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.

Although the Eternal Flames Phoenix was hurt by Maricus's technique, it was just going to be a temporary thing. Even before long, Marcius could already see the effect his lightning inflicted upon the body of the phoenix closing as seconds passed.

It was the insane regenerative capacity of the Eternal Flames Phoenix, Azot had mentioned before. If the rate of recovery was this quick for the spirit beast in her weakened state, Marcius dreaded to imagine just how powerful Ashuran might have been when she was in her prime.

'Brat! Dodge!' Azot shouted in his mind as he sounded alert and urgent.

Marcius's danger senses flared up as he had to quickly dodge out of the way. The position he was floating in, just moments before, immediately caught on fire as the air itself seemed to burn with the bright orange flames.
