Cassian was once the ultimate high-school cliché: a "boy with wasted potential" who viewed life through the lazy lens of a video game to cope with a world that felt increasingly hollow. But when a routine schoolyard beating triggers a terrifying vision of someone else's death, Cassian discovers that his "game" is a literal "System" governing reality—and he is the one who created it. Now caught in a shadow war between the Aegis Division, the self-proclaimed keepers of balance, and the lethal rebels of Second Genesis, Cassian is forced to wield a divine gift he cannot control: "Epiphany of Emotion". This power allows him to see the raw memories and agonizing secrets of both friends and foes, but it comes with a heavy price—the more he understands humanity, the more he realizes the Gods view them as a "disease" that must be eradicated. Guided by the sharp-witted agent Evelyn Cross and the chaotic, unkillable Silas Veyne, Cassian must navigate a world of "Cursed Oaths"—dark bargains where god-like strength is bought with one's own memories, identity, or sanity. As he uncovers the truth behind his erased divinity, Cassian faces a chilling realization: in the "War Against Humanity," there is no objective good or evil—there is only control. In a race against time and his own decaying sanity, can the boy who never tried find the will to save a species the creators have already condemned? --------------------------------------------- What you can expect: -A lot of Action/Fighting scenes -Sandwiched between phsycological grimdark and morally ambigous chapters -Trope-breaking book -A bunch of divine gods arguing about stupid things:3
