Every universe has its own villain. This one has all of them. The Dark Lords. The Witches. The Demon Kings. The Mad Gods. And others too — just as dangerous. They were never meant to exist together. Yet somehow... they all live in the same universe. All furious. All looking for someone to blame. And then there's Kiyo Arasu — born with nothing. No magic. No power. Not a single gift to his name. In this world, if you don't have something... you die. Perhaps... Kiyo wasn't born to live in this universe. He was born to be the reason it finally changes.

Hidden gem — exposure is the bottleneck
Readers who find this story follow it at a high rate; there just aren't enough of them. In our cohort data, near-daily posting lifted the odds of reaching 25 followers from ~0% to 17% — more chapters, shoutout swaps and ads buy the eyeballs this conversion deserves.
Benchmarks: 8,060 active Royal Road stories, percentiles within the 20–49 chapters band, cohort of 2026-07-02. Conversion is measured as followers gained per 1,000 views lifetime.
