I Must Kill The Gods

PrisonerOfFantasy
Have you heard of the 'Dark Forest Hypothesis'? It suggests that alien civilizations exist, but they remain silent—ever fearful of malevolent civilizations lurking in the cold, dead void. Salivating for just a sign of life. This apocalyptic nightmare seems to be Earth's reality, where we find ourselves subjugated and silenced. Yet, as if that wasn't cruel enough, calamitous black holes have emerged—ravenous, devouring our world. Within them dwell—once-venerated gods of myth, now twisted into entities hellbent on harvesting countless souls to sustain their existence. Fate is stirring... its instrument is none other than Azario Anagnostopoulos—who MUST KILL THE GODS. Want more? Keep in mind my chapters are on average 5k words(that's a lot!) but I'm uploading it into bits on this site so people don't think there's not much content out. Then check out the author's notes at the end of any chapter. I can't wait to see you there! ;)

King of Knives

“In Varentis, trust is a luxury. Mercy is a weakness. And a knife solves more problems than gold ever could.” Darian Valcoris once had a name that mattered. Now he’s just another body in the pit, bleeding for coin, surrounded by criminals, watched by nobles who forgot his face. Broken, betrayed, and one mistake from death, Darian claws his way through the underworld of Varentis, a mountain metropolis built on secrets, steel, and blood, which serves as one of the three Palatinates of the Empire. But Darian isn’t here to survive. He’s here to take everything. From the gutters to the noble quarter, he’ll rise, through pit fights, heists, street wars, and whispered conspiracies. Alongside a crew of dangerous misfits, Darian plays a game that no one expects him to win. Because they don’t know who he's willing to become. Welcome to the Empire of Newfyre. Welcome to the City of Knives. ------ Tags: Dark Fantasy • Criminal Underworld • Political Intrigue • Antihero Protagonist • Slow-Burn Power Climb • Found Family • Betrayal • Knife Fights • Multiple POVs • Corrupt Nobles • Gritty Worldbuilding • Morally Gray MC • Low-Magic Setting • Empire Politics • Witty Banter • War Brewing ------ Why Read This (From 10Verses): This isn’t just Darian’s story.
