"Journey to the West" — Kathar Chronicles

After surviving a massacre that wiped out his entire battalion, Jack Clintson becomes a fugitive in his own land. Armed only with his Seiki— a vital energy that drains his life force with every shot—Jack sets out on a desperate odyssey: to cross the borders of a devastated Ruzarv and reach the Dream of the United West. But the journey is more than just an escape route; it is a migration odyssey. Standing between Jack and his freedom are the Yokaiji (cursed, evolved monsters), a ruthless landscape, and the cruelty of those who exploit the desperation of refugees. Along the way, Jack will discover that the path to the “promised land” demands a sacrifice his humanity may not be able to afford.
