Rise from zero to hero

Divine_Sohwo
Synopsis: Rise from Zero to Hero In a world forever changed by the arrival of the mysterious Red Sun, 99% of humanity awakened supernatural abilities. Cities flourished with newfound powers, and heroes emerged to protect society. But with great power came chaos. Portals opened, unleashing monstrous creatures and demonic invaders, plunging the world into a war for survival. The Awaken, an elite group of warriors, rose to defend humanity, ranked by their strength and armed with advanced sci-fi weapons. They became the last hope against the lurking threats. In the remote village of Ikweghwu, a boy named Eli Rume was born with one of the weakest abilities—a simple light glow. Mocked by his peers and seen as a failure, Eli had no place in a world ruled by strength. But when his village is massacred, and his family is taken from him, Eli embarks on a desperate journey for survival. Guided by the legendary warrior Kazien, and trained by the mysterious Old Man Joseph, Eli pushes past his limits, determined to join the Awaken and find a cure for his dying mother. With only two months to prepare for the brutal Awaken Entrance Exam, he must prove that even the weakest can rise. As Eli steps into the battlefield of the strong, he soon realizes that his so-called "weak" power holds a hidden potential—one that could change the fate of humanity itself. From Zero to Hero—the battle begins.

An Extra’s Tale

“Compassion. What is compassion? Is it strength, or weakness. Is it mercy, or a half a measure? Is it a sign of naivety or experience? Or perhaps, it is one of those things that tread the line of ruin and preservation, it’s true meaning known only to gods. I wonder, what do you think of compassion?” “Compassion? For me, it is like a sword. One which you wield from the blade, not the grip.” ……………. Reshi’s life was not a happy one. His childhood was one of poverty, and a family barely keeping it together. It wasn’t a particularly fun childhood, so he decided to end it early. How? Well, he joined the army, where he was turned from child to weapon, expertly wielded by the republic. There he had met many great people, and he had seen them die also. A terrible life really. One that he wasn’t too sad to say goodbye to. After speaking to an extremely convincing deity, he decided to cash in his death for a new life, a glorious one from one of his favourites new novels. The life of a spoiled, and more importantly, rich young noble. Which he had been given….for all of thirty minutes. He had been placed in the body of a hated antagonist, one that only existed in a flashback backstory. His fate was destine to be pathetic, his end pathetic, loved and remembered by no one. But Reshi had already gone through that once. So this time he was determined to change things. To do something about his shitty fate, so that for the first time in two lives, he could carve out a little corner of peace for himself in the world, and maybe even find some happiness to go along with it.
