The Strongest With Nothing Left

In this alternate universe, Li Vrak never found a reason to live. He never met Arin, Mia, or Elise. He never stayed in that small town. Instead, he wandered, his heart growing colder with each passing day. The emptiness inside him festered, twisting into something far darker.

The world had taken everything from him his family, his master, his comrades, and Airi. If he was to suffer, then so would everyone else.

The day the Living Nightmare turned against the kingdom was the day the world trembled. Cities burned in his wake, his katana tearing through walls, soldiers, and innocence alike. The once-proud kingdom of Aldric, which had stood for centuries, now faced its greatest threat not an army, not a monster, but a single man driven by unrelenting hatred.

King Aldric, his former friend, stood at the castle gates, sword in hand. But he knew he always knew that no blade, no army, no force of man or magic could stop the monster Li Vrak had become.

This was no longer a battle for victory.

It was a battle for survival.
