Shadow was an assassin with no family, no friends, and no purpose beyond the missions assigned to him. Kidnapped at the age of five and forced to serve a ruthless assassin organization for fifty long years, his life was a series of shadows and bloodshed. On the eve of his fifty-fifth birthday, he completed his final mission with hope in his heart. A hope that freedom and a better life were finally within reach.

But that hope was shattered. Betrayed by the very organization he had devoted his life to, Shadow was ruthlessly killed, his decades of loyalty repaid with treachery. As his life slipped away, he swore one thing.

"If he had a second chance, he would live life on his terms, unshackled and free".

In the void between life and death, Shadow's soul was met by "Syl". The enigmatic Shadow Monarch's System. Syl offered him what he craved most. Another chance at life, but in a world far different from his own. Without hesitation, Shadow accepted, eager to grasp the life he was denied.

Reborn into a realm of gods, magic, and chaos, Shadow soon learns the truth.

He is a Wild Card, a pawn in the gods’ celestial game. Amere source of entertainment for their whims. But Shadow is no ordinary human. With the sarcastic and unpredictable Syl by his side, a glitching system that grants him powers beyond imagination, he embarks on a journey to defy the gods and forge his destiny.

My Shadow Monarch's System

"Here you go", Ben handed out two silver ornaments to Shadow and Liora. Shadow looked at the ornament, it had three silver swords all crossed against each other like an asterisk.

He held it up in the light, "But we're just starting" Shadow looked at Ben, expecting an answer. The big man shook his head slightly.

"You deserve it!" He sighed, finding a chair to sit down. "The mission you accomplished wasn't something that two bronze adventurers could handle, I doubt even two silver Adventurers could defeat Scar and bring back his head for all to see".

Shadow nodded understanding the situation. He looked to his side, Liora seemed content enough with her new ornaments. Her's were exactly the same as his, with a rope attached to it so it could be worn on the neck.

"Also" Ben said pointing his hands at Shadow. " I'm sure you know how divided the kingdom is. Mere citizens aren't allowed to reach places that adventurers can, so always wear your silver blades..."
