They survived an alien war. They could not survive each other. In 2055, Earth is still healing from the First Invasion — ten years of fire and ruin brought by the Dark Legion Empire. America rebuilt. America thrived. And then America tore itself apart. Richard Vanguard built his company to defend a nation. Silas Cheng built his to own one. When Octan Corporation's invisible grip on the U.S. government finally crushes it from within, the country splits — East against West, corporation against corporation, soldier against soldier. Caught in the chaos are the men and women who never wanted a war, now forced to fight one. Their stories — alongside Richard Vanguard's desperate campaign to reclaim a fractured nation — form the heart of a conflict that will define what America becomes next. Some wars are started by monsters. This one was started by men who should have known better. 📅 New chapters daily (schedule may vary and due to times where I have low energy due to my Dialysis session) 📖 Planned: 7–8 Volumes (Can add more as I have more stories to tell) ⏰ Volume 2 - The CEO's Gambit and R.O.S.E.S. will be released on April 26, 2026. Giving me time to get ahead for you guys to have something to binge as I make more chapters for Volume 2. Why long? Well, my CKD and me alone telling the story of Valiant series is difficult enough but doesn't mean I will quit. Giving me time will allow me to give you guys the best storyline of Valiant and I don't want to be that author who is "This is good enough." I am not that kind of author especially on my own work. Anyways, thank you for your patience and supporting me on Patreon helps me a lot for an author who don't do much marketing because too scared to attract some bad people. 😋 Love from EmbersArt416.
