In a world where power is dictated by gangs, cities, and families ranked from Tier 1 to Tier 6, only the strongest survive. In the Tier 4 city of Blackridge, fifteen-year-old Elijah struggles to find his place. With his mother working tirelessly and his younger sister depending on him, he has always kept his head down.

Determined to rise above the chaos, Elijah and his best friend Kai decide to create their own gang from nothing. But strength in this world isn’t given—it’s taken. The gangs that rule Blackridge won’t tolerate competition, and even the weakest gang has more resources, manpower, and experience than they do. With no money, no reputation, and no clear allies, they must navigate a brutal world of betrayals, violence, and ambition, where every decision could mean life or death.

But Elijah is different. He possesses a mysterious system that offers him power—at a cost. As he slowly uncovers its secrets, he realizes that survival is not enough. To protect those he loves, he must become stronger than anyone else. He must climb the ranks, crush the opposition, and seize control of Blackridge’s underworld.

But in a world ruled by kings, warlords, and ancient families, the price of power is steep. And when the past comes back to haunt him—when whispers of a forgotten night resurface—Elijah must confront not only his enemies but the truth about himself.

In the gang world, the strong rise, the weak perish, and only the ruthless reign supreme.

And Elijah? He plans to reign at the very top

The Path Of A True King.

The pain had vanished, the wounds erased—but the sensation of Dark Ki still surged through his veins.

It pulsed like a second heartbeat colder than ice, yet strangely empowering.

He stood in silence, breath steady, eyes slowly adjusting to the aftermath.

Blood painted the earth in crimson streaks.

Severed limbs lay strewn across the clearing.

The once-feral enemy was now nothing more than scattered scraps of flesh and bone.

Kai snorted not in mockery, but at the absurdity of it all.

He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out his phone.

In the distance, the dying echo of a gunshot rumbled like thunder across the night.

The Endless Forest stretched in all directions, its silence eerie, almost sacred.

A Friend Is Gone.
