SlightlySane

Octavius, misled by friends, embarks on a quest to clear his father's name, ultimately facing a tragic end with his sister. Their journey results in devastating loss, leaving him powerless and yearning for revenge against those who harmed his family.

Spirits, known as the Fates, offer him a chance to reincarnate, but he refuses, averting an isekai fate. Instead, he discovers that his old body now hosts the 4th Fate, a being discarded and betrayed by his own kin. This ancient deity seeks revenge against those who wronged him. Octavius, fueled by his own desire for retribution, decides to coexist with the entity. He believed in the saying- to defeat a monster, you have to be twice as monstrous.

This unholy alliance crosses the shadowy path of revenge, their identities blurring, secrets unraveling, and the line between savior and monster fading. 

This is a tale of darkness and redemption, where justice is a blade, and revenge is the only way forward.
