There has ever been one Emperor of the Eternal Skies and after his disappearance, the Empire fell back into its days of warring, and no one dared to call themselves by that name! 

But Atrox Soryu dreamed of uniting the Empire as the rising star of his Clan. He had the charm and the potential but then it was discovered that he carried the Forbidden Mark Order.

A power that was feared and loathed. In an instant his world was turned upside down, his friends turned their backs on him and his father disowned him, calling him the shame of the Clan. 

He was sent to the borderland where monsters crawled from Rifts to conquer the world. It was here that he would know the terrible secret of the Forbidden Mark Order he carried and the inheritance that comes with it. 

He wanted to build an Empire and he would start from the borderland he was sent to, right from the labor camp.

Building An Empire Starting From The Labor Camp In Exile

A portal opened beneath him, and he vanished.

Immediately, the ground groaned and shook as doors connecting the room to the tunnels opened. But nobody rushed to enter the tunnels. It was as if, by some unspoken rule, everyone was waiting for something to happen in the room where they were all gathered.

Atrox stood and stretched. His body was back to its normal state, and two days of filling his core had restored it to half capacity. 'I really need to do something about this... There should be an artifact that makes me fill my core quicker'

He began making his way toward one of the tunnels when he suddenly paused and turned. "Wait, if I kill everyone here, does that mean I win automatically?"

Every single eye in the room turned toward him. The mood shifted instantly. Essence pressure surged, making the air heavy. Those who were not of the Knight rank gripped their heads and swayed.

Will I kill everyone?
