Chapter 1 - Prologue: The Last Thought of a Genius

In a world without magic, Kael Arden was the closest thing to a miracle.

By twenty-four, he had solved energy crises, built revolutionary technologies, and reimagined the future of humanity. Nations praised him. Corporations feared him. Secret organizations marked him.

But Kael never cared about any of that.

All he wanted was her — Aria Linne, the woman who made his world worth saving.

He didn't notice the eyes watching him. The voices in the dark. The slow tightening of the noose around his life.

Until it was too late.

The night he died, the rain poured like judgment. His lab exploded in fire and silence. And his final thought wasn't of vengeance, or regret…

It was her smile.

"I couldn't protect you… I'm sorry, Aria."

But somewhere beyond that fire, beyond the veil of death, someone was watching.

A goddess.

Moved by Kael's mind… and the depth of his love.

"You died too soon, mortal. But your story isn't over."

In a world of monsters and magic, Kael awakens — reborn not as a hero, not as a warrior, but as himself.

With no magic of his own, only his unshakable intellect, he must grow stronger, conquer the impossible, and one day… return.

To save her.

To stop them.

To finish what he started.
