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

Marcius let his gaze wander through the chamber he had just broken into. There were a few guards inside, all of them cultivators. He had wondered where had all of those with spirit energy gone, as all of the defenders outside of this tower were regular troops without cultivation.

Turned out, that the Order of Purple Sun had decided to concentrate all of its elites inside the last building they had to defend.

None of them were elders of the great elder of the order though. However, the stronger auras and energy signatures could be detected above the ground floor.

The interesting thing was, that all of the cultivators on the ground floor were equipped with the best of the best armor the order had to offer as well as some of the more powerful spirit weapons. It seemed like the Order of Purple Sun saw no point in holding their treasures and resources back when the very destruction of their order was on the line.
