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.

Nathenial looked down at the foe in front of him with a relaxed stare. By now, it was a foregone conclusion that elder Fennel of the Order of Purple Sun was done and dealt with.

It was due to the scene in front of him. The runemaster observed Fennel who was lying on the base of the wall. After falling for Nathenial's trick, Fennel was no longer capable of using his spirit energy to stay afloat and fell.

But even from a distance, Nathenial could still see that Fennel's body had been destroyed beyond recognition. There were literal holes in his body, and the left part of his body starting from the shoulder was missing. The same was also true for his right leg. There was nothing below the knee.

Nathenial's eyebrows rose when seeing a hint of movement from Fennel. The masked cultivator started twitching his right arm as if trying to move. But it was a futile effort seeing the blood gushing out from the six huge wounds on his body.
