I Touched the Wrong Tree and Now I’m Cursed by Fate

Ren Kamizuki was just an ordinary high school student—until the day the sun dimmed, and his world was torn apart.



After witnessing the brutal slaughter of his family and the disappearance of his little sister, Ren awakens in a surreal, divided realm—half light, half shadow. Caught between two impossible choices and haunted by a voice calling him Akira, he touches a cursed tree that floods him with pain, rage... and purpose.



Now, reborn in a world where every soul is tethered to a spiritual tree reflecting their inner self, Ren discovers his own: a towering, obsidian monster known only in legend as The Tree of Chains. Its existence should be impossible. Its power is feared. And at its center lies a single, glowing fruit—his sister’s soul.



Marked by a forgotten destiny and hunted by those who would destroy or control him, Ren must unravel the truth of who—or what—Akira really was. With vengeance in his heart and a war between light and darkness stirring, he has only one goal:



To find his sister. To uncover the past. And to burn down anyone who stands in his way.



But in choosing darkness...

What part of himself did he leave behind?
