stance with the sword pointed forward over his head.


"One Sword to Cut Hundreds, Overflow." The heir of the Aemilia clan's voice echoed within the empty clearing.


Then, in an instant, Marcius lashed out with his sword, cutting through the air in front of him in exactly a hundred swings within seconds. Energy blades made from pure lightning were produced from his technique as they raced forward, hitting the stone pillars erected in a distance for this exact purpose, and cutting through them like the pillars were made of tofu.
