A man from Earth awakens in a distant world with his past stripped away, reborn not as a hero—but as a nascent deity.His only connection to the mortal plane being a silent, blood-red stone, he can neither walk nor speak, only listen.When a desperate young man offers a prayer instead of fear, a fragile connection is formed—one that endures across decades.As faith gathers and power stirs, the forgotten god begins to understand his domain: blood, not just as death, but as life, lineage, and existence itself. In a world where even gods can be erased, survival may come down to a single unwavering believer. The first ten chapters may be haphazardly uploaded, but after that they will be uploaded every 4 days.
