{Check out my new novel, Misunderstood Villain: Heroines Mourn My Death}

'Born In Ruins' was a forgettable read.

That was the only way Emir could describe the pages of the novel he had found himself reincarnated into.

The young man barely knew anything, but the snippets he had recalled only caused him unending sorrow...

As what awaited him was only tragedy and an early death.

It was a depressing story, one that he had planned to flip on its head—all for his salvation.

—

In this post-apocalyptic world, monsters fought humans and cyborgs in a battle for survival on a scale greater than ever before.

A world where innocence and death were a luxury, where the line between heroes and villains was razor-thin.

Within its expanse, 'Ancient Clans,' 'Galactic Federations,' 'Factions', and 'Corporations' presided over colossal 'Ruins' that dwarfed the concept of life itself.

Survivors of the 'Third World War' continuously dove into the 'Old World,' 'Hunting' for 'Relics' in any ruin that they could find on Earth, desperate to reclaim 'Lost' technology, to stand a fighting chance against the inevitable. 

But it appeared that 'Earthkind' had met their match.

…However, Emir would never allow that fate to take its course.

Emir unraveled layers of the tale and realized the truth of the world.

He acquainted himself with the rules of this game before it fully consumed him.

And now... no longer content with mere survival, he sought to dominate over the very fabric of this unforgiving universe.

Emir shall rise from the pawn he once was, seeking to unravel the mysteries that hounded him. 
 
The boundaries of 'Aether,' his father’s disappearance, the noose hanging above his family’s head, and of course… his starless destiny, a fate he longed to control.

This pursuit would earn him the epithet: 

"Prince Of The Fallen."

OLD-WORLD EXTRA

Novel Ended!

Sofia had unsurprisingly achieved a similar result to Elijah:

Grade B for the first machine, Grade B for the second, and Grade C for the third.

Again, it was no surprise that she scored higher than Elijah on the second machine since her Aether Purity was naturally higher, having taken cultivation seriously from a much younger age.

However, her mental fortitude wasn't close to Elijah's, as she barely survived a second in Grade B.

Despite that, Sofia still looked at Emir with a prideful expression, hoping for praise.

What she got instead was him simply sending her back to her seat, with Aria giving her a hand.

Once situated, Aria went; after her was Max, followed by Arthur, and then the brothers' assistants, Junior and Quinn.

There were a few surprises here and there, but overall, their performances were within expectations.

The 'unnamed' were up next, and they didn't deliver at all.
