In a world where ancient powers slumber within chosen individuals, Kai Renji, an outcast in his own village, discovers that he is the host of an ancient force—the Dragon Vessel. But this is no ordinary power; it is both a gift and a curse, feared by those who understand its destructive potential.

Once bullied and ignored, Kai’s life takes a drastic turn when he is nearly killed by one of his classmates. Just as he is about to lose consciousness, a surge of violet energy erupts from within him, marking the awakening of the Vessel’s power. From that moment, his once-weak body transforms, his wounds heal instantly, and he begins to feel an overwhelming presence guiding his movements.

But this newfound strength comes at a cost. The world is divided between those who seek to control him, those who wish to eliminate him, and those who want to awaken the full potential of the Dragon Vessel—no matter the consequences. As Kai navigates through betrayal, hidden conspiracies, and a power struggle between ancient factions, he must master his abilities before they consume him entirely.

With time running out and enemies closing in, will Kai harness his power and become the master of his own fate? Or will the Dragon Vessel turn him into the very monster the world fears?

The Dragon Vessel

Kai's school days were hard. At 19, he was often teased and bullied by his classmates. Since losing his parents at 15, he had no one to care for him. Every day, he felt small and unwanted.

Today, in the school washroom, a few classmates gathered around him. Aaron, the unofficial leader of the group, snatched Kai's lunch box from his trembling hands.

"Hey, Kai! Did you forget your lunch again?" Aaron said with a sneer.

Milo, another classmate, laughed and said, "No wonder you always look so weak!"

Darian added, "Maybe you should just do everything we tell you. You are nothing without us!"

Kai's heart pounded. With a soft voice he pleaded,

One of his classmates stepped forward and punched him hard in the stomach. Kai cried out in pain,

The bullies did not care. Their laughter filled the room. A teacher's voice came from down the hall,

but it was too late. With tears in his eyes and bruises forming, Kai ran out of the washroom and out of the school, feeling like he could not take the pain any longer.

As he ran along the street, he heard a teacher call,

> "Kai, wait—please, come back!"

But his heart was too heavy, and in his rush, he did not see the red light. A speeding truck hit him, and everything went dark as he fell.
